Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

He Feng was not sure if what Fang Ya said was true, but as of now, he was completely out of options, so he chose to believe Fang Ya.

Fang Ya was not 100% sure that her judgment was correct.

However, in her memory, there seemed to be a person involved in the Taifeng Construction case who once kidnapped a government official to protect himself.

At that time, the case had been very popular in a small area, but it did not spread widely in the media.

That was because at that time, the kidnapped official seemed to already be involved in another case.

Fang Ya knew this only because she worked in a restaurant and heard the news by word of mouth.

Fang Ya was not sure if the kidnapped official was Nie Jun, but judging from the current timeline, it should be him.

What Fang Ya could not figure out was how Nie Jun could be involved in the Taifeng fiasco.

Most importantly, the current Taifeng construction should still be a rising star.

As many leading cadres cared about the growing private enterprises, Taifeng Construction was now the light of the citizens.

Fang Ya could not understand. was the reason for Nie Jun’s kidnapping really as the rumors said, that he was needed to testify for someone else?

The more Fang Ya thought about it, the more confused she became. However, she had no way of explaining this to He Feng.

He Feng looked at Fang Ya’s frustration and raised his hand to gently grab her hand. “I believe you, so we’ll wait for the news first.”

Fang Ya nodded and kept searching for other relevant information in her mind.

He Feng stayed in the hospital for half a day. Together with Li Tong, they asked around all the departments in the hospital.

As expected, no one found anything unusual.

Just past three o’clock in the afternoon, He Feng received a strange phone call.

The other party directly asked He Feng to meet at nine o’clock in the evening in the woods, at the eastern section of the moat.

He Feng did not ask any questions and directly agreed.

He did not tell Li Tong and the others about the news but only told Fang Ya about the situation.

Fang Ya was worried about He Feng, but she knew that it was useless to persuade him otherwise.

At 9 pm, He Feng went to the rendezvous alone.

Fang Ya nervously held her phone and paced back and forth in the room.

She did not know if she was doing the right thing, but now she felt that her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

Fang Ya stared at the clock on the wall, her hands clenched tightly.

Shao Xiang just happened to bring in the freshly boiled tong sui. When she saw Fang Ya’s dazed look, she found it a little odd.

“What happened to you today?” Shao Xiang looked at Fang Ya.

When Fang Ya saw that it was Shao Xiang, she took a deep breath and said, “Nothing. I was thinking about how to handle Wu Wei’s matter.”

“Drink something sweet first. The police have already come to look for me regarding Wu Wei’s matter today.” Shao Xiang said and pulled Fang Ya to sit down at the table.

“What did the police say?” Fang Ya looked at Shao Xiang and asked absentmindedly.

Shao Xiang poured a bowl of tong sui for Fang Ya and said, “The police said that although all the evidence now points to Wu Wei killing people, as long as Wu Wei refuses to admit to killing people, they won’t have any conclusive evidence at the moment.”

“Then will they continue to investigate?” Fang Ya scooped a mouthful of tong sui and asked.

“Yes.” Shao Xiang nodded. “They said that if we can verify Wu Wei’s whereabouts that day, we can prove that he didn’t kill anyone.”

Shao Xiang said with a faint smile on his face.

At least, they could prove that Wu Wei is innocent!

After Shao Xiang said that, she looked at Fang Ya and saw that Fang Ya’s expression was a little strange.

“Is there something on your mind?” Shao Xiang asked again.

Fang Ya glanced at Shao Xiang and sighed slightly. “He Feng went to the rendezvous alone. I’m worried about him.”

“Rendezvous? What rendezvous?” Shao Xiang looked at Fang Ya strangely.

“It should be the person who abducted Secretary Nie.” Fang Ya said with uncertainty..
