Fang Xiaoya pondered: "We had dinner together that day. On the way to send Lu Qian back, she asked me indirectly about the case. Because I didn't know her, I didn't tell her. I didn't expect that she was already investigating the case secretly. I wonder what the purpose of her investigation was?"

"No matter what her purpose is, it will at least not harm us. She can even help us a lot, so I want to go back and talk to Lu Qian."

"Are you sure she won't betray us?" Fang Xiaoya still had concerns.

"Based on my intuition, she won't." Qiao Liang said simply.

Seeing Qiao Liang's answer so affirmative, Fang Xiaoya nodded: "Okay, let's have a gamble, there seems to be no better choice now."

After a while, Fang Xiaoya's mobile phone message prompted the sound. After reading it, Fang Xiaoya said, "Ning Hailong and Ye Xinyi are gone after dinner."

Qiao Liang nodded: "We'll have a meal too."

After dinner, Xiao Zheng drove Qiao Liang home first.

Fang Xiaoya asked Qiao Liang on the way: "Are you and her okay now?"

Qiao Liang knew that Fang Xiaoya was talking about her as Zhang Mei. Although she had divorced Zhang Mei, she could not tell Fang Xiaoya at this time, so she nodded: "It's the same as before."

Seeing Qiao Liang's verbal sternness in front of him, Fang Xiaoya knew that he wanted to abide by the agreement with Zhang Mei. Although she knew that Qiao Liang and Zhang Mei had broken up and were doing it by herself, she could not reveal any trace in front of Qiao Liang.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel depressed and sighed secretly.

Qiao Liang and Fang Xiaoya both understood the truth of the matter, but had to hide it from each other, which was tantamount to them.

I don't know when this torture will end.

When Qiao Liang returned home, Zhang Mei was sitting cross-legged on the sofa watching TV. When Qiao Liang came back, Zhang Mei rolled her eyelids and didn't say anything.

Qiao Liang didn't say anything, and went straight into his room, leaning half against the head of the bed, thinking about his thoughts while smoking...

At this time, Ye Xinyi's family.

Ye Xinyi was locked in the bedroom reading a book, and Ning Hailong was standing on the balcony and making a phone call in a low voice.

"The identity of the person who secretly followed Jin Tao and me was found out..." Ning Hailong's voice was very respectful.

"Say—" a low voice from the phone.

"This person is named Yang Yong, nicknamed Lao San, and his profession is a private detective. He is a college classmate of Qiao Liang and Fang Xiaoya, and he has a close relationship with them."

"What do you think is the purpose of this person following Jin Tao and you?" The man's voice was still very low.

"According to my preliminary judgment, it seems that it is related to Fang Xiaoya's suspicion of the cause of Fang Zhengtai's death, and this person is helping them investigate. Since this person is investigating Jin Tao now, it seems that there is something wrong with the perpetrator or something leaked."

"Aren't the perpetrator in prison? How could he let it go? Didn't Jin Tao give his family some money and do both soft and hard to him? How dare he say anything?"

"I can't figure this out for the moment, so I'll continue to check it next."

The other party was silent for a while and then said, "You need to do three things now. First, be sure to seal the perpetrator's mouth and never let him talk nonsense. Second, you immediately reduce unnecessary contact with Jin Tao, and even, when necessary, draw a line with him and cannot let him drag you in. Third, continue to follow and investigate the private detective. Once he finds out what he knows that is not good for us, take decisive action against him."

"Okay, I get it."

The other party was silent for a moment and said, "Qiao Liang... Why is this kid indispensable for anything? Do you think he is the mastermind of this matter?"

"This is not easy to confirm for the time being."

"You are handling the case, so you can't be sure without evidence, but my intuition should be like this." The other party's tone was arbitrary, and after saying that, he hung up the phone.

Ning Hailong let out a heavy sigh, looking at the cold night sky, thinking about the man's words repeatedly, his eyes getting colder and colder...

The next morning, Fang Xiaoya asked Qiao Liang to meet in a teahouse and handed over a USB flash drive to Qiao Liang: "The results of the previous investigation are all included, including recordings of the perpetrators."

Qiao Liang put away the USB flash drive: "Where is the third brother?"

"He set out early in the morning with an outdoor self-driving convoy. The itinerary is not close and it will take a month to come back."

Qiao Liang smiled: "This guy is Xiaoyao, okay. If the person who follows him doesn't bother, just follow him on a self-driving tour."

Fang Xiaoya also smiled and then said, "When are you going to find Lu Qian?"

"Let's find her now." Qiao Liang then took out his cell phone, called Lu Qian, and quickly answered.

"Hello Mr. Qiao." Lu Qian's crisp voice came from the phone.

"Hello Director Lu." Qiao Liang smiled, "Are you busy now?"

"If you are not busy, what instructions does Mr. Qiao mean?"

"No instructions, I'm drinking tea in the teahouse, are you here?"

"Who else?"

Qiao Liang glanced at Fang Xiaoya and then said, "It's just me."

"Well, is it convenient for this lonely man and widow to drink tea together?" Lu Qian teased.

"What are you worried about in broad daylight? Don't come if you are afraid of losing your virginity." Qiao Liangni smiled.

"Go to you, tell me the teahouse address, I'll go there now." Lu Qian knew that Qiao Liang was not just drinking tea when he was looking for him.

Qiao Liang told Lu Qian the address and hung up the phone.

Fang Xiaoya looked at Qiao Liang with a smile: "I heard from you and Lu Qian's tone, it seems that you have a different relationship."

"You're thinking too much, Lu Qian has a lively and caressy personality, and I'm just kidding her."

"Okay, I'll leave this opportunity for you to be alone and widowed." Fang Xiaoya then stood up and left.

Less than a quarter of an hour, Lu Qian arrived and Qiao Liang made her a cup of tea.

Lu Qian sat opposite Qiao Liang and looked at him with a smile: "Master Qiao, stop talking nonsense, go straight to the point."

Qiao Liang likes Lu Qian's pleasure in doing things, and said straight to the point: "I asked you to come here because I want to talk to you about Fang Xiaoya's father's case."

Lu Qian's eyes lit up: "You said."

"Tell me first how far you have investigated?"

Lu Qian nodded: "Because I found something strange in the case file, I secretly conducted some investigations, first from the perpetrator, and found that the perpetrator's daughter had leukemia. After he had an accident, Jin Tao, the boss of the company, arranged for someone to send a sum of money to his family. This is strange. As the boss of the perpetrator's company, if Jin Tao gives money, he should also give it to the victim. How to give it to the perpetrator..."

"Yeah, keep talking." Qiao Liang nodded.

"Next I discovered another strange phenomenon. After Jin Tao spent all the money to the perpetrator's family to see the child, their family received an objective donation. The donor was not Jin Tao, but a woman. I was checking what the woman's name and identity is, and why the purpose of the donation was..."

Qiao Liang interrupted Lu Qian: "You don't need to check this. Let me tell you that this woman is Fang Xiaoya. The purpose of donation is to show love, and the second is to use this to find clues about the truth about her father's death from the perpetrator."

"Ah?" Lu Qian was a little surprised, then understood and nodded, "So that's it."

Qiao Liang said: "Based on your current investigation, what judgment can you make?"
