Chapter 75: Teasing Suyang

At that moment, I suddenly realized how calm Suyang truly was. The way he analyzed was different from me. I had the tendency to incorporate my own biases and emotions when coming up with conclusions. Whereas, Suyang used a spectator perspective. He would arrange all the clues before carefully examining them.

“Suyang, were you part of the police department previously?” I asked out of curiosity.

“No, why?” Perhaps he was astonished by my admiring gaze as he lightly coughed twice.

“No, I just feel like the way you organize your thoughts is very professional; just like a detective!” I had both my hands on my chin as I gave him an idolized look.

Suyang proudly smiled, “Have you forgotten who I am? I’m a speculative author!”

“Oh yeah! I’m speechless!” Seeing how Suyang was so full of himself, all my admiration vanished without a trace. All I had left were sarcastic words.

“So who are these people?” I took out the profiles of those I hadn’t seen before. They seemed like random strangers that were passing by. How were they related to the case?

“They are either experts or influential people around this territory.”

“How are they related to this case?”

“They’re Lu Wenxue’s ex students. They must know Lu Wenxue’s character. If they are willing to step out and say a few words for Lu Wenxue, there would be some influence and we may have a chance of success.”

“You want to go against the Jingrui corporation?” I blurted.

“What? Are you afraid?”

I shook my head. “What is there to be afraid of? Those who are the most dangerous are people like myself. Since we have nothing, there’s nothing for us to lose. However, as an author, aren’t you afraid to be blacklisted?”

“Blacklisted? Before you can blacklist me, you better get through Shen Shaoqian. Don’t underestimate him. He has quite a powerful background.”

“I see. No wonder you’re so brave, boss. You have backup, so you can afford to be righteous.” I lightly teased. “But when the incident happened, no one stepped out for Lu Wenxue. What makes you think they will do so now?”

Suyang placed his arm over my shoulder as he solemnly stated, “Goldfish… since you want to take part in this, it is your responsibility to get these three to help us.”

“My responsibility?”

“Convince them to speak up. I believe you can do it!”

“Can you assign me something else? I have never met those three before. I would probably have a better chance of going after him.”

I flaunted Director Rui’s business card in front of Suyang.

“Why do you have Director Rui’s card?”

“I told you. I was present while he was eating with Mi Fan earlier. It was a coincidence, but they thought I was a server from the Jingrui hotel. That’s why I was able to overhear their conversation. Before he left the room, he made a sexual move on me. Then, he gave me his name card. Oh yeah, Director Rui knows of you and warned Mi Fan to watch out for you…. Maybe you shouldn’t meet her anymore.”

I secretly added the last line since it was my wish.

“Sexual move?!” Suyang raised his voice.

Was that the main point?

“Lower your voice! He said I was pretty and he will be waiting for me to contact him at night. I can’t help it. Since I’m such a pretty girl, I’m admired wherever I go. So troublesome….” I batted my eyes and flipped my hair shamelessly.
