deep white secret

Chapter 53 The Triangle
Xiao Song stared at Ningxia, and Ningxia asked with a smile:
"How long have you been coming to Tianqi?"

"Two years."

"Where's Yang Pearl?"

"We are almost the same, only three months apart."

Xiao Song and Ning Xia were about the same age. Ning Xia was a policeman and easier to trust, so Xiao Song slowly relaxed.

"What do you think of Li Wenrui as a person?"

"How would you rate it? As a director, I am very capable and our company is very profitable. Although I am at the front desk, I make a lot of money."

"But ah."

Xiao Song Xiangxiang continued:
"Apart from work, I don't dare to compliment you in other aspects, especially the relationship between men and women, but I can't say this kind of thing."

"Then you try to talk about it, including the relationship between Yang Pearl and Li Wenrui. What do you think?"

Xiao Song stared at Ning Xia closely, hesitating to speak.

"You don't have to worry. We are talking to understand the case. The purpose of asking you is also to know the true relationship between Yang Zhenzhu, Zhou Xiaodan and Li Wenrui."

"In addition to you, I will also ask other people in a while. One person's testimony is not that important to our investigation. Do you think that everyone needs to be questioned, so you are not so stressed?"

"Well, what do you say to Yang Pearl? We all look down on her, but if we can, the director likes her."

"I understand this. Where is Zhou Xiaodan? Since everyone knows the relationship between the three people in the company, doesn't Zhou Xiaodan feel embarrassed?"

"President Zhou is amazing. Many of us envy her, but we also think she is pitiful. What's the use? She's good-looking, rich and capable, but her husband doesn't want to see her."

"I heard this is Zhou Xiaodan's father's company."

"Yeah, but after I joined the company, Director Li had the final say. President Zhou didn't come to the company very often."

"Don't care about business?"

Ning Xia was puzzled that this was different from what Yang Zhenzhu said just now.

"No matter what, I don't know about the upper management of our investment company, but when I receive these customers at the front desk, it is Director Li who receives them."

"Is there a relationship between Zhou Xiaodan and the secretary in her office?"

Xiao Song smiled softly:

"The police officer really knows everything. Has this been revealed through investigation? I'd say, no! How is that possible? I feel like everyone is just guessing without knowing the situation."

Ningxia shook her head:

"You're just talking about this kind of thing just to make a fool of yourself?"

"I don't know how these words came out. In the past, the president didn't come to the company, and the secretary followed Director Li. After Director Li had an accident, he helped President Zhou with his work."

"I understand, even if two people come into contact, it may not last long."

Xiao Song nodded fiercely:
"That's what I meant."

Ning Xia suddenly realized that if Zhou Xiaodan had a relationship with his secretary, it was probably Yang Zhenzhu who was making false accusations.

"What about the relationship between Zhou Xiaodan and Li Wenrui? Since the relationship between the two of them has already existed in name only, is there anything else going on? Such as quarreling? Getting a divorce?"

"I haven't heard of it, but Yang Zhuzhu said that she had. Officer, to put it bluntly, I don't believe a word of Yang Zhuzhu's words."

"You usually have the most contact with Yang Pearl. Has she ever thought about marrying Li Wenrui?"

"Marry Director Li? No, you won't. She is a very snobbish and realistic woman. She won't do it. Besides, why would you marry her? Besides, Director Li won't marry her either."

"What does it mean?"

"Ah, officer, it's so easy to understand. It's okay for a girl in her 20s to find an uncle when she's young. But if she loses her passion in a few years, she won't go the same way as her ex-wife. It's better to make more money now."

"How old are you?"

"24."

Ning Xia looked at this girl of the same age as herself. This was a completely different outlook on life.

"I don't understand, why doesn't Zhou Xiaodan divorce Li Wenrui?"

"I don't know, but I heard that Director Li has been running the company for several years and is completely tied to the company's interests. If Director Li leaves, the company will lose more."

Ningxia recognizes this, and it is consistent with Zhou Xiaodan's statement.

"Then if you analyze it again, what will happen to the company if something happens to Zhou Xiaodan?"

"Mr. Zhou? Isn't it just the past few days? It scared us. Director Li didn't come to work for several days. If something happens to Mr. Zhou again, then our company will be finished."

"No, I don't quite understand your financial affairs. Let's assume that if nothing happens to Director Li, but something happens to Zhou Xiaodan, what will happen?"

"Ah, that's it...Then the whole company belongs to Director Li. I know that although Director Li is running the company, Mr. Zhou actually owns the most shares."

Ningxia understood this time that Zhou Xiaodan had no motive for murdering Li Wenrui. In order to maximize her interests, she would endure a hopeless and shameful marriage.

But Li Wenrui is different. Murdering Zhou Xiaodan will maximize Li Wenrui's interests.

The triangular relationship between these three people also rules out the possibility of Yang Zhenzhu murdering Zhou Xiaodan and taking the opportunity to rise to power.

"How does Yang Pearl perform at work?"

"Too bad, there are only two of us at the front desk. She often makes excuses to leave, either to go to the coffee shop to check her phone, or to go to Director Li blatantly."

Speaking of this, Xiao Song's face was filled with displeasure:

"But what can be done? Who told her to climb a high branch? Everyone in the company will turn a blind eye or close an eye. Even Mr. Zhou doesn't care. No one among us dares to mess with her."

Ningxia felt quite helpless.

"It's also unfair."

Xiao Song sighed:
"This is the way the world is. There is nothing fair or unfair. Whoever can lean on a big tree can enjoy the shade. Being rich and powerful is the ideal in life."

"Now that Li Wenrui is dead, can Yang Pearl still stay in the company?"

"She resigned. She found out the day before yesterday that Director Li had been killed, so she submitted her resignation immediately. However, our company stipulates that she can only resign after a week. She is still waiting for President Zhou to sign."

"So it is."

Xiao Song's expression changed from indignant at first to a little envious at the end:
"Officer, we are about the same age."

"Ah."

"Look, I know you eat public food, but you may not earn as much as me. What do you think we are doing in this life?"

Ningxia didn't think about this problem. The two of them leaned back on their chairs and looked out the window at the same time.

"I used to look down on Yang Zhuzhu, who was a shameless mistress, but now I quite envy her. If Mr. Zhou doesn't make things difficult for her, Yang Zhenzhu will go smoothly and get a lot of money from Director Li in the past few years."

"Are you envious?"

Ningxia didn't understand.

"Of course, that money is enough for Yang Zhenzhu to buy a big house in Jinghai City. What about me? How many years will it take to buy a house? It may not be possible in my lifetime."

Ningxia was shocked by Xiao Song's words:

"I don't consider having a big house in Jinghai City as my life ideal."

Xiao Song snorted coldly:
"That's it, officer. Are you doing well?"

"No, I live a simple life."

Xiao Song smiled:

"Everyone has his or her own ambitions. Maybe it's because of the kind of person a police officer is that he chooses to be a police officer?"

Ningxia did not answer.

Yang Zhenzhu and Xiao Song are about the same age, but because of their different views on life, the three of them have embarked on completely different paths in life.

Ningxia asked herself, the answer is yes, the police did not choose the wrong path.
