The iron door to the interrogation room was quickly opened, and Wen was immediately dissatisfied, about to scold someone, but suddenly his expression changed. "Lin Xiaoxiao, what are you doing here?"
"Oh, so it's you! I was wondering why Fang Yuan got arrested out of the blue. Turns out you're the one behind it!" Lin Xiaoxiao angrily said. "I will definitely tell Uncle Qin that you abused your power!"
"You are talking nonsense..." Wen exclaimed anxiously.
But Lin Xiaoxiao had already ignored him, hastily looking at Fang Yuan. "Fang Yuan, are you alright?"
Fang Yuan looked at Lin Xiaoxiao in surprise, then moved his handcuffed hands. "Do I look alright?"
"Yes, yes. Director Tian, hurry up and unlock the handcuffs for Fang Yuan." Lin Xiaoxiao scolded.
"Okay, okay." Director Tian quickly nodded, then shouted at the police behind him, "Are you deaf? Unlock them now!"
The officer, looking aggrieved, hurriedly unlocked the handcuffs on Fang Yuan.
"Fang Yuan, are you okay?" Wang Lili hurriedly squeezed in, looking at Fang Yuan with concern.
Wang Yuanyuan and Chen Xiyun also appeared worried, though Chen Xiyun's expression seemed a bit more complicated.
"Sorry to make you worry. It seems like everything is fine now." Fang Yuan glanced at Lin Xiaoxiao and Wen.
"Lin Xiaoxiao, aren't you overstepping your bounds?" Wen complained.
"Overstepping? Aren't you the one wronging innocent people first?" Lin Xiaoxiao coldly smiled. "You must know about the gold, right? To get those things, you really stop at nothing."
Wen opened his mouth but didn't know how to refute, sneering, and then said to Fang Yuan, "Kid, we'll meet again."
After that, he turned and walked away.
Fang Yuan looked mockingly at Wen's back. Want to meet again? Sure!
"Fang Yuan, don't worry. That guy only dares to do despicable things in secret. Let's go; the lawyer will take care of everything." Lin Xiaoxiao comforted him.
"Thank you, Miss Lin." Fang Yuan expressed his gratitude. He hadn't expected that even Lin Xiaoxiao knew about this.
Also, Lin Xiaoxiao's status seemed beyond imagination, even Wen from the Jing family feared her.
"No problem, I actually need to talk to you about something." Lin Xiaoxiao smiled.
The group left the police station, and Fang Yuan kept a close watch on Wen, who was walking out.
Wen coldly got into his car and sat in the backseat, instructing the driver to drive.
Once the window rolled up and the car started, Wen suddenly disappeared without a trace, and the driver, completely unaware, continued driving.
At this moment, Fang Yuan and the others had just exited the police station.
Lin Xiaoxiao said, "Fang Yuan, let's have a meal together, and by the way, talk about things."
"Do I look like someone who can eat right now?" Fang Yuan pointed to his pajamas.
Everyone seemed to finally notice that Fang Yuan was wearing pajamas, and one could imagine what kind of situation he was in when he was arrested.
"Well, when do you have time, Fang Yuan?" Lin Xiaoxiao asked, a bit disappointed but still smiling, completely different from the way she was with Wen.
"Tomorrow afternoon."
"Okay, see you tomorrow then." Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and got into her car.
"We should head back too. I drove here. Fang Yuan, let us take you home first," Wang Lili said.
"You probably didn't sleep well last night. Rest up when you get home," Chen Xiyun added, as she had driven herself.
...
Wen was about to grab his phone to rearrange things. He couldn't just give up easily. However, as soon as he picked up his phone, he suddenly sat down hard on the ground. The car was gone, and the surroundings had completely changed.
Wen was immediately stunned. Could it be an illusion?
Without thinking, he remembered Fang Yuan and the people he had sent out. A wave of panic rose in his heart as he realized he had probably offended someone he shouldn't have.
...
Fang Yuan had initially thought about making Director Tian disappear as well, but since he was a government official, it was more difficult to deal with, and he was in public when Fang Yuan saw him.
After sending Fang Yuan home, Wang Lili left.
Fang Yuan tore off the seal on his front door, opened it, and used his mind to open a boundary channel that enveloped the door. He quickly fixed the door lock that had been broken.
Then he spent some time tidying up his place, which had been messed up by the police, before heading to his room to get dressed.
After thinking for a moment, he went downstairs and made a bowl of noodles.
After eating, Fang Yuan took out his phone and sent a message to Chen Xiyun: "Xiyun, when are you free for lunch? Just like we said yesterday."
About a minute later, Chen Xiyun replied: "No rush, you must not have slept well last night. Rest first, then eat."
Fang Yuan: "I slept most of the night, already rested enough (gritting teeth). What do you like to eat? Chinese or Western?"
Chen Xiyun: "Don't force yourself, get some sleep first. We'll have plenty of opportunities to eat together later."
Later…
Fang Yuan frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong. His recent experience probably left a bad impression on Chen Xiyun.
With a darkened gaze, Fang Yuan replied indifferently, "Okay. It's almost noon, eat early."
"Damn it, it's all Wen's fault, ruining my good plans. I won't let you get away with it!"
Fang Yuan felt that his relationship with Chen Xiyun was probably over, and he couldn't help but feel some regret. He did have feelings for Chen Xiyun, unlike with Wang Lili, where it was just about being with her in bed.
The good thing was ruined, so Fang Yuan couldn't help but transfer his anger to Wen.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Chen Xiyun was also messaging Wang Lili: "Lili, what should I do? We just met yesterday, and he got arrested that night. It feels so unsafe. And he was involved in murder, hiding corpses, and weapons. It's really scary."
Wang Lili: "But it's been proven he was wronged, right? Wen is the one behind all of it."
Chen Xiyun: "Even so, I still don't feel safe. How did he offend the family? We can't afford to offend them. I'm not worried about anything else, but I'm concerned about being with him and not having peace."
Wang Lili: "Xiyun, you're overthinking. Trust me, Fang Yuan may not be the best romantic partner, but he's definitely perfect as a husband. Don't you feel anything for him?"
Chen Xiyun paused, then replied, "I do… but let's not talk about that. He invited me to lunch, but I turned him down."
Wang Lili: "What? You're too impulsive. You're going to miss out on a perfect husband."
Chen Xiyun: "It's not as exaggerated as you say. If he invites me again, I'll just say yes."
Wang Lili: "You're thinking too simply. I know Fang Yuan, and right now, rejecting him might make him think you're rejecting him. Men's hearts can be fragile sometimes."
Chen Xiyun: "You really know him so well? Then why didn't you pursue him in college?"
Wang Lili: "I've hinted at him many times, but he's just a blockhead."
...
"Illusion..."
"It must be an illusion!"
"110…119…"
In the forest, Wen dialed emergency numbers repeatedly, changing locations, but there was no signal.
"How is this possible… How could this happen…"
"Emergency call... Damn it!" Wen angrily threw his phone on the ground.
It was getting dark, mosquitoes were buzzing, and distant animal roars could be heard. Terrified, Wen picked up his phone and hid in a tree hollow, enduring mosquito bites.
"Where the hell is this place? No signal at all?"
"How could he sneakily bring me to this place? This is completely unscientific…"
