Shen Luo’an words made Li Jinnan’s eyes darken. “What do you mean?” he asked.
“Back then, he couldn’t get along with Guan Queye’s mother,” Shen Luo’an said. “During one of their fights, he drove off in a huff and got into a car accident. The car exploded. When everyone thought that he was dead, Guan Queye’s mother committed suicide to follow him. However, the very night that her mother died, he returned.
Li Jinnan couldn’t bring himself to believe the story.
Shen Luo’an saw his expression and softly continued, “Later on, although he looked like he was in despair, in wasn’t long before he started dating again. He got himself involved with a woman who was already married. After having that woman divorce her husband, he married her. That woman was Ye Youyou’s mother, Ye Tian.”
Li Jinnan had heard the stories about Ye Tian and the family. He nodded his head, completely unsurprised.
“He never responded to the rumors that surfaced back then, but many people were wondering if he had orchestrated the whole thing on his own to force his wife to die.” Shen Luo’an’s voice slowly trailed off as he paused for a moment. “At the end of the day, there wasn’t any evidence. Can I have some water?”
At the sudden change in topic, Li Jinnan glared at him none too politely, but he still got up to head into the kitchen. He passed him a bottle of spring water and asked, “Hence, you suspect that Guan Queye isn’t really dead and this whole act is just to get rid of Ye Youyou?”
“Yes,” Shen Luo’an said.
“What were you talking about when you said you were here to turn yourself in?” Li Jinnan asked.
“This whole matter started because of me. I am guilty and unpardonable for the state that Ye Youyou and Guan Queye are in today.” Shen Luo’an looked at Li Jinnan. “I let her down. I will help you with this case. As long as we can find evidence that Guan Queye is still alive, this case will have a turning point.”
“Guan Queye’s funeral is taking place in a few days. Her cremation is this afternoon. Right now, all the evidence is pointing toward Ye Youyou, and you’re telling me this?” While Li Jinnan found it unbelievable, he knew how powerless he was regarding this matter, “Guan Yanhong will not sit back and watch. If you’re going to do something, you’d better hurry. Otherwise, I’ll make sure your life becomes a living hell.”
Shen Luo’an chuckled. “A living hell? If Ye Youyou gets sentenced to death, my life will be a living hell without your interference. You don’t have to worry about that.”
With that, Shen Luo’an opened the bottle and took a sip of water. He said, “I believe Ye Youyou would never do something like that. She doesn’t have to guts to, but Guan Queye does.”
“Tch… what bullsh*t,” Ji Linnan said. “You didn’t even believe her back then, so why would you believe her now? Were you sent by Guan Yanhong to spy on me?”
“What happened back then…” Shen Luo’an paused before saying, “I actually believed Ye Youyou because I knew that she wasn’t capable of doing something like that. But, I was young then and easily influenced. Everyone blamed her for it. You should know well that when it comes to matters like public opinion, once it’s been repeated often enough, it slowly becomes fact.”
“Excuses! What made you change your mind now?” Ji Linnan asked.
Shen Luo’an laughed bitterly. “I spoke to Guan Queye’s psychiatrist lately and saw her medical history.”
Li Jinnan was stunned. “What?”
“She’s been undergoing psychotherapy for the past few years,” Shen Luo’an said. “She has a very destructive mindset toward her surroundings and a strong sense of enmity toward everything around her. In particular, she bears a very strong hatred toward Ye Youyou. In her audio recording, she said that she was going to destroy her.”
