Seeing that she couldn't get anything out of Mo Xiaoqing, Jiang Wenjing simply gave up on the idea.

after all…

Xiao Si made a valid point: this matter was originally between the two of them. No matter how much he cared about Yao Yao, he shouldn't have drunk it, disregarding the opinions of the parties involved and prying into their private affairs from others.

"By the way, is Mu Liangliang, who was in the same incident as you last time, still locked up in the police station?"

Li Qian, who had been drinking in the darkness, suddenly spoke up and asked a question.

Mo Xiaoqing blinked innocently as always, nodding as if she understood but not quite.

"Yes, because my situation is different from hers. In the case this morning, she was the direct murderer, and that's a done deal."

"The events that occurred in the three bars that night are still under investigation. In other words, both she and I are suspects. There is currently no direct evidence to prove who the real murderer is."

"So she hasn't been released yet, while I have been released, but all my communication devices have been confiscated."

Li Qian waited until she finished speaking before slowly asking, "It's said that the situation at the time was... quite complicated?"

When she said the last four words, she emphasized them, as if her words contained a hidden meaning that no one else knew.

"I don't know either. Anyway, I heard from them that I was found lying in the box where the dead were..."

When Mo Xiaoqing said this, she still had her usual carefree expression, and shrugged with an innocent and cute look.

Jiang Wenjing felt particularly helpless towards him. In her anger at his lack of self-confidence, she poked his temple with her finger. "Only someone as heartless as you can be schemed against without even knowing who it is!"

She really hated the backstabbing and scheming in this industry, and what she hated even more was that those people actually used such underhanded methods to plot against Xiao Si.

Actually, she had known for a long time that people like them, after graduating from school, would have to intern at their family's company. She just didn't expect that so many things would happen in this last year before she actually joined her family's company.

Moreover, anyone with a modicum of common sense can see that this is a very large circle, or even... specifically set up for either Xiao Si or Mu Liangliang.

Mo Xiaoqing still wore her usual innocent and bewildered expression, her eyes filled with confusion.

"The person who plotted against me was in the shadows, while I was in the light. My every move was naturally known to him. I'm not a god, how could I possibly deduce who wanted to harm me?"

Li Qian's expression was inscrutable. She slowly probed, "Don't you have any clues? Or anyone you suspect...?"

Mo Xiaoqing rested her chin on her hand, pondered for a moment, and then said, "I don't know. If I had to say, I think there should be one."

Li Qian's fingers, which were holding the wine glass, curled slightly before returning to normal.

She asked casually, "Really? I wonder who it is?"

"I think it must be that girl who was expelled by the third brother last time. After all, when the three of them expelled me, they used me as a shield. If I really have to say who has a grudge against me, the only one I can think of is her!"

Li Qian seemed to be casually twirling the wine glass in her hand.

"Is that so?" A strange and odd smile appeared on her bright red lips as she spoke slowly, "But then again, it's true. Often, when seemingly unassuming people really start plotting, they're surprisingly difficult to detect."

Jiang Wenjing looked impatient. "Tsk tsk tsk, what I hate most is the backstabbing and scheming in this circle. Sometimes, the person who tells a big shot isn't the big shot you think he is, but some insignificant little ant!"

Li Qian smiled, unsurprisingly. "However, if we follow this line of investigation, we don't know who might be the one who targeted you!"

The result might be unexpected, or not...

On a whim, Jiang Wenjing asked again, "Speaking of which, this case has been going on for so long, shouldn't we have found some minor evidence in the last few days?"

"I don't know," Mo Xiaoqing tilted her head slightly, smiling innocently. "You know I'm a suspect now, how could they possibly let me handle so many cases?"
