Attention Sir, I Have Your Heart Handcuffed!-Chapter 790: [Yan Jian Extra] 36. In short, I’m going back to fall in love_3

Her intuition made his heart skip a beat. But more crucially, he needed to know if it was just her own intuition or if it came from the Tang Family, or more specifically, from Tang Yanqing.

If it was the latter, that would be terrible; but if it was the former... only then could he continue to act with peace of mind.

.

Upon hearing this, Yan Yu couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. Luckily, feeling relaxed at the moment, she gave a gentle smile: "Your concerns, from a behavior analysis perspective, actually turn into reverse evidence—proving that I’m very likely right."

"Shut up!" he coldly interrupted, staring intently into her eyes: "Answer my question."

Disappointed by his interruption, Yan Yu’s prior joy shattered like a bubble, disappearing in an instant.

In front of him, this cold guy seemingly couldn’t bear to see her happy.

So she gradually withdrew her smile and sighed: "In fact, it’s not just me who thinks this way; haven’t the media been speculating in the same direction?"

The intuition and reasoning ability of the media sometimes even surpass the police, which is astonishing. And if a reporter, like her younger sister-in-law Shi Nian, possesses deductive talents, it becomes even more alarming.

In fact, Shi Nian, her younger sister-in-law, had wanted to write an article pointing to Lin Qi and his son after Catherine’s car accident. But strangely, her older brother stopped Shi Nian’s article, even contacting the prosecutor’s office to obtain an injunction, preventing other media from publishing similar articles.

She asked her brother, and he explained that it was a request made by Lin Qi’s lawyers. They didn’t want baseless speculations to damage Lin Qi and his son. Furthermore, Lin Qi’s lawyer had submitted enough alibi evidence to the police to fully prove that neither Lin Qi nor his son was present at the scene of Catherine’s accident.

Yan Yu shook her head in thought: "Actually, the logic is sound, you see: although Lin Qi and his son now seem to have a pleasant cooperation with James, there’s bound to be conflict of interest between Lin Qi and his son and James regarding the actual ownership of the Ford Group. So, considering who benefits from the car accident, Lin Qi and his son indeed have a motive for the crime."

So that’s how it is.

Ben Shaming relaxed and snorted: "Fortunately, your police officer brother doesn’t think as shallowly as you do. What you say isn’t entirely wrong—there’s indeed a conflict of interest between Lin Qi and James, so theoretically such an incident could happen; but don’t forget, it was only Catherine who was in the accident, not James. James wasn’t in Catherine’s car at the time, and Catherine’s car windows weren’t tinted, so no one would think James was inside." 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"That is to say, there’s no direct conflict of interest between Lin Qi, his son, and Catherine, so the motive for the crime is merely objective speculation, which cannot serve as a legitimate basis for reasoning."

Yan Yu bit her lip: "Yeah."

Then she turned her gaze to him: "Then why are you so nervous? And... if you also believe Lin Qi and his son are innocent, are you suggesting that it was truly you who caused Catherine’s car accident?"

Ben Shaming had already gotten the answer he wanted, so he snorted and stood up: "Put away your curiosity. I have no obligation to answer your groundless curiosity. I’m leaving first."

Yan Yu was inexplicably angry, slamming the table as she stood up and glared at him: "Ben Shaming, what exactly do you want to do?"

Ben Shaming stared coldly at her: "What does it have to do with you?"

Yan Yu took a deep breath: "I can’t say it’s irrelevant because this matter involves my younger sister! Even if it has nothing directly to do with me, I still have to protect my sister!"

Ben Shaming’s face turned even colder, unable to resist cruelly exposing her: "To protect your sister, there are the police, there’s everyone in the Tang Family—it’s not just you, Tang Yanyu... Compared to any member of the police or the Tang Family, you’re the most incapable one. So why do you have to be strong and take this responsibility on yourself? You could leave it to other members of the Tang Family, couldn’t you? Why do you have to get involved and keep bugging me?!"

.

"What are you saying?"

Yan Yu was almost brought to tears by Ben Shaming’s harsh words.

Embarrassment, helplessness, regret, struggle, all overwhelmed her at once.

Yes, he wasn’t wrong. Being so useless, why did she have to take it all upon herself? She could leave it to someone else!

Or was it, as he subtly suggested, that she was just using this matter to get close to him, to "bug" him?!
