Capítulo 1977: Chapter 1970: How could it be him?

“I’ll explain it to you in detail when I get back.” Qin Jian left those words behind and disappeared into the night.

………………

By the time Qin Jian arrived at Nanguofeng, the restaurant was already closing.

Lin Qiushu was standing in the hall, directing a group to clean up quickly. When she saw Qin Jian coming over, she felt somewhat surprised.

“Brother, why are you here?”

“I’m here to talk to you about something.”

Qin Jian pulled Lin Qiushu into a corner and quietly explained the situation to her.

Lin Qiushu stared at him in shock for a while before saying, “I’ll go call her over now, you ask her about the specifics!”

A few minutes later, the female waitress stood in front of Qin Jian.

“You… looking for me?”

“I need to understand something from you!” Qin Jian looked at her and said.

“What do you want to know from me?” The waitress seemed a bit nervous.

It was her first time doing such a thing; she didn’t know selling national secrets was against the law and could result in a sentence.

But seeing Qin Jian’s serious face made her inexplicably nervous.

She felt she had done something she perhaps shouldn’t have.

“Yesterday, when we were having dinner, did you hear anything?” Qin Jian didn’t give her the time to prepare mentally and asked directly.

“No… no…” The female waitress didn’t dare to admit.

“Stop lying. This news has already spread everywhere, and the police are digging three feet, trying to find the person who leaked the secret! Do you know what the consequences of being caught are? If you cooperate now and tell me the truth, maybe I can help and prevent them from arresting you. But if you resist stubbornly…”

The female waitress feared going to prison and was terrified of everything that had yet to happen.

So she didn’t need Qin Jian to ask more; she spilled everything like beans from a bamboo tube, explaining how An Hui bribed her yesterday and made her eavesdrop on the conversation, all to Qin Jian!

Looking at Qin Jian’s increasingly grim face, the female waitress knew she had caused a big problem and was so nervous she nearly fainted: “I truly didn’t know it was illegal! Please, don’t let the police arrest me; I only received two hundred yuan from him, and I’ll give it all back to you!”

After hearing everything, Qin Jian ignored her completely, picked up the umbrella, and turned to leave.

When Qin Jian returned home, Ning Yibin and An Hao were both sitting on the couch waiting for the news he had brought.

“Did you find out the source of the information leak?” Ning Yibin asked.

“I did.” Qin Jian nodded, his gaze shifting towards An Hao.

“Who?” Ning Yibin asked.

Qin Jian’s gaze settled on An Hao’s face, and he slowly opened his mouth, saying, “An Hui!”

“How could it be him?” An Hao widened her eyes in astonishment.

“I don’t know why it’s him, but he has been identified by someone!” Qin Jian said.

Initially, An Hao couldn’t believe it; she just thought her second uncle’s family had been particularly unlucky lately.

But she quickly figured out what happened.

Seeing that for a period, An Hui had been diligently trying to get close to her, being incredibly nice to her family.

At the time, she just thought An Hui had had a conscience revelation and was gradually changing for the better.

But after the incident with Tian Ermei, she thought An Hui approached her for money.

Now it seems that An Hui got close to her just to enter the Ning Family, gaining access to a military family like theirs, naturally providing more opportunities to learn more information.
