Chapter 572 Doubts
"What does my cousin know?" Nie Xiao didn't understand what Nie Yao meant and asked in confusion.
"It's nothing. Since you were drugged back then, you were framed by someone. The evidence may have disappeared over time, but that doesn't mean the person behind it hasn't continued to operate..."
Nie Yao smiled faintly and said to Nie Xiao in a deep voice, "Nie Xiao, I will help you investigate this matter! You must be careful about Nie Jinxi, but don't forget, you must also be careful about Ji Minghuan!"
Nie Xiao was stunned for a moment, as if he had guessed something. He asked doubtfully, "Cousin, do you suspect them?"
"I don't have any evidence, but at least I'm sure Ji Minghuan is no good!" Nie Yao patted Nie Xiao's arm and urged him in a low voice, "Go get some rest!"
After she said this, she called the butler and asked him to take Nie Xiao to the guest room to rest.
Nie Yao also slowly went upstairs and returned to the living room.
Li Jinxing had already arranged for Professor Fred to rest and took a hot shower. He saw that Nie Yao had returned to the bedroom and was sitting in front of the dressing table with a frown on her face.
"Are you done talking?" Li Jinxing slowly walked behind her, lowered his head and asked with a soft smile.
Nie Yao nodded in response.
"What did you two talk about?" Li Jinxing saw that she looked calm, so he reached out and stroked her brow, asking with concern, "Why are you frowning so tightly? Did your cousin say something stupid?"
"No..." Nie Yao forced a smile, shook her head, and replied in a low voice: "We were just chatting for a while, and then he talked about the past..."
"Something from the past?" Li Jinxing frowned slightly and asked thoughtfully, "Could it be that scandalous incident he committed back then?"
Nie Yao was stunned for a moment, then looked up at him in surprise: "How did you know it was that incident?"
"What else could make you look like this?" Li Jinxing stroked her hair with amusement, then turned to the coffee table beside him, poured a cup of warm water, and handed it to Nie Yao.
Nie Yao took the water cup and took a sip, then whispered, "I originally thought that Nie Xiao was some kind of playboy. Now it seems I was wrong. He's not what I thought..."
"Maybe he was just acting on purpose!"
Li Jinxing took a sip of Nie Yao's glass of water and said with a nonchalant smile, "Don't you think it's strange that he suddenly told you this? It was your first meeting, so you didn't have much of a brother-sister relationship..."
"It seems that Lin Anqi said something to him, which aroused his doubts..."
Nie Yao nodded and sighed softly, "I don't know why, but I don't think he's lying! He was a top student back then. There's no reason for him to mess around like this and ruin his future. Li Jinxing, don't you find that strange?"
"I don't know, I haven't investigated it carefully..." Li Jinxing shrugged and explained with a smile: "I've only heard a little bit about those rumors about him!"
Seeing that Nie Yao was still silent, he patted her shoulder again and said softly, "But if you want to check, I can ask Li Qin to help. Maybe he can find some clues!"
"Li Jinxing, thank you..." Nie Yao nodded and thanked him with a smile.
"Are you thanking me on behalf of your cousin?" Li Jinxing narrowed his eyes, lifted her chin, and asked in a gloomy tone, "You only met once, and he has earned your trust?"
