Whether or not Li Sinian truly used the L.S.N. company to launder money wasnāt the current concern. One thing was certain, his somewhat shady background was undeniable. Who else would casually go out with so many people, all armed with guns?
Xiao Man stood up, facing the stern-faced man, "Why is Mr. Li here in person?"
Li Sinian didnāt answer.
"I believe, there must have been a misunderstanding today," Xiao Man broke the silence.
Eleven listened, there seemed to be a hint of pleading in Xiao Manās words.
Was Xiao Man trying to plead for their mercy?
Upon seeing so many guns, Madame Gao was so frightened that she didnāt even dare lift her head. She cried out, "Itās a misunderstanding! Itās truly a misunderstanding! Weāll leave immediately and never bother Miss Xiao again!"
It was rather absurd. Moments ago, Madame Gao was full of arrogance, using her superior numbers to bully Xiao Man. But now, the tables had turned.
When faced with the choice between pride and life, Madame Gao naturally chose the latter. After all, if she lost her life, who could she go to for justice?
Eleven was allowed to leave first. As she turned to look back at Xiao Man, a hint of worry unconsciously crossed her eyes.
She had no personal relationship with Xiao Man, yet the sight unfolding before her eyes was inarguably disturbing.
Xiao Man placed her index finger vertically on her lips, indicating silence.
Eleven nodded.
Xiao Man trusted her because she had kept her silence very well last time.
Outside the door, Li Sinianās men stood as a tall human wall. Eleven slipped out from between them, seeing Fan Fan and Little Five standing not far away, not daring to come any closer.
Seeing Eleven walk out, Fan Fan and Little Five put aside the previous shattered glass incident. They grabbed her hand anxiously, "What actually happened in there? Who are these intimidating looking people?"
Eleven shook her head, "Iām not sure, but Sister Man is fine. You guys donāt have to worry."
"As long as sheās okay...."
...
"Why have you returned empty-handed?" Lin Qiang glanced at Eleven, "Where are the shoes?"
How could Eleven worry about shoes in a situation like that? She had been frightened out of her wits.
"Sister Qiang, I want to ask you something. Was it you who put broken glass in Xiao Manās shoes?"
"Fang Eleven, what are you implying?" Lin Qiang turned around in her chair to look at her loftily, "Are you interrogating me?"
"Just asking. I am suspecting that you did it."
"You, suspecting me?" Lin Qiang stood up with a superior air, looking down at Eleven, "Fang Eleven, are you getting ahead of yourself? Even if you had a relationship with Jin Xiangbei in the past, donāt forget heās now married to Yao Ruoshui. What are you so arrogant about? Who do you think you are to suspect me?"
Eleven stepped back, responding bluntly, "Iām not being arrogant. If the police asked me this, I would also tell them my suspicions. Whether you are guilty or innocent would be for them to determine."
"You called the police?" Lin Qiang was slightly anxious.
"Not yet, Xiao Man stopped me."
While they were talking, Elevenās cell phone rang. Her expression turned serious, "Yes, I was the one who called the police."
Lin Qiangās face changed immediately. Wasnāt the call to the police stopped?
The call had put her on edge. What if the investigation found something?
Considering Xiao Manās character, she definitely wouldnāt let this go. She would seize this opportunity to add fuel to the fire!
Therefore, Lin Qiang shot Eleven a meaningful glance.
