Chapter 391: Did You Really Do It?_1
They knew her condition, otherwise they wouldn’t have been able to create a scenario where she appeared to have killed herself by jumping from a window.
Besides, they had tracked my movements closely. Their target was not me, but Jian Yufei, so they must have come for her.
The perpetrator was a female…
Ruan Tianling thought of a possibility, but he hesitated to fully believe it.
Yet all signs pointed to this person as the most suspicious.
“Did you manage to find out anything else?” He asked again.
A subordinate responded from the other end, “They also mentioned that the perpetrator knew about Miss Jian drugging you. They used this information to meet Miss Jian, making her believe that the police were out to arrest her, which lowered her guard.”
A sense of gloom filled Ruan Tianling’s eyes.
Among those who knew about Jian Yufei drugging him, there was only her and me! And Yan Yue!
“Keep them under your watch, don’t let them die!” After saying this, he hung up, angered to the point of wanting to smash his phone.
Yueyue, did you really do this?!
A City, Yan Family villa.
Yan Yue stood at the window of her bedroom, looking out at the incessant drizzle, a cold smirk curling up the corner of her lips.
Jian Yufei, at this point, you’ve probably gone to Hell to meet King Yama.
Thought you could steal Ling from my side? Let me tell you, that will never happen!
“Knock, knock, knock -”
At this moment, there were knocks on the door.
“Yueyue, you in there? I’m coming in.” Xu Man’s voice came from outside.
Yan Yue slightly lowered her eyes, walked over and opened the door, “What brings you here? What do you need from me?”
Xu Man entered and shut the door, then led her to sit by the edge of her bed with a serious look on her face, “Yueyue, I need to confess something to you.”
“What is it?” Yan Yue asked with a smile.
Xu Man took her hand and said quietly, “I had someone take out Jian Yufei!”
“Shh, keep it down!” Xu Man quickly covered her mouth, “You can’t to tell anyone, or I’ll be done for!”
Yan Yue furrowed her brows, pulling away Xu Man’s hand, she anxiously said, “Manman, are you joking with me? Murder is a crime, you know. It’s punishable by death.”
Xu Man nodded, “I know. But no one will suspect me.”
Right then, she spoke about her plan to hire assassins to commit murder.
“Yueyue, isn’t my plan foolproof? Jian Yufei was suffering from depression, she would have killed herself by jumping off a building anyway. It has nothing to do with me.” Xu Man spread her hands out, wearing an innocent smile.
Yan Yue slammed her hand down on the palm of Xu Man, speaking helplessly, “Manman, I know you did this for my sake. But this is far too risky and illegal. If anything happens to you, won’t that leave me feeling guilty?”
“There’s nothing to worry about, they won’t trace it back to me. But if something does happen to me, you must help me.” She expressed a tinge of uneasiness and fear.
Yan Yue frowned in distress, “You should know, my father is the deputy mayor. Even if I plead on your behalf, he can’t do too much or he won’t be able to protect himself. I can only appeal to Ling, only he has the power to help you.”
Xu Man’s face lit up, “Ruan is most in love with you, if you ask for his help, he will definitely agree.”
While they were talking, Xu Man’s phone suddenly rang.
She was carrying two phones, one of which was specifically used to communicate with the two killers.
