I trusted Pan Xiaorou's abilities because she was the current chairwoman of Jiangling Group.
But I hadn't expected her to be so formidable. She had only said last night that she would protect Meng Yifan, and by the end of this morning, she had already sorted it out.
"That video was what really made the difference."
Song Xiaotian said, "With that video and Pan Xiaorou involved, the police are bound to release Meng Yifan."
I nodded. I understood that too.
If we had been the ones to show the police that video, it might not have had nearly as much effect.
But Pan Xiaorou was different. The police wouldn't dare brush her off.
In any case, I could finally stop worrying.
As long as Meng Yifan was all right, everything was fine.
Song Xiaotian said, "Xiang Kai's body has also been sent to the funeral home. Pan Xiaorou will probably be holding his funeral soon. With two major figures dying one after another, the business community in Lanjiang City has been pretty shaken up."
After all, Xiang Kai had been a prominent businessman too.
A lot of people were bound to attend his funeral.
As his widow, Pan Xiaorou still had to keep up appearances. Otherwise, people would gossip, which would hurt her business image.
Song Xiaotian had been so happy about Meng Yifan just a moment ago, but now he looked worried.

"Pan Xiaorou?" I was a little surprised. "Isn't she supposed to be arranging her husband's funeral?"
His body had already been taken to the funeral home, so surely she had to start making Xiang Kai's funeral arrangements right away.
Even
