Chapter 141: Zhang Xinlv has confessed, it was him who did it

Bai Shunan inserted the straw into the yogurt for him, then handed it to him, "Distance makes the heart grow fonder, men have always been like this. But I haven't thought about you; women and men are different. When a woman truly decides she doesn't want to think about someone, then that person is as good as dead."

Gu Yunting took the milk and, knowing better, did not continue the conversation, lest he annoy her.

This flight had tablets with large screens, which contained many TV dramas and movies, as well as variety shows.

Bai Shunan randomly clicked on a variety show, only to find that Mo Wanqing was also in it. Her current persona was that of a beautiful, strong, yet tragic figure, serving as an emotional consultant on the show and passing judgment on other people playing young couples.

Gu Yunting, sitting to the side, naturally saw it too. He sipped his yogurt as if it had nothing to do with him.

Bai Shunan then asked him, "I heard Wanqing is quite popular lately, she took on a TV drama and played the female lead?"

Gu Yunting said, "It has nothing to do with me, I'm not very clear on it; I haven't paid attention to her for a long time."

That was also because of his popularity; if not for his forceful promotion, she wouldn't have had any fame.

Bai Shunan didn't know why, but thinking of all the grievances from before, she couldn't help but hold back a breath in her heart. Usually generous, she actually regretted giving him the bread.

No, that wasn't right either; the bread was his to begin with.

She disdainfully placed his food container onto his table with a "slap," then opened her own, pulled up a movie, and watched while eating, ignoring Gu Yunting entirely.

A smile, however, slowly spilled from the corners of Gu Yunting's mouth.

……

After Bai Shuruo came out of the detention center, she saw that dawn was almost breaking, so she went straight back to the company with Meng Ze.

Just as they exited the elevator, she saw someone standing at the office door, and it was someone wearing a skirt.

She originally thought it was one of the secretaries, but the person immediately walked toward them upon seeing Meng Ze.

Only then did Bai Shuruo see clearly that it was Han Jiani.

She did not have access to the president's office, so she could only wait outside.

Bai Shuruo was wondering why Han Jiani was here, only to find her heading straight for Meng Ze.

"Meng Ze, do you think it's interesting to keep me hanging like this?" Han Jiani questioned.

Bai Shuruo paused.

Meng Ze was keeping Han Jiani hanging? Had she missed something?

Looking at Meng Ze again, his playboy face was full of disdain.

"I didn't keep you hanging; on the contrary, do you think it's interesting to keep pestering me?"

"Then what was the meaning of you kissing me that night?"

"You don't know what it meant? If you hadn't come over to disgust me, would I have kissed you?"

"You... then why did you have to kiss me so affectionately?"

"Just playing around; it's no fun if you don't play for real!" Meng Ze said.

Han Jiani was so embarrassed and angry that she raised her hand and quickly slapped Meng Ze across the face with a "slap."

Meng Ze did not yield and also returned a slap to Han Jiani with a "slap."

"You, you hit a woman?" Han Jiani raised her face, looking at Meng Ze in disbelief.

Bai Shuruo also looked at Meng Ze in disbelief.

However, based on her understanding of Meng Ze, he was the type of person who could do such things.

Meng Ze remained calm and indifferent as he said, "I did hit you, so what?"

Han Jiani covered her face and said in a fit of rage, "Meng Ze, it's my loss for waiting here for you for so long. I thought you were the kind of upright gentleman who takes responsibility after doing something. I didn't expect you to be the kind of petty man who wipes his mouth clean after eating and just walks away. I curse you to never be able to marry a wife in this life. I never want to see you again. I'm going abroad in a few days; I never knew you."

After Han Jiani finished scolding him, she looked at Meng Ze's reaction, wanting to see a trace of reluctance in his eyes.

However, Meng Ze's face remained indifferent: "Go slowly, I won't see you out."

"You..."

Han Jiani looked at Meng Ze, then glanced at Bai Shuruo, and subsequently said to Bai Shuruo, "Bai Shuruo, he has slept with me. Don't you cheat just because the eldest cousin is currently incapacitated; Meng Ze is not a good person."

After saying this, she turned and left.

Bai Shuruo felt like she had watched an absurd play.

She looked at Meng Ze again and asked, "You and her..."

"Don't listen to her, there's nothing to it."

"You kissed her?"

"I did, but she was the one who seduced me first; it wasn't my intention."

Bai Shuruo smiled faintly, scanned her face to enter the president's office, and then said, "This Han Jiani is my husband's cousin; I can tell she is interested in you."

"But I have no interest in her," Meng Ze said as he followed her in.

Bai Shuruo said, "Then that's that. By the way, she said she's going abroad in a few days?"

"Did she say that?" Meng Ze said, "I didn't pay attention to what she was saying."

"She said it," Bai Shuruo said firmly.

At the same time, her gaze turned cold.

Weren't Han Jiani and these people racking their brains to stay in the company? Why are they suddenly going abroad? Going abroad would take at least ten days to half a month, right? Is she taking leave or resigning?

Bai Shuruo instructed Meng Ze, "Ask the Human Resources Department if Han Jiani has resigned. I suspect the Han Family Second Branch is involved in the matter of the private seal."

Meng Ze immediately set out to handle it.

……

The Han Family members had indeed prepared to go abroad.

Han Jiani had not resigned, and Han Ketian and the others had not come to the company today either.

The Han Family Second Branch also had a private jet; they could leave whenever they wanted.

It was said that Han Jinbu had already gone abroad yesterday, perhaps preparing to withdraw one after another.

Bai Shuruo and Meng Ze were still investigating when, in the afternoon, Ali called Bai Shuruo, "Young Mistress, Zhang Xinlv has confessed; the person behind him is Han Chunqiu."

Bai Shuruo said, "I also guessed it was him, so has he been arrested now?"

"He has gone into hiding," Ali said. "However, the police have already issued a full-scale wanted notice for him; I believe he will be caught very soon. There is one more thing..."

"What is it?" Bai Shuruo asked hurriedly.

"The person who caused Mr. Han's car accident is also him. Now the evidence is conclusive, he cannot deny it."

Bai Shuruo could not help but grip her phone tightly.

It really was him!

After Bai Shuruo hung up the phone, she called Meng Ze in.

Meng Ze was still investigating Han Chunqiu's affairs. Since he was new here and had not yet built up connections in various areas, he naturally did not have the same capability as Ali.

But his intuition was also very accurate: "Bai Vice President, the person behind Zhang Xinlv is likely Han Chunqiu, your second paternal uncle."

"I know, Zhang Xinlv has already confessed and named him," Bai Shuruo said.

"Bai Vice President, your complexion looks very pale," Meng Ze said.

Bai Shuruo said powerlessly, "My husband's car accident was also single-handedly orchestrated by this Han Chunqiu."

Meng Ze looked at Bai Shuruo and asked, "You find it very hard to understand such things, right? They are clearly relatives, yet he actually did such a thing to his nephew."

Bai Shuruo smiled helplessly: "As expected, having too much money in the family is not a good thing. In the future, if I have children, I will just have one, so that future descendants won't have to fight over property."

A meaningful expression flashed across Meng Ze's face.
