Chapter 168 Song Yanzhi suspects his own assistant!
"good."
Nan Weiwei immediately stood up and went out. Downstairs, she unexpectedly ran into Shen Yan, who had just come out as well. Seeing the red mark on his face, she inexplicably wanted to laugh, unable to suppress the smile.
He deserved it; who told him to force others?
Shen Yan's expression darkened as he looked at her gloating. "What are you laughing at?"
"You deserve to be laughed at. Who told you to bully my sister? Humph." She snorted and walked outside.
"Where are you going this time?" Shen Yan asked coldly.
"Let's go to the coffee shop where my sister works."
"I'll go, you can go back." He was prepared to investigate personally as an apology to Nan Xia. After calming down, he realized it was his fault for forcing her.
She had just broken up with Song Yanzhi, so it's normal that she still had feelings for that man, since they had only just started dating.
"Do you know which coffee shop it is? So eager, are you still not giving up?" Nan Weiwei couldn't stand his eagerness. He had just been slapped, and he wasn't even angry?
And she's so eager to please her older sister...
"Which coffee shop?" He didn't answer her question after that; he wasn't about to give up so easily.
"Why should I tell you?" Nan Weiwei didn't want him to fawn over her, so she said coldly and left. Shen Yan went over and pulled her into his car.
"If I take you there, what if someone destroys the surveillance footage while you slowly stroll over? Where exactly is it?"
She glanced at him. "Nanxi Road, Peninsula Cafe."

Inside the law firm.
Song Yanzhi's client had just left when he picked up his phone and glanced at it. Half an hour earlier, an unknown number had sent him a message.
He only opened it now, and after seeing the photo, a look of worry immediately appeared on his face. In the photo, Nan Xia was being embraced by a man.
Who is that man? Why is he holding her?
He immediately called the woman, but no one answered for a long time. He hung up and immediately dialed the number that sent the photos.
The call was answered quickly, and a strange man's voice came through: "Hello, who is it?"
"You sent me a photo half an hour ago. Who are you? Why did you send me the photo?" Song Yanzhi asked.
“Oh, a woman gave me five hundred dollars and asked me to send you the photos,” the man said.
"What kind of woman?" His tone deepened.
"Why should I tell you?" the man asked with a smile. Why should he tell him if he doesn't get something in return?
"I'll give you five thousand, describe it to me in more detail, okay?" Song Yanzhi asked on speakerphone as he lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and exhaled puffs of smoke.
"Of course, no problem! That woman is quite young and pretty, with short hair, and wearing a black business suit." The man's eyes lit up when he heard about the five thousand yuan.
"No other details? These few words don't seem worth five thousand, do they?" Song Yanzhi said coldly.
The man grew anxious, then thought carefully for a moment and immediately added, "She has a small black mole at the corner of her left eye!"
A small black mole at the corner of his left eye? Short hair? Business attire? Song Yanzhi couldn't help but feel that he was describing his assistant, Lin Yi!
What kind of short hair is it?
"Shoulder-length black hair," the man replied.
"I'll take a picture and send it to you in a bit, then you can identify it." Song Yanzhi said coldly before hanging up the phone. He pressed the landline button, and shortly after, Lin Yi walked in and respectfully asked:
"Song Lu, is there anything you need me to do?"
"Where did you go this morning? Why are you back so late?" he asked.
"I wasn't slacking off, it's just that it was hard to catch the bus, so I came back late," she explained nervously. Song Yanzhi glanced at the phone lying upright next to the computer and dismissed her:
"Alright, go back to work."
"Yes." Lin Yi responded with a puzzled look, then glanced at him again. He must have seen the photo she gave him, right? Why is he so calm?
He asked me why I came back so late, wondering if he suspected that I had taken the photo without my consent.
Lin Yi immediately tensed up, silently thinking of a solution, and went outside.
Song Yanzhi picked up his phone, took a screenshot of her from the video he had just taken, and sent it to the stranger, asking if it was this woman.
Not long after, the other party replied: "It's her!"
Song Yanzhi's expression darkened. Was this photo really taken secretly by Lin Yi? Then she must have seen what happened between Nan Xia and that man, right?
Lin Yi pressed the landline again, and just as she returned to her desk, she received another call from him, asking her to come over.
She frowned. What exactly was wrong with Song Lu?
Then I went to his office—
In the apartment.
Nanxia had just gotten out of the bathtub. The effects of the medicine had worn off, and apart from feeling a little weak, she was fine.
She quickly changed into a business suit. Hearing the sound of a keypad being entered at the door, she went out and saw that Chen Yan had actually arrived. She coldly shifted her gaze away from him and asked her sister:
"Have you gotten the surveillance video yet?"
Nan shook her head slightly. "The staff there said that their surveillance cameras have been broken for a long time and have never been repaired."
Nan Xia frowned. Could they really not find that treacherous villain? Who could it be? So free this early in the morning!
"I'm going to the law firm first. We'll talk about this later." As she passed Shen Yan, he suddenly grabbed her arm and apologized.
"I'm sorry about what happened earlier. I acted impulsively. I won't do it again. Please don't be angry anymore, okay?"
"Let me calm down before we talk," Nan Xia said, then removed his hand and left.
Weiwei crossed her arms and looked at him, watching him get embarrassed again, and couldn't help but laugh—was her sister just pretending to be in a relationship with Lawyer Song to spite him?
When Shen Yan turned around, he saw a smile on her face. He frowned. Was she gloating again?
“Even if I can’t marry your sister, I won’t marry you,” he said in a deep voice.
Nan Weiwei felt uncomfortable listening to his words and snorted coldly, "Does it make it sound like I can't live without you? Are there no other men in the world?"
"Then why do you want me to take responsibility?"
"I just don't want you to be my brother-in-law. As long as you don't become my brother-in-law, I won't make you take responsibility. If you want to be my brother-in-law, you have to take responsibility for me!" Weiwei said coldly to him.
"..." Shen Yan frowned as he looked at her. Was she just here to cause trouble on purpose?

Inside the law firm.
Lin Yi knocked on his office door again and entered. She walked to his desk and asked in a quiet and obedient manner, "Lawyer Song, is there anything you need me to do?"
"This photo was sent to me by a stranger's phone, wasn't it?" He opened the photo and looked at her intently as he asked.
Lin Yi's mind raced. He really did suspect me. Could it be that he had already confirmed with that stranger?
"Yes, it was me..." She admitted it directly, since he had no evidence to prove that she had framed Nanxia!
"Tell me, what exactly happened?" Song Yanzhi asked in a deep voice.
