Reborn with the ability to read minds, I became a heartthrob.

Before Jiang Shiyue arrived to escort Zhou Liwan away, Zhou Liwan straightened up, slowly turned her head, and looked at the people inside: "Grandpa Meng, please don't tell Grandpa about what happened today, so as not to worry him."

Commander Meng hesitated for a long time before sighing and saying, "Fine, if you want to know what happened back then, you can go to the study in the old house. There should still be some evidence that your grandfather found back then."

study?

This should be the younger uncle's bedroom.

Zhou Liwan calmed herself down and nodded solemnly, "Thank you, Grandpa Meng."

After the two figures had completely disappeared, Director Ma looked at Commander Meng with some concern: "Commander Meng, is it right to tell Wanwan about this? Wouldn't letting her see those pieces of evidence only make her more heartbroken and distressed? Those photos are so... bloody."

Commander Meng remained silent for a long time before slowly speaking: "It's not a good thing to keep a knot in your heart for too long. Untie it, it's a good thing to untie it. People always have to grow."

After saying that, he took his granddaughter's hand and left, saying, "This is my fault, old man. You should deliver this banner for me."

Director Ma stared at the bright red flag on the table and nodded silently.

Zhou Liwan remained silent in the office, her head bowed. Jiang Shiyue knelt down in front of her with a touch of heartache and gently comforted her.

Just like when they were children, Zhou Liwan sadly threw herself into his arms: "Tiger Tooth Brother, I'm in pain..."

Jiang Shiyue felt a pang of heartache. Heaven knows that when he saw Zhou Liwan's pale face just now, his heart felt as if it had been struck by a blunt object.

The pain was so painful that I couldn't breathe.

"Xiaowan, it's okay. I'll always be by your side. Go ahead and do what you need to do, and untangle the knot in your heart."

Zhou Liwan looked up, her eyes brimming with tears, at the resolute and handsome man before her. Seeing the encouragement in his eyes, she felt a surge of strength coursing through her body.

The slight fear that had just arisen in my heart vanished instantly.

A resolute determination suddenly appeared in his dark eyes.

She immediately stood up, without taking anything with her, and ran straight out of the police station.

She couldn't wait a moment longer, and since her grandfather hadn't gone back yet, if she waited until night, she probably wouldn't be able to carry out her plans.

Before long, Zhou Liwan stood in front of Shen Nanzhou's bedroom.

Zhou Liwan hadn't forgotten the romantic moments between the two of them that day, but the current situation was special.

She shook her head vigorously to clear her mind of distractions, then stepped into the room with a serious expression.

The pure white curtains in the bedroom swayed slightly with her movements, and the dark-colored decor made people feel somewhat depressed.

Zhou Liwan looked around and decided to start by looking in the bookshelf.

Afraid of missing something, Zhou Liwan searched little by little, taking more than ten minutes to find even a small compartment.

Since my grandfather is so opposed to me finding out what happened back then, he will definitely keep it a secret.

Zhou Liwan was completely absorbed in the moment, and by the time darkness fell, she had not found a single clue.

He couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He had searched Shen Nanzhou's study thoroughly, but still found nothing.

Could he be in his bedroom?

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Liwan plunged into the bedroom filled with the scent of sandalwood.

Before she could even look closely, she heard barely perceptible footsteps. Zhou Liwan froze instantly and slowly turned around.

A tall, slender figure suddenly appeared before them.

The man who arrived was dressed in a black suit, and his elegant and dignified figure brought back memories of that ambiguous time in her mind.

Her heart tightened, and before she could explain anything, the man was already standing in front of her, his eyes clearly showing a question mark.

Zhou Liwan seemed a little flustered under his slightly surprised gaze, and after a long while, she awkwardly bit her lip.

Now the awkwardness from yesterday hasn't even faded, and today she's sneaking into his room again. How am I supposed to explain this?

The room was quiet, the evening breeze stirred the curtains, and Zhou Liwan's hair danced in the breeze.

Shen Nanzhou's lips moved slightly, as if he was about to say something, but Zhou Liwan spoke first: "I came here to look for something..."

After speaking, she awkwardly licked her dry lips, feeling guilty and unable to meet the man's gaze.

Shen Nanzhou's voice was as gentle as ever: "You came to my room to look for something?"

Zhou Liwan wondered if she was hallucinating, but she seemed to hear a hint of amusement in the other person's words.

See? She knows her lies won't fool anyone, but she's still stubbornly refusing to tell the truth.

Zhou Liwan nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, I'm looking for something. This used to be a study. I remember, Mom gave me..."

With her eyes darting around, Zhou Liwan seemed to see an old disc under Shen Nanzhou's bed. Such things don't exist anymore in this day and age, so it probably didn't belong to her uncle.

So she quickly took it out and held it in her hand, gesturing to the man: "This is the disc, my mother left it to me back then."

When Shen Nanzhou saw the disc, a strange glint flashed in his normally gentle pupils, but Zhou Liwan, who hadn't dared to look up, didn't see it.

"Are you sure?" Shen Nanzhou's voice suddenly became somewhat hoarse.

Zhou Liwan didn't want to waste any more time. She was so embarrassed she felt like she was digging out a three-story villa. All she wanted to do now was get out of there.

"Yes, I'm sure. It's getting late, so Uncle should rest first. I'll go back to my room now."

After saying that, Zhou Liwan tried to run away, but was stopped by the man again halfway: "Wanwan."

Zhou Liwan froze at the ambiguous "Wanwan".

Shen Nanzhou looked at him, who seemed frozen in place, and a faint smile appeared on his lips: "Let's talk."

"Talk...talk about what?" Feeling the man's direct gaze, Zhou Liwan had a bad feeling. Was he going to bring up that matter? "No, no, I didn't feel anything..."

Zhou Liwan blurted out halfway through her sentence.

I wish I could strangle myself; this is just a blatant attempt to cover something up.

Seeing her reaction, Shen Nanzhou lowered his brows slightly, without the slightest hint of tact: "I'm a man, it's perfectly normal for my body to have a natural reaction in that kind of environment."

Zhou Liwan's cheeks were so red they looked like they could bleed, and she murmured, "I know."

Shen Nanzhou looked at her ostrich-like expression, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes. He suddenly wanted to prank her, wondering how she would react.

"Do you know why you're still so afraid to see me? Don't you think I'm a promiscuous person like my mother, that I would do the same thing to my own niece..."

Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Liwan nervously interrupted, "I didn't mean that, and I'm not afraid to see you, it's just... I'm just a little embarrassed. It's not your fault."

The voice grew softer and softer until, towards the end, Shen Nanzhou could barely hear it.

"What did you say?"

Zhou Liwan gritted her teeth and shouted in one breath, "I'm just embarrassed, it's not your fault!"

After letting out a howl, Zhou Liwan rushed out with her eyes closed.

Almost bumping into the door, Shen Nanzhou chuckled and wanted to go forward to help, but Zhou Liwan seemed to have been stepped on and scurried away.

Shen Nanzhou was left standing there, stunned and somewhat helpless.

His niece is truly innocent to the extreme.
