Chapter 608: You Are Indeed Not Famous for Nothing
On the way back, Feng Shanshan couldn’t help but ask Mu Qiqi, “What actually happened between you and Ye Jingcheng that you have such deep hatred?”
Mu Qiqi snorted and answered, “He and Mu Tangxue used to bully me when we were young. Perhaps it was me who made Mu Tangxue disappear, so he wants revenge for her.”
“Was it really that miserable when you were in the Mu family?”
Mu Qiqi glared at Feng Shanshan.
“Alright, I’ll stop asking.” Feng Shanshan put up her hands to surrender. “Anyway, your man has indeed contributed a lot in making you into the new you now. Don’t you want to tell him about this?”
It’s impossible for her not to get angry when she was nearly hit by a flowerpot. But she would not let Sheng Xiao get revenge for her for such a trivial thing.
Soon, the two arrived at the police station. Once they saw the victim’s parents, they immediately felt uneasy.
Because they were an old couple. The old man had white hair and a hunchback.
How heartbreaking it would be when they find out that their son had already pa.s.sed away?
“Misses, a policeman told us to come here. May I know what happened to my son?”
“Is your son Cheng Yunfeng?”
“Yes, we only have this one son, conceived in our forties. We’ve spoiled him. If he did anything wrong, please forgive him. He’s not a bad person.”
Mu Qiqi glanced at Feng Shanshan and said, “I really don’t like handling such a case.”
“Who will?” Feng Shanshan said.
Mu Qiqi wondered if the old couple would faint right away when they get told that their son was already gone forever.
…
On the other hand, Tang Yan went to Ye Jingcheng personally. However, Ye Jingcheng was not at all polite when he saw Tang Yan. “Why did you make Mu Qiqi leave? I still want to talk to her.”
Tang Yan turned and looked at Ye Jingcheng. With a formal tone, he said, “Mr. Ye, you don’t seem to realize that a life has been lost in your building.”
“Lives are so fragile now.” Ye Jingcheng smiled. “Sir, I thought you’d be used to it already.”
“I’ve also heard about the matter between you and Mu Qiqi. But I would advise you not to simply touch her before you find what you want. Otherwise, the thing you care about may suffer tenfold the torture she had suffered. What do you think about that?” Tang Yan said in a deep voice.
Ye Jingcheng stopped smiling immediately and looked at Tang Yan coldly. “You can do whatever you want to investigate the case, but don’t affect my business.”
“People died in Ye Holdings. As the upper management, you cannot deny the responsibility for it. As for whether you’re trying to protect the murderer or do something similar, I will come to you again after I find out about it.”
“I didn’t expect such a handsome and strong police officer to be interested in protecting Mu Qiqi.”
“She is my colleague.” After that, Tang Yan walked around Ye Jingcheng’s office. “If I have any other doubts, I will come again.”
Ye Jingcheng did not say anything and simply made a welcoming gesture.
Tang Yan marched out of the office. Then, his subordinates asked, “How was it?”
“There’s a rope which hasn’t been cleaned up at the rooftop. It must be what was used to tie Cheng Yunfeng up. We have gotten the professor to extract the DNA sample from the rope to check if it matches Cheng Yunfeng’s. And, we will see if we can find the murderer’s fingerprints on it.”
“The A team learned that Cheng Yunfeng was a very hardworking man. He worked hard and never had grudges with anyone. The B team learned that the department he was in was planning to promote the staff. Cheng Yunfeng had a big chance to get the promotion. So, it might be the compet.i.tion that caused this murder. Speaking of this, we really want to criticize this Ye family. It is a very harsh company which uses its employees to the fullest. The working hours are long, and the work is very tiring. They don’t treat people as people.”
“Look into the staff who competed with Cheng Yunfeng. As for the rest of you, follow me back.” Tang Yan ordered.
As for Ye Jingcheng, he was a little troublesome.
Since it was due to personal grudges, he thought he could solve it by personal means.
The team got into the police cars and Tang Yan sat in the backseat, closing his eyes to rest. Seeing this, the team couldn’t help saying, “Captain Tang, why don’t you go home and rest? We will follow up the case and report to you if there’s any progress.”
“I can just rest in the police station. You can just carry on.” Tang Yan nodded.
The team was surprised to see him agreeing to rest.
After all, since Tang Yan reported to the police station, he had been a total workaholic. But now, he was actually willing to rest?
The team did not know about Tang Yan’s injury. They thought the case he helped out with was solved smoothly. Moreover, since they’re all men, they did not realize that Tang Yan’s face was very pale.
After going back to the police station, they saw the old couple wailing in the morgue.
Mu Qiqi and Feng Shanshan felt helpless, but Tang Yan said, “You can’t even handle this. Go out and I’ll do it.”
Feng Shanshan rolled her eyes. It didn’t matter to her anyway.
However, in just five minutes after Feng Shanshan and Mu Qiqi left, the couple was calmed down by Tang Yan.
Then, he got other people to attend to them.
“Where are you going?” Feng Shanshan saw him leaving the morgue and quickly asked, because he had yet to finish his work.
“Rest.” Tang Yan uttered a one-word answer.
Feng Shanshan nearly burst into laughter. Because only she knew that Tang Yan was following her order.
However, after entering the resting room, Tang Yan planned to make a call to someone, who was Mu Qiqi’s family. He hadn’t seen how clever the famous man in Jianchuan was yet.
When he received the call from Tang Yan, Sheng Xiao had just ended a video conference.
Seeing an unfamiliar number, he waited until it rang three times before answering the call. “Sheng Xiao speaking.”
“I’m Tang Yan.”
Sheng Xiao knew who Tang Yan was. But he felt that it was strange that Tang Yan would call him.
“For the matter of the Ye family?” Sheng Xiao asked.
“You are indeed not famous for nothing. Mu Qiqi was nearly hit by a flowerpot today. That man with the surname Ye is very hostile toward her. He seems to be looking for a person. Do you know about that?”
“Captain Tang, you’re able to even get my phone number without asking. How would you not know what that man is looking for?” Sheng Xiao chuckled. Both men had strong auras. “Are you here to remind me?”
“Your protection to Mu Qiqi is usually very comprehensive. Use them all now. After all, he might be a murderer. I’m worried that you might underestimate him.” Tang Yan reminded him with a flat tone.
