Sang Ran was a little surprised and watched Liu Jie approach step by step.

There was a flash of surprise in Liu Jie's eyes, and a barely perceptible sense of guilt as she avoided Sang Ran's sight.

"What are you doing here?"

When asking this question, Sang Ran had already guessed something, but was not sure yet.

The muscles on Liu Jie's face twitched: "The police came to ask me to cooperate in the investigation of the case."

"Is it Shen Jinshan's case?" Sang Ran pointed out, "Your child is his, right?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Jie paused in her steps, and her whole body seemed to be acupunctured, and the air around her slowed down.

She calmed herself down and didn't answer Sang Ran, but walked straight ahead.

It's just that the steps were heavier than at the beginning.

The moment Sang Ran saw her, he thought of Yao Ya's words, that Liu Jie often went out with different men.

But she never imagined that those people included Sang Huaimin and Shen Jinshan.

This world is full of coincidences. Sang Huaimin probably never thought that the child he dreamed of having in his old age would be someone else's child.

Sang Ran looked at Liu Jie's back and suddenly felt that she should take some time to meet Sang Huaimin.

The two entered the police station one after the other, but did not see Shen Jinshan. He must have been locked up in a room alone for questioning.

Sang Ran was also taken to an interrogation room by a police officer. The cold incandescent light shone on Sang Ran's face. She sat in the position where various interrogated prisoners had sat before.

Although she was not handcuffed, the atmosphere still made people hold their breath and breathe more lightly.

The policeman came in with a glass of water and placed it on the small table in front of Sang Ran.

"Sang Ran, right? Don't be nervous." He tried to smile gently, but his meticulous temperament over the years made him look oppressive from the inside out. "We called you over just to ask you a few simple questions."

"What is the relationship between you and Shen Jinshan?"

"We've only met a few times, we're not friends." Sang Ran made a clear distinction between the two.

The police officer nodded: "That's right, the surveillance in Huayangfu District was destroyed. According to Shen Jinshan, he was with you that night. Is that true?"

"Not true."

Sang Ran briefly recounted everything that happened from the time he received the news and went to Shen Jinshan's room to the time he left.

"Do you mean that Shen Jinshan wants to do something bad to you?" The policeman next to him stopped recording and looked up to Sang Ran for confirmation.

Sang Ran affirmed, “Yes.”

The policeman exchanged glances with the police officer, who understood and glanced at Sang Ran with a gloomy look:

"According to what you said, you knocked Shen Jinshan unconscious in a desperate situation. Before that, you were dizzy due to allergies, and then he poured red wine of unknown origin into your mouth?"

"Yes." Sang Ran was a little nervous, "What's the problem?"

She knew there were no surveillance cameras nearby, but she still told the whole truth.

The police officer clasped his hands together and rested his hands lazily on the table. "That night, a surveillance camera on a nearby street captured the suspect Shen Jinshan's vehicle. That very night, Shen Jinshan was suspected of helping his father Shen Changan launder money."

"I went to the hospital at 4 a.m. and met another suspect on the way. He described that you were there the whole time and played a liaison role inside."

"Your roommate didn't hear you coming back that night, and Shen Jinshan's room didn't have the items that you said were causing your allergies."

Shen Jinshan just said that the two of them had always maintained a close relationship, and that night they drank some wine as usual.

Sang Ran's brain suddenly exploded.

She understood immediately that Shen Jinshan was not investigated because he was discovered to have committed molestation and rape, but because of a political case.

He wanted to pull Sang Ran into the water with him.

Seeing that Sang Ran didn't say anything, the police asked again: "If it is really as you said, why didn't you call the police afterwards?"

"..."

There is no aromatherapy in Shen Jinshan’s room. Where did it go?

Her mind was in a mess, but she tried her best to stay calm.

Shen Jinshan obviously didn't know about her allergy. Sang Ran had always thought it was a coincidence, but now it seemed that someone did it on purpose.

There is only one person who can come and go freely around him and knows Sang Ran’s private matters - Li Chuchu!

She took the incense away afterwards, so now there is no evidence.

Sang Ran finally understood the implicit message in Li Chuchu's conversation with her in the studio. She had planned all of this.

Although the original intention was to let Sang Ran be violated by Shen Jinshan, now things are developing in another direction, which can be regarded as indirectly fulfilling her wish.

Now thinking carefully about Li Chuchu's reaction, she had known about her grandmother's health condition for a long time, or rather, her grandmother's death was inextricably linked to her.

She wanted the only person who loved Sang Ran to disappear.

It all made sense.

Sang Ran took a deep breath and said, "Officer, you don't need to test me. You should have investigated it clearly before calling me here. During that time, my closest relatives passed away, my store was damaged, and there was no substantial evidence. It is normal not to report it, right?"

The policeman raised his lips: "You are smart, but not smart enough."

"You were indeed with Shen Jinshan that night, and you were the only one who transferred the money, right?" There was a naked threat in his tone.

Sang Ran met his gaze, and a chill ran through his heart.

This person is Shen Changan’s man.

His real purpose was to test whether Sang Ran would pose a threat to the Shen family. If Sang Ran told the truth about what happened that night, he would be accused.

The young policeman next to him looked up at the police officer, but immediately lowered his head and pretended nothing had happened.

It's easy to find a pretext to accuse someone of a crime. Sang Ran doesn't need to explain any more.

They will automatically sort out a logical and flawless course of events, and Sang Ran is not the one who dragged himself into the water.

It's the one who takes the blame.

She was taken to the detention room, along with Liu Jie.

The two of them sat quietly on the iron stools beside them, with their heads down, listening to the sound of the iron and copper door being locked.

"Why are you involved?" Unexpectedly, Liu Jie spoke first.

Sang Ran looked up at her and asked, "What about you? Why, aren't you still pregnant with his child?"

Liu Jie curled her lips and sneered: "Of course they won't do anything to me. This should just be a lesson given to me by Shen Jinshan. He doesn't want to keep this child."

"That's me..."

The facts are no longer important, the result is what matters most.

They are only being detained temporarily and will be released after today's investigation is completed.

But I cannot leave China until this matter is resolved.

"My grandma...is that you?"
