Although they were all taken away, their treatments were obviously different.

There was a cup of fragrant hot tea in front of Pei Yan, and there was only a lamp in front of Lin Man. After a brief inquiry, Pei Yan left. Before leaving, he glanced at Lin Man but said nothing.

"That's what happened. I've told you everything I know. The fingerprints on her hands were left by Xiaojun when he was saving someone."

The female police officer said softly, "Okay, we got it. Please go back first. If there is anything we need to assist with the investigation, we will contact you again, okay?"

"Okay, I'm going to go talk to my friend and then leave. It's her first time here, so she's a bit nervous."

On the contrary, Lin Man used to come here often.

Xiaojun sat on the chair, her eyes red, a little at a loss. It was obvious that she was also panicking. Seeing Lin Man, she quickly stood up and grabbed Lin Man's hand and refused to let go. "Manman, did I really push her? But I clearly remember that she was about to fall backwards. I thought she was not standing firmly, so I just wanted to grab her. How could this happen?"

In the police station, Lin Man didn't know what to say, so he could only pat her hands and comfort her, "You're not mistaken, she fell down by herself, just tell the truth, I'm going to go out for a while, and I'll pick you up later."

After saying this, Lin Man left the police station with her bag.

boom--

She pushed open the door to the fire escape, only to see a familiar figure.

She didn't expect to meet Pei Yan smoking in the corridor.

"Boss Pei is really free. He didn't go to the hospital to visit the injured, nor did he deal with the public opinion of the Pei family. Instead, he was smoking here."

Lin Man was supposed to be working against the clock, but suddenly she saw Pei Yan, so she couldn't help but ridicule him.

Hearing the voice, Pei Yan turned around. He looked at Lin Man without any surprise. Instead, he slowly put out the cigarette and said, "I'm worried and don't want to do anything."

“… … .?”

Lin Man gave Pei Yan a strange look. Who cares whether he has something on his mind or not?

"Why don't you call me which floor you want to go to? I'll ask Han Ming to pick you up. Aren't you tired from climbing to the 17th floor?"

Lin Man was holding her breath at first, but now when she heard Pei Yan say this, she felt like her chest was about to explode. She didn't want to talk nonsense with Pei Yan, so she glanced at the person in front of her coldly and said, "Pei Yan, you are the most suitable person to act."

Now that Ye Qingqing is not around, he changes his attitude again?

Pei Yan did not stop him. Lin Man walked to the workstation, grabbed Ye Qingyu who was still working, and took her directly to the tea room. She was a little surprised, "Manman? You're looking for me?"

Lin Man's hand was still tightly holding her wrist, and it even hurt. Ye Qingyu struggled a little. Lin Man didn't waste any words and directly stated her purpose.

"Your sister fell down the stairs by herself, but she accused Yao Xiaojun of doing it. Now I want you to write a settlement agreement as a family member to prove that both parties have reached an agreement."

Lin Man said a lot of things, but Ye Qingyu's face changed. She grabbed Lin Man's wrist and said, "What did you say? Qingqing fell down the stairs? Where is she now? Is there any possibility? No... I want to go see her!"

Ye Qingyu's eyes were dull, and he was about to leave in a daze, but Lin Man pushed him against the wall. The cold wall made Ye Qingyu think more clearly, "Manman, tell me what happened. Where is Qingqing now? Is she injured? Is there anyone taking care of her?"

"Qingqing has been..."

"That's enough." Lin Man interrupted impatiently, "I don't have time to listen to you talk about Ye Qingqing's tragic childhood experience. She has now been sent to Hai City Hospital. Your good President Pei has hired a nurse, under the pretext of taking care of employees, but you know I'm not that easy to fool. This is the retribution for her framing others! Doesn't your family have a family education that you have to pay back what you owe to others? I wonder how you plan to pay back the debt owed by Ye Qingqing?"

"Manman...are you telling the truth? Did Qingqing really fall down on purpose? How could Qingqing..." Ye Qingyu's lips trembled. She couldn't believe it. In her memory, her sister was such a sunny and kind person. How could she do such a thing?

Ye Qingyu instinctively didn't want to believe it, but she felt that there was no need for Lin Man to lie to her. At this moment, Ye Qingyu's heart felt like it was torn apart and was extremely painful. On the one hand, she was worried about her sister, and on the other hand, she was worried that it would not end well in the end.

