Qiwei's feelings were very complicated.
There are many things that don't even require thinking about. The Han family would certainly not let this go easily, and any investigation would definitely lead back to him.
What will he do then? Will he still push the blame onto Shen Ru? Pushing it onto Shen Ru is easy, but will the Han family believe him? Will they just let it go?
Using Shen Ru's life to compensate Han Mingrui is clearly not enough; it might even get her herself caught in the crossfire.
Qiwei became increasingly alarmed the more he thought about it.
Just then, Shen Ru called.
Shen Ru was so flustered when she received their call back then, and Qi Wei is now in a similar state.
"Damn, I thought the Han family had found us so quickly..." Qiwei cursed under his breath, muttering a few words.
After the call connected, it belatedly dawned on him—could it be that Shen Ru was the one who killed Han Mingrui? Damn that crazy woman!
The madwoman spoke: "Chiwei, can you hear me?"
"Ah..." Qiwei responded first.
He really couldn't understand why Shen Ru was calling him at this time. From his perspective, the Han family would definitely not let either him or Shen Ru off the hook.
So why not listen to what Shen Ru has to say first?
"Han Mingrui is dead, you know that, right?" Shen Ru asked directly.
“Hmm,” Chiwei asked again.
Shen Ru's next words were even more straightforward.
“I killed him, but I’m with Qin Yiheng and Jiang Yan now. I think you can figure out that we are both involved in Han Mingrui’s death. If you’re willing, we can cooperate. If not, then you can do whatever you want.”
The implication is that Shen Ru is not worried about Qi Wei complaining to the Han family.
That's easy to understand, since Qin Yiheng is by her side.
but……
Why would you want to cooperate with me?
You could say Qiwei had some self-awareness, or you could say he was judging others by his own petty standards. In any case, from his perspective, his relationship with Qin Yiheng was terrible, and Qin Yiheng's actions were undoubtedly saving him, which was incredibly contradictory.
Has Qin Yiheng become so righteous that he repays evil with kindness?
Anyway, if it were him, he definitely wouldn't have done it; he wouldn't have saved Qin Yiheng.
What's wrong with minding your own business?
"Because this matter is related to Chu Wei, we need your help." Shen Ru didn't shy away from anything and answered the question directly.
"Chu Wei?" Qi Wei thought to himself, "No wonder," and exclaimed in surprise, "How could it possibly be related to him?"
He was involved in this whole affair from beginning to end, and he knew better than anyone who was involved.
The person on the other end of the phone suddenly changed; as soon as he spoke, Qiwei recognized Qin Yiheng's voice.
“When I say I have a relationship with him, then I mean I do.”
Qin Yiheng's voice was unusually confident, as if he had obtained some substantial evidence.
These words made Qiwei, who had been so confident just moments before, suddenly less certain.
Could it be that I've been caught in some trap without even realizing it?
"You have one hour to think it over." Qin Yiheng hung up the phone without giving Qiwei a chance to say anything more.
Then he instructed Shen Ru: "You stay here and don't go anywhere. When he calls back, tell him what I told you to say."
It seems that Qiwei will definitely call back.
Shen Ru nodded somewhat blankly.
She found it strange that she hadn't noticed Qin Yiheng's overwhelming presence before, and that she had even fantasized about dealing with him back then.
Everyone says Qin Yiheng is arrogant, but actually, it's them who are truly arrogant.
As Shen Ru thought this, she suddenly felt extremely envious of Jiang Yan.
Having a fiancé like this must be such a reassuring thing...
Old Bai's slightly flustered voice interrupted Shen Ru's thoughts: "The Han family has come to knock on the door. It's Han Mingzhi, the second young master of the Han family, who brought his men."
Qin Yiheng nodded to indicate that he understood, then glanced at Leopard and Zhou Xu, indicating that the two of them could accompany him out.
Luo Jinxiu waited for a long time but didn't see her, so she couldn't help but say, "I want to go out too."
"Never mind, you and the Luo family..."
"Why do you say it's fine for me? The butler doesn't respect me, the young lady. If I do nothing, won't he control everything even more?"
Luo Jinxiu wouldn't easily listen to Qin Yiheng's words, so she interrupted him directly with a tough attitude, and she also had a reason to be so assertive.
"Don't forget, the gun that killed Han Mingrui belongs to the Luo family... The Luo family's guns and bullets all have special markings."
The logo was a distorted "L", originally intended to distinguish it.
The Han family shouldn't be unaware of even this.
From then on, Qin Yiheng said nothing more.
Outside the door, Han Mingzhi stood under the midday sun, making a grand entrance. Someone was holding an umbrella for him. When he saw people coming out of the villa, he didn't rush to speak, but simply looked them over one by one.
He had never met Qin Yiheng in person, and he had only glanced at the videos and photos online. But when Qin Yiheng actually stood in front of him, he recognized him at a glance; he was just too different.
Qin Yiheng stood in the center of the crowd, tall and strong, exuding an imposing aura. However, upon closer inspection, one would find that he was no different from an ordinary person.
This piqued Han Mingzhi's interest.
There was a woman standing next to him.
Han Mingzhi initially thought it was Qin Yiheng's fiancée, Jiang Yan, but upon closer inspection of the woman's demeanor, he realized something was amiss.
Although the woman wasn't dressed in anything too extravagant, she looked very proper overall and exuded an air of pride that became more and more apparent the more you looked at her. This was definitely not the kind of demeanor a livestreamer should have.
Therefore, she must be—Luo Jinxiu.
This was also the first time Han Mingzhi had met the eldest daughter of the Luo family, and he couldn't help but sigh, "The eldest daughter is truly extraordinary."
He had already made up his mind.
And... I didn't expect them to actually be together, this is interesting.
As for the other two men next to Qin Yiheng, Han Mingzhi looked at them for a while but couldn't figure out who they were. They seemed to be gangsters, probably some low-level friends of Qin Yiheng, so Han Mingzhi didn't pay them any mind.
After looking at each other for a moment, Han Mingzhi spoke first. He didn't want to exchange pleasantries and asked directly, "Is Shen Ru here with you?"
He paused, but didn't get a reply. He wasn't angry and continued, "Hand over Shen Ru, and I can let you people go for now."
Qin Yiheng shook his finger: "Impossible."
