Chapter 321: Chapter 321 Giving Her a Choice (1) Chapter 321: Chapter 321 Giving Her a Choice (1) The harsh light aimed at her face forced Xia Xinyu to involuntarily close her eyes.
Feng Qian sat opposite her, smiling, “Miss Xia, where are all your accomplices hiding?”
Xia Xinyu remained silent.
Ever since Feng Qian brought her to this place, she had not uttered a single word, leaving Feng Qian somewhat at a loss.
He tapped on the tabletop, then suddenly stood up and walked into the adjoining room.
He Jingyao had been sitting inside, watching the surveillance feed, which was displaying Xia Xinyu.
“Mr. He,” Feng Qian walked up to him, giving a wry smile, “she still doesn’t want to talk. Do we really have to resort to torture for interrogation?”
“Not necessary at the moment,” He Jingyao responded with a light smile, “You can’t open her mouth because you don’t know where her Achilles’ heel is.”
Feng Qian nodded, “That’s right, so where is Miss Xia’s Achilles’ heel?”
“You take a break for now, someone will come to replace you shortly,” He Jingyao said, his lips curving into a smile.
Feng Qian was taken aback, but could only nod in agreement. He was somewhat frustrated—since there was a more suitable person, why did he have to spend half the day with Xia Xinyu?
Just then, the door to the room opened.
Upon seeing Su Zixi’s figure, Feng Qian immediately understood… so Mr. He had been waiting for the Young Mistress.
He couldn’t help but laugh.
Su Zixi was actually a little confused.
After Uncle Li told her they had found Xia Xinyu’s whereabouts, she felt relieved and went back to her room. But not long after, Uncle Li knocked on her door and brought her to this place.
When she saw He Jingyao, her legs went weak, and she felt a bit shy, but with so many bodyguards around, he had no chance to do anything untoward… so she calmed down and walked over with a cheerful smile, “Jingyao, what did you call me here for?”
He Jingyao laughed as he hooked his arm around her waist and pulled her to sit on his lap, pointing to the surveillance screen, “Xia Xinyu is in the next room.”
Su Zixi’s eyes widened in surprise, “You really found her? That was fast!”
“Didn’t you say you wanted to talk to her once she was found?” He Jingyao smiled, “So I had Uncle Li bring you over.”
Su Zixi immediately stood up, filled with excitement, “Then I’ll go right now.”
“Wait,” He Jingyao caught her wrist, “When you go in later, give her a choice as well.”
Su Zixi listened attentively, her eyes growing wider as she heard more.
Su Zixi pushed open the door and saw Xia Xinyu sitting with her head bowed. Her feelings were somewhat complicated.
Taking a deep breath and carrying the task He Jingyao had given her, she walked in.
Xia Xinyu, hearing the noise, looked up and saw Su Zixi. She paused for a moment.
Su Zixi calmly walked over and sat down opposite her, “Xia Xinyu.”
Xia Xinyu pressed her lips tight, remaining silent.
“Did you know, your father’s business has run into problems,” Su Zixi began seriously, recalling what He Jingyao had just told her, “He has invested all his money into developing Qilles Road, but he doesn’t realize that he will never get the approval.”
Xia Xinyu finally showed a trace of reaction, looking straight at her.
“It seems you already know, right?” Su Zixi said with a slight smile. Xia Xinyu’s response gave her confidence, “Your father is still trying to find a way, but he doesn’t know that no matter how many connections he tries, no one will grant him the approval. So, the longer he waits, the greater his losses, until he can only look for someone to take over… By that time, his initial investments will have gone to waste.”
