Chapter 887 - She Was Wrong (2/2)
”Where is Devi... I mean where is Chen Hana?”
Xiu chuckled at his question. She had a vague guess in her mind that that's what he wanted to know but she didn't think she was right. That's exactly what he wanted to know from her.
”What makes you think I know where she is?”
”Even if you don't know the precise location, you can still find it out.”
Xiu fell into thought for a while as she continued to observe him in silence. There was nothing wrong with her probing gaze and yet it made people feel slightly uncomfortable. It couldn't be helped, she seemed to want to see one's soul.
”Even if I give you her location, it's of no use,” she finally spoke up. ”She is in vegetative state. It's no different than death.”
”It's different,” claimed Liu Mingfan with his hands clenched in tight fists. ”In death, you have no hope. At least, now, she is breathing. There is still hope.”
”I didn't know you're such a hopeful person,” said Xiu.
”When you have nothing else, you can only hold on to some hope. Without that little hope, wouldn't life be a little too depressive?”
Xiu thought about it for a while before nodding her head, ”Alright. Let's do it that way.” She pointed at the folder with her chin and Liu Mingfan slid the folder towards her. As Xiu picked up the folder, she said, ”I'll inform you about the details of her location by tonight. Also, I'll make sure you get the access to see her as well.”
She didn't know how she was gonna ask Xiao Li about Chen Hana but that wasn't that big of a difficulty. It's not like Xiao Li would refuse her for anything. Her brother was easy to deal with. She didn't know why people said he was difficult though.
After a few more words. Liu Mingfan left. Behind him, Xiu opened the folder and looked through the content. There were a lot of audio recordings, photos and some doc.u.ments. Xiu's brows were knitting together as she looked through everything before her.
”Jiu!”
”Yes?” Bo Jiu was startled as soon as she walked inside the Suite. She looked at Xiu in surprise and wondered what she had done to make Xiu look at her so strangely. ”Did I do something?” she inquired. ”If I did, I'm sorry. Just don't look at me like that. It's kinda scary.”
Xiu wanted to roll her eyes at her but held herself back. ”I won't eat you up.”
”I highly doubt that,” muttered Bo Jiu to herself.
”Stop cursing me and come here,” instructed Xiu and Bo Jiu ran over.
”Yes, boss! How can I help you?”
”Look at this,” Xiu placed the things before her. ”It seems we overlooked something while investigating the Xin family.” Bo Jiu picked up the doc.u.ments and her brows raised up. ”Let's look deeper and thoroughly. I don't think the mastermind is hiding too deeply.”
Bo Jiu looked at Xiu, ”By why would this person...?”
Xiu looked back at her, ”That is exactly what we have to find out. Why would this person of all people do it? It doesn't make sense. It doesn't make sense at all.”
Bo Jiu almost fell over and she grumbled, ”I have to work overtime again.”
”Are you complaining right now?”
”Never! Never ever!” announced Bo Jiu. ”I'll do just as you say. I don't dare complain.”
”You better not,” said Xiu. ”I'll also look through it.”
Xiu's brows were still furrowed up even when she had instructed Bo Jiu to do her job. Right now, she was really confused. She had doubted every single person when she was investigating the Xin family but she never doubted this person. Only this person, she never doubted and it seems that's where she was wrong all along.
