The Scheming Ex-Husband's Courtship-Chapter 691 - 597: Did Nothing

Facing the suddenly deranged Feng Guang, Nan Yu spoke sternly: "Regardless of whether they are utterly wicked or not, no one has the right to end another’s life. I think if your mother knew you killed two people for her, facing life imprisonment at best, or the death penalty at worst, she would not rest in peace even in the afterlife."

Reminded of his mother, Feng Guang covered his face and slowly squatted down.

Nan Yu sighed and took out his phone: "Alright, you can come in now to process the scene. Yes, the case has been solved."

Police officers who had been waiting outside for over an hour now confidently walked in to deal with the aftermath. They had arrived earlier but were asked to wait outside.

"As expected, Lawyer Nan has solved the case again, and we can go claim credit."

"Lawyer Nan is really amazing. Without needing any technical forensics, just with a keen eye and a sharp mind, he can uncover the criminal’s plot layer by layer. That’s impressive."

Due to the arrival of the police, some bystanders who did not know the truth were watching. Before long, the police led a person out from inside, their head covered with a black hood, making their face unseeable.

"What happened?"

The guests were abuzz with discussion.

Qin Yong was taken away by the police for helping the murderer cover up the crime scene.

At this time, the doors opened, and the unknowing onlookers soon took their leave.

The family of three, Nan Zhan, had planned to spend a weekend at the villa, but due to the death that occurred there, their plans naturally had to be cancelled.

After the police had processed the scene, everyone drove back to the city in their own cars.

The experiences of this night were truly heart-stopping, like a gripping drama finally coming to a slow close.

Jian Si sat in the car, looking back at the villa lights fading into the distance, the police still wrapping up their work.

She sighed: "Two lively people have just vanished from this world, death is truly terrifying."

She thought of Feng Piaopiao, her once best friend, who she thought was about to start a new life, not expecting it to have ended before it even began.

Though Feng Guang had his reasons, his extremism again plunged two families into darkness. Could it be that only bloodshed can extinguish the hatred and resentment in this world?

"What are you thinking about?" Nan Zhan pulled her into his arms.

"I’m wondering how Feng Guang got his hands on that deadly cyanide."

"Stolen," Nan Zhan explained nonchalantly, "probably from some school laboratory. With the school involved in such an incident, they wouldn’t dare make it public, fearing they would be held responsible."

"Then do you think he ever had feelings for Yuan Xiaoxian, even just a little bit?" Jian Si couldn’t forget the scenes she witnessed – the young man and woman looking so perfect together, whispering to each other with eyes full of love. Could the affection for someone also be faked?

Jian Si couldn’t help but lament that much of the love in this world starts with pretense and deceit, yet not all relationships end with deep affection and mutual respect.

"Alright, let’s not dwell on it anymore, it’s in the past," Nan Zhan patted her shoulder.

"Dad, I did pretty good driving the Transformers, right?" Zhengzheng, who was sitting aside, couldn’t stand the two openly showing affection anymore.

"Very good." Nan Zhan gave him a thumbs-up, "You and Niannian are especially skilled at driving the Transformers."

Zhengzheng chuckled, "Heh."

Jian Si smiled, hugged Zhengzheng, and said, "Of course our Kudo Shinyichi is the best."

Zhengzheng, snugly embraced, squirmed uncomfortably trying to break free: "Don’t be so huggy-kissy, it wouldn’t look good in front of my future girlfriend."

Jian Si pinched his waist, "Hey, is that something you should say about your mom? Even with a girlfriend, I will still hug you, right in front of her. Hmm."

"Don’t do that, it can lead to misunderstandings," Zhengzheng yelped as he dodged to one side.

Jian Si chased after him and hugged him again, mother and son causing a ruckus in the back seat; the space meant for three was cramped,

and both of them got so sweaty from the roughhousing that in the end, it was Nan Zhan who intervened: "Stop fooling around, pay attention to road safety."

It was only then that the mother and son ceased their playfulness and laughter.

Nan Zhan tried to focus on the road ahead, ignoring the hot rush surging beneath him, for if he didn’t interject, he would lose control over the all energies within him.

As the car turned into the villa complex, Jian Si had already fallen asleep in the back seat, hugging Zhengzheng.

The moonlight glazed the window like water, casting a veil-like glow on the mother and son, their two small heads leaning together, both corners of their mouths turned upwards in a smile.

Such a serene and beautiful scene, Nan Zhan could not bear to disturb it.

Hong Yuan got out of the car and asked, "Mr. Nan, shall I wake Miss Jian?"

"No need, she is exhausted, and she sleeps soundly, just like a pig," Nan Zhan said, a gentle smile spreading across his face: "You carry Zhengzheng."
