The sudden turn of events caught everyone by surprise.
Lin Yan no longer looked at the lackey on the ground. He held Ye Zi in his arms and turned around to return to the apartment. In the elevator, Lin Yan was worried that the little girl would catch a cold. Just now, he had carefully told her not to come out, but she still followed him out.
Why was she so disobedient?
But on second thought, if she was obedient, then she wouldn't be his little girl.
Back at Lin Yan's home, he wrapped Ye Zi tightly in a large bath towel. She looked like the Virgin Mary. To ensure that Ye Zi wouldn't catch a cold, Lin Yan filled the bathtub and pushed Ye Zi into the bathroom.
He really wanted to take a bath with her, but...
Lin Yan wiped the rain off his body with a bath towel and walked into the kitchen. He made a ginger cola to drive Ye Zi away from the cold.
After a while, he didn't see Ye Zi coming out of the bathroom. Lin Yan had a feeling that he wanted to see what was going on. His heart was itching, especially when he remembered what Ye Zi said in the heavy rain, "I want to be with you." His lips couldn't help but curl up.
This little girl, she's always calling me...
"What are you laughing at?" Ye Zi frowned and walked out of the bathroom.
Lin Yan had prepared a set of clothes for her. Because his pants were too big, Ye Zi only wore a white shirt. Lin Yan's figure was tall and straight. The white shirt reached Ye Zi's thighs and the neckline was a little big, revealing her beautiful collarbone. She stared at Lin Yan in a daze. She couldn't understand why he was still laughing after what had just happened.
Lin Yan's eyes were fixed on Ye Zi's beautiful collarbone and fair and slender legs. He couldn't take his eyes off her.
Ye Zi noticed Lin Yan's burning gaze. She blushed slightly and tugged at the collar of her shirt. It would have been better if she didn't tug at it, but now that she tugged at it, her collar revealed a patch of snow-white skin.
Lin Yan frowned. Was his little girl challenging his patience?
If he continued to watch, Lin Yan couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't directly …
"It's getting late. Rest early."
Lin Yan narrowed his eyes and avoided looking at Ye Zi. He believed that he had a high level of self-control, but when it came to Ye Zi, his ability to control himself was close to zero.
Lin Yan watched as Ye Zi walked into the bedroom. His expression was solemn, as if he was shrouded in a thick halo. He quickly walked into the bathroom. In a flash, the sound of running water could be heard. Lin Yan took a cold shower to reduce the heat in his body.
That night, Ye Zi didn't sleep well. Nightmares came one after another. It wasn't until early in the morning that Ye Zi suddenly woke up from her nightmare. She suddenly realized that the bedsheets under her body were drenched in her sweat.
When she walked out of the bedroom, Jian Xia and Lin Yan were sitting in front of the dining table. Their movements were strangely similar, elegant and distant. When they heard Ye Zi's footsteps, they looked at her at the same time.
"You didn't sleep well last night, did you?" Lin Yan looked at Ye Zi's Panda eyes and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her.
Ye Zi nodded, "I kept dreaming last night. I have a headache now."
Jian Xia stood up and walked over to Ye Zi. She gently touched Ye Zi's forehead and couldn't help but frown, "You have a fever!"
Ye Zi smiled faintly, "It's okay. You'll be fine after taking two pills."
"I'm sorry." Jian Xia bowed her head deeply, as if she was the one who had done wrong last night.
Ye Zi gently patted Jian Xia's shoulder and revealed a big, sweet smile, "Don't take it to heart. This has nothing to do with you. You're also a victim, aren't you? What we need to do now is to point our guns at a common enemy."
The more she said this, the more apologetic Jian Xia felt. If she hadn't stayed at Ye Zi's house last night, she and Lin Yan wouldn't have...
Jian Xia pursed her lips, looking like she wanted to say something but stopped herself.
But Ye Zi didn't mind. She looked at the breakfast that Lin Yan had prepared on the dining table. She quickly walked forward and sat beside Lin Yan. She picked up a sandwich and took a bite, "Mmm... Mr. Lin, your culinary skills are getting better and better. It's worthy of praise."
She didn't need to say much, nor did she need to give a long speech to comfort Jian Xia. Ye Zi's actions made Jian Xia feel at ease.
Jian Xia smiled. Her smile was back to normal, and it was indescribably beautiful.
She returned to her seat and continued to eat her breakfast. "Lin Yan, I finally understand why you like her so much."
Lin Yan glanced sideways at Ye Zi. His lips curved into a faint smile, and he lowered his head to eat the breakfast in front of him.
"Ding dong."
The doorbell suddenly rang.
Lin Yan displayed his gentlemanly demeanor and got up to open the door.
The door opened slowly, and a familiar face entered Lin Yan's eyes — Chen Mo.
"Chief Chen Dui?!" Lin Yan frowned. He was deeply surprised by Chen Mo's arrival.
