281 I Didn't Mean to Hurt You (1)

"The thug claimed that he carried out the assault because Ms Qiao wrote a negative article about him in the past. Apparently she exposed an affair between a certain female celebrity and a third party, and the third party was this thug. There's full evidence for his testimony, but apart from that he refuses to admit responsibility. There's nothing the police can do about that, but they've taken him into custody for now."

Song Cheng paused after this update and continued, "Brother Shen, do you think someone's behind this?"

Shen Liangchuan coughed twice. Since he had just woken up, his voice was hoarse and he spoke slowly, "It's not important whether we have evidence of who is behind this. The most important thing is that we all know who it is. Please assign two bodyguards to protect Ms Qiao."

Song Cheng responded, "… Yes."

Qiao Lian was standing outside the door, and a warm feeling momentarily engulfed her when she overheard the conversation.
