528: Chapter 529 Not Really Friends 528: Chapter 529 Not Really Friends Imagining the scene to co, Qian Xueying coldly curved her lips into a smile, too bold and exaggerated.
It pulled at her wound, causing a sharp sting on the corner of her mouth and left cheek.
Pain twisted her smile into sothing grotesque and ugly.
“Moses is always on guard, I’m afraid…
it won’t be easy to get my hands on that album.”
Qian Xueying raised her hand to gently touch her swollen face, “I have my ways.”
Moses was indifferent and deep in thought, ticulous—a difficult man to deal with, but, once a man likes a woman, he ends up with vulnerabilities and weaknesses.
Xiuyi accelerated the car, “Let’s head back and take care of your injury first!”
…
…
At the Duke Hotel, in the general manager’s office.
When Gan Yuan pushed the door open and entered, Huangfu Jue was poring over a docunt in his hands.
It was a file on Qian Xueying, and from the looks of it, the girl didn’t seem to have anything remarkable about her.
Could it be…
Hearing the door, he looked up; seeing Gan Yuan walk in, he imdiately smiled.
“Are you that busy with work?”
Gan Yuan took a cup and poured him so water, handing it to him.
“It’s not work.
It’s Qian Xueying’s file.” Huangfu Jue passed the file to her, “I’ve found the account details of the one who paid the killer.
The account holder is Nancy.”
“Nancy?” Gan Yuan took the file and skimd through it, “Didn’t she already die?”
Huangfu Jue took a sip of water, “That’s why I suspect soone else is behind this.”
So…” Gan Yuan lifted the corners of her lips, “the reason you were in such a hurry to call up here was because of this matter?”
After placing the cup on the table, Huangfu Jue pulled her onto his lap, and dipped his head to lightly kiss her neck, “Of course, I wouldn’t mind doing sothing else either.”
“Qian Xueying…” Gan Yuan studied the file in her hands seriously, “You suspect her?”
“Until we find the real culprit, I suspect everyone who might be involved.” Huangfu Jue lifted his face from her neck, “So until we’re sure of the true mastermind, you need to stay alert around everyone.”
The files showed that Nancy’s account wasn’t new.
Whoever had access to it must have been very close to her.
The most suspicious persons were Duke Locke and Qian Xueying.
There is no such thing as absolute security in this world.
With an unknown enemy and openness on our side, to minimize danger, one must always remain vigilant.
This was the real reason why Huangfu Jue was so eager for her to co upstairs; after all, it was Duke Locke’s birthday party, and he was worried about her safety.
Lifting her right hand, she took an old photograph of Qian Xueying from the folder, with a focused gaze her eyes lingered on the girl in the picture, dressed in a school uniform, smiling sweetly and innocently.
This photograph must have been an old one of Qian Xueying, showing a more childish aspect than her present self, probably taken during her middle school years.
“However, I always feel like I’ve seen her sowhere before.”
“This is her old photo; have you t her before?”
“Maybe it’s just a misconception.” Gan Yuan shook her head, “If I had t her, I couldn’t possibly forget.”
“I know she’s been getting close to you lately, so…
you must be extra careful.” Huangfu Jue kissed her face affectionately, “I also know you don’t have many friends, but…”
“I understand.” Gan Yuan turned her face to him with a smile, “She’s not yet a friend.”
