Chapter 1520 - 1520 Terrible Speculation

1520 Terrible Speculation

Qi Zhi’an thought that Xia Xibei might have said the wrong person.

“Ling Juan? Did you say Ling Juan?”

He couldn’t resist repeating it.

“Yes,” Xia Xibei nodded, “It’s her.”

“You’re not mistaken, are you? She is your biological mother!” Qi Zhi’an couldn’t help but shout.

Ling Juan was Xia Xibei’s birth mother! How could she have done such a thing to her?!

“I originally thought it was strange too, but I got the driver to talk, and it was indeed her,” Xia Xibei sighed and looked very distressed.

Qi Zhi’an’s expression suddenly became serious.

“What did he say?”

“He said… A middle-aged woman asked him to do it.”

“Middle-aged woman?”

“Right,” Xia Xibei nodded, “And before that, I think I saw her.”

“When did you see her?” Qi Zhi’an became even more curious.

“It was when I was in M before.”

Xia Xibei explained. “I got targeted in M, so I went to investigate, and then I found out about a woman.”

Without waiting for Qi Zhi’an to ask, Xia Xibei continued.

“I would not have known her ident.i.ty, but I heard someone call her Ms. Ling.”

Ms. Ling?

Qi Zhi’an’s eyes became grim.

“This time, I didn’t want to suspect her, but the driver also gave the appearance of the person who instructed him. It was indeed her!”

Qi Zhi’an asked in a deep voice, “How did you ask? Didn’t the police say it was just a simple drunk driving?”

Qi Zhi’an was not defending Ling Juan, but he did not want Xia Xibei to suspect her mother.

If Xia Xibei’s birth mother really did this kind of thing to her, how sad she would be!

“I can hypnotize people,” Xia Xibei replied confidently. “That’s how I learned of the real situation from the driver’s mouth. However, I didn’t tell the police about it, so as not to alert the attacker.”

This statement made Qi Zhi’an silent.

“And I also saw her near the police station!”

Xia Xibei dropped another bombsh.e.l.l.

“You saw her?!”

“Yes. I saw her, but she ran away as soon as she saw me.”

Xia Xibei sighed as if she were sad and then babbled without qualms. “I hypnotized the driver afterward and learned more from him.”

“What is it?”

“He said that when Ms. Ling had asked him to do this, she had whispered that she must not let me take the exam successfully. That way, I wouldn’t get good grades on the exam, much less be able to overshadow the kid.”

The kid?

Qi Zhi’an’s heart jumped.

Xia Xibei’s voice trailed off a bit, “I guessed later who this child she was talking about really was. Then, I had an idea.”

Her voice made Qi Zhi’an’s gooseb.u.mps rise, but he still asked in a shaky voice, “Who is it?”

“I dare not say…”

Xia Xibei smiled helplessly, “Forget it. Maybe I’m thinking too much. Let’s just skip this topic!”

Qi Zhi’an stiffened, and his face in the video was slightly stiff.

A while later, he spoke, “You’re not lying to me?”

Xia Xibei smiled bitterly at him. “What would I lie to you for?”

Looking at Xia Xibei’s pretty young face, Qi Zhi’an felt a little familiar.

Some terrible guesses flashed through his heart, and he wiped his face.

“I’ll go check it out and give you an explanation.”

“OK.”

After hanging up the phone, Qi Zhi’an was fl.u.s.tered.

The information Xia Xibei had revealed, however, had alarmed him.
