Return to before death

She shook her head, her face turning deathly pale. All she wanted was to save Tangtang, but one thing after another came crashing down on her, catching her completely off guard.

What started as simple things became complicated as the events unfolded. When will this ever end?

"Are you really alright?" Qin Zhiyuan looked at Yan Ran's pale face and felt that this matter was definitely not that simple. At the same time, he was also very curious about what she was thinking.

The main family's hospital...

The key words flashed through his mind, and he accurately grasped the information, which explained why her expression became abnormal.

If it's truly discovered that there are problems with the Zong family's hospital, Zong Zhengqing will definitely not be able to escape punishment, and then she...

"You'd better prepare yourself mentally. This could very well be related to your husband's life, since it's directly related to a murder case." After hesitating for a moment, he still offered words of comfort.

Little did she know, that wasn't what she was thinking.

"Let's ask him after he calms down. I'm going to rest for a while."

Yan Ran didn't intend to explain. Since that's what he thought, then let's just accept it as such.

The fewer people who know, the safer it is. Only she can understand these things by investigating them herself. But this man, her intuition tells her that he is connected to these events, otherwise he wouldn't have appeared so coincidentally.

As for Zong Zhengqing, what does it have to do with her?

She staggered away, and Qin Zhiyuan simply watched her leave. There was still a case to solve, and he couldn't leave for both personal and professional reasons.

After sitting there for a long time until the man calmed down, just as she was about to start questioning him again, the man suddenly knelt down on the ground with a thud.

"Commander Qin, you must help me. I felt something was wrong with the Zong family's hospital from the beginning, but I never expected they would do something so heinous."

The man said indignantly, a malice flashing in his eyes, but Qin Zhiyuan didn't notice because he was looking down.

"This kind of hospital must be shut down and investigated, otherwise who knows who else will suffer inside in the future!"

His tone was far too calm compared to his previous madness. If Yan Ran were still here, she would definitely be able to tell. However, Qin Zhiyuan only grasped the key point and completely ignored the change in his tone.

“This matter involves many things, and it’s impossible to find out everything just by looking at it. You’ll need to wait patiently.” Qin Zhiyuan stared intently at the man kneeling on the ground, expressing his complete understanding of his feelings at that moment, before changing the subject.

"However, you committed the crime first, and the matter has not yet been investigated. Please stay at the police station for the next few days."

Public matters are public matters, and private matters are private matters; Qin Zhiyuan clearly distinguishes between these two.

Even if he fully understood the man's feelings at this moment, he could not let him go because of it.

It's one thing for him to be arrested for committing the crime, and it's another thing for the Zong family's hospital to kill people by misusing medication. Even if it really was the Zong family's hospital that killed the man's wife, that cannot be a reason for him to commit the murder.

However, this could reduce his criminal liability, while Zong Zhengqing might spend the rest of his life in prison. All of these situations are based on the premise that everything the man said is true.

"They can perform an autopsy! They said they injected my wife with some new drug. She was perfectly fine before, but she gradually weakened until the end..." The man sobbed softly and didn't continue.

It is said that men do not easily shed tears, but his tears fell uncontrollably to the ground, soaking the area, which shows how deep his feelings for his wife are.

Yan Ran sat in the police station for a while to calm herself down before leaving. The cold wind blew against her face, and she was at a loss for what to do.

Holding the phone, my finger hesitated on the screen, unsure whether to press the button.

The next second, the phone vibrated, and the person displayed on the screen was none other than Yu Xiao.

I don’t know whether to say they were on the same wavelength or what, but just as she was about to call, the other person called back.

"Smile."

"Dye".

The two spoke at the same time and laughed at the same time. Listening to the voices on the other end of the phone, Yan Ran felt a warmth in her heart.

Even if the whole world abandons her, at least she still has Xiaoxiao.

"I already know what happened today. Shuhai and I both welcome you home." Shuhai's low laughter came from the other end of the line, and Yan Ran's face flushed slightly.

When she first came to Yu Xiao, she made it clear that she was determined to get a divorce, but in the end she went back with Zong Zhengqing, and Yu Xiao supported her without asking why.

Now she's saying she wants a divorce, and for a moment even she herself is a little confused about what she's doing.

This time, however, no matter how much Zong Zhengqing begged her, she would not turn back.

"Thank you for smiling."

All she could say was this: she was grateful to Xiaoxiao for always supporting her no matter what she did all these years, and there was nothing else she could do.

But from now on, she will be herself again.

"This has always been your home. It's good that you're back. Don't thank me. We're such strangers."

"And me too, welcome Ranran home."

Yu Xiao exclaimed in surprise, clearly not expecting Ji Shuhai to suddenly hug her. She blushed and gently pushed him away, giving him a glare.

The call hasn't ended yet; I wonder what Yan Ran will think if she hears it.

But Ji Shuhai still looked at her with a smile, showing no intention of letting go.

"I'm getting goosebumps all over. Can't you two hang up the phone before you start flirting?"

Yan Ran's disdainful tone came from the other end of the phone, but the slight curve of her eyes revealed her true feelings; she genuinely wished the young couple well.

Sometimes, a simple, ordinary life is quite nice, just like the two of them, living a fulfilling life.

unlike her...

She hung up the phone first, slowing her pace. If she went back now and bumped into that young couple doing something, wouldn't that be incredibly awkward?

Since she couldn't find anything else to do for the time being, she might as well enjoy the scenery along the way.

Since marrying Zong Zhengqing, she has lost count of how long it has been since she walked alone on the street like this.

I don't want anything, I have no purpose.

Like those drifters, they go wherever they want.

Yu Xiao was extremely anxious on the other end, checking her phone every now and then, and turning her head to glare angrily at the person who was laughing without any regard for his image.

It's all his fault. Now look what's happened! He's scared Yan Ran so much that she hasn't arrived yet. Who knows what kind of look she'll give her when she finally comes.

She clearly didn't do anything right!

No, wait, nothing happened between them!

The door opened at that moment, and Yan Ran's haggard face appeared before her, causing her to stop in her tracks.

"Ranran, what's wrong with you?"

Yu Xiao nervously grabbed Yan Ran's hand; the icy touch reminded her of a dead person's hand.

She raised her hand to touch Yan Ran's face, but it was still cold to the touch. She turned around and glared at Ji Shuhai again. If he hadn't suddenly hugged her, she wouldn't have given Yan Ran the wrong information.
