Lu Yan said with some regret, "He shot himself and then set himself on fire. When we arrived, many paintings and photos in the room had been burned, but even what was left was enough to convict him."
In fact, Lu Yan had a vague feeling that something was wrong, and he felt that he had overlooked something. He frowned.
Xia Yixin managed to get some sleep.
Lu Yanke really hadn't slept for almost 24 hours.
The usually energetic man now has a bit of stubble and looks slightly tired.
It's still over an hour away from the airport.
Looking at the slightly tired Lu Yan, Xia Yixin was filled with worry and heartache. She knew that he had participated in the program because of her, and after experiencing so many things, he had investigated for so long because he was afraid that there was a deeper danger hidden.
Putting everything else aside, this at least shows that this matter has nothing to do with K.
She reached out and pulled him towards her. "There's still an hour left, why don't you take a nap?"
Her actions put him at ease, and he naturally pulled her into his arms in return.
He closed his eyes and sighed, "This is how I charge my phone."
The unusual calm was so intense that even the driver unconsciously slowed down; all he needed to do was get the person to safety before the plane took off.
Xia Yixin leaned against him, listening to his steady heartbeat, and spoke her heart.
“Lu Yan, you’re already very good. You’re human, not a god. You don’t have to be perfect in everything. I will try my best to protect myself, and so will you. Go home and sleep well later. Let’s put things aside for now.”
Her tone was like comforting an impatient child.
For Lu Yan, this was especially beneficial.
"I really regret letting you enter the entertainment industry. I should have kept you at home for a few years first."
Xia Yixin chuckled. According to her filming schedule, it would take her more than a month to return.
But perhaps she could do it a little earlier?
It wasn't until she boarded the plane that Xia Yixin realized she seemed to have forgotten to tell Lu Yan about Zhao Jie's paintings. She had originally planned to tell the film crew, but the filming schedule quickly made her forget about it.
After confirming that Xia Yixin had safely returned to the film crew, Lu Yan secretly sent two more teams to protect her, essentially ensuring that not even a fly could get in.
After the police investigation results were released, Hunan TV and the Running Man program team also issued a statement detailing the incident, and the rich second-generation who committed the act and his accomplices were all imprisoned.
This matter was downplayed due to various demands.
It wasn't until a week later that the edited version of the second part of Xia Yixin and Su Yan's episode was released. In order to respect the facts, they did not reshoot, but instead selected some scenes from that time and used a cameraman to shoot them to make a complete version.
Of course, for various reasons, the part about Yan Yiran and Lu Yan was edited out.
This episode garnered over ten million views in just one hour! The TV ratings even reached a high of 37%!
That means nearly half of the 100 households are watching!
The scene of Xia Yixin saving Su Yan was fully recorded, and many people commented, "Oh my god! My heart was pounding! But when I saw Su Yan save her, I wanted to cry. Xia Yixin is so amazing! She was so far away, yet she rushed over. If this isn't love, then what is it?!"
In no time, countless fans of Su Yan, or those who had become fans after being casual observers, flocked to Xia Yixin's Weibo to report on her, and overnight her number of fans exceeded 20 million.
Moreover, it seems that the incident of Lu Yan rubbing her head before has been given a reasonable explanation.
[Please don't forget that Ninth Master is more than ten years older than Xia Yixin. He's basically an elder comforting a younger person. Please don't overthink it.]
[That's right, that's right, and maybe it's gratitude for her saving Su Yan. It's definitely sweetness from our 'Nine Su' CP.]
As online attention shifted, the police were able to close the case successfully.
The whole thing seems to be over.
But is that really the case?
at the same time.
At St. Anna's Private Hospital in K City, Country A, after the first round of physical treatment, Zhao Jie's physical condition has improved considerably, and she is now able to undergo a heart transplant.
The sun was shining brightly, and the girl sitting in the hospital's small garden seemed to be surrounded by a halo. Her young, fair skin and clear eyes made her look as quiet as a girl who had stepped out of a classical oil painting. However, the canvas opposite her was the complete opposite, with chaotic lines and a mix of black and red.
These dark-style paintings were indeed very popular, to the point that Zhao Jie sold every single one she painted.
But Shao Lin's intuition always told him that things weren't as simple as they seemed. Zhao Jie was too calm when she arrived in Country A, so calm that it was unnatural.
He looked away, checked the time, and walked into the small garden.
Hearing footsteps behind her, Zhao Jie automatically stopped painting. "Is it time?"
"The sun has set, it's time to go back." Shao Lin rubbed her head.
Zhao Jie, who had her back to him, suddenly spoke up, "Brother Shao, sometimes no matter how well you pretend, a fake is still a fake."
Shao Lin's heart skipped a beat. "Xiao Jie, you..." Did she see something?
"It's nothing, I meant the painting." Zhao Jie interrupted him, put down her paintbrush, turned to him and smiled shyly. "I want to eat a hamburger tonight, is that okay?"
Because of her health condition, the doctor explicitly forbade her from eating high-sugar and high-fat foods, but Shao Lin always couldn't resist Zhao Jie's pleas, because in his eyes, his little sister was too well-behaved.
Her obedience made him feel guilty.
Perhaps they're demonizing her too much; she's just having a post-traumatic stress disorder.
"good."
After Shao Lin agreed, he went to prepare the car. Zhao Jie, who was left alone in the garden, suddenly had a deep fear in her clear eyes and seemed to be talking to herself.
