The investigation into Wang Jingwan's death had been concluded with Xia Ling's conviction.
Pei Ziheng had erased all records on this matter using his influence and hence, was harder to investigate than Xia Ling's murder.
Li Lei ran into a roadblock and decided to simply call Pei Ziheng. "I have an important matter to speak to you about."
Pei Ziheng was working in his study when he received the call, and his typically emotionless face had a flash of surprise. He looked out of the window at the shadows of the trees, saying in a low voice, "What is there for us to talk about?"
"It has to do with Xiao Ling." Li Lei responded directly.
Pei Ziheng's voice became even lower. "You're getting married… you can't be inviting me to your wedding, right?"
