“But he can order others to do it, he didn’t have to do it himself.”
“Watch your mouth, you’re making false charges against President Qin!” Yang had never been more furious in his life; were the policemen here f*cking idiots?
How could they suspect President Qin?
Qin Chu pulled the corner of Yang’s s.h.i.+rt. “Calm down and sit.”
“But President Qin… they…”
“I told you to sit down.”
Yang immediately sat down upon realizing that Qin Chu was mad.
“I understand why you’re suspecting me… I’ll cooperate with the police while you search for evidence, and I hope you can solve this case as soon as possible. I didn’t want my employee to die either. After all, there are so many questions I still wanted to ask her. Her death is a burden on me as well.”
“Okay, this case is currently our number one priority, we will solve it as soon as possible.”
Although the police officers suspected Qin Chu, they didn’t have enough proof to detain him. Therefore, he could go about his business and sleep in his own hotel room.
However, because of his current situation, he couldn’t leave T City.
Things soon became more complicated than ever. That night, someone posted an article online t.i.tled, ‘GK’s manager was murdered, the young president is involved’.
The article was written in detail and explained how Jiang Linyue was investigated by GK because she had too many secrets on her hands. However, she mysteriously died and therefore, Qin Chu must be the culprit.
As soon as this article was posted, the media began sharing it and it quickly went viral.
More and more netizens began bas.h.i.+ng on Qin Chu, immediately blowing Jiang Linyue’s death out of context.
Qin Chu was busy the entire day and didn’t get back to his hotel room until 8 PM that evening.
As soon as he went in, he sent Huo Mian a video request.
“Honey…” Huo Mian calmed down upon seeing her husband’s face.
“Don’t worry, Honey. I’m okay.”
He always sounded so nonchalant, as if he could handle everything.
“How did Jiang Linyue die?”
“Asphyxiation.”
“She suffocated?” Huo Mian was surprised.
“Mhm, apparently it was asphyxiation by a foreign object. There wasn’t direct evidence, so the police didn’t say what killed her. But I think someone suffocated her with a pillow, handkerchief, or something like that.”
“This is terrible… I have a feeling that Jiang Linyue’s murderer framed you to ruin your reputation.”
“I feel the same.” Qin Chu smiled.
“How can you still be smiling?” Huo Mian blamed Qin Chu.
“When I see your face, I don’t care about anything anymore… really.” The truth was, Qin Chu had been in a foul mood for the past few days. However, no matter how bad of a mood he was in, he always adjusted himself before video-chatting Huo Mian.
He didn’t want the woman he loved to worry about him…
“Honey… when can you come back? I miss you.” Huo Mian looked at Qin Chu’s face, feeling heartbroken that he had lost weight.
“Soon… I’ll head back as soon as I’m done here.”
“Did you see that article from last night?”
“Don’t worry about it. Someone’s trying to make this incident a bigger deal than it is.”
“Should we issue a statement?”
“No, the more we explain, the guiltier we’ll seem. Time will prove everything.”
“Honey… you need to be careful. Jiang Linyue’s dead… this just proves how ruthless your enemies are. They’re completely devoid of humanity and capable of killing people like they don’t matter… I’m really worried about you,” Anxious, Huo Mian reminded Qin Chu again and again.
