His expression was indifferent, as if he were listening to a stranger's gossip.
"She's been arrested!"
Huo Jingxi picked up a bottle of wine from the side table, took out three glasses, and paused after pouring the second glass.
With a sigh, he screwed the cap back on.
"I've asked around, and her crime is serious. She might not be out anytime soon!"
Can't get out?
Lu Yi blinked, shifted his position, and leaned to one side of him.
What did she do?
Spreading indecent videos is wrong, but given Lin Hongtao's doting on her, he shouldn't be unable to handle even this small trouble.
Besides, he was well aware of Lin Xiaoya's methods.
She wouldn't do such dirty work herself; she would only remotely control that puppet master across the ocean, ordering him around at will.
Did the hawk handler get his eye pecked out?
Lu Yi's deep, dark eyes narrowed, and alarm bells rang in his mind.
"While the amount of contraband she smuggled into the food wasn't enough to warrant the death penalty, it was enough for her to spend the best years of her life in prison!"
Huo Jingxi picked up a few pieces of ice from the ice bucket and threw them into the amber-colored Remy Martin.
The crisp sound of the impact made Lu Yi's pupils darken slightly.
"Nothing fishy is going on?"
He wanted to know if Lin Xiaoya had been framed by someone.

The projection screen opposite the sofa lit up, and Huo Jingxi fell silent.
Lu Yi stretched his arms out over the back of the sofa, tilted his head back, and closed his eyes. "Why are you telling me this?"
Huo Jingxi chuckled.
"Didn't you break up with that girl because of her? I thought..."
Sensing the cold and unfriendly gaze, Huo Jingxi licked his palate and raised his hands above his head. "I was being nosy. Come on, let's watch a movie!"
Watching...a movie?
After fiddling around for a while, Du Guanglong accidentally put in the wrong memory card. Sure enough, a pair of entangled people were putting on a lively performance on the opposite screen.
Huo Jingxi was speechless on the spot!
"Big brother, you...you don't have to go to such lengths to cooperate with me, do you?"
