A Star Reborn: The Queen’s Return
chapter-501

Xia Yu arranged a meeting with Xia Yu.

On a sunny afternoon, they met in a box of a high-end Japanese restaurant.

Their surroundings were tranquil.

Xia Yu wore a light grey blouse, carried a Chanel handbag, and had a face full of makeup. She looked pleasant. However, Xia Ling was still sick, and her delicate face was slightly pale, looking weary with her thin frame. Xia Yu was in a good mood when she looked at her. She placed her bag on the table and asked, “Why did you look for me?”

Xia Ling also did not beat around the bush. “You killed my child.”

It was a statement, not a question.

Xia Yu smiled as if she expected this question. She said simply and sarcastically, “Do you have any evidence? If you don’t, then don’t slander people so confidently. In fact, I don’t even know that your baby died. What a pity.”

Xia Ling tightened her grip around her cup of water. She had to resist the urge to throw the cup of water on her.

She already expected Xia Yu not to admit it so easily. In fact, Xia Ling was not so sure if Xia Yu was really the murder. After she composed herself, she said as calmly as she cold, “Xia Yu, stop acting. The only one who wasn’t invited that day was you. You secretly snuck into the villa and murdered the baby.”

Xia Yu was still unmoved. “I was invited by Brother Ziheng on that day. I entered the villa only to look for him.”

“Pei Ziheng never sent you an invitation.”

“Of course, he won’t tell you the truth.” Xia Yu smiled. “Do you think a man will be honest if he arranges a meeting with another woman?”

Xia Ling frowned in disgust. She knew that Xia Yu was shameless, but she did not expect her to be shameless to the extent to say something so degrading. If she were really Pei Ziheng’s loving wife, she might have been extremely hurt by her damaging words like in her past life.

Unfortunately, Xia Yu did not know the reason why she married Pei Ziheng.

“He wouldn’t meet you.” Xia Ling insisted resolutely. “Stop giving bad excuses. When you went to the villa, you entered the baby room and threw the baby in the rubbish bin.”

Xia Yu felt a little uneasy after hearing her talk about the details of her plan. Could it be that she really found out that she was the murder of her child? However, no matter what, Xia Yu would never admit it. This was a heinous crime, and she was being accused as the murderer. If Xia Ling had a voice recording device on her, she would be asking for trouble if she admitted it.

“I don’t understand what you’re saying.” Xia Yu smiled lightly. “Your child is dead. Don’t try to randomly accuse and pin the blame on me. If you want to blame someone, just blame yourself for not being able to protect him well. That’s why you were ditched by Brother Ziheng.”

The news that Xia Ling left the Pei Family to return back to Li Lei’s side spread like wildfire all over the country. In the beginning, everyone bashed her for being a shameless woman who only cared about money. They thought that she wanted to marry into a wealthy family, and once she realized that the Pei Family was about to collapse, she escaped using the fastest speed.

However, soon, those rumors quickly subsided.

They disappeared so quickly that Xia Ling did not even feel that she was being scolded.

However, Xia Yu knew about everything and guessed that Li Lei secretly helped her. She was extremely jealous. How was this b*tch able to get two excellent men to protect her?

Xia Yu was emotional and sounded harsh when she spoke. “I just knew you were a curse. You were only with Brother Ziheng for less than a year, but his son died, and Imperial Entertainment almost went bankrupt. Once you left, Imperial had a comeback. It was right for Brother Ziheng to divorce you. A person like you is not worthy of him to give him a child. The death of that child is rightful.”

A vicious and ugly smile appeared on her face.

Xia Ling wanted to tear her mouth apart listening to her, but she continued to endure it as she was focused on the task today. She coldly asked, “You really didn’t kill my child?”

“How could it be me?” Xia Yu looked delicate, and her tone was also very delicate and filled with a sense of superiority. “Do you think I look a murderer? It’s just too bad that the child is so unlucky such that his murderer can’t be found even after his death.” She elegantly drank her tea and smiled. “Oh yes, if you find the murderer, remember to tell me.”

Xia Ling’s face was as cold as ice. She stopped talking to her. Taking her bag, she left the restaurant.

Outside the restaurant, there was a modified cross country car waiting for her.

Xia Ling got on the car. Her expression was still as deadly as before. “This Xia Yu!” She slammed her bag against the windshield and said fiercely, “Regardless of whether she killed my baby, I won’t let her off!” She recalled the mocking insults about her child and firmly concluded that she would definitely seek revenge.

Li Lei sat on the driver’s seat.

Li Lei asked her, “Did you get the recording?”

Xia Ling nodded. She took out a voice recorder from her pocket and handed it to Li Lei. She asked Li Lei curiously, “What are you going to with this? She didn’t even confess, so we can’t use it as evidence.”

“I don’t want evidence.” Li Lei said while driving. “I only want to help you determine if she killed your child.”

“How are you going to determine that using this?”

“You will know when we arrive.”

Li Lei drove the car along an unfrequented road to a strange place. As he helped Xia Ling off the car, they walked through an alley and walked down a narrow staircase to get to an underground base.

The underground base was spacious and bright. From the to time, researchers with badges passed by.

Xia Ling asked, “Where is this place?”

Li Lei said, “A business under my name that does some interesting research.”

She knew that he had many businesses, but did not expect him to even have one related to underground research. He brought her into a room. Inside, a researcher was waiting for them.

Li Lei handed the recording pen to him and said, “Jack, do an analysis and see if there are any lies in this conversation.”

Jack nodded. He took the recording pen and placed it in a sophisticated machine.

Soon, the results of the analysis were out. He said, “One of the voices, the child’s mother, did not lie. The other voice said many lies. She lied about Brother Ziheng inviting her to the villa and that she went to the villa for a meeting. Her biggest lie was that she did not murder the child. The probability that she murdered the child is 0.9 and above.”

“How do you know?” Xia Ling anxiously asked. “Is this result accurate?”
