"Wh-what?!" Andrew Lim couldn't believe his ears and asked again in a trembling voice.
Chen Mo was used to this kind of situation. He said with a cold expression, "The deceased is your wife — Mu Tianjiao."
Andrew Lim suddenly felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His body went limp and he fainted in Yao Anmian's arms.
"Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin …"
Ye Zi and Yao Anmian exclaimed at the same time. With Chen Mo's help, the two of them supported Andrew Lim into the Lin family's villa.
The exquisite decoration style and European-style furniture all showed the owner's taste. Chen Mo and Yao Anmian helped Andrew Lim lie down on the sofa.
Chen Mo pressed hard on Andrew Lim's philtrum. He took a deep breath and suddenly opened his eyes.
In an instant, tears gushed out, and his throat felt as if a piece of burning charcoal had been stuffed into it. A hoarse voice spilled out from between Andrew Lim's lips and teeth. "Officer, what the hell is going on? How could my wife …"
His emotions were still on the verge of breaking down. He raised his hand to cover his face before he could finish his sentence. His body couldn't stop trembling.
Covering one's face with both hands meant that the person involved didn't want to see what was happening in front of them. It was the body's instinctive self-protection mechanism.
Ye Zi had learned a lot about micro-expressions from her father.
She could tell at a glance that the tall man in front of her couldn't accept the fact that his wife had been killed.
Suddenly, Lin Ande jumped up and grabbed Chen Mo's collar. His voice was close to a roar, "Why won't you believe me? There have always been people who wanted to harm me and my wife. If you could believe me, my wife wouldn't have, wouldn't have …"
His voice was choked, and it was obvious that he couldn't continue. The hand that was grabbing Chen Mo's collar gradually loosened. Finally, his whole body was like a deflated balloon as he weakly collapsed on the sofa.
Ye Zi didn't know how things developed to the current situation. Originally, she thought that Andrew Lim and his wife had offended someone and were being retaliated against. Now, it seemed that things had risen to another level.
As her father's successor, how could Ye Zi give up this opportunity?
Moreover, even if there was nothing else, he had to investigate the truth of the matter for the twenty thousand yuan reward.
Chen Mo suddenly pulled Ye Zi's arm, "You can't interfere in this matter, get out."
"Brother Chen Mo, I've accepted their money, it's not good for me to not work." Ye Zi blinked and glanced at Andrew Lim.
Chen Mo muttered to himself, "This is a murder case, not a child's play."
"Brother Chen Mo …"
"Brother-in-law!"
Just as Ye Zi was about to speak, she suddenly heard a female voice behind her. She turned around and saw a young girl wearing a white T-shirt and a blue denim skirt. The backpack in her hands fell to the ground as she stood there dumbstruck.
"Wanqing, your sister, she …"
Fang Wan Qing's tears fell like rain as she quickly ran towards Andrew Lim and burst into tears, "What the police said is true, how could my sister …"
She turned her head to look at Chen Mo, "Officer, who killed my sister? She was so kind … "
"Are you the victim's sister?" Chen Mo asked with a frown.
Fang Wan Qing nodded and sobbed, "I am, I just met my sister, and she … I want to see my sister."
Ye Zi frowned, her gaze sweeping across Fang Wan Qing's body for a moment, and then she looked at Andrew Lim. Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something and raised her hand to slap her forehead.
No wonder when Brother Chen Mo said that the victim's name was Mu Tianjiao, she felt that it was very familiar. Now, she finally remembered.
Wasn't Mu Tianjiao the heroine of the biggest inheritance case in Binhai City last year?!
Ye Zi reached out and tugged at Chen Mo's sleeve. Chen Mo turned to look at Ye Zi and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Is the victim, Mu Tianjiao, the president of the Muting Group?" Ye Zi lowered her voice and asked.
Chen Mo nodded, "Yes, she is …"
His face darkened, and he glanced at Ye Zi coldly, "Why are you still here?"
Ye Zi curled her lips and shook Chen Mo's hand back and forth, "Brother Chen Mo, let me stay, okay? Maybe I can help you."
"No." Chen Mo refused, "Go back to your detective agency and don't bother with this case."
"But …"
"No buts. If you don't leave, I'll send someone to send you back." Chen Mo's tone was unquestionable.
Ye Zi curled her lips helplessly. She knew Chen Mo's temper. If she really insisted on staying, Chen Mo would definitely send someone to escort her back to the detective agency. "Okay, I'll go back now."
Chen Mo waved his hand, "Go."
Ye Zi narrowed her eyes and left the Lin's Villa dejectedly.
Passing through the crowd of onlookers, Ye Zi lowered her head and kept thinking. She didn't notice that there was a person standing in front of her.
She touched her pointed chin and frowned. She thought to herself, "Who on earth wants to deal with this couple?"
"Ouch!"
