Xiang Yang touched his nose, feeling guilty, and said, "Boss, Zhan Yin really did get into trouble. After all, you were poisoned because you ate the bird's nest he gave you..."
Qiao Wanwan was taken aback. Was Zhan Jingting making things difficult for Zhan Yin because of her?
Why?
"So Zhan Jingting did this for me?"
Xiang Yang immediately realized he had said the wrong thing, but not knowing how to take it back, he hurriedly said, "Anyway, I heard that Zhan Yin has been taken into custody, and I don't know anything else!"
Qiao Wanwan went to the bedside table to get her phone. "No, I need to call Zhan Jingting and ask him what's going on!"
"Boss, what do you want to ask?"
"Zhan Yin would never poison me; I can't let anything happen to him."
"But your relationship with Zhan Jingting is very sensitive right now, so it's not a good idea to make a phone call, is it?"
Qiao Wanwan hesitated for a moment, but still insisted, "I have other things to ask about."
Xiang Yang didn't object, "Alright then."
Qiao Wanwan dialed the number, and it was quickly answered. A deep, cold voice came through the phone, "What is it now?"
Qiao Wanwan trembled involuntarily, but still asked, "You've made things difficult for Zhan Yin? For my sake? Zhan Jingting, what exactly do you mean?"
"What could I possibly mean?" the man said with a faint smile. "You don't actually think I'm avenging you, do you? Qiao Wanwan, you're overthinking things."
"The reason I dealt with Zhan Yin is because these bird's nests were originally meant for my mother, understand?"
Qiao Wanwan closed her eyes in despair. How stupid of her! Why did she still hope that Zhan Jingting cared about her even at this point!
Even she herself has started to look down on herself!
Qiao Wanwan took a deep breath, and when she opened her eyes again, her eyes were calm again. "I misspoke just now, you don't need to take it to heart. I just want to tell you that this matter has nothing to do with Zhan Yin. Although he has an outgoing personality, he is not the kind of person who would harm others."
"This is my family matter, and it's none of your business. If there's nothing else, then that's fine."
After Zhan Jingting finished speaking, he hung up the phone immediately.
Qiao Wanwan felt as if a huge rock was pressing on her chest, making it hard to breathe!
"Boss, let it go," Xiang Yang comforted him. "This matter is indeed a family affair of the Zhan family. You should not get involved."
“I can’t figure out Zhan Jingting’s personality, but Zhan Yin definitely wouldn’t harm anyone. If he were to be wronged by Zhan Jingting and something happens to him, I would never forgive myself.” Qiao Wanwan felt increasingly uneasy. “Xiang Yang, go find out from Jiang Dong where Zhan Yin is right now, quickly.”
Xiang Yang nodded, "Okay, boss, don't worry, I'll go find out right now."
......
At that time, Wutong Bay.
Zhan Jingting stared at the phone he had just hung up, a suppressed pain flashing in his dark, deep eyes.
The man closed his eyes, maneuvered his wheelchair downstairs, and came to the living room. Looking at Zhan Yin kneeling on the ground, he said, "Continue."
"Uncle, what are you continuing?" Zhan Yin was almost dying of grievance. "I really didn't know that bird's nest was poisonous, otherwise why would I have given it to Qiao Wanwan to eat?"
"How will you prove what you're saying?"
"How can I prove it?" Zhan Yin almost doubted his existence. "I've been kneeling here for hours, Uncle, I'm really innocent. If you kill me, it's manslaughter, and I'll be more wronged than Dou E!"
"A grown man who only knows how to cry foul when faced with trouble, and can't even produce the most basic evidence to prove himself, how did you become a member of the Zhan family!"
Zhan Yin: "......"
"Uncle, you're so capable, of course you can find out the truth and clear my name. I don't need to prove it myself."
Jiang Dong, who was standing to the side, coughed and kindly reminded him, "Young Master Yin, the reason you are only kneeling here now is because there is no evidence to prove that you are the one who harmed others, but your mother is different."
Zhan Yin's face turned pale. "What do you mean? What have you done to my mother?!"
“Young Master Yin, as you said yourself, that bird’s nest was prepared by your mother for our lady to eat, but unfortunately you gave it to the young lady and she ate it by mistake. Your mother must take responsibility for this.”
Zhan Yin panicked completely. "Uncle, you know my mother best. She's always been timid and docile. She would never harm anyone, let alone poison someone. There must be something fishy about this!"
"So I gave you a chance to explain and clarify, but you pushed this matter onto me and made me investigate." Zhan Jingting sneered, "My principle is to rather kill the innocent than let the guilty go free. The bird's nest came from your family, so your whole family should die."
"Uncle, spare me!" Zhan Yin was about to cry. "This matter has absolutely nothing to do with my mother! I'll investigate, I'll investigate right now!"
"I'm giving you three days. If you don't give me an explanation after three days, you'll bear the consequences."
"Isn't three days a bit too short?" Zhan Yin thought for a moment and said, "A week, I will definitely give you an explanation within a week!"
Zhan Jingting looked at him expressionlessly. "Two days."
Zhan Yin: "......"
"Five days, just five days!"
Zhan Jingting: "One day."
Zhan Yin was almost in tears, "I'll go investigate right now!"
He stood up from the ground, head drooping, and left.
Jiang Dong asked curiously, "Master Zhan, you've already found out the truth. This matter really has nothing to do with Young Master Yin and his mother. Why did you still control his mother and force him to investigate?"
Zhan Jingting said calmly, "Someone in the Zhan family must bear the heavy burden."
Jiang Dong frowned. "You intend to hand over the heavy responsibility of the Zhan family to Young Master Yin? But your health is not incurable!"
