Long Hai said: "Please don't say that. Although it can prove your innocence, these materials certainly cannot be made public. I hope you can understand this point."
Ling Zhenfei was slightly startled and said: "This won't do, if it can't be made public, then what about my innocence? I'm still being slandered online."
Long Hai said: "Once everything is resolved, we will definitely issue an announcent to explain these matters, at which point you will be vindicated."
Ling Zhenfei said: "Hearing you say that puts my mind at ease. If my na isn't cleared, wouldn't I be even more wronged than Dou E? By the way, has Feng Zilong been found?"
Long Hai said: "Feng Zilong hasn't been found yet, which is quite strange. Where on earth has he run off to?"
Ling Zhenfei said: "Feng Zilong has too many people around him, and there are also many secret bases. It's truly hard to know where he might have gone. But rest assured, after what he's done to this ti, if he falls into my hands, I won't let him have it easy."
Long Hai said: "That's good. I will be dealing with so matters here, starting the work this ti from Tangcheng."
Ling Zhenfei said: "Is your work almost finished now?"
Long Hai glanced at the ti, realizing it was indeed very late.
Ling Zhenfei said: "Everyone is really tired this ti, how about I treat everyone to a al?"
Long Hai glanced at Ling Zhenfei and said: "With you, the rich man, we'll definitely have to have a good feast at your expense."
At a very atmospheric hotel in Tangcheng, Ling Zhenfei booked the largest private room and invited all the acquaintances from Tangcheng who had helped this ti for a al, to reward everyone.
He Lingxiu, who had been anxiously waiting for results, Bai Ling who ca from the Provincial City, and the hot-bodied Phoenix, all three beauties attended in full dress.
Long Hai, on the other hand, was more casual, sitting next to Ling Zhenfei. Hu sat with Huo Jie, and since they had t before, they were relatively familiar with each other.
On the other side were Chen Qian and Lu Huanong, who was still dressed as ethereally as ever, but her spirit looked much better than before.
The wine was Ling Zhenfei's Hundred Flowers Drunk, and the food was very sumptuous. Everyone drank and feasted at the table, and the atmosphere was quite good.
However, Ling Zhenfei could feel sothing was off, especially with the way a few girls were looking at him, but what could he say in front of them?
After eating almost all the food and drinking quite a bit, Ling Zhenfei raised his glass and clinked it with everyone.
Ling Zhenfei said: "This matter is finally over. I am very grateful for everyone's concern and the help extended to , which I found very moving.
This whole ordeal got thinking a lot and understanding many of my own weaknesses. I made a lot of mistakes before, especially in emotional matters, causing a lot of trouble due to a lack of emotional steadfastness.
I guess you all saw the stuff online. Although not everything is true, so of it is. That's my fault, my weakness, and I will definitely correct it in the future."
Bai Ling, after listening, said: "How do you plan to correct it? Let's hear it."
Ling Zhenfei said: "The reason I made so many mistakes before is because I wasn't clear about the roles of the girls around . Friends are friends, work is work, life is life, and they cannot be mixed."
Bai Ling snorted with a bit of discontent on her face, but she didn't say anything.
Long Hai said: "Yes, sotis it's like that; life's setbacks make people grow. Rest assured, once everything is taken care of, an announcent will be posted online to clear your na at the earliest."
Chen Qian also said: "There are still a few uncertainties. The death of Nangong Changhe seems conclusive without real evidence. I think it should be investigated further."
Ling Zhenfei said: "Right, especially regarding where Song Jiaqi actually went. If we can't find Song Jiaqi, then investigate Song Jiahui. They are sisters, so there should be news."
Long Hai said: "Don't worry, I'll start interrogating them first thing in the morning. There shouldn't be any issues. What's false can't beco true, and the true doesn't beco false."
At this ti, Phoenix and Hu stood up. Phoenix said: "We owe everyone an apology. Now that the matter is over, we should be going."
"You're leaving so soon?" Ling Zhenfei asked in surprise.
Phoenix glanced at Ling Zhenfei and said: "Why stay here now? Soone has already said, friends are friends, work is work. Since our work is done, we must leave."
Hu also said: "Our job has always been putting ourselves out there, but it's nice to et everyone today, so we had a al together. Now that we're finished eating, we're leaving."
Ling Zhenfei and the others hurriedly got up to see them off, but Phoenix and Hu declined.
As they headed out, Phoenix turned back to look at Ling Zhenfei, with a gaze full of unspoken words, but Ling Zhenfei couldn't comprehend them.
Shortly after Phoenix and Hu left, Long Hai and Huo Jie also stood to take their leave, as the interrogations the next day left no room to delay the night further.
After sending off Long Hai and the others, Lu Huanong was also a little tired, and Chen Qian took Lu Huanong to rest.
This left Ling Zhenfei, He Lingxiu, and Bai Ling. Ling Zhenfei also wanted to call it a night, but Bai Ling was still drinking wine, one glass after another, showing no intention of leaving.
He Lingxiu hadn't spoken much, seeming a little shy about this aspect.
Phoenix's deanor wasn't good either, just drinking in silence, making the atmosphere a bit tense.
Ling Zhenfei said to He Lingxiu: "Axiu, you should go rest first. I'll stay and chat with Bai Ling."
He Lingxiu stood up and said to Bai Ling: "Sister Bai Ling, drink less. I'm leaving now." With that, He Lingxiu left, leaving just Bai Ling and Ling Zhenfei.
Ling Zhenfei also poured a glass of wine, clinked glasses with Bai Ling, and they both drank it in one go.
Bai Ling looked up at Ling Zhenfei, asked angrily: "Ling Zhenfei, what exactly do you an?"
Ling Zhenfei asked: "What do you an?"
Bai Ling said: "Don't pretend to be confused with . Was what you said tonight ant for ?"
Ling Zhenfei was stunned and said: "Bai Ling, don't misunderstand. I was just reflecting on my past actions."
Bai Ling laughed coldly: "Stop with the reflections. Friends are friends, work is work. Isn't that about ? We only have a work relationship."
Ling Zhenfei didn't expect Bai Ling to think so much, but since everything was laid out, it might not be a bad thing.
Ling Zhenfei said: "Alright, Bai Ling, we should indeed have a proper talk about us. We've revisited this topic several tis now, and I've said that I respect your choice."
Bai Ling laughed coldly, "Respect my choice, huh? aning I should leave, right?"
