She was so blocked that her face turned blue, and she gritted her teeth and said, "You have been checking for a whole day today, and I don't believe you haven't found any doubts."
Zhan Beihan said calmly: "Even if I find it, why should I tell you?"
"..." Xiao Lingyue's eyelids twitched: "Isn't it your duty to investigate the case according to the order?"
Zhan Beihan sneered: "If I turn you in as the murderer, I will be doing my duty."
This is the simplest way.
In other words - even if he has evidence in his hand that can prove that Xiao Lingyue was wronged, why should he help her?
Xiao Lingyue understood what he meant and her eyes darkened: "So, you want to threaten me with this? Is this your purpose?"
Now the whole case is in Zhan Beihan's hands. Whether she is the murderer or wrongly accused all depends on Zhan Beihan's will.
If he really wanted her dead, there would be no need to interrogate her.
Just hand over the case details directly.
But he did not do this. Instead, he came to Tianlao to see her with the zhezi and let her read the contents written in the zhezi.
Why did he do this?
Because Zhezi is just a tool, Zhan Beihan is telling her: "The life and death of you and your son only depend on my thoughts!"
What is this if it's not a threat?
Xiao Lingyue suddenly calmed down, her dark eyes were like quenched cold light, and she looked at the man for a moment: "What do you want?"
Zhan Beihan said with a half-smile, "I want to make a deal with you."
Xiao Lingyue said with a hint of sarcasm: "Are you sure this is a transaction, not a threat?"
Zhan Beihan: "You can refuse, I never force anyone."
"It's just that after you refuse and this letter is handed to the father, I will have no control over what will happen to you and your son." Zhan Beihan said coldly: "Think it over before you speak."
Xiao Lingyue was extremely angry and smiled: "Is this the deal you mentioned?"
Zhan Beihan said calmly: "You have the right to refuse. I am just telling you the consequences of refusal."
Why isn't it a transaction?
If she is willing to bear the consequences, she can naturally refuse, and he will never force her.
Many thoughts flashed through Xiao Lingyue's mind: "What is the transaction? If I can't do it..."
"You can do it, it's very simple."
Zhan Beihan interrupted her expressionlessly: "If you want to clear your suspicions and get rid of the situation of being a prisoner, I can help you, but the condition is..."
He slowly narrowed his eyes and stared at her with his deep eyes.
Xiao Lingyue's heartbeat was in her throat, but her face remained calm.
She didn't know what conditions Zhan Beihan would put forward.
He had carefully planned such a large circle and firmly held her hand. Now he could see clearly, given his character, what kind of exchange would he offer? And would she agree or not?
Everything is unknown.
Zhan Beihan raised his lips with unknown meaning, suddenly reached out and pinched her cheek: "I want to know, who is hiding under your fake face?"
Xiao Lingyue: "..."
Her expression froze for a moment, and she looked at him in disbelief: "Is this what you want to know?"
