Jing Yan did not show up for the entire day.
He personally conducted a field trip at the hotel and proposed a lot of design plans for the engagement party that would be held soon.
The hotel staff all took out their notebooks to take notes. Cold sweat broke out on their foreheads as they cursed in their hearts.
It seemed that President Jing really cared about his fiancee, Miss He. He did not even let go of every corner of the hotel. Every place had to be meticulously decorated. He even wanted to decorate the trash can with red flowers.
With the way he renovated the hotel, it would really look brand new. For the upcoming engagement party, they would have to close down from now on and meticulously do everything Jing Yan had instructed them to do.
Jing Yan was responsible for the loss of funds and the cost of renovation. It could be seen that if one was really rich, there was nothing that one could not do.
Jing Yan left the hotel in satisfaction after giving instructions to every floor and every corner. He had just gotten into the car when he received a call from He Chen. He rushed to the He family villa to see his future father-in-law.
In the study, after He Chen heard He Miao talk about the suspicious points of Ye Ning’s accident, his face instantly darkened to a terrifying degree. Other than the initial absent-mindedness, there was now only hatred in his heart.
With the hatred of killing his wife and the hatred of stealing his wife stacked together, He Chen would never let He Feng off.
However, He Miao had tried her best to think calmly on the way back. Now, she could calmly discuss the truth of the case back then. Looking at her pained father in the wheelchair, she hesitated for a long time before voicing the question in her heart.
“Dad, have you ever wondered why He Feng had such a great ability to hide the facts of the crime back then? Did the surveillance video really not capture anything, or was there someone behind it that prevented the police from telling the truth?”
He Miao had been thinking about this problem. Even if Ye Ning had left a large sum of money for He Feng back then, inheriting the inheritance still needed to go through procedures. Moreover, it was not easy to bribe the police to hide the murder case.
He Feng alone would not be able to make it in time, so the most likely possibility was that He Feng had an accomplice behind him, and this person’s ability was obviously not to be underestimated.
He Chen calmed down and carefully thought about the details. He nodded in agreement and said, “Miaomiao is right. I’m afraid it’s not that simple. There must be more details that we don’t know.”
The butler was also shocked. After listening to He Miao’s analysis just now, did that mean that there was another person hiding in the dark and with high authority who knew the truth of this incident?
“Then will Miss He be in danger if she continues to participate in the investigation?” This was what he was most worried about.
Ever since his master had lost Miss Ye, he had followed her with half his life. He would only be a little angry when he saw He Miao. He was like a living person, not a zombie who only knew how to handle work.
Therefore, at this time, the more he had to ensure He Miao’s safety. Otherwise, he was not sure if his master would be able to withstand a second blow if he lost He Miao like he did back then.
He Chen was obviously very worried about this matter. He pondered for a moment and said indifferently, “Your universityis about to have a holiday. When you have a holiday, I’ll get Jing Yan to bring you out to have fun. You can go anywhere you want. I’ll also find someone reliable to help you take care of the company.”
“I can’t leave.” He Miao looked at He Chen firmly, without a trace of hesitation or panic in his eyes. “I can assist in the investigation of Mom’s matter. I will protect myself. If I find anything unusual, I will contact you.”
He Chen looked at her deeply and advised her with a stern face for the last time, “Have you thought it through? Since you’ve decided to stay, you can’t act on your own. No matter what you find, you can’t act alone, or I’ll send you away immediately.”
“I can agree.” He Miao nodded in agreement. Now, as long as He Chen could let her stay, she would agree to anything.
As soon as he finished speaking, Jing Yan, who was standing outside the door, rushed in nervously. He looked at He Chen in panic. “Uncle He, where are you sending Miaomiao? We’re about to get engaged. Are you still dissatisfied with me? You can tell me, I will definitely change it.”
In the study, the butler and He Chen looked at each other and saw a hint of a smile in each other’s eyes.
The butler coughed dryly and turned around to look at Jing Yan with a smile. “President Jing, you’re wrong. My master is not dissatisfied with you at all.” “Then why did you send Miaomiao away?” He did not mean to eavesdrop. He had just arrived outside the study and was about to knock on the door when he heard He Chen say that he wanted to send He Miao away immediately. He was so flustered that he forgot his manners and barged in without waiting for the person inside to agree.
He Miao also walked to Jing Yan’s side with a helpless expression and said with a smile, “I’m not leaving. Listen to me slowly.”
She slowly told Jing Yan about what her father and she had learned about her mother today. When she said this, her heart could not help but ache.
No matter what, He Feng had to pay the price for his actions back then!
