Fang Xiaoya thought deeply: "We had dinner together that day. On the way to send Lu Qian back, she asked me about the case in a sideways manner. Because I didn't know her well, I didn't tell her. I didn't expect that she was already investigating secretly.
I wonder what her purpose in investigating this case is?"
"No matter what her purpose is, at least she is not harmful to us. She can even help us a lot. So, I want to talk to Lu Qian back."
"Are you sure she won't betray us?" Fang Xiaoya was still worried.
"Based on my intuition, she won't." Qiao Liang said simply.
Seeing that Qiao Liang's answer was so certain, Fang Xiaoya nodded: "Okay, let's take a gamble, there seems to be no better choice now."
After a while, Fang Xiaoya's mobile phone message alert sounded. Fang Xiaoya read it and said, "Ning Hailong and Ye Xinyi left after eating."
Qiao Liang nodded: "We also eat."
After dinner, Xiao Zheng drove Qiao Liang home first.
On the way, Xiaoya asked Qiao Liang: "Are you and her okay now?"
Qiao Liang knew that the woman Fang Xiaoya was talking about was Zhang Mei. Although she had divorced Zhang Mei, she couldn't tell Fang Xiaoya at this time, so she nodded: "Everything remains the same."
Fang Xiaoya saw that Qiao Liang spoke so harshly in front of her, and knew that he had to abide by the agreement with Zhang Mei. Although she knew that Qiao Liang and Zhang Mei had broken up, and that she had done it herself, she could not reveal it in front of Qiao Liang.
A trace.
Thinking about it like this, I couldn't help feeling depressed and sighed secretly.
Both Qiao Liang and Fang Xiaoya knew the truth of the matter, but they had to hide it from each other, which was tantamount to torture for them.
I don’t know when this suffering will end.
When Qiao Liang returned home, Zhang Mei was sitting cross-legged on the sofa watching TV. When Qiao Liang came back, Zhang Mei rolled her eyelids and said nothing.
Qiao Liang didn't say anything, and went directly into his room, half leaning on the bedside, smoking and thinking about his own thoughts...
At this time, Ye Xinyi's home.
Ye Xinyi was in the bedroom reading a book, while Ning Hailong was standing on the balcony talking on the phone in a low voice.
"The identity of the person who secretly followed Jin Tao and me has been found out..." Ning Hailong's voice was very respectful.
"Say-" A deep man's voice came on the phone.
"This person's name is Yang Yong, nicknamed Lao San. He is a private detective by profession. He is a college classmate of Qiao Liang and Fang Xiaoya and has a close relationship with them."
"What do you think this person's purpose is for following Jin Tao and you?" The man's voice was still very low.
"According to my preliminary judgment, it seems that it is related to Fang Xiaoya's suspicion of the cause of Fang Zhengtai's death, and this person is helping them investigate. Since this person is now investigating Jin Tao, it seems that there is some flaw on the perpetrator's side, or something has been leaked
Mouth."
"Isn't the perpetrator in jail? How could he leak the news? Didn't Jin Tao give his family a sum of money and treat him with both soft and hard tactics? How dare he say anything?"
"I can't figure this out right now. I'll continue to investigate next."
The other party was silent for a while and then said: "You need to do three things now. First, you must silence the perpetrator and never let him talk nonsense. Second, you immediately reduce unnecessary contact with Jin Tao.
Even when necessary, we must draw a clear line with him and not let him drag you into it. Third, continue to follow up and investigate the private detective. Once we find out that he knows something that is detrimental to us, we must take decisive measures against him.
action."
"Okay, I understand."
The other party was silent for another moment and said: "Qiao Liang...why is this guy indispensable for everything? Do you think he is the mastermind of this matter?"
"This, I'm not sure yet."
"You are handling the case, so of course you can't be sure without evidence, but my intuition should be like this." The other party's tone was a bit arbitrary, and he hung up the phone after speaking.
Ning Hailong took a deep breath, looked at the cold night sky, and pondered over the man's words, his eyes getting colder and colder...
The next morning, Fang Xiaoya asked Qiao Liang to meet at a teahouse and handed a USB flash drive to Qiao Liang: "All the preliminary investigation results are in it, including the perpetrator's recording."
Qiao Liang put away the USB flash drive: "Where is the third child?"
"He set off early in the morning with an outdoor self-driving team. The trip is not close and he will not be back until a month later."
Qiao Liang smiled: "This guy is quite carefree. Okay, if the people following him don't mind it, just go on a self-driving trip with him."
Fang Xiaoya also smiled, and then said: "When do you plan to find Lu Qian?"
"Look for her now." Qiao Liang immediately took out his cell phone and called Lu Qian, who was quickly connected.
"Hello, Mr. Qiao." Lu Qian's clear voice came from the phone.
"Hello, Director Lu Da." Qiao Liang said with a smile, "Are you busy at this time?"
"I'm not busy. What are your instructions, Master Qiao?"
"No instructions, I'm drinking tea in the teahouse, will you come?"
"Who else?"
Qiao Liang glanced at Fang Xiaoya and then said, "It's just me."
"Um, is it convenient for a man and a woman to drink tea together?" Lu Qian teased.
"What are you worried about in broad daylight? Don't come here if you're afraid of losing your virginity." Qiao Liang smiled slightly.
"Screw you, tell me the address of the teahouse and I'll go there right away." Lu Qian knew that Qiao Liang was definitely not just having tea with her at this time.
Qiao Liang told Lu Qian the address and then hung up the phone.
Fang Xiaoya looked at Qiao Liang with a half-smile but not a smile: "From the way you and Lu Qian talk, it seems like your relationship is unusual."
"You are overthinking it. Lu Qian has a lively and informal personality. I am just joking with her."
"Okay, I'll leave this opportunity to you alone." Fang Xiaoya then stood up and left.
Less than a quarter of an hour later, Lu Qian arrived, and Qiao Liang made her a cup of tea.
Lu Qian sat opposite Qiao Liang and looked at him with a smile: "Mr. Qiao, stop talking nonsense and get to the point."
Qiao Liang liked Lu Qian's cheerfulness in doing things and said straight to the point: "I invited you here because I want to talk to you about Fang Xiaoya's father's case."
Lu Qian's eyes lit up: "Say."
"Tell me first how far you have investigated?"
Lu Qian nodded: "Because I found some strange things in the case file, I secretly conducted some investigations, starting with the perpetrator. I found that the perpetrator's daughter had leukemia. After his accident, the boss of his company, Jin Tao, arranged for someone to
It’s strange that he sent a sum of money to his family. Ordinarily, as the boss of the perpetrator’s company, if Jin Tao gives money, he should also give it to the victim. How to give it to the perpetrator..."
"Well, keep talking." Qiao Liang nodded.
"Then I discovered another strange phenomenon. After all the money Jin Tao gave to the perpetrator's family was spent on medical treatment for their children, their family received another donation of an objective amount. This donor was not Jin Tao, but a woman. I am checking.
What is this woman's name and identity, and what is the purpose of the donation..."
Qiao Liang interrupted Lu Qian: "You don't need to check this. Let me tell you, this woman is Fang Xiaoya. The purpose of donating is to show love and to find her out from the perpetrator."
Clues to the truth behind dad’s death.”
"Ah?" Lu Qian was slightly surprised, then understood and nodded, "I see."
Qiao Liang said: "Based on your current investigation, what judgment can you make?"