Chen Mo didn't smile. He took out a photo from his pocket and asked Lin Yan, "Mr. Lin, do you know this person?"
Lin Yan knew the man in the photo. It was the thief who had broken into his house last night!
Lin Yan frowned, and there was a questioning look in his eyes. Chen Mo's thin lips moved slightly, and he said in a cold voice, "He died last night. According to the police's Sky Eye, Mr. Lin was the last person to see him last night. Moreover, Mr. Lin had an argument with him at that time. Can you explain the situation at that time? "
"There's nothing to explain," Lin Yan handed the photo back to Chen Mo and said indifferently, "It's just a thief."
"A thief?" Chen Mo frowned, and there was a more and more interrogative look in his eyes. "If it's just a thief, why did you and him …"
"Brother Chen Mo."
Before Chen Mo could finish his words, Ye Zi poked her head out from behind Lin Yan.
Chen Mo frowned. "Why are you here?"
Ye Zi said, "I stayed here last night."
"Live here?!" Chen Mo furrowed his brows.
What did she mean by staying here?
Was she living with Lin Yan?
Or …
Chen Mo glanced at Ye Zi. When he saw that there was another woman in the living room, he knew that he might have misunderstood.
He was just about to speak when Ye Zi took the photo from his hand. She looked at the photo with a frown and asked doubtfully, "Isn't this the person from last night?!"
"You've seen him too?"
Chen Mo frowned even more. From the surveillance video of the Sky Eye, the only person who had physical contact with him at that time was Lin Yan.
Ye Zi nodded and said, "Yes, last night, this person sneaked into Lin Yan's house and was discovered by Lin Yan. We chased him outside the community, and Lin Yan fought with him."
Rather than a fight, it was better to say that it was Lin Yan's suppression attack.
Ye Zi asked, "What happened?"
Chen Mo said in a low voice, "We received a call from the police this morning. His body was found near Binhu. Through the Sky Eye, we found …"
"Last night …" Ye Zi bit her lip.
Could it be that Lin Yan was too ruthless last night and killed him?
But after thinking about it, it didn't seem right. Because last night, when Ye Zi and Lin Yan returned home, he was still alive. Moreover, the distance between Binhu and the apartment was very far. If he was seriously injured at that time, he definitely wouldn't have walked so far.
Moreover, Ye Zi remembered that Lin Yan had called Shen Wanjun.
"His death has nothing to do with Lin Yan," Ye Zi said, her voice firm and firm.
"According to the forensic report, the cause of death of the male victim was a rib fracture combined with lung injury, resulting in hemopneumothorax. The rib pierced through the large blood vessels in the lung tissue, causing a large amount of blood loss and dying. And the police found from the surveillance cameras that Lin Yan's attacks landed on his rib every time."
Chen Mo narrowed his eyes and glanced at Lin Yan coldly. He said in a low voice, "So, the police have the right to suspect that his death is related to Lin Yan."
As he spoke, he took out the handcuffs from his waist. After thinking about it, with Ye Zi around, Chen Mo still didn't handcuff Lin Yan. "Mr. Lin, please come with me."
Lin Yan curled his lips and nodded slightly. "Okay."
"Lin Yan!" Ye Zi called out. "I'll go with you."
"You have a slight fever. It's better for you to stay at home." Lin Yan reminded Ye Zi.
Ye Zi pursed her lips and shook her head slightly.
Lin Yan's smile became wider and he gave Ye Zi a reassuring look. He lifted Ye Zi's chin and gently kissed her pink lips. He said softly, "Don't worry. With Qin Chen around, I'll be fine."
As he spoke, Lin Yan turned his gaze to Jian Xia. "You and Ye Zi stay here. I'll send someone to protect you."
In a flash, he followed Chen Mo out of the house.
As soon as Lin Yan walked out, Ye Zi took out her phone and dialed Qin Chen's number. After telling Qin Chen what had happened, Qin Chen hung up the phone.
Ye Zi gripped her phone tightly and prayed silently in her heart. She hoped that Lin Yan would be fine.
"Xiaozi, don't worry. With Qin Chen around, Lin Yan will be fine." Jian Xia sat next to Ye Zi and comforted her softly.
Ye Zi pursed her lips and stared at Jian Xia. She also hoped that nothing would happen to Lin Yan, but...
According to the evidence, Lin Yan was still the most suspicious. Although Lin Yan did not deliberately commit murder, if it was manslaughter, it would constitute negligence causing death. According to Article 233 of the Criminal Law, he would be sentenced to three to seven years in prison.
This was the last thing Ye Zi wanted to see. Right now, her heart was tied to Qin Chen.
At the Municipal Crime Squad.
Lin Yan sat in the interrogation room. His expression was still calm and cold. He closed his eyes and tapped his fair and long fingers on the interrogation table rhythmically.
"Creak..."
The door to the interrogation room suddenly opened. Chen Mo, dressed in a police uniform, walked into the room. Wonderful! (
