581 Don’t Look at Me Like That
Qiao Xi didn’t expect Shen Hanxing to see through her excuse so easily. She blushed again and secretly looked up at her. Mrs. Ji is so pretty, just as gorgeous as Mr. Ji. She heard that Mrs. Ji came from the slums, but she was so beautiful, elegant, skilled, and gentle when she smiled. Her whole body was glowing.
Qiao Xi clenched her fists and nodded. She then went downstairs with Shen Hanxing for dinner. While eating, her gaze could not help but fall on Shen Hanxing. How could someone look so good even while eating? She could not help but imitate Shen Hanxing’s posture. She straightened her back and held her chopsticks properly. Then, just like Shen Hanxing, she picked up a piece of food and put it into her mouth to chew slowly.
After their meal, Qiao Xi accompanied grandma for a walk in the garden while Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan got into the car and rushed to the police station as people with special privileges. Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan had no intention of breaking the law. However, they would use their privileges a little so that the police would not deliberately make things difficult for them when they went to see Fan Cheng.
Fan Cheng did not look like he had been doing well in the police station for the past few days. His face was still swollen, and his wrists were cuffed. He sat listlessly on the chair. When he saw Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan, he sneered. He looked like he would not answer any of their questions and did not seem to care about the consequences.
Other than admitting that he had barged into Shen Hanxing’s grandma’s house, Fan Cheng denied knowing anything else. As for what happened in Jin Hai, he only said he wanted to build a good relationship with Zhuang Yu. He did not expect Shen Hanxing to mess things up, and the person who had given Shen Hanxing directions back then was Qiao Xi. That was why he had come to grandma’s house to take Qiao Xi away and punish her.
There were no surveillance cameras in Jin Hai’s private room, so even though Shen Hanxing knew that Fan Cheng was lying, she had no way to prove that he was. The situation was a little tense. Everyone knew something was wrong with Fan Cheng, but they did not have any evidence to accuse him of lying! It was no wonder that the police officer who contacted Shen Hanxing sounded so depressed.
Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan had already learned about the situation before they came over. They looked at Fan Cheng, sitting opposite them, and neither said a word. At first, Fan Cheng could still sit. But as time passed, he became increasingly flustered, especially when Ji Yan’s gaze fell on him. It made him extremely frightened. Finally, he couldn’t sit still any longer. He shrank his neck and swallowed his saliva before asking, “No way? Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji, you’re not the police, but you’re allowed to interrogate me? Is this in line with the procedure?” He was a little afraid of Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing. Both were aristocrats in upper-class society, but why were they more adept at fighting than hooligans like them? It was okay if it was Shen Hanxing, who was just a little better at fighting and better looking than the average person. But what was up with Ji Yan? The killing intent in his eyes was real, like a demon walking out of a mountain of corpses. It made his legs go weak.
Fan Cheng didn’t think he could afford to offend Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing, but he could hide. He had volunteered to go to jail, so why didn’t these two let him off?
“Don’t worry, we won’t disrupt the process of the case, and we won’t participate in your interrogation,” Shen Hanxing’s gaze was ice-cold as she looked at Fan Cheng and said, “we’re speaking on our behalf, so we have a few questions to ask you.”
“Isn’t this an unnecessary move?” Fan Cheng sighed in relief when he heard that Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan would not participate in the police interrogation. He smiled and said, “no matter what you ask me, I won’t say anything.” He subconsciously wanted to cross his legs, but when he met Ji Yan’s deep eyes, his body stiffened, and he sat up straight subconsciously. The mocking expression on his face also disappeared.
Fan Cheng had been so powerful these few years. When had it suffered such grievances? He felt aggrieved just thinking about it! He couldn’t help but pinch the corner of the table and raise his voice slightly, “Mr. Ji, don’t look at me like that. If you look at me again, I’ll still show the same attitude.” Why did this person keep using his gaze to scare him? Did he think he could scare him? Although Fan Cheng was a little scared, this was the police station, and Ji Yan would not do anything to him. So he knew very well what he should and should not say. If he didn’t say it, he broke into a private house and destroyed other people’s property. At most, he would be locked up for some time and needed to compensate a sum of money. If he said those things, not to mention whether he would be in prison for the rest of his life, even the person behind him would not let him off. He could be assassinated at any time!
