“How can I reconcile myself to the fact that the case was closed before the true murderer was found?” Ji Nuan’s voice was indifferent yet straightforward. “Miss Su, I just casually said that I was coming to the police station and if you wanted to see me, you could come to the police station. I didn’t expect you to come so quickly. Shouldn’t you be in Su Xueyi’s home and accompany her parents?”
Noticing the coldness in Ji Nuan’s eyes and the implication of her words, Su Zhilan looked at her incredulously and then smiled casually. “Miss Ji, I remembered it was you who asked them to tell me you were waiting for me at the police station.”
“Is it more important to visit Su Xueyi’s parents or to go to the police station to see me?” Ji Nuan asked indifferently without lifting her eyelids. Her crisp tone conveyed a definite coolness and disdain. “I’m afraid you hardly stayed at Su Xueyi’s home before you came straight to the police station, didn’t you?”
Su Zhilan frowned and stared at Ji Nuan. “Miss Ji, what are you trying to say?”
“Don’t you know what I’m trying to say? Otherwise, why would you come to the police station in such a hurry?” Ji Nuan smiled. “I have already submitted everything that should be submitted to the police. As for the rest, it’s up to you, Miss Su.”
Su Zhilan’s smile grew unnatural. “I don’t understand what you are talking about. Didn’t you call me to the police because the case is closed?”
Not in the mood to see her hypocritical face, Ji Nuan merely said, her eyes cold and a faint smile hovering on her lips, “Miss Su, you’re really good at acting. I had always thought that you were a simple person who was just too affectionate and impulsive. Obviously, Su Xueyi was also deceived by your false appearance and tried her best to defend you.”
Su Zhilan also smiled. “I just found out that you called me to the police station because you wanted to splash dirty water on me after you indirectly caused Xueyi’s death. I had never thought you’d be so mean and vicious. Xueyi died. You should just stay in the hospital and take care of Jingshen. How could you run out of the hospital and pick on us?”
There was a mocking smile on Ji Nuan’s delicate and beautiful face. “Save these words for the police. Tell me, how you will explain to the police the psychotherapeutic drugs you gave Su Xueyi that aggravated her mental and emotional disorder?”
The smile on Su Zhilan’s face gradually faded. She looked at Ji Nuan silently, but her suddenly clenched fingers betrayed how shocked she was.
“Are you surprised how I got the clue from that colorless, odorless drug?” Ji Nuan looked at her with a faint smile. “I really gained a lot out of visiting Su Xueyi’s home today. Miss Su, you may need to explain a lot to the police, for example, before Su Xueyi went to T City, you frequently asked her to drink and complain about your troubles. After that, you gave her many small gifts. After she was transferred to T City by you, you refused to see her after she came back. It wasn’t until those things happened to her, and she became crazy that you began to play the role of a good cousin again.”
“And you can also explain to the police why you took Su Xueyi to watch horror movies or visit ghost houses in the playgrounds after she got crazy although you claimed to take her out for relaxation. You had no intention to help her recover or give her any comfort.”
“Oh, and you can also explain to the police why you suddenly invited her to a party with you that night when she was resting at home with a cold, and why you convinced her to put a fruit knife in her bag although she didn’t want to in the first place. It was you who choose the dress she wore that night, weren’t you? She should wear a size S, but that night, she wore a size M dress. You invited her in such a hurry that she didn’t have the time to change into a dress of the right size.”
“Besides, do you think the purchase record of that modified new BMW can be erased just like the delivery record of the dismembered wedding-dress doll? BMW Group is not a company that you can easily threaten and control. They still keep the record. You told Su Xueyi you would gift her a new car, so the car was registered in her name, but the money was paid with your servant’s credit card. A week later, the same amount of money was transferred from your grandfather’s card into the servant’s credit card, but that card of your grandfather was actually held by you. You made a big turn just to hide the fact that it was you who bought that car.”
Su Zhilan’s face turned paler. She looked calm, but her flickering eyes revealed her real emotions.
Ji Nuan coldly smiled. “The recordings and the evidence I’ve presented are not enough to convict you, but Miss Su, you’re such a likely suspect that the police will definitely follow the evidence to investigate. You thought no one would suspect you?”
Su Zhilan pursed her lips. “What you said is just speculation. I understand that you don’t want my life to be too peaceful, but Xueyi and I were on good terms for many years, and you can’t slander me. If she had been alive, she wouldn’t allow you...”
“If she had been alive, she would have regretted knowing you. How dare you still say this bullshit? Aren’t you afraid that she’ll come back in the middle of the night and kill you to avenge herself?” Ji Nuan was in no mood to argue and quarrel with her. “I advise you not to waste your saliva on me. Just save these words for the police.”
Ji Nuan went on. “The Su family is powerful in Los Angeles, and you may be able to wield your power to silence the police and get away with the law, but unfortunately, the one you messed with is the Mo family. Mo Jingshen hasn’t woken up yet. Even if you want to hide the truth from the masses, you will have to ask the Mo family first.”
With that, Ji Nuan walked past Su Zhilan.
Su Zhilan suddenly stood in her way. “Ji Nuan, you know Jingshen hasn’t woken up yet, and you just had a miscarriage. Can you afford to start a war between the Su family and the Mo family at such a time?”
The word ‘miscarriage’ came out of Su Zhilan’s mouth with a terrible sting to Ji Nuan’s ears.
Feng Ling reached out and pulled Ji Nuan behind her. Su Zhilan glanced at Feng Ling, moved her lips, and in the end, said in a low voice, “Ji Nuan, we’d better not involve other people in the matter between us. My grandfather is getting old, and Jingshen’s parents are on the verge of a breakdown because Jingshen is still unconscious. You don’t have to implicate all of us into this matter.”
Ji Nuan chuckled and suddenly seized Su Zhilan’s hand and pressed it on her stomach. Then she whispered sneeringly in Su Zhilan ear as the latter shuddered at her gesture, “You’re wrong. I’m just avenging my baby.”
