“I’m going to see Xu Qianjin.” Qin Shu pushed open the car door and stepped out with President Ba in her arms.
Qin Shu thought of something as she got out of the car and asked Shi Yan, “Where are Xu Qianjin’s clothes and the so-called evidence gathered by the hospital?”
Although the police were already involved in the investigation, the parties implicated possessed considerable social standing, which slowed the process.
“Captain Liu is in charge of the case.” Shi Yan replied.
Learning who was handling the case, Qin Shu sought clarification, “Did they perform a breathalyzer test on my husband when he woke up?”
Shi Yan shook his head. “…No.”
… It was probably negligence. The police might have been led to believe the case was a clear-cut case of drunken assault. Qin Shu felt that as long as they investigated the matter properly, Fu Tingyu would prove his innocence beyond all doubt.
Why the police never thought to make her husband take a breathalyzer test was beyond her.
Qin Shu frowned, creases marring her beautiful features. Since the incident, a day had passed; it was useless to conduct a breathalyzer test on her husband now.
She closed the car door and left.
Startled, Shi Yan failed to react for several seconds. Did not Madam Xu forbid the Young Madam from seeing Xu Qianjin? The Young Madam, she…
Seeing Qin Shu walking towards the Xu family’s villa, he reacted. “A-are you planning to climb over the wall, Young Madam Fu?”
Ye Luo glanced at Qin Shu. He had already guessed what she was planning to do. In the time it took for Shi Yan to react, Ye Luo had gotten out of the car.
Shi Yan asked him, “Where are you going?”
“To investigate the matter between Xu Qianjin and her fiancé.” Ye Luo replied, excusing himself immediately after.
Shi Yan was not privy to the conversation between Qin Shu and Madam Xu, so he was out of the loop and floundering for information.
How did the matter relate to Xu Qianjin’s fiancé?
Qin Shu did not permit him to escort her. Helpless, he could only sit in the car and pray for the Young Madam’s safe return.
At this time, he received a call from the Young Master.
“Sir, what are your orders?”
“Isn’t my wife with you?” Fu Tingyu leaned against the balcony’s railing, staring emotionlessly at the bustling streets of North Star. There was an emptiness to his heart – his mind, a still well. Even though she was angry, not once did she question his fidelity. The unspoken word is often more terrifying than the spoken, and it worried him.
“Madam Xu didn’t grant the Young Madam an audience with Xu Qianjin. She’s gone back to sneak in herself…”
Fu Tingyu’s grip on his phone tightened. He did not expect the lengths his wife would take to see Xu Qianjin. He pursed his lips. “Did she say anything else?”
“She asked who had the evidence and whether the police insisted on a breathalyzer test.”
Fu Tingyu’s eyes froze. A breathalyzer test should have been the first thing he did when he woke up. Unfortunately, he had been so busy that he neglected to take one.
He had not drunk much the previous night; he was sure of it. Yet, he felt the dizziness that often accompanied excessive drinking, as if he really was drunk.
More than a day had passed since then. His window of opportunity had closed.
–
It was a moonless night, and a strong wind blew.
Qin Shu looked up at the three-meter-high wall in front of her. Several other villas were nearby, which was not surprising since they were in an upscale part of town. The Xu Family villa was quite large, featuring an outdoor pool and garden.
She eyed President Ba, who was lounging in her arms, fondly. Rubbing his head, she murmured, “I’ll send you in first.”
President Ba’s dark green eyes lit up.
A smile tugged at her lips as she hoisted President Ba over the wall. President Ba was not a very large cat. He drew a beautiful arc in the air, landing nimbly on all fours.
Qin Shu climbed over the wall once President Ba was safely over the perimeter. Scaling a paltry three metres was an easy feat for her.
Before sneaking into the Xu Family compound, Qin Shu had obtained a list of its occupants from Shi Yan.
Xu Zixuan, the eldest son of the Xu Family, was already married and had moved out.
The second son, Xu Zishen, and the youngest daughter, Xu Ziyin, were unmarried and living with Madam Xu and her husband.
A quick search was enough to locate Xu Ziyin’s room. Qin Shu had researched every occupant’s preferences and whose room would be the easiest to find.
Qin Shu quietly skirted around the Xu Family villa, avoiding the patrols. When she found Xu Ziyin’s room, she climbed onto the balcony.
President Ba clung onto Qin Shu’s hat, his two front claws digging into the fabric to prevent himself from falling.
The lights in Xu Ziyin’s room were still on. She was the typical princess of the family. She had never learned martial arts. Few would be able to detect Qin Shu’s presence on the balcony, let alone an ordinary girl with no training whatsoever.
Qin Shu peeked into the room and saw a woman on the bed with her arms wrapped around her knees. It looked like she was on her phone.
Xu Ziyin’s grey coffee-coloured hair fell on her thin shoulders in fluffy curls, contrasting with her skin as white as snow. Qin Shu could not discern her features clearly with her head bowed, though she was, unmistakably, a beauty. An orange nightgown was the only piece of clothing she wore.
Qin Shu was almost certain the woman was Xu Ziyin, the youngest daughter of the Xu Family.
As Madam Xu had said, Xu Ziyin looked depressed. The negative bundle of emotion radiating off of her could not have been clearer. Only someone who has suffered great wrongs would curl up into a ball like Xu Ziyin.
It was an instinctive reaction, reflexive of a mental breakdown.
She was currently staring at her phone, and no one knew what she was looking at.
Qin Shu stood on the balcony and waited for half an hour. During this half an hour, Xu Ziyin, who was on the bed, maintained her sitting position and did not move at all.
Xu Ziyin maintained her sitting position for a long time before she suddenly started crying in a muffled voice. Her thin shoulders were trembling as she tried her best to suppress it.
To witness a stifled cry was more heartbreaking than seeing a wailing banshee.
Qin Shu felt pity for Xu Ziyin when she saw her like this. She felt sorry.
She felt.
President Ba quietly stayed in his hoodie. He felt that he was not used and was a little unhappy.
After getting back into the car, Qin Shu closed the car door and said to Shi Yan, “Go and look at the evidence.”
Shi Yan wanted to say that it was already very late, but when he saw Qin Shu in the rearview mirror. He knew he had no other choice but to drive to the police station.
When he arrived, Shi Yan first communicated with Captain Liu for a while and explained his purpose of coming.
Captain Liu glanced at Qin Shu and nodded.
Then, Qin Shu carried President Ba inside.
Captain Liu placed the physical evidence in front of Qin Shu. It was Xu Ziyin’s clothes and the results of the doctor’s examination.
Qin Shu looked at the torn clothes. It was a white evening gown with some dirt on it.
She looked at the results of the doctor’s examination. It was written clearly that Xu Ziyin had indeed been violated, but no evidence was left behind.
Shi Yan stood at the side and looked up at Qin Shu. Seeing her calm expression, his heart could not help but beat faster. Would he suspect the Fourth Young Master just because of this examination result?
Just as Shi Yan was worried, he saw Qin Shu carrying President Ba as she turned around and walked out.
He was stunned for a moment and quickly followed her. He took the lead to the front of the car, opened the car door and let her in. Then, he followed her into the car.
Before getting into the car, he didn’t say a word.
After getting into the car, Shi Yan didn’t ask, “Did Young Madam Fu discover something?”
“We’ll talk about it tomorrow.” Qin Shu only felt a little tired. She had not rested or drunk anything since getting off the plane. Her throat was so dry that it felt a little uncomfortable.
Shi Yan saw how tired Qin Shu looked, so he did not ask any more questions.. He drove straight back to the hotel.