"This is the truth of the matter. If you write the reconciliation letter as a family member, the matter will end here. Otherwise, even if you don't write it, the evidence that Yao Xiaojun pushed your sister is still insufficient, and I will testify for her to prove that Yao Xiaojun did not push Ye Qingqing."

Ye Qingyu covered her face with her hands and cried, unable to express herself. "I don't know what happened. It's just that since the family owed a large debt, Qingqing has become a different person. I know she hates our family and hates us for dragging her down. She hates that others her age are shopping and watching movies, but she can only work to raise tuition. After finally raising the tuition, my father fell ill and spent all her tuition... What should I do!"

Lin Man took out the printed reconciliation agreement and handed it to her. "The only thing you can do now is to make amends for your sister and prevent innocent people from getting hurt. Her sins can also be alleviated."

Ye Qingyu looked at the paper in front of her. The three words "Settlement Agreement" suddenly became glaring, like a sharp blade piercing her heart. With trembling hands, she slowly took the paper in front of her, but suddenly stepped back, shaking her head.

"No, I can't sign it." She wiped her tears and calmed down. "Qingqing has been hurt, I can't let her get hurt again. Besides, didn't you just say that even without this settlement agreement, the evidence to convict your friend is insufficient? In this case, whether or not I have this agreement should not affect the outcome..."

"I...can't sign." Ye Qingyu shook his head blankly.

"ill."

Lin Man forcibly moved Ye Qingyu's head and made her face her. "Ye Qingyu, you'd better sign it. If you don't sign it, I will spread the news about what your sister did. Rumors are terrible. Even if your sister's fragile heart is mature, what about your parents? Your own daughter got such a good job, and now she is working for Pei Yan. Such a good thing should be known to them. Let's all be happy together, right?"

Lin Man took out a stack of photos. She had been squatting for several hours but couldn't find any photos of Pei Yan and Ye Qingqing behaving inappropriately, so in order to deceive Ye Qingyu, she could only synthesize some photos.

But it was enough to make Ye Qingyu believe it.

As soon as Ye Qingyu saw those photos, she immediately hid them in her arms. Lin Man looked at her reaction. Maybe Ye Qingyu didn't know what Ye Qingqing had done, but she was not a fool and could always guess something.

In the end, Ye Qingyu signed the settlement agreement as a family member.

Lin Man quickly rushed to the police station, only to find that Xiaojun had been released on bail.

She looked shocked. "Where is she? Who bailed her out?"

Is it Pei Yan?

But he obviously didn't want to get involved in this matter today, otherwise he wouldn't have come to the police station for tea.

The female police officer said gently, "She has already gone back. We cannot disclose who bailed her out. We just received a notice from above to act."

"Thanks……"

"Manman!" Xiaojun's voice rang out.

She held Zhao Yao's hand and stood in front of Lin Man with a touched look on her face. Tears rolled down her cheeks and she threw herself into Lin Man's arms. "Thank you, Manman! I know you must have gone to see Mr. Pei just now, right? Thank him for me... I really didn't expect that he would care about me. I'm sorry to have caused you trouble..."

Zhao Yao said: "I know Xiaojun was even shocked when he was taken away for questioning. Fortunately, Xiaojun is fine now. We should thank him."

Lin Man was a little confused, "You mean... Pei Yan bailed you out?"

"Isn't it?" Xiaojun looked puzzled. "I thought you just left to ask Mr. Pei for help."

Lin Man felt helpless. She did meet Pei Yan, but she just saw him acting crazy in the corridor because he had nothing better to do. Their relationship was already like this, not to mention that Ye Qingqing was involved in the matter. Even if Lin Man asked Pei Yan for help, he might not help.

Gan Tian's words kept echoing in Lin Man's ears. If Ye Qingqing's face really looked that much like Gan Yuxi, it would be good enough that Pei Yan did not side with Ye Qingqing to deal with them.

After returning home, Xiaojun prepared some hot tea. A group of people gathered around the round table and told Zhao Yao about the close call. "You don't know! That Ye Qingqing is very scheming. I wanted to save her at that time!"

"Hey? Manman, where are you going?"

Lin Man suddenly stood up, put on her slippers and went to the corridor, "Go out for a walk."

She sat in the corridor of the fire escape staircase with her cell phone in hand. After hesitating for a moment, she called Pei Yan.

