My CEO Baby Daddy Keeps Falling for My Tricks-Chapter 795 - 802 Unfolding Secret Life14_1
Chapter 795: 802 Unfolding Secret Life14_1
Qin Muchuan extinguished his cigarette in the ashtray, smirking coldly. "My wife and I are going through a divorce. In other words, we are not on good terms. Implicitly speaking, we don’t keep in touch much. Ask yourself, how often do you meet up with someone you barely know?"
The police nodded in agreement. "True, we don’t often meet up with strangers, but... you and your spouse wouldn’t be considered strangers, right?"
Qin Muchuan shrugged his shoulders. "Once a marriage crumbles, the relationship between husband and wife feels worse than being strangers. At least, with strangers, there’s a chance to develop potentially positive connections. But for a pair involved in a broken marriage, they can only become enemies; reconciliation as friends is virtually impossible."
He made the statement definitively, resolutely.
Then, he raised an eyebrow and smirked. "The truth is, maybe others can stay friendly, but I simply can’t!"
Zhou Ziqing, standing outside the door, laughed upon hearing this conversation.
The two police officers exchanged a glance. "Are you sure that you were with Xiao Qingcang on the 18th of this month?"
"Yes!" Qin Muchuan nodded.
"Well, we will need to conduct further investigations with him. If he can’t confirm that he was with you on the 18th, we will continue our investigation with you, Mr. Qin," the police officer concluded, standing up to leave.
Qin Muchuan saw them off in a tranquil manner. "Of course, as a law-abiding citizen, I will certainly cooperate with the police!"
"That’s great!"
After the exchange, the two police officers left.
As his assistant escorted the guests out, Zhou Ziqing entered Qin Muchuan’s office. Nervously, she closed the door and asked, "Do you think the police will believe you?"
"I don’t know!"
Sitting in his swivel chair, he stared at the edge of the desk, remaining silent.
He appeared incredibly anxious and despondent.
"Muchuan, have you reached out to Qingcang yet? Can he vouch for you? What if he can’t!" Qin Muchuan slowly raised his head, looking towards her with a sense of helplessness. "I’ve approached him; he didn’t question it and agreed to help!"
"He didn’t question anything?"
"Correct!"
"Then we should be able to handle this!" Zhou Ziqing sighed in relief. "From what I’ve heard, he’s pretty honest. If he knew what was actually going on, he probably wouldn’t support you, right?"
Qin Muchuan furrowed his brows and consulted his thoughts before replying, "He is indeed a very upright person. Getting him to lie or provide false testimony would certainly be difficult. But... he’s one of my closest friends, and I share a great relationship with his older brother. It’s highly probable that he’ll be torn. He might not necessarily help me out, but he wouldn’t bear to see me suffer. I think he’ll come to my aid!"
"I hope so!" Zhou Ziqing patted her chest. "Anyway, we’ve already taken care of Lin Xiangwan’s corpse. We’ve buried it where no one can find it. The police certainly won’t be able to discover it!"
"Okay!" Qin Muchuan grasped Zhou Ziqing’s hand. "Thank you...so much!"
Zhou Ziqing embraced his head, her soft touches radiating a motherly warmth. "Why thank me? You’re doing this for me too. I’ll always keep that in mind!"
Qin Muchuan lifted his head and gazed at her. "What about Aunt Hong, whom you mentioned? When can we arrange a meeting?"
"Hmm, Aunt Hong just arrived in city B last night. I’ll arrange a meeting for today. She’s expressed her desire to meet you!"
"Okay, despite my worries, I’m a businessman after all. I can operate in any sphere that brings me profits!" Qin Muchuan declared eagerly.
"Indeed, we really don’t have anything to worry about. After all, ’Huatai’ is only producing drugs. These things are necessities, right?"
"Correct!" Qin Muchuan nodded confidently.
Zhou Ziqing gently patted his shoulder. "Alright, let me arrange a meeting. Meanwhile, you focus on work. Remember to get some rest tonight!"
"Okay!"
Qin Muchuan smirked.
After Zhou Ziqing left, another secret phone belonging to Qin Muchuan rang.
"It’s all taken care of. The police won’t bother you again," Xiao Qingyao’s voice rang out.
"Alright!"
"Okay, proceed as planned!"
"Okay!"
Qin Muchuan ended the call quickly.
The reason he dared to answer a call so brazenly in his office was due to a device he owned. The device could monitor all types of radio frequencies; if Zhou Ziqing had left a bug in the room, it would immediately sound an alarm.
So, he was confident that Zhou Ziqing hadn’t planted any bugging devices.
*********
When Aunt Hong -- who was completely trusted -- finally appeared before Qin Muchuan, he was surprised.
His opponent for all these years had been a woman — a woman he’d seen numerous times, and who seemed to be quite decent.
If Ziqing hadn’t told him that she was one of America’s most notorious drug lords, he would not have believed it. "Aunt Hong, you are so young and beautiful, with an intellectual charm. It’s my pleasure to meet you!"
Aunt Hong glanced at him. "Mr. Qin, you’re very famous and capable. It’s indeed an honor to meet you today!"
Qin Muchuan extended his hand. "Please!"
Underneath, subordinates pulled open chairs for both of them. The solid wood chairs exuded heaviness. Even when moved slightly, one could sense a certain Americanness from them.
The location of their meeting was not a hotel, but a secret manor. Apparently, it was Aunt Hong’s place of refuge — the gathering spot for all top brass of their organization!
The place was enormous with many lookouts outside. More importantly, they were all armed.
Quite formidable indeed; they had managed to transport a large amount of firearms to city B. Moreover, the group had obviously undergone special training and were in excellent physical condition. A direct confrontation was clearly not an option.
As he sipped his Pu’er tea, Qin Muchuan surveyed the layout of the land. "Aunt Hong, this place is truly amazing. The vegetation is so dense, and the trees so tall. It’s quite rare to see such a sight in city B!"
"I too like this place. It belonged to a friend of mine, who left it behind. I never had a chance to visit before! If I had known how wonderful it was, I would have come earlier," Aunt Hong looked outside.
"One downside here is the serious smog. Without the smog, this place would definitely be even better!"
"Yes!"
"Aunt Hong, regarding the big deal you mentioned, when can we start? I’ve been waiting!" Qin Muchuan put down his teacup, cutting directly to the chase.
Aunt Hong smiled, but rather than speak about business, she requested a favor. "Mr. Qin, I have a favor to ask you!"
"Hmm? What is it?"
"I want you to help me investigate someone!"
"Who?" Qin Muchuan asked curiously.
"Lan Ying, the man who killed my son!" Aunt Hong announced in vehement anger. "I must kill him to avenge my son!"
