Shen Wanci turned her head and looked at her: "How to do it?"

“I will give you a bait, hook you in, and then tell you the story in three parts. The first part is told today, the second when you get your child sent abroad and successfully make that professor his attending physician, and the third I’ll tell you after I settle down overseas,” Qin Yuezhi spoke with a light tone, but it was surprisingly convincing, “Human nature is like this. Even family and friends cannot be fully trusted. Look at those who were lured to Myanmar—besides their own greed, they were betrayed by acquaintances.”

“He’s the one who killed his aunt. If he didn't have a trump card, how would you take it back? If he really did it for money and went crazy enough to kill an innocent person, then he himself isn't a kind person. Can you bet that you are a forgiving and generous saint?”

Shen Wanci::“……”

Qin Yuezhi said: "So today, whether or not that call comes, you won't hear what you want. Since that's the case, why blame yourself?" Qin Yuezhi curled her lips, her alluring beauty stunningly beautiful. She stuffed a piece of cantaloupe into Shen Wanci's mouth. "People need to learn to compromise with themselves and not take everything on their shoulders. You have a body weighing hundreds of pounds, but you want to carry thousands of pounds of responsibility. Isn't that exhausting?"

The truth is right there, it's not going to run away with long legs. If we can't find out this time, we just keep looking. If one door is closed, we'll find a window. Can the road be completely blocked?

Shen Wanci took a bite of the cantaloupe, her mouth filled with sweetness. Her gloomy mood was like the sky clearing after clouds parted, suddenly brightening: "Yuezhi, opening a cultural relic shop is truly burying your talent."

"Or what, am I supposed to become a neighborhood committee auntie? Or wear a volunteer's uniform every day and wander around the lake, telling those disheartened youths to turn back?" She rolled her eyes. "Besides you, who cares if other people are happy or not?"

Shen Wanci was so touched that she reached out to hug her, but Qin Yuezhi dodged. She pulled open the drawer of the tea table and gave her a knowing look with a gossipy expression: "You guys are still on the sofa... ah..."

"...."

She looked at the condom tucked away at the bottom of the drawer, and a wave of heat surged through her. The veins on the back of her hand pulsed visibly.

"Bo Jingzhou is quite the player, isn't he? Is he thinking that since the hardware isn't good enough, he'll just rely on software to make up for it?"

"Just shut your mouth! And keep this face covered. Lawyer Huo looks like a serious old veteran at first glance."

Shen Wanci didn't know exactly how far Qin Yuezhi and Huo Tingdong had gotten, but the fact that her buttons were now in his possession suggested they had taken things to the next level. They were frequently seen together lately, which was more than just a coincidence.

Qin Yuezhi: "Lawyer Huo is into danmei literature. I've known him for ages, he's like my sister! At most, I'll just admire his looks. Oh, I'm a little curious about his other half. If they're both handsome, I'll have some CP to ship!"

The two were chatting away when Huo Tingsong and Bao Jingzhou emerged from who-knows-where, appearing behind them before they even realized.

They were so scared they almost took off right there.

Huo Tingdong asked Qin Yuezhi, "I'm leaving. What about you? Shall I send you back, or will you stay here?"

"Go back."

She still had a bit of self-awareness, seeing the look in her eyes, Thin Jingzhou knew she wasn't looking at him as a person, but more like a 1000-watt lightbulb.

Huo Tingdong nodded and didn't say anything. He strode out the door with his long legs.

The car is in Bo Jingzhou's garage, he just grabbed a random key from his study.

"After taking Qin Yue down, he said, 'Don't get your wound wet and remember to change the dressing at the hospital.'"

"Good," Qin Yue nodded, unbuckling her seat belt as she said, "I thought only doctors were this meticulous. It seems lawyers can be meticulous too. Thank you for today."

If it were only her and Shen Wanci, the other party probably wouldn't just stop after throwing sulfuric acid: "Let me treat you to a meal another day."

Huo Tingdong took a cigarette and held it between his lips, but because Qin Yuezhi didn't smoke, he didn't light it: "What is danmei literature?"

Pfft.

Qin Yuezhi : “…”

……

After Qin Yue and Huo Tingdong left, Bo Jingzhou also went out. As he left, he instructed Jin's sister-in-law to cook a nourishing soup for her to replenish qi and blood, "You stay at the villa with Madam tonight and wait for me to come back before leaving. If it gets too late, just stay here."

Auntie Jin had something to attend to tonight, but she keenly sensed the thick murderous intent in Bo Jingzhou's voice and immediately nodded in agreement.

She felt that Mr. Bo wasn't going out to do business, but to slaughter people.

Less than two minutes after Bo Jingzhou left, Shen Wanci received a call from Second Master Jiang, "Wanci, something happened to you?"

"Master Ginger is quite well-informed," Shen Wanci said, her words laced with obvious suspicion. She circled Master Ginger's name on the family tree, along with three others she had carefully analyzed and listed as suspects.

She is now almost certain that the painting was given to her mother by Aunt Su. Now she just needs to find out who Aunt Su is, and she will be able to identify the murderer.

"I know you suspect me, but it wasn't me. I would have known about your accident because Bo Jingzhou was frantically searching for a fake car. I did a little investigating, and that car came from Qingshan Prison. Combined with other clues, it was my deduction."

"Would you like to meet up? There's a cafe near the Yting Pavilion."

Shen Wanci thought for a moment, and agreed: "Okay."

"I sent Lu Feng to pick you up, he should be here soon."

"...."

In the cafe, Old Master Ginger was leisurely sipping lemonade at his seat. Besides him, there were no other customers.

Lu Feng only sent her to the door.

Seeing Shen Wanci enter, Second Master Jiang's gaze fell on the burn on her hand, his brows slightly furrowed, "Is there anywhere else?"

"Gone."

Mr. Ginger Second Master took a contract from the stool beside him and handed it to her: "Take a look, does it look familiar?"

Shěn Wǎncí flipped it over, it was the one she had signed with Lù Fēng back then, "What do you mean?"

He definitely wouldn't have shown her that for no reason, there must be something else going on.

Just as Mr. Jiang was about to speak, the door of the cafe was rudely pushed open. Lu Feng stood at the entrance and immediately stopped the person: "Mr. Bo, Mr. Jiang and Miss Shen are discussing matters, please wait a moment."

"A moment, please? What if I don't wait? I have no idea what Second Master Jiang could possibly need to discuss with my wife."

Neither side will yield.

In the tense atmosphere that was about to explode, Ginger Er Ye calmly said, "Let Mr. Bo come in."

He looked at Shen Wanci and said the purpose of inviting her out today: "I have a batch of cultural relics abroad, but because of some reasons, I can't bring them back temporarily. So I hope you can go abroad to help me repair these things for a year." top: 97step on: 3
