Chapter 76: Wishful company in dreams, lonely soul to rely on in daytime

"The suspect has been brought to justice. I need to understand the situation at that time with Mr. Gao. I would also like to ask Madam for your convenience."

Mrs. Gao felt much better after hearing that Ruyi had been arrested. She nodded and looked at Liu Zifeng gratefully, "Sir, you must make the decision for my son!"

"He is young, and his good life has been ruined into such a situation. Sir, you must punish Ruyi!"

Glancing at Mr. Gao who was hiding silently behind his mother, Liu Zifeng responded politely.

"Of course, the case is complicated, so please give me some time, madam."

After hearing Liu Zifeng's request again, Mrs. Gao took the housekeeper and other servants out of the wing and waited outside the door.

"I heard from my mother that Mr. Liu saved the student, otherwise the student would have died in the West at this moment.

Mr. Gao had also obtained a small degree of fame before, and he and Liu Zifeng were both seniors on the imperial examination road. When facing Liu Zifeng, he naturally called himself a student.

Mr. Gao, who had lost an arm, bowed with one hand, but his face looked downcast.

Yue'er, Cheng Yue'er, Miss Cheng family.

"The students don't know either."

"In a daze, I vaguely remember hearing some sounds of fighting."

Mrs. Gao glanced at the back room. There was no movement from her son in the dimly lit bed. He must have fallen asleep due to exhaustion.

"When the students wake up, they will already be in this room."

"Take me to the side hall."

Although it was only for a moment, Liu Zifeng still saw the guilty conscience of Mr. Gao.

"The next moment, the icy cold air pressed against my neck, and then someone pushed me violently towards the bed. I didn't know where my head hit me, and I fainted."

"How can such a disregard for etiquette and law be allowed to happen!"

Mr. Gao recalled with a blank look on his face.

Looking at Mr. Liu's determined eyes, Mr. Gao gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, the student was indeed attracted by her beauty when they first met, but he was just admiring her. He never went out of his way."

After saying that, the magistrate turned around and left slowly.

"As soon as my son woke up, Mr. Liu went over there to ask if there had been any changes in the case?" The man couldn't help but guess, "Is it possible that the real culprit is not Ruyi? But someone else?"

"Yes Yes."

"Mr. Gao, please take care of yourself. Your body cannot withstand the abuse now."

The senior official frowned, looking at the government officials standing outside the house with growing doubts.

Mr. Gao immediately averted his eyes, and after thinking about it, he looked firmly at Liu Zifeng.

Hearing Liu Zifeng's congratulatory message, Mr. Gao's whole body trembled.

"I would like to congratulate you. From now on, you will have your wishful companionship in your dreams every night, and you will have Miss Cheng's lonely soul to take care of you during the day. You will have a beautiful wife and concubine, and you will have a happy life."

"It doesn't matter."

Seeing him tightly grabbing his white sleeved hand, if Liu Zifeng had not received the testimonies from the servants of the Cheng family, he might have been frightened by this righteous appearance.

"Not to mention that her status is completely different from mine. My heart has always been with Yue'er, and I have never had any other woman in my heart."

"Why did she say that you were eating from the bowl and looking at the pot, and while you were anxious to marry Miss Cheng, you secretly pestered her and refused to let go. You are simply a shameless womanizer?!"

Mrs. Gao and the housekeeper who were guarding the door were startled. They didn't expect Mr. Liu to ask so quickly.

"She's making a false accusation!"

Liu Zifeng glanced at the wound wrapped in gauze and asked sternly, "What happened in the room last night?"

Seeing Mr. Gao's shameless lies, Liu Zifeng chuckled.

Liu Zifeng knew that the matter was over, but he did not intend to let Mr. Gao live just like this.

Lifting Mr. Gao's hand away, Liu Zifeng looked at the anxious Mr. Gao calmly and said suddenly.

Liu Zifeng stood up and couldn't help but laugh when he saw the man hiding in the bed in a panic.

The case is difficult to resolve, and even if Ruyi survives, the Gao family will never accept this ugly thing.

Then he turned around and said a few polite words to Liu Zifeng without thinking much about it.

"Is it really just a master-servant relationship?!"

He excitedly grabbed Liu Zifeng's sleeve with his hand, "Master Liu, the student didn't say anything false, but you can go to class and confront her!"

There was a little maid who even admitted that she was the one who reported on Ruyi and took Cheng Yue there to catch the traitor.

Mr. Liu was extremely serious when handling the case, and Mrs. Gao also urged the housekeeper to lead the way.

"Based on what you know about her, what do you think she will tell me?"

In addition to the torture of Ruyi by the mother and daughter of the Cheng family, the servants also saw Mr. Gao pulling Ruyi.

Mr. Gao's face couldn't hold back, and disgust filled his eyes.

Liu Zifeng sneered, stood up and said forcefully, "That's not how Ruyi described the entanglement between you and her."

"She shamelessly pestered me and forced me to marry her."

"Because Ruyi is dead."

It was already dark outside the window, but his whole body felt as cold and biting as if he had fallen into hell.

Now, only by obtaining the confessions of Cheng Yuanwai and his wife, can this murder case involving three people from two families be truly solved.

"She, what nonsense did she talk to the adults?!"

It was impossible for Mr. Gao to tell the truth, but he already got the answer he wanted.

At this time, Mrs. Cheng's wife in the side hall saw the government officials guarding the house. She immediately stopped crying and wanted to go out to ask, but was persuaded to come back by Wang Ba's first words.

A few words made Mr. Gao's face turn pale, his chest kept rising and falling, and he opened his mouth to retort loudly.

Now calm down and think about how a thin woman killed and skinned people without making any noise, and also chopped off the arms of adult men with one knife.

"Mr. Gao, today is your special day, and I haven't had time to congratulate you yet."

In the panic, Gao Yuanwai didn't think much about it.

"The student thanks Mr. Liu for saving his life."

Mr. Gao, whose hand was still stretched out in the air, couldn't help but be stunned. He looked at Mr. Liu in disbelief, with complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.

He seemed to smell a fishy smell in his nostrils, just like the corpse of Miss Cheng's family in the new house.

"What is your relationship with the criminal Ruyi?"

I didn't expect Liu Zifeng to mention Ruyi, let alone ask about his relationship with the woman.

"After entering the room, a really cold wind hit, and all the candles in the room were extinguished. Before the student could see anyone else, he felt severe pain in his arm."

Liu Zifeng nodded, looked at the other party sharply, and asked bluntly.

With a "creak" sound, he opened the door.

"Of course it's a master-servant relationship. She is Yue'er's personal maid."

"You all hold your own opinions, and I can't decide."

Liu Zifeng smiled slightly, leaned over and whispered in the man's ear.

As he said that, Gao Yuanwai looked at Cheng Yuanwai, who also frowned and had a gloomy expression.

Before Cheng Pengfei spoke, Mrs. Cheng on the side immediately made a conclusion.

"Whether it goes as planned or not, this matter has nothing to do with her!"

"If not, why did Mr. Liu mention her name?!"
