My face froze as well. I didn’t expect Yuan Tianye to say such a thing.

In such an occasion, Lin Xixi attended as a guest and brought gifts, but Yuan Tianye directly asked her such questions, which was equivalent to deliberately targeting her.

It seems that Lin Xixi has also received a notice from the police station. She was choked by Yuan Tianye's words, and her fingers holding the gift box handle tightened. She stared at Yuan Tianye's face, pursed her lips for a long time before speaking: "Director Yuan, I came here with good intentions to celebrate your love. I was invited by you, and I also carefully prepared gifts for you and Sister Nanxu. Is it really appropriate for you to bring this up now?"

"What's inappropriate about this?" Zhang Tingyuan, who had been pushed aside by Yuan Tianye, came over and took over the conversation. "My brother Ye's question is not wrong at all. Miss Lin, you gave me this kind of scarf. My brother Ye is most concerned about Sister Meng's case. Instead of sending this scarf, you might as well send your father to the police station directly and close my sister Meng's case. Everyone will be happy."

"Yes, and besides, Manager Lin, I'm doing this for your own good." Yuan Tianye added, "You should know that your father is now a major suspect. You are also guilty of shielding him."

Lin Xixi's face was originally ugly, and she was choked by Zhang Tingyuan. She looked a little uncomfortable. After Yuan Tianye finished speaking, she felt even more uncomfortable, and it was obvious that she could not hold on.

"I didn't protect him!" Lin Xixi bit her lip, then turned around and hugged Zhou Hanzhi's arm, aggrieved, "Hanzhi..."

There was a circle of red in her round almond-shaped eyes, and a thin layer of mist, making her look really pitiful.

Zhou Hanzhi must be more loving,

I guess his next step will definitely be to protect his beloved and angrily criticize Yuan Tianye and Zhang Tingyuan.

However, the facts were different from what I expected. Facing Lin Xixi's coquetry, Zhou Hanzhi frowned, but he only glanced at Yuan Tianye and Zhang Tingyuan, then turned to Lin Xixi: "Then you, really don't know your father's whereabouts?"

"Hanzhi?" Lin Xixi was stunned. She looked at Zhou Hanzhi's face in disbelief, her lips trembling slightly. "You also suspect that I am protecting my father?"

I was also stunned.

How is this going?

Shouldn't Zhou Hanzhi help Lin Xixi and stop Xiaoye and Xiaoyuan from continuing to question and target Lin Xixi? Why didn't he stop them and asked Lin Xixi the same question?

And the way he asked this question really seemed like he was suspecting Lin Xixi was deliberately shielding Lin Youde. No wonder Lin Xixi felt even more aggrieved.

"I don't doubt you, I just think what they said is right. Your father is now the key figure in the case, and we really need to find him as soon as possible." Zhou Hanzhi's eyes and tone were very indifferent, as if he was talking about something very ordinary.

He paused, as if he finally noticed Lin Xixi's strong sense of grievance, and said lightly: "If we find him, we can find out the truth of the matter, and we can also better clear your grievances, right?"

Get rid of grievances?

No matter how you look at it, this doesn't seem like it will help Lin Xixi clear her grievances, right?

After all, Lin Youde is Lin Xixi's father. He instructed a property staff member to delete the surveillance video. No matter how you look at it, it seems like he is covering up for Lin Xixi.

Finding Lin Youde not only failed to clear Lin Xixi of the matter, but instead confirmed Lin Xixi's suspicion.

Everyone present here is aware of this, and Zhou Hanzhi is naturally even more aware of it. But he just said it this way, which made me a little confused: Is this man really helping Lin Xixi?

Why do I feel like he wants to push Lin Xixi into a pit?

I'm not the only one who feels this way. Yuan Tianye and Zhang Tingyuan also looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.

Mrs. Zhang Si raised her eyebrows slightly, but soon smiled with a meaningful smile, as if she understood something.

I looked at Lin Xixi and took a deep breath, then forced a smile: "Of course I know Hanzhi you are doing this for my own good, you have always loved me so much, but my dad has been away since the day before yesterday, my mom and I don't know where he went, and we can't contact him. We are all very anxious, but there is really nothing we can do."

"The day before yesterday? That was quite a coincidence that he left." Zhou Hanzhi frowned and said, "Well, since you can't contact him, I'll trouble the police to find him. We must find him. Otherwise, this case will always be hanging over your head, which will be a problem for you and will affect your reputation."

This is even more strange. On the one hand, it seems like he is doubting Lin Xixi, but on the other hand, it seems like he is really doing this for Lin Xixi's own good.

Lin Xixi's face turned pale, and the smile on her face became more forced. Her lips moved again and again, and Cai said, "Okay, I will try my best to find him and persuade him to go to the police station on his own initiative."

I had a hunch that something was wrong with these two people, but it was only a momentary suspicion, and I soon found the core of the problem.

Zhou Hanzhi was indeed thinking about Lin Xixi.

After all, he wanted to marry Lin Xixi into the Zhou family. Lin Xixi's family background was not that strong to begin with. If she was labeled a suspect of intentional injury, the Zhou family would be more picky and dislike her, and it would be more difficult for her to get into the family. Zhou Hanzhi would need to spend more effort, so of course he was anxious to find Lin Youde.

However, even if he found Lin Youde, he would not be able to ensure that Lin Youde was actually convicted.

He wanted Lin Youde to come back and go to the police station on his own initiative so that he could better help Lin Youde get rid of the crime, get the case settled as soon as possible, and rest assured from then on.

After all, Lin Youde is his future father-in-law.

After Lin Xixi expressed her attitude, Zhou Hanzhi's expression was obviously much more relaxed. He nodded, and his dark eyes suddenly looked at me, fixed on my face, and asked faintly: "Is Manager Meng satisfied with this?"

You see, Zhou Hanzhi is really thinking about Lin Xixi.

The reason why he deliberately questioned Lin Xixi in front of everyone was actually to help Lin Xixi out of the predicament, and it was also performed for us to see.

In his heart, he still felt that we had made things difficult for his beloved one.

I met his dark eyes, and felt a surge of bitterness in my heart. I didn't even know how I said it. I just laughed dryly: "Boss Zhou and Manager Lin personally brought generous gifts to celebrate for Xiao Ye and me. How could I not be satisfied?"

"As long as you are satisfied." His tone was very light, his eyes still on my face.

But I couldn't bear to watch any longer. I lowered my head to avoid his burning gaze, made way for him, and made a gesture of invitation: "Mr. Zhou, Manager Lin, please take a seat."

"Mr. Zhou, you are willing to sacrifice your personal interests for the sake of justice. I am very satisfied with your attitude. I am even more satisfied that you and Manager Lin can come to celebrate the wedding of my girlfriend and I." Yuan Tianye stood with me and added with a smile, "Since you are here, you are a guest. Don't be polite. Take a seat quickly. I will personally give you wedding candies and toast you with wedding wine later!"
