âYiling, is he telling me the truth?â Zhai Yunsheng asked as he looked at Jian Yiling.
A pair of deep and dark eyes gazed at her.
Jian Yilingâs hand that was gripped onto Zhai Yunshengâs waist tightened.
âFake⦠Fakeâ¦â
Her voice was as quiet as a mosquitoâs buzz.
âThen tell me, what is he here for?â
âHe⦠The compassâ¦â
Jian Yiling whispered as she nervously hugged Zhai Yunsheng.
She was anxious.
âHe wants the Goodman family compass?â Zhai Yunsheng asked Jian Yiling. He roughly understood her words.
Jian Yiling nodded as she continued to lean against Zhai Yunshengâs chest. As she was nodding, she bumped Zhai Yunshengâs chest a few times with her head.
Upon receiving this response, Zhai Yunshengâs eyes darkened when he looked at the middle-aged man again.
The smile on the manâs face became even more obvious as he said: âYour girl is quite capable. When her boyfriend isnât accompanying her, she calmly speaks to me. Sheâs not nervous at all. However, when youâre next to her, she just nestles into your arms and is unwilling to leave you. Itâs as though sheâs a frightened lamb.â
âSheâs my woman. I feel honored for her to rely on me,â Zhai Yunsheng responded in a cold voice. âAs for you, I think you should leave with Superintendent Ruan and the others.â
âA Sheng, youâre hurting your uncleâs heart. When you were young, I even hugged you,â the man said.
Jian Yilingâs grip on Zhai Yunsheng tightened again.
It hurt much more to be deceived by someone you know than to be deceived by a stranger.
When he sensed Jian Yilingâs anxiousness, Zhai Yunsheng reached out to pat her on the back. He said: âDonât worry. He canât affect me.â
Although he did not know what Mr. Mu did to make Jian Yiling anxious, he assumed it was something related to himself.
Zhai Yunsheng knew Jian Yiling quite well. He knew that her mood would only change when it involved her loved ones.
At this moment, Superintendent Ruan finally arrived.
He and his subordinates surrounded Mr. Mu to ensure that he could not get away.
âMr. Mu, you canât escape from us. As youâre suspected of murdering Zhai Bochen, weâre here to arrest you,â Superintendent Ruan said as he glared at the man viciously.
This was the murderer that their team had been chasing for nearly twenty years.
Upon hearing Superintendent Ruanâs words, Zhai Yunshengâs body froze.
The murderer⦠Of his fatherâ¦
In an instant, a chill rose from the bottom of his feet. It appeared as though the chaos in front of him had disappeared.
Instead, the ground surrounding him was flowing with blood. The blood slowly seeped into his shoes.
The deadly silence⦠He couldnât hear anyoneâs voice.
Zhai Yunsheng appeared to have withdrawn himself from the world. He was immersed in his memories.
âA Sheng.â
A soft voice called out.
Zhai Yunshengâs thoughts were pulled back by this voice.
He lowered his head to look at the girl in his arms.
There was no blood.
âIâm alright,â Zhai Yunsheng said as he gently patted Jian Yilingâs back.
Mr. Mu laughed as he asked: âPolice officer, you must be joking. Why should I run away? I am a good citizen.â
âYou just admitted that youâre the murderer of Zhai Bochen!â Superintendent Ruan snarled as he looked at Mr. Mu. He had the urge to tear off the other personâs mouth!
How dare he smile? He was a murderer!
âI was joking around with Yiling. Iâm friends with A Shengâs parents. Naturally, I know sheâs A Shengâs fiancee.. I just wanted to tease her,â the man explained.
