Ji Yao has always been very clever and perceptive. Although Mo Xiaoqing only said two sentences, she had already revealed too much...
Some things can't withstand close scrutiny. Once you think about them carefully, all the loopholes and flaws you once noticed will come to light!
Jiang Wenjing, who is usually slow to realize things, had a strong bad feeling and felt that she had to stop Momo from saying the next thing, otherwise some things would be broken and could never be recovered!
“Mo Mo…”
Before she could finish speaking, Mo Xiaoqing quickly cut her off, "Wenjing, this matter has nothing to do with you. You'd better not get involved!"
Jiang Wenjing understood what Mo Xiaoqing meant, and she also knew that with her brother's whereabouts unknown, the hatred and confusion in her heart were not something that could be easily soothed by ordinary people.
After hesitating for a moment and quickly glancing at Li Qian beside her, she ultimately chose to remain silent.
She couldn't empathize with Momo's pain, nor had she experienced the coldness Yao Yao went through, being "forced" to jump into the sea...
Therefore, she was the least qualified to interrupt; she could only remain silent, for the outcome had already been decided!
Even if she speaks up, it won't stop anything, nor will it change anything.
Mo Xiaoqing's eyes darkened. She knew that Wen Jing had chosen to remain silent, and that she would no longer stop her from saying what she was about to say.
How could she feel good about it? She really didn't want to talk to Wenjing like that, but she... had no choice. Just thinking about her brother made her grit her teeth with hatred.
“I don’t know what prompted you to do these things, especially when I was locked up the second time, and everyone was trying to frame me, saying that Liangliang and I killed someone!”
Li Qian's fingers, which had been unresponsive until now, trembled slightly. Although it was not very obvious, it still caught Mo Xiaoqing's eye.
"Actually, at first I was confused and panicked because it was the first time I had experienced something like that. I didn't know what to say. In fact, when I woke up, I was in the police station. I was scared. If I said the wrong thing, it would drag more innocent people into it!"
"so…"
“I didn’t choose to tell the police about your phone call that night! I kept telling myself that maybe it was just an accident, or just a coincidence, and that you are innocent!”
Li Qian finally stopped pretending to be stupid, sat up straight, and stared intently into Mo Xiaoqing's eyes.
"...Then how did you guess me?"
“I don’t want to doubt you, but… you called me that night at Brother San’s bar, and then this happened the next day.”
All of this... is too coincidental. Perhaps she could comfort herself by saying that it was just a coincidence, an accident. She couldn't be too sensitive or overthink it!
But twice…
Where do so many accidents and coincidences come from in this world?
Even if you're just trying to comfort yourself, this reason is far too weak!
Li Qian's eyelashes concealed the turbulent emotions churning in her eyes. She asked cryptically, "...Is it really just because of a phone call that you've come to suspect me?"
Mo Xiaoqing paused for a moment, "If it were just a phone call, I wouldn't have focused all my attention on you."
“I know in my heart that you definitely didn’t kill those people. I’m even more certain that Liangliang killed them. She’s not as fragile as she seems. She may even have received systematic training!”
"Is that so?"
...Then why suspect her?
Mo Xiaoqing's eyes darkened, and she gave a seemingly casual smile before slowly answering.
"Sisi, you're all too impatient. It's only been a few days since the incident, and you're already reaching out your claws at me again. It's hard for me not to think about the key events that happened in between!"
"So... the glass of wine I gave you that day, right?"
"right!"
She found it hard to imagine what would have happened to her if she hadn't mentioned to Ji Muhan that she was going to Third Brother's Bar that night, and if Hanhan hadn't happened to be there and had spoken to her.
"Even so, haven't you ever considered that I might also be innocent, that someone else just happened to put it in that drink, and that I was framed and forced to sleep with someone else the next day?"
"Yes, even if what happened before was just a coincidence."
"I saw your earring on the deck of the ship the day my brother had the accident. Was it fake too? Or was it just a coincidence?"
Li Qian curled her lips into a smile, saying without much emotion, "What I thought was flawless has actually been exposed so unintentionally..."
"And... why did it happen that you were the one who got caught that day? This whole series of events is just too coincidental, making me suspicious of you!"
When Ji Yao heard these words, she was utterly disappointed.
When you drugged me, did you ever consider our friendship?
"…have."
But for just a moment, she really didn't want to put the medicine into the cup, which is why she hesitated and kept shaking the cup before finally deciding to push it in front of her.
She even felt terrible inside, so that very night she seduced a man... wanting to live a life of pleasure and forget everything.
But in reality, after waking up, I felt even emptier and more miserable inside, a feeling that could never be filled, a heart that had been hollowed out...
