Chapter 507: Mango Juice, Little Troublemaker, Final Destination (7)





Gu Yusheng stared at Qin Zhi’ai intensely.


Feeling guilty, Qin Zhi’ai felt a huge weight on her and found it difficult to breathe.


Gu Yusheng finally nodded and turned to a waiter nearby. “Check, please.”


After paying the bill and exiting the cafe, Qin Zhi’ai escorted Gu Yusheng back to his car. Returning his car keys to him, she politely said goodbye before walking to the neighborhood entrance and hailing a taxi.


Once in the taxi, Qin Zhi’ai’s breaths became uneven, and her churning stomach made her want to throw up. Before her driver could ask her for her destination, she said, “Sir, please take me to the hospital.”


On her way to the hospital, Qin Zhi’ai called Xu Wennuan.


“Xiao’ai, what the heck have you been up to?”


Thinking she would be throwing up at any moment, Qin Zhi’ai hurriedly asked Xu Wennuan, “Nuannuan, I need your help with something.”


Sensing her anxiety, Xu Wennuan became serious immediately. “What’s the matter?”


“If anyone asks if you forgot your keys tonight, say that you did.” Without giving Xu Wennuan any explanation, she continued, “Also, if anyone asks if I returned home tonight, you must say I did. Also, remember that my train back to Hangzhou is at eight tomorrow morning, and my mum’s birthday is tomorrow night. Please make sure that you get this right and don’t mention that I never came home tonight.”


Gu Yusheng is not an easy person to fool. Wu Hao is his good friend, and he could easily find an excuse to meet up with Xu Wennuan.


If he asks Xu Wennuan, he’ll know that I lied and will suspect me even more, even as Liang Doukou’s substitute.


“Xiao’ai, what exactly happened?”


“Don’t ask me too much now. Just remember what I said. I’ll explain in detail to you later. I promise.” Through her car window, Qin Zhi’ai could see they were approaching People’s Hospital. “Nuannuan, I’ll hang up first. Thank you.”


Other than her family, Xu Wennuan was the most reliable friend she had in the world.


Even if she had killed someone, Xu Wennuan clean up the evidence.


Xu Wennuan might be confused right now, but she trusted Qin Zhi’ai enough to know it must be important.


Gu Yusheng would unlikely ever be able to obtain any leads from Xu Wennuan.


When the taxi finally arrived, Qin Zhi’ai relaxed a bit, paid the fare, and dashed into the hospital.



Qin Zhi’ai was in pain for most of the night.


She hadn’t lied to Xu Wennuan. Tomorrow was in fact her mother’s birthday, and she booked a ticket to Hangzhou on the 8:00 a.m. train.


Because tomorrow was a Saturday, she wouldn’t need to take leave from work, thus there would be no suspicion about her taking leave the day after drinking mango juice.


Although she was still suffering, Qin Zhi’ai left the hospital the next morning and headed to the train station.
