Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1838: Chapter 1837: His Plan

After a long while, Xu Wanqi finally looked up at Lu Zhiyan and asked stiffly, “If I confess everything I know, does that mean I can be innocent?”

Lu Zhiyan squinted, “As long as you confess honestly, I’ll plead with the judge for you at that time.”

Xu Wanqi pressed her lips tightly and looked down at her own abdomen, saying faintly, “I don’t want my child to be pointed at by others as soon as they’re born, and I don’t want to miss the chance to watch her grow up.”

“Go ahead, what do you know?”

Before knowing what Xu Wanqi had done, Lu Zhiyan naturally couldn’t promise her innocence.

However, if Xu Wanqi could confess and assist them in capturing Meng Ke, and later testify in court, that would definitely be the best outcome for her.

“What do you want to know?”

Lu Zhiyan sneered coldly, his eyes sharp as he looked at Xu Wanqi, “What did you do when you went to M Country with Meng Ke last time?”

Xu Wanqi hesitated for a moment, “Qing Yang, is he really awake?”

Lu Zhiyan ignored her question.

Xu Wanqi bit her lip and told Lu Zhiyan everything she did with Meng Ke in M Country last time.

Lu Zhiyan listened to Xu Wanqi’s confession, which wasn’t far from what Qing Yang had told him.

However, as one of the participants, Xu Wanqi’s account was clearer and more detailed, and she naturally knew more about the people they contacted than Qing Yang did.

“So because Qing Yang found out about your affairs, Meng Ke wanted to kill to silence him?”

When asking this question, Lu Zhiyan’s tone was somewhat cold.

Meng Ke really was capable of anything, even unafraid of killing.

“This matter has nothing to do with me. It was those people’s idea. If the Senior didn’t comply, we would have been in trouble.”

Even though Xu Wanqi betrayed Meng Ke, she couldn’t help but clear him of some matters.

Lu Zhiyan’s expression turned cold, and he asked in a deep voice, “Was the trouble Bai had in D Country caused by Meng Ke?”

“It was him.”

Xu Wanqi didn’t dare to deny it; Lu Zhiyan had already guessed what Meng Ke had done before going to the hospital.

“What’s Meng Ke’s plan to go abroad this time?”

“I don’t know the Senior’s plan either.”

Her eyes flickered, still unwilling to let the police catch Meng Ke.

“You won’t know when he takes you with him to leave?”

Lu Zhiyan obviously didn’t believe Xu Wanqi’s words; he wasn’t someone so easily deceived.

Being stared at by his sharp eyes, a trace of panic flashed across Xu Wanqi’s face, “The Senior said to go to Bali Island first and then transfer to D Country. I only found out that morning he wanted to find Bai Xiaoxiao and take her away.”

Lu Zhiyan’s lips curled into a cold arc, just as he and Mo Xiuchen had guessed.

“When is he going then?”

“I really don’t know this; the Senior didn’t say.” Hesitating for a moment, Xu Wanqi added, “Even if he said then, he might change plans at the last minute.”

Lu Zhiyan nodded, agreeing with this point.

“So, Meng Ke doesn’t trust you that much either.”

“Perhaps from the moment I stayed, he already had another plan.”

Xu Wanqi said this not because she truly believed Meng Ke didn’t trust her, but simply hoped the police couldn’t catch him.

Anyway, she had confessed everything she needed to, whether or not they could catch Meng Ke was not her business anymore.

Lu Zhiyan watched her intentions without intending to expose her but instead got up and left the interrogation room, taking out his phone to make a call.

Mo Xiuchen had just finished processing his work and got up to pour water for Wen Ran when the phone on the desk rang.

He glanced back, placed the cup on Wen Ran’s desk, and said with a smile, “Ranran, have some water.”

Wen Ran gently nodded, “Your phone is ringing, go answer it!”

As she spoke, she took the cup from his hand.

Mo Xiuchen watched her bring the cup to her lips before returning to his desk to answer the call.

“Hello!”

As soon as he greeted, Lu Zhiyan’s voice came through the phone, “Xu Wanqi has confessed, the trouble at Bai Xiaoxiao’s company was Meng Ke’s doing. He wanted to lure Bai Xiaoxiao to D Country and then take her away.”

Listening to his words, a hint of coldness flashed in Mo Xiuchen’s eyes. Did Meng Ke like Bai Xiaoxiao that much?

Or was it simply out of unwillingness because he couldn’t have her?

However, even while being investigated by the police and at risk of exposure at any moment, he was still scheming about Bai Xiaoxiao while on the run—that was truly deep scheming.

“I understand. I’ll call Ah Feng when I get home and ask him to be cautious. When will your people reach D Country?”

Since they knew Meng Ke was going to D Country, the police would naturally go there to wait for him.

It’s just a matter of who gets there first.

Not far away, Wen Ran, who was drinking water at her desk, couldn’t help but lower her cup, looking at Mo Xiuchen with concern.

Facing her concerned gaze, Mo Xiuchen gave a reassuring smile.

Whatever else Lu Zhiyan said to him, a moment later, Mo Xiuchen hung up the phone.

Coming out from behind the desk with the phone in hand, he dialed another number while heading toward the sofa.

Wen Ran got up and came over to sit beside Mo Xiuchen on the sofa.

Mo Xiuchen put the call on speaker, holding Wen Ran’s hand with one hand and the phone with the other, a faint aloofness between his handsome brows.

Wen Ran didn’t ask him anything, just watched him silently.

After a few rings, Luo Haofeng’s voice came through, still tinged with drowsiness.

At this time, it was still early morning over there, not even dawn.

“Hey, Xiuchen.”

“Qing Yang is awake.”

Mo Xiuchen’s simple words instantly cleared Luo Haofeng of any drowsiness on the other end, the voice coming back devoid of sleepiness.

“Xiuchen, you said Qing Yang is awake?”

Listening to Luo Haofeng’s surprised and delighted voice, a faint smile formed on Mo Xiuchen’s lips, “Yes, Qing Yang is awake, and Xu Wanqi has also confessed.”

Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran didn’t call Luo Haofeng immediately after returning from the hospital.

They were waiting to see if Xu Wanqi would confess to Lu Zhiyan.

Now that Xu Wanqi had confessed, confirming their previous concerns and suspicions, “Meng Ke will go to D Country. The trouble with Xiaoxiao’s company was orchestrated by him. His aim is to take Xiaoxiao to D Country.”

“That despicable bastard Meng Ke.”

What started as speculations was now confirmed to be Meng Ke’s doing? Luo Haofeng couldn’t help but feel his anger rise.

“Ah Feng, being angry now won’t help. The most important thing is to handle the matters there well and ensure Xiaoxiao’s safety.”

Given Meng Ke’s ability to extend his influence into D Country, it showed he had already made arrangements.

Mo Xiuchen was worried, even with Luo Haofeng by Bai Xiaoxiao’s side, he couldn’t guarantee Bai Xiaoxiao’s absolute safety. Thinking of this, his handsome brow furrowed slightly.
