Chapter 97 Still Mindful

  So a group of people stood in the brightly lit office on this dark and windy night, their heads bowed, listening to a man's icy interrogation.

  "Have you found out?"

  "It should be soon..."

  Gong Yunxiu carefully responded in unison.

  "What do you mean by 'should be soon'? I want a definite answer!"

  That's... "Not yet!"

  "What about Fred?"

  "Collecting evidence..."

  "Don't tell me it's still... after all these days, it's still..."

  Cang Mu stood with his back to them, unable to see the expression on his face, only hearing his cold voice, like a winter day.

  Feng Ying slightly furrowed her brow, seemingly considering how to respond more appropriately. Finally, with a stiff tone, she forced out two words: "Not yet..."

  With a "bang", something flew over, and everyone quickly dodged out of the way, without a single injury.

  "What's going on?! Can't even handle such a small matter?! Haven't performed well for too long, have you?"

  Cang Mu turned around, his face gloomy, his dark eyes scanning the people standing in the room.

  "No way, boss! Blue Lion and I are working hard..."

  Chi Yu sat on the sofa, leisurely lifting his legs and playing with his phone while speaking.

  On one side, Gong Yunxiu glared at him, but he pretended not to see it.

  "Mind your own business!"

  Someone refuted and went back.

  He rubbed his nose and didn't say anything else.

  Then, once again, there was complete silence in the room.

  "What's the cause of the fire!" Cang Mu spoke again.

  "Preliminary estimates suggest that it was probably some object carrying a source of fire that invaded, and also brought flammable and explosive materials. The villa's perimeter is equipped with electronic surveillance and alarm systems, but no one has dared to enter so openly..." Meiying said, standing there.

  "What is it that you see... who has done this?"

  "Besides Yixiang Tian, who else could it be?" Gong Yunxiu coldly snorted.

  "I think it's...not necessarily him..." Fujino also spoke up.

  "Why?"

  Touya gazed out at the vast expanse of the universe, hesitating.

  "Speak!"

  "Because of his sister!" He said simply in four words, and again made everyone inside hold their breath.

  Mei Ying raised her eyes to look at him, from this angle, she could only see his side face, cold and handsome lines, noble and beautiful side profile, as if he was concentrating on thinking about something.

  But she knew that he was just suppressing it, and the tightly clenched fist on the desktop could see how much turmoil was in his heart.

  She lowered her eyes, and the perfect curve of her lips drew a faint smile, so faint it was almost imperceptible. He still cared, he still did.

  Everyone knows that the brooch Ouyang Xueluo treasures is a gift from Yi Xiangtian, the leader of the Tiandao gang. Everyone also knows that when Yi Xiangtian returns, he will be looking for Ouyang Xueluo.

  How could he let something so dangerous hurt someone he loved and cherished so much?

  Perhaps he knew, so he sent someone to pick up Ouyang Xueluo, or perhaps it was just a coincidence?

  When the snow fell on the school, Qianqian and Xiaoyang had already been waiting for her there. As soon as they saw her, they hurriedly surrounded her from left to right.

  "It's snowing, you scared me to death, are you okay? I couldn't even get through to your phone... Yesterday when I was online, I saw that a villa exploded in your area... Is it the one where you live?"

  Qingqing asked, and Xiaoyang chimed in on the side: "Does this still need to be asked? Isn't it written that the villa of Emperor Group's CEO Ferreton exploded?"

  "Oh..."

  The snow fell softly in response to her voice, and compared to Qianqian and the others' excited and tense appearance, she seemed like an outsider.

  "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

  Qianqian and Xiaoyang looked her up and down.

  She just stood there with a faint smile and shook her head: "No, don't you see me standing here properly?"

  Jiang Jiang always felt that something was off about where the snow fell.

  The third class, Xiaoyang was learning English, they were studying management. Xuanxuan looked at Xueluo who was listening carefully beside her again.

