Chapter 193 – Smash!

Then instead of lying down with her, he sat up and got out of bed.

Of course, he wasn't going anywhere, he was just making a call.

"Fourth brother?" No matter how calm Ye Si Yan was, when she received Gu Shu Bai's call at this time, she was a little surprised. She did not expect that he was awake this late, but it was good that he had called.

"It's me."

"Your sister-in-law didn't kill him." From what she just said, she had only stabbed him once, and that was certain. Of course, that was only if it was confirmed by him, because it was a one-sided story, because he had never believed her. As long as she had said it, he would believe her if she had not killed him.

This was far from enough in front of the law. What was needed was more evidence. "The deceased was stabbed twice. Your sister-in-law clearly remembers that she was only stabbed once."

"Also, there should be some connections behind this. You need to investigate." There were no bodyguards at the door, but after she escaped, there were bodyguards. Regardless of their mental fortitude, it was too much of a coincidence for all four of them to leave the scene after stabbing the middle-aged man.

"Right." That is to say, they were very sure that the fourth sister-in-law did not kill anyone. But the tricky thing was, apart from the fourth sister-in-law's fingerprints, there was no other person's fingerprint on the weapon. From this, it was possible that this was a premeditated murder.

"Fourth brother, this could be a conspiracy to kill, but it has nothing to do with the Nan Huang Palace, I checked on a part of the 'Nan Huang Palace', and it seems like the fourth sister-in-law was accidentally captured by the 'Nan Huang Palace', but in this massacre, the fourth sister-in-law acted as a scapegoat, and the man who died was indeed implicated with the 'Nan Huang Palace', so after the man died, they covered up some matters."

The bodyguards in the clubhouse never came out and pointed fingers.

After all, no one wanted to arouse the stench of blood on their body, not to mention Nan Huang Palace who was open for business. No matter how powerful she was, it was not good to deal with the police.

However, there was one thing he wanted to do, which was to protect himself. They had destroyed the surveillance system, and all the scenes where Ji Zi Mo had appeared were destroyed, which was actually very disadvantageous to Ji Zi Mo. Even if he could wash away the crime of killing for her, he was unable to wash away her first time hurting someone.

At that time, the 'Nan Huang Palace' probably thought of self-defense, peace of mind, and an explanation to the person who died. That was why they let Ji Zi Mo take the blame, they probably never investigated to find a mountain like Gu Shu Bai behind this woman.

"Is there any news about the person behind him?" Gu Shu Bai pressed his hand on his temple and asked.

"Not yet." Ye Si Yan replied right here: "But about what happened in the 'Nan Huang Palace', it's a bit clearer now." That was the reason why Ye Si Yan wanted to call Gu Shu Bai.

"It's gone."

"Eh?" His family's fourth brother suddenly spat out these two words in a low voice, causing Ye Si Yan to not be able to react in time.

"Let Lao Liu lead her men to destroy 'Nan Huang Palace'." He already knew what had happened to her in Nan Huang Palace, and because of that, she made a decision in his heart. Or rather, this decision was not made just now, and when he heard that she had been brought to Nan Huang Palace, he already had this thought.

"Alright." Originally, Ye Si Yan wanted to advise them against it, but then she thought about what kind of protector this Fourth Brother was. He swallowed his words, it was fine that the place was ruined, but as for the person behind the 'Nan Huang Palace', she was not happy about it at all.

"Mm, I'll hang up first."

"Right."

… ….

A good night of sleep had passed. The next morning, Ji Zi Mo opened her eyes to see who Gu Shu Bai was.

He was lying on his side, wearing a dark blue robe. The quilt had been rolled up to his waist. He was dozing with his eyes closed and one hand supporting his forehead.

This scene was clearly somewhat familiar, as if it was their first encounter. The first morning they met, it was exactly like this. However, their state of mind at that time was completely different.

What was it then?

She frowned as she thought about it. She couldn't remember anything. The only thing she could remember was that time. She could hear her heart thumping in her chest.

"You're awake?"

Just as she was staring at him, he suddenly opened his eyes. His thin lips moved slightly as he spat out two words.

"Right." Because he had suddenly opened his eyes, Ji Zi Mo was shocked and she quickly turned her head to the side.

"Did you sleep well?" However, this person extended his hand and pulled her face towards him.

"Not bad." His hand tightly gripped her chin, making it impossible for her to move. She could only randomly glance around.

"It's just that it's fine?"

"Otherwise?"

"professor Gu, about that, I'm going to get up. Release me." He opened his mouth, but Ji Zi Mo did not give him the chance to speak, and directly interrupted him.

"It's still early, how about we sleep a little longer?"

"No need." What's early? It was already sunrise outside, so Ji Zi Mo peeked outside the window. It was a rare sunny day.

"I want to get up. I'm hungry." Actually, she just didn't want to be with him. She felt guilty for stealing peeks at him just now.

"Okay, get up."

"Oh." Ji Zi Mo prepared to pull away her blanket.

"Wait a moment." However, he stopped it.

"What's wrong?"

"Lie down first." After saying that, he lifted the blanket and walked into the bathroom.

Ji Zi Mo sat on the bed, watching his back as she walked away, feeling that something was off, but she still sat on the bed and waited patiently.

In a moment he was back.

"Get up." He stood by the bed and extended his hand to himself.

"Huh?" Ji Zi Mo didn't quite understand.

"Your feet can walk?"

"Oh." So he had to hug her? But why did his voice sound a little cold? Compared to the feeling of being worlds apart from the professor Gu who had hugged her and coaxed her last night, Ji Zi Mo suppressed a bit of emotion in his heart, and obediently reached out his hand.

As expected, he put his hand on her waist and picked her up.

"Brush your teeth and wash your face." She was carried into the bathroom by him, and then landed on a chair. His action of putting her down was not very gentle, and the uneasiness in Ji Zi Mo's heart grew even stronger, he felt that today's him was different from a few days ago, as though he had returned to the beginning. Although he was good to her, she felt that there was a distance between them.
