Jiang Jingchen contacted Ji Yi to ask him about the investigation.

Song Zhou had been injured, so Ji Yi took over the investigative work.

He reported, “The hotel surveillance videos have been tampered with. Almost a full minute had been erased, and in that minute, someone tampered with the car. Phosphorous was hidden somewhere in the car. When the car bumped around, the engine heated up and the phosphorous ignited spontaneously, resulting in sparks which caused the car to explode.”

Jiang Jingchen then asked, “Have you checked the people who entered and left the hotel?”

“We are still checking. There were quite a few tourists over the New Year holidays.”

Jiang Jingchen was dissatisfied and ordered, “Send me the surveillance videos from the hotel. I’ll check them again. Also, why were there so few cars on the road yesterday?”

It wasn’t that Jiang Jingchen didn’t trust Ji Yi, but that he and Ji Yi had different perspectives on things. Perhaps he would discover something different.

Ji Yi replied, “It snowed yesterday and ice formed on the road, so vehicles were restricted from passing through.”

“Who issued the last-minute restriction? Go and investigate.”

Jiang Jingchen turned his head and looked out the window. It snowed last night and the world was still covered in snow. Snow could hide bloodstains, but it couldn’t hide danger.

He got up and left the hospital for a while before he returned to Tang Beibei’s ward. Ruan Qi saw that he was back, so she left Tang Beibei’s ward and went to see Song Zhou.

Jiang Jingchen waited for Ruan Qi to close the door before he walked to Tang Beibei’s bedside and said, “Obedient Beibei, I want to give you a present.”

“A present?”

“Guess what it is?”

Tang Beibei thought for a few seconds. “Don’t tell me you brought me books because you’re afraid that I’ll be bored.”

Jiang Jingchen chuckled in amusement before he lowered his head and kissed her on the lips. “You little nerd, are you still thinking about reading when you are already like this?”

Tang Beibei felt helpless. “But I’m so bored just lying here. What are you giving me?”

Jiang Jingchen took out a transparent box and opened it for her. Tang Beibei’s eyes lit up in surprise.

“It’s snow.”

“Yes, it snowed heavily. I even recorded it for you to see.”

Jiang Jingchen turned on his phone and showed her the video he had shot outside.

“There are a few plum trees outside the hospital. The plum blossoms are in full bloom and made the air smell sweet. When you feel better, I’ll bring you outside to have a sniff.”

“Okay.”

Tang Beibei looked at the plum blossoms in the video and her mood improved instantly.

Jiang Jingchen saw that she could smile so happily just because of such little things, like she was so used to injuries that they didn’t bother her.

He lowered his head and kissed her on the cheek. “Obedient Beibei…”

“Hmm?”

“Obedient Beibei, why are you so lovable?”

Tang Beibei smiled at him. “Is it because I’m cute?”

He often said that she was cute but she didn’t understand why she was cute.

Jiang Jingchen laughed in amusement. “Yes, so cute that I want to take a few bites.”

Tang Beibei was puzzled. “I’m so lovable, but you want to bite me? If you bite me hard, I’ll be the one in pain.”

Jiang Jingchen chuckled and chatted with her for a while. His wife’s brain was indeed different from ordinary women. She would always say things that were beyond his expectations. She was very interesting.

After she took her medicine and fell asleep, he went to check the surveillance videos that Ji Yi sent him. There were many videos, and the internet speed was slow.

He watched the videos on his laptop. When he saw a familiar back, he clicked the pause button.

He narrowed his eyes and watched the clip frame by frame. After making sure that he wasn’t mistaken, he contacted Ji Yi.

“Can you look specifically into Zhu Fan’s activities in the hotel?”

Ji Yi replied ten minutes later.

“Zhu Fan is very suspicious. We couldn’t find him in the one to two minutes after the one minute had been erased. And before the one minute had been erased, Zhu Fan was in the hotel garage. 1 also ran a background check on Zhu Fan. He’s into cars and have done a lot of modifications on his own car.”

“The Zhu family also own a car business, he knew a lot about car parts.”

Jiang Jingchen sneered. He didn’t expect Zhu Fan to want to harm people over a small matter like love.

