After hearing what the police said, Su Bai remained silent for a long time. He hadn't even had a chance to make a move against Su Mo, but Su Mo had already lost her temper and attacked him.

The police asked Su Bai a few more questions, and Su Bai honestly answered all the ones he knew, but he really couldn't answer the ones he didn't know.

It wasn't until the police showed them a photo of the truck driver, asking, "This is the truck driver, Mr. Su Bai. Do you recognize him?"

Su Bai picked up the photo, his pupils contracted for a moment, then returned to normal, and he denied, "I don't know him!"

"You really don't recognize him? Mr. Su Bai, please take a closer look!" The police weren't easily fooled. They had been keeping a close eye on Su Bai, and although the change in Su Bai's expression just now was only for a moment, it still didn't escape their notice.

Upon seeing this, Hua Gengchen unleashed a burst of chilling energy that everyone except Su Bai could feel. The police officers were all startled by the chill and instinctively assumed defensive stances.

"Officer, my wife has already said she doesn't know him, so she doesn't know him!"

One of the junior detectives, unconvinced, stubbornly pressed on, "What's wrong with taking a closer look? What if I remember something?"

Hua Gengchen's gaze instantly fell on the young detective, his cold aura deliberately drawing closer, causing the young detective to shrink back sharply. "What right do you have to question my wife?"

"I..." Like a newborn calf unafraid of a tiger, the young detective still wanted to confront Hua Gengchen, but was stopped by the police captain. He apologized to Hua Gengchen, "Master Hua, my colleague had no ill intentions. He just hoped to investigate the case as soon as possible. It was wrong of him to offend your lady. I apologize to your lady on his behalf!"

Su Bai waved her hands repeatedly to indicate that everything was alright and stopped Hua Gengchen from continuing to release his chilling aura at the young detective. Out of respect for Su Bai, Hua Gengchen let the young detective go for the time being. Once Hua Gengchen was appeased, Su Bai explained to the police officers, "I really don't know this person, but the necklace he was wearing in the photo looked familiar, so I..."

"A necklace?" The police captain took the photo and looked at it, but didn't find anything wrong with it. "Isn't this just an ordinary necklace?"

Su Bai shook his head. "This isn't an ordinary necklace! It's custom-made; every child in the Su family has one. Although it looks ordinary on the outside, each person's birth date and blood type are engraved inside. More importantly, there's a miniature signal transmitter inside, meant for the Su family's children to use in case of danger." He had one in his previous life too, but in this life, the Su family didn't have time to make one for him before he got married, and perhaps Su Shengrong won't make one for him either!

This unassuming necklace actually has such an important purpose?

The police officers were amazed; the world of the wealthy was indeed different from theirs.

"Thank you for the clue, Mr. Su. I will have someone investigate." After writing down the clue in his notebook, the police captain stood up and said to Hua Gengchen and Su Bai, "I'm sorry to have bothered you. We'll take our leave now. If there's anything else we need, we might bother you again!"

"I will definitely cooperate!" Su Bai nodded and said, "If there is any progress in the case, please let me know, Captain." He wanted to see if it was really Su Mo who wanted to harm him!

"Definitely!" The police captain readily agreed, but according to regulations, the victim would not be informed until the case investigation was completed, a point he did not mention to Su Bai at all.

Bai Ze actively saw the police officers out; after all, they were kind-hearted people who wanted to take him home, so there was no big deal about it.

After the police left, Hua Gengchen asked Su Bai, "You really don't recognize that person?"

Su Bai could lie to the police, but under the cold, unwavering gaze of Hua Gengchen, he couldn't lie at all. "I wouldn't say we know each other, but I know he has been in contact with Su Mo in private... I had someone follow Su Mo."

Hua Gengchen was surprised that Su Bai would do something like this, and his interest was piqued. He looked at Su Bai with great interest and asked, "When did you have someone follow Su Mo? What did they find out?"

Su Bai felt extremely uncomfortable under Hua Gengchen's gaze. He thought Hua Gengchen would think he had ulterior motives, but he never imagined that Hua Gengchen would not care at all!

"After my dad brought Su Chengjun and Su Mo to my door to apologize, Su Mo is a petty person, and I took such an important thing from her, so she was sure she would do something to me. I thought it was better to strike first and suffer the consequences if I did, so I sent someone to follow her. However... I haven't had time to deal with her yet."

"Why haven't you taken any action yet?" It's been quite a while since Su Shengrong and the others came to apologize, so why hasn't Su Bai made a move?

Upon hearing this, Su Bai glared angrily at Hua Gengchen. What else could it be?

It's all because of him!

If Hua Gengchen hadn't occupied his mind all day, he would have dealt with Su Mo long ago during his spare time while completing system tasks, and she wouldn't have had the opportunity to hire someone to kill him!

Hua Gengchen gleaned something from Su Bai's eyes, and in a good mood, he curled the corners of his lips and reached out to pinch Su Bai's cheek. "So what have you found out?"

