Ma Haodong had been treating Xiao Yuxin like his own sister.
But after Xiao Yuqian and Xiao Yuxin’s fight at the dinner party for Root of Evil, Ma Haodong stopped talking to her.
Ning Xin came to look for Ma Haodong once. The reason was that she tried to harm Jing Xi at the ROSUE’s product launch event and was punished by Huo Yunshen.
Without any choices left, Ning Xin sought out Ma Haodong’s help. But there was nothing he could do.
To be more precise, he wouldn’t help her. Ning Xin was someone that Xiao Yuqian did not like; Ma Haodong would never help her even if the sky fell.
…
Ever since Ma Haodong’s contract with Huayin Entertainment ended, he kept bugging Xiao Yuqian to let her join Jingyue Entertainment.
Ma Haodong was at Xiao Yuqian’s office again. After sweet-talking to her for half a day, he was about to kiss her when Wan Dou knocked on the door.
Wan Dou informed them that Jing Xi wanted to meet with Xiao Yuqian. Xiao Yuqian told Wan Dou to let Jing Xi in as she tried to kick Ma Haodong out.
Jing Xi then came in with a man, all tied up.
“Oh, Haodong, you’re here too,” Jing Xi raised her eyebrow. “Stay, you need to hear this too.”
Ma Haodong looked at the person on the floor and then asked Jing Xi. “What’s wrong? What did this guy do? Did he try to nab you or something?”
Jing Xi looked at Ma Haodong and Xiao Yuqian before she asked, “Do you guys still remember the MAX band?”
“Of course,” Ma Haodong and Xiao Yuqian replied in unison for the first time in six years.
They could remember the band not because it was famous six years ago, but because the leader was Xiao Yuche.
The MAX band managed to garner a considerable amount of fans in Peijing as they toured around various bars and events six years ago.
But after Xiao Yuche’s death, the band dissolved.
“This man is Chu Tian,” Jing Xi explained. “He used to be the bassist for MAX. He knows about the real reason for Yuche’s death. Why don’t you guys listen to what he has to say?”
Both Ma Haodong and Xiao Yuqian looked at Chu Tian in shock. They did not expect Jing Xi to bring in someone who knew the truth.
It also meant that Ma Haodong was really innocent.
Jing Xi kicked Chu Tian down and ripped the tape off his mouth.
She then put her leg on his throat and warned him, “You better tell the truth. If I hear any deceit, I’ll castrate you!”
“Wait! I’ll speak!”
Chu Tian was sweating hard as a chill was sent down his spine. He was only seconds away from being castrated.
“It’s Xiao Yuxin.” Chu Tian finally spoke the truth. “After Ma Haodong and A Zhe fought, Xiao Yuxin beat him to death with a metal bar… She then pinned it on Ma Haodong. That’s all I know! I swear!”
The whole story was finally out.
Ning Xin was the real culprit. Xiao Yuqian had been wrong about Ma Haodong. She’d hated him for six years because of that.
Ma Haodong turned to Xiao Yuqian and smiled wryly. “Do you believe me now?”
