It was one o'clock in the morning when he received the phone call from Gong Yue.

He leaned back on the sofa and raised his eyebrows. "I thought you'd be faster," he said in a slightly hoarse voice.

"I'm only calling you because I've asked around. That cowardly Steamed Bun Xian admitted to everything when he saw the knife."

On the display screen across from him, the trembling fat pig man, Gong Yue's eyes flashed with a thick disdain.

"Oh, what happened?" Xi Jiange rubbed his tired forehead and closed his eyes to listen to what he had to say.

"You guessed right. That pig, Steamed Bun Xian, said that someone gave him the photo, but that man didn't know where he came from."

It's said to be a young man. I sent someone to his company to monitor him that night.

But it was indeed him who contacted the editor of the newspaper. He recorded it when I was asking and will send it to you later. "

"Steamed Bun Xian isn't the main point. The main point is the person he was talking about. To accept someone else's help without getting to the bottom of the matter, do you think that person is that kind of person? "

Who was he fooling?

The corners of his lips curled up in a cold smile. His aura was even more oppressive, but he was the only one in the room.

"That's right. That's why I kept asking about it. As a result, I was also drunk."

Recalling what Steamed Bun Xian said just now, Gong Yue wanted to laugh, "Do you know what he said? It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, I believe it. "

"If you have something to say once and for all, don't you feel itchy, Gong Yue?"

"He said that because Xi Empire's lawyers were too powerful, his lawsuit would be lost for sure, and they couldn't settle the dispute. Coincidentally, someone came to his door, and he didn't ask for anything in return, so he put the photo in the newspaper."

"The destruction of the surveillance video is the main point. Continue checking." "It's been hard on you. I'll take care of the rest."

He slowly opened his eyes, which were even deeper and colder than the night sky.

He quickly received the recording from Gongzi Jiu. He did not listen to it. Instead, he took a deep breath and stood up.

Sunlight penetrated the clouds, sprinkling the golden light, and climbed through the French windows onto Chen Xi Wu's soft bed.

She was woken by the alarm, rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up, yawning as she got out of bed to wash.

Looking in the mirror, she saw the thick black circles around her eyes. She clenched her fists and cheered herself on, "Chen Xi, you can do it!"

Her insomnia caused her to have no appetite for breakfast. She went out to the roadside to buy a newspaper. Seeing that there was nothing written in today's newspaper, she felt slightly relieved.

The bus lurched along, full and crowded.

Chen Xi Wu stood in the corner, tightly holding onto the handrail. The smell in the carriage wasn't good, so she felt a little dizzy.

All the way, she wondered if she had to buy a car, or squeeze herself into a sardines all day long.

Standing under the Xi Empire's office building, Chen Xi Wu thought about the newspaper from last night and took a deep breath before walking in.

She chose a corner in the elevator and stood, eyes lowered, waiting quietly.

Someone recognized her and started to gather and discuss in a low voice. She just quietly listened and didn't express any opinions, even if she was the person involved.

When the elevator stopped on the fifty-eighth floor, her cell phone rang. As she walked, she lowered her head and took it from her bag.

Before she took out her phone, she heard someone calling her name. "Chen Xi Wu —"

She subconsciously raised her head. Before she could clearly see who it was, she heard the sound of something tearing through the air.

With a "pa" sound, an egg hit her forehead.

The pain spread in an instant, and the broken egg white, mixed with the egg yolk, slid down together, blurring her vision.
