"Things have come to this, and you've managed to maintain your delicate persona quite well." Chu Mu said sarcastically.

"Chu Mu! Get out of here now. You are not welcome here, you murderer." Yi Fengteng stood in front of Lin Jiaojiao and pushed Chu Mu away quickly.

"Yi Fengteng!" Yi Yichen held Chu Mu in his arms, his cold gaze terrifying. "Starting tomorrow, you don't have to go to work at Yi's anymore."

"..." Yi Fengteng was stunned and immediately panicked, "Uncle, what do you mean? For such a woman, you even give up our blood relationship. Are you worthy of grandpa and grandma?"

"I will let them investigate Lin Jiaojiao's matter thoroughly." Yi Yichen stared at Lin Jiaojiao with a warning look in his eyes.

Lin Jiaojiao's eyes moved slightly, and her fingers gripping the door frame exerted force silently.

Chu Mu caught this scene with her sharp eyes, but without evidence, everything was in vain. She had no choice but to let it go and follow Yi Yichen out of the hospital.

"Uncle, what you are doing will bring disgrace upon the Yi family." Yi Fengteng said sternly.

Yi Yichen didn't even pause as he slowly returned to the car with Chu Mu in his arms.

"Let me take a look." Yi Yichen gently pinched Chu Mu's chin and checked her injuries.

The five fingerprints were very obvious. Yi Yichen frowned slightly, took out a bag of ice from the car refrigerator, wrapped it in a towel and gently applied it to her fair face. "Does it hurt?"

"Are you asking about the slap or the ice compress?" Chu Mu smiled, his almond-shaped eyes full of tears, and he looked very happy and joyful.

"What do you think?" Seeing that she was still in the mood to joke, Yi Yichen was both angry and amused. "Don't worry about Lin Jiaojiao's affairs. I will handle it."

"Do you believe she was acting in self-defense?" Chu Mu looked up at Yi Yichen. "When you said you would investigate for her, she was obviously panicked."

Yi Yichen's face remained unchanged. He simply said, "The surveillance video showed that she acted in self-defense."

"So, in that case, she can get away with it? Lin Ji is dead, and there's no evidence to prove that Lin Jiaojiao instigated what happened six years ago." Chu Mu was very unhappy. There was no way she would be willing to let Lin Jiaojiao go unpunished.

"I used to only suspect that Lin Jiaojiao was involved in that incident, but now that she knows that you and I have begun investigating this matter, she immediately took care of Lin Ji in self-defense. I am even more certain that she was the one who caused Manman's accident."

Chu Mu said indignantly: "Back then, Manman asked her to call the police, but she chose to go back home instead. Isn't that strange?"

"But we have no evidence." Yi Yichen was very rational.

"Without evidence, can't we make her pay the price? She ruined Manman's life, her entire life. Manman almost died because of her." Chu Mu seemed a little panicked by Lin Ji's sudden death.

"I know how you feel, but don't be anxious." Yi Yichen grabbed her shoulders and tried to look her in the eye.

Chu Mu brushed away her hand on his shoulder and said, "No, you don't know. If you knew, you wouldn't keep telling me about the evidence."

"Then I go kill her? Do you think that's a way to vent your anger?" Yi Yichen asked back, "Mumu, you have to believe that good prevails over evil."

“…” Chu Mu wanted to refute, but he couldn’t utter a word.

Does she believe that good will prevail over evil?

Is it true that good prevails over evil in this world?

"You are tired, take a nap before getting up." Yi Yichen put his arm around her shoulders and held Chu Mu in his arms.
