After Miss Lu became the only one to enjoy the limelight, her six brothers knelt down and begged for

Seeing how anxious the other person was, Lu Ning felt a little strange.

Based on all the previous investigations and speculations, she felt that Boss Qin was a man who liked gambling and loved money.

In the eyes of this kind of man, only money is the most important thing.

As for Qin Xiang, she was merely a tool for Boss Qin to amass wealth.

So, why is Boss Qin so concerned about Qin Xiang's safety?

Lu Ning felt something was amiss, but outwardly she coldly replied, "Your Qin family members are all guilty. Do you think I would let you go?"

"What happened back then had nothing to do with Qin Xiang."

"Heh, it has nothing to do with her? But she colluded with you to embezzle public funds, almost causing the Lu family's company to go bankrupt. Do you think it has nothing to do with her?"

Lu Ning looked at Qin Laoda and said, "Your whole family are ungrateful wretches. Back then, you had a criminal record and couldn't find a job. My parents kindly kept you on as a driver to earn money and support our children. And how did you repay my parents?"

When Qin Laoda heard these words, he lowered his head and remained silent.

Lu Ning was very angry: "Speak up, why aren't you answering?"

"I'm sorry for what happened to you."

"Since you know you've done wrong, then do something to make amends. The Mo family bribed you, right?"

Lu Ning looked at Boss Qin and said, "I need you to come forward and confess that the Mo family hired someone to kill Qin Xiang. If you do that, Qin Xiang will be fine."

"You actually traced it back to the Mo family?"

Qin was somewhat surprised. He then said, "I'll do anything you ask, but my condition is that you spare my daughter."

Lu Ning didn't expect it to be so easy.

But she still felt that something was not quite right!

She pressed further, "What about the money?"

"Gone."

"How could it be gone! Do you think I'd believe you?"

Lu Ning's gaze was scrutinizing, clearly indicating disbelief.

Qin, the eldest brother, had a "what's the use" attitude: "After getting the money, of course I went to gamble a couple of times, but I was unlucky and lost it all. Otherwise, I would have run away long ago, why would I be staying in the shop waiting for you guys to come looking for me?"

Lu Ning was speechless after hearing this.

That reason makes sense.

But Lu Ning still felt it was going too smoothly.

Does Qin really dote on his daughter that much? How could a gambler and abusive domestic abuser be so good to her?

Lu Ning turned and left the room, looking at Ji Chiqian standing in front of her: "I always feel that there is something wrong with Boss Qin, but I can't quite put my finger on it."

"It went too smoothly indeed."

Ji Chiqian had just overheard Lu Ning's conversation with Boss Qin. Surprisingly, the other party didn't make any demands, only saying that Qin Xiang wouldn't be implicated.

Lu Ning said suspiciously, "Let's do a paternity test first to see if he is really Qin Xiang's father."

After all, she's had plastic surgery; who knows if it's really her?

Ji Chiqian nodded: "Okay."

Lu Ning was a little unsure: "Shouldn't you also release Madam Mo?"

As long as Madam Mo is not released, Ji Chiqian's mother will be angrier every day.

"Yes, I'll arrange it."

After Ji Chiqian finished speaking, he looked at her and said, "The Mo family has indeed started to suspect you. The driver who came to see you just now was also from the Mo family."

He sent people to investigate the taxi driver from earlier, and they quickly got a lead.

They were indeed people sent by the Mo family.

Their purpose was clear: they wanted to take Lu Ning away to get answers, or perhaps as a hostage.

When Lu Ning learned that it was the Mo family who had made the move, she and Ji Chiqian had the same thought.

After all, if the Mo family could hire someone to commit murder back then, it's not impossible for them to use a driver to take him away now.

She looked at Ji Chiqian and said, "Once Madam Mo goes back, this kind of thing shouldn't happen again."

After all, by then, the Mo family would be too busy taking care of themselves.

"We still can't let our guard down. The Mo family has always been very petty. They're the ones who wrong others, never the other way around."

Ji Chiqian had a fairly good understanding of the Mo family.

Lu Ning gave him a meaningful look: "So you know so much about the Mo family?"

The man paused slightly: "I'm not blind, and I'm not the only one who thinks this way about the Mo family."

Lu Ning avoided his gaze; it seemed the Mo family would definitely retaliate later.

Regardless of whether the Mo family finds any evidence, they will retaliate against the Lu family.

After all, the Lu family is the prime suspect.

Ji Chiqian looked at her and said, "I'm here for the Mo family, so there's nothing to worry about."

“I’m not worried. Once Madam Mo goes back, the Mo family will definitely guess that the Lu family knows about the car accident from back then. Given the Mo family’s stingy nature, they will definitely take action against the Lu family. But I don’t really care whether the Lu family goes bankrupt or not.”

The Mo family had previously used the Lu family to threaten him.

It had no effect whatsoever; she even felt a little like applauding it.

Now that Qin Xiang's father has been captured, the Mo family should be the ones who are afraid.

Lu Ning looked at Ji Chiqian and said, "Then I'll go back to school first; I still have classes."

"I'll take you to school. I'll contact you if anything happens here."

The two left together in a car.

Along the way, Lu Ning discussed the case from back then with Ji Chiqian, insisting on finding more evidence so that they would be foolproof in court in the future.

The vehicle was parked outside the school.

Lu Ning turned her head to look at Ji Chiqian: "Then I'll go first. You should go and take care of your own things too. I can handle these things myself."

Ji Chiqian smiled faintly: "This is my own business."

His voice was calm, yet it inexplicably made Lu Ning's face flush slightly.

She coughed, turned around, opened the car door, and left.

As Lu Ning walked into the school, she could still feel that gaze on her back.

She couldn't help but look back. The car was still parked on the side of the road, its black lines cold and distant, just like the man's usual demeanor.

But he was so good to me, almost always granting my every request.

Lu Ning felt incredibly warm inside; after all that had happened, there were still people who had stayed by her side through thick and thin.

If Ji Chiqian isn't afraid, then what is she afraid of?

After silently making up her mind, Lu Ning walked straight towards the dormitory.

When she returned to her dormitory, she found people standing outside the room, who looked like servants.

what's the situation?

Lu Ning pushed open the door and went in, and saw that a guest had indeed arrived. A very young-looking noblewoman was sitting in front of Chen Yu.

She couldn't help but wonder if Chen Yu's family had arrived.

But Chen Yu's parents have already passed away, haven't they?

"Lu Ning, you're back."

Chen Guoguo was the first to see Lu Ning, and she quickly said, "Chen Yu's family has arrived."

Chen Yu stood up and looked at Lu Ning: "Let me introduce you. This is Aunt Ye. She's back from abroad."

Aunt Ye?

Could it be Chen Yu's stepmother?

The lady stood up and looked at Lu Ning with a gentle smile: "Hello, I often hear Chen Yu mention you."

When Lu Ning saw this wealthy woman, her expression changed drastically.

This woman looks a bit like Qin Xiang.