Ye Zi didn't pay attention to the man in front of her and bumped into his chest. She wasn't paying attention and stepped on a cobblestone, falling on her butt.
A tall figure came over to Ye Zi. Ye Zi looked up and couldn't help but be startled, "Lin Yan, why are you here?!"
Lin Yan's thin lips opened slightly, and he said in a faint voice, "Qinglan Bay Villa is the property of the Lin Group. I also have a villa here. Why can't I be here?"
Ye Zi curled her lips. Was he showing off his wealth to her?
"I know you're rich, but you don't have to talk about it all the time." Ye Zi stood up and dusted off the dust on her body.
Lin Yan was speechless. Wasn't she the one asking why he was here?
How did it become him showing off his wealth?
He couldn't understand what was going on in this little girl's little head.
Ye Zi glared at Lin Yan angrily. He just said that Qinglan Bay Villa District was the property of the Lin Group, and this Mu Tianjiao was a rich man in the city. They should know each other.
"Hehe." Ye Zi smiled and leaned in front of Lin Yan. She asked softly, "Do you know the deceased Mu Tianjiao?"
Lin Yan heard this and frowned slightly. He glanced at the Lin's villa with his sharp eyes and asked lightly, "Does this case also have something to do with you?"
Ye Zi nodded noncommittally. "I took this case."
Lin Yan took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it and put it between his thin lips. He took a deep breath and exhaled a thick smoke ring.
"Cough cough …" Ye Zi choked and coughed. She waved her hand to disperse the smoke in front of her. "Do you know Mu Tianjiao or not?"
"It has nothing to do with you." Lin Yan paced back and forth as he walked towards his villa.
Ye Zi glanced at him and turned to Yao Anmian. "You go back first. I'll get some clues."
"Boss, didn't Brother Chen Mo say that we don't have to deal with this case? Why do you still …"
Ye Zi raised her hand and flicked Yao Anmian's forehead. "Are you stupid? If we don't participate, won't we have to return the reward?"
After that, she followed behind Lin Yan.
Yao Anmian shook his head. "You're too greedy for money."
Ye Zi followed behind Lin Yan. Naturally, none of the Lin family's bodyguards dared to stop her. Moreover, this lady was the only woman that their boss had brought home. They couldn't wait to curry favor with her.
Lin Yan felt that someone was following him. He suddenly turned around and saw Ye Zi behind him. He couldn't help but frown and ask, "Why are you following me?"
Ye Zi blinked her clear eyes and said with a smile, "I want to know more about Mu Tianjiao."
"That's someone else's business. I have no comment."
Listening to the meaning behind Lin Yan's words, it was obvious that he knew something.
Ye Zi smiled awkwardly and said, "Tell me about it."
"No comment."
It was those four words again. Ye Zi curled her lips and walked past Lin Yan. She pushed open the door of the villa and walked into Lin Yan's home.
Lin Yan stood where he was and frowned. Cheng Chuan, this girl …
"You're back."
Qin Chen heard the footsteps and thought that Lin Yan had returned. He poked his head out of the kitchen and saw a woman sitting on the sofa with her back to him.
Qin Chen raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, revealing an incredulous expression.
"Damn." He couldn't help but curse. It seemed that Lin Yan, this iceberg, had finally become enlightened. He even brought a woman home.
However, why did this woman look so familiar?
Qin Chen suddenly widened his eyes. How could it be her!?
He seemed to have seen the biggest gossip in the world. With a wicked smile on his face, he floated from the kitchen to Lin Yan's side and elbowed Lin Yan. "You …"
Lin Yan looked at him and hooked his thumbs. His face darkened again. It was already difficult for him to maintain a smile, and the words' strangers do not approach 'were written on his face. "Don't misunderstand, she and I …"
"I didn't get you wrong." Qin Chen raised his eyebrows and chuckled. "You think too much."
After that, Qin Chen quickly walked to Ye Zi's side and looked her up and down.
"What are you looking at?" Ye Zi snorted. "Believe it or not, I'll dig out your eyes and step on them."
Qin Chen felt deflated and his lips twitched. "Sister-in-law, how did I offend you? Why do you …"
"I'm not your sister-in-law."
"She's not your sister-in-law."
Lin Yan and Ye Zi said in unison.
Qin Chen pointed at Lin Yan with one hand and pointed at Ye Zi with the other. "You … really have telepathy."
"Who has telepathy with her?"
"Who has telepathy with him?"
The two of them said in unison again.
Qin Chen seemed to have discovered the adultery. The wicked smile on his face became more and more obvious. He raised his eyebrows and chuckled. "You really have a tacit understanding."
"Only a ghost can have a tacit understanding with him."
"Only a ghost can have a tacit understanding with her."
Ye Zi was also stunned for a moment and looked at Lin Yan with a frown.
"Why did you imitate me?"
"Why did you imitate me?"
"I didn't."
