Married to the Protagonist

Chen Jinlin stretched her back and yawned. The dark circles under her eyes were very obvious and you could tell at a glance she hardly sleeps well. Before leaving, Yan Cheng asked out of curiosity.

Chen Jinlin, “Ugh, don’t mention it. The police went up to the Huos next door and said they wanted a word with Huo Qidong.”

It looked serious so she couldn’t help but feel curious.

After saying that, she muttered, “Who knows what that Huo Qidong did.”

Yan Cheng raised a brow and cleared his throat. “Huo Qidong lives in that old house?”

He has not paid attention to the family matters of other people in a long time.

Chen Jinlin nodded. “That’s right. I heard he wanted to get a divorce from Zhou Xue. Of course, she’s not easy to deal with either, so she latched onto him like crazy. He really can’t help it so he just moved back here. Don’t they say you can get a divorce if you live separately for two years? Maybe that’s what he was planning.”

I heard Huo Qidong’s sister say that Huo Qidong was about to hate Zhou Xue to death cause of this mess. Sigh, he used to be so in love that he had to marry her no matter what, but now they’re practically enemies. That couple’s really turned into a joke.” Then, remembering her own sister, she added, “Pah, he deserved it.”

As soon as she said that, Chen Jinlin suddenly paused as if she had suddenly thought of something. She swallowed her saliva and carefully observed Yan Cheng’s expression. Seeing that his face did not fluctuate when he heard about this guy, she breathed out a silent sigh of relief. Seems like she was just thinking nonsense.

Right now, both her sister and her brother-in-law were doing good.

The two of them were living a life that none of them could have expected in the beginning.

The couple they thought would become a resentful one became a happy couple instead.

Just like her favorite childhood TV show.

Wrong Carriage, Right Groom.

It all started from one mistake.

Thinking back carefully, Chen Jinlin always had the idea that something was wrong. With sudden enlightenment, she made a bold guess. Perhaps the outsiders like them were the ones who were deceived from the very beginning.

She glanced quietly at Yan Cheng’s back as he left and couldn’t help but sigh.

And, at this moment Yan Cheng’s eyes narrowed, fragmented light flickering in his dark pupils. As he walked, a meaningful crease formed at his brow.

“To the police station.”

—

“I thought I’d be taken to the interrogation room.” Yan Cheng sat lazily back on the chair and narrowed his eyes with his handsome brows tilted upwards.

He returned to his former wild look.

Or rather, this was his original face to begin with.

He may be a sweet little puppy at home, but he turns into a wolf-dog once he’s out.

Deng Chuan poured him a cup of tea and laid the paper cup filled with the steaming hot liquid on the table. Yan Cheng looked down at the round ripples of the surface of the tea. Then, he heard Deng Chuan say, “The interrogation room is for suspects.”

Yan Cheng shrugged and pulled out an insincere smile with indifference.

But Deng Chuan went straight to the point. “We understand that you were in Hangzhou during Zhou Chao’s death so you have a sufficient alibi.”

Yan Cheng rolled his eyes with disdain, thinking to himself, he didn’t act like this last night. It was nice enough that he wasn’t slamming the table and threatening him at this moment.

“Zhou Chao’s family was very shaken up by his death. They’ve been pressuring the police since his body was discovered. You saw it yourself when you came in. That group of mourners out there are the Zhous.” Deng Chuan had apparently been criticized by the top so he actually apologized for real. “I was at fault during yesterday’s incident. My boss has orders for me, gets me nervous too, but still, I’d like to ask you to please cooperate actively with us during our investigation. Tell us everything you know about Zhou Chao, and also the grudges between the two of you in the past.”

“…” After a few seconds of silence, Yan Cheng looked up. “Alright.”

The hard part of the case is the fact that the cameras nearby Zhou Chao’s apartment were faulty.

They had been out of service for a while now but the committee didn’t care too much about it. As long as nothing big happens, they’ll just leave things up to chance.

Only

Without any surveillance footage, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

The most suspicious person right now is the woman who went home with Zhou Cha.

Only, the motive for the woman killing Zhou Chao is currently still unknown, and the woman has currently disappeared. They couldn’t find her at all.

The forensics report shows that the fatal wound was a stab wound.

A fruit knife straight into the heart. In addition, there were no signs of a struggle, which means Zhou Chao died without any defense. He had trusted the killer completely.
