“Why is it so serious?” Li Qianming’s low voice reached Chi Yaoxi’s ears.
Hearing the man’s familiar voice, Chi Yaoxi felt inexplicably at ease. She knew that there was a limit to visiting hours like this, so she should quickly get to the point. “Someone must be trying to frame me on purpose. The police said to use the surveillance footage as evidence. I don’t think the surveillance footage can prove anything. It could have been edited. Li… Qian Ming, please help me check the surveillance footage on the deck.” She was still not used to calling the man’s name, but that was all she could do.
“I’ve already sent someone to check. The surveillance cameras on the deck of the cruise are damaged.”
The surveillance cameras on the deck were damaged? Chi Yaoxi became even more anxious after hearing this. Things did not go the way she expected.
“Then, what’s the point of me looking for witnesses to testify? I must have just finished talking to Xiao Ye when the accident happened. There was only a few minutes between the two matters.”
Li Qianming didn’t answer, he picked up his phone and called, “Lawyer Tang, come in for a moment.” Seeing the man doing his best to help her think of a solution, even bringing his lawyer over, Chi Yaoxi felt grateful.
After understanding the situation, Lawyer Tang gave his opinion. “The lawsuit does not stipulate that friends cannot become witnesses, but the testimony of acquaintances is very ineffective. It’s not very useful. We can only try our best. There are benefits and no disadvantages.”
The few of them reached an agreement and Chi Yaoxi finally saw a glimmer of hope.
On the way home, the little fella switched on his computer. He was constantly paying attention to news about his mommy on the internet. The little fella knew that he couldn’t help with other important matters, but he could still handle the rumors online.
The moment the computer turned on, the little guy’s eyes widened in surprise. He saw that bad news and many pictures had appeared on the Internet again! Moreover, many websites were reposting it. Mommy’s bad news had always been at the top of the search rankings. Even the entire media and entertainment industry was in an uproar.
The child was panicking and worried for his mother. Why wasn’t the news suppressed when the websites had been hacked?! There were more and more rumors on all the major media networks. Did something go wrong? The little fellow hugged his computer and scratched his cheek anxiously.
On the day of the incident, Xiao Ye received a call. The board of directors of the company was in a mess because of the dispute over the shares.
By the time he heard the news, Chi Yaoxi had already been taken away by the police.
Initially, he thought that Chi Yaoxi was just assisting in the investigation, so she followed along to record a statement and would return very quickly.
While Xiao Ye was in a meeting, he received a call from the police. They said that Chi Yaoxi was still in the detention center and asked him to testify.
Xiao Ye was stunned for a moment before he realized the seriousness of the matter. He quickly left the company’s mess and hurriedly drove out.
Xiao Ye, who had always been calm when dealing with matters, could no longer remain calm this time. He tried his best to sort out his thoughts. On the way, he turned on the speaker and made a call while driving.
After asking around, he found out that the police officer said that Chi Yaoxi had sufficient motive for the crime and that there was evidence of someone at the crime scene. The time and location coincided with each other, and if there were no other certified material evidence, she might be sentenced.
Xiao Ye frowned deeply and his eyes were filled with ruthlessness. These police officers really had limited ability to solve cases!
“Chief Liao, this matter has blown up big time. I can stand as a witness and it won’t be a problem even if it costs me. The most important thing is to send professional police officers to investigate and collect evidence at the scene to clear Miss Chi’s name!”
When Xiao Ye finished arranging everything and arrived at the detention center to see Chi Yaoxi, his heart couldn’t help but ache.
This was really not a place for people to stay. It had only been a day and a night, but Chi Yaoxi had already become haggard.
Xiao Ye walked over and shook Chi Ya’s hand forcefully, telling her not to worry. He was thinking of a way to deal with it. Chi Yaoxi was full of gratitude. She didn’t say anything and only gently nodded.

Because of Xiao Ye’s testimony, it reduced Chi Yaoxi’s motive for murder. The police finally relented.
“Can we pay the bail now?” Xiao Ye asked anxiously.
“There are still some relevant procedures to complete. It won’t be that fast.”
Upon hearing this news, Chi Yaoxi’s nervous and uneasy heart relaxed a little. There was finally a glimmer of hope.
Looking at the busy Xiao Ye, Chi Yaoxi felt a deep sense of relief. It was a good thing she had such a good friend who supported her wholeheartedly.
At the same time, the police officers who went to the scene of the accident also sent news. They went to the crime scene to collect evidence again and found the place where the dead female celebrity fell into the water. They found an unknown shoe print, which was completely different from Chi Yaoxi’s high heels.
After the matter was investigated and the truth was out, Chi Yaoxi could be released in the afternoon after all the procedures were completed.
After walking out of the detention center’s gate, Chi Yaoxi was enlightened suddenly. She took a deep breath of the fresh air outside. The warm sun slanted down. The weather was wonderful. It was wonderful to be free.
Not far away, Chi Yaoxi saw Xiao Ye leaning in front of the car, arms crossed, waiting for her with a smile in his eyes.
Chi Yaoxi looked around again. Her happy expression instantly turned a little lonely. Li Qianming and the little guy didn’t come. Perhaps they did not know that she could be released at this time.
Chi Yaoxi didn’t say anything. She adjusted her mood, a grateful smile on her face as she walked towards Xiao Ye.
“How is it? You must be scared out of your wits after such a huge shock.” Xiao Ye said half-jokingly as he turned to help Chi Yaoxi open the passenger seat door.
“That’s right. At first, I thought it was just a misunderstanding. Then, I lost my freedom in the detention center. I was really worried. Fortunately, I had a good friend like you to help me escape. I can’t thank you enough for your kindness.”
Listening to Xiao Ye’s hearty laughter, Chi Yaoxi was just about to sit in the car when she discovered an exquisite large box on the seat.
Xiao Ye nudged his lips at her and said, “Open it and see if you like it. It’s a gift for you.”
Chi Yaoxi opened the box happily and saw a cute little bear! How warm. Why did it feel like she was being pampered?
“So cute! Little bear! And it’s pink! I love it!” Chi Yaoxi was so happy that she couldn’t close her mouth. She hugged the little bear in her arms and couldn’t bear to let go.
Seeing her happy expression, Xiao Ye’s lips curled up into a smile. Indeed, the books were right. No matter how capable and domineering a woman was, she still had the heart of a young girl.
Chi Yaoxi turned around and looked at Xiao Ye who was focused on driving. She couldn’t help but sigh. “Xiao Ye, you’re such a heartwarming man. Any woman who marries you will be so happy that they won’t be able to sleep.”

Xiao Ye raised his eyebrows, glanced at Chi Yaoxi, and replied, “That depends on what that woman thinks.”
“Alright, stop pretending in front of me.” Chi Yaoxi suddenly reached out and patted Xiao Ye’s shoulder, saying with a smile, “You’re tall and handsome, have a successful career, and have a good temper. Not to mention outside, even in the company, there will be many beauties rushing to throw themselves at
you!”
Xiao Ye shook his head helplessly and smiled. “That’s their business. It has nothing to do with me. I have a goddess in my heart. Other women are nothing to me.”
Chi Yaoxi was too familiar with Xiao Ye and had heard him joking around too many times. She didn’t think much of it, only curling her lips and smiling.
