1456 So It Was Qi Lanyin
Outside.
Tang Wanru finally found Jiang Xianrou and Jiang Yao.
She hurried over. “Xianrou, what happened? It’s almost 12. Why haven’t you changed?”
She saw a cleaner cleaning the floor not far away. Tang Wanru frowned and turned to look at Jiang Yao. She asked in a low voice, “Yao’er, what’s going on? What are they cleaning?”
“Someone ruined the Qi family’s gift.” Jiang Yao felt upset when he thought of the results of the police investigation. He looked up and said to Tang Wanru, who still didn’t know anything, “We just found an eyewitness.”
Tang Wanru frowned. “Since you found out who did it, why didn’t you arrest them?”
Jiang Xianrou’s face was ashen. She pinched her palms and did not want to speak.
Jiang Yao said on her behalf, “Someone saw Qi Lanyin sneak into the room where the gifts were placed. Not long after she entered, that person heard the sound of something being smashed.”
“You said Qi Lanyin broke Xianrou’s…” Tang Wanru looked shocked.
Jiang Yao’s heart was heavy as he nodded. “That person didn’t want to cause trouble. He heard the commotion but didn’t go in to take a look. He wouldn’t have said anything if the police hadn’t come to investigate.”
Before the police found any witnesses, they refused to let go of Qiao Nian, saying that she was the one who had damaged the item.
Now the facts were before him.
This matter had nothing to do with Qiao Nian at all!
Jiang Yao was extremely frustrated when he thought of what had happened half an hour ago. He regretted being too impulsive.
Before he could figure things out, he heard his aunt’s words and suspected Qiao Nian. In the end, he realized that his previous actions were no different from a farce.
“Mom, Qi Lanyin is a member of the Qi family. How should we deal with this matter?” Jiang Yao definitely wanted Qi Yan to know what Qi Lanyin had done.
Tang Wanru frowned and seemed to have other considerations. She said, “Don’t worry about this for now. Tell your father not to tell anyone for the time being. I’ll take care of it.”
“Aren’t we being too easy on her by doing this!” Jiang Yao didn’t agree with this way of handling things.
Previously, Jiang Xianrou had even suggested calling the police when she thought Qiao Nian was the culprit.
Now that they knew that the culprit was Qi Lanyin, it was too much to cover up the matter.
“Listen to me. I’ll handle it.” Tang Wanru’s attitude was firm. She didn’t want to discuss it with Jiang Yao.
After she finished speaking, she looked at Jiang Xianrou. Seeing her pale face and embarrassed expression, her eyes were filled with heartache.
She walked over and patted her arm. “Xianrou, don’t be sad. Qi Lanyin is only doing this in private because she’s jealous of you entering the Pharmacy Association. It’s useless no matter how much trouble she makes. You’re the one who entered the Pharmacy Association, not her! Alright, quickly go and change your clothes. President Luo from the Pharmacy Association will be here soon. President Luo is usually by Dean Zhong’s side. He’s Elder Zhong’s personal disciple and has a special status in the Pharmacy Association. His status is not lower than the Qi family… No matter what, let’s finish your filiation banquet first.”
“Yes.” Jiang Xianrou clenched her fists tightly and barely responded.
Tang Wanru’s heart ached even more. She helped her adjust her collar before saying softly, “Don’t worry. As long as you perform well, neither Qi Lanyin nor Qiao Nian will be able to surpass you in the future!”
Jiang Xianrou bit her lip. She was still in a bad mood and didn’t even respond this time.
