Chapter 47: The Truth Behind the Formula Leak: The Qin Family Intended to Destroy Her for Qin Yunshu
"Let go."
Qin Xingwan struggled, but Chu Li refused to loosen his grip.
Fang Yiwen came over pulling a suitcase and said firmly, "President Chu, Xingwan has already divorced you; you cannot treat her like this."
Chu Li's hand tightened even more, and he turned his head to instruct his assistant, "Bring my wife's suitcase over."
He could not be bothered to waste words with Fang Yiwen, so he pulled Qin Xingwan away.
As for Fang Yiwen, she was blocked by bodyguards and could not get through at all.
Qin Xingwan was forcibly taken away by Chu Li.
The car left the airport and finally stopped at a restaurant.
Chu Li dragged her into a private room, his voice carrying a chill: "Had enough fun?"
For the past half month, his desk had been piled high with photos of her.
At first, it was just her.
Later, it was her and Fang Yiwen.
In every single one, she was smiling exceptionally brightly, her mood soaring.
Chu Li was jealous; he had thought about finding some trouble for Fang Yiwen, but in the end, he abandoned that plan.
Letting her clear her mind properly was more important than anything else.
Now that she had finally returned, he was naturally impatient to take her away.
When the waiter came to serve the food, Qin Xingwan went to the restroom.
She had been brought here by Chu Li the moment she got off the plane, so she urgently needed to attend to a physiological necessity.
Coming out of the restroom, she happened to run into an old colleague from R&D.
"Director Qin," the colleague called out with some surprise.
Qin Xingwan nodded to greet them.
Seeing that there was no one around, the person whispered, "The matter from before about you selling the formula has been cleared up; it was Wang Ming who installed a micro-surveillance device in the laboratory's smoke detector, and he has already been taken away by the police for investigation."
Qin Xingwan had some impression of this name—an ordinary R&D staff member with no real presence.
She had seen the news report while she was out of town and knew that Wang Ming had been caught.
The matter of her selling the formula had already been cleared.
The colleague added, "But before that, I saw him intercept that Director Qin's car, and then he got into the car."
Qin Xingwan felt a shock in her heart; did Wang Ming have a connection with Qin Yunshu?
Her heart hammered wildly.
After finishing, the colleague did not dare to stay long and hurried away.
They hadn't dared to speak when the incident happened, and only dared to reveal this information now that they saw Wang Ming had been caught.
Qin Xingwan clutched her chest, telling herself not to panic; this information was very important.
But she wasn't certain that Wang Ming seeking out Qin Yunshu was for the sake of the formula.
The most critical thing was not to alert the enemy.
She composed herself and returned to the private room.
Seeing her return, Chu Li feigned nonchalance and said, "I thought you wouldn't come back."
Qin Xingwan truly didn't want to come back, but she was afraid that if Chu Li checked the surveillance, he would see that the colleague had spoken to her.
After much hesitation, she chose to return in the end.
"If I don't eat this meal, what if you use it as an excuse to not go get the divorce certificate?" she said, using his own words to block him.
Chu Li's mood improved quite a bit.
Qin Xingwan ate the meal absent-mindedly.
As soon as Chu Li put down his chopsticks, she immediately demanded to go home.
The moment she returned home, she contacted her private investigator and paid a large sum of money to have them investigate by any means necessary.
At two in the morning, the private investigator sent the results.
Wang Ming looked honest on the surface, but in private, he was a gambler who owed a huge gambling debt he couldn't pay off.
Yet, recently, he had not only paid off the gambling debt but even had over a million in his bank account.
After being caught, Wang Ming immediately confessed that the money for the gambling debt and the money in the bank account were "hardship fees" given by the other party.
And his wife had gone to the lottery center today to redeem two million from a lottery ticket.
Qin Xingwan continued to wait for news.
At five in the morning, she received new information.
The two million that Wang Ming's wife won from the lottery was transferred from a private account.
The owner of the account was... Qin Shen.
Qin Xingwan looked at the pieces of evidence on her phone, but she felt no shred of satisfaction from catching the real culprit.
Only a deep, bone-chilling coldness.
Even if there was no familial affection between her and the Qin Family, there was no deep-seated hatred either.
They had set up such a vicious trap for Qin Yunshu's sake, truly intending to destroy her.
She called the police.
After finishing her statement at the Police Station, Qin Shen and Lady Qin arrived.
Lady Qin's angry screech pierced the hallway, "Qin Xingwan, you actually called the police to arrest your brother; have you gone crazy?"
Qin Xingwan raised her eyes and said coldly, "I haven't gone crazy; the ones who are crazy are you."
They had pampered Qin Yunshu to the point of madness.
"Come with me and explain clearly to the police that you two were just siblings joking around, and that you didn't really call the police."
Lady Qin was frantic, coming up with the idea of having Qin Xingwan claim she had filed a false police report.
But then again, she had never seen Qin Xingwan as a daughter in her eyes.
Qin Xingwan shook off Lady Qin's hand, her tone devoid of emotion, "Whether it's true or not, the police will know once they investigate."
"You... you jinx, you came to our family just to collect a debt." Lady Qin was so angry she started cursing, "We really shouldn't have brought you back in the first place."
She regretted it deeply.
They should have just let Qin Xingwan live in Bali Town for the rest of her life.
It would have been best if she had died there.
Qin Xingwan's heart tightened with pain; Lady Qin had finally spoken her true thoughts.
They never had any sincere intention of bringing their daughter back; it was only because Qin Nainai was in poor health that they had to bring the old woman in for medical treatment, and so they had just brought her along as an afterthought.
They wished they didn't have this daughter at all.
"It's too late for regrets." Qin Xingwan suppressed the pain in her heart, hiding herself behind a cold mask.
Lady Qin slumped into a chair, worried for Qin Shen.
Qin Xingwan sat quietly on the other side, arms crossed.
Qin Yunshu hurried over, and upon learning that Qin Xingwan had called the police to arrest Qin Shen, she widened her eyes in shock.
"Sister, you can't frame Brother just because you dislike me." She held onto Lady Qin's arm, her eyes slightly red.
Lady Qin cried, "What kind of evil did I commit in my past life to have given birth to a heartless daughter like you?"
"Sister, let's go home and discuss whatever the matter is." Qin Yunshu advised understandingly, "If Brother really did something to wrong you, I will make him apologize to you."
She still did not know exactly what had caused Qin Xingwan to call the police.
"Yun Shu, it's a good thing I still have you." Lady Qin's tears streamed down, and she glared at Qin Xingwan with resentment.
Qin Xingwan looked down at her phone.
Soon, the police came out and announced that Qin Xingwan could leave.
They would verify the evidence.
"She cannot leave." Lady Qin stood up from the chair, pointed at Qin Xingwan, and said to the police, "This is slander; you must hold her legally responsible."
Qin Xingwan felt a deep chill in her heart, and she sneered, "Qin Shen intentionally directed others to place surveillance at my workplace and sell off formulas, causing massive damage to my reputation. If you were involved in this as well, then you will also have to go to jail."
Lady Qin understood, and she was shocked by the cold-bloodedness of this daughter of hers.
Qin Yunshu's expression changed.
Qin Xingwan knew?
How did she find out?
Qin Xingwan raised her eyes and saw the panic in the depths of Qin Yunshu's eyes that she hadn't managed to hide in time.
It really was related to her.
Qin Yunshu suddenly called out in surprise, "A Li."
