Her body trembled slightly. After taking a deep breath for a long time, she realized that this was not just her problem. She also had the extremely smart Xin Xin by her side. Xin Xin would definitely have a way to save her. “Yesterday was already the fourth time the police came to our house. If they do it again, my brother won’t be able to protect me!”
“My parents are already suspicious. We can’t let them know about this. Otherwise, I’ll ‘die’ very miserably! Baby Xin Xin, Sister Nan knows that you’ve always been very smart. Can you help me think of a way? The two of us did this together. You can’t leave me alone!”
As An Nan spoke, she reached out to grab Xin Xin’s beautiful skirt, but the other party gently took a step back to avoid her. She looked at her empty hand and then looked up at Xin Xin’s face.
She didn’t know if it was her imagination, but in that moment just now, she seemed to have caught a trace of impatience and disgust in Xin Xin’s eyes, as if she was some dirty and pitiful beggar!
“Xin Xin…”
“The current situation is not enough for you to panic! Don’t panic first. The police and Xia Wei probably haven’t obtained conclusive evidence. You… we can’t scare ourselves!”
Xin Xin interrupted An Nan’s intention to speak, and the disgust and impatience in her eyes were quickly restrained, as if what happened just now was just An Nan letting her imagination run wild.
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to pull An Nan up, but An Nan was like a lump of dead meat hanging on to her, unwilling to slowly stand up.
Suppressing the anger in her heart, Xin Xin used all her strength to help An Nan up from the ground.
Xin Xin glanced at An Nan’s dusty skirt and continued helplessly, “If Xia Wei really has evidence, how can she let us off? Don’t forget, we still have a key piece of evidence of that man in our hands. He won’t betray his family easily, and the police won’t go past him and pin this attempted murder on us!”
As she spoke, she seemed to have thought of something again. When she looked at An Nan at eye level, her eyes were a little dark. “As for Jiang Xiao and the power behind him, didn’t Xia Wei already reject him just now?! With Xia Wei’s strange and arrogant personality, it’s impossible for her to go back on her words. Hence, Xia Wei said that she doesn’t care for Jiang Xiao’s help, so she definitely won’t let him help her. Don’t worry!”
Xin Xin said this with a serious expression, as if she could convince herself as long as she convinced An Nan.
An Nan looked at Xin Xin and was silent for a long time before asking doubtfully, “Is what you’re saying true, Xin Xin? Will this matter really not be traced back to us? But the rumors online recently are obviously pointing at our An Corporation. The police even directly announced that person’s previous whereabouts online. Isn’t this hinting at something?”
“I don’t care. You have to help Sister Nan think of a way! 1 don’t want to be suspected and ostracized by others for no reason when I go out for work. The two of us are in the same boat. You can’t abandon me…” Otherwise, I’ll drag you along even if 1 die!
An Nan’s last bit of rationality made her swallow the last sentence. She grabbed Xin Xin’s arm as if she was grabbing onto her last straw to clutch at.
If not for the fact that it was not yet time to completely fall out with An Nan and protect herself, Xin Xin really wanted to push this brainless idiot away!
There were only some rumors online, but this already scared An Nan out of her wits. This woman really did not amount to much.
If not for the fact that she was stupid and easy to control, and that she had the backing of the powerful An Family Corporation, she really could not be bothered to be friends with such a person.
However, just as this idiot had said, the two of them were indeed grasshoppers in the same boat at this moment. They were bound together for good or ill. If she wanted to completely escape from this matter, she had to control An Nan!
Thinking of this mess, Xin Xin pretended to be obedient and smiled as she continued to coax An Nan. Just as she was about to exhaust her saliva, An Nan was finally generous and merciful enough to let her off this time.
The two of them stayed in the stairwell for a long time. When they helped each other out, they were even in a sorry state.
Especially since An Nan’s gown was dirtied by the floor stains. It looked like a perfect match for her, who was mentally and physically exhausted and panicked..
