Chapter 244 Why
Lin Xiyin washed her face, and when she came out, she found her phone ringing.
She glanced at it, remained silent for a few seconds, and then answered.
“Xiyin, did you hear that audio? You didn't reply to my message, and I'm a little worried. I've met Pei Muyi a few times, but I'm not sure if that's his voice…”
Lin Xiyin asked her, "How did you see such a message in the group? What group was it? Who posted it?"
Jiang Yufan said, "It's a group I joined at a bar before. There are all sorts of people in it. There are four or five hundred people in that group, and I don't know any of them. I was bored today, so I opened that group and saw this audio. I opened it, and as soon as I saved it, the other person deleted it..."
"What a coincidence..."
"I don't know either!" Jiang Yufan said, "So, that person... is it Pei Muye? Is it really him? But, how could your voices have gotten out?"
Lin Xiyin said, "Yu Fan, please delete that audio file too, and don't let it get out. Thank you."
"No, I've already deleted it," Jiang Yufan said. "Xiyin, I actually know some men like to make these kinds of videos, I didn't expect..."
"No..." Lin Xiyin didn't know how to explain: "Never mind, let's not talk about this anymore."
“Okay,” Jiang Yufan said, “Xiyin, don’t be angry about this.”
"No, that won't happen. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiyin stared blankly at her phone again.
It seems too arbitrary to sentence Pei Muye to death based solely on a recording.
But that person's voice was definitely Pei Muye's.
Lin Xiyin was stunned for a long time before forwarding the audio message Jiang Yufan had sent her to Pei Muye.
Pei Muyi replied more than half an hour later, making a video call.
Lin Xiyin switched to voice call.
After the call connected, Pei Muye asked her, "Why aren't we video chatting?"
"I've turned off the lights," Lin Xiyin said. "If you can't see me, use voice chat."
"I want to see you," Pei Muye said. "Sweetie, go turn on the light."
"I don't want to move," Lin Xiyin asked him. "Did you receive the message I just sent?"
"Received it." Pei Muyi's voice was deep: "Yinyin, I didn't even know when you recorded it? Did you miss me?"
"I didn't say it, but you knew that voice was yours?"
"Who else could it be but me?" Pei Muye chuckled softly. "You secretly recorded this? I didn't know you had this fetish. How about next time... you record a video?"
Lin Xiyin gripped her phone, her knuckles turning white: "Pei Muye, I'm very tired today, I'm not going to talk to you anymore."
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I'm just sleepy."
"Then you go to sleep first," Pei Muye said. "Yinyin, wait for me to go back."
Lin Xiyin couldn't possibly sleep.
Her mind was filled with the sound of Pei Muye saying those things to other women.
She sat up in bed and called Huo Xianyang.
At this point, she seemed to have no idea who she could turn to for help.
She didn't want Chi Tianlin to worry about her relationship with Pei Muye.
They didn't want Qu Jianhang and the others to know.
After thinking it over, she realized that only Xiao Ruoyi could help her.
Unfortunately, Xiao Ruoyi was pregnant.
The only option is to contact Huo Xianyang.
Huo Xianyang's phone rang. He glanced at it and said in surprise, "It's Xiyin calling. Strange, is your phone dead?"
He thought Lin Xiyin was looking for Xiao Ruoyi.
Xiao Ruoyi grabbed his phone directly: "Ruanruan? Did you dial the wrong number? Why are you calling him?"
"Yiyi, you're still awake? I need to talk to Attorney Huo about something. It's about my colleague, and I want to consult with him."
"Oh, I see. But what's wrong with your voice? It sounds like you've been crying."
"It's nothing," Lin Xiyin sniffed, "My rhinitis has flared up these past few days."
"Okay, then you can talk to Huo Xianyang."
Xiao Ruoyi had no doubts whatsoever.
Huo Xianyang took the phone and asked, "Xiyin, what's up?"
Lin Xiyin said, "Make any excuse to leave the bedroom. I have something I want to talk to you about alone."
Huo Xianyang quickly understood and said, "Okay, first tell me whether your colleague is male or female, and what the specifics are?"
He said as he went to see Xiao Ruoyi: "I'm going to the study; I have some things to write down."
Xiao Ruoyi knew his habit and waved her hand, "Go ahead."
Huo Xianyang went to the study and then asked, "Xiyin, what happened?"
Lin Xiyin said, "I received an audio message from a friend..."
She told him everything, and finally said, "I'm very sure that's Pei Muye's voice, and I'm also very sure that I didn't record when I was with him."
"You don't want to suspect him of cheating, but now that there are such rumors, you want me to investigate what's going on, right?"
"Yes," Lin Xiyin said, "please."
Huo Xianyang said, "Give me your friend's contact information. Also, tell me the time and place you recently met with your friend, and what happened during that time."
Lin Xiyin asked in surprise, "It has nothing to do with my friend, does it?"
“It’s just a professional habit,” Huo Xianyang said. “Since you asked me to help you investigate this matter, then everyone is a suspect.”
Lin Xiyin had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll send it to you."
