Wasn't he working overtime at the company? Why is he following me?

"Jing Yucheng, thank you."

Regardless, he was able to receive a call from a stranger and rush to his rescue.

I never expected him to care about me so much.

She's a socially anxious and eccentric person, but she has a kind heart. There aren't many people who can do that for themselves.

This is a good friend!

"No need. Isn't protecting one's wife a matter of course?"

Ling Yue wondered if she was hallucinating.

Jing Yucheng patiently explained, "I've already signed the marriage certificate."

Ling Yue suddenly slapped her fair and shiny forehead.

How could she have completely forgotten about this? When she signed the marriage certificate, she was thinking of finding an opportunity to talk to Jing Yucheng in person and tell him not to sign it.

If either party fails to sign, the marriage certificate is invalid.

"When? How did you sign it?"

Thinking about it, I can't blame him. I didn't tell him in advance, and whether he signs or not is his own business.

"Don't you have a girlfriend?"

"I signed it less than two minutes after you did. Who told you I had a girlfriend?"

"The boss has been rumored to be having an affair with you. What woman has the ability to be rumored to be having an affair with the boss?"

Was Xiao Jia praising her or scolding her?

None of that matters now. Let's discuss this further after we've finished dealing with Zhang Lei's matter.

"I have something urgent to attend to right now and I have to leave immediately. We can talk about our relationship later."

Ling Yue hurriedly got into the car, only to find Jing Yucheng and Xiao Jia already in her car when she was fastening her seatbelt.

Does this mean they didn't understand what they were saying?

Ling Yue fastened her seatbelt and then loosened it again. She turned around and said with a slightly serious expression, "I really have something to do."

"You need to find the person who killed Zhang Lei, and that person is probably not simple either. Just to be on the safe side, it's safer to bring Xiao Jia along."

Ling Yue had just finished practicing the Bagua Tai Chi Chuan she bought at a "high price" (69 merits) these past two days, which is why she dared to go find the perpetrator alone.

He glanced at Xiao Jia, then at his own thin arms and legs, and realized he was afraid he'd be taken down before he even got a chance to use his Tai Chi.

Jing Yucheng's suggestion is really good.

According to the information provided by Li Sijun, the perpetrator's name is Wang Hao, and he runs a nightclub business.

His father is the deputy director of the Haishi Police Bureau, and can be said to have connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds.

It seems they really are rich and powerful.

According to the information, before Wang Hao killed Zhang Lei while driving under the influence, there had been many similar incidents, which were basically settled with money.

Li Sijun's actions won't affect them anymore, so they're probably trying to kill her to silence her, right?

Even Zhang Lei's remains have become ghosts, why not let them go?

From the moment Ling Yue saw Wang Hao's information, she had already used her tracking skills to know his current location.

In the VIP room on the third floor of the Grand Court Nightclub.

It was late at night, and Ling Yue had a smooth drive, parking her car in front of the Haoting Nightclub building.

I had to get out of the car quickly before Wang Hao left. Just as I was about to enter the lobby, I was stopped by the security guard.

They say it's a membership system, and non-members can't get in.

What kind of high-class place is this, with a membership system? Ling Yue tried everything, even resorting to seduction, but nothing worked; she just couldn't get in.

To everyone's surprise, as soon as Jing Yucheng got out of the car, the security guard was incredibly observant and immediately came forward to greet him.

"Mr. Jing, we didn't know you were here. It was our mistake earlier. Please come in."

So it turns out Jing Yucheng is a regular here?

Upon entering the lobby, you will be greeted directly by the manager.

"Mr. Jing, your private room is ready. Shall we go in now?"

There are even private rooms; this place really is a money pit for these rich people.

"Our boss has made an appointment with Mr. Wang Hao. Could you please show us the way?"

Wow, this little Jia is pretty savvy.

The lobby manager actually led them to Wang Hao's private room, 308.

Upon entering, the room was filled with smoke and fumes, and there were many men and women, some of whom were disheveled, while others had piled up like a human pyramid.

Jing Yucheng quickly covered Ling Yue's eyes.

"What are you doing, Jing Yucheng? I haven't even seen Wang Hao yet!"

Jing Yucheng pulled the person into his arms and drove out of 308.

"Go inside and drag Wang Hao out here, and get dressed!"

Xiao Jia went back into the private room and shouted, "Wang Hao!"

Although Wang Hao was quite drunk, he instinctively answered "Here" when he heard his name called.

Xiao Jia grabbed the person and dragged them out of the private room.

Ling Yue felt nauseous from the smell of alcohol emanating from him.

"Mr. Jing... Mr. Jing? What brings you here?"

Wang Hao had tried to meet Jing Yucheng many times before, but hadn't been able to. Why did he come to him on his own today?

Jing Yucheng took out a handkerchief from his pocket and covered his mouth and nose.

He cut to the chase: "Where's Zhang Lei?"

"What... Zhang Lei?"

"It's Zhang Lei, the one you hit and killed a week ago."

"You mean that person? Wasn't he dead? Why are you looking for him? Oh... I see, you want to see his ghost, right? You Jing family really do have the same hobby! Hahahaha, you like collecting ghosts?"

Wang Hao was hiccuping as he spoke, and Jing Yue couldn't stand it anymore. She snatched the handkerchief from Jing Yucheng's hand and covered her mouth and nose with it.

Collecting ghosts?

Who would have such a perverted fetish?

"Jing Yucheng, what did he mean by that?"

What is your relationship with Jing Yan?

"Hahaha, of course we're good friends! *burp*"

Jing Yucheng pulled Ling Yue away.

Before leaving, he instructed Xiao Jia: "Find a secluded place for him to sober up properly."

"Okay, boss."

The air suddenly felt much fresher.

Only then did Ling Yue realize that she was still holding Jing Yucheng's handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose.

I quickly took it down; it wouldn't be appropriate to return it after using it myself.

Ling Yue put it directly into her pocket, planning to return it to him after washing it, since the fabric was very comfortable and probably quite expensive.

"Jing Yucheng, is Jing Yan your older brother? Just now Wang Hao was saying that Zhang Lei's ghost was kidnapped by your older brother? Where is your older brother now? Let's go find him now."

Faced with Ling Yue's series of questions, Jing Yucheng didn't know how to answer.

“Ling Yue, Jing Yan is extremely cunning. Even if we go to him, he won't admit it without solid evidence. If he really did kidnap Zhang Lei's ghost, he's most likely already dead…”

Jing Yucheng didn't dare look Ling Yue in the eye while he was speaking. He didn't know why, but he was afraid of seeing her sad and upset.

"It's gone, what does that mean..."

Ling Yue's voice trembled slightly when she asked that question.

Is that what she meant?
