Chapter 457 A Piece of Cake



Over the years, Duan Ze has worked with the police station on many major cases, and he has encountered people like Nan Xing before.

No one could hide it as well as Nanxing. Duan Ze's gaze was complicated, but deep in his eyes, there was also a hint of hatred.

Nanxing, you really shouldn't even think about what's going on between them.

Nanxing got into the car. There were two people when they came, but only Nanxing left. However, she showed no discomfort and was not worried at all that Hu Lan would say anything in the interrogation room.

Nanxing glanced at him in the rearview mirror and understood that Duan Ze's hatred for her could never be erased. Since things had come to this, she gave up on trying to repair their relationship.

She felt apologetic about what happened to Shen Niannian, because although Duan Ze was unaware of it all these years, he had indeed been...

Her selfless protection back then helped her a great deal.

So she didn't actually make a move against Shen Niannian, but the ending couldn't be changed.

Even if she didn't do it, they would still think she did it, wouldn't they?

It's a miracle that Shen Niannian survived.

Thinking about this, Nanxing thought about today's case. It was ridiculous, she couldn't understand why Luo Qingyuan was always able to escape again and again.

Meanwhile, Duan Ye was driving Luo Qingyuan home. The couple remained unusually silent throughout the journey.

In fact, sometimes, if they weren't so concerned about their status, there would be many ways to deal with these people. But they just have to abide by the rules of this world, and living such a timid and fearful life is not easy.

The further we investigated these matters, the more alarming it became.

If Duan Ye initially harbored resentment towards Luo Qingyuan's departure, he is now gradually realizing why she left so decisively.

If I had stayed here, I probably would have been dead already.

Because he is Duan Ye, a member of the Duan family, he is destined to be subject to many constraints.

Luo Qingyuan glanced at him and said, "Hu Lan is far too dangerous. Although several groups have begun to investigate her identity, it's best if you don't meet with her until the results are in."

"And it's a bit strange that you were so distracted in front of so many people today. You're usually so vigilant, this shouldn't be the case."

Luo Qingyuan even began to suspect that they had put something on Duan Ye.

Duan Ye, however, said something completely unrelated to the topic: "Starting today, you should stay at home for the time being. You can handle company matters remotely, or have the board members come to your home to report. Also, take good care of your foot."

"As for the children, I pick them up and drop them off at school every day."

"On weekends, I'll just stay home and play with the kids."

"Until...Nanxing was brought to justice."

Actually, Duan Ye was a little uneasy about saying this, because he knew that Luo Qingyuan didn't really like being restrained.

To his surprise, Luo Qingyuan readily agreed, saying, "Okay."

Duan Ye parked the car on the side of the road.

My hands, gripping the steering wheel, trembled slightly.

"When I went to investigate Ye Nuan's life today, I found that her death seemed to have been premeditated. Maybe...maybe she shouldn't have ended up like this."

"She was just an ordinary girl. Although she didn't have a very happy childhood, she told me many times that she just wanted to go to university, become a teacher after graduation, and live a peaceful and stable life with me."

"If—and I mean if—she hadn't met me, she wouldn't have been used by Nanxing, nor by the Jiang family. She could have lived the life she wanted simply by graduating..."

"It's as if all her suffering started from the moment she met me."

Duan Ye choked up as he spoke, "When I heard the gunshots today, and went downstairs to see the car in such a state, I was thinking, is it... you too..."

However, at that very moment, Luo Qingyuan unbuckled her seatbelt, leaned over, and hugged him.

"But none of this was your intention. When she broke free from you, you wanted to save her, didn't you?"

Duan Ye turned around and hugged her slender waist: "I was thinking of you..."

"I'm sorry, when she begged me, I thought about forgiving her."

"I was thinking that as long as the Jiang family no longer had anyone threatening her, and she could go back to school to finish her studies, I could help her wherever she went in the future, as long as she didn't bother me anymore..."

"But she still jumped off the building."

"Qingyuan, I'm a little tired, and I'm also afraid of people like Nanxing."

He even began to regret giving such sincere feelings to this person when he was young.

Luo Qingyuan hugged him and gently patted his back.

"I don't know what to do anymore. She seems to be everywhere... She's infiltrating my life step by step. She's like a demon, wantonly hurting the people around me..."

Luo Qingyuan listened quietly to Duan Ye's somewhat incoherent words.

Duan Ye closed his eyes, looking somewhat tired.

She slowly said, "If you don't know what to do, just keep moving forward for now and don't worry about anything else."

There are too many people in this world who are not in control of their own lives.

"Ah Ye, you are good. All of this tragedy stems from Nan Xing."

"Trust me, and trust your brother and sister-in-law Liang Mo. The action team has only been established for a few days. All of this takes time."

"Give yourself some time, and give everyone who is working hard some time too."
