Confusion flickered in Chen Ting's eyes: "You mean, there might be other reasons behind this?"
Jiang Yuzhu's voice was calm and rational: "I'm not sure, but my intuition tells me that this matter is not that simple. Pei Shangde's suicide may just be a facade, the real reason could be more complicated."
Jiang Yuzhu sighed heavily over the phone, aware that the complexity of the matter far exceeded her expectations.
Filled with doubt, she ultimately decided to directly confront Pei Jingchuan, hoping to get some clues from him.
Calling Pei Jingchuan, Jiang Yuzhu's tone was particularly serious: "Jingchuan, have you heard about Pei Shangde's suicide? I want to know, was this your doing?"
On the other end of the phone, Pei Jingchuan's voice was steady and indifferent: "Yuzhu, I am aware. But this was not of my doing. Pei Shangde's choice might have been because he realized his mistakes, or perhaps other reasons. This is not within my control."
