In the hospital room, Xiao Xiao and Qiu Ye were confronting each other.
Xiao Xiao’s mood was still not great, and seeing soone she didn’t know in the room, her deanor was very firm.
"And who are you?"
"Qiu Ye."
"You with Tang Yuxiu?"
Qiu Ye paused for a mont, then replied, "Don’t know him."
Hearing her say she didn’t know him, Xiao Xiao’s expression softened a bit.
"Then you’re Xiao Yan’s friend?"
Qiu Ye nodded, "A chance encounter, yet it seems like we’ve known each other forever."
Xiao Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Sorry for the earlier attitude, forgive ."
"I understand."
Looking at the unconscious Gu Yan, Qiu Ye said to Xiao Xiao, "I’ve taken the person who kidnapped Gu Yan to the police station. Once Gu Yan wakes up and testifies, everything can be concluded. I won’t let those above suppress this matter; I will make sure that person goes to jail."
Kidnapping, attempted murder, that’s enough to put her in jail for a lifeti!
Xiao Xiao only nodded, not speaking.
Jail isn’t enough; daring to harm Gu Yan this severely, she definitely won’t let it go.
Qiu Ye seed to sense so of her thoughts. She instinctively felt that Xiao Xiao was not an ordinary person. She cleared her throat and said, "If you want to do sothing to vent for Gu Yan, wait until I’ve handled things before taking action. After all, if sothing happens to her under my watch, I’m responsible."
Hearing this, Xiao Xiao gave a knowing smile, "Rest assured, since you’re Xiao Yan’s friend, I won’t make you bear any responsibility."
"Thanks. I have matters to attend to at the police station. I’ll co to see her another day."
"Alright, you’re thoughtful."
After Qiu Ye left, Xiao Xiao’s gaze instantly turned icy, and the room’s temperature seed to drop several degrees, brimming with a murderous aura.
...
After leaving Gu Yan’s hospital room, Tang Mubei was still waiting for Qiu Ye outside.
Qiu Ye originally wanted to leave directly, but suddenly stopped and looked at Tang Mubei, "I have sothing to ask you."
Tang Mubei was surprised, "What is it?"
"Gu Yan, and how is Tang Yuxiu involved with her, and why would Nie Rong kidnap her and want to kill her?"
...
Police station.
After Qiu Ye returned, she imdiately began to interrogate Nie Rong, and called several others to interrogate those four n.
In the interrogation room, Qiu Ye and Nie Rong sat face to face. Qiu Ye appeared composed, while Nie Rong glared at her with great dissatisfaction.
"Qiu Ye, how dare you detain , I see you don’t want your job anymore!"
The Nie Family has so connections in Jiang City’s police circles. After all, they ca from the underworld, and without so connections, how could they successfully launder their background? Of course, the laundering was only on the surface.
The essence of their underworld nature, the number of unspeakable deeds they’ve done in the shadows is unknown.
Perhaps those above are aware, yet no one exposes it; they rely turn a blind eye, because after all, they’ve benefited from the Nie Family.
It is precisely due to the ties between the Nie Family’s head and the high ranks of the police that Nie Rong dared to threaten Qiu Ye.
She’s not worried her father won’t intervene—they care too much about face. Even if he were to abandon her, he’d first get her out.
Qiu Ye crossed her arms over her chest, leaned back in her chair, and looked at Nie Rong’s threats with indifference.
"Miss Nie, we received a report. There was a kidnapping at an abandoned factory in the West Suburb. Could you explain why you were at the scene?"
"I have the right not to answer your questions. I want to see your superior!"
Qiu Ye remained unfazed, "Sorry, my superior isn’t in the city right now. If you want to see him, you’ll have to wait in jail for a week."
Nie Rong was furious, slamming her hands on the table, "Qiu Ye, you better wise up, or I’ll rember you and ensure you suffer."
"Miss Nie, I’m not easily scared. You’re welco to try and see what you can do to . I’m not afraid of you."
Qiu Ye smiled faintly, her entire expression conveying an attitude of indifference.
Seeing that threatening Qiu Ye was useless, Nie Rong’s chest heaved with anger. If her hands weren’t cuffed, she’d have likely jumped at her, maybe even fought her.
Qiu Ye inwardly thought, fortunately, she foresaw this and cuffed her. If they ended up fighting, her colleagues outside would have quite a show to watch.
She had no intention of stooping to brawling with soone so low—it would be too degrading.
"Alright, if Miss Nie doesn’t want to talk, that’s fine. I won’t force you. Once Gu Yan wakes up and identifies you as the one who kidnapped and hard her, there won’t be any need for interrogation."
This statent from Qiu Ye was essentially telling her that what she said was irrelevant, the key was Gu Yan.
The thing Nie Rong hated most was having people associate her na with Gu Yan’s, no matter the context—it always infuriated her.
"You! Qiu Ye, you bitch!"
"No matter how vile, not as vile as you." Qiu Ye chuckled coldly, "I forgot to ntion, don’t think your father can use his connections to save you. Gu Yan is protected by both the Tang Family and the Lu Family. You hurt her, you think you can escape? Even if the Tang Family is just an ordinary rchant family and can’t extend their reach into the police, what about the Lu Family? They’re the leading military-political family in Jiang City. You think your gangster origins can contend with the Lu Family? Girl, stay in jail and go to sleep."
Qiu Ye’s tone was mocking, and she was only short of patting Nie Rong’s cheek to show her deep ridicule.
After hearing what Tang Mubei told her about the situation between Gu Yan and the three, although Nie Rong didn’t have much screen ti, she still did such things, which made Qiu Ye resentful for Gu Yan.
This woman was just twisted in her mind.
Listening to Qiu Ye, Nie Rong felt no worry, only anger.
Why did Tang Yuxiu protect her so much, why did Tang Yuxiu’s friends acknowledge her, even Lu Fusheng’s Lu Family helped her!
Her jealousy seed ready to explode.
Seeing her like this, Qiu Ye inexplicably felt particularly satisfied and wanted her to get even angrier.
"Oh, and there’s more." Qiu Ye’s lips curled into a malicious smile, "I heard that Gu Yan belongs to the Yan Family. Do you know the Yan Family? They’re that huge overseas Chinese family. Tsk tsk tsk, you’re constantly unhappy about her background not being as good as yours, yet she’s liked by Tang Yuxiu. In truth, her background is much more distinguished—coming from a centuries-old prestigious family, compared to a pseudo-daughter from a gangster family, it’s clear to discerning eyes who’s more noble. Miss Nie, your discontent is truly absurd; jealousy is warranted, after all, you’re genuinely inferior to her in every way."
The skill of speaking in a way that infuriates others without consequence and pokes at their sore spots has always been Qiu Ye’s forte.
Six years ago, when she was still a rebellious young girl, her sharp tongue swept through Jiang City, undefeated.
Qiu Ye thought, she hadn’t even used a fifth of her past abilities.
Hearing this, Nie Rong’s eyes widened, and she fell back into her chair, her hands trembling.
"Impossible!"
