Return to before death

They put him into the police car.

Zong Zhengqing's face couldn't be uglier.

Yan Ran got into the ambulance without looking back, as if once she got in the ambulance, she would have no further connection with the Zong family.

Yan Ran frowned deeply. She had finally seen Zong Zhengqing's true colors. As the truth was slowly revealed, her feelings for him grew colder and colder.

She turned to look at Zong Zhengjing, who was visibly injured, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked, "Are you alright?"

This person is far superior to Zong Zhengqing.

At least this person won't push her to the front when there's danger.

"Ranran..." Zong Zhengjing looked at the blood-stained wound on her arm with a worried expression, but he was also relieved that she was worried about him.

Fortunately, his first reaction at that moment was to help her without hesitation.

"I'm fine." Yan Ran gave a vague reply and subtly moved a distance away, sitting on the side.

Recalling what had just happened, she couldn't help but frown. Was she just using medication haphazardly?

The Zong family did indeed run a hospital, but the issue of indiscriminate use of medication involved interests, and she believed that someone like Zong Zhengqing would never allow such a thing to happen.

Was the man lying?

Impossible. She immediately dismissed the idea. Based on her many years of experience as a journalist, no one would do something so crazy unless they were driven to madness.

Especially the way he was willing to risk his life to drag Zong Zhengqing along.

The more Yan Ran thought about it, the more suspicious things seemed. Suddenly, she looked up and shouted, "Stop the car."

Zongzheng Jing, who was about to break the silence, stared blankly at her, then abruptly changed the subject, "Ranran, what's wrong?"

"parking!"

Yan Ran ignored him, and seeing that the ambulance showed no sign of stopping, she shouted loudly again.

"Miss, your injury has not been properly treated and is very susceptible to infection, which could lead to festering wounds. Please wait until the wound is treated at the hospital before doing anything else."

The nurse standing nearby had clearly experienced something similar before. She recovered in just a few seconds, walked over to Yan Ran, and gently offered words of comfort.

"Ranran, nothing is more important than your health. I'll go with you after your wound is treated." Zong Zhengjing followed the nurse's words, afraid that she might do something wrong.

He knew she wouldn't be able to accept what happened back then, having a relationship with him, and how the brothers had conspired to hide it from her for so many years.

Even though he never touched her.

In addition, when they encountered danger earlier, Zong Zhengqing's subconscious action was to hide behind her and push her, which must have really provoked her.

Don't let her seemingly nonchalant demeanor fool you; she must be feeling incredibly distressed inside.

But he couldn't think of anything to say to comfort her.

"No need," Yan Ran refused without hesitation. "After all, we're not related anymore, are we?"

A rhetorical question left him speechless.

Once Yan Ran divorces Zong Zhengqing, she will have no further connection with the Zong family, and he will have no other dealings with her except for his affection for her.

Now that what happened back then has been revealed, she must hate him terribly.

However, Yan Ran obediently went to the hospital to have her wound bandaged before heading to the police station.

No matter what, you can't neglect your body.

Coincidentally, the person handling the case was Qin Zhiyuan. She couldn't say she liked this man, but he wasn't bad either; at least she could talk to him.

She stood quietly to the side, listening to their interrogation.

Why did you commit the crime?

Qin Zhiyuan skipped over the long list of questions and got straight to the point.

Fortunately, this action earned Yan Ran a little favor. If she had asked about the other police officers' backgrounds before starting the interrogation, she believed she would have fallen asleep before even hearing the main point.

"I'm going to kill Zong Zhengqing... that bastard, he'll die a horrible death!" The man kept repeating this sentence with a ferocious expression, as if he had lost his mind.

Yan Ran frowned imperceptibly; this was getting a bit troublesome.

The most dangerous people to interrogate are not liars, but those who are not in their right mind.

They seem to be telling the truth, but you can't actually get any real information out of them.

She turned to look at Qin Zhiyuan, and he also turned to look at her. Their eyes met, and they both understood what the other meant.

"Sir, please calm down. I understand your hatred for Zong Zhengqing, but can you tell us why you committed the crime and killed him? We will give you a satisfactory answer."

Having been a journalist for so many years, his tongue is certainly not to be underestimated.

She guided the man step by step, and from his previous words, she could roughly guess some things, but it was still somewhat vague.

"The Zong family's hospital is using medicine haphazardly! They killed my wife! They killed her because of Zong Zhengqing! That bastard, I'm going to kill him!" The man became agitated at the mention of Zong Zhengqing, his eyes widening with overwhelming hatred.

The genuine emotion in his eyes startled Yan Ran slightly; she had felt the same way when she learned that Zong Zhengqing had given up on saving Tangtang.

Therefore, she understands this feeling best.

With her lips pressed tightly together, Yan Ran turned her head and exchanged a glance with Qin Zhiyuan. From the man's words, she could roughly deduce the cause and result of the matter, but the details were somewhat vague.

Using medication haphazardly? Even so, the man should have gone to a hospital instead of directly naming names. Could it be that this matter is inextricably linked to Zong Zhengqing?

"Who is your wife? Can you tell me?" Yan Ran adjusted her emotions and tried to soften her tone to lower the man's guard.

Furthermore, you absolutely cannot fool the other party just because they are mentally unstable. If you accidentally say something you shouldn't, it might provoke them to become even more agitated and do something crazy, which would be a huge loss.

She had seen this kind of thing many times, so she was adept at handling it.

"Zhang Xinyi." The name slipped out, and the man seemed to remember something, his expression softening.

"Xinyi... my Xinyi..."

The man's expression instantly turned sorrowful, then turned ferocious the next second.

"Zong Zhengqing, I will definitely kill you! To pay for my beloved's death!"

Yan Ran looked at the man with a complicated expression, then turned to Qin Zhiyuan with a helpless voice that only the two of them could hear, saying, "As long as we investigate Zhang Xinyi's cause of death, this case can be closed."

Zhang Xinyi? The more she pronounced the name, the more familiar it seemed. She didn't know where she had heard it before, but couldn't quite place it.

Her eyes widened suddenly, and a fragment flashed through her mind: Zhang Xinyi, wasn't she the woman who jumped off the building and was saved by her when she traveled back in time?

Unexpectedly, that person turned out to be the man's wife. All the events seemed to connect, yet they became increasingly blurry.

Her legs suddenly went weak, and she braced herself against the table with both hands. What on earth was going on?

"Are you alright?" Qin Zhiyuan's worried voice came from beside her. She regained her senses and looked at the man opposite her who had gone mad.

"fine."
