Hidden Marriage: A Heaven-sent Billionaire Husband - Chapter 2176

2176 Twins
However, she was already handcuffed by the police. There were police officers standing on both sides of her, holding her down tightly. It was impossible for her to hurt Qiao Weiyang at all.

Qiao Weiyang stood rooted to the ground, not even blinking as she watched her go crazy.

Su Zhuoqian accompanied Qiao Weiyang to give her statement.

As the matter had nothing to do with Qiao Weiyang, she was sent out by the police after giving her statement.

Huang Meimei was still cooperating with the investigation.

She had a history of taking drugs. Now that she was being investigated, she could not hide her past. The consequences would probably be tragic.

When Qiao Weiyang went out, it was already three in the morning. There was a deep chill in the air.

Her fingers turned cold.

She clasped her hands together, and suddenly, her shoulders felt warm. Su Zhuoqian’s coat was already on her.

She reached out and tidied it up. Su Zhuoqian grabbed her cold hand and held it in the middle of his warm palm.

The mix of heat and cold produced sparks on the tips of her fingers.

Qiao Weiyang’s heart skipped a beat, like ripples on a calm lake.

“Sigh, I probably shouldn’t be here. I should be somewhere else.” Lu Mingjue’s voice sounded not far away.

Qiao Weiyang looked up and saw Lu Mingjue standing in front of a car, leaning against it. He looked a little devilish.

Su Zhuoqian held Qiao Weiyang’s hand and walked toward the car. “Then why didn’t you stay in the car?”

“Boss, be reasonable. I’ve been busy until now. Is this the treatment I should be receiving?” Lu Mingjue got into the car and counted on his fingers. “I was the one who arranged for the reporters and paparazzi to barge in aggressively. The words of that aggressive reporter were very impactful, but that allowed Sister-in-law’s defense to be heard. As for the explanation and evidence, I was the one who made the arrangements, no? The trending searches have completely changed now, and the clarification is all over Weibo. I’m the one who made this all happen, no?”

“Thank you.” Qiao Weiyang had long seen through the situation. Although the paparazzi and reporters tonight were fierce, the trends had indeed changed.

The reporters and paparazzi were probably hired by Huang Meimei, but they were later instigated by Lu Mingjue. Otherwise, even if she brought out evidence to shut them up, they would probably still take it out of context and wrongly accuse her.

Lu Mingjue smiled. “Sister-in-law, you’re the best! Let’s go, I’ll send you back!”

“You’ve worked hard tonight.” Qiao Weiyang was indeed very grateful. If it weren’t for his professional intervention, it would have been difficult to control the situation.

“It’s my duty.” As Lu Mingjue drove, he burst with joy after being thanked by Qiao Weiyang.

This was the difference between working with Boss and working with Sister-in-law.

He asked, “By the way, Sister-in-law, since you had direct evidence tonight to prove that you didn’t take drugs back then, why did you ask Tian Guang to testify for you? When I saw the video of what happened at the event location that was sent to me by the reporters, my heart jumped to my throat. Didn’t Tian Guang’s response add insult to injury?”

“Yes, there was really no reason to call him tonight. I just wanted to see his attitude,” Qiao Weiyang said.

“You mean, you wanted to see what his character was like? You wanted to know if he’d tell the truth?”

“Yeah, you can say that.” Qiao Weiyang nodded.

Lu Mingjue understood. “Fortunately, you didn’t need his testimony. I have one last question. How did you know that there was something in the drink Huang Meimei gave you? Was it just a coincidence?”

“If I tell you that I smelled the drugs, would you believe me?” Qiao Weiyang said with a smile.

She was proficient in all kinds of herbs although she had never come into contact with something like drugs. When something like juice was drugged, others would be bewitched by the rich fragrance of the juice and would not be able to detect anything else.

However, Qiao Weiyang knew at that time that there was something inside.
Although she wasn’t sure what was inside at that time, since she knew that there was something else in it, Qiao Weiyang naturally wouldn’t drink it.

Lu Mingjue smiled. “I believe you! Everyone in your family is a genius! No, it’s our family! By the way, why didn’t the detection dogs smell the drink in the beginning?”

“When I put the drink there, I used something to keep the smell isolated because I really wanted to know what Huang Meimei had given me. I was afraid that it would be difficult to investigate after whatever was put inside evaporated. But when I saw the police coming over with the detection dogs, I already guessed what was inside. Therefore, I took the opportunity to take out the drink before the police left and gave the dogs a chance.”

Lu Mingjue couldn’t help but clap his hands. He knew that there would be something exciting tonight, but he didn’t expect it to be this exciting!

“Sister-in-law, I feel that you’ll take me to greater heights by being your manager.”

“Focus on driving!” Su Zhuoqian knocked him on his head.

Lu Mingjue quickly put his hands back on the steering wheel. “I was just curious. Boss, aren’t you curious? So many things happened tonight. Don’t tell me you knew about all of it from the beginning?”

Qiao Weiyang also turned to look at Su Zhuoqian.

The lights outside shone on him through the car window, but a shadow was cast on the other half of his face.

Many things had happened tonight. Coupled with the fact that there were eyes all around, she did not get to mention much to him.

However, every move he made matched her plan perfectly.

Whether it was being investigated by the police at the event location, getting Lu Mingjue to arrange for reporters to deliberately ask her questions, or her getting that drink before the police left, he had played along with her perfectly.

They didn’t even need a word of communication or a secretive look.

He seemed to know what she was going to do, so he cooperated seamlessly.

Her puzzled and bright eyes shone in Su Zhuoqian’s eyes.

He tilted his head and closed the distance between them.

As if knowing what she wanted to ask, he said in a low and calm voice, “I didn’t know anything. I just knew what I had to do, and we happened to be a good match.”

Qiao Weiyang’s heart beat faster listening to his hoarse voice.

The atmosphere in the narrow car quickly rose.

Lu Mingjue, who did not receive a response, glanced into the rearview mirror.

At this glance, he was overwhelmed by the couple’s PDA.

He knocked on the steering wheel. “Hey, hey, hey. Guys, have mercy on this single man here.”

Qiao Weiyang quickly distanced herself from Su Zhuoqian.
