Chapter 1445: No One Is Innocent

However, there was one thing Jiang Baobao had to remind Liu Xin'ai of: "If you don't want to get a divorce at this critical juncture, then you must face this storm together with Qin Yiyan."

"Then we will face it together."

Liu Xin'ai replied very decisively, without a hint of hesitation.

Cai Xiaotang worried that she was taking it too lightly and hurriedly reminded her: "Facing this together will very likely require you to step forward and face the public and the media... are you really okay with that?"

"Mm."

Liu Xin'ai's response was very calm, but both Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang could hear the firmness in it.

This was strange; Liu Xin'ai should have been eager to distance herself from Qin Yiyan.

Why was she standing by him now?

What was the motive behind this?

Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang fell into deep thought, and slowly began to figure something out.

And this result even made them reveal playful expressions.

But for Liu Xin'ai, her thoughts were very simple.

She just felt... that Qin Yiyan needed her.

For a moment, the three people, each harboring their own thoughts, said nothing.

The room was very quiet.

It was precisely because of the silence that the vibration of Cai Xiaotang's phone was clearly audible.

She lowered her head to look, and her eyes immediately widened.

The next second, she excitedly said to her two friends: "Qin Yiyan has fought back!"

As she spoke, Cai Xiaotang held up her phone and played the latest news.

It was a video.

After clicking on it, one could see Wang Yaran in the hospital room, sitting on the hospital bed with a docile expression.

And her family members were lecturing her.

They were telling her how to cooperate so they could help the family latch onto the Qin Family and gain benefits.

The Wang Family members were making all sorts of empty promises and brainwashing Wang Yaran.

Cai Xiaotang wanted to throw her phone just listening to that bullshit.

Finally, she could no longer endure it and cursed: "What kind of scumbag family is this? They are clearly harming others without benefiting themselves!"

Jiang Baobao was also a bit shocked.

But she quickly regained her composure and said: "The timing of this video appearing is truly coincidental."

"Indeed, Qin Yiyan must have timed it perfectly! Sigh, he really knows how to keep his cool. If it were me, I would have thrown it out long ago to slap the Wang Family in the face!"

Cai Xiaotang was filled with righteous indignation, feeling that the Wang Family was too shameless! At the same time, she also admired Qin Yiyan's self-control.

As for Jiang Baobao, she noticed a small detail: "Xiao Tang, have you been keeping an eye on the development of events on your phone the whole time?"

"I have been keeping an eye on it, but it wasn't me; it was Li Xiao."

Huh?

Under Jiang Baobao's puzzled gaze, Cai Xiaotang continued to explain: "The gossip has been too dense lately. If I'm not careful, it's easy to miss important tea. I'm always staring at my phone, and my eyes get tired, so I can only rely on Li Xiao."

After giving her explanation, Cai Xiaotang turned her attention to Liu Xin'ai.

And asked: "Xin'ai, why aren't you saying anything? Could it be that you're so angry you have nothing to say?"

Liu Xin'ai had been keeping her eyes lowered, making it impossible for anyone to see the changes in her expression.

Now, hearing her friend's words, she raised her head and said in a flat tone: "No, I was just lamenting that in this matter, no one is truly innocent."

These words... why were they a bit profound?

Cai Xiaotang looked at Jiang Baobao, asking with her eyes: Did you understand?

Jiang Baobao also responded with her eyes: A little bit.

Sigh, even Jiang Baobao only understood a little bit, which shows it really is profound.

Cai Xiaotang didn't waste brain cells pondering it herself; she decided to ask directly: "Can you explain it a bit more clearly?"

"In short, all parties are fighting, and now it just depends on who will have the last laugh."

"Then who are you betting on?"

"Qin Yiyan."

Liu Xin'ai replied very decisively.

And this decisiveness made Cai Xiaotang look at the ceiling and sigh deliberately: "Sigh, someone's attitude when mentioning Qin Yiyan now has really changed a lot."

"I... I'm just speaking based on the facts!"

Cai Xiaotang pursed her lips, nodded, and then continued eating her noodles.

As a result of scooping, Cai Xiaotang discovered that her instant noodles were finished.

But she hadn't had enough yet, so she glanced to the side and said with a cheeky smile: "Baobao..."

"Alright, this kind of food should only be tasted in moderation."

Having her attempt to mooch food denied, Cai Xiaotang sighed again.

And this time, she was genuinely melancholy: "I don't want to taste it in moderation; I just want to feast!"

Jiang Baobao could very well understand how Cai Xiaotang was feeling at that moment.

She rested her chin on her fingers and recalled: "When I was pregnant, I also super wanted to eat junk food, but after giving birth, I didn't have such deep cravings; instead... I really wanted to drink alcohol."

"Why?"

"Because you can't drink alcohol while breastfeeding."

Cai Xiaotang thought for a moment and concluded: "Whatever the body can't do, the brain wants to do."

"That's right."

"Sigh, you two really are such troublesome little vixens."

Cai Xiaotang's summary made Jiang Baobao and Liu Xin'ai laugh.

The atmosphere at the scene became relaxed once again.

Yet behind this ease, Liu Xin'ai was secretly worried.

She felt that it wasn't because Qin Yiyan had been biding his time that he released the video now.

Most likely... he had only just found this evidence.

Releasing this video could easily cause the Wang Family to throw caution to the wind and take even crazier actions.

Then would Qin Yiyan... be caught in the fallout?

A look of worry flashed in the depths of Liu Xin'ai's eyes.

In fact, Liu Xin'ai had guessed correctly.

Qin Yiyan had indeed only just obtained this video recently.

The exposé stirred up by the Wang Family had caught him a bit off guard.

Fortunately, he had bribed a trusted aide of the Old Master of the Wang Family.

The other party had secretly recorded that video with the intention of blackmailing the Wang Family later to gain benefits.

Now that Qin Yiyan had offered a high price directly, the other party sold the video and then hid abroad to live it up.

And with the evidence in hand, Qin Yiyan had Lin Ze handle the subsequent matters.

At this moment, Lin Ze was reporting the situation to Qin Yiyan: "The feedback is very good now; the Wang Family's lies have collapsed on their own, and their reputation and credibility are completely ruined."

Qin Yiyan listened expressionlessly and asked, "How is our company's stock?"

"It has already rebounded."

This result satisfied Qin Yiyan.

In struggles between families, the thing most easily affected is the company's image.

Now, the initiative in the matter had been handed into Qin Yiyan's hands.

He would have a good time playing with the Wang Family!

Qin Yiyan narrowed his eyes slightly, dark undercurrents surging in their depths.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Ze said, "However... some people are making an issue out of the relationship between you and your wife, saying..."

Seeing Lin Ze pause, Qin Yiyan asked impatiently, "Saying what?"

"Saying that you two have been separated for a long time."

These words made Qin Yiyan's expression sink immediately, and he complained impatiently, "Are these people so idle that they have to meddle in a married couple's affairs!"

His resentment was suddenly very strong.

Clearly... this had stepped on his sore spot!

Lin Ze hurriedly lowered his head and continued his report: "There are many similar comments, and I feel... it is the Wang Family playing tricks behind the scenes!"

Jiang Baobao looked at the man in front of her, her heart feeling as if it had been pricked by a needle.
