The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress-Chapter 817 - 318 Extraordinary Xiaoqi_3
Chapter 817: 318 Extraordinary Xiaoqi_3
The hall fell silent.
Bai Lian closed the door and walked in step by step, her eyes lowered to the check on the table.
She reached out and picked it up.
A cheque for 500w, a bold move indeed.
"Didn’t you watch the car surveillance?" Bai Lian ignored Ren Qian, her gaze fixed on Ren Jiawei, "Aren’t you clear whether Wanxuan did it on purpose?"
"I..." Ren Jiawei opened her mouth, but her throat tightened up, as she and Ren Qian had seen it, which was why they were so panicked.
If it were merely a routine car accident, she and Ren Qian wouldn’t be this nervous.
"We will try to compensate," Ren Qian stood up, his voice pleading, "Wanxuan was just confused and panicked, please forgive her this time..."
"Xiaoqi’s legs will have lifelong issues," Bai Lian’s gaze intensely fixed on Ren Jiawei, "If it had been Wanxuan who was intentionally hit like this by Xiaoqi, would you forgive him?"
Ren Jiawei opened her mouth, but at this moment she couldn’t say a word.
If someone had intentionally hit Ren Jiawei, she would bankrupt her family just to make them pay the price.
"Xiaoqi is still in the hospital," Bai Lian took a step forward, Ren Jiawei wasn’t wearing high heels today, and she was a bit taller than Ren Jiawei, the pressure was immense, "Ren Jiawei, have you visited him?"
Ren Jiawei, under her gaze, involuntarily staggered backwards.
She stared blankly at Bai Lian, unable to utter a word.
"Xiaoming." Bai Lian turned around, no longer looking at them.
Ming Dongheng had been hidden by the door all along, and as soon as Bai Lian spoke, he entered, took one in each hand, and dragged the two of them out of building number five.
Ren Qian stood in the cold wind, saying to Ren Jiawei, "Ji Shaorong hasn’t returned yet? What about Mu Zhendong? You should call him!"
In the past, Bai Lian had always been meticulously polite to them in front of Ji Heng.
She considered Ji Heng’s feelings and would not break off relations openly.
But now, they realized, Bai Lian was serious this time.
Ren Jiawei said nothing, just stared blankly at the lit lamp of 103, feeling the palpable disappointment Bai Lian had shown towards her moments ago.
Disappointment...
What was she disappointed about?
Ren Jiawei clutched her chest, feeling uneasy.

Meanwhile.
It had been a long time since Chi Yundai heard about Bai Lian’s cases, the last time Bai Lian and Jiang Fulai jointly handled the Zhang Shize case.
Although Zhang Shize was not smart, compared to Jiang Fulai, Bai Lian could be considered foolish.
But that was only relative to them.
Over the past year, Zhang Shize had become Chi Yundai’s favorite pupil, even though his style was somewhat influenced by Bai Lian and Jiang Fulai. Chi Yundai taught Zhang Shize mostly about obeying the law.
The Jiang Family owned extensive land; Chief Chen took Chi Yundai to the Council Hall, and along the way, the two speculated about who this Xiaoqi really was.
Chief Chen knew Xiaoqi was connected to the Qinglong Bar on Backter Street, "He is backed by people from the Qinglong Bar."
Chi Yundai nodded, but that didn’t seem enough reason for Bai Lian and the others to be so concerned.
This case was a rather ordinary car accident, except the party at fault had a suspicion of intent.
Jiang Fulai and Bai Lian seemed to care a bit too much.
Chief Chen had not yet clarified the details.
The two entered the second floor from the outside.
Jiang Fulai, standing on the second floor platform, had a solitary and thin aura.
"I heard the other person is Miss Bai’s cousin," Chi Yundai whispered, clarifying their relationship for the station’s lawyer, "Should I..."
Outside, Chen Beixuan came in with a young woman, "I’ve brought the person."
Sun Fei had never seen Jiang Fulai, and the flight from Xiangcheng had startled her; in less than five hours, she had arrived in Jiangjing without any transfers.
She lowered her eyes, not daring to look at Jiang Fulai, and simply handed over a recording and a transparent plastic bag containing a hair follicle.
Jiang Fulai turned around, signaling Chief Chen to proceed. His features were cool, "Take Wanxuan’s hair and have the lab rush the comparison."
Chief Chen left puzzled with Sun Fei.
Once they were out of the Council Hall, Chief Chen finally heard part of the backstory from Sun Fei.
This information exploded in Chief Chen’s ears like thunder.

Yunxiao District police station.
Le Shaoming received Wanxuan’s hair from the police officer and handed it over to Chief Chen.
It was then that Xia Yun arrived at the police station.
He had been out handling a case all afternoon, had called the station several times, but Wanxuan had still not been released, so he directly went to Le Shaoming’s office.
"Chief Le, about Wanxuan..." Xia Yun opened the door and saw Le Shaoming standing respectfully by the office.
Sitting in the office chair was none other than their boss in Yunxiao District, Chen Yongkun.
Xia Yun was startled, too taken aback to question about Wanxuan, he respectfully addressed the figure, "Boss Chen."
Chief Chen glanced at Xia Yun, said nothing, just stood up with the hair and left.
Le Shaoming respectfully saw him off, and Xia Yun, puzzled, joined Le Shaoming in escorting Chief Chen to his car. After he left, he finally expressed his surprise, "Boss Chen, why did you find time to come here today?"
Le Shaoming did not answer, only asked, "Was it you who released Wanxuan yesterday?"
His voice was stern.
Xia Yun sensed something was wrong, "Chief Le, it was just a traffic accident, the other party I carefully investigated, is an orphan..."
"An orphan?" Le Shaoming looked at him, shaking his head, "Aside from him making Miss Bai and Young Master Jiang wait in the hospital for a day, do you know who else called me this afternoon?"
"The general manager of Azure Dragon, executives from the Dawson Family, and the official committee of the Xuankang Cooperation Department."
