Chapter 113 - Exposed

“Mom, don’t worry. Since we haven’t found him yet, we have hope.” Song Jiaren sat down beside her.

Song Meiyu grabbed her hand and said, “Chuyan will be fine, right?”

Afraid that she would disappoint her in the end, Song Jiaren didn’t dare to promise her. Her silence made the hope in Song Meiyu’s eyes slowly disappear. She leaned back in her chair with a pale face. Ye Zhentian quickly took a step forward and said, “I’ll help you. I’ll send someone from the Ye family to find him immediately.”

Song Meiyu held back her emotions and said, “Thank you.”

Ye Zhentian was delighted and said, “With our relationship, there’s no need to thank me.”

Song Jiaren said directly, “We have to thank you.”

Ye Zhentian glanced at Song Jiaren and smiled bitterly. It seemed like this child hated him. He shook his head and didn’t say anything else.

Song Meiyu heaved a sigh of relief because of Song Jiaren’s words. She really didn’t know how to face Ye Zhentian, but she needed his help.

Song Jiaren glanced at Ye Zhentian. Although she didn’t hate him and was very supportive of her mother finding her happiness, it depended on his efforts.

Under Song Jiaren’s scrutinizing gaze, Ye Zhentian tried his best to stand up straight and leave a good impression on her. He knew that if he wanted to be with Song Meiyu, he definitely needed the support of this child.

Song Jiaren felt that Song Meiyu’s hand was a little cold and wanted to give Ye Zhentian a chance. “Uncle Ye, can I trouble you to take my mother home?”

Ye Zhentian was flattered that she called him “Uncle Ye”. When he heard her words, he quickly nodded and said,” Of course.” With that, he realized that he was a little too emotional. He coughed lightly and calmed down.

Song Meiyu frowned and wanted to say something, but Song Jiaren helped her up and handed her to Ye Zhentian. Song Jiaren said, “Mom, go home first. I’ll wait for news here. I promise to inform you once I have news.”

Song Meiyu and Ye Zhentian were too close, so she felt a little embarrassed and took an awkward step back.

Ye Zhentian quickly pulled her back and said, “Let’s leave first. We’ll only add to the trouble here, and she will have to take care of our emotions.”

When Song Meiyu heard him say that, she no longer insisted on staying there. Before she left, she instructed Song Jiaren to inform her as soon as there was any news. Only after Song Jiaren nodded did she relax.

After they left, Song Jiaren asked, “Officer Wu, did you find anything else besides this body?” Not understanding what she meant, Officer Wu frowned at her.

Song Jiaren paused for a moment before continuing, “For example… human limbs or internal organs.”

Officer Wu instantly reacted and asked, “Do you think this person fell down the cliff with Mr. Song Chuyan?”

Song Jiaren nodded. Since only this corpse was found, it was very likely that this corpse fell from the same car as Song Chuyan.

Or perhaps, Song Chuyan was not in the car.

Officer Wu immediately called the police who had discovered the body at the scene to inquire.

A tanned police officer walked in. His muscular figure made the room seem a little small.

Officer Wu asked, “Did you find anything else around the body when you found it?”

The officer thought about it and said, “We didn’t find anything special.” He suddenly thought of something and clapped his hands together. “We found a watch that was burned. I thought it belonged to this body, so I handed it to the coroner.”
