Chi Enen bit her lower lip, trying hard to calm herself, and t Li Qiyun’s doubtful gaze, "I really don’t know what’s going on. When I saw Grandfather this morning, he was in good health..."
"Because at that ti he had just eaten the tomato egg noodles you made, and it hadn’t taken effect yet!" Li Qiyun interrupted her words directly, saying forcefully.
Chi Enen’s lips were almost bitten to the point of bleeding. Facing Li Qiyun’s rciless accusation, she was not defeated. She insisted, "I didn’t tamper with the tomato egg noodles. When I made the tomato egg noodles, the hotel’s chef was there. The tomatoes and eggs were bought by the hotel. It’s absolutely impossible for to poison them. It’s impossible for to poison them right in front of Grandfather after bringing the tomato egg noodles to the Presidential Suite, right?"
"Ha, Miss Chi, do you not know or are you pretending not to know? The Old Master has always had a habit when staying in hotels; he doesn’t allow surveillance caras to be installed in the corridor on the floor where his room is located. So, you had plenty of chances to poison him, without even needing to enter the room!"
Chi Enen had no idea about this, and was montarily stunned.
At this mont, Li Nantian walked over. His rugged face still bore signs of fatigue, indicating he had rushed over as soon as he received the news. He rubbed his temple and first greeted Li Beijue, "Beijue."
Then, with the falcon-like eyes unique to the Li family, he looked harshly at Chi Enen beside Li Beijue. The muscles on his cheeks twitched as he spoke restrainedly, "Miss Chi, Qiyun didn’t explain it clearly to you. Let tell you."
"Before I arrived at the hospital, I had already asked the hotel staff to send the hotel’s surveillance footage. The footage shows that you entered the hotel at 9:30 in the morning and left at 10:30. During that ti, you made a tomato egg noodle dish for the Old Master. At eleven o’clock, the reception’s custor service received an internal line telephone call dialed by the old butler. Since there was no response from the other end for a long ti, out of concern, they forcefully entered the Presidential Suite, only to find that the Old Master and the old butler were poisoned, and sent them to the hospital."
Li Nantian had a rugged appearance and his ways were also simple and rough, speaking directly based on the surveillance.
"During this period, the hotel’s surveillance only captured you entering the floor of the Presidential Suite. And the tomato egg noodles you made, I had them checked, and it was indeed poisoned. I don’t know why you did it. Before the Old Master is out of danger, I don’t want to hear your reasons. I’ve already discussed with others, and we can only trouble you to stay at the Police Station for a while!"
He used the word ’trouble,’ but the tone wasn’t polite.
From his tone and deanor, anyone could feel his anger and dissatisfaction.
"I will also transfer all those pieces of evidence to the Police. If Miss Chi feels wrongly accused, you can explain to the Police what that’s all about."
After he finished speaking, he paused, then turned to look at Li Beijue.
"I guess you didn’t know that she went to the hotel to find the Old Master. This matter we..."
Before Li Nantian could finish his sentence, the man who had remained silent all this while suddenly pressed his thin lips together, interrupting him, "I know!"
"What?" Li Nantian was taken aback by his words and instinctively asked.
The arrogant man’s jaw was resolute, his chiseled features as prominent as a sculpture. He firmly clasped Chi Enen’s wrist, as if oblivious to everyone suspecting and accusing the woman beside him. In his falcon-like eyes was an undeniable certainty, "I trust her!"
