Chapter 908: Pregnant Lady, Stay Calm
“I… Mr. Lin, I don’t know anything. I’m only in charge of taking photos.” The a.s.sistant was obviously fl.u.s.tered. She quickly grabbed Lin Mu’an’s arm and said, “I’m just getting paid to do things.”
“What photos?” Lin Mu’an pushed her away as he asked calmly.
The a.s.sistant was a little hesitant. She lowered her head and weighed the consequences with a guilty conscience for a long while.
“It seems like you’re not afraid enough.” Lin Mu’an didn’t force the a.s.sistant to answer him. “Show me now. I promise I won’t do anything to you. If… you continue to resist me, I won’t force you now. But when I want to settle the score, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
The a.s.sistant raised her head and waved her hand. “No, Mr. Lin, I’m sorry. I know I’m in the wrong.” The a.s.sistant took out her phone and handed it to Lin Mu’an. “These are the photos.”
Lin Mu’an took the phone and flipped through it for about two minutes. There was an unconcealable anger in his eyes. “Who did you send these to?”
“Only one person, the one who asked me about them,” the a.s.sistant explained in panic. “Mr. Lin, I’m sorry. I was out of my mind to do such a thing. I’m really sorry.”
“Give me the contact information of that person.” Lin Mu’an deleted the photos as he spoke in an authoritative tone.
The a.s.sistant’s forehead was full of cold sweat. She had no choice, so she took back her phone immediately and found the contact information of that person. “This person came to me a few days ago and asked me for Miss Lu’s schedule. When he found out that Miss Lu was coming over for a fitting yesterday, he asked me to take a photo of Miss Lu.”
“I don’t know what method he used to make Miss Lu faint. He only asked me to control the timing. He didn’t care about anything else other than asking me to take a photo.”
Lin Mu’an got this person’s contact information.
A cold smile appeared on his face.
“Just pretend that you don’t know anything. I didn’t come to you and you didn’t give him up. You should understand what I’m saying, right?”
Of course, the a.s.sistant understood. After all, she didn’t want to get herself into trouble. She was already lucky with what had happened today.
If it were someone like Sheng Xiao, her entire family might not survive.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Lin. I won’t tell anyone. I won’t.” The a.s.sistant shook her head excessively.
“Doing this for money? I wonder how you feel when you use such ill-gotten money.”
After saying that, Lin Mu’an left the wedding dress shop with his clothes. After that, he went to the hospital to get Lu Qianqian’s examination report from last night. The report showed that there were traces of triazolam, a form of sedative, in Lu Qianqian’s urine.
How could a man endure seeing his beloved being hurt like this?
Lin Mu’an did not have a good expression on his face. However, when he returned to the Lu family and saw Lu Qianqian baking cakes at home, his mood eased up a little.
The engagement ceremony was tomorrow, but the photos had already spread out. Even if things could be clarified, he knew that the photos would definitely bring harm to Qianqian to a certain extent. This was unavoidable.
As her man, what was his use?
Lu Qianqian looked at Lin Muan’s complicated expression through the window. She removed her gloves and walked out. “Have you found out anything?”
“Ask Vice President Qin to come over this afternoon and bring the employee list and their contact details.” Lin Mu’an hugged Lu Qianqian.
“Since you found out, there’s no need to be unhappy.” Lu Qianqian comforted him and used her fingers to smooth his furrowed brows. “This afternoon, let’s see who the person hiding in Lu Corporation is.”
After a meeting with Vice President Qin in the afternoon, they found out that it was Lu Qianqian’s secretary who was also Lu Qianqian’s a.s.sistant.
It wasn’t hard to guess because the mole had to be close to the higher-ups in order to be so clear about Lu Qianqian’s schedule.
..
In order to find out the results earlier, Mu Qiqi had Xu Che send her to the Lu family’s home.
When she saw what Song Bozhi had done, she was helpless as she thought how ridiculous it was. “I really didn’t wrongly accuse him of being a weirdo. Is he a transs.e.xual? How dirty does a man have to be to think of such a move?”
“I really want to find someone to blind that trash’s eyes.” Mu Qiqi couldn’t control the anger in her heart when she thought of the photos in Song Bozhi’s hands.
“The a.s.sistant at the wedding dress shop said that she didn’t dare to go overboard with the photos.”
This was also the reason why Lin Mu’an was able to somewhat console himself.
“I haven’t exploded yet, but you guys have.” Lu Qianqian was calmer than before.
“We have to make some preparations for the engagement party tomorrow.” Mu Qiqi looked at the two of them and said seriously after she calmed down, “It’s going to be such a big event tomorrow, and the big shots of Jianchuan are all going to be here. We need to think of a way to retaliate. We can’t let that Song guy bully us.”
“First, the media are not allowed to enter or interview tomorrow to ensure that the news won’t leak out.
“Second, we need to take down this traitor today. It’s best if we get this mole to reveal Song Bozhi’s actions behind the scenes. If he dares to act rashly tomorrow, we’ll expose his perverted behavior and let everyone in Jianchuan see what kind of person the Yashang Group’s president is.”
“I’m just afraid that this traitor will not betray Song Bozhi,” Lin Mu’an said.
“If he doesn’t, can’t we deliberately turn the tables on him? We have the evidence that he was previously acting suspicious. It doesn’t matter if there is a traitor’s confession or not. Our main focus is to protect Qianqian’s reputation. We cannot let this dirty thing stick to us.”
Lu Qianqian looked at Mu Qiqi and knew that she was anxious and angry.
Hence, she quickly comforted Mu Qiqi. “Pregnant lady, stay calm.”
“I’m calm enough. If it were in the past, I… would have exploded a long time ago.”
“No matter what, there are too many unstable factors tomorrow, but we have to do what we can first. Lin Mu’an, your grandfather is what Qianqian cares about the most. It’s up to you whether or not you’ll tell him about this in advance.”
“I will come out tomorrow to express the Shen family’s stand in all this.”
“I don’t want the Song family to continue hara.s.sing my friends and family.”
After Lin Muan heard this, he nodded seriously. “When we go back tonight, I will say give the old man a head’s up because we don’t know how the Song family will take their next action.”
“I’ve implicated all of you.”
“Can you stop saying that? I’m willing to be implicated by you.” Lu Qianqian hugged her. “As friends, there will be no afterlife. If you were me, I believe you would be the same.”
What else could Mu Qiqi say?
Tomorrow, whatever price she had to pay, she couldn’t let Qianqian’s reputation be sullied by the likes of the Song family.
