Chapter 394: Chapter 394

"Why are you here?" Liu Chao asked, scrutinizing her. His face was pale, his gaze slightly dazed, as if he’d been drinking heavily.

Was she stalking him?

If so, this could be tricky! This woman was like sticky taffy—annoyingly persistent.

Ye Duowei sneered sarcastically, "And why shouldn’t I be here? This isn’t your private property, is it? Who are you trying to hook up with this time? Aren’t you afraid of catching something?" New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novel⦿fire.net

The call he just hung up on—surely the other person was some other woman, right? He really couldn’t spend a moment idle, could he?

Liu Chao rubbed his nose, an almost mocking expression flickered in his eyes as he said indifferently, "Ye Duowei! I hope you understand that we’re all just here for fun! Learn the rules of the game! Why take things so seriously?"

Who is she trying to fool, acting so prim and proper?

After all, wasn’t she already his? Not bad in bed, sure, but compared to others, she was just average.

To tell the truth, he’d been asked to mess around with her. But she had such an unappealing personality. Even if she were a bit more pliant, he wouldn’t have been able to cut things off cleanly right after sleeping with her. He’d at least have to toy with her for a couple of days before dumping her.

Ye Duowei’s eyes reddened from his words, but she forced herself to stay strong. She wouldn’t lose her composure in front of this despicable scumbag!

With a cold laugh, she retorted, "Who’s taking it seriously? I’m only kindly reminding you! Frequent these places too much, and you won’t escape untouched. One day, you might catch something nasty—and die miserably!"

She now found him utterly repugnant. If there was any lingering attachment to him before, now it was replaced entirely by boundless hatred!

Why give her hope, only to crush it?

She’d genuinely intended to find someone for a serious relationship and settle down this time!

Why, why did *he* have to turn out ?

Liu Chao’s expression shifted, an icy look flashing in his eyes, before he suddenly burst into an unexpected smile. "Well then, I should thank you for the kind reminder! But there’s something you probably don’t know. In fact, I don’t mind telling you now."

He hadn’t originally planned on saying this, but she’d pushed him. Now there was no way he wouldn’t.

He never hit women, so instead, he chose to make them suffer emotionally.

Ye Duowei’s heart suddenly sank with an ominous feeling. Whatever he was about to say would undoubtedly drive her to the brink.

"I don’t want to hear it!" she said hastily, then turned to leave. But the figure behind her wouldn’t let her go, striding forward to grab her wrist and yanking her back forcefully.

"Why don’t you want to hear? Are you afraid now? Ye Duowei! Somebody wanted me to say hello to you—and also wanted me to ask whether you found my moves sufficient. Compared to Yin Xian, how do I measure up?" Liu Chao murmured wickedly into her ear.

This was all her own doing! If she hadn’t crossed paths with him here, if she hadn’t mouthed off, there’d be no reason for him to bring this up. Who was left to blame—other than herself?

Ye Duowei felt as if her world had just shattered. Clutching her ears desperately, she didn’t want to hear! She didn’t want to hear Yin Xian’s name!

Who was it? Who knew about this? Whoever it was must be someone who was aware of her connection to Yin Xian!

"Who? Who told you to say that? Spill it!" Ye Duowei demanded, her face contorted as she grabbed his collar, shouting in fury.

"Wang Mei," Liu Chao replied softly, spitting out the name as he pulled her hands away and spun around to leave.

Ye Duowei collapsed helplessly onto the ground. Finally, she understood! No wonder! Everything had clicked into place, and she now saw the full picture.

So, this was how it all happened!

Her revenge had been savage—utterly ruthless—leaving her crushed to the bottom of the dust!

Wang Mei! I’ll make you pay the same price! Just you wait!

Inside the interrogation room, Heizi stared sternly at Leng Mohao. He looked extremely haggard, his bloodshot eyes and chin covered in fresh stubble.

He was a far cry from the figure he used to be!

Leng Mohao, however, maintained his straight-backed posture, his expression unchanging. In his mind, he was already calculating how he’d respond to their interrogation.

He wondered if his mother’s efforts outside were yielding any results.

If this was solely a matter of him injuring Leng Mochen and leaving him with minor injuries, it wouldn’t be too difficult to sort out. His father, though far from exemplary, had connections from his past. The real worry was whether his anger would keep him from acting.

The key issue now was that his voice-disguised phone call had been recorded by some bastard. That was a problem!

Plus, the police had collected his voice samples. He couldn’t tell if modern forensic technology could uncover anything, but the situation wasn’t in his favor!

He was beginning to regret acting so rashly back then. He should’ve taken more time to plan before making a move.

This was practically handing incriminating evidence right into their hands!

What scared him the most was that the authorities had started digging into the C City car accident from years ago. While he knew that had happened several years ago and the individuals involved had never met him face-to-face...

There was neither direct evidence nor witnesses for that case. But what if, against all odds, some overlooked clue still existed for them to find?

Heizi barked sharply, "Leng Mohao! Raise your head! Tell the truth! Why did you orchestrate the parking lot kidnapping? Was it out of personal revenge against Leng Mochen?"

The newly released voice analysis report showed that the submitted audio material had several identical resonant peaks. Their distribution patterns and progression matched exactly. Furthermore, the transitions between consonants and vowels were highly consistent. The analysis conclusively determined that the voice on the tape belonged to Leng Mohao.

Let’s see how he’d try to deny it!

Even if they couldn’t find substantial evidence for the C City car accident yet, there was no way he’d escape blame for the parking lot kidnapping and attempted assault cases!

Leng Mohao looked up calmly at him. "I didn’t do it! How could I possibly admit to something I didn’t do? By the way—you seem to have a good relationship with Leng Mochen. Are you trying to use your position here for personal motives and coerce a confession from me?"

He would never admit it—even if he had to face a firing squad!

Don’t think he didn’t know. The Black Iron Tower seated in front of him was definitely in cahoots with Leng Mochen. He’d stubbornly cling to this argument and see how they’d proceed with the interrogation!

Heizi couldn’t help but snicker coldly. "Leng Mohao! You really think you won’t cry until you see the coffin. I know Leng Mochen, that’s true—this can be verified. However..."

"I’ve done nothing wrong and fear nothing! Now, about *you*! The voice analysis report has already come out! The phone call was unquestionably made by you! What more excuses do you have?" He slapped the report onto the table with a crisp ’bang.’

"I don’t believe it! That report could be fake—and you’re just trying to frame me! I demand to see my lawyer!" snapped Leng Mohao, indignant. Although he had used voice distortion on that call, how did they manage to identify him for certain?

"You can see your lawyer, but not right now! For now, you need to come clean and explain your actions thoroughly. Otherwise, the only thing awaiting you is the severe punishment of the law!" Heizi’s words were resolute as nails hammered into a board.

Although panic swirled in Leng Mohao’s mind, his face betrayed none of it. He remained composed as he sparred with Heizi.

After a lengthy tug-of-war, Heizi employed another tactic. He played the tape provided by Zhou Zhi from the C City car accident years ago.

Then, he laid out an intriguing revelation—that one of the individuals involved in the old car accident case happened to also be a participant in this recent kidnapping!

Leng Mohao found himself unable to withstand the relentless interrogation tactics. Upon hearing this detail, his composure cracked entirely.

The people he’d hired this time were plucked from online employment sources—how could they have links to the incident from years ago? (To be continued.
