"Gu Qian cheated on me."

Are you really that sure? Assistant Zhang looked at Xia Wan and felt that she had broken even more. How could she not break? So many things happened in one day. If this had happened to someone else, they probably would have fainted by now.

"Maybe he's a friend. Let's not jump to conclusions. Let's wait for the investigation results."

Xia Wan's expression was numb. She had witnessed Gu Qian's tenderness towards that child. She knew how a father's expression should be when he loved his child. The way Gu Qian looked at that child was exactly the same as how Xia Qingshan looked at her.

A person's body language and facial expressions cannot lie. If there were no connection, that woman would not have leaned against Gu Qian's chest.

They really looked like a family of three, while she herself seemed more like an unwanted third party.

Tears streamed down her cheeks, stinging with pain. She covered her face, her eyes glazed over, as if half her soul had been ripped away.

It was already dark, and Gu Qian, still unaware of what had happened, called Xia Wan to ask when she would be home, saying that his soup was ready.

Xia Wan gripped her phone tightly: "I'll be home late tonight, I'm working overtime."

Gu Qian noticed that Xia Wan's tone was different from usual and assumed she was in a bad mood because she had been working overtime. "You're already back at the Xia family home, why are you still going to work? Why don't you quit? It hurts me to see you working so hard..."

How good must someone's acting be to say such things without batting an eye? If she hadn't seen that scene in the parking lot, she would have really thought that Gu Qian still loved her and cared about her.

"I understand. You guys eat first, no need to wait for me."

"What about Uncle Xia?"

Xia Wan looked in the direction of the ICU room, and hung up the phone without saying a word.

As soon as I hung up the phone, Assistant Zhang came over with a document: "Miss, the investigation results are in."

Wow, it's so fast! I thought it would take longer.

Assistant Zhang had already read it beforehand, and even he, as an observer, was furious, let alone Xia Wan.

"Give it to me." Xia Wan took the documents from Assistant Zhang; they contained pictures, text, and other evidence.

Su Tian, ​​Gu Qian's former assistant, can often be seen in leaked photos of Gu Qian online.

No wonder Su Tian looked familiar to her. Xia Wan continued to look through the pages. They had hooked up a year ago. After that, Su Tian got pregnant and resigned. She only reconnected with Gu Qian three months ago, when Su Tian was about to give birth.

While she was discussing marriage with Gu Qian, Gu Qian secretly contacted Su Tian. He not only met with her, but also arranged a hospital for her, found her a house, accompanied her to see a doctor, and transferred ten million yuan to her. He did everything meticulously.

At this moment, Xia Wan finally understood the pain that Zhuang Yan had once endured—betrayal.

That's right, it was betrayal. Betrayal was what she hated most in her life. She didn't want the people around her to betray her, but she betrayed and hurt Zhuang Yan time and time again.

Now that the boomerang has landed on her, she knows what it feels like. There is no true empathy unless you experience it yourself.

Gu Qian, her husband, caused her father to become paralyzed. He betrayed her and had an illegitimate child when he married her. On the day they registered their marriage, his illegitimate child was born in a nearby hospital. How disgusting! How could such a disgusting thing happen in the world?

Xia Wan felt so nauseous that she vomited, letting out a dry heave. She hadn't eaten anything, so all she vomited was acidic water, which burned her throat and made her eyes red-rimmed with dense red blood vessels in the whites of her eyes. Tears fell directly onto the floor.

Assistant Zhang quickly pulled out some tissues for her and patted her back. There was no point in saying anything comforting now; all he could do was stay quietly by her side.

Xia Wan is still too young. At such a young age, she has already experienced several ups and downs in her life: her wedding was ruined, her uncle went to jail, her husband cheated on her, her father became seriously ill, and now the Xia family is going bankrupt...

The Xia family has gone bankrupt. Where should Xia Wan, the eldest daughter, go? Where can she find refuge?

Assistant Zhang never expected the Xia family to be able to come back to life. Even if Xia Wan sells her body and chooses to marry a rich man, it still depends on whether anyone dares to marry her.

At 8:50 a.m., Xia Qingshan's condition stabilized and he is now out of danger.

Xia Wan reported the case to the police, who went directly to Xia's house and took Gu Qian away, along with the home's surveillance footage and the soup that had just been served.

In a criminal case, everyone has to cooperate with the investigation. The police interrogated everyone one by one. The housekeeper, unaware of what was happening, hurriedly called Xia Wan.

The first thing she said was, "Miss, something terrible has happened! Mr. Gu has been taken away by the police. You need to come back right away."

"I called the police."

The butler was stunned.

When the police knocked on the door, Gu Qian went to open it. Because he had done something wrong, he felt guilty and broke out in a cold sweat as soon as he saw the police. His eyes darted around, and any professional could tell at a glance that he had a problem.

The police who arrested the Xia family were the same group that took away Zhuang Zhongming last time. They were quite familiar with Gu Qian and his group, and since it was almost the end of the year, they were giving them performance bonuses.

"Gu Qian, you are suspected of poisoning. Please come with us." In Gu Qian's shocked and terrified state, the police took out their badges and led him into the car.

Gu Qian's heart skipped a beat, his face turned ashen, and he forced a dry laugh, struggling to say, "Officer, is there some misunderstanding? How could I poison someone? You've arrested the wrong person."

"Is there any misunderstanding? Once the results are out, don't worry. We won't wrong the good people, and we won't let the bad people go unpunished. We're just investigating; we haven't charged you yet. You just need to come with us and assist with our investigation. If there are no problems, we'll let you go home as soon as possible." Having said all that, Gu Qian had no choice but to comply. Struggling too much would only arouse suspicion.

Gu Qian was unsure of himself and hesitated for two seconds before the police pushed him into the car. His heart was pounding and his back was covered in cold sweat.

He knew better than anyone whether a crime had been committed.

He drugged Xia Qingshan, secretly adding Chinese medicine to the soup he brewed every day. It would be fine for normal people, but it would worsen the condition of people with high blood pressure. If anything was found, he would deny it, since the soup contained only normal tonics that he could usually find.

Besides adding Chinese medicine to the tonic soup, he also secretly exchanged the medicine in Xia Qingshan's medicine bottle.

He was timid and afraid that Xia Qingshan would suspect him, so he exchanged less, finishing only half a bottle.

He had timed it perfectly. The half-bottle of medicine would be finished before he left the Xia family. Once he left, Xia Qingshan's condition would worsen and he would suffer a high blood pressure attack. At that time, it would be unlikely that the medication would be detected in his blood. Moreover, the medication he switched to was one that was commonly kept at home.

Gu Qian was quite careful, but he didn't expect Xia Qingshan to fall ill at this time. As soon as he entered the hospital, he was diagnosed with a blood problem.

Gu Qian felt a chill in his heart and was restless in the car. The medicine bottle on Xia Qingshan's body was taken to collect fingerprints, and his fingerprints were found on the bottle. The soup today also contained medicine as usual. The evidence was complete.
