After that they searched and found no other clues.

Before I closed the basement door, I looked at my mother's belongings and then quickly looked away.

To me, my mother's things only made things worse for me.

I didn't linger.

Returning to the main hall, Zhou Xun was calmly sitting on the sofa.

Su Shi Yan and Gong Shan stood aside, silent as cicadas in the winter.

I laughed to myself.

Zhou Xun's aura was so strong that Su Yan and Gong Shan didn't dare to say anything in front of him.

Tao Zizhou and Shen Zixian were ready to leave.

Before leaving, Tao Zhizhou looked at Zhou Xun and said, "Third Young Master has great ability."

These words were said in a baffling manner.

Zhou Xun smiled slightly, "Don't be angry, young master Tao. My assistant's removal of the suspicion would be beneficial to your efforts to solve this case. At the very least, you can change your target of investigation."

So the suspicion of his assistant had been dispelled?

He had returned to the imperial city a few times, so he might be dealing with this matter as well.

I don't know if it was my imagination, but it seemed to me that he was deliberately provoking Tao Zhizhou.

Tao Zhizhou narrowed his eyes and looked at him for a long time. In the end, he didn't say anything more and led his colleagues out.

On the other hand, Shen Zixian stood on the spot and meaningfully glanced at Zhou Xun.

Then he turned to me and said, "Are you all right?"

I nodded. "Only the injury on my face still needs some time to recover."

The gauze on his face had not been removed, and he could see it.

Shen Zixian said, "Hurry and get better."

I started, then felt touched.

He usually looked cold and aloof, but he didn't expect to care about me.

Unexpectedly, his next sentence was, "If you get better soon, you can come back to work earlier. I'm the one doing the forensic science, so what's the use of having you as an assistant?"

Me: "…"

The concern I felt just now was just my imagination.

Shen Zisheng looked at Zhou Xu and said: "Third young master, we have a long time to live."

Zhou Xun smiled as he raised his eyebrows and said unhurriedly: "I'm waiting for Young Master Shen's future."

Shen Zixian turned and left.

I looked at his sulking face and found it funny.

According to the rumors at the Imperial University, Shen Zixian was a rather perfect person. He and Tao Zhizhou were the ideal targets for many of his junior sisters.

I didn't expect you to be so arrogant …

Zhou Xun suddenly took my hand.

I came back to myself and looked at him.

His lips curled up into a faint smile. "Since she's already my girlfriend, you're not allowed to look at other men in the future."

Me: "…"

Looking into his deep eyes, I felt my cheeks heat up.

Even though I knew that he was joking, even though he and I weren't really male or female friends, my heart still palpitated.

However, from the looks of it, he would do some intimate actions towards me from time to time.

I tried to refuse him sometimes, but I couldn't resist his intimacy.

It makes me want to kill myself...

I hastily changed the topic. "That's right, Uncle Zhou. I want to settle this matter today."

Zhou Xun, on the other hand, understood my meaning.

He silently stared at me for a few seconds before letting go of my hand. "Alright!"

With his support, I was a bit more confident.

I turned to Su Yan and Gong Shan, "I hope you guys will leave the villa now. Don't even think about taking anything else from here."

Su Yan instantly glared at him and said, "You ingrate, do you want to say it again?!"

I looked at him coldly. "Grandpa's assets have already been transferred to me, including this house. Do you want to go back on your word?"

Su Yan took a few steps forward and was about to hit me, "Why did I give birth to such a thing!?" If I had known, I would have drowned you in the toilet! "

He looked as if he was going to cut me to pieces.

Luckily, Zhou Lin and the bodyguard were not far away, and they immediately rushed forward to stop him.

I was relieved.

To be honest, when facing Su Yan alone, I was indeed scared because I knew Su Yan would not show me any mercy.

But with Zhou Xun, I was not afraid of anything.

I didn't plan to talk nonsense with Su Yan. I looked at Zhou Ning and said: "Brother Lin, please keep an eye on them and don't let them take anything out of the house."

Zhou Ning agreed.

Of course, Su Shi and Gong Shan didn't want to.

Gong Shan cried, "Su Niu Jun, how can you be so heartless! "Are you trying to force me and your dad to die …"

Su Yan stared at me more closely, as if he was trying to tear me apart.

I ignored them.

Zhou Xun frowned and said, "It's too noisy."

With just these two words, Zhou Ning and the bodyguard immediately dragged Su Yan and Gong Shan out without even giving them the chance to pack their luggage.

I was a little dazed.

Zhou Xun looked at me and said, "You are still too kind."

I didn't say anything.

He said, "No matter how strong the enemy is, it's not scary. What's scary is that you're lenient."

I lowered my eyes.

I understand what he meant. If it was him, he would have just directly thrown Su Yan and Gong Shan out.

Available... I don't really want to be soft-hearted, but I'm just afraid that Su Yan will jump off the wall if he gets too angry.

However, it's impossible for Su Yan and I to be filial to a father, so there's no need to leave any leeway for him.

Zhou Xun's words made sense.

He stood up and said, "The servants in the house have all been changed. I'll have Ah Ning arrange them."

"Yes," I whispered.

Zhou Xun said, "Let's go."

I was stunned and didn't move.

Logically speaking, since the house has been reclaimed, I should be living here.

Zhou Xun seemed to be able to read my thoughts. "We'll be going to the imperial city soon. Don't move around, or there'll be more trouble."

"Oh," I said.

He would have to wait until he returned from the capital before moving.

He motioned me out.

When we got into the car, he asked me, "What are you going to do next?"

He asked without thinking, but I understood what he meant. He was talking about Su Yan and Gong Shan.

But I didn't answer immediately. I thought about it.

Of course, I don't want to let them go so easily.

But I don't seem to have any other revenge.

Beat Su Yan up?

However, a beating was not enough to vent his anger.

As for Gong Shan, I can't possibly miscarry her.

I prefer waiting for her child to be born so that Su Yan can do the paternity test and then they can bite each other.

Zhou Xun suddenly handed me a document and said, "Take a look. Do you want to use it?"

I looked at him quizzically.

He said nothing more.

I opened it and saw that it was a record of Su Yan embezzling a large amount of funds.

This evidence was enough to send him to jail.

If it was said that Su Yan had cheated on his marriage, coveted my grandfather's property, and killed my mother, everyone would only blame him morally. However, this document could let the law judge him.

Zhou Xun replied, "The embezzlement of public funds is just a small amount. He is also suspected of bribing others, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to get a penalty of around ten years or so."

Ten years?

Still too light for me.

However, this was still better than Su Yan getting off scot-free.

I whispered, "Thank you, Uncle Zhou. Let's do it."

Zhou Xun nodded his head and gently replied, "I will have Ah Ning take care of this. Don't worry about him."

I thanked him again.

It's just that I didn't expect that before we could make a move, Su Yan would make a move on me first.

Originally, I was recuperating at the Zhou Mansion, so I didn't plan to go out.

That day, I received a call from Shen Zixian saying that the case file was missing and that I had arranged it beforehand. He told me to go over and take a look.

I was taking a cab to the task force when I was attacked.