“Find out who else went to the garage after Zhu Fan left. Although the Zhu family is rich, they are not powerful enough to be above the law.”

With Zhu Fan as a lead, they could take the investigation in many different directions.

Ji Yi immediately brought his men to find Zhu Fan and ask him personally what he was doing in the garage. If he tampered with the car to cause an accident, he would not be able to live well!

At the moment, Zhu Fan was in his rented apartment.

Because of his breakup with Ruan Qi, he felt frustrated and guilty.

When Zhu Fan heard the doorbell ring, he opened the door in confusion to find a man in a food delivery uniform.

“Sir, you have a takeout.”

“I didn’t order any takeout.”

“A gentleman ordered it for you. Check it yourself. It seems to be a gentleman with the surname Jiang.” As the delivery guy spoke, he walked in and handed a pen to Zhu Fan. “Pay on delivery. Sir, please sign here.”

“Mr. Jiang?”

Panic flashed across Zhu Fan’s eyes. He was curious about the contents of the bag but he was also a little scared.

“Sir, please pay and sign.” The delivery guy urged.

“How much?”

Zhu Fan was staring at the bag the delivery guy was holding and didn’t notice that the guy had walked into his apartment.

Ji Yi walked into Zhu Fan’s apartment and closed the door. He said with a chuckle, “1 don’t need money for this, but I need your hand!”

“You… Oh.”

Ji Yi grabbed Zhu Fan by the neck, took out a syringe and injected someone into his neck. Zhu Fan’s body instantly went limp as he fell weakly to the ground.

But he was fully conscious.

His pupils dilated in fear. He wanted to run, but he could only barely move his fingers.

Ji Yi squatted in front of him and asked, “Did you tamper with Jiang Jingchen’s car?”

Zhu Fan pursed his lips and closed his eyes, refusing to speak.

He was not stupid. They had no evidence, so why should he confess?

Ji Yi took out a dagger and rolled up Zhu Fan’s sleeves. The blade of the dagger shone coldly as he placed it on Zhu Fan’s wrist.

“Have you heard the story of Pao Ding cutting up an ox? I can amputate your hand without breaking any bone.”

Zhu Fan felt the dagger against his skin and suddenly felt a sharp pain. The dagger was extremely sharp and had cut through his skin.

The room was climate-controlled, but the floor was still very cold. His face was pressed against the cold floor, but the dagger that was stained with his warm blood felt even colder.

It was a deadly talisman with a murderous aura!

Ji Yi chuckled and asked, “Zhu Fan, you don’t believe that 1 can cripple you?”

Zhu Fan struggled to speak. “How dare you hurt me in broad daylight! I’ll make sure that you are punished to the fullest extent of the law!”

Ji Yi laughed out loud like he had heard something funny.

“When you tampered with the car, did you ever think that you would be punished by the law?”

“I’m going to cripple you, not kill you. Your actions, on the other hand, would constitute premeditated murder. Your crime would be much more serious than mine!”

“Tell me honestly, what did you do to the car? If you tell me, I will leave your hand alone.”

Zhu Fan looked at his hand. He was a doctor. If his hand was crippled, his career would be over.

“I nicked the brake cable to make the brake fail. I wanted to teach Song Zhou and Jiang Jingchen a lesson. They set me up, and I’m no pushover!” Zhu Fan roared with all his might.

“Just the brakes?”

“Yes, just the brakes! 1 hate them, but I won’t murder them.”

When Zhu Fan left the hotel, he was really upset. When he saw Jiang Jingchen’s car, he suddenly developed this very bad idea.

But when he got home, he felt a little regretful and scared.

It snowed that day and the ground was very slippery. If their brakes failed and they got into a car accident, wouldn’t he become a murderer?

But he didn’t have the courage to tell Ruan Qi about it. He told himself that a dirty woman like Ruan Qi should just die so she wouldn’t dirty another person’s eyes.

Ji Yi pressed Zhu Fan again, but Zhu Fan insisted that he only tampered with the brakes.

Ji Yi kept his dagger and kicked Zhu Fan in the abdomen before he pointed at his phone.

“Zhu Fan, I’ve recorded what you said. 1 wonder what surprise awaits you! I’m really looking forward to it.”
