Chapter 483 The One Suspected

Chapter 487 Qi Xuan Went Mad

Qi Xuan suddenly thought of Shang Shaoyan and stood up abruptly.

"A Can, was Shang Shaoyan killed by Zi Yisheng? Where did you bury his body?"

A Can lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and then spoke.

"How did you get to the mainland?"

"As long as there's money, nothing is impossible."

"Where did you find the people you hired to kill Young Master Zi? As someone unfamiliar with the area, you wouldn't be able to contact those people so easily."

Qi Xuan slowly sat down and smiled at A Can.

"You want to know? Then exchange question for question."

"No need, we're already keeping an eye on the person you found anyway."

Qi Xuan hated the indifferent attitude of people like A Can. Even Li Cheng in Mishi was the same. She went to Li Cheng wanting to cross the sea, but Li Cheng acted as if he didn't know her. He didn't even glance at the tens of thousands of yuan she offered.

Qi Xuan endured and endured, then knelt directly before A Can.

"Since I've been captured by you, I only ask to see Shang Shaoyan's tomb. Afterwards, I'll accept whatever you decide."

A Can threw his cigarette butt, stomped it out, and then sneered.

"Qi Xuan, I truly pity Uncle Qi. In the end, all you want to see is Shang Shaoyan. Have you never thought about your grandfather having no one to pay respects to?"

Qi Xuan's expression contorted, as if A Can's words were tormenting her.

"It's none of your business. I'll visit my grandfather later."

"Hehehe, Qi Xuan, how naive you are to think you'll have a chance to get out."

"What do you mean? At most, you'll deport me back to Mishi. Don't forget, I'm not from your country."

"But what you've done is enough to get you killed a hundred times over."

Qi Xuan fell from her chair, looking at A Can in disbelief.

"Zi Yisheng wants to kill me?"

"You deserve to die. Just illegal immigration alone is enough to convict you as a spy, not to mention your involvement with illegal organizations for assassination. You'll never walk out of prison in this lifetime."

"No, that can't be. I want to go back to Mishi. You have no right to judge me."

A Can stood up. He didn't have to come here. It was partly out of respect for his acquaintance with Uncle Qi.

Seeing A Can leave just like that, Qi Xuan's entire demeanor changed, as if she had gone mad.

"I don't want this. I want to get out. Let me out."

"No, I want to see Ye Shenggge. Let Ye Shenggge see me, please, A Can, please!"

A Can left decisively. The thought of seeing Madam was a pipe dream.

Ye Shenggge personally sent the child to class before leaving. Today, it was A Sen who accompanied her.

"Are you all fully prepared?"

"We are ready. The other party met with several accomplices last night. Today, as soon as they enter the school, we can apprehend them all."

Ye Shenggge nodded. If she weren't worried about alerting their accomplices still in Mingcheng, she wouldn't have sent her child to school today.

"Madam, don't worry. We will interrogate those apprehended today at the school, and they will surely reveal all their secrets."

"Yes, please keep the truth serum I gave you safe. If it's discovered, Young Master Zi will be disciplined."

"We've secured them. We won't use them lightly until the last moment."

Ye Shenggge sat down in her office, rubbing her temples. She never imagined that the medicine she made would one day become a forbidden substance.

Composing herself, Ye Shenggge took her materials to the laboratory. According to the plan, she and Zi Yisheng would depart in three days. The schedule for meeting foreign guests generally could not be changed at will, so she had to provide answers to the new drug issues within three days.

Wen Gu looked at Ye Shenggge with a hint of smugness and excitement. It was as if after today, she would never have to see Ye Shenggge again. This immediately put Ye Shenggge on guard.

Especially concerning anything she could access in the laboratory, she tried her best not to touch it.

"If you have any questions about the new drug, ask me quickly within these three days. I'll be going on a long trip in three days, at least for a month. I don't want to delay everyone's progress."

Soon, Ye Shenggge began the one-on-one explanation session, while also diverting some of her attention to Wen Gu.

Just as Ye Shenggge was speaking until her throat was dry, Wen Gu handed her a cup of water with a look of concern.

"Miss Ye, you must be thirsty. Have some water and rest for a while."

"Thank you. Please put it on the table. I'll drink it later."

Seeing Ye Shenggge finish speaking and then busy herself with experimental equipment with someone else, Wen Gu could only place the cup of water next to Ye Shenggge.

Ye Shenggge glanced at the cup and used her body to shield it, quickly transferring the water into a cup within her space, and then refilled it with ordinary water.

As she turned, she accidentally knocked the cup to the floor.

"Oh my, you scared me to death."

Ye Shenggge nimbly dodged the crisis of getting her trouser legs splashed with water.

"I was so careless. Please, Wen Gu, could you mop the floor first? I'm afraid everyone might slip later."

Wen Gu stood up the moment the cup hit the floor. Why was everything going so wrong for her?

Ye Shenggge saw Wen Gu reluctantly go out to get a mop, then casually walked to everyone's experimental area. As she passed Wen Gu's table, she covered her cup with her hand, swapped her water, and then continued her work as if nothing had happened.

When Wen Gu returned, she went to pour another cup of water for Ye Shenggge. Before she could hand it to Ye Shenggge, she saw Ye Shenggge about to open the door to leave.

"Miss Ye, aren't you going to drink water?"

"Oh, I'll drink it in my office."

Wen Gu watched Ye Shenggge's retreating back, almost crushing the cup. Angrily, she poured the water from the cup into the trash can.

The other people in the laboratory exchanged knowing glances, some with disdain, others with helpless amusement. After witnessing Wen Gu's behavior for the past two days, they had basically ostracized her.