Su Bai stared at Hua Gengchen in astonishment, feeling a frighteningly hot sensation where Hua had pinched her. She shifted uncomfortably, only to feel something she shouldn't have. Her pupils widened instantly! "You, you!!!"

Hua Gengchen was in an even better mood. "This is your problem, don't blame me!"

Su Bai was furious and embarrassed. Not only were his ears bright red, but his face was also flushed. "Let me go!" How could he have forgotten that he was still being held on Hua Gengchen's lap?

"No!" Hua Gengchen immediately rejected the idea. Su Bai looked thin, but he was incredibly soft to the touch. Not wanting to let go until he'd had his fill, he urged, "Tell me quickly, what have you found out?"

"Let me down there and I'll tell you!" He felt that unusual thing, his body was so stiff that he had no mind to think about anything else.

"I can't control that!" Hua Gengchen said regretfully. "After all, it's more under your command than mine!"

boom.

Su Bai blushed completely!

"You, you, you pervert!" Su Bai was at a loss for words, not knowing what words to use to describe him. After thinking for a long time, he finally came up with this sentence, but Hua Gengchen laughed out loud after hearing it. "Wife, you are so cute!" He then gave Su Bai a kiss on the cheek.

Su Bai was stunned.

What on earth just happened?

He pushed Hua Gengchen away with all his might, struggling fiercely, "Hua Gengchen! Let me go!" He couldn't get any closer to Hua Gengchen anymore; it was too easy for Hua Gengchen to take advantage of him. Why hadn't he thought of that before?

This time, Hua Gengchen didn't pull back. Instead, he released Su Bai's grip, letting her move off his lap and sit on the sofa opposite him. He realized his own situation was also getting out of hand, and he didn't know what he might do if things continued.

Su Bai took a while to calm down his body temperature. Bai Ze returned after seeing everyone off. Seeing the atmosphere between Su Bai and Hua Gengchen, he naturally found a seat that was neither too close nor too far away. He wanted to watch the show!

"Can you talk now?" Hua Gengchen saw Bai Ze arrive and lost interest in teasing Su Bai. This different Su Bai was someone only he could see; no one else could see him.

Su Bai said, "It's nothing, it's just that the truck driver and Su Mo are having an affair." He was even a little happy when he heard the news, Su Mo was really asking for trouble!

In his previous life, Young Master Gu had met this man and knew that he had a very strange condition: the woman who married him had to be a virtuous wife and loving mother, completely following the traditional model of the man being the breadwinner and the woman being the homemaker, and she had to be a virgin.

Although Young Master Gu has a reputation for womanizing, in his eyes, men and women are different. Men can have three wives and four concubines and can roam the world with other women, but women, especially those he marries, can not have a second man in their lives. They can only stay at home obediently to be good wives and mothers and can do nothing else.

Su Mo initially put on a good act in front of Young Master Gu, but eventually her true colors were revealed.

Su Bai originally planned to tell Young Master Gu about Su Mo's affair with the truck driver at a suitable time, but firstly, he didn't have the time, and secondly, the right time hadn't come yet.

Su Bai's hope was that Su Mo would never have a chance to turn things around.

He didn't want Su Mo to be like a grasshopper in autumn, jumping around every now and then. Although it wouldn't cause much harm, it would still be annoying to watch!

"Really!" Before Hua Gengchen could speak, Bai Ze couldn't contain his excitement any longer. "Su Mo and that hoodlum are having an affair?"

“That’s right!” Su Bai affirmed, “I have solid evidence!” Su Mo and the truck driver always had a good conversation whenever they met. Su Bai hadn’t understood why Su Mo met with the truck driver so frequently before, since the truck driver was quite ordinary-looking and had no particular charisma. Now he understood.

So they've been plotting to take action against him all along!

"Tsk tsk, what an appetite... not picky at all." Bai Ze commented sharply. He had met Su Mo once or twice before. She was clearly a pretty young girl, so why was he so blind?

Hua Gengchen had no interest in commenting on Su Mo's tastes; he was thinking about something more important. "Su Bai, hand over the evidence to me, and I will make sure Su Mo suffers eternal damnation!"

Upon hearing this, Su Bai was taken aback for a moment, but then shook his head. "No need. I prefer to take revenge myself." He wasn't someone anyone could easily bully.

He wanted to hide his abilities and watch the fight unfold, but he had already been bullied to this point. If he didn't fight back, he would really be looked down upon.

Hua Gengchen met Su Bai's eyes and, seeing the seriousness and anger within them, immediately changed his mind. "Fine, go yourself! If you need any help, just let me know!" He paused slightly, then added, "Just remember, I'll always be behind you. Do whatever you want; I'll hold the sky up for you even if it falls!"

Su Bai was stunned for a long time before replying with a simple "okay". Hua Gengchen's last words gave him great courage, making Su Bai feel like he could do anything, even if he really broke the sky!
