Qin Si Ye stared at her, continuing, "Some time ago, I learned from Zhao Ze that you and Jian Fan were investigating him.
So, I made this call to you. I didn't expect him to be the major enemy you were looking for."
He had arranged for people to track her all the way here, and to avoid Shen Xi blaming him for interfering, he claimed it was a chance encounter.
"Mhm," Shen Xi thanked him from the bottom of her heart and briefly recounted the past events.
She also guessed that Qin Si Ye's understanding of the matter was far deeper than what he had revealed.
Then, she whispered, "Lu Qi Hang's sudden car accident, was that arranged by you?"
Qin Si Ye chuckled, "Your imagination is running wild. How could I have arranged something like that when I didn't even know he would try to escape today?
Besides, I'm a businessman. How could I possibly get involved in something as serious as a matter of life and death?"
What he said made sense. Yet, for some reason, Shen Xi suddenly recalled the man in black who had his throat slit yesterday at the Happy Farm. She wondered what happened to him afterwards.
"Qin Si Ye, I know you care about me and are willing to do anything for me. But you must never do anything involving human lives. That carries legal responsibility."
"Mhm, I know. Don't worry, everything is fine," Qin Si Ye took her hand again. "Now that your great revenge has been served, you should be happy. Don't overthink it. Let's go."
As the two of them walked out the door, they saw Jian Fan standing outside. Shen Xi quickly pulled her hand away and said to Qin Si Ye, "You should go back first. I'll contact you later."
"Alright," Qin Si Ye cast a meaningful glance at Jian Fan, then turned and left. Read novels online.
"Sister Xi, I apologize. I've investigated what happened this morning. One of the people I arranged to infiltrate Lu's Group was bribed by Lu Qi Hang, which is why they fled in such a panic," Jian Fan said in a low voice as he walked with Shen Xi to a secluded spot.
"Oh?" Shen Xi's heart skipped a beat. "What about that person?"
"He escaped," Jian Fan replied with a face full of guilt. "But I already know his whereabouts and am sending people to pursue him. I will not let him get away."
Shen Xi lowered her head, not saying anything.
Although it was no longer of great significance whether that person was caught. However, someone who betrayed them like this indeed deserved a lesson.
A moment later, Jian Fan asked again, "Sister Xi, how should Zheng Jing He be handled?"
He had already brought him back overnight and confined him in a small motel.
Shen Xi thought for a moment. "Where is he? Take me to see him now."
"Okay." Jian Fan sent her the location of the motel.
The two of them returned to their respective cars. Shen Xi looked in the mirror, quickly put on her mask, and drove in that direction. kanδん
Forty minutes later, they arrived at a small motel in the suburbs. As soon as Zheng Jing He saw Shen Xi, his body trembled, and he retreated towards the wall.
"What? Mr. Zheng, have you done something wrong recently? Why are you so frightened seeing me?" Shen Xi chuckled as she looked at his anxious and uneasy expression.
His hair was disheveled, and his eyes were dull and lifeless. He looked like a completely different person from the one she had seen a month ago.
"I..." Zheng Jing He hesitated to speak, then knelt directly on the ground. "Miss Mia, I'm so sorry. During the time I was kept here by you, I was completely isolated from the outside world, and I really couldn't bear it anymore.
So... so a few days ago, I secretly escaped.
Actually... actually, I just wanted to go out and get a haircut. Look how messy my hair is.
I was wrong, please forgive me. From now on, I will do whatever you ask me to, and I will never have any other malicious thoughts."
Shen Xi walked to a chair opposite him, sat down, crossed her legs, and said unhurriedly, "Mr. Zheng, if you wanted a haircut, you should have just said so. I could have asked Manager Jian to arrange for someone to help you with it. Why go through all the trouble of climbing out the window?
Also, you've misunderstood the whole thing. This wasn't confinement; it was just a request for your cooperation.
My goal was to avenge the Yin family, retrieve their belongings, and ensure that those who did wrong were punished accordingly.
Now that Lu Huai An has been arrested, you have also completed your task.
There are two paths you can choose from now on."
Hearing this, Zheng Jing He's heart trembled, and he quickly said, "Okay, tell me."
"The first path is that I will submit your recorded materials, and together with Lu Huai An, you will be investigated for the case back then. The judicial authorities will decide how many years you should be sentenced," Shen Xi said, forcing a smile and narrowing her eyes as she stared at him.
"No, I will definitely not choose this path. Miss Mia, you can't go back on your word.
Back in Haicheng, you promised me that matter would be settled privately.
I... I have also been very cooperative with you," Zheng Jing He said, his voice faltering slightly on the last sentence.
