Chapter 133 Breaking News
"Okay, then you should eat something. I see you didn't eat anything just now, not even a glass of champagne..." Yu Wanqing didn't force her, but suggested with a smile.
"My stomach hasn't been feeling well lately, and I drove here by myself, so I can't drink champagne!"
Nie Yao answered honestly, and Yu Wanqing could only put the champagne aside and ask someone to bring another glass of lemonade.
"Look, they're having so much fun!" Yu Wanqing took a sip of champagne and sighed softly as she watched Nie Jinxi, Lin Anqi and others happily playing in the swimming pool.
Nie Yao smiled noncommittally, turned her head to look at her cousin, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Cousin, actually, I came here today to ask you about my mother..."
"Are you talking about Aunt?" Yu Wanqing raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile, "What do you want to ask Aunt?"
"I want to know what happened to my mother back then?" Nie Yao asked straight to the point, shocking Yu Wanqing so much that she choked on a mouthful of champagne and coughed several times in succession.
"Didn't your father tell you?" Yu Wanqing finally took a breath and asked Nie Yao.
Nie Yao sighed softly, shook her head, and replied, "He always seems a little sad when he mentions his mother, so I didn't dare ask any more questions..."
"Actually, after you disappeared, Auntie was very sad. Later, when she heard that you were murdered, she became even more confused. As a result, she had a car accident and both she and her car were thrown into the river. By the time they pulled us out, it was too late..."
Nie Yao's expression darkened when she heard this, and she whispered, "So my mother got into trouble because of me..."
"You can't say that!" Yu Wanqing saw her gloomy expression and quickly patted her shoulder to comfort her, "Don't blame yourself. This happened a long time ago. Today is my birthday, so let's not talk about such sad things!"
"Cousin, I'm so sorry..." Nie Yao also mentioned this matter to herself, apologizing for disturbing her cousin's birthday mood.
"Nothing. I'll go upstairs and change into a swimsuit. If you don't want to play with them, just find a place to sit!" Yu Wanqing shook her head and smiled faintly, then turned and left with the champagne.
Nie Yao glanced at the people having fun in the swimming pool, then returned to the living room, found a quiet place to sit down, and started looking through the latest news on her phone.
"Miss Nie, your lemon juice--" At this moment, a maid put the lemon juice next to her hand and reminded her in a low voice.
Nie Yao thanked him politely without even looking up, her attention completely drawn to the piece of news she had just seen.
"There's been new progress in the theft of investor Dickson's lakefront villa. A suspected fugitive, pursued by police, was found dead in an old apartment building at 6 p.m. When police found him, he was foaming at the mouth and his body was stiff. He likely died of poisoning..."
When Nie Yao read the news, her brows slowly furrowed, and she subconsciously sat up straight and held her phone tightly.
She looked back and confirmed several times, and saw that the news was released by an official news account, so it should not be a rumor.
Nie Yao still remembered the possible route of the thieves that she had pointed out to Li Jinxing before, and she just hoped that Li Jinxing could find the gang as soon as possible. However, she didn't expect that one of the thieves had died of poisoning after being found by the police with great difficulty!
