Chapter 102: It's Too Late.

Shi Caining was stunned. Regarding Qiao Chengnan... Did he make any progress?

Before she could ask, Qiao Chengchuan had already walked towards the nearby coffee shop.

The surroundings of times square were filled with popular shops, but this coffee shop was exceptionally quiet. Other than the lovers who were whispering and the faint music, there was no more noise.

Qiao Chengchuan brought Shi Caining to sit in a private room. Once the door was closed, the space inside became even quieter.

He looked around and Shi Caining pursed her lips. "If you have something to say, just say it. I don't want to drink coffee."

She had barely slept last night, and her eyes were still a little dry.

If she drank another cup of coffee, she would have to stay up late again.

"We're investigating Chengnan... We found some clues, but it's still not obvious."

Qiao Chengchuan said softly, his eyes looking at her tenderly. "Before this, Shuangwei and I... Will not get married. So don't feel too much pressure. Now... I'm 80% sure that the car accident was intentionally planned."

The blood all over Shi Caining's body froze, her eyes slightly red. "Chengchuan, are you really... So sure?"

"Yes, I'm sorry, Caining! These past five years... I didn't dare to ask about you, afraid that once I heard about you... I wouldn't be able to resist coming back to see you. In these past five years, you've received a lot of unfair treatment. My sister... Is indeed out of line. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for her!"

Qiao Chengchuan lowered his voice and said, his eyes filled with pain and regret.

Shi Caining's nose turned sour.

What kind of life had she been living these past five years?

It could be said that it was a kind of day that she had fallen from heaven to hell. The Shi family's company had gone bankrupt, and when the Shi family went to look for a job, not a single one of them would be able to work long term.

Her foster father treated her like his own daughter, and he had never blamed her. However, Mo Xiao treated her like a calamity. She never had a good expression on her face, and she never had a good word to say.

At first, that year, Shi Caining almost collapsed mentally. She tried to commit suicide once but failed. Later, she received a threatening letter saying that if she committed suicide, the entire Shi family would be buried together with her.

She couldn't bear it. She couldn't bear to have her little brother die with her.

She couldn't bear to have her grandfather, grandmother, foster father, and sister, who loved her, suffer a greater calamity because of her.

So, she persevered and used her experience in psychology to constantly encourage herself and vent out the pain in her heart.

Now, it was too late for Qiao Chengchuan to apologize.

"What's the use of apologizing now? Chengchuan, I've already survived for five years. I only hope... You guys can really find out the truth and don't let Chengnan die in vain!" Shi Caining sniffed, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Qiao Chengchuan was stunned for a moment and nodded bitterly. "I know this apology... It's too late. We'll definitely find out the truth about Chengnan. I'm looking for you... I just hope you don't have any more psychological pressure. Chengnan didn't die because of you..."

At this moment, the waiter brought the coffee, but Shi Caining didn't touch the coffee.

After the waiter left, Qiao Chengchuan continued to say in a low voice, "You've been insisting... That you didn't seduce Chengnan. I should have believed you."

Shi Caining laughed sarcastically. "Is there any meaning in saying this now?"
