"Could it be a case of smoke and mirrors to mislead us from suspecting Old Mai? Or perhaps she already discovered the secret on my phone, and is saying all this deliberately to lead us off the scent?"
"We can't rule out this possibility, but from what I feel, she genuinely seems unaware of the surveillance device on your phone."
Yu Minglang trusted his intuition.
"That's strange then, aside from Old Mai, I haven't offended anyone recently. Who would instruct her to monitor me—hey, why are you looking at me like that?"
Yu Minglang was eyeing Xiao Qian with a classic 'jealous king's gaze', giving her the creeps.
"Lately, you haven't attracted any frivolous flirtations, right? Such as inadvertently infatuating someone again?"
"What are you talking about? When have I ever got involved with frivolous flirtations!"
"You have, many times!"
"It's only Old Mai! Did you see how he was standing there like a dumb calf earlier? Was that my fault?"
