He was sweating profusely, as if he had fought a tough battle.

Chu Weilan sat up from the bed with difficulty, her breathing still a little messy.

This seemed to be the first time she had a direct conversation with the second personality, but fortunately, the manic atmosphere of the second personality was suppressed.

After she calmed down, she stood up and went to wash up. Not long after, the policewoman came to open the door.

"Miss Chu," the policewoman said softly, "Mr. Ji is here to bail you out, so you can leave right away."

Chu Weilan was surprised: "How could it be?"

It goes without saying how stubborn Officer Liu is, and the police chief who just arrived yesterday is even more iron-blooded. He believes that he is the murderer, and his second personality is violent and bloodthirsty. How could he allow Ji Yanzheng to come and bail her out?

"I don't know, but Sir Jiang personally agreed. Liu Sir was not happy and his face always looked bad." The policewoman smiled, "But he couldn't defeat Sir Jiang."

Chu Weilan was stunned, and her heart suddenly sank.

Is it...what price did Ji Yanzheng pay?

With such worries, even after leaving the detention center and seeing a tall man not far away, she could not get excited.

However, Ji Yanzheng smiled the moment he saw her. He strode up to her and held her heavily in his arms.

"I'm here to pick you up." The man said hoarsely, "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long."

She smelled a familiar scent on the tip of her nose, her eyes heated up, and she suddenly couldn't care less about it.

During these days in the detention center, although she had been very calm, it was impossible not to have the slightest fear in her heart. Now that she finally walked out of the detention center, the man's hot embrace made her feel safe for a long time, and the fear that had been suppressed for a long time suddenly burst out.

, before she could react, tears had already fallen down.

Ji Yanzheng probably felt it. He reached out and held her face, a look of distress flashed in his eyes.

"It's okay." His Adam's apple slid, and he leaned forward, letting his thin hot lips fall on her forehead, "Let's go home, okay?"

Chu Weilan was so choked that she couldn't speak and could only nod.

Ji Yanzheng picked her up and then saw Jiang Yu's expressionless face.

"Mr. Ji, don't forget that Miss Chu is still a suspect. She must be here at any time and cannot leave Yangcheng."

Ji Yanzheng smiled faintly, ignored him, turned around and walked to the car with the woman in his arms.

Jiang Yu looked at his back with dark eyes.

"Sir Jiang, why did you agree with him to take the suspect away?" Officer Liu sighed, "We finally made some progress. Maybe if we wait a little longer, she will plead guilty."

"She is a pregnant woman after all." Jiang Yu seemed to be looking for a reason for himself, "Officer Liu, I know you are eager to solve the case, but as a law enforcement officer, you cannot be completely impersonal."

Officer Liu was speechless for a while.

Human touch? The boss in front of me is the one who has no human touch at all, right?

…

Inside the Maybach.

Ji Yanzheng held her in his arms and didn't speak for a long time.

But Chu Weilan clearly heard his heavy breathing and rapid heartbeat.

She could completely imagine how this man was living these days. With his temperament, not being able to bail her out immediately was tantamount to the greatest torture for him.

"Yanzheng, why did they suddenly agree to let me go?" She remembered her worries and couldn't help but speak.

Ji Yanzheng laughed hoarsely: "I want to thank one of your fans, she knows Jiang Yu."

Chu Weilan opened her eyes wide.

The man didn't explain anything more. He told the driver: "Go back to Qianfan Villa."

"It's better to go back to Yuquan Palace first." Chu Weilan leaned into the man's arms and said softly, "Lin Ran and Monk Tianyi must be worried."

Lin Ran could only be a witness, not a suspect, so she was released after recording her confession that day.

Ji Yanzheng paused for a moment: "So, when will you go back to Qianfan Villa with me?"

Chu Weilan laughed with tears in her eyes: "I will go back with you after I pack up. Even if grandpa drives me away, I will still rely on you."

Ji Yanzheng seemed to let out a long breath, held her face, kissed her lips restrainedly, and then let go after a while.

As their breaths intertwined, Chu Weilan saw her own shadow in the man's dark eyes.

She suddenly felt a sharp soreness in her heart.

"Yanzheng, did you think I was coaxing you that day?"

"I thought you were acting for those people." The man suddenly smiled, "So, I didn't dare to have high hopes."

When Chu Weilan heard this, her heart clenched.

"Yanzheng." As soon as she opened her mouth, her voice was choked with sobs, "Why."

This man is so proud, but why is he so persistent with her, so persistent that he is almost humble?

Ji Yanzheng's Adam's apple slid, and his hot palm was placed on her lower abdomen.

"You don't even remember what happened that night." His voice was low and hoarse. "When you were drunk, you told me that I loved and protected you so much that you couldn't bear it."

Chu Weilan was startled for a moment.

"It's not because my love and protection are too much for you to bear, but because I've been asking for them." The man said, taking a deep breath, "That's when I realized that, in comparison,

I need you more, and you don't need me as much as you think."

"Yanzheng, I..."

"I know you are going to refute again." The man laughed hoarsely, "I need your unconditional love and trust. I need you to give yourself completely to me. You know how greedy I am."

Chu Weilan hugged him tightly: "It doesn't matter, I will give you whatever you want."

"Actually, your reservation is right." His voice was deep and hoarse, and he spoke very slowly, "I want your full trust and commitment, but I have failed to live up to your trust."

"Who said that?" She couldn't help but retort, "You have already given me too much."

"I always felt that I could do anything." The man looked at her deeply, "But there is nothing I can do about your illness. Instead, I made you endure pain and torture for a long time in vain."

"That's not your fault..."

"It's my fault that I failed to fulfill my promise." He smiled self-deprecatingly, "The same thing happened this time. I know you are innocent, but I can't let others believe in your innocence. On the contrary,

You are always calm and decisive, beyond my expectations, and you surprise me again and again."

Chu Weilan looked at him blankly, her eyes a little confused because she didn't understand what he was going to say.
