Chapter 765: I Can Only Warm Your Bed For You

“You don’t seem to like your daughter very much.” Mu Qiqi followed Mama Bai’s emotions and asked, “Can you tell me why?”

“I raised her till she’s an adult, but she only wants to return to her father’s side. Such an unfilial daughter, what do you think I should do?” Mama Bai said hatefully, “I’ve been paralyzed for days, so I wanted her to come over and take a look. She actually said that she didn’t have time, so I told her to die!”

“Then did you know that she had already bought a bus ticket?” Mu Qiqi continued to ask Mama Bai.

“How would I know that much about her? If she dies, so be it. Just think of it as me having raised an ungrateful wretch.”

From Mama Bai’s words, Mu Qiqi couldn’t tell if this woman had any feelings for her daughter.

Mu Qiqi and Old Cheng looked at each other and didn’t say anything else.

Meanwhile, Mama Bai began to annoy them impatiently. “Are you done with your questions? If you’re done, hurry up and leave. Don’t disturb my rest. My daughter has just died. Don’t you have any compassion?”

Old Cheng and Mu Qiqi looked at each other once again and decided to leave the ward first.

Old Cheng thought that he might be able to get some useful clues from this woman, but in the end?

It was another wasted trip.

“Qiqi, what do you think?”

“I think this woman is very problematic, and she’s full of lies,” Mu Qiqi said, leaning against the wall outside the ward.

“Huh?”

“I don’t know if you noticed the necklace on her neck.”

“I think it’s just an ordinary piece of silver jewelry. There’s nothing special about it.”

Mu Qiqi shook her head and smiled at him. “That’s not silver jewelry. That’s a Perkin necklace. Moreover, it’s a product from Huang Yao, from the minimalist series. I’ve planned an event for Huang Yao before. I’ve seen it before.”

“Are you sure? What if it’s a fake?” Old Cheng held his chin in confusion. “How would she know about Huang Yao’s jewelry?”

“In short, I think this woman still needs to be investigated. So, Senior Brother Cheng, you might not be able to go back today.”

Mu Qiqi said to Old Cheng.

Xu Che also heard what she said. Xu Che immediately sent a message to Sheng Xiao.

“Then, find a hotel nearby to stay. We’ll go visit Mama Bai’s neighbor in the evening.”

A moment later, Mu Qiqi called Tang Yan to update him on the progress of the investigation and mentioned the necklace.

Tang Yan immediately reacted and remembered that there was a receipt in Bai Xinyi’s drawer that was worth 360,000 yuan.

“I’ll get Xiao Long to get the surveillance footage from Huang Yao immediately.”

Why did Bai Xinyi buy such an expensive necklace? How did the necklace end up with Mama Bai?

Bai Xinyi had bought it a few days before the alleged suicide.

But Mama Bai said that she hadn’t seen Bai Xinyi in a long time. How did the necklace end up in her hands?

With a lot of questions, Mu Qiqi and Old Cheng went to where Mama Bai lived and started to visit the neighbors.

However, because Mama Bai was usually harsh and mean to the neighbors, no one was willing to interact with her.

Only the old grandfather living downstairs from Mama Bai still had some understanding of her. “This woman used to go out on Saturdays when she wasn’t sick, and she would come back on Sundays. I didn’t know what she was doing. I met her a few times, and every time she came back, she reeked of alcohol.”

“She was mean and had no relatives or friends. She only had a daughter, and she used to beat and scold her a lot.

“By the way, when I came back, once, I saw a luxury car giving her and her daughter a ride.”

“Sir, how long ago was that?” Mu Qiqi asked while taking notes.

“Not long ago, more than half a month ago,” the old man recalled. “It was a black car. From afar, it looked very beautiful.”

From this, it was obvious that Mama Bai was full of lies.

No, it should be said that she did not say much and deliberately avoided saying anything.

“Alright, it’s getting late. Let’s find a place to rest for the night and see what Captain Tang will do.” Senior Brother Cheng looked at his watch and turned around to look around. “Why don’t we stay nearby?”

“I’ve already arranged accommodations for you all just now,” Xu Che, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly said.

The two of them were stunned for a moment and nodded. “That’s good too.”

Then, the three of them casually went to eat some J City specialties. Mu Qiqi wanted to go back to her room to sort out the suspicious points, so after eating, the two of them went to the hotel under Xu Che’s lead.

“You rich people really know how to find a good place. You can even find a five-star hotel in such a small and shabby place like J City. Qiqi, I feel like I’m taking advantage of you.” Senior Brother Cheng couldn’t help but smile when he saw the hotel door.

“You’re welcome, you’re welcome!”

The two of them were arranged on different floors, which made it feel inconvenient to Old Cheng. However, because Xu Che said that there were no more rooms, Old Cheng didn’t dare to complain.

“Call me if there’s anything.”

“Okay.” Mu Qiqi nodded.

Xu Che walked Mu Qiqi to the door of her room and swiped the card to open the door for her.

Mu Qiqi was very sleepy after running around all day. However, when she pushed the door open and entered, she blinked, stunned. “Xiao Xiao?”

Sheng Xiao was seated in front of the desk. He had just ended a video call.

When he saw Mu Qiqi return to her room, he leaned against the chair and winked at Mu Qiqi.

“Why are you here?” Mu Qiqi woke up from her drowsiness immediately and jumped onto Sheng Xiao excitedly.

“You weren’t coming home tonight, so I can only warm your bed for you.” Sheng Xiao hugged her and was deeply satisfied. “J City is a little colder than Jianchuan. It’s remote and the security is chaotic. If I didn’t come, what would happen if someone broke into your room at night?”

“You already said you missed me, yet you still found so many excuses for yourself.” Mu Qiqi shot him a disdainful look. “Are you going back early tomorrow morning?”

“It’s up to you,” Sheng Xiao answered leisurely.

“Then I have to hurry up and figure out what’s going on here.” Mu Qiqi got off Sheng Xiao’s body, took out a pen and paper, and started sorting out her thoughts.

According to her previous deduction, Mama Bai had lied.

The neighbor grandfather said that he saw someone send Mama Bai and Bai Xinyi home more than half a month ago.

However, Tang Yan said that Bai Xinyi had bought that necklace two days before she committed suicide. And yet now that the necklace was in Mama Bai’s hands. That meant that the last time the mother and daughter met was within ten days from the suicide.

Mama Bai went out every weekend. Once, she even brought her daughter along on a luxurious car. In other words, Mama Bai brought her daughter to meet someone of high status.

After sorting out all this information, Mu Qiqi called Tang Yan.

After listening to Mu Qiqi, Tang Yan felt that the most important thing to do now was to find out who Mama Bai went to meet every week!

Especially who she met with Bai Xinyi.

“You and Old Cheng can come back after you figure this out.”
