Beware the Appearing Cute Wife!-Chapter 536 - 587, I want to talk to him alone!

Lu Changqing and Jiang Meiyi were startled to see police officers following them into the room.

"Comrade officer, has the murderer been caught? My daughter cannot suffer in vain! The culprit must be severely punished!" The speaker was Jiang Meiyi, her face full of indignation.

The officer nodded in acknowledgment.

"Indeed, the murderer has been caught!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jingyi’s face showed even more panic.

Lu Changqing and Jiang Meiyi were also taken aback.

"So quickly?"

"Yes. That person already had a criminal record, so we were able to arrest him quite swiftly this time." The officer didn’t explain further to Lu Jingyi’s parents, instead turning to speak directly to Lu Jingyi: "I came here to ask Miss Lu a few questions!"

At this point, the doctor frowned.

"The patient has just woken up; can it wait a bit?"

The officer said, "Miss Lu, it will only take two minutes of your time, is that okay?"

Lu Jingyi did not respond.

"Miss Lu?"

The officer asked again, tentatively.

They could all see that Lu Jingyi was not in the right frame of mind at the moment.

Lu Jingyi’s gaze, however, fell on Shen Yufeng, filled with sorrow.

"Everyone, please leave. I want to have a word alone with him!"

Lu Changqing and Jiang Meiyi were both stunned, but the officer exchanged a glance with Shen Yufeng and then turned to leave.

In the hospital room, only Shen Yufeng and Lu Jingyi were left.

Lu Jingyi’s gentle gaze fell on Shen Yufeng, as if by fixating on him, she wanted to etch him into the depths of her heart.

Shen Yufeng also looked back at her, his gaze equally calm.

After all, she had just awakened from surgery and was still very weak.

If the truth were not known, Shen Yufeng might feel some pity for the Lu Jingyi lying in the hospital bed, but the truth... was so brutal it was unbearable to witness.

Lu Jingyi gazed affectionately at Shen Yufeng’s face and then slowly shed tears.

"You... you already know the truth, don’t you?"

Lu Jingyi’s voice trembled, betraying her sense of helplessness.

Shen Yufeng remained silent.

But such silence was as good as an admission.

Yes, he knew everything. Last night’s incident was sudden, and there had been no time for second thoughts, but as soon as Lu Jingyi was in the operating room and Shen Yufeng closed his eyes to recall the moment, he had already sensed something amiss.

Not only were the police investigating, even Shen Yufeng’s own people were delving into the truth.

Last night, Shen Yufeng hadn’t attended the banquet alone; Su Zenan was with him.

Su Zenan was not just his driver but also a competent aide, and he had another identity behind the scenes.

But these things, outsiders didn’t know about.

The information Su Zenan sent him last night had confirmed his suspicions.

And that so-called murderer had previously gotten into trouble and was planning to flee but lacked the funds. Lu Jingyi found him and gave him a large sum of money... Therefore, he risked another crime, not expecting to... end up caught red-handed by the police.

About the incident of hiring a hitman, he confessed without denial, but he also said that the person Lu Jingyi instructed him to shoot was no other than Lu Jingyi herself!

So the matter... became rather peculiar!

When Shen Yufeng arrived at the hospital this morning, the police were already there, waiting for him.

After all, the situation was strange; who would jokingly gamble with their own life?

But Shen Yufeng already knew the truth... and he hadn’t mentioned it in front of the police.

Such matters should be explained to the police by Lu Jingyi herself!

At this moment, as Shen Yufeng looked at Lu Jingyi, he too felt somewhat powerless.

With tears streaming, Lu Jingyi said, "Had I known it would come to this, I wish... I had died last night instead!"
