On the flower vase fragments that injured Chen Ming, there were fingerprints.

Now that technology has developed rapidly, fingerprints would never be hidden. Xin Ai bit her lower lip, tightened her fist, she … was too careless that she didn’t consider things like this.

What should she do next?

The police officer who was recording the confession called another police officer and asked him, “Has the identification of the physical evidence come out yet?”

“It’s done, there are only two fingerprints in the mouth of the flower vase and several pieces of broken porcelain. One of them is the fingerprint of the hotel sanitation officer, the other is the fingerprints of Xin Ai.”

The police nodded and held the results of the fingerprint examination to her. Seeing the look in her eyes changed slightly, the policeman began to doubt the credibility of her earlier confession.

“How do you explain this fingerprint?”

Xin Ai’s brain is spinning rapidly, fingerprint reports are out, there is no way to deny it.

It’s impossible to deny it, so she could only admit it.

Xin Ai’s eyes were red and swollen, she sobbed and her voice was slightly hoarse, “Right, at the banquet I did meet with Chen Ming. I also hit his head with a flower vase. I admit this, but … do I have to let him strong-arm me without fighting back?”

The police frowned, “Why didn’t you say it earlier?”

Xin Ai looked up and looked at the person, “Police officer, do you have an older sister or younger sister?”

The policeman was stunned, not expecting that this woman would ask that.

Xin Ai smiled bitterly, “Please ask them after work… if they were almost raped by someone, would they such a thing? Do you know how much courage is needed when a woman says that she violated?”

The police was silent for a moment, “Chen Ming said that you tied him up and threatened him, is that right?”

Xin Ai shook her head, “I don’t know, after hitting his head with a flower vase, I was very scared and hurriedly ran out. Things that happened after that, I don’t know … There might be someone who wasn’t happy to see something like that and helped me give him lessons. I’m sure, trash like this has other enemies.”

To reveal the truth, the police must complete three aspects; confession from witnesses, evidence, and confession from the perpetrators.

Apart from Lu Jingcheng, no one else saw them. Chen Ming also did not have any other supporting evidence.

As long as Xin Ai doesn’t confess, the police would not be able to arrest her using only fingerprints. At most, they can only ask for her to give compensation.

Chen Ming saw that Xin Ai still refused to confess after seeing the fingerprint report, his voice began to change, “Nonsense, everything is done by her, she almost killed me… she has the intention to kill …”

Xin Ai begged the police, “Can I call someone? Call my boyfriend …”

If the police continue to conduct further investigations, the problem last night would be revealed sooner or later. The Xin Huan case can’t be postponed, she has to leave immediately.

At this moment, the only person Xin Ai was sure could help her get out of this problem was Jian Zechuan.

This was a trivial matter for Jian Zechuan, but for Xin Ai, it was as difficult as a trip to heaven.

Jian Si was reporting on Jian Zechuan’s schedule for the next two days when his cellphone suddenly rang. Upon seeing Xin Ai’s name on the caller’s screen, Jian Si immediately turned off the phone. But, once turned off, his cell phone rang again. Repeatedly several times, Xin Ai looked so adamant, as if she wanted to blow up his cellphone.

Jian Zechuan looked up, “What’s the matter?”

While working, Jian Zechuan wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. The cold, dark eyes are hidden behind the lens of the glasses, making them look more intellectual and polite. However, how someone sat can cause the aura of the man become even more mysterious.

Jian Si slowly handed the cellphone to Jian Zechuan, “Sanye, a call from Miss Xin Ai … try … to see …”

Jian Zechuan didn’t say anything, didn’t say ‘don’t answer’, his eyes swept over the series of numbers above the cellphone screen.

Jian Si tried to interpret the intentions of Jian Zechuan. If Sanye didn’t want to pick up the phone, maybe he wouldn’t even look at it at a glance. From the beginning, he would not show tolerance like this.

Therefore … after Jian Si tried to guess with courage, Jian Si put the cellphone on the table and answered the phone in speaker mode.

However, very quickly, Jian Si regretted it.

Xin Ai’s voice floated out with a strong raspy voice, “Si ge, I was at the Police Station, they accused me of beating someone. The other party also accused me and said that I wanted to kill him. The police wanted to arrest me, but I was slandered. How can a little girl like me kill someone? Si ge, I can’t find anyone who can help me, can you help me get out of here. I didn’t dare look for Sanye, I knew he would not care about me. I can only ask for help from you … I’m afraid, I don’t want to be jailed … Si ge, can you come and help me, please?”

The voice was so soft and harsh, trembling and helpless, it sounded like she’d been crying.

Listening to just a voice like this, Jian Si could imagine Xin Ai’s current appearance, crying while curled up and frightened. The voice was indeed thrilling, he could not wait to bring the girl into his arms. Seeing her so helpless, it felt like to hold her hand tightly and protect her from any danger.

Of course, Jian Si knew how deceiving Xin Ai was. She only pretended to be pathetic, attracted sympathy and make Jian Si come to her aid.

Jian Si secretly looked at Jian Zechuan’s expression, but he didn’t dare look up because he felt the temperature in this office was getting lower and lower. Jian Si really wanted to ask Xin Ai not to speak anymore. He will immediately go help her, as long as you don’t call him ‘Si ge‘ anymore, can she?

Every time Xin Ai called him ‘Si ge‘, Jian Si’s neck felt tight.

A transparently-white hand picked up the cellphone and pointed it at Jian Si, which meant telling Jian Si to speak.

“Well … I … cough, I already know … I need to hang up now.”

Jian Si immediately hung up, his tongue felt tight.

“Sanye, please look at it …”

Jian Zechuan gently tapped on the table, his thin lips said in a low voice, “Si ge? It looks like you two have a close relationship, isn’t it bad if you don’t leave soon?”

Jian Si’s knees squeezed, “Sanye, me … me and Miss Xin don’t … we don’t have anything to do …”

“Still not going?”

Jian Zechuan’s cold gaze from behind the lens of his glasses swept, his tone suddenly changed. Jian Si felt as if he was attacked by thousands of arrows on his body.

“I …” Jian Si felt that he had really been harmed by Xin Ai.

Within a second, Jian Si believed that Sanye was staring at him like he was seeing someone who had been found cheating, but he had actually been slandered.

Once out of the door, Jian Si swore, if he met with Xin Ai, he would tell him not to talk carelessly anymore.

However, why does Sanye seem to be jealous of him because of this trouble-making little girl?

……

After making that phone call, Xin Ai’s mood became complicated. Xin Ai doesn’t have Jian Zechuan’s cellphone number, she only has Jian Si number. Xin Ai was sure, telling Jian Si was the same as telling his master.

But, whether Jian Zechuan would come to pick her up or not, Xin Ai had no idea.

This phone call is her last straw. If that man really doesn’t come, Xin Ai will be destroyed.

The only thing Xin Ai can do right now is to wait.

But Xin Ai also understood that this was serving no useful purpose.

Men like Jian Zechuan, how might they help her?

The next question from the police, no matter what, Xin Ai kept shaking her head, “I don’t know, I don’t know anything …”

Xin Ai refused to cooperate, refused to answer other questions.

Chen Ming said sarcastically, “Still want to get out, let this master, tell you. Once you come here, don’t expect to get out. This time I will make you go to prison and stay in it until you die. There will be no one who can help you.”x
