Qiao Shinian smiled and said no, and asked Ning Xiaoyue what she wanted to see her about.

Ning Xiaoyue said somewhat embarrassedly that she went to the MQ perfume store in the mall today and liked the limited edition perfume very much, but was told that it was out of stock.

"I heard that you blended that perfume, so I wanted to shamelessly ask you for a backdoor. Could you please reserve a bottle for me in advance?"

Ning Xiaoyue probably felt that talking on the phone wasn't sincere enough, so she simply clicked on the video mode.

After Qiao Shinian answered the call, Ning Xiaoyue's heroic face appeared in front of the camera, "Ms. Qiao, I really like that perfume, you must promise me."

Qiao Shinian didn't expect Ning Xiaoyue to mention this. She nodded, "No problem."

"Ms. Qiao, you are really amazing. Not only did you open your own company, but you are also a hidden master perfumer."

Ning Xiaoyue smiled and praised, "The most enviable thing is that you are so beautiful. No wonder so many people like you. I am not a man, otherwise I would definitely like you too!"

After saying this, Ning Xiaoyue seemed to be kicked by someone. She turned her head unhappily, then adjusted her sitting position and explained, "A particularly nasty dog ​​just stepped on me."

The annoying dog is still kept at home? But Qiao Shinian didn't ask any more questions.

Ning Xiaoyue continued to ask Qiao Shinian about perfume, and then casually said, "Ms. Qiao, I just saw some news about you and Mr. Song on my phone. I wonder if it has affected your mood?"

"I'm not trying to pry into your privacy. I'm just concerned about you as a friend." Ning Xiaoyue explained.

Qiao Shinian and Ning Xiaoyue met twice in total. The first time she gave her a red bean bracelet, the second time she and Mo Xiuyuan helped her get rid of Song Qingchuan, and this time she was concerned about her situation again.

Li Shuyan had been so outgoing before, but the strange thing was that although she resisted the original Li Shuyan, she did not feel disgusted with Ning Xiaoyue, and even felt a little close to her.

Qiao Shinian shook his head and said, "No, these have no effect on me."

"That's good, but where did that video come from?" Ning Xiaoyue asked curiously again.

Qiao Shinian also found the video very strange. The woman in the video could not be her. If the situation in the video was that intense, it would be impossible for her to feel nothing after waking up the next day.

It is impossible for the body to be without bruises and scars.

If the video was not taken of her, then what did Song Qingchuan do during the few hours she disappeared? Where did the video come from?

Qiao Shinian was reluctant to tell Ning Xiaoyue about what happened between her and Song Qingchuan, and just euphemistically said that it was still under investigation.

Ning Xiaoyue also knew that she had overstepped the line, so she quickly said sorry.

"Ms. Qiao, it may be a little abrupt for me to say this, but if you don't mind, you can treat me as a friend and tell me directly if you have anything."

Ning Xiaoyue said, "More friends mean more paths, right?"

Qiao Shinian smiled and said sincerely, "Thank you."

Seeing that the conversation was almost over, Qiao Shinian was about to end the topic, but Ning Xiaoyue asked, "Ms. Qiao, don't you have anything to ask me?"

Qiao Shinian:?

She wanted to ask Mo Xiuyuan how he was feeling recently and whether he was feeling unwell. However, she and Mo Xiuyuan were just ordinary friends at the moment. Wouldn't it be extremely strange to ask Ning Xiaoyue this?

Ning Xiaoyue was probably stepped on by the dog again. She swung her legs and said to Qiao Shinian, "Then let's go out for dinner together when we are free. I'll add you on WeChat later and we'll keep in touch!"

After saying that, Ning Xiaoyue hung up the video call.

Qiao Shinian thought Ning Xiaoyue was a little weird, but then she thought that maybe because she had lived abroad for a long time, she was more open in expressing her emotions.

Two days passed.

The videos and photos related to Qiao Shinian and Song Qingchuan can no longer be found on the Internet, and the related topics have also been blocked.

Since those media and individuals who wanted to obtain first-hand information failed to catch Qiao Shinian, they gradually stopped waiting at her company and residence.

Qiao Shinian spent most of the time these two days accompanying Grandma Huo. During this time, Huo Yushan also came over and stayed in the old house for a day.

The case of Qiao Shinian and Li Shuyan being kidnapped by criminals has come to a conclusion.

On the surface, a few gangsters were looking for money and wanted to extort a huge sum of money from Li Boting and obtain an important project of the Hong Kong City Li family through illegal means.

But in fact, it was a branch of the Li family who secretly did this.

They resented that Li Boting had not shown them mercy when he returned to Hong Kong City to deal with the conflict, so they secretly hired someone to kidnap his daughter Li Shuyan, in order to give Li Boting a threat and warning.

Secondly, let Li Boting bleed a lot and let the important project fall into their hands.

When Qiao Shinian heard the news from Huo Yanci, he couldn't believe that people could be so cruel for the sake of profit.

"Have they been caught too?" Qiao Shinian asked.

Huo Yanci shook his head. "The criminals already had criminal records and didn't care about committing another crime. They denied being ordered to do so. They said they knew Uncle Li and his daughter were in Haicheng and that he was rich, so they decided to make a fortune from him."

In addition, the Li family's side branches were very well hidden and had planned for a long time, leaving no evidence, so it was impossible to have any relationship with them openly.

"So they kidnapped me just because they mistook me for someone else?"

Qiao Shinian thought, "The man who tried to stab me with a knife was clearly targeting me! Whether it was the criminal himself or the Li family's side branch, there was no reason for them to hate me so much, right?"

Speaking of this, Huo Yanci's expression became more serious, and he told Qiao Shinian that the person who stabbed Li Boting had been found.

"What happened? Did he confess? Why did he hurt me?" Qiao Shinian asked immediately.

Huo Yanci, "It was his body that was found. Relevant departments speculated that he was too nervous when escaping and drowned in the sea due to the storm."

Qiao Shinian, "..." She didn't expect this result.

But since the other party wanted to harm her and dared to escape into the sea, he should be familiar with water. How could he drown?

In response to her question, Huo Yanci said that the relevant departments had checked and it was indeed the case of drowning.

"Nian Nian, I have the same doubt as you. You were just kidnapped by mistake, so why do people hate you?"

Huo Yanci's handsome eyebrows were locked. "It was such a coincidence that Li Shuyan was kidnapped by the criminals together with you. She is such a selfish person, but she jumped into the sea without caring about her life. All of this is very strange. Therefore, I suspect that the kidnapping is related to Li Shuyan."

Qiao Shinian thought for a moment, "Then how do you explain your investigation of the Li family's side branches? Will they cooperate with Li Shuyan?"

Huo Yanci said, "There are only two possibilities."

"The information I looked up was inaccurate. Someone deliberately guided me to find it. And..."

"Li Shuyan and Song Qingchuan have been secretly cooperating with the Li family's side branches?" Qiao Shinian took over Huo Yanci's words.
