Chapter 687: Chapter 688: Liu Ruyan is Sentenced
Gu Qichen went directly to the headmaster of Paradise on Earth, Phoenix.
Gu Qichen didn’t bother to hide anything, he got straight to the point: “Where is Xia Yangyang?”
Phoenix laughed and said, “Mr. Gu booked a private room yesterday but didn’t want any of our girls to serve him. Now he’s here looking for someone. If you’re looking for any girl from here, I can call them over right now. But you’re looking for an outsider, how can I help you?”
Gu Qichen retorted, “Don’t play dumb with me, where is the woman from Lu You Terrace yesterday?”
Phoenix feigned surprise, “Oh, you’re looking for my seventh sister. She had something to do and left early this morning. She’s a distinguished guest of our Paradise on Earth and is temporarily residing here. President Gu, I saw her rush out from Lu You Terrace early this morning. You’ve spent the night there. I hope you didn’t sleep with my seventh sister?”
Gu Qichen’s face flushed.
Phoenix’s words were explicit, but he knew she was knowingly asking.
However, a weight lifted from Gu Qichen’s heart.
He really was confused yesterday.
No matter how far Xia Yangyang had fallen, it was impossible for her to subsist in such a place.
Gu Qichen knew very well that Xia Yangyang had been living in the United States for the past few years.
Perhaps he was subconsciously looking for a vent for his anger that mirrored her.
Gu Qichen asked coldly, “Where did she go?”
“I can’t be sure, I’m not her mother. She’s an adult, she can go wherever she wants.”
Phoenix was nonchalant.
Gu Qichen realised he wasn’t going to get any answers from her.
But he still didn’t understand what Phoenix meant by her “seventh sister”.
Previously, the surprises of Brother Li and Xiao Shui had left Gu Qichen astounded.
And now there’s Phoenix.
The people Xia Yangyang had been in contact with over the years were truly unpredictable.
After leaving Paradise on Earth, Xia Yangyang went to JinCi Hospital to find Wen Xiaochu.
She didn’t have any other friends here.
But the thing that happened last night was just too absurd.
Moreover, Xia Yangyang was very confused right now.
She desperately needed to find a place to vent.
But she didn’t expect that Wen Xiaochu wasn’t there.
The people in the hospital said that Dr. Wen had resigned and left.
Xia Yangyang tried calling her, but her phone was unreachable.
Xia Yangyang guessed it must be Mu Liancheng forcing his mother and child to move again.
Thinking about this situation, all Xia Yangyang could do was sigh.
Xia Yangyang stayed in a hotel for two days.
She did not go back to Paradise on Earth, thinking that Gu Qichen must be guarding that place, waiting for her.
Xia Yangyang didn’t know how to face him, and there was a lot of work to be done.
She couldn’t let Gu Qichen disrupt her pace.
Two days later, Li Zhiqian came back.
He found Xia Yangyang directly.
And he got everything Xia Yangyang wanted.
And he admitted to all the crimes he committed years ago.
Xu Wan confessed that it was Liu Ruyan and Xi Jiaxin who tampered with Xia Liangdong’s car.
And he was willing to stand up and accuse the two of premeditated murder.
Xia Yangyang was surprised.
She didn’t expect things to go more smoothly than she had imagined.
Xia Yangyang asked Li Zhiqian, “How did you find Xu Wan, and what method did you use to make him confess? As far as I know, he is a famously loyal and unyielding person.”
Li Zhiqian’s eyes smiled warmly and gently under his glasses, “Everyone has a weakness, as long as you find it, you can easily get what you want.”
It was only later that Xia Yangyang found out that Xu Wan had a six-year-old daughter, who was now in Li Zhiqian’s hands.
