He finally understood that Gu Zhixing wasn't there to interrogate him at all!
Gu Zhixing simply wanted to torment him, and wanted to get rid of him in the shortest amount of time!
As for the answers to those questions, he didn't really care!
"Third question." Gu Zhixing suddenly lifted Wang Mian's shirt, a red-hot iron rod hovering over his abdomen. "Did you hide the ledger of embezzlement? Where did you hide it?"
A smart person will always keep something in reserve, something that can keep their allies in check, and the ledger is the best evidence.
He believed that Wang Mian would be no exception.
Wang Mian suddenly began to struggle wildly, the chains rattling loudly, "How could you...it's impossible...!"
"Did I guess right?" The iron rod gently traced the scar, the charred flesh curling up like a flower. "That saves trouble."

Shen Jintang glanced at him indifferently without saying a word, but the coldness in her eyes faded slightly, like ice and snow gradually melting under the warm spring sun.
Gu Zhixing's smile deepened, and he turned to Xing Hui and instructed, "Bring paper and pen, and have him write down everything he knows."
Xing Hui glanced at Shen Jintang, and seeing her nod slightly, she turned around to get it.
