Lu Ning sat in the car, looking at the scenery outside the window: "What secrets do you think I could be hiding? I'm just a pitiful, helpless woman raising a child."

How proud can I be? I'm utterly vulnerable, okay?

Ji Chiqian frowned: "I'm not joking with you."

"I'm not kidding either."

Lu Ning looked at Ji Chiqian: "I have no secrets, only scars all over my body and a shameful past."

"Your unbearable past? Tell me about it."

Ji Chiqian simply couldn't believe she had any shameful past. Her arrogant and domineering manner clearly showed that she was spoiled by her family.

Lu Ning thought for a moment: "Does being deceived by a man and suffering so much pain and having two children count? Besides, I had no ability to resist back then and was bullied terribly."

"You're hiding who it is, and I'm starting to suspect you're lying."

"Whether I'm lying or not, you'll soon find out. As for what Gu Zhentian said earlier, I can only say that I've encountered similar situations abroad and know what they're doing. I used that to fool Gu Zhentian back then, and I didn't expect him to actually believe it."

Ji Chiqian thought to himself, "But Gu Zhentian said you poisoned him."

"You actually believe that? I just made up a reason, and who knew it would accidentally match his illness. It only shows that this old bastard Gu Zhentian is very afraid of death."

When Lu Ning said this, her eyes were cold.

She had no way to get to those places abroad.

But here, she would definitely take the opportunity to get rid of these beasts.

Ji Chiqian thought for a moment and didn't say much: "When we go to the police station later, do as Su Jingbai said. He has been investigating Gu Zhentian all these years and secretly collecting evidence."

"That aloof lawyer, who seemed so cold, is actually a good person? Why would he do that?"

"Because there were too many girls who were murdered, many of their parents came to Su Jingbai, which is why he secretly investigated."

Ji Chiqian had also heard about this matter, but that old beast Gu Zhentian mostly lived abroad and only recently returned.

So catching this old beast won't be easy.

Lu Ning smiled and said, "Then would you say I've done a great service?"

Ji Chiqian smiled faintly: "I suppose so."

He glanced at the woman beside him. Although he knew she wasn't entirely telling the truth, he knew she wasn't on Gu Zhentian's side, and that was enough.

As for her secrets, he would naturally investigate them thoroughly.

The vehicle arrived at the police station quickly.

Lu Ning got out of the car and went inside, and Su Jingbai walked to her side.

Su Jingbai said coldly, "Just say what you told us before, don't say anything else, understand?"

Su Jingbai also knew that Lu Ning wasn't telling the truth.

But those words are enough.

With Miss Lu as a witness, Gu Zhentian, that old beast, is doomed this time.

Lu Ning nodded: "I know, but I heard you represent those bullied girls in court for free. I didn't expect you to have such a conscience. I never would have guessed."

Su Jingbai felt that these words didn't sound like a compliment.

He looked at Lu Ning: "Miss Lu, why do you think I'm heartless?"

"Because you're decked out in designer brands, you look like an elite lawyer, more like a lawyer who works for the wealthy."

"Judging by appearance, Miss Lu, are you that shallow?"

Lu Ning retorted, "But Attorney Su, you weren't very friendly to me from the start. Wasn't it because my face resembles some of your old friends that you disliked me?"

Su Jingbai froze in his tracks: "Did Ji Chiqian tell you that?"

“He’s not that gossipy, nor is he that kind to explain so much. I’m not stupid. I know I look like Ji Chiqian’s ex-girlfriend. You’re probably friends with her, right?”

Lu Ning suddenly felt a little envious of her ex-girlfriend.

She has so many friends who all think of her.

Su Jingbai's expression changed slightly: "Yes, we are indeed friends. Alright, now let's get down to business. Your testimony will determine whether that old bastard can be sent to jail."

Lu Ning nodded: "I know, I want that old beast to be punished more than anyone else."

After Lu Ning entered the police station, she was taken in for questioning.

When she mentioned her conflict with Gu Zhentian, she cried and choked up as she recounted how Gu Zhentian coerced and lured her abroad, and how he forced her to sleep with him in China.

Lu Ning choked up several times as she recounted these events.

When Lu Ning finally came out of the interrogation room, her eyes were red.

But her mood improved.

When Lu Ning came out, she saw many middle-aged couples crying and talking to the police.

She walked up to Su Jingbai and asked, "Who are these people?"

“They are all the victim girl’s parents. After learning about this, they all came to testify.”

Su Jingbai's expression improved considerably; after all, he had worked so hard for so long, and finally, he had achieved results.

As Su Jingbai and Lu Ning walked out of the police station, the parents of the victims ran over.

"Attorney Su, thank you for your continued efforts in getting this beast imprisoned."

"Yes, Attorney Su, if it weren't for your encouragement, my daughter probably wouldn't have survived. She only persisted until now because she wanted to see this old beast pay the price."

"Thank you, Attorney Su. May you live a long and peaceful life."

Lu Ning stood to the side watching, and thought to herself, "Tsk tsk, I didn't expect this lawyer Su to be a cold-faced but warm-hearted person."

After finally seeing off the victim's parents, Su Jingbai walked up to Lu Ning and asked, "Have you had enough of the show?"

"Have you seen enough?"

Lu Ning looked at Su Jingbai: "What are you planning to do next? After all, Gu Zhentian's death is such a big deal, the Gu family won't let this go easily, will they?"

"The evidence is irrefutable; he can't escape this time."

At this moment, Ji Chiqian walked over and said, "It's getting late, we should head back now."

"Yes, my daughter is still waiting at home."

Lu Ning looked at Su Jingbai: "Let's exchange contact information. I'll probably need to contact Attorney Su more often regarding the case later."

"can."

Lu Ning added Su Jingbai on WeChat.

Ji Chiqian watched from the side, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable.

I feel like I get along well with this woman.

Ji Chiqian helped Lu Ning into the car and looked at her, saying, "Stay away from Su Jingbai."

“I think Attorney Su is great. He’s handsome, capable, and kind. He perfectly fits my daughter’s criteria.”

Ji Chiqian had a bad feeling: "What are your standards for your daughter?"

"Of course, it's the standard for fathers."

Lu Ning looked at Ji Chiqian: "You don't know, do you? Xiao Xingyue has very high standards for my future husband, who is also her father."

Ji Chiqian pursed his thin lips: "How does Su Jingbai meet the criteria?"

I'm a little unwilling to accept this.
