Upon hearing this, Qin Yunie coughed twice guiltily, then said in a pretentious tone, "You'd better leave now, or I'll find out you're bullying ordinary people again!"
The man in black robes replied, "Yes."
He then bowed respectfully to her, turned and left.
Watching helplessly as the master she had hired at great expense left, Shang Mingyue stood there stunned, suddenly at a loss for what to do.
All her confidence came from relying on the master, but now that the master has run away, she suddenly became completely lost.
Shang Mingyue immediately changed her attitude and pleaded, "Ruize, Auntie was framed. I don't know him at all. I don't know anything about him."
Qian Ruizhe straightened up, sneered, and retorted, "You say someone framed you? Then tell me how they framed you? What did they do to you? You said you weren't familiar with each other, but if you weren't familiar, why did you come with him? What were you trying to do?!"
"I, I..."
Shang Mingyue stammered for a long time but couldn't come up with a coherent explanation.
Qian Ruizhe said meaningfully, "Unless... you bumped into each other at the door."
When she heard Qian Ruizhe's last sentence, her eyes lit up instantly. "Yes, I just bumped into him at the door. I really don't know him."
Qian Ruizhe sneered upon hearing this, "You said you bumped into him at the door, but your expression just now betrayed you! Not only do you know each other, but you also rely on him a lot! Let me guess, he's the one who helped you harm my family, isn't he?!"
Shang Mingyue's expression froze. "Rui, Rui Ze, what are you saying..."
He approached step by step, his eyes sharp as knives: "What did I say you didn't know? You keep saying you don't know anything, but we haven't revealed a single word about what happened in our family. How did you find out about what happened in our family? And why did you come to our house in advance? Did you come to apologize or to see if my mother is dead!"
As Qian Ruizhe spoke, his tone grew increasingly harsh, as if every word carried a deep question and condemnation.
As Qian Ruizhe bombarded her with questions, Shang Mingyue's face grew increasingly pale.
Just then, a sharp voice rang out, "What are you doing here at our house?"
Hearing the noise, Mrs. Li was puzzled as to why they hadn't left yet, so she came out of the house. Unexpectedly, she saw Shang Mingyue at the door, and she was immediately furious.
She didn't go to see Shang Mingyue!
Unexpectedly, Shang Mingyue actually came to me of her own accord!
No wonder they've been walking for so long and are still at the door; it turns out they've been held up by this bastard.
Shang Mingyue stared wide-eyed at the unharmed Mrs. Li, her eyes filled with disbelief and shock. She stammered, "You...you're alright?"
Mrs. Li wore a cold smile, a hint of mockery in her eyes, and retorted, "What do you hope will happen to me? What, are you surprised to see I'm still alive?"
After she finished speaking, she turned to Qian Ruizhe, who was standing to the side, and said, "Ruize, call the police immediately!"
Upon hearing Mrs. Li mention calling the police, Shang Mingyue's expression changed instantly. She frantically waved her hands, explaining, "No, that's not it, Yuanyuan, you've misunderstood. I'm a victim too! I didn't know there was anything wrong there until just now. We've known each other for years; you know my character best. Besides, our family's success today is all thanks to your support and help. How could I possibly harm you?"
However, Qian Ruizhe ignored Shang Mingyue's explanation and dialed the police without hesitation.
Qin Yune remembered that all the items the other party had sent had either been smashed or burned, and all the evidence that could prove the other party had committed murder had been destroyed.
Moreover, the metaphysical incident contradicts the science we've learned, and there's no evidence to back it up. Qin Yune is somewhat worried that this matter will ultimately just fizzle out.
Qin Yunie hesitated whether to mention this to Qian Ruizhe, since he didn't know about it and the phone call he made sounded different from what she had imagined.
Qin Yunie was somewhat surprised, and her gaze towards Qian Ruizhe became complicated.
He's still the most ruthless...
Qian Ruizhe noticed her gaze, turned his head and looked over, just in time to meet Qin Yunie's complicated gaze. She must have heard him on the phone.
Qian Ruizhe said calmly, "Brother will teach you a lesson today, to help you enter society."
Qin Yunie: "..."
When Mrs. Li heard Shang Mingyue bring up the past, her face grew increasingly gloomy, and her eyes flashed with anger. She gritted her teeth and said, "You still have the nerve to bring up the past? I must have been blind to lend you money to start your business, only to have it backfire and bring me to my death!"
Upon hearing this, Shang Mingyue seemed to have been struck on a sore spot. A sinister smile appeared on her face, and then she burst into laughter, her laughter filled with mockery and disdain. "Hahaha... This is hilarious! Li Yuan, you are as disgusting as ever!"
Her meticulously maintained face was distorted, and her once beautiful features now appeared exceptionally ugly.
"I was blind to consider you a good friend back then! I was the one who told you I liked Qian Bin first, but then you brought him to me and said he was your boyfriend! You stole him away, lived the life of a rich wife, and even lent us money to start a business like you were doing us a favor. What's stolen must be returned!"
Shang Mingyue's voice was filled with deep resentment and unwillingness, as if the anger that had accumulated over the years had finally found an outlet. Her gaze was fixed on Mrs. Li, her eyes filled with hatred and murderous intent.
Mrs. Li, furious, kept patting her heaving chest, her face grim. "You, so that's what you were thinking! When you said you liked Qian Bin, I had already been dating him for a year! Even though I never explicitly said we were together, many classmates guessed we were. Don't tell me you didn't know! And then you came to me and said you liked him. Your wishful thinking was practically jumping right into my face! That's why I brought him to you so you could finally give up!"
"If I hadn't seen you being bullied at the restaurant, looking so pitiful and helpless like a little dog that'd been kicked twice on the street, and if it weren't for the fact that we were classmates and I felt sorry for you, so I kindly invested in your and your husband's business without asking for anything in return, and yet you want to kill me!"
Shang Mingyue sneered: "If it weren't for you, would I have become like that? You found someone good yourself, but you introduced me to someone who is inferior to Qian Bin in every way. Aren't you just afraid that I will live a better life than you? But how could I possibly follow the path you arranged for me! So I dumped him as soon as I graduated!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yuan's expression turned very strange. "You don't know Li Qi's true identity?"
