As Qin Wei's car drove away, he glanced at the woman not far away in the rearview mirror. She raised her hand to touch the tip of her nose, her disgust so genuine and earnest—it was quite a sight.

As Chen Dongyang drove, he said, "I've sorted things out with the boss. Now, shall we head to the courthouse?"

Qin Wei snapped out of his daze and looked away. "Get me all the information on that Xia Tian guy."

Chen Dongyang raised an eyebrow slightly. "Without a specific reason, we have no right to pry into other people's privacy."

Qin Wei put his hands under his neck, took off his shoes, and put his long legs on the back seat, lying down directly on it. "That girl was not very polite to me."

"That's probably not a valid reason for you to investigate others," Chen Dongyang said with a smile, declining the offer.

"Aren't you afraid she'll try to kill me?"

"I really didn't see that coming."

Qin Wei: "..."

Chen Dongyang is a good person in every way, except that he is sometimes too rigid, which is not a good thing.

"You really can't help me investigate?" Qin Wei asked again.

"Master Qin, the people I need to investigate all have to be documented," Chen Dongyang said seriously. "Even if the boss came to investigate, I would still have to go through this process. Aren't you making things difficult for me?"

Qin Wei swung his leg and sighed again, wondering how Jin Yining, that cunning and roguish old fox, could have produced such an old-fashioned person.

"Mr. Qin, I have a suggestion. Can't Old Master Qin investigate as well?"

Qin Wei glanced at him. "How much did the old man pay you to act as a mediator?"

Chen Dongyang chuckled softly without saying a word, naturally indicating that he had no money.

When Shang Ning arrived, Jin Yining did not get out of the car because of her special status, and the crew was still rushing to finish the plot, so they only dropped Shang Ning off at the agreed location and then went back.

"I'm going back to Hengdian first. Sister Yang will handle the lawsuit with you. Remember to call me if anything happens."

Shang Ning got out of the car and closed the door. He didn't expect Jin Yining to leave now, so he must have come back to deal with this matter.

Clearly, even if Chen Dongyang were to do this, he could do it well, since he has arranged all the steps.

Shang Ning looked back at the person who had rolled down the car window, feeling a mix of emotions she couldn't quite describe.

It felt like Jin Yining came back specifically for her.

But I also feel that saying it might be narcissistic.

"Then, then drive carefully on your way back." Shang Ning touched the back of her neck with one hand; it was slightly hot, and she didn't know why.

"Remember to get your wound treated."

Shang Ning nodded, watching Jin Yining drive away, leaving with a carefree air.

Shang Ning slightly pursed her lips, and when she turned around, Xia Tian and Zhao Xinxin had already brought the little girl over.

Xia Tian frowned as he looked at her neck. "Are you injured?"

"Ning Xiaokong, are you injured?" Zhao Xinxin exclaimed, releasing Xingren and looking at her scabbed neck.

Shang Ning raised her hand and touched her neck. "It's nothing, just a minor injury."

As she spoke, she looked at the timid little almond. The girl looked quite different from the one in the photo, and she seemed to be trembling, perhaps from fear.

“If a minor is instigated to commit a crime, they can be exempted from punishment if they voluntarily surrender themselves,” Shang Ning said, looking at the little girl. “Tomorrow is the court date. Are you sure you want to take me to court?”

"I... I didn't wrong you." Xiao Xingren thought of Lin Tingyu and still denied it. "You've already divorced Jin Yining, but you're still using Jin Yining to gain popularity in your live streams. You're not a good person to begin with."

Shang Ning rubbed her nose. "So, you're saying you're not going to talk about it? Lin Tingyu is barely able to protect herself. Do you think she'll still care about you if something really happens to you?"
