Jun Hua sighed.
âItâs not that I donât want to help, but itâs not up to me anymore.â He shook his head. âI received a call from the capital before Ji Shiting came. Even the higher-ups were alerted about this case.â
Ling Yutongâs eyes widened. âIs it that serious?â
âWhat do you think?â Jun Hua was confused. âHowever, this case is spreading too fast. I feel that things arenât that simple...â
...
Ji Shiting drove back to the manor after leaving the government office. He had received a call from his grandpa before he met Jun Hua.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xie Siqi was dead, and Ye Shengge was behind it.
Grandpa Ji found out both news at the same time, including the public sentiment on the Internet.
Thus, Grandpa Ji said, âItâs lucky you two have separated. Otherwise, you mightâve been the one on the news.â
Grandpa Ji was both relieved and sad. For Xie Siqi and for Ye Shengge.
âShengge didnât kill her. Sheâs innocent,â Ji Shiting loosened his tie and said. âSheâs much better now. Her second personality isnât as cruel and bloodthirsty as before. She didnât kill Xie Siqi.â
Grandpa Ji was shocked. âHow did you know?â
âBecause I met Shengge this evening. I was there when the police came to arrest her.â He then added, âShe told me herself. I believe her.â
âYou...â Grandpa Jiâs expression changed.â Why are you still meeting her? â
âThatâs not the point. The point is, how can I get her out?â Ji Shiting swallowed hard and said. âShe canât stay in detention. That environment isnât suitable for her body.â
âShiting, you donât know what youâre talking about! Why are you still meeting her? Have you been meeting her in private ever since she came back and hiding it from me?â Grandpa Ji got more and more scared. âHow do you know that Siqiâs death has nothing to do with her? Of course, she refuses to admit what her second personality did, but that doesnât mean sheâs innocent! I think she should be treated in the mental facility so that she doesnât hurt the innocent!â
âGrandpa.â Ji Shitingâs voice was still calm, but under that calmness was pain and repression. âIf this was really done by the second personality, she wonât deny it. Just like how she would have left me so decisively. If she really could hurt the innocent, she wouldâve locked herself up first.â
Grandpa Ji was dazed and speechless. He didnât have the confidence to question Ye Shenggeâs character anymore.
âMost importantly...â Ji Shitingâs voice became hoarse.â Sheâs pregnant. â
Grandpa Ji pretended not to understand and asked, âWhat?!â
âShengge is pregnant, and the child is mine,â Ji Shiting said. âItâs been a month and a half. I have a diagnosis here. Do you want to read it?â
Grandpa Ji felt as if he had been struck by lightning. After a while, he found his voice and said, âReally? Are... Are you lying to me?â
âI wouldnât be in such a hurry otherwise.â Ji Shiting clenched his fists. âHer pregnancy reaction is very serious, and sheâs very weak. Although the police donât dare use any intense methods on her, if anything happens...â
