Seeing her speaking in such a vicious tone, Sun Xiaomeng immediately couldn't stand it and reprimanded, "Hey, watch your language! We're here in good faith to learn about the situation. Even if you don't cooperate, there's no need to have this attitude, right?"

"And also, Xie Wending is your father. Your father was just killed, and as his daughter, you have no reaction at all! Do you have any humanity left?"

"What if I don't have humanity? Do I need you to tell me off? If you dare to keep blabbering, believe it or not, I'll slap you!"

Xie Yingying glared at Sun Xiaomeng, her tone extremely hostile.

"You..."

Sun Xiaomeng was so angry she couldn't speak.

"Enough, Xiaomeng, stop talking!" Bai Wenrou waved her hand, interrupting her.

She then stared at Xie Yingying and said seriously, "I know why you're avoiding! You're scared, aren't you?"

"Hmph! What nonsense are you saying? What am I supposed to be scared of? Scared that you'll take me to the police station? If you dare, go ahead and take me away; let's see if I'm scared!"

Xie Yingying sneered disdainfully, her face full of mockery.

"I'm not talking about that!"

Bai Wenrou said calmly, "You're afraid your father's enemies will come for you, afraid you'll meet the same end as him! That's why you're deliberately acting this way, trying to pretend that you don't care about anything. I'm not wrong, am I?"

Hearing this, Xie Yingying's expression changed slightly.

A trace of panic flashed deep in her eyes but was quickly hidden away. She angrily shouted, "I don't know what you're talking about! What my dad did has nothing to do with me; why should I be afraid?"

Bai Wenrou was always observant, and Xie Yingying's subtle change in expression was naturally picked up by her, reinforcing her suspicion.

She calmly organized her thoughts and said, "Whether you are afraid or not, you don't need to tell me; you know it well yourself! Because, you once dated Qi Bin's son, so you should know some things that are not to be disclosed, right? Maybe I guess, you even know how your father died and who harmed him! But you don't dare to point them out, because you're afraid they'll retaliate against you. Instead, you're trying everything to avoid responsibility, not wanting the trouble to come to yourself."

Seeing Xie Yingying was about to argue, Bai Wenrou immediately said, "Don't rush to deny it. Since I can say these judgments out loud, I'm not talking nonsense! Firstly, I guess that your relationship with your father was not as bad as it appears on the surface. On the contrary, your relationship was probably very good."

"That's why you can't be indifferent to his death; this is not the behavior of a child to their parent! Moreover, when your dad was still alive, your personality was completely different from now. You were very warm and generous back then, which is vastly different from your current character. A person's personality cannot change so drastically, so I can conclude you're pretending..."

"Additionally, when I just revealed you're pretending, your expression became unnatural; this is a normal reaction when someone guesses your thoughts correctly! It shows your plan has been seen through, so you're feeling guilty. Though you've hidden it well, your reactions still reveal your true thoughts."

Bai Wenrou stared at Xie Yingying and drew a definitive conclusion, "Miss Xie, you're worried those people will retaliate against you too, like they did with your father! So you've been disguising yourself, not just for us but also for those watching you! Am I wrong?"

Xie Yingying felt guilty under Bai Wenrou's gaze, quickly diverting her eyes and dared not meet Bai Wenrou, replying indifferently:

"I don't understand what you're talking about, nor do I want to bother with you."

After speaking, she prepared to raise the car window again, unwilling to continue the conversation with Bai Wenrou.

"Xie Yingying, do you think that by acting indifferent, you can stay safe? Your disguise, even I can easily spot flaws, let alone the killers who murdered your father; if they can't see through it, they'd be truly foolish! By behaving like this, you're even more dangerous, pushing yourself into the fire." Bai Wenrou quickly countered.

Upon hearing this, Xie Yingying's body unconsciously shuddered, her eyes showing a struggle, sitting silent in her chair.

After a long moment, she exhaled deeply, lowered the car window again, and looked at Bai Wenrou with a cold voice, "Why should I believe what you're saying? Because I feel safe; I don't even bring bodyguards when I go out. If there was danger, would I dare go out so openly?"

Hearing this, Bai Wenrou couldn't help but smirk, knowing the other party was starting to lower her guard, a breakthrough was about to happen.

Because, lowering the car window again and saying such obviously evasive words was clearly a sign of insecurity inside!

What's the saying? The more insecure a woman is, the more indifferent she acts! That's exactly the case with Xie Yingying now.

Because she's scared inside!

"Haha, words of evasion are most fitting for you! If you weren't insecure, without true safety, how would you say such words to me?"

Bai Wenrou's face showed a smile, and she continued speaking, "If I'm not wrong, you're going out for fun this time, doesn't matter where you go, you should be happy! Whether truly happy or pretending, you must act very joyful."

"Because you're doing it for others to see, especially for those killers of your father, letting them mistakenly think you won't pose a threat to them! As a way to protect yourself."

Xie Yingying remained silent after hearing Bai Wenrou's words.

Seeing her in this state, Bai Wenrou knew she guessed correctly. She paused briefly and continued, "Miss Xie, you're a smart woman, knowing how to disguise to protect yourself! But cleverness can backfire; you might overlook something, which is no matter how much you pretend, acting harmless, they won't believe you, because your father was Xie Wending!"

"Most importantly, you once dated Qi Feiyang, must know some of their undisclosed secrets! Knowing these secrets is the greatest threat to them; even if you know nothing, they won't believe you. Keeping you alive is the most uncertain factor..."

"So, they'll find a way to silence you! Whether with money or destruction! For things they can't control, they're best at direct elimination. Without dealing with you, they can't rest easy because this is the only way to assure them eternally."

Bai Wenrou spoke eloquently, causing Xie Yingying's face to rapidly turn pale!

She gritted her teeth, coldly huffing, "There's no such thing, everything you said is just your own wild speculations without any real evidence! I'm doing well now, undisturbed, not pretending! Why should I be scared?"

Bai Wenrou chuckled and shook her head, saying, "Miss Xie, stop pretending, your acting is really bad..."
