Chapter 831. Master Mu Returns (3)
Su Chen went quiet. He rubbed his nose and said, “If this is true, you have to be careful with Qi Feng, Ah Chen.”
Mu Yuchen handed the tablet back to Li Si, glancing out of the window. “It’s within my expectations. Tell Ah Mo he doesn’t need to stay there anymore. Get him to come back.”
“Master, aren’t we looking for Qi Feng anymore?” Li Si looked at Mu Yuchen in doubt.
“He has something he wants here, so he’ll definitely be back. Given the current situation, it’d best benefit your Master. Though Qi Lei did lose out on a great deal of influence, he still holds a certain amount of power when his mother, Wang Qin, was around, but with her death, most of the people who sided with her now follow Qi Qiming.”
Su Chen shrugged as he glanced at Mu Yuchen. “Ah Chen, I hope he isn’t someone who can’t stand up on his own. I know you have an interest in Qi Lei. He has a good heart, but I can’t sense the determination in him. He isn’t really resolute to do something. That drive of determination could be something core that is needed in many critical moments. This has been proven many times in history.”
Mu Yuchen’s eyes darkened as he put one hand on his forehead. “I don’t understand. Why would Gu Qiwu want Wang Qin dead? Did Qi Qiming ask him to do so? Or was it Qi Feng?”
This question had been troubling Mu Yuchen and was the only thing he could not understand throughout this incident. He felt that Gu Qiwu had no reason to kill Wang Qin. Everything had its consequences, and Wang Qin’s death did not seem to bring Gu Qiwu any benefits, so why would he have done that?
Su Chen gave it some thought before saying, “If you’re sure it’s Gu Qiwu’s plan, then find the murderer to pinpoint him. Maybe he’ll tell the truth.”
Mu Yuchen shook his head. “Not really. We don’t have any evidence to show that Gu Qiwu ordered him to do so, and the murderer’s identity can only be investigated by the police. We can’t waste our time and energy on this. Actually, I’m quite lucky to get out of this tight spot. I felt uneasy when I received a call from Ah Bao. Unfortunately, I was unable to save Wang Qin.”
