Chapter 238 - 238: He Doesn ‘t Believe In Myself
In the evening, Li Yan had to attend a social gathering. Qiao Mu stayed at home until late at night, but Li Yan still did not return.
It was 12 0’clock, but Li Yan did not call or send a message.
Ever since the commotion in the office today, she had not seen Li Yan. Even when he had a social gathering at night, it was Lei Yi who called to tell her. Qiao Mu stared blankly at her phone for a while, but she still did not make the call.
Suddenly, the sound of a car engine came from outside the window. Qiao Mu immediately jumped down from the sofa. When she ran to the balcony, the car had already sped past the villa without stopping.
Qiao Mu sighed dejectedly. She squatted on the balcony and rested her chin on her hands as she stared blankly at the empty courtyard.
All of a sudden, she felt like she was being neglected, and her mood became low.
At this moment, a black Bentley Mulsanne was driving on the street.
In the car, the man sitting in the back seat had his eyes closed and leaned back lazily. However, his entire body was emitting an extremely cold aura, like a deep winter night, filled with frost that could not be dispelled.
Suddenly, the man narrowed his eyes and said in a cold and deep voice, “”How’s the investigation going?”
Lei Yi, who was driving, glanced at the man through the rearview mirror and said carefully, ‘”‘ I checked Miss Qiao’s computer. She did send an email to Yu Tingyun.
At this point, Lei Yi could clearly feel the temperature in the car drop a little. He immediately added,” However, we can’t confirm the content of the email. Maybe the email has nothing to do with the design proposal. ”
“Maybe?” His deep voice carried an oppressive coldness.
Lei Yi’s body quivered. ” Young Master, I will investigate this matter as soon as possible and prove Miss Qiao’s innocence. ‘
Li Yan pursed his thin lips slightly. The lines on his face were still firm and cold. ” Where’s Ye Lin? ”
‘ Yeh Lin has already investigated this matter thoroughly. This matter has nothing to do with her. After all, doing this will not benefit her at all. She will not take such a big risk to frame Miss Qiao. ‘
Lei Yi paused and observed the expression of the man behind the car. He could not help but ask, “Young Master, you don’t trust Miss Qiao?”
Li Yan’s cold and charming eyes darkened. Under the dim light in the car, they seemed even darker.
He didn’t believe Qiao Mu?
No! He did not believe in himself!
He had always been arrogant and conceited. Everything was in his own hands, and he could not tolerate the slightest uncertainty.
However, she was the only exception.
She was like a weakness that the heavens had arranged for him, making him helpless!
When he heard the contents of Qiao Mu’s phone call and learned about Yu Tingyun’s arrangements for her, he did not express his opinion and waited for her to make a decision!
He had always held onto a glimmer of hope, hoping that she would not disappoint him this time!
However, when he saw the design proposal that Mrs. Qiao took out, he was already certain that she was involved in this matter. Many of the ideas in that proposal were his opinions!
During this period of time, she had been busy. It must be because of this matter.
At the thought of this, he clenched his fists tightly. As long as there was a little uncertainty, it was enough to make his chest suffocate.
The car stopped. Li Yan looked at the lights in the house and narrowed his eyes slightly.
As soon as Li Yan got out of the car, he saw a black shadow jump up from the balcony. Then, a delicate voice rang out in the quiet night sky..”Uncle!”
