Although the words shocked Xiang Jinnan, he believed there must be some misunderstanding.

With his understanding of Feng Jinglei, she could never be a murderer.

Staring at the person in front of him who slightly lowered her head, after hesitating for a few seconds, Xiang Jinnan spoke, "Jinglei, what exactly happened?"

Regarding Ma Qianqian, Feng Jinglei was not keen to discuss it with others, but the grievances and repression accumulated in her heart over the past two months made her want to find someone to talk to, to release the stifling feelings Qin Feimo had misunderstood.

Looking up at the gentle Xiang Jinnan in front of her, Feng Jinglei briefly summarized the course of events.

After listening, Xiang Jinnan was also very shocked.

"So, President Qin thinks if it weren’t for you and Mr. Qin going to find Ma Qianqian, she wouldn’t have died?"

Feng Jinglei nodded, "But afterward, there’s one thing that’s always puzzled me."

"What is it?" As she spoke, Xiang Jinnan listened intently.

Feng Jinglei fell into a few seconds of contemplation, still unable to understand the scene when Ma Qianqian had the car accident.

"Logically speaking, when Ma Qianqian walked out of the villa, whether she was walking out of the villa community or in another direction, there was no need for her to go to the middle of the road. But for some reason, the police investigation showed that Ma Qianqian was hit by a car because she was crossing the road."

At first, she thought the driver was drunk and hit Ma Qianqian walking by the roadside, but later she realized it was not the case; instead, Ma Qianqian inexplicably crossed the road.

After hearing her doubts, although Xiang Jinnan also found it incredible, he couldn’t understand the situation as he wasn’t present at the scene.

"Then, do you hate President Qin?"

Feng Jinglei kept her head down, lost in thought, until she heard this question and looked up at Xiang Jinnan in surprise.

Three seconds later, she lowered her head again and said softly, "If it were me, I might also have misunderstood in the same way."

Although it was painful being misunderstood by Qin Feimo for so long, thinking from another perspective, if she had lost her beloved, she would also probably blame it all on him.

Saying is one thing, but when truly facing it, there’s still a faint pain in the heart.

Xiang Jinnan stared at her, as if knowing what was in her heart, yet he couldn’t share her burden.

"Jinglei." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"Hmm?"

Looking at her, Xiang Jinnan hesitated before speaking.

"Are you...President Qin’s girlfriend?"

That day at the annual meeting, he saw with his own eyes President Qin taking her to such a grand event and announcing to everyone that she was his girlfriend.

But in his heart, he still had some doubts, knowing she’s been living with the Qin Family.

These days, he thought about giving up, but then wondered if giving up would lead to regret if Jinglei didn’t actually like President Qin.

Every time he thought about this, his heart hesitated in giving up on her.

Upon hearing this, Feng Jinglei was stunned for a few seconds.

Then she lowered her head, her expression somewhat gloomy, "No."

Hearing this, Xiang Jinnan’s eyes widened in shock, "No?"

Feng Jinglei nodded, "Hmm, that day he said that to others because he wanted to use me as a cover."

After hearing this, Xiang Jinnan was even more shocked.

He always thought President Qin truly cared about her, so he didn’t like other men coveting the woman he loved, and that’s why he declared his claim in front of everyone.
