Qin Sheng rubbed her stomach. Gong Mochen had already filled her with tonic soup. Her stomach was warm from drinking it. She really didn't think she could drink anymore soup.
"I drank quite a lot just now. I'll drink it later," she decided to say.
Yin Yin's brows sank. Then, she moved closer to Qin Sheng, still holding out the bowl of soup.
She knelt down and brought the bowl up to Qin Sheng's lips with both hands.
Qin Sheng was taken aback. She didn't expect Yin Yin to feed her soup like this.
"Yin Yin, get up. I really don't want to drink it," she explained.
Li Ang reached out to help Yin Yin get up, but Yin Yin was stubborn. She held the bowl with one hand and pointed at Qin Sheng's stomach with the other.
Li Ang understood. "You mean, you want to apologize to Qin Sheng for accidentally kicking her?"
Yin Yin nodded. She stared at Qin Sheng and looked as if she was about to cry.
Only then did Qin Sheng understand that Yin Yin was kneeling down to apologize to her.
If it was just an accidental kick, then this apology was really too much.
"Please get up. My injury isn't serious. There's no need to kneel down to apologize. Besides, you're injured too," she said.
Just now, she heard very clearly that Gong Mochen had hit Yin Yin hard, and now, Yin Yin was kneeling down to her. It seemed that they were too cruel to Yin Yin!
"You get up. Qin Sheng won't be angry." Li Ang pulled Yin Yin's arm.
Yin Yin shook her head and refused to get up no matter what. She kept raising the soup bowl in her hand.
Qin Sheng understood what Yin Yin meant. She wanted her to drink the tonic soup before she could forgive her.
"Alright, I'll drink the tonic soup. Get up."
She took the soup bowl and sat up, wanting to drink the soup inside it.
Gong Mochen, who had been silent all this time, took a step forward and took the soup bowl from Qin Sheng's hand.
"Wait a minute," he shouted at the door. "Nie Feng, go and test this bowl of soup."
Nie Feng immediately took the soup out.
Li Ang was surprised. "Gong Mochen, what do you mean? Are you afraid that Yin Yin will poison Qin Sheng?"
No one was angry anymore. But because it was Yin Yin who brought the soup, Gong Mochen made a big fuss and wanted to test it.
Yin Yin lowered her gaze, but she hid her nervousness well.
Like a groundhog, she moved closer to Li Ang, pitiful.
Li Ang pulled Yin Yin up. "No need to kneel. Qin Sheng has already forgiven you."
He felt that Gong Mochen was being too harsh. He was afraid that Yin Yin wouldn't be able to withstand such suspicion.
"The soup was stewed by Nie Fang. There won't be a problem with it. Tell Nie Feng to come back!" said Qin Sheng. She also felt that Gong Mochen had gone too far. This was no different from humiliating Yin Yin.
Gong Mochen's gaze landed on Qin Sheng's small face, but he didn't say anything.
Qin Sheng rolled her eyes at him. She knew that he cared about her, but this was a little too much. However, a warmth rippled through her heart at the thought of being cared about like this.
The door was pushed open and Nie Feng walked in. His expression was severe.
"President, there's poison in the soup."
Nie Feng's words shocked everyone.
"What did you say? There's poison in the soup? Are you sure?" Li Ang asked loudly.
"I don't think I'm wrong. All the cockroaches that touched the soup are dead!" Nie Feng said.
The boss asked him to go and check the soup. How could he have time to go to the hospital for a test? He asked his men to grab a few cockroaches from the garbage and sprinkled the soup on them.
And in a short while, the cockroaches were dead. Didn't this mean that there was poison in the soup?
Gong Mochen's gaze landed on Yin Yin's face. "Do you have anything to say?"
Yin Yin was so scared that she grabbed onto Li Ang's leg and refused to let go. Tears rolled down her face and she couldn't help but shake her head.
Li Ang looked at Yin Yin in a daze. His eyes were filled with doubt.
Yin Yin shook her head forcefully. She let go of Li Ang's leg and crashed into the wall.
Li Ang hurriedly grabbed Yin Yin's hand. Just as she was about to crash into the wall again, he pulled her back.
He looked at Gong Mochen. "What right do you have to say that it was Yin Yin? Where did she get the poison? Moreover, it's not like she stewed the soup."
He regretted that he had doubted Yin Yin.
Before Gong Mochen could speak, Nie Feng stepped forward. "The soup was stewed by my sister. Do you mean my sister poisoned it?"
"What else? Do you think your sister isn't a suspect?" Li Ang quickly retorted.
Gong Mochen said coldly, "Go and bring Nie Fang here."
Nie Feng immediately went out to call Nie Fang in.
Nie Fang's face was pale, and she looked like she was scared silly. "I didn't put the poison in. It wasn't me!"
"I know it wasn't you! But tell me what happened. Who else touched the soup?" Nie Feng asked.
"I made the soup. The room was too hot, so I opened the door. When the soup was ready, I was going to bring it over to the CEO. Then Yin Yin walked over. She gestured for her to deliver it, so I gave it to her."
Nie Fang explained, but she held back some details.
Certain details she couldn't tell, just in case she implicated herself...
Yin Yin had walked over with a ring in her hand and asked if it belonged to Nie Fang. From Yin Yin's gestures, Nie Fang could tell that Yin Yin had found the ring in the corridor.
The ring wasn't a very valuable gemstone, but it was still a beautiful crystal ring. Crystals of all colors were embedded together, making it look very opulent.
In a moment of greed, Nie Fang had said that the ring was hers.
But Yin Yin asked her to put it on to prove that the ring was hers.
She carried the soup bowl back to her room and put on the ring.
The ring suited her. It really looked like her ring.
She happily appreciated what she was wearing. Then, Yin Yin picked up the bowl of soup and gestured that she would take it to Qin Sheng's room.
She let Yin Yin take the soup. Who would have thought that her brother would say that the soup was poisonous!
Yin Yin nodded, indicating that Nie Fang was right.
"Besides the two of you, who else touched the soup? Or has anyone been to your room?" Gong Mochen asked Nie Fang.
"There was no one else. It was just the two of us," Nie Fang said.
"Since no one else has touched it, it means that one of you poisoned the soup!" Nie Feng's gaze landed on Yin Yin's face.
Yin Yin hurriedly shook her head, indicating that it wasn't her.
Nie Fang also cried loudly, pulling her brother and saying that it wasn't her!
"Go and check their rooms and see if there's any leftover poison?" Gong Mochen ordered.
Nie Feng immediately sent people to check, and Li Ang followed worriedly.
Nie Fang's and Yin Yin's rooms weren't big. Nothing suspicious was found in Yin Yin's room. But in Nie Fang's room, beside the soup pot, someone found a bit of white powder.
The person who found it collected the powder onto a piece of paper and handed it to Gong Mochen. "President, I found a bit of white powder."
"See if Sikong Jue has left yet? Ask him to come over and see what this is," Gong Mochen ordered.
Sikong Jue was soon found and was called over. He was full of anger. He had been looking for Chu Xia for the whole morning, but Chu Xia was busy with work and said she didn't have time to see him.
She had time to show off her love with Ming Tai, but didn't even have time to see him...
He hadn't even been able to speak to her, and his face looked like a slapped ass.
"What is it that you want me for?" he asked.
"What is this white powder?" Gong Mochen handed the powder to Sikong Jue.
