“Miss Lin, why isn’t Mr. Lu here yet?”
“I’ll call him to hurry him up.”
Lin Wanwan used the excuse that Lu Zhanbei was helping her buy an anniversary present and forcefully dragged it out for more than half an hour.
She was a little tired.
In order to stall for time, she really racked her brains.
When the investigator impatiently asked again, Lin Wanwan pretended to make a call.
Suddenly, she burst into tears.
“What? Lu Zhanbei got into a car accident? where is he now? I’m coming over right now!”
She hung up the phone and explained to the investigator with tears all over her face, “I’m sorry. Lu Zhanbei got injured in a car accident. I have to go to the hospital to see him right away. Excuse me.”
“We’ll go with you.”
“Forget it. He’s currently unconscious. Even if you guys go, you won’t be able to get anything out of him. Why don’t we wait until he wakes up…”
“Enough!”
Finally, after waiting from morning until two in the afternoon, the few investigators who were growling with hunger lost their patience and interrupted Lin Wanwan’s sincere performance.
“You don’t have to put on an act in front of us. Lu Zhanbei must have escaped from Xia country without permission!”
Another person echoed, “I’ll immediately apply for a wanted order from the higher-ups!”
Lin Wanwan smiled coldly. “Without evidence, what makes you think that Lu Zhanbei has already absconded?”
An investigator laughed. “To tell you the truth, we already have evidence of Lu Zhanbei’s crime. This is just a routine interrogation. If he can’t prove his innocence, he will be put on trial tomorrow!”
“Yes, he must have known that he was exposed and absconded!”
“If you dare to stop us again, we have the right to detain you together!”
The few of them were aggressive. Lin Wanwan could not help but clench her fists.
Xia Dongsi’s heart thumped. Lin Wanwan was so insistent. Could it be that Lu Zhanbei really escaped?
After a long time, she smiled gently. “Alright, I’ll bring you to see Lu Zhanbei.”
She would contact Gu mo secretly later and ask him to create a traffic accident to stop these few people. It would be best if they were injured and lost their mobility.
The investigator took out a pair of handcuffs. “Please put this on.”
“I didn’t commit a crime. You guys have no right to do this!”
Facing Lin Wanwan’s angry gaze, the few of them were unmoved, “Miss Lin, we have really had enough of your various tricks. We also have reason to suspect that you will obstruct our actions. Please rest assured that as long as we see Mr. Lu, we will let you go.”
Xia Dongsi was helpless.
As a citizen of Xia Country, of course he would stand on Lin Wanwan’s side. However, her previous delay was too obvious, and it was not good for him to help.
Lin Wanwan weighed the pros and cons and stretched out her hands.
Just as the handcuffs were about to be handcuffed to Lin Wanwan’s wrist, a cold voice was heard. “Everyone, it’s very impolite for the guest to treat the host like this.”
Lin Wanwan’s body stiffened and she immediately turned around.
The man in the bathrobe slowly walked down. His wet black hair was still dripping.
“Lu Zhanbei!”
After being stunned for a full two to three seconds, Lin Wanwan pounced over. All her worries and anxieties disappeared in an instant.
Lu Zhanbei spread his long arms and hugged her in his arms.
“You’re finally back…”
Hearing Lin Wanwan’s slightly choked voice, Lu Zhanbei’s heart felt as if it had been punched. It was dull and painful.
“Don’t be afraid.”
When Lin Wanwan calmed down, she immediately smelled the smell of blood on his body. She also saw that there was a huge bruise on his forehead.
“Are you injured?”
“How can I not be injured in a car accident?”
”…”it seemed that he had heard her nonsense.