After hanging up the phone, Huo Xianyang called his subordinates to arrange tasks based on the information he had, before returning to his bedroom.
Xiao Ruoyi was almost asleep when she asked groggily, "Is Ruan Ruan alright?"
"It's nothing, it's her colleague's business. Go to sleep, I'll go to sleep too."
Xiao Ruoyi is nearing her due date, and these past few nights she's been experiencing leg cramps, making it difficult for Huo Xianyang to sleep soundly.
Xiao Ruoyi quickly fell asleep in his arms.
But Huo Xianyang was not sleepy.
He was a deeply affectionate man; he only loved Xiao Ruoyi.
But he couldn't guarantee that all men were so devoted.
On the contrary, more often than not, men cannot control their lower bodies.
There are even men who have no moral bottom line and take pleasure in playing with women's bodies.
But Pei Muye... doesn't seem like that kind of person.
Huo Xianyang does not want to make any comments before the matter is fully investigated.
But based on his understanding of Pei Muye, he felt that this matter was very strange.
If Pei Muye is really that kind of person, then why did he wait for Lin Xiyin for three years?
But if not, how do you explain the audio?
He didn't sleep well, and Lin Xiyin, who was involved, barely slept at all.
Hearing the noise outside in the morning, Lin Xiyin got out of bed and came out of the bedroom. Qu Jianhang saw her and frowned; "Ruan Ruan, what's wrong?"
She walked over quickly, took Lin Xiyin's hand, and helped her sit down on the sofa.
"Your eyes are swollen, and you look so tired. Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Lin Xiyin leaned lazily on her shoulder: "Maybe I had some tea and couldn't sleep."
Last night, Qu Jianhang brewed some tea, and she drank two cups.
Qu Jianhang said, "You're just like your dad; you can't sleep after drinking tea. You're not allowed to drink it at night anymore, understand?"
Lin Xiyin's eyes reddened again: "Mom, tell me about Dad."
In fact, Qu Jianhang had already told her this before.
But since Lin Xiyin asked, Qu Jianhang certainly wouldn't refuse.
"Your father is a very gentle and kind person."
"However, many people say he is aloof."
"To be honest, he's only gentle with me."
"I was very happy at that time. Being with him, even if we did nothing, made me happy."
"Ruanruan, I'm with your Uncle Yan now, but no matter what, I don't have the same flutter in my heart that I had with your dad."
"So young, so beautiful, the passion, exuberance, and brilliance of youth are the most beautiful picture in my life."
Qu Jianhang said a lot.
It seems she has endless things to say about that man.
Lin Xiyin couldn't bring herself to ask her mother if all men were capable of cheating.
All of Qu Jianhang's experiences were beautiful.
Her father is gone, but Yan Chengyu still loves her.
Moreover, at this age, after going through so much together, it's impossible for Yan Chengyu to cheat.
As Lin Xiyin listened to her recount those past events, she could sense her happiness.
How rare and precious is the happiness of two people in love being together.
But she...
Is she truly destined to be unhappy?
She didn't know when Huo Xianyang would contact her.
But she will definitely be in pain until she gets definite news.
She didn't want to doubt Pei Muye, but the facts were right in front of her, forcing her to overthink.
As soon as she woke up in the morning, she sent a message to Pei Muye, saying that she would be going to the school laboratory and that she hadn't had time to check her phone all day, asking him not to contact her.
She didn't want to see any news about him.
She didn't know how to face it.
After chatting with Qu Jianhang for a while and having breakfast, she went to school.
Actually, nothing's happening at school today.
She stayed in her office, quietly looking out the window.
Waiting for news from Huo Xianyang.
Huo Xianyang's men were very efficient; they called him in the afternoon.
After listening to what was being said, Huo Xianyang said "thank you for your hard work" and hung up the phone. He then quickly called Lin Xiyin back.
Lin Xiyin quickly answered the phone: "Attorney Huo, is there any news?"
Huo Xianyang said, "There's something wrong with your friend."
Lin Xiyin was taken aback: "What?"
Huo Xianyang said, "My people found out that she bought eavesdropping devices online a month ago."
"tapping?"
Huo Xianyang said, "Based on the information you gave me, I checked the surveillance footage of the restaurant where you ate and found that she put a bugging device in your bag while you were in the restroom."
Lin Xiyin suddenly opened her eyes wide.
She met Jiang Yufan that day, and after returning home, Pei Muye carried her directly into the bedroom.
Pei Muye threw the bag on the ground.
Without needing to say anything else, Lin Xiyin could already guess the truth of the matter based on these facts alone.
But why?
Isn't Jiang Yufan her friend?
Moreover, what benefit would Jiang Yufan gain from doing such a thing?
Huo Xianyang said, "In short, she orchestrated and acted out the whole thing all by herself."
For a moment, Lin Xiyin was speechless.
After a long pause, she finally said, "I understand, thank you."
She hung up the phone and started spacing out again.
Fortunately, the suffocating pain she had felt earlier had disappeared.
Pei Muye did not betray her.
Pei Muye did not call anyone else "baby".
She did not have any relations with anyone else.
It turned out to be Jiang Yufan.
Why?
