Chapter 599: A Reasonable Suspicion
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation . Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
However, all of this was just Qin Mucheng’s speculation. There was no evidence to support it.
He could only pretend he didn’t know anything and give Li Xirui a face.
Li Xirui’s uncle was stunned when he saw how intimate Qin Haowen and Cheng Shuqin were with the two of them.
“This… What’s going on?”
Qin Haowen turned to look at the three of them and said gently, “We still have to wait for the police’s investigation results. Or maybe Li Xirui would tell the truth when she woke up. If my son was in the wrong, and he did trick Li Xirui or pull to take the knife, then I won’t tolerate it and will definitely make him accept the punishment of the law.”
Son?” Li Xirui’s uncle was dumbfounded.
Qin Mucheng was actually Qin Haowen’s son?
They had long heard that Qin Haowen had a son who was studying abroad, but they had never seen him before.
There were no clues in Qin Mucheng’s file either.
Moreover, he heard from his niece that Qin Mucheng was a loner. The car he drove, the clothes he wore, and the location he lived in were all average. It seemed like his family background was not very good.
Therefore, even if both of them had the surname Qin, he thought it was just a coincidence and never thought about it.
Since Qin Mucheng was Qin Haowen’s son, why would he be working at the lowest level in the company’s marketing department?
“President Qin, I’m sorry. My Sister-in-law was too anxious and said something unpleasant.” Li Xirui’s uncle explained awkwardly.
Qin Haowen raised his hand, “I can understand. No matter what, Li Xirui was injured because of my son. Our Qin family will definitely take responsibility for this matter.”
Li Xirui’s uncle nodded in embarra.s.sment, “Thank you, President Qin. Thank you so much.”
Seeing this, Cheng Shuqin said gently, “Yuanyuan is Mu Cheng’s fiancee who has been engaged since they were a child. The two of them have always had a good relationship. I believe my son will not two-timing. There must be some misunderstanding between them.”
Her voice was gentle and firm as she explained on behalf of Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng.
Li Xirui’s parents and uncle looked a little embarra.s.sed when they heard this. Seeing this, Qin Haowen and Cheng Shuqin naturally didn’t say anything more. Ji Yuanyuan helped Cheng Shuqin sit down on a chair beside them.
A moment later, Ji Yuanyuan received a call from the police.
They had already arrived at the scene and brought Hu Hao away. Now, they needed to record Qin Mucheng and Ji Yuanyuan’s statements. Considering Li Xirui’s injuries, the police decided to come to the hospital to record Qin Mucheng and Ji Yuanyuan’s statements.
In front of Li Xirui’s family, the police recorded Qin Mucheng and Ji Yuanyuan’s statements.
Qin Mucheng and Ji Yuanyuan told the police what happened.
When the two of them were giving their statements, Li Xirui’s family still had a hint of suspicion in their eyes.
Obviously, they did not believe Qin Mucheng and Ji Yuanyuan’s words.
After recording the statement, the police left.
Li Xirui’s surgery was only completed at 11 p.m. in the hospital.
“Doctor, how’s my daughter’s face? Can it be cured?” Li Xirui’s mother hurried forward and asked.
“The wound is too deep, there will definitely be a scar. However, medical technology is quite advanced now. There might be a way in the future.” The doctor spoke more tactfully and did not say anything definite.
Li Xirui’s mother naturally understood the meaning of the doctor’s words. Immediately, her vision went black and she almost fainted.
Li Xirui’s father quickly supported her and comforted her in a low voice, “It’s okay, it’s okay, there will be a way.”
Li Xirui’s anesthesia would still take a few hours, so it was useless to stay here all night.
Therefore, Li Xirui’s parents and a nurse hired by Qin Haowen stayed with them at night.
After leaving the hospital, Qin Haowen personally drove Ji Yuanyuan home.
Qin Mucheng’s car was still at the back door of B University.
“Don’t worry about what happened today. Your mother and I are here.” While waiting for the traffic light, Qin Haowen comforted Ji Yuanyuan in a low voice probably because he saw Ji Yuanyuan’s expression was not too good.
Ji Yuanyuan forced a smile, “Thank you, Uncle and Auntie. Sorry for making you worry today.”
“What’s there to worry about? If the two of you have nothing to do, what’s the big deal if we make a few trips? Yuanyuan, just go to school as usual tomorrow. If the Li family calls or looks for you, tell Auntie.” Qin Haowen said.
To be honest, he was a little afraid of Li Xirui’s family’s att.i.tude today.
She was afraid they would cause Ji Yuanyuan trouble.
They naturally did not dare to deal with the Qin family.
However, Yuanyuan was…
That was why Shuqin was in a hurry to tell Li Xirui’s family about Yuanyuan’s ident.i.ty at the hospital.
However, he did not know if Li Xirui’s family would listen to their words.
After sending Ji Yuanyuan home, the Qin family left.
When Ji Yuanyuan returned home, Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang were already waiting for her. b
Ji Yuanyuan was taken aback when she saw Ji Zixuan, “Big brother, why are you back?”
Ji Zixuan had been busy with his research project in school these past few days Why was he free to go home today?
“I heard from my cla.s.smates there was an accident at the back door,” Ji Zixuan said softly. “Based on their description, it seems like you and Mucheng were involved. When I called you, you said you were busy. I was a little worried, so I came back to wait for you.”
When she was at the hospital, Ji Zixuan did, give her a call.
However, Li Xirui’s family members were all there, so she was too embarra.s.sed to say anything. She could only tell Ji zixuan that she was busy before hanging
She did not expect her brother to be so attentive and come home to wait for her.
Thinking of this, Ji Yuanyuan shook her head and said, “Something did happen but I’m fine.” ’
“Are you really alright?” Ji Zi’ang hurriedly asked. “Why are you in the hospital?”
Ji Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously, “How did
you know I came back from the hospital?”
Ji Zi’ang sniffed and said, “The smell of disinfectant is so strong.”
Ji Zixuan panicked when he heard that, “You went to the hospital? Are you
hurt? Where? What happened?”
Ji Yuanyuan quickly explained what happened that night when she saw her two brothers’ anxious expressions.
Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Ji Yuanyuan’s words.
Very quickly, he reacted, “Who is that girl? Why did she suddenly appear?”
Ji Yuanyuan shook her head, “Uncle and Auntie are there. I’m too embarra.s.sed to ask.”
“That girl simply likes Brother Mucheng, so she went forward to help Brother Mucheng take the knife? How could there be such a silly girl? Could there be something going on between her and Brother Mucheng?” Ji Zi’ang asked suspiciously.
Ji Zixuan frowned and chided him softly, “Alright, what are you talking about? Others might not know what kind of person Mucheng is, but don’t you know?” “No matter how close Brother Mucheng and I are, we can’t compare to Yuanyuan.” Ji Zi’ang muttered softly. “This is a reasonable suspicion from me..”
