After leaving the Lou Family, Xing Chen got into Xiahou Chunyi’s car.
As soon as he was in, Xiahou Chunyi couldn’t wait to start questioning, "What did Lou Zhaonian want with you? From the look on your face, it doesn’t seem like good news."
"He showed two photos, claiming Xiangsi killed Gu Beichuan. He wants to marry Lou Xinyu, or he’ll expose the photos." Xing Chen didn’t intend to hide it and succinctly ntioned it.
It was better to tell Xiahou Chunyi about this sooner rather than later. Otherwise, if it really got exposed in the future, it would be even more troubleso.
Xiahou Chunyi was driving, but the shock of Xing Chen’s words made him slam the brakes, causing the car to lurch and both of them to be thrown forward by the montum.
Fortunately, they had seat belts on, or they would have crashed into the windshield!
Xing Chen frowned uncomfortably and glanced back at Xiahou Chunyi.
Receiving this accusatory look, Xiahou Chunyi quickly steady the car back onto the road, "Sorry, sorry, your words were just too shocking..."
Xiahou Chunyi knew he had lost his composure, but he couldn’t suppress his overwhelming curiosity.
"So... you didn’t agree?"
"Do you think I would agree?" Xing Chen sneered. Why would he agree to sothing so insignificant?
If he had known it would turn out like this, he wouldn’t have co today at all.
"But... why would Lou Zhaonian falsely accuse Xiangsi of murder out of nowhere? Unless..." Xiahou Chunyi was just suspicious.
After all, there’s no smoke without fire...
But just as he showed a slight suspicion towards Ran Xiangsi, Xing Chen interrupted him directly.
"She couldn’t possibly kill anyone. She released Gu Beichuan; this, I know."
"You trust her that much? Everyone has a dark side. After what happened last ti... can she really let it go?" Xiahou Chunyi raised his eyebrows. This matter was extraordinary, and even if Xing Chen didn’t like hearing it, he had to voice all possible concerns to prevent Xing Chen from regretting his trust in a woman later.
But this ti, it was evident that Xiahou Chunyi was overthinking it.
Xing Chen understood Ran Xiangsi and knew she would never do such a thing.
Moreover, if she had really killed Gu Beichuan, she wouldn’t have been so relaxed when she saw him that night.
"That night, Gu Beichuan didn’t touch Xiangsi. There was a surveillance cara in his room, and Xiangsi later found the footage." Xing Chen didn’t usually bother to explain to anyone because it didn’t matter if others knew. What was important was that he knew.
However, now it seed necessary to explain it to Xiahou Chunyi.
"I see..." Xiahou Chunyi finally nodded in understanding, "So you an Xiangsi had no motive to kill? That’s good. No matter how much the Lou Family causes trouble, it’s impossible to fabricate a murder she didn’t commit, right?"
"Brother, I’ll have to trouble you with this matter." Xing Chen leaned back in the passenger seat and spoke calmly.
He never sought help from anyone, and since maturing, he rarely called Xiahou Chunyi ’Brother.’
Now that he made this request, how could Xiahou Chunyi refuse after listening?
His grip on the steering wheel tightened slightly, and for once, Xiahou Chunyi beca serious, the smile vanishing from his lips.
