You’re My Belated Happiness

Chapter 35 Part 3

Seeing that Xu Huaishi was pondering over the menu, Li Shican picked up a stack of papers to hand over to Ruan Yu: “The results of psychological treatment should be kept confidential. But Uncle Cen wants to give you peace of mind, so here you have it.”

Xu Huaishi confusedly raised her head but was interrupted by Li Shican before she could ask any questions: “I have some serious business to talk to Xuejie. Take your time to pick what you would like to eat in a while.”

Ruan Yu said “thanks” to him and started to flip through the papers while listening to Li Shican: “It has been confirmed that she hadn’t hired anyone to hack into your computer. At the time, she accidentally found out that the two novels were quite similar and took the opportunity to kick up a rumpus about it.”

“That’s strange……”

If it had nothing to do with Cen Sisi, then who stole her outlines of the story? Or maybe the outlines were never stolen.

But then what does that imply?

Ruan Yu sat still with her eyebrows tightly knitted.

It seemed that she had the answer in her fingertips yet there was still a piece missing.

Xu Huaishi, after finally understanding what the exchange between Ruan Yu and Li Shican was about, repeatedly tried to say something but stopped herself from uttering anything. When she looked back down on the menu, her good mood was gone.

She hastily ordered a few dishes, then picked up her cell phone to check Weibo.

She was thinking whether she should risk everything by showing Raun Yu her Weibo profile on her cell phone and admit her mistake to Ruan Yu.

However she was afraid that she would be loathed by her future sister-in-law if she did so.

While Xu Huaishi was debating about what she should do, the cell phone in her hand suddenly vibrated. There was a notification of a new Weibo post.

It was the update of the wanted notice from last night. It reported that it had been confirmed that the suspect and the victim were in a relationship and they were driving from Su City to Hang City to visit friends.

Xu Huaishi was shocked when she saw the words “from Su City to Hang City.”

She was saying that Hang City was a dangerous place and it turned out that the suspect was from Su City?

She checked the wanted notice again which came with a picture of the suspect and discovered that the notice did mention the hometown of the suspect. She focused on the picture last night and hadn’t paid much attention to the description.

She read the notice again– –Male, 26, from Su City, about 176 cm high……

The suspect was the same age as her brother and also from Su City. It was very likely she had seen this man before.

She clicked the picture and enlarged it. She looked at it carefully once again.

Ruan Yu noticed Xu Huaishi burying her head in her cell phone checking something with a rather troubled look on her face. She turned her head and asked: “What’s wrong?”

Xu Huaishi pointed at the phone screen and said: “I seem to have seen this person somewhere, but can’t recall……”

Ruan Yu leaned over to look at where Xu Huaishi was pointing: “Hrm? That’s my high school classroom president. Why do you have his picture?”

Xu Huaishi’s mouth dropped open wide: “Ah, then it must be that time when I was looking for your picture among all the graduates at the school archive, I also saw this picture of his!”

Before she enquired why Xu Huaishi would go to the school archive to look for her picture, Ruan Yu asked after a short pause: “So what about this picture?”

Xu Huaishi handed over her cell phone with a shaky hand to let Ruan Yu look at the news.

Ruan Yu glanced over the news and was dumbfounded. She couldn’t speak for quite a while: “How could it be…… We just met not too long ago….. No, he contacted me this morning at 2 am!”

No wonder it wasn’t from Zhou Jun’s own cell phone; he must have been under police surveillance already.

Ruan Yu’s head was in a muddle. Li Shican by now also understood what had happened: “Think back carefully, what did he say to you?”

Ruan Yu took out her cell phone to look for Zhou Jun’s message when she suddenly received a call from a familiar looking number.

Li Shican seemed to have recognized the number as well: “That number looks like it’s from the police station we went to last time. Answer it.”

Ruan Yu picked up the call and heard a voice from the other side saying: “How are you, is this Ms. Ruan?”

“Is this Officer Fang? It’s me.”

“Is it convenient for you to talk now? I have a case here that I need to discuss with you.

Ruan Yu could hear the uncertainty in Fang Zhen’s voice. Ruan Yu guessed that he wanted to talk about Zhou Jun with her but was afraid that Zhou Jun was with her right now.

Ruan Yu answered: “It’s convenient. Are you going to talk about Zhou Jun’s case?”
