Qiu Ya was still in the wedding dress shop when she received a phone call.
"Miss Qiu Ya, something terrible has happened! The people we arranged have failed and been arrested by the police."
"What? You're all utterly useless. You can't even handle a weak woman? What use are you?"
"Miss Qiu Ya, you can't say that. Our people have been arrested, and they'll probably implicate you. You should think about what to do."
"What do you mean, 'what to do'? Give his family 1 million yuan and forbid them from revealing my identity. If they dare to reveal my identity, let them commit suicide."
Qiu Ya finished speaking coldly, as if a life was nothing more than an insignificant thing in her eyes.
With her marriage imminent, she absolutely could not afford to have any problems at this crucial juncture.
She wanted to nip all threats in the bud.
...
On the other side...
The police are interrogating the perpetrators at the station.
"Who instructed you to kill Song Ning?"
The perpetrator remained silent, and the on-site interrogation was temporarily interrupted.
"Ten-minute break."
During his break, a police auxiliary officer came up to him, handed him water, and whispered something to him.
[Take the blame for yourself, and give your family 1 million.]
The thugs were stunned when they heard this.
After some thought, the perpetrator changed his story during the next interrogation.
"It was all my own doing, no one instructed me... I'm a hater of Song Ning, I just don't like him..."
Huo Beian had been watching the surveillance footage in the interrogation room. He was puzzled when he saw that the criminals refused to admit that they were the masterminds.
His intuition told him that this matter was absolutely inseparable from Qiu Ya.
However, the perpetrator denied it.
He was completely baffled.
He then said to the staff, "Could I watch the playback again?"
So the police reviewed the surveillance footage from the interrogation room and showed it to him.
Huo Beian then noticed that one of the auxiliary police officers seemed to have exchanged a few words with the criminal while giving him water.
"Stop here and slow down."
The police officers noticed the anomaly in this segment of the surveillance footage and slowed it down to analyze it frame by frame. Sure enough, they discovered that the auxiliary police officer made verbal and physical movements when approaching the assailant.
"What's Zhao Qiang doing? Call him over here."
The criminal investigation captain immediately called him over.
After Zhao Qiang arrived, he asked, "Captain, what do you want to see me about?"
The captain immediately turned on that surveillance footage and questioned him, "What did you just say to the criminal?"
Zhao Qiang was immediately terrified. "Captain, I didn't say anything."
"Didn't say anything? Then I'll interrogate them later. If the thugs implicate you, don't blame me for being ruthless."
After saying that, the criminal investigation captain was about to leave.
Zhao Qiang immediately trembled with fear, "Captain, I'll confess."
Soon, the captain began questioning Zhao Qiang. What he found out was shocking: Zhao Qiang was a distant relative of Qiu Ya, and over the years he had helped the Qiu family deal with many messes.
There was a financial fraud case that involved the Qiu family, but because of insufficient evidence, the only witness later recanted his testimony, which prevented the Qiu family from being brought to justice.
Looking back now, it turns out there was a mole within the police station all along.
"Zhao Qiang, as an auxiliary police officer, you knowingly broke the law and protected criminals. Considering that you confessed voluntarily, you will be treated leniently."
"Thank you, Captain." Zhao Qiang said with a long face, clearly regretting his actions.
Instead, Huo Beian advised, "Captain, in my opinion, Zhao Qiang is still useful. Why don't we hold off on dealing with him for now and let him redeem himself through meritorious service?"
Do you have any plans?
Huo Beian immediately whispered his thoughts in the captain's ear.
The captain praised it repeatedly, saying, "Great idea!"
...
After finishing his business at the police station, Huo Beian hurried back to Song Ning's house.
"Well? Did you get the answer? Who was it?"
"It's highly likely that Qiu Ya sent them. But the perpetrators deny it."
Huo Beian sighed.
"Then what should we do?"
Song Ning was somewhat indignant, "Are we just going to let her get away with it?"
"No, don't worry, honey. She'll be brought to justice soon."
Huo Beian quickly stepped forward and hugged her tightly. "Wife, give me a little more time. I will handle everything and clear away all obstacles. Then we can be together forever."
"Okay. Honey, I believe you."
Huo Beian lowered his head and kissed her lips, and Song Ning also wrapped her arms around his neck in response.
The two lingered, feeling a deep longing for each other's warmth.
"Alright, honey. To avoid alerting them, I'll announce that you're injured and hospitalized for a while. Please cooperate with me."
Although Song Ning didn't know what he was up to, she still agreed.
...
After Huo Beian returned to the Lian family's apartment, Qiu Ya pretended not to know anything and went up to him to ask, "Brother Sicheng, where did you go when you were trying on wedding dresses? I couldn't find you anywhere."
"Song Ning had an accident, I went to check on her."
"What? What happened to her?"
"She was stabbed in the neck by a thug and is currently in the hospital receiving emergency treatment." As he said this, Huo Beian deliberately made his eyes red.
Qiu Ya was shocked when she heard this. She thought to herself, "Didn't that thug fail to assassinate her? Could he have hurt her?"
That's great.
That little bitch is incredibly lucky to still be alive.
But she said nonchalantly, "Which hospital is she in? Let's go see her sometime. After all, she's your ex-girlfriend."
"At Friendship Hospital. Qiu Ya, you're so generous? You really didn't know?"
"Of course I didn't know. Look at what you're saying. Brother Sicheng, you don't suspect me, do you? I'm not that bad."
