She ran all the way up to the master bedroom in one go.
The bedroom door wasn’t fully closed.
There was a small crack at the opening; it seemed like the door had been shut in a haste and hence wasn’t properly shut.
It matched the scenario where one did bad things in an anxious state and did not have the time to smooth out the details.
Nian Xiaomu walked forward. Reaching out, she grabbed the handle and knocked on the door.
She leaned her entire body against the door as she listened to the movements inside carefully.
All of a sudden, a weird noise sounded from inside the room. However, no one came to open the door.
Could it be that Xing Li was inside and wanted to run away because she knew that Nian Xiaomu was here?
Nian Xiaomu narrowed her eyes. Without any hesitation, she pushed the door open and rushed inside.
The next second, she realized that there was no one in the room.
Just like the living room, the large bedroom area had a very simple design.
The bed was spacious and covered by a black and white striped bed sheet.
The pillow and covers were neatly placed on the bed, and there were no signs that someone had slept in it.
If there was no one in the room, then what was with the noise that she had heard just now?
Just when Nian Xiaomu was doubting if she had heard it wrongly, she heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom.
Nian Xiaomu froze!
Cases of murderers hiding corpses in the bathroom flashed past her mind.
She remembered that in the photo of Xing Li committing suicide, a bathroom seemed to be present in the background of the photo…
Could it be that she did not commit suicide at all? Instead, it was Fan Yu who had murdered her in the bathroom and then made it seem like she had committed suicide?
Then what was he doing now?
Cleaning up the scene…
Nian Xiaomu’s state of mind had already been muddled by the comments made on the internet. The moment she thought that Fan Yu might really have murdered Xing Li and was currently processing the corpse, she couldn’t be bothered with other matters and dashed straight to the bathroom.
She grabbed the handle of the door with both hands forcefully. Just when she was about to pull open the bathroom door, the sound of water inside suddenly ceased.
The next second, the door was pushed open from the inside.
Fan Yu’s long and slender figure appeared before her.
He had just finished bathing, and his body was still wet.
His head was slightly lowered; his short hair was completely wet with beads of water still dripping from the ends of his hair.
He was not wearing anything on either his upper or lower body. As the beads of water dripped down from his hair, they followed his muscles and flowed charmingly down his abs.
The water flowed past his sexy abdominal muscles…
He had a towel wrapped around his waist.
His handsome face was covered in water, and he looked fairer than usual. At this point in time, the expression on his face froze for a split second when he saw Nian Xiaomu standing in front of him.
He seemed to be hesitating over whether he should cover his chest.
Before he could do anything, a huge hand had already made the first move of covering her eyes and pulling her backward.
As Fan Yu shook his head to fling away the damp patches of his short hair, he met Yu Yuehan’s dark and evil gaze the moment he raised his head.
He curled his lips innocently and said, “I didn’t flirt with anyone intentionally this time—I am the one who has been taken advantage of.”
At this point in time, the person who had supposedly taken advantage of Fan Yu pulled away Yu Yuehan’s hand with a confused face.
The moment Nian Xiaomu returned to her senses, she rushed to the bathroom immediately and took another look at it.
What was with Xing Li’s corpse?
What was with murdering someone and hiding their corpse in the shower?
There were none of those.
It was just a typical bathroom that was emitting hot steam after someone had taken a shower in it.
If something was actually abnormal, it would be Fan Yu, who was baring his upper body and had not yet put on his clothes after a long while.
Nian Xiaomu had just taken a glance in his direction and could instantly feel a gust of chilly air rising from her feet.
Turning around, she saw that Yu Yuehan’s face had already turned so dark that it seemed to have been splattered by ink after he heard Fan Yu’s words.
It was shimmering darkly!
“Yu Yuehan, would you believe me if I said that I didn’t see anything just now?”
