After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 597: Chapter 601 A Slap in the Face [2]

Leng Zimo lifted his face and glanced at the breakfast in her hands across the table, his eyes slowly rising to settle on her face.

At this point, how could she still act as if nothing happened?

Suppressing his anger, he didn’t reach for the breakfast, just stared at her face and asked, ”You said you had some clues, what are you referring to?”

”If you don’t want to eat it, eat it later.” Xu Pei placed the breakfast on the table, ”This matter, I just thought of it now, the person who had the most contact with Xiao Qian’s album is Zhuo Yannan, or, we could start with him, check each person one by one, and we will surely find the person who betrayed Luo Xiaoqian, and... I heard Ya Nan recently bought a new car.”

”Are you saying that Zhuo Yannan betrayed Xiao Qian?” Leng Zimo asked back.

Xu Pei said, ”I’m just speculating, after all, Ya Nan is the most likely person to have access to all the information.”

”You’ve been on my computer, haven’t you?” Leng Zimo suddenly changed the subject.

Xu Pei panicked inside, but put on a calm face, ”Computer, what computer, why would I have touched your computer?!”

Leng Zimo sat up straight, his gaze piercing as he looked at her, ”That day, my laptop was left in the recording studio, and you took it home, have you forgotten?”

”Oh! I remember now, yes, I took it, I left it in the car that night, and wasn’t it returned to you the next day...”

”Enough!” Leng Zimo shot up from his seat, ”Xu Pei, even now, are you still lying to me?!”

”I...” Xu Pei, seeing his expression, quickly lowered her gaze, not daring to meet his eyes, ”I don’t understand what you mean!”

Slap!

An object flew from Leng Zimo’s hand, landed on the desk, bounced once, and then rolled onto the floor.

It was a USB drive, an ordinary black one, with nothing unusual about it.

When Xu Pei saw the USB drive, there was a flash of panic in her eyes.

”Explain this to me,” Leng Zimo’s voice surged with anger, ”If you haven’t touched my computer, why would the video from my computer appear on this USB drive and end up in Su Jin’s hands?!”

Su Jin, that idiot, had actually betrayed her?!

Xu Pei thought of all the possibilities, but she had not considered this one.

She couldn’t understand, Su Jin clearly hated Luo Xiaoqian so much, so why would she end up siding with Luo Xiaoqian in the end?

As the saying goes, better to face a formidable opponent than a foolish ally.

At this moment, Xu Pei deeply understood the meaning of this phrase.

As she saw Leng Zimo toss out the USB drive, she was still wondering where she had gone wrong, not expecting that she had been betrayed by her own ally.

Bending over to pick up the USB drive, she stealthily glanced at Leng Zimo’s expression.

His expression was very calm, and she knew him well; Zimo like this was even more terrifying than when he was in a rage.

Xu Pei thought quickly, she knew she couldn’t admit it, if she took the blame for this, it would really be the end of her and Leng Zimo.

”That’s right, I saw that video, but it wasn’t me who did it, it was Luo Xiaoqian. She knew I liked you, so she did something like this, deliberately framing me.” She sneered in an attempt to cover her agitation, ”This Luo Xiaoqian is really shrewd, no wonder she told me last night that she wouldn’t lose, turns out she had been prepared. I guess, she must have elaborated on our conversation from yesterday to you, definitely said plenty of ’nice’ things about me, right?”
