169 A Crime Of Passion
Le Yao fell silent. Her mind was filled with the contents of the original book and the situation in the past few months. The scenes flashed past like a movie.
She had already confirmed that her current world had completely separated from the world of the original book. Therefore, she could no longer use the original book as a criterion to judge anyone she met in the future.
Nangong Jue didn’t rush her. He just looked at her quietly.
There was a long pause.
Le Yao looked up. “Nangong Jue, ordinary offenses won’t kill me, so that means I either stole someone’s things or blocked their path.” She paused for a moment. “Although Han Guosheng’s family of four hates me, they won’t murder me before they get the shares of the Shengli Corporation in my hands.”
“So?”
“Therefore, there’s only one possibility. It was a crime of passion!”
Nangong Jue’s face darkened.
“Nangong Jue, if my deduction is right, since I didn’t die this time, there will be a next time.” Le Yao also stared intently at Nangong Jue. “I don’t know how the police will investigate, but if you want to find the truth for me, check the driver’s account first. If it was not an accident, then he would definitely get a sum of money... That driver is just a knife...” It was understandable that the chauffeur wanted to earn money for his family before he died. However, if he didn’t take other people’s lives seriously, then he deserved to die.
Nangong Jue’s eyes lit up, and he actually felt a little proud. His wife was indeed smart. She had even thought of this. He nodded slightly. “Okay.” He was actually already investigating, but he still needed time. If there were no results, he wouldn’t tell her for the time being.
“Well...” Le Yao hesitated for a moment and looked up at Nangong Jue seriously. “If this was done by someone you know, will you protect them?” She really wasn’t sure if he would protect Yan Zimeng if she was involved in this.
“Who do you suspect?”
“I’m not suspecting anyone. I just want to make sure that you won’t do anything against your conscience to protect someone...”
“You don’t have to doubt it.” Nangong Jue bent down and looked at Le Yao. “Those were two lives. Three people were injured. Human lives are at stake. I’m not that tasteless...”
“In that case, get someone to check the surveillance cameras near the accident. It’s not limited to that intersection. I think if they really want me to die, that person would definitely want to see the results with their own eyes...” Unfortunately, the results disappointed her.
Nangong Jue stared at Le Yao for a full ten seconds before nodding. “Okay.” Then, he turned around and left.
After the door of the ward closed, Han Xiangdong secretly heaved a sigh of relief. This man’s aura was too strong. Although he had acted very tough just now, he was actually a little afraid.
Le Yao glanced at Han Xiangdong and couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Hehe.” Han Xiangdong scratched his head in embarrassment. “I didn’t embarrass you, did I?”
“No, you’re amazing. You have to know that many sly old foxes at the CEO level are afraid of him.” Le Yao gave him a thumbs up.
Han Xiangdong suddenly became serious. “Lan, tell me. Do you know who wants to harm you?” If he found out, he would risk his life.
“I don’t have any evidence for the time being.” Le Yao shook her head. “But don’t worry, there’s no escape from the law.”
