☆, (14 Fresh Coins) Chapter 163: The Truth is Meaningless

Apples. It is said that God had three apples: one was stolen and eaten by Adam and Eve, one hit Newton on the head, and the last one was bitten by Steve Jobs.

He Lele ate the apple Qin Zhixiu had peeled for her in small bites, and the tension in her heart strangely faded away.

Ruan Lin and Jiji went from glaring at each other to looking at Qin Zhixiu together, their expressions turning increasingly ugly.

"Cough... let me interrupt! How exactly are you planning to handle Xiao Sha's matter?" Zong Jieran asked suddenly.

Once this question was asked, Ruan Lin and Jiji immediately looked at Mu Wei in tacit understanding. Three days ago, Mu Wei had said he would handle this matter, but for three days, they had only heard some irrelevant news flying around!

"Isn't... the police handling it?" He Lele asked back.

"Hmph..." Ruan Lin snorted coldly, took the apple that had started to oxidize from He Lele's hand, threw it into the trash can, and took a wet wipe to help He Lele wipe her little hands. "For this kind of thing, there's no need to trouble the police."

"And even less need to trouble you," Jiji provoked, glared at Ruan Lin, and then glanced at Mu Wei. "If you can't handle it, I will."

Mu Wei smiled, ignoring the contempt in Jiji's tone. "Lele, how about going out for a walk?"

Sitting in Mu Wei's SUV, He Lele looked at the changing scenery outside the window in a daze. She thought Mu Wei was just going to take her for a walk in the hospital's courtyard garden, but who knew he would take her directly to the parking lot.

But getting some fresh air was good too. These past few days... she really didn't know how to face Ruan Lin. His smile, his arms, his teasing—many times she didn't know which of her words were funny, but he would already be laughing so heartily, making her smile along with him.

He had told her many things about his childhood—a mixed-up kid who fought and caused trouble every day, talked about his younger brother he was proud of, his kind and gentle mother, and his hot-tempered and dictatorial father. She had heard many things she shouldn't have heard, imagining what he looked like as a child, the scene of the two brothers teaming up to tease their father... Waking up this morning, she suddenly felt a bit afraid.

She was afraid of the feeling of gradually becoming familiar with Ruan Lin, afraid of leaving too many traces of him in her memory—distance was the only thing that should exist between her and this group of men!

A hotel? Seeing Mu Wei drive the car into the parking lot of a large hotel, He Lele couldn't help but be confused. "Mr. Mu—"

"Forgot again?"

"... Wei, why are we here?" He wouldn't be thinking of...

"Heh..." Mu Wei parked the car and twisted He Lele's little nose. "What are you thinking about? I brought you here to watch a press conference."

"... Whose?"

"Guess?"

No need to guess. Not long after getting out of the elevator, He Lele's ears were full of the name "Xiao Sha." Three days ago, Xiao Sha had snatched her clothes and also taken the wallet and phone in her pants pocket, but the next day Mu Wei had returned her wallet and phone, saying they were found in a trash can in the city center.

She had hesitated about whether to call the police; she even thought about whether to use this as a condition to ask Zhai Feiyun to terminate the contract. After all, Xiao Sha was Muse's person, and fewer negative news reports were always good. But after Shentu Mo came to the hospital the day before yesterday and glanced at her, the police came to the hospital to take her statement.

Was Xiao Sha holding a press conference now because of this?

Mu Wei held He Lele's hand and sat in a corner of the venue far away. A top photographer and a young girl with gauze on her head—such an alternative combination appearing at the venue should have been very eye-catching, but it seemed everyone's attention was on the press platform in front, and the entire venue was as noisy as a morning vegetable market.
