Translator: 549690339

He Jianmiao, who was still at the Dinghai Sub-bureau, stayed put after receiving a phone call from Ling Ruonan.

He was well aware of Ling Ruonan’s identity and understood the kind of backing the Ling Family represented.

More importantly, he was a person from the Ling Family’s camp.

Ling Ruonan, the princess of the Ling Family, held a terrifyingly high status in the family, and her influence in Yanjing was much greater than his.

Ling Ruonan could command him, and in her presence, he could only tread carefully, not daring to go against her wishes.

In just a few short sentences over the phone, he could feel that Ling Ruonan was filled with anger at the moment.

Ling Ruonan’s personal inquiry into this matter once again placed enormous pressure on He Jianmiao.

This pressure was far greater than what Ouyang Feifei and Miss Yang had exerted. When he heard Ling Ruonan directly commanding him with an authoritative tone, he froze, not even realizing when she had hung up the call.

“Director He, what’s wrong?” Sitting across from him, Li Qingyang, who had been discussing the case with He Jianmiao, noticed He Jianmiao became unresponsive after the call and couldn’t help but stand up and whisper a question, “Who was that on the phone just now?”

“Ah, the sky is falling,” He Jianmiao slumped down in his chair but didn’t tell Li Qingyang who was on the line. Instead, he instructed sternly, “You’re personally responsible for this case and must clarify all the details by tomorrow. Otherwise, we’re all in trouble!”

Li Qingyang jumped at He Jianmiao’s words.

He immediately realized just how terrifying the identity of the person who had called He Jianmiao might be.

However, Li Qingyang was not overly burdened; he saw it as an opportunity instead.

Since so many influential people were paying attention, his old rival Wu Zhengyun and Wu Zhengyun’s trusted aide Li Jinhui were doomed.

If he handled this case well, he could gain merit and the appreciation of the higher-ups.

Because he roughly knew the case and where the crux lay, Li Qingyang believed that he could definitely resolve the case by tomorrow.

“Director He, I will arrange everything overnight, take control of the key figures, and ensure by the end of work tomorrow, the case is clear and the mastermind behind the scenes is brought to light,” Li Qingyang wasn’t worried in the least; he was actually brimming with confidence, “By three o’clock tomorrow afternoon, I will report the final investigation results of this case to the city bureau.”

He Jianmiao felt a slight relief hearing Li Qingyang’s confident words.

He didn’t say much more and used the excuse of not wanting to disturb Li Qingyang’s work to leave in his car.

As he was leaving the Dinghai Sub-bureau, he initially wanted to call a superior with a close relationship to the Ling Family to probe into the situation.

He felt that there had to be an extraordinary reason for Ling Ruonan to be so angry and command him in that tone.

Otherwise, Ling Ruonan, known for her composure and rationality, wouldn’t disregard face and command him in such a manner.

If Ling Ruonan wanted him to handle something, she only needed to explain the situation over the phone, and he would understand without her needing to make a request. At most, she would share her thoughts, and he naturally knew what to do.

A direct command hinted at a loss of rationality.

Rationally, Ling Ruonan shouldn’t be exhibiting such irrational behavior, it only suggested that Luo Ziling had an extraordinary relationship with Ling Ruonan.

He Jianmiao knew that Ling Ruonan had never married and had no sons. So who could it be that had such an unusual relationship with her?

As he drove back, He Jianmiao kept pondering over this question.

Luo Ziling was equally troubled.

He had been thinking about things related to Ling Ruonan, and he was disappointed she did not get involved in today’s events.

So much so that after exchanging a few words with the sisters Ouyang Feifei and Ouyang Huihui, he stood there in silence.

Ouyang Feifei was naturally not fond of talking much, and though Ouyang Huihui was quite lively, with her sister present and worried that today’s events might be Li Jiaqing’s doing and related to her, she didn’t dare say much.

The silence inside the car was awkward.

Ouyang Feifei’s car headed in the direction of Yan University, which was a little distance away from Dinghai Sub-bureau.

As they approached Yan University, Ouyang Feifei took the initiative to say, “Ziling, don’t worry about today’s events, they’ll give you an explanation.”

“In one night, guns pointed at my head twice,” Luo Ziling chuckled and made a gesture of pointing at his head, saying playfully, “I really don’t know why coming to the Capital to study would involve so many issues.”

Ouyang Huihui felt a bit guilty and, though she opened her mouth, ultimately swallowed back what she wanted to say.

She was very anxious inside because she could no longer imagine the consequences of this incident.

Ouyang Feifei glanced at Ouyang Huihui and then said, “If this is Li Jiaqing’s doing, I will make him pay the price he deserves.”

As Ouyang Feifei said this, Ouyang Huihui grew even more afraid to speak up.

When the car stopped at the gate of Yan University and Luo Ziling was about to get out, Ouyang Feifei added, “The matter with Li Dongjun last time is almost settled. I will give you the compensation they offer you, and I hope you’ll be satisfied. Also, if anything happens again, just call me directly.”

“Thank you,” Luo Ziling sincerely expressed his gratitude. No matter what, he still had to be thankful to Ouyang Feifei.

She had personally gone to the police station and had spoken harshly in front of many people to the various directors, insisting that they quickly clear up the matter and find the person behind the scenes. As a woman whom he had rejected in marriage, the fact that she helped him like this made him feel a bit embarrassed, yet he was truly grateful to her.

Ouyang Feifei did not say much more and, after Luo Ziling and Ouyang Huihui got out of the car, she instructed the driver to leave.

The place where Ouyang Feifei’s car stopped was not very crowded, and with the time approaching ten o’clock at night, not many people were coming in and out of the school gates. As Luo Ziling and Ouyang Huihui walked through the entrance, they did not attract much attention.

“Luo Ziling, if this was really Li Jiaqing’s doing, I will definitely seek justice for you,” Ouyang Huihui suddenly said as they entered the school and reached a place where the lighting was dim, “I will confront Li Jiaqing about this matter tomorrow.”

“Even if it was his plan, he wouldn’t admit it, so it’s pointless to ask him.”

Ouyang Huihui thought about it and found it made sense, then after thinking it over, she quietly asked Luo Ziling, “If it really was him behind this, would you blame me?”

Luo Ziling smiled and said, “It’s not your intention to take revenge on me, so why would I blame you?”

“That’s good!” Ouyang Huihui sighed in relief upon hearing this and even showed Luo Ziling a smile.

Indeed, Ouyang Huihui was quite beautiful when she wasn’t acting crazy or petulant.

Even more beautiful when she smiled!