  In that case, should it be considered serious?

  She sat up straight, her eyes fixed on the professor at the front podium, not even blinking. Even when the professor asked everyone to look at their books, she still stared blankly in that direction.

  Several times, he touched her, but she didn't notice.

  Alas, this is indeed serious... two ears not hearing outside matters.

  At noon, Aaron invited them to have lunch together. As they walked out of the school gate, Xuanxuan had not reacted yet and felt a black shadow pouncing on Xueluo beside her. She let out a sharp cry, but when she looked again, it turned out to be Xuebai.

  Snowflakes fell and squatted down beside her, gazing unbelievably at the snow-white dog, who was merely licking her face with her tongue.

  "Snow white..."

  Perhaps due to excitement, her pale cheeks finally flushed with a hint of red, holding Snow White in her arms, letting it rub against her.

  Jingjing saw the person walking over and suddenly bumped into Xueluo. Xueluo looked up and only then did she see Tengteng.

  "Fuji no?"

  She stood up and looked at Tono in front of her, then involuntarily glanced behind him, but there was no one, a hint of disappointment flashing across her face.

  "Sister-in-law... this is your phone..."

  Tōno stretched out his hand and handed her the mobile phone he was holding.

  Xue fell silent for a moment, she had already forgotten where her phone was, and reached out to take it: "Thank you..."

  "Oh, and..." Fujiwara said, pulling out an envelope from his pocket, "This is... something the boss wanted me to give you..."

  She was taken aback, staring at the envelope with some confusion, when Xuanxuan nudged her: "Xueluo..."

  She seemed to have reacted and took it over, opened the envelope, but it was a credit card.

  She looked up at Fujino, who lowered his head.

  "Boss said... this is... alimony!"

  "Alimony?!!"

  Xue Luo hadn't even spoken yet when Xuan Xuan beside him had already called out, and even the approaching Xiao Yang and Aaron couldn't help but stop in their tracks.

  The snow fell silently, and she put the card back in the envelope and handed it to Tono, but was caught by Xuanxuan.

  "Wait, wait, wait... Snow is falling, what's going on? What alimony? What happened?"

  Anxious all over her face.

  Xue didn't answer Qianqian, but instead pulled over Teng Ye's hand and put the envelope in his palm: "You return it to him, no need for this..." she said softly.

  "Wait, what's going on? Snow? You... got divorced? Was it him who wanted to divorce you? He's been thinking about this for a long time, right? He wants to be with that other person, doesn't he?"

  Xuān Xuān hadn't finished speaking when Xue Luo snatched the envelope from her hand and handed it to Teng Ye: "Tell him, no need..."

  After finishing speaking, she pulled Xuanxuan, who was still chattering away on one side, and walked forward.

  "It's snowing, why don't you take advantage of it? Since he wants to leave, why don't you ask for alimony? You deserve it..."

  "Shut up!"

  Xue Luo suddenly let out a loud cry, also stunning Xuan Xuan on the side.

  She gazed at her eyes reddening rapidly as snow fell, and for a moment she was speechless.

  Snowfall stretched out her hand and tightly wrapped her arms around her, she could feel her thin body trembling, for a moment, she thought Snowfall had cried.

  But she didn't understand why Snow was crying. Was it because of grievance? Or something else?

  It's actually better to be divorced, it was a loveless marriage anyway.

  Tiangge is back now, Xueluo likes Tiangge, and that Feilton also has someone he likes, so let's break up.

  She paid the alimony for Xue Luo, but only felt a little resentful. What did Xue Luo do wrong? That person wanted to divorce her? Alimony was a matter of course, even if Tian Ge didn't lack money.

  But Snow should be happy, should be joyful, why... would feel sad?

  "Fall... fall..."

  Qian Qian stretched out her hand to hug her, calling out softly. She was usually good with words, but at this moment, she didn't know how to comfort her. All she could do was whisper her name.
