nZuo Weiyi felt warm inside listening to Nuannuan’s words.

nDid he specifically let Nuannuan convey his message to her?

nBut was he so busy that he did not have the time to tell her this at all?

nWhat was he doing in Country C?

n“Nuannuan, who are you calling?”

n“Ah, it’s just my friend in Country Z…”

n“We’re leaving soon, hurry up.”

n“Okay, Mother. Go down first. I’ll be there in a moment!” She smiled sweetly at the woman standing at the door. Nuannuan turned her toward the phone. “Wei Yi, I’m going out. I’ll call you soon!”

nShe did not wait for a reply from Zuo Weiyi and immediately cut off the conversation there.

nZuo Weiyi was stunned staring at the black screen.

nWhat were these two busy doing?

nIt was another sleepless night. Zuo Weiyi gradually fell asleep at around midnight.

n***

nThe next morning.

nShe was awakened by the knock on the door.

n“Miss Zuo, are you awake?”

nThe maid’s voice sounded outside the door.

nZuo Weiyi frowned while trying to open her heavy eyelids.

nShe sat up and looked in the direction of the door. “What’s the matter?”

nThe maid opened the door after hearing her response.

n“Miss Zuo, some guests are waiting for you downstairs.”

nZuo Weiyi could not help but frown after hearing that.

nGuests?

nWho would come here to find her? Was it Xingchen?

nOnly her bestie—Bei Xingchen knew that she lived here.

n“Is it a woman?” She asked in surprise while looking at the maid at the door.

nThe maid hesitated for half a second. She then pursed her lips and finally spoke, “It’s the police.”

nZuo Weiyi was shocked.

nPolice? Looking for her?

nHer mind was completely blank. Why did the police come here to look for her so early in the morning?

nShe said to the maid after a moment of contemplation, “You go down first. I will come downstairs in a moment.”

nSo, the maid left.

nAfter washing up, she put on her clothes and went downstairs.

nShe then saw four or five policemen standing in the living room as she got downstairs.

nShe was startled. She frowned as she did not understand why the policemen were looking for her.

nAunty Yu who was initially on the phone nearby could not help but put down the phone in her hand. She walked to Zuo Weiyi. “Miss Zuo, you…”

n“Are you Miss Zuo Weiyi?”

nA policeman had already walked to Zuo Weiyi and asked with a serious look before Aunty Yu had time to speak.

nZuo Weiyi nodded looking at the policeman who had suddenly come over to her side. “I am, what’s wrong?”

n

n“We are from the Public Security Bureau.” A policeman took out his ID and showed it to Zuo Weiyi. He then put it away and looked at her. “There was a criminal case. Please follow us back to assist in the investigation.”

nA criminal case?

nZuo Weiyi was startled.

n“Mr. Policeman, you can’t arrest her without any evidence,” Aunty Yu said worriedly.

nThe young master’s phone was still off. Aunty Yu could not help but worry as Zuo Weiyi was taken away.

nThe policeman glanced at Aunty Yu. He then turned to look at Zuo Weiyi and saw the scratches on the back of her hand.

n“Miss Zuo, do you know a young lady named Jiang Tingmei?”

nZuo Weiyi stunned. “Yes, what’s wrong?”

n“She died not far from this mansion yesterday evening. Her mother testified that you were the murderer who has killed her daughter. From now on, you have the right to remain silent. Everything you say will admissible as evidence in court. Please follow us back for the investigation.”
