365-Day Trial Marriage With Hunk: Wife's A Little Wild-Chapter 235 - : Where Did It Go Wrong?

Chapter 235: Chapter 235: Where Did It Go Wrong?

“She confessed and even offended you. It seems you wanted her to stick to her story, to solidify your guilt and send you to prison.”

Is that what she meant?

What puzzled her was that Meng Ziqi confessed under the coercion of Dan Hanjie, but what she recreated was the real crime scene.

Such repeated confessions, could Jin Chenye really have harbored no doubts?

If he harbored even a sliver of suspicion, he wouldn’t have so insistently blamed her for hurting Jin Lan.

Where did things go wrong…

“Still thinking?” Dan Hanjie’s brow furrowed, holding her face unhappily.

Unusually, Qin Youxuan didn’t bat away his hand, but retreated a bit, tilting her head in confusion.

“No, you forget, I told you before – I saw with my own eyes that Jin Lan was acting off that day. She’s hated me for longer than I’ve hated her yet I refrained from attacking her, she wouldn’t randomly want to strangle me barehanded…”

The more Qin Youxuan thought, the more it felt wrong.

“Dan Hanjie, the person who acted most suspiciously those few days wasn’t Jin Lan, it was Meng Ziqi! She seemed to know that something was going to happen to the Qin family, and kept coming over. She stayed long past the usual time despite both my father and Jin Chenye being out. Usually, when Jin Chenye wasn’t around, she wouldn’t linger. Then that day, when everything unusually lined up just perfect, she was present and became a witness to the incident…”

Qin Youxuan straightened up, looking at Dan Hanjie squarely.

Her face tensed, and she bit her lip before speaking, “I don’t know why, but I have a feeling that this incident has something to do with Meng Ziqi.”

“Is this also your speculation?” Dan Hanjie’s eyes flickered, his thin lips pressed together, and his long finger traced her eyebrows.

His cat, really sharp.

Does this mean she will soon guess that he had a hand in this…

“Of course it’s speculation. If I had evidence, I would have already taken it to the police station.” Qin Youxuan retorted angrily.

She could understand if Jin Lan tried to murder her, they had a long-standing enmity, but if it really was Meng Ziqi, that’d truly be a brutal act!

“Are you finished speculating?” Dan Hanjie raised an eyebrow, “I’m tired.”

Can’t even chat happily.

Qin Youxuan scratched her nose awkwardly, turned to get off the bed.

“I’m not a pillow. You can sleep yourself.”

Before her foot even touched the floor, she was pulled back.

Dan Hanjie bit her face hard, inhaling deeply, “You’re growing a backbone, daring to defy me once let loose.”

“Believe it or not, just a word from me, you’ll get sent back there, hmm?”

Qin Youxuan wilted, letting him hold onto her without making a sound.

Being a pillow is better than sleeping in a police cell.

“Dan Hanjie, can you help me look into Meng Ziqi?”

What answered her was a long breath…

Fell asleep so quickly.

Daylight was just breaking.

“Hmm… ”

Qin Youxuan lazily stretched, yawning comfortably.

Catching sight of the empty spot beside her from the corner of her eye, she blinked and sat bolt upright in bed, her gaze scanning around the room.

As expected, he wasn’t there.

Qin Youxuan turned to glance at the dawning sky, then smacked her lips.

He’s so self-aware, she didn’t have to worry about others discovering him here.

After all, besides the butler, there were no other servants in the Qin Family mansion now.

Qin Youxuan pulled the covers over her, continuing to sleep amidst the peaceful quiet.

Meanwhile, in the backyard of the Qin family.

Two figures stood facing each other in silence for a long while, the intense air pressure around them repelling anyone from approaching.
