"What did you say? The police suspect Yueting poisoned an old lady? Which old lady, from which family?"
"Soone we don’t even know, can you believe how stupid those police are! If they’re going to suspect soone, they should at least have a convincing reason!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Shulan felt sowhat relieved and said, "Stay with Yueting, I’ll bring a lawyer there right away. We won’t let Yueting beco a scapegoat!"
After hanging up, Xiao Shulan notified the lawyer.
This lawyer was definitely a well-known one, with considerable connections within police circles. After taking the case, even on the way to see Xiao Shulan, he had already contacted acquaintances to understand the actual situation. Therefore, upon arrival, the lawyer shook his head first: "The evidence is all there, the situation isn’t promising."
"The issue is, my daughter doesn’t even know that person, there’s no motive for murder. Could it be that the video was fabricated, synthesized, and frad on my daughter?" Xiao Shulan certainly didn’t believe her daughter was the perpetrator.
The lawyer told her the truth: "In such a short ti, the security room responsible for monitoring at the restaurant confird that no one else entered, no one could have tampered with it, let alone synthesized it. Furthermore, according to the restaurant waiter, the fruit platter was originally not ant for that table."
"Are you saying, the poison was ant for soone else?" Xiao Shulan shivered with a cold chill.
At this mont, she finally rembered, there were other people in the restaurant.
"The police are currently inquiring about the guests at the table the fruit platter was originally supposed to be sent to, asking if they knew Miss. The response was affirmative, saying they did know. Moreover, they said if it’s confird that Miss accidentally poisoned the wrong person, they won’t let her off, considering they were almost the victims."
Xiao Shulan’s voice was trembling: "Who is it?"
"President Ou."
Xiao Shulan collapsed onto the ground with a thud.
It’s over, everything is really over, completely finished!
Then, Xiao Shulan chuckled darkly, "How could I not know his sches! He’s using his own son to provoke and agitate my daughter, his only goal with all this is to drive down the price! He wants to sell my shares for a pittance!"
The lawyer was shocked to see her like this.
Xiao Shulan waved it off: "We don’t need to go to the police station for now. We can’t solve this by going there. The first thing to resolve is the business negotiations with the Ou Family."
"Miss?"
Once again, Xiao Shulan bit her teeth with determination, "It can’t be wrong. He had his eyes on my daughter, but suddenly changed his mind and went for Zhao ngjin. If he wasn’t trying to provoke us, then what was he trying to do? If anyone is to be accused first, it’s him!"
The lawyer couldn’t help but smile wryly, as these were all Xiao Shulan’s speculations. In court, cases rely on evidence, not conjecture.
Xiao Shulan climbed back to her desk, picked up the phone, and called Ou Shihua.
After speaking with the police, Ou Shihua was still fuming with anger, especially after learning from them that Kang Yueting was indeed supposed to poison the dish ant for their table.
When Xiao Shulan’s call ca, he glanced at it, originally not wanting to pick it up. After thinking it over, he answered.
"President Ou, it’s ."
"Miss, where are you? At the police station?"
"No, why would I be at the police station? President Ou, you’re quite the joker. I’m in my office, reviewing the cooperation proposal discussed with you. Today, I held a eting with several officials and everyone is very pleased with President Ou’s support, willingly accepting the Ou Group’s investnt."
After throwing out such an olive branch, surely Ou Shihua must be thrilled to waive the white flag in surrender.
Her daughter’s issue could certainly be resolved smoothly.
What she didn’t expect was a sudden outburst of rage from the other end of the phone after a mont of silence.
"I must be cursed to have t you crazies! And you think I’d still do business with you?! My own life is more important. If you want to harm others, find soone else. Only soone with an abnormal mind, haunted by ghosts, would do business with lunatics like you!"
Xiao Shulan was left agape, unable to close her mouth.
Then, a sudden thought flashed in her mind, "President Ou, I know you’re deliberately provoking , I’m genuinely sincere. Whatever price you na, I’ll accept it."
"I dare not take money that’s haunted by ghosts! A madman is a madman!"
Bang!
The receiver slamd down on the other end.
Xiao Shulan was completely stunned.
Haunted by ghosts? Saying her daughter was temporarily insane, strayed off the path, that might be acceptable. How did it turn into a haunting?
Ou Shihua hung up, walked back to Gu Nuan, and said, "If you’re truly interested in acquiring Changda, perhaps we can discuss the specifics, Ms. Gu."
These words did not elicit any reaction from Gu Nuan, while Ou Chunhua glaringly eyed her husband.
Gu Nuan seed oblivious to the starkly different expressions of the couple and calmly replied, "I understand President Ou’s intentions. I need to go back and discuss this with my team."
"Alright, I’ll await good news from you, Ms. Gu." After saying that, Ou Shihua even made a gesture to personally see Gu Nuan off.
Ou Chunhua was so choked up with anger that her entire face turned purple.
