Qin Siting heard the conversation between the two nurses. Without pausing, he entered the consulting room.
s.h.i.+ Niange returned to the 22nd floor. After returning to her room, she sat by the bed and could no longer sleep.
Her mind kept replaying Qin Siting’s cold and disgusted gaze when looking at her. She could not understand why there was disgust.
Finally, she managed to hold on until dawn. She gave Xiao Da a call.
The night before, Xiao Da was drunk in the bar he had opened for many years. He had only slept for two hours when a phone call woke him up. He picked up the phone and shouted, “Who is it? F*ck, I just fell asleep? If you have something to say, say it quickly. I’m sleepy, f*ck…”
“Xiao Da.” s.h.i.+ Niange asked mildly, “When can you sober up? I have something to ask you.”
When Xiao Da heard that it was s.h.i.+ Niange, he immediately opened his eyes. He quickly looked at the number displayed on his phone and instantly sobered up. He must have done something bad a few years ago. Now, whenever he saw her or heard her voice, he would break out in a cold sweat.
“Nian Nian? What’s the matter? I had a gathering with my friends last night and drank quite a bit. I was stepping on a box of beer and was feeling uncomfortable… What do you want to ask…”
“Four years ago, when I handed my phone to you, besides deleting the messages in my phone, what else did you do?”
“…”
The phone suddenly fell into a strange silence.
s.h.i.+ Niange originally did not want to suspect anyone, but based on her understanding of Qin Siting, she could not understand why he had such an att.i.tude towards her. It was fine if they could not reconcile and could no longer be friends, relatives, or lovers, but she wanted to know what exactly was wrong?
“Ah, my head hurts. I’ll talk to you when I’m sober. I can’t remember any messages or cell phone business…”
s.h.i.+ Niange had been in the business world all these years. She could accurately grasp what the other party was thinking.
There was clearly something wrong with Xiao Da.
But he had drunk alcohol and was not sober now.
“Okay, call me when you wake up.”
“All right, all right. Little ancestor, I’ll sleep first.”
After speaking, Xiao Da quickly and decisively hung up the phone. Then, he, who usually didn’t switch off his phone for 24 hours, turned it off for the first time.
After that, Xiao Da didn’t sleep much the whole day. In the afternoon, he drove to Lin City and went straight to the Ling Xiao Group to look for his eldest cousin, Xiao Luye.
Xiao Luye had something on in the afternoon and didn’t have time to deal with him. He only came out at night and found a bar near the company to sit down. Seeing Xiao Da’s almost-gloomy expression, he glanced at him coldly. “What’s the matter? Did you provoke some trouble? Are you being chased?”
Xiao Da shook his head, and after thinking for a moment, he nodded: “Soon, we will be pursued.”
“Who?”
“s.h.i.+ Niange.”
Hearing this name, Xiao Luye’s eyes darkened.
In the past few years, he had stirred up the financial situation in Los Angeles several times. He wanted to help s.h.i.+ Niange gain a foothold there, but she refused. Aside from occasionally helping her to dote on that child, she rarely saw him. Even when she was isolated and helpless, she kept rejecting his help. They were in a stalemate. He only found out recently that s.h.i.+da Group had suddenly moved back to the country.
Why would she return to Hai City? He didn’t need to think to know the answer.
“How is she?”
“I…” Xiao Da had a hangover and hadn’t slept in the day. He had driven over and waited for him for a long time. Right now, his hair was messy and he reeked of alcohol. He looked very disheveled and his expression wasn’t very good.” Back then, when the s.h.i.+ family was in trouble, Nian Nian’s phone was with me. I hung up all of Qin Siting’s calls. I also deleted the messages he sent. ”
Xiao Luye looked at him coldly. Obviously, he had already guessed this and did not speak.
“Then… I pretended to reply to him with some messages in Nian Nian’s tone…” Xiao Da raised his hand and scratched his head.” But I didn’t say it clearly. I only said that something happened to the s.h.i.+ family, and that he didn’t have to worry about it. That you were with her to help her. Anyway… I used you as a s.h.i.+eld. ”
Xiao Luye frowned and held the gla.s.s in his hand, resisting the urge to smash it on his head. He looked at him coldly. “What else?”
“After that, didn’t Nian Nian return to Hai City again? I don’t know what happened. When she returned, she didn’t mention Qin Siting again. It seems like she didn’t contact him at all.” Xiao Da recalled and said, “But at that time, s.h.i.+da Group’s internal funds had already been emptied. More than half of the money that Auntie Bai had invested in had also been lost. It was impossible to support the s.h.i.+ family’s company. Just as Nian Nian was in a terrible state, Qin Siting suddenly sent five hundred million yuan over. He didn’t come personally, nor did he show up. He only asked someone to send money over to support her. But at that time, I was just downstairs of Nian Nian’s company. I saw that someone had come, so I stopped him.”
Xiao Luye recalled something that happened four years ago and looked at him coldly. “So you suddenly asked me to transfer 500 million yuan to you just to use my money to stop his money?”
Xiao Da looked at him awkwardly. “Yes… I feel that Nian Nian should be with you. After all, you’ve liked her for so many years. She has always been stubborn and doesn’t need the Xiao family to help her. I feel that she just wants to draw the line with you and doesn’t want to owe you anything. But at that time, Qin Siting suddenly asked someone to send the funds over. I told the people he sent over that Xiao Luye had already injected 500 million yuan into the s.h.i.+da Group’s account in advance and told them not to do anything unnecessary. I even said that with Xiao Luye’s protection, the Qin family shouldn’t be meddlesome after the fact…”
“Although s.h.i.+ Niange didn’t know what Qin Siting did, she did know about the money the Xiao family sent over, but she returned it. She didn’t receive the money from either side.” As Xiao Da spoke, he carefully looked at Xiao Luye’s increasingly gloomy face. “Cousin, don’t be angry. For the past four years, I haven’t thought about this matter. But today, when the sky was just bright, Nian Nian suddenly called me and asked me a few questions. She scared me… I feel that if she knew the truth… she would really kill me…”
“Oh, right. Also, Qin Siting went to Los Angeles personally and was stopped by me under s.h.i.+ Niange’s name. That day, you seemed to have gone there. The car was parked at the entrance of s.h.i.+da Group. Qin Siting must have seen you.” Xiao Da had a sad face. “I’m trying to help you keep Nian Nian. Don’t blame me, but I really don’t know what to say to Nian Nian…”
Xiao Luye’s face was cold. “What are you going to do?”
Xiao Da looked uncomfortable. “I know I’m a b.a.s.t.a.r.d, but what should I do? If Nian Nian knows about this, I’m afraid I’ll really be on the kill