The call was quickly answered, "Looking for me?"

In the corridor, the wind made Lin Man feel a little dazed. The dim light flickered, just like Lin Man's current mood. She grabbed her nightgown and said, "Um...thank you."

Seeing Pei Yan remained silent, Lin Man took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, "Thank you for Xiaojun's matter, thank you for your willingness to help, I thought you would not care..."

There was still silence on the phone.

Lin Man frowned in confusion, thinking that her thanks did not touch Pei Yan's heart, but when she looked again, Pei Yan had already hung up the phone.

The breath seemed to be stuck in Lin Man's throat, "Psycho!"

Pei Yan was indeed ill.

-

Pei Group, billiard hall.

Pei Yan stood aside, put the white ball on the ball, and held the long stick with his slender and powerful hands.

Han Ming stood aside and chuckled, "If President Ji knew that his contribution was attributed to you, he would probably be furious."

boom--

The white ball goes into the hole.

Pei Yan stood up and wiped his forehead with a handkerchief. "He is quite calm."

"Send more personnel to screen those who have had contact with the Ji family in the past."

Even Pei Yan had to admit that Ji Ze was a tough opponent.

"Yes, we have already sent more people."

Han Ming took the handkerchief from Pei Yan and said, "Originally, we should have had a result today, but something unexpected happened. President Ji didn't show up, and we were afraid of alerting the enemy if we acted rashly."

"No rush, since he wants to play, then let him play, so that he won't always have evil intentions."

"Keep an eye on Ye Qingqing, he will show up."

-

Haishi Hospital.

Ye Qingqing was woken up by the noise.

She turned her head and saw Ye Qingyu lying on the head of her bed crying, "Qingqing, I beg you, please wake up soon, otherwise how can I explain to my parents!"

Ye Qingqing moved her dry lips, "Sister, I'm not dead... I just fell asleep."

She was a little tired.

"Qingqing!" Ye Qingyu raised her head in surprise, but then her face immediately darkened. "Qingqing! Tell me honestly, what happened to you? Why did you fall down the stairs?"

Ye Qingyu originally wanted to ask if Ye Qingqing really used her body to frame others as Lin Man said, but when she saw her sister's pale face, her heart ached. How could she trust outsiders and not trust her sister? So she wanted to hear what Ye Qingqing had to say.

"Sister, don't worry about these things. I know what I am doing." Ye Qingqing had a bandage on her head. She forced herself to stand up and put a soft pillow behind her to make her feel better.

"But Qingqing..." Ye Qingyu hesitated. She was disappointed with Ye Qingqing's answer, but she didn't blame her sister for framing others. "Qingqing, I don't care about your affairs, but you have to promise me that you will never joke about your body at any time."

"Okay." Ye Qingqing was a little helpless, "Sister, I promise you."

After getting repeated assurances from her sister, Ye Qingyu left with satisfaction. Before leaving, she looked at her sister reluctantly. If she didn't have to go to work tomorrow, she really wouldn't be able to let her go like this.

Ye Qingqing watched Ye Qingyu leave with her own eyes, and then she looked at the door for a long time before finally taking out her cell phone from the drawer. She opened the address book and looked at the man's name with a serious look.

Her heart felt sour. He didn't even allow her to use his name as a note. She hesitated for a long time and finally didn't dial the number. But the next moment, he called her.

The bell rang in the silent ward, revealing a strange and eerie feeling, but Ye Qingqing raised the corners of her lips, as if she had encountered something happy.

"I thought you wouldn't look for me again." Ye Qingqing raised a bitter smile. Her excitement disappeared when she heard the cold voice coming from the other end of the phone.

Ji Ze said coldly, "What are you doing?"

His low voice was filled with warning and questioning, gentle yet with a hint of oppression.

Ye Qingqing was a little disappointed, "I'm injured, don't you know? The original plan had to be put on hold, and it was your sweetheart's friend who pushed me down."

There was a barely perceptible sneer coming from the other end of the line, but it was still caught by Ye Qingqing who was concentrating on answering the call.

"You don't believe me? I've already told you that our Ye family has a family motto that if you owe someone, you must pay it back. You've sponsored me to go to college since I was a child, and helped my parents pay for surgery. In my eyes, you've long been a benefactor. Do you still think I have any second thoughts?"
