After the divorce, I trained my dog, and the scumbag father and son knelt down at my door.

Narrowing his eyes, Zhuo Yuchen's cold gaze swept over each of the servants, and he asked in a deep voice, "Which of you gave him anything to eat?"

The servants looked at each other, not daring to even breathe loudly.

A few seconds later, a maid emerged shakily from the crowd and stammered, "That gentleman... an hour ago, that person drank a large glass of water."

"Miss Yan asked me to pour it."

"After entering the room, I personally handed the water to Miss Yan."

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at Yan Niannian.

The expression is complex.

Zhuo Yuchen frowned.

Yan Niannian was stunned for a moment.

She sensed something was wrong, and vaguely smelled a conspiracy.

only……

Before I could even think about it, the short-haired girl suddenly went crazy again.

She rushed over with a ferocious expression, and with all her might, shoved Yan Niannian hard, "Why did you have to be so cruel? Why?"

Caught completely off guard, Yan Niannian was pushed so hard that she lost her balance and fell backward.

"careful!"

At the critical moment, Zhuo Yuchen reached out and helped her without hesitation.

By leaning against Zhuo Yuchen, Yan Niannian managed not to fall.

Seeing this, Xu Fei was so angry she almost cried.

Clutching the wound on her arm, she lowered her head slightly, her teeth grinding together.

Jealousy welled up inside me.

Without comparison, there is no harm.

When she was about to fall, Zhuo Yuchen remained unmoved.

Now that Yan Niannian is about to fall, he gets so nervous; the more subconscious his reaction, the more real it seems.

Hateful!

She underestimated Yan Niannian, that bitch.

But...

Thinking about what was about to happen, Xu Fei curled her lips and her mood immediately calmed down.

After regaining her footing, Yan Niannian took a step to the side, creating distance between herself and Zhuo Yuchen. She coldly questioned the short-haired girl, "Why did you hurt someone?"

The short-haired girl trembled.

She stared intently at Yan Niannian, looking utterly grief-stricken.

"Yan Niannian, you are not human."

"Let me tell you the truth! The whole disfigurement drama was orchestrated by this woman herself, just so she could make you, Mr. Zhuo, pity her and care about her."

"But what she didn't expect was that she was arrested before my brother could even run away."

"In her panic, she brought me here and used me to threaten my brother, making him frame Miss Xu for everything."

"But this vicious woman is worried that with your relationship with Miss Xu and Mr. Zhuo, you won't pursue the matter too much, so she turns around and uses my brother to threaten me."

"I crippled Miss Xu."

"But I never expected... I never expected..."

The short-haired girl broke down in tears, saying, "She was so vicious, attacking my brother and trying to kill him to silence him."

"Yan Niannian, you'll die a horrible death!" the short-haired girl screamed at Yan Niannian.

"Miss Yan, how could you do this? If you have a problem with me, just come at me. Why hurt an innocent person? That was a living, breathing life!"

Xu Fei jumped out again at just the right moment.

She would naturally not let go of an opportunity like this, which allowed her to kick Yan Niannian when she was down and take the chance to ruthlessly criticize her, thus showing off her own kindness and magnanimity.

Now, the way everyone looked at Yan Niannian changed.

Shock mixed with disgust.

She had been in the Zhuo family for several years, yet they hadn't discovered how vicious and scheming Yan Niannian was.

It's really terrible.

Zhuo Yuchen frowned.

He gave Yan Niannian a deep look, his gaze profound and complex, yet also tinged with seriousness.

The man's sister testified against him.

Yan Niannian brought the person in.

The water was also prepared by Yan Niannian, who had the best chance of adding hydrogen chloride.

So much evidence...

He had no choice but to believe it.

Suddenly becoming the target of public criticism, Yan Niannian stood stiffly in place.

Feeling top-heavy and lightheaded, the fingers tucked to one side of my body were slightly curled up, and even though they were hidden in my sleeves, they were still terribly cold.

Just like her sorrowful mood at this moment...

It has no warmth whatsoever.

It feels stuffy, like I can't breathe.

She suffered so much injustice when she was with the Zhuo family, but why does she still feel so helpless even after she has left?

At this moment, an endless sorrow welled up inside me, like a flood bursting its banks and surging forth in overwhelming waves.

Yan Niannian subconsciously turned her head and mechanically looked at Xu Fei.

Xu Fei gave a half-smile.

Their eyes met, and her gaze revealed a defiant light, her expression smug.

Seeing this, Yan Niannian bit her lip tightly.

As the pain struck, Yan Niannian calmed down instead.

Good will never prevail over evil.

She won't let it go.

I will definitely find evidence to clear my name.

"Zhuo Yuchen, I didn't do it. Whether you believe me or not, I will definitely find evidence."

After speaking in a low, hoarse voice, Yan Niannian turned to leave.

Unexpectedly, Zhuo Yuchen spoke up without any room for argument, "Yan Niannian, you can't leave."

"What do you mean?" Yan Niannian paused, turned her head, and looked at Zhuo Yuchen with an ambiguous expression.

I wanted to read something from his face.

Unfortunately……

Zhuo Yuchen was always inscrutable, and the only thing Yan Niannian could detect was his indifference, just like before.

“You cannot leave until this matter is resolved.” After saying that, Zhuo Yuchen looked at the butler and said, “Please invite Miss Yan upstairs to rest.”

"She is not allowed to leave the room."

"Yes!"

Having received the instructions, the butler stepped forward and approached Yan Niannian, gesturing for her to enter. "Miss Yan, please!"

At that moment, Yan Niannian felt her mind explode with a "buzz".

She looked at Zhuo Yuchen with anger and disappointment. "Zhuo Yuchen, what right do you have to lock me up and restrict my personal freedom?"

"Just because of Xu Fei, that drama queen, you want to stand up for her?"

A hint of helplessness welled up in the depths of Zhuo Yuchen's eyes.

Unfortunately……

They disappeared too quickly.

No one could detect it.

He did this not for Xu Fei, but to protect her!

He'll protect her in his own way!

Otherwise, she would definitely face imprisonment for doing such a thing.

However, Zhuo Yuchen never bothered to explain.

His silence was directly misinterpreted by everyone as tacit agreement.

Xu Fei lowered her head, but the corners of her lips couldn't help but turn up.

I feel happy.

She knew that she had always been very important to Zhuo Yuchen.

He will definitely choose to believe her.

"Ah!"

Yan Niannian gave a mocking sneer and couldn't help but shake her head.

When her gaze fell on Zhuo Yuchen again, a deep sense of disgust and hatred surfaced.

She gritted her teeth and said each word slowly and deliberately, "Zhuo Yuchen, don't be so arrogant. We have nothing to do with each other anymore."

"Why don't you call the police and have me arrested?"

"Otherwise, it's none of your business where I go, and you have no right to interfere."

Zhuo Yuchen's pupils narrowed.

Yan Niannian's words, "We have nothing to do with each other anymore," infuriated him.

He glanced at the butler with a stern face and questioned him unhappily, "Don't you understand what I'm saying? Or do you want to quit?"
