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

Zhou Liwan was gagged and thrown into a room.

The bright incandescent lights inside were so dazzling that Zhou Liwan couldn't open her eyes at all.

After a while, I could see that there was nothing inside except a large human body scanning device, just like an MRI machine in a hospital.

Several burly men pulled out the bedsheet inside, pressed Zhou Liwan down on it, and then tied her up tightly with straps.

Zhou Liwan struggled desperately, as if the device was a giant monster trying to swallow her whole.

An indescribable sense of fear enveloped her, as if she were suffocating.

She struggled fiercely, kicking her legs hard at the burly men. The next second, without any mercy, they smashed Zhou Liwan's calf.

This forced her to stop struggling.

"Ah—!" Zhou Liwan suddenly raised her upper body. The pain in her legs made her mind suddenly flash with brilliance, and her small face instantly lost all color.

"That bitch is just like the daughter of that bitch from over a decade ago, they're both just as difficult to deal with! They only listen after you've suffered a bit!"

The burly man cursed loudly, but Zhou Liwan was in so much pain that she could no longer hear anything.

"Get started quickly, that guy is pretty good at fighting, we can't hold him off any longer!" The door was suddenly kicked open, and before the burly man at the door could finish speaking, they heard the piercing sound of police sirens and a large number of bodyguards breaking down the door from not far away.

The situation instantly reversed from one extreme to the other.

"Don't move, police! Everyone, put your hands on your heads and squat facing the wall!" Bai Gu's rough voice rang out, and the scene was quickly brought under control by the police and bodyguards.

"Quickly seal off all the exits of the villa, and make sure to control Dr. Li!" Jiang Shiyue was covered in wounds on his forehead, cheeks, and body.

After shouting that, he ran straight towards Zhou Liwan's direction. He had heard the heart-wrenching scream just now.

A bad premonition was drawing ever closer. He stumbled and crawled into the room, only to find Zhou Liwan lying quietly on the bed, unconscious from the pain, her broken leg twisted strangely.

"Wanwan! Wanwan!" Jiang Shiyue frantically untied the straps binding her, picked her up, and anxiously checked her over to see if there were any other wounds. "Say something, Wanwan, don't scare me."

Jiang Shiyue's brain had lost all ability to make judgments; he could only instinctively hold Zhou Liwan tightly.

"Captain, Dr. Li has been apprehended, and a large amount of blood and human remains, all preserved in formalin, have been found in the basement." Hu Xi had just entered the room when he saw the situation and immediately shouted outside, "Ambulance! Ambulance, quick! Sister Wanwan is in trouble!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the nurses and doctors who had come with him rushed in. Jiang Shiyue was still unwilling to let go of Zhou Liwan.

"Captain, quickly have the doctor take Sister Wanwan back to the hospital for treatment, we can't delay any longer!" Hu Xi nervously stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Shiyue, but when he saw Zhou Liwan's legs up close, his eyes couldn't help but redden.

With the help of breathing, Zhou Liwan was quickly taken away by the nurses.

The scene was quickly brought under control by the police, and the villa, which had been in chaos just moments before, was now completely empty.

A crime that has been covered up for many years is about to be exposed.

In the hospital, Jiang Hongshan's face was gloomy. Looking at Jiang Shiyue, who had been hanging his head and remaining silent in front of him, he was so angry that he stood up and slapped him hard.

The surrounding police officers immediately stepped forward to mediate: "Sir, don't be angry. Our captain didn't want this to happen either!"

At this moment, Director Ma also arrived. After all, Zhou Liwan's background was what it was, and if the Jiang family really got angry, he would indeed have a headache.

"Grandpa Jiang, please don't be angry. We've already subdued those people who attacked us on the spot, and we will absolutely not let them get away with it, so please rest assured!"

Jiang Hongshan sneered, and the butler slowly helped him sit up again: "I agreed to go to the police station later because you said she would only work in the office and wouldn't be at the scene. And what happened? This happened after she had only been there for a few months. How can I, as her grandfather, be happy?"

Director Ma sat down next to Jiang Hongshan to comfort him: "You mean the old man? This was indeed something we didn't consider carefully. Let's wait until she wakes up and see if she's willing to stay at the police station or if we'll support her unconditionally."

Before Jiang Hongshan could say anything more, the doctor inside came out and said, "The patient has woken up. It's nothing serious. She has a broken leg and we've put a cast on her. The cast will be removed in a month, and she'll be fine after two more months of rest."

Jiang Hongshan quickly asked with concern, "Will holding it affect your future? Will there be any aftereffects? Should we be careful about anything?"

The doctor reassured him, "Mr. Jiang, don't worry. Human bones are very strong, and the other person didn't use a sharp weapon, so it's not too serious. Just make sure she gets enough calcium and avoids strenuous exercise, and she'll be fine. Don't worry!"

Jiang Hongshan was relieved: "Thank you, doctor. You've worked hard."

The doctor quickly waved his hand, said "It's my duty," and left.

A group of people rushed into the ward. Zhou Liwan's complexion had improved a lot, and she immediately smiled when she saw Jiang Hongshan: "Grandpa~"

Jiang Hongshan was a little angry, but also soft-hearted: "You brat, do you want to scare your grandfather to death? I told you not to investigate that matter, why won't you listen to advice?"

Zhou Liwan tugged at her grandfather's hand and said sweetly, "Grandpa, don't be angry. It's nothing serious, is it?"

"It's not a big deal, so you only consider it a big deal if you're half-dead? Don't you care about your grandfather? I'm so old, I can't take a scare!"

Zhou Liwan quickly reassured him, "Grandpa, don't worry, I expected this. That's why I specifically arranged for bodyguards to accompany you. Also, Brother Huya made preparations long ago. You see, the police arrived just in time!"

Jiang Hongshan sneered: "If it had been in time, your leg would be fine!"

"Oh, Grandpa!"

Just as Zhou Liwan was about to say something, the sound of fighting suddenly came from outside, and there was a chaotic scene.

"Is this how you protect Wan? Girlfriend, my foot! You're a complete waste! You bastard!"

Shen Nanzhou's voice was angry, and his violent tone was something Zhou Liwan had never heard before.

But just from the sound, he knew what had happened, so he quickly shouted outside, "Uncle! Don't do it!"

As soon as the clear, soft voice fell, the noise outside stopped, and the next second, the door to the ward was pushed open.

Shen Nanzhou's once impeccable suit was now disheveled, which only accentuated his unruly handsomeness.

"Uncle."

Shen Nanzhou slowly walked in, looked at the person on the hospital bed smiling at him, and then said bitterly, "Now that your leg is injured, you can't hide anymore, can you?"

Zhou Liwan was too embarrassed to say anything, but after thinking for a long time, she finally spoke up: "This is not Jiang Shiyue's fault, it was my own choice to go."

Shen Nanzhou bowed and greeted Jiang Hongshan before speaking: "This matter won't end so easily. I haven't even done anything to him yet, and you're already feeling sorry for your boyfriend?"

Zhou Liwan knew she couldn't hide this any longer, so she explained directly: "Actually, I lied to you that day. Jiang Shiyue and I were never together at all."

The people in the ward were stunned.

Shen Nanzhou quickly calmed down and asked in a low voice, "Are you really not together?"
