At this moment, Manager Liu was working overtime to help Tian Jun investigate what happened last night—in essence, he and Lin Xinwan were investigating the same thing, but unfortunately, he didn't know who Lin Xinwan was!

After hanging up the phone, the security guard, with a dark expression, escorted Lin Xinwan out. Lin Xinwan, humiliated, had no choice but to return to the company. Upon seeing Tang Zhi, she tried to bring up the matter of checking the nightclub's surveillance footage in a tactful manner.

Tang Zhi was annoyed because Chen Nian had blocked him, so he just mumbled "hmm".

Seeing this, Lin Xinwan felt that Tang Zhi hadn't taken the matter seriously at all, and she gritted her teeth in hatred—she had only slept with someone once, and Tang Zhi's attitude towards her had immediately made a 180-degree turn. This change was too drastic! These men!

However, she suppressed the hatred in her heart and cried pitifully on the surface, saying, "Mr. Tang, I'm afraid I'll have to put in a lot of effort for this. I really want to know who sent me to that strange man's room."

She had clearly called Tang Zhi and was determined to lock herself in the bathroom until Tang Zhi arrived, so that nothing would likely happen that went against her wishes.

But she was led out of the restroom by someone. At that time, she was still somewhat conscious and remembered that it was a woman. Come to think of it, nine out of ten people who entered the women's restroom with her were women! It's just a pity she couldn't remember what that woman looked like.

She suspected that the woman was Chen Nian.

Hearing her words, Tang Zhi, who was already annoyed, glanced at her and said, "I know, I'll remember to tell Manager Liu. You can go back to work now!" His expression was impatient.

He felt that he might have shown Lin Xinwan too much kindness recently, which was why she dared to stand here openly and make demands of him.

At this moment, he had completely forgotten that just two days ago, when Lin Xinwan heard him mention that he wanted to go to the movies with his girlfriend and pitifully said that she had no one to go to the movies with, he had "enthusiastically" bought three tickets for the movie theater and taken Lin Xinwan to the movies with him!

How ironic! Lin Xinwan thought bitterly.

"President Tang, do you hate me?" Lin Xinwan burst into tears instantly, looking pitiful.

Tang Zhi was startled by what he saw. He quickly got up from his executive chair, went to Lin Xinwan, took out a tissue to wipe her tears, and said, "How could that be? Why would you think that? I just had a lot of unpleasantness with Chen Nian recently, and I'm in a bad mood. It wasn't directed at you."

Lin Xinwan sobbed, her voice soft as she asked, "But Mr. Tang, why was Sister Chen Nian there last night too?"

Tang Zhi said helplessly, "After you called me, I had a feeling something was going to happen, so I drove very fast and overtook her car. She must have seen it and followed me."

Lin Xinwan shook her head and said, "I don't believe it. She always drives carefully, slower than most people. How could she possibly keep up with you? Could it be that last night, after you received my call, you were leisurely driving and waiting for her to catch up? No wonder you came so late, I... sob..."

Tang Zhi was taken aback when she mentioned that Chen Nian drove slowly. He thought to himself: That's right, he drove so fast last night, how could Chen Nian possibly keep up?

Hearing Lin Xinwan's next words, he quickly explained, "No, after I answered your call, I rushed to Brilliant Shelly as fast as I could. It only took me about forty minutes to get there from my villa. But how did Chen Nian keep up with me? I... I don't know either. Maybe she can drive fast, but she just doesn't usually drive!"

Lin Xinwan: "President Tang, last night I realized something was wrong, so I quickly locked myself in the women's restroom while I was still sober. But a woman came in and took me out; that woman led me to that strange man's room..."

Tang Zhi said in surprise, "But last night in the elevator, you said you only remembered talking business with President Wu."

“Yes,” Lin Xinwan nodded, tears streaming down her face. “Sister Chen Nian was there last night too, so I didn’t dare say much.”

Tang Zhi was taken aback and asked, "Why?"

Lin Xinwan: "I know it's wrong of me to think like this. Maybe I'm just overthinking it, or maybe I'm remembering it wrong. I just feel that woman is...is..."

Tang Zhi frowned and asked, "You think it's Chen Nian?"

Lin Xinwan nodded.

“That’s impossible,” Tang Zhi said.

Lin Xinwan: "How can you be so sure?"

Tang Zhi: "The timing is wrong. She was in my villa just minutes before you called me."

Lin Xinwan recalled, "But, from the time I finished calling you until I was taken out of the bathroom, there were about ten minutes in between. Adding the few minutes you mentioned, there were almost twenty minutes between her leaving the villa and me being taken out of the bathroom!"

Tang Zhi said irritably, "Twenty minutes? How could you possibly get from my villa to Brilliant Shelly in twenty minutes?" He rushed for over forty minutes. Besides, he personally saw Chen Nian driving when he overtook her on the road near his villa last night.

But who else but Chen Nian would want to harm me like this? Lin Xinwan thought to herself, this whole thing must have been premeditated, it was a scheme.

But she always knew how to read people's expressions, so she naturally wouldn't say anything to annoy Tang Zhi. She just said heartbrokenly, "Mr. Tang, I also think I must have misremembered. It couldn't have been Sister Chen Nian. You saw that she even helped me get compensation later. So I must check the surveillance footage from last night to see who really harmed me."

Tang Zhi's eyelids twitched twice at the mention of compensation. It would have been better if Lin Xinwan hadn't brought it up, but now that she had, Tang Zhi found it truly unexpected that Chen Nian would actually seek compensation for Lin Xinwan, given Chen Nian's recent attitude towards her!

So, could this really be related to Chen Nian?

Tang Zhi had a suspicion in his heart. Although he thought that it was unlikely that Chen Nian had separated from him last night, he still felt that Chen Nian's behavior was a bit abnormal. He immediately grabbed his coat and said, "Let's go and go find Manager Liu to check the surveillance footage now."

To their dismay, Tang Zhi's intervention did lead them to Manager Liu, but Manager Liu said that he had been instructed by his superiors not to leak this information.

As for the woman who took Lin Xinwan from the bathroom and escorted her to the guest room last night, Manager Liu clearly knew who she was, but he refused to say. When asked, he simply replied: "I was instructed from above not to divulge a single word."

Lin Xinwan knew that someone higher up was suppressing this matter. She could only tentatively ask, "Then, could you tell me if the woman who rode the elevator with us last night is related to this?"
