Ring ring ring, a piercing sound rang out.
Suddenly, without warning, a shrill ringing sound rang out in the darkness, sounding so abrupt and so unsettling.
Song Lili was overjoyed and excited. She pushed open the door, groped her way in the dark, found the phone, and answered it without even turning on the light.
"Hello, is this Brother Qian?"
"Yeah, Lili, you're still awake? I was thinking of calling you tomorrow, but I was worried about keeping you waiting, so I decided to call you instead."
"No one answered, so I thought you were asleep and were hanging up the phone." Qian Liulin's voice rang in Song Lili's ears.
"I'm not asleep yet. I was in the yard, so it took me a while to get in," Song Lili said, pursing her lips.
That's not the case at all. She was in such a hurry that she sneaked in in the dark and couldn't see anything, which is why it took her a little longer.
"Lili, I've found out what you asked me to investigate. There is indeed someone targeting you." Qian Liulin's voice sounded a little different on the other end of the phone.
Song Lili didn't recognize the voice, but asked excitedly, "Who is it? Who is targeting me?"
"Lili, do you know someone named Qian Weide?" Qian Liulin asked abruptly without saying anything.
"I don't know him." Song Lili thought for a moment; none of the people she knew had that name.
"Oh, Brother Qian, forget about everything else, just tell me, who exactly is this person you're talking about? Could it be someone who's targeting me?"
Song Lili suddenly realized that Qian Liulin would not ask a stranger for no reason at this time.
Therefore, the most likely explanation is that this person is the one targeting her.
But who is Qian Weide? Does she know him?
Song Lili thought about it carefully again and realized that she still hadn't heard of the name, so she didn't know this person at all.
"Yes, it's him." Qian Liulin licked his lips, confirming Song Lili's guess.
"I don't know this person. Why is he targeting me?" Song Lili couldn't understand why a stranger would do this.
Surely this person isn't mentally ill?
"You really don't recognize him?" Qian Liulin couldn't help but ask again.
Song Lili shook her head firmly, "I don't know him. I have no memory of him at all, and I've never heard of this name before."
So, we really don't know each other.
"Lili, this person, he... he's a member of our family." Although they live quite far apart, he's still considered a member of the Qian family.
Therefore, when he found out the result, Qian Liulin's expression was extremely complicated.
He had always wanted to find an opportunity to repay Song Lili, but he never expected that his own family would use their power to target Song Lili, which made him feel ashamed.
However, Song Lili did not take her anger out on others, or rather, she had not thought about it yet; she only had one question.
"Then why is he targeting me?" Her relationship with the Qian family should be pretty good, right? Why would the Qian family target her?
"I haven't found out yet. I'll ask tonight and give you an answer tomorrow."
Because her feelings were too complicated, Qian Liulin forgot to ask Qian Weide why he was targeting Song Lili.
Now that Song Lili had asked him, he realized he had forgotten to ask, and could only make a somewhat embarrassed promise.
"It's alright, no rush." Song Lili smiled. If it was the Qian family targeting her, then she could rest assured. With Qian Liulin there, they would definitely be able to resolve the situation perfectly.
So there's no need to worry too much anymore.
"Wait, Brother Qian, wait..." A second before hanging up the phone, a thought suddenly flashed through Song Lili's mind. She quickly grabbed him and called out to Qian Liulin, who was about to hang up.
"What's wrong?" Qian Liulin asked, hearing Song Lili's anxious voice, thinking there was something she had forgotten to mention.
"Is the Qian Weide you mentioned someone with a son named Qian Jijun?"
Song Lili had been thinking all day about when she and this man named Qian Weide had crossed paths.
The final result was that there was no interaction whatsoever, yet this person was indeed targeting her.
So Song Lili changed her approach. Since she had never heard of this person, perhaps she had offended someone else, maybe a relative or friend.
So, let's start by thinking outside the box and begin with people whose surname is Qian.
She had never offended anyone with the surname Qian before. If she had to say that she had any dealings with anyone with the surname Qian, it would only be Xiao Chen's classmate, Qian Jijun.
Because Xiao Chen hit Qian Jijun, she came into contact with this family, but is it really this family?
Would he retaliate against her because of something that happened between the children?
It seems that such a possibility exists!
But Song Lili still couldn't believe it. It was really just because of a child's mouth that they got into a fight, and that the other party was trying to kill her.
"Yes, his son does have that name, but how did you know?" Qian Liulin had a general idea of what was going on; it seemed there really was a problem!
Song Lili was absolutely stunned; she never expected it to actually be like that.
Just because of something between the children, the other party retaliated against me so fiercely.
This was the first time Song Lili had ever seen something like this, but thinking about it, it wasn't impossible, was it?
There are all kinds of people in this world, so it's not surprising that there are people who make a mountain out of a molehill.
“Brother Qian, if this Qian Weide is Qian Jijun’s father, then I really have offended him,” Song Lili said to Qian Liulin with a wry smile.
Although she didn't offend him herself, Xiao Chen is her child. As a mother, taking responsibility for her child is almost the same as offending someone else.
"You really have some connection with him? How did you offend him?" Qian Liulin, who had been standing stiffly by the phone, slowly sat down and asked.
He shared the same thought as Song Lili: if this person was a member of the Qian family, then things would be simpler and easier to handle.
Therefore, Qian Liulin now needs to know what exactly happened between Song Lili and this Qian Weide.
Song Lili then recounted what had happened, naturally including every single word Qian Jijun had said about her.
They're trying to wipe her out, so why should she spare them? She should at least retaliate.
It's probably impossible for her to keep it a secret for them.
She didn't embellish the story; she simply presented it objectively, trying her best to avoid personal bias.
"That's roughly how things are. I thought the matter was over, but I didn't expect such a follow-up development." Song Lili smiled bitterly.
