Chapter 1704: Where On Earth Are You Touching?! (14)
Qiao Yiyi froze for a second and her heart missed a beat. Why was Liang Liang looking for her?
Why was Liang Liang looking for her?
She frowned and grew uneasy.
Could he have discovered her ident.i.ty? But that was highly unlikely. After all, it was dark at night and he couldn’t have seen her.
Yet she couldn’t think of a reason why he would come to look for her. Hence, she lowered her head and thought that, since he was there, then she would just make the best out of the situation. If she had no idea, the least she could do was to find out what was going on.
She calmed herself down at this thought and stood up to follow the butler.
When she arrived downstairs, she saw Liang Liang sitting on the sofa looking at her.
Lu Nanze, on the other hand, had perhaps gone to work and was not home. At this point, there were only the two of them in the living room.
The butler took Qiao Yiyi to the guest and retreated afterwards.
In any case, his master didn’t care about Madam too much, so the butler himself wouldn’t bother either.
One of the housekeepers served two cups of tea and went back to the kitchen.
Qiao Yiyi put on a restrained look and slowly walked up to Liang Liang. She stammered, “Police Officer Liang, how- how can I help you?”
Liang Liang looked up and stared steadily at Qiao Yiyi with his piercing eyes. He asked, “Does Madam Lu really not know why I’m looking for you?”
That tone… it was as though he was extremely certain.
However, Qiao Yiyi knew this man very well.
If he had evidence, he wouldn’t have come looking for her. Instead, he would have come to handcuff her.
Hence now, he was just trying to bust her.
At this thought, she lowered her head and started, “I- I don’t know.”
“Well then, I would like to remind you that I’m here because of the matter with Traceless.”
Traceless?
Qiao Yiyi’s eyes flashed as she tightened her fists.
Because she had straightened her arms, the movement pulled her wound and she felt a wave of pain.
But she looked at Liang Liang straight in his eyes and shook her head innocently, saying, “I really do not know. Who is Traceless?”
“Madam Lu, you are good at pretending. While I think it may be possible that other people might not know who Traceless is, how could you not? After all…”
He rose to his feet suddenly and stared right into her eyes.
He looked as though he was certain of something.
Qiao Yiyi’s pupils shrank back. She was prepared, the moment he said those words, she would start to run.
She even had an escape route already planned in her head.
But unexpectedly, the next moment, the man said, “After all, you’ve come into contact with her.”
She sighed silently in relief.
Had come into contact. That meant that he didn’t know she was Traceless.
She lowered her head immediately to calm herself down. She raised her head again and seemed to be at a loss. She replied to Liang Liang, “Police Officer Liang, I really don’t know what you’re talking about. Who is Traceless?”
He stared at the timid woman standing before him.
He couldn’t say she was really timid.
Oddly, there was something about her that told him she wasn’t as weak as she looked.
But he could tell she was intelligent.
Her eyes were like a rabbit’s, glistening in a way that made people feel sorry for her.
Liang Liang felt that he had finally met his match.
After all, Traceless had stolen Lu Nanze’s bracelet—and the only people who had a good reason to hire Traceless to do this were Madam Lu and Shen Liangchual.
