Chapter 1879: Chapter 1878: Impossible to Betray Wen Ran
Mo Xiuchen noncommittally said, “Yeah, it’s the police.”
“Jiang Hui is just a college student. It’s impossible for her to have anti-surveillance abilities to the extent that she can even shake off the police, right?”
If that were true, the police following her might as well go home and eat by themselves.
“Let’s hope so, wait for the results.”
Half an hour later, Luo Haofeng and Mo Xiuchen were sitting on the leather sofa in his hotel room.
The faint aroma of coffee wafted through the air, sunlight streamed through the half-drawn floor-to-ceiling curtains, perfectly lighting up half of Luo Haofeng’s handsome face, reflecting a shimmering glow.
Mo Xiuchen’s tall frame leaned lazily against the sofa, his deep eyes slightly lowered, staring at the coffee cup, “Who do you think Jiang Hui wants to meet?”
Mo Xiuchen asked nonchalantly, not too concerned.
The person Jiang Hui wanted to meet was likely someone connected to Meng Ke.
Both Mo Xiuchen and Luo Haofeng never thought that Meng Ke heard some things he shouldn’t have from Wu Jingfang, which led him to send Jiang Hui to do those things.
The reason Wu Jingfang told Luo Rongbin that she had seen Meng Ke was that Luo Rongbin noticed her abnormality and kept questioning, forcing her to say something.
But she didn’t tell the whole truth and hid part of it.
Luo Haofeng shook his head and coldly said, “How would I know.”
Just then, Mo Xiuchen’s phone rang.
Mo Xiuchen took out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and his lips curved into a mysterious smile, “Here’s the call.”
After surveilling for so long, there’s no way they were shaken off.
After all, it’s the police, different from ordinary people.
Luo Haofeng’s expression turned serious, his keen, romantic eyes fixed on him.
Mo Xiuchen pressed the answer button with his long finger and said softly, “Hello.”
“Mo General, Jiang Hui met a young man in the café, we took a few photos…”
A young man?
Mo Xiuchen’s brow slightly furrowed, a shadowy glint flashed in his eyes, “Where are you now?”
“We’re on our way back to the hotel, will be there soon.”
“What about Jiang Hui, where did she go?”
“She also went back to the hotel.”
“Send the photos over first, you don’t need to come to the hotel for now.” Since they followed Jiang Hui all the way, precautions must be taken, it’s best not to let Jiang Hui recognize them.
A minute later, the other party sent the photos to Mo Xiuchen’s phone.
Mo Xiuchen glanced at them, handed the phone to Luo Haofeng, and said in a deep voice, “Jiang Hui met him.”
Luo Haofeng hadn’t seen the photos yet, but hearing Mo Xiuchen’s tone, his handsome face subtly changed.
Taking the phone and seeing the photos on it, his expression changed several times, his thin lips pressed tightly together, and he spoke three words solemnly, “Qi Jianlin.”
Qi Jianlin, is Qi Meiling’s brother.
“Why would Jiang Hui meet Qi Jianlin, and it was Meng Ke who sent her.” Thinking of something, Luo Haofeng suddenly looked at Mo Xiuchen with tension.
Mo Xiuchen guessed some things from his tense expression, his face becoming serious, “You’re suspecting that Meng Ke knows something from back then, so he sent Jiang Hui to find Qi Jianlin?”
It sounded rhetorical, but it was actually affirmative.
The Qi family had been in decline for years, and recently showed no signs of resurgence.
There really must be some involvement with Meng Ke?
Back then, Mo Xiuchen investigated the Qi family father and son, but although they had some issues, they were not like Meng Ke.
“Xiuchen, I’ll call Qi Jianlin immediately, you ask Jiang Hui what she knows exactly? The things from back then must not be allowed to come out.” Luo Haofeng looked seriously at Mo Xiuchen. Ever since he met Qi Meiling last time, he had somewhat looked out for the Qi family.
This in turn made him overlook the Qi family father and son, who might tell the past incidents for the sake of benefit.
Thinking of this, Luo Haofeng regretfully slapped his head, took out his phone, and dialed Qi Meiling’s number.
He didn’t have Qi Jianlin’s number, so he could only call Qi Meiling to ask.
Seeing Luo Haofeng so worried, Mo Xiuchen’s expression cooled slightly and he stood up and left the room.
He dialed Jiang Hui’s number.
The phone rang twice, and Jiang Hui’s voice came through the phone, gentle with a hint of warmth, “Hello, Mo General.”
“Are you back yet?”
Mo Xiuchen asked succinctly, his deep voice revealing no emotion.
On the other end, Jiang Hui’s voice was cheerful, “Mo General, I’ll be there soon.”
“I’ll wait for you in the café, don’t go back to the room first, come over directly.”
“Okay, Mo General.” Jiang Hui readily agreed.
She calculated her time, definitely not wanting to miss tonight’s banquet. Therefore, Mo Xiuchen finding her so early likely meant he had something else.
Jiang Hui had just finished her call with Mo Xiuchen and was hesitating whether to tell Mo Xiuchen about Bai Xiaoxiao, to use it as leverage for something?
But then her phone rang suddenly.
She hesitated for a few seconds before answering, Meng Ke’s voice came from afar, carrying a chill of the dark night, making Jiang Hui’s heart shiver.
“How did it go?”
Jiang Hui’s face changed, her brain working quickly, how did Meng Ke know so soon?
Did he have someone tailing her?
“I did meet Qi Jianlin, but he was unwilling to talk.” Jiang Hui hesitated and, for some reason, chose not to tell Meng Ke the truth.
Instead, she opted to lie.
Meng Ke snorted coldly on the other side of the line, “Jiang Hui, surely you haven’t been charmed by Mo Xiuchen, right? If Qi Jianlin really didn’t know, why would you transfer money to him?”
Jiang Hui’s face turned pale, and her heart was immediately filled with panic.
So Meng Ke knew so quickly because of the money transfer she made to Qi Jianlin earlier.
But that was her bank account, how did Meng Ke know?
As she was thinking of how to explain, Meng Ke’s threatening words came through, “Jiang Hui, I may not be able to deal with you, but what about your godfather and godmother? If you don’t honestly tell me the results, then just wait and see.”
“Boss Meng, I’m not withholding information from you, it’s just that Qi Jianlin really didn’t say anything.”
“Wu Jingfang wouldn’t lie to me. She said the Qi family father and son know some things from back then, and that means they definitely know. Jiang Hui, if you dare to play tricks with me, I will destroy you any minute.”
For now, he was unable to do anything to Bai Xiaoxiao because Bai Xiaoxiao had someone protecting her.
But destroying a Jiang Hui was still easy.
Jiang Hui shivered violently when Meng Ke said, “If you don’t believe me, just wait and watch. Within three days, I assure you’ll regret it.”
She didn’t dare to deceive anymore.
She was just a girl with no support, unwilling to ruin herself for Bai Xiaoxiao.
The most important thing was, even if she didn’t tell Meng Ke and tried to use the past incident to threaten Mo Xiuchen, she wouldn’t get what she wanted.
Mo Xiuchen would never betray Wen Ran for her.
