Bug: On the night of the incident, it was Shi Shengde who shot Yin Shixiu in a fit of rage, not Wu Rong. Last Chapter was so thrillingly written, and yet... Junjun is utterly ashad. Regarding Xiao ng’s understanding, in this Chapter, Junjun will forcefully round it off, please be tolerant and understanding toward the aging Junjun who is no longer as sharp as when I was nineteen writing "Heart Stealer"; ti spares no one!
As for the doubt Wu Rong expressed in fear, it actually carries the sa aning, because only he, Shi Shengde, and Yin Shixiu know the fact that Yin Shixiu was shot by Shi Shengde.
Junjun sincerely apologizes to everyone! This is truly unprofessional on my part; I will be more and more careful in considering the plot in the future!

"The things you just said to Wu Rong... could be my occupational habit, but there’s sothing that caught my attention."
"..."
"How did you know... Wu Rong shot Yin Shixiu?"
Bai Sidong’s words clearly confird that there was a hidden secret in this simple sentence; by asking now, he intended to uncover this secret.
Su Xiaong took a deep breath,
"One day, uncle, you’ll understand."
"..."
Bai Sidong looked at his niece, who seed quite enigmatic at the mont, with a stern expression.
Seeing that she wouldn’t speak, Bai Sidong naturally didn’t press her, reaching out to pat her head,
"Alright, if you don’t want to talk, I won’t ask."
Xiao ng didn’t disturb the Lu Ping couple and instead said to Wu Yu,
"Next, everything concerning your father, the case from fifteen years ago, will be handled by Director Bai Sidong. He will certainly ensure justice for your father and let everyone see who is loyal and virtuous, and who is treacherous and evil."
Wu Yu t Su Xiaong’s gaze with a heavy look...
Speechless, at this mont, Wu Yu couldn’t utter a word.
Everything happened so quickly, there was no ti for anyone to process it.
Wu Yu only knew that it was this woman called Su Xiaong who brought new hope to their mother and son.
"Here is my business card, your father also has my contact information. If you encounter any difficulties, feel free to co to ."
Su Xiaong took out her business card from her bag, which boldly read "Su Xiaong, President of Yin Group."
"Also, I want to thank you... your family."
Thank you...?
Wu Yu frowned, shouldn’t their mother and he be the ones thanking Su Xiaong? How did it turn into her thanking them?
Su Xiaong smiled, her eyes forming a beautiful crescent shape.
She wanted to thank Wu Yu for helping to persuade Lu Ping to co forward and reopen the old case at a critical mont, and to thank Wu Yao for rescuing Yin Shixiu at all costs that night.
After saying goodbye, Xiao ng left the house and went downstairs.
————
Rong Jing was sitting in the driver’s seat of his black BMW, and he gestured for Deng Wei to co closer and learn more about the situation.
The call just now ended abruptly, making his heart sink, and no one picked up after that.
Rong Jing had a bad feeling about the situation.
However, Deng Wei was nowhere to be seen despite the long wait, where exactly did he go?
After waiting for quite so ti, the sound of activity seed to co from the corridor of the building, stirring up the crowd not far away.
Rong Jing was eager to get a clear view, but the awkward distance from the parking spot, coupled with the crowds, made it hard to understand what was happening in front.
Moreover, he was a notable figure, and stepping forward might lead to more complications if recognized by soone.
The commotion unsettled Rong Jing, and before he got any report from Deng Wei, an ambulance arrived instead.
With a hospital nearby, the ambulance arrived quickly.
But who was injured? Who was brought down?
Rong Jing anxiously scratched his head.
Just as the police outside began to withdraw, and Rong Jing was about to call Deng Wei, he saw... Su Xiaong coming out from the corridor.
She discreetly slipped out from a corner, wearing sunglasses and a face mask.
Yet, Rong Jing recognized Su Xiaong at a glance.
Su Xiaong walked in his direction, Rong Jing’s eyes squinting...
Her car was parked right next to Rong Jing’s black BMW; without hesitation, she got in and drove off, only glancing slightly at the black BMW.
Their eyes t head-on.
Neither turned away.
Rong Jing rolled down the window with a remote control, and Su Xiaong pulled her sunglasses down to her nose, revealing her bright, lively eyes, blinking twice as she raised her hand,
"President Rong, what a coincidence."
Su Xiaong wasn’t surprised to see Rong Jing; she hadn’t inford Wu Yao about coming here, so Wu Yao’s sudden appearance naturally wasn’t out of the blue.
Guessing that Wu Yao might have co with Rong Jing, it wasn’t unexpected to et him now.
The two cars were close, and Xiao ng leaned against hers, arms crossed, smiling slightly.
"With such a big commotion, President Rong, aren’t you going to get out and take a look? Sitting in the car like this, you probably won’t know anything."
"No matter how lively, it has nothing to do with ; I’m not that nosy."
"Oh? Wu Rong’s arrest doesn’t interest you either?"
"..."
Rong Jing’s face showed a trace of unease, which was hard to suppress.
His expression showed disbelief, impossibility, yet deep down, he felt... this was very likely.
"President Rong, what’s that expression? Wasn’t it unrelated to you?"
"Su Xiaong, Wu Rong being arrested doesn’t concern , but seeing you here today, there’s one thing I’m certain about."
"Let’s hear it."
"The long article circulating online about the fifteen-year-old case is your doing, isn’t it?"
"President Rong, you’re making it sound serious; I wouldn’t call it manipulation. Fifteen years ago, I was probably eight or nine, how could I orchestrate so prominent figures to fra an upright detective?"
"..."
Rong Jing squinted his eyes.
"I just found the Lu Ping family quite pitiful and, out of sympathy, gave them the courage to speak the truth of the past. After all..."
"You can’t let so who should live in the light be forever shrouded in darkness; it would be too unfair."
Su Xiaong’s words implied Wu Yao, but Rong Jing, unaware of Deng Wei’s identity, heard her words and beca even more convinced of his thoughts,
"Those who should live in the light but are shrouded in darkness... You’re talking about Yin Shixiu!"
Any chance to prove this, Rong Jing wouldn’t let slip even a fraction.
Su Xiaong was taken aback, her gaze drifting far away...
Indeed, it wasn’t just Wu Yao who lived in the dark for fifteen years; her husband was the sa, clearly alive yet incriminated as a dead man by those people.
Every ti Su Xiaong thought of Wu Yao, then thought of Yin Shixiu, she felt so grateful.
Grateful that after the Tianjin Port incident, she did everything in her power to protect her husband’s reputation, not letting anyone taint the na "Yin Shixiu."
Otherwise, they might have needed to "reopen the case" for Yin Shixiu too, just to get his rightful na back.
Thinking of this, Su Xiaong felt that all the persistence and hard work during that ti were worth it.
Wu Rong’s arrest...
Paved a road for Wu Yao, for Yin Shixiu, to step from darkness into sunlight.
"Ha, I knew it, ha..."
Rong Jing held the steering wheel tightly, assuming Su Xiaong’s silence as confirmation, trembling all over.
Listening to Rong Jing, Su Xiaong ca back to her senses and smiled,
"President Rong, I have other matters to attend to, feel free."
Whether Rong Jing figured out sothing or what evidence he held, she didn’t care at all.
After speaking, Su Xiaong opened the car door and got in.
Rong Jing watched as Su Xiaong drove away, further and further from his sight.
After Su Xiaong left, what further disturbed Rong Jing’s already unsettled heart was...
Deng Wei ca downstairs with Bai Sidong, then got into a police car, and Rong Jing clearly saw Deng Wei glance in his direction before getting in the car...
