"Why?" Song Xiaojia frowned.

"Come with me." Lin Chuan pulled Song Xiaojia and headed outside.

Song Xiaojia was puzzled and asked, "What for? Where are you taking me?"

"You'll know once you come with me," Lin Chuan said.

Song Xiaojia was dragged outside by Lin Chuan and eventually shoved into his battered jeep. The car sped straight towards East River Pier.

Arriving at East River Pier, Song Xiaojia grew nervous, covering her chest and asking awkwardly, "Lin Chuan, it's almost dark, why did you bring me here? Don't harbor any improper thoughts about me. I won't let you succeed."

"Get out," Lin Chuan glanced at her.

Song Xiaojia pursed her lips, jumped out of the car reluctantly, and asked, "What for? What's there to see here? It's getting dark, the wind is strong, and it's quite scary."

"Aren't you looking for Liu Shaoqi's driver?" Lin Chuan asked with a smile.

"Yes!" Song Xiaojia nodded.

"Then let me tell you, that person has already been sunk to the bottom of the river," Lin Chuan pointed towards the pitch-black river surface.

Sss...

Song Xiaojia gasped, looking at Lin Chuan in shock. Just then, a cold wind blew over, and Song Xiaojia suddenly felt a chilling sensation all over her body — it was the first time she had felt this way as a police officer.

"Did you do it?" Song Xiaojia asked in astonishment.

"It could be said that I did, but also that I didn't," Lin Chuan looked at Song Xiaojia.

"What exactly happened?" Song Xiaojia's face suddenly turned grave.

"Do you want to know the whole truth?" Lin Chuan asked.

"Yes, you must tell me everything without missing a word," Song Xiaojia said, grabbing Lin Chuan's arm, visibly agitated.

Lin Chuan chuckled and said, "It's actually not that complicated. Someone tampered with Liu Shaoqi's driver secretly and killed him."

"Then... who exactly is the mastermind behind this?" Song Xiaojia hastily asked, "Why would he do such a thing?"

"Whoever gets the Liu Group, is the mastermind," Lin Chuan looked at Song Xiaojia.

"You mean... Yang Zi?" Song Xiaojia was taken aback.

"Right!" Lin Chuan immediately nodded and continued, "It was Yang Zi who had the driver kill Liu Shaoqi, and then Yang Zi killed the driver. Later, my people found Yang Zi dumping the body into East River. I had the body fished out, stuffed it into a chemical barrel, filled it with cement, and tossed it right into the East River. Just like that!"

"My God." Song Xiaojia stared at Lin Chuan, dumbfounded, and said, "If you already knew the truth, why didn't you tell me? Do you realize that's complicity, and you are an accomplice?"

"I don't know!" Lin Chuan shook his head and said, "Xiao Jia, you can't scare me with that."

"I'm not trying to scare you," Song Xiaojia looked at Lin Chuan, "Shouldn't this case be investigated further? Shouldn't the truth be revealed to the world?"

"If you've lost your mind, go ahead and do it," Lin Chuan said with a cigarette in his mouth, taking a deep drag, "Are you really going to overturn the case for a no-good scion like Liu Shaoqi? If you reveal the truth, do you know how many people will get involved, how many more people will get hurt?"

"I..." Song Xiaojia was at a loss.

Clamping her teeth, Song Xiaojia didn't know what to do; if she let it go, it would clearly be against her principles as a police officer. However, pursuing the investigation could lead to endless trouble, potentially implicating many people. The Liu Group was a huge enterprise, surely with many involved in this matter. Should she protect these people or restore the truth of the events?

Song Xiaojia was incredibly conflicted, truly unsure of how to proceed.

After hesitating for a long time, Song Xiaojia spoke up, "Maybe you're right, some things are over, let the truth of this incident sink to the bottom of the river."

"Exactly." Lin Chuan nodded and smiled, "Why disturb the living for a dead person?"

Song Xiaojia was silent; this was her first time compromising on such a matter, her first time going against her will, her principles. She relaxed and smiled, "Perhaps you are right."

"Yeah, I'm definitely right," Lin Chuan nodded.

Song Xiaojia gently leaned towards Lin Chuan, rested her face against his chest, and said, "Lin Chuan, this time I'll listen to you."

"Then, would you listen to me from now on as well?" Lin Chuan, quite wickedly, supported Song Xiaojia's bottom with both hands, giving a firm squeeze, one hand inadvertently slipping into the crevice, nearly causing Song Xiaojia to leap up.

Song Xiaojia exclaimed, "Are you crazy, we're outdoors."

"Then let's get in the car," Lin Chuan chuckled.

Song Xiaojia kept her head down, silent, and was half-pushed, half-pulled by Lin Chuan into the car. Moreover, Lin Chuan, with a clear intent, opened the backseat door – the purpose of which was quite clear. Song Xiaojia, surprisingly, did not refuse but followed Lin Chuan into the car.

The two of them sat in the backseat, looking at the pitch darkness outside the window.

Lin Chuan chuckled and said, "Xiao Jia, you have to listen to me."

"Listen... listen to what?" Song Xiaojia said awkwardly.

"What do you think?" Lin Chuan's wicked smile had completely exposed his lecherous nature. As he spoke, Lin Chuan proceeded to undo her buttons. Surprisingly, Song Xiaojia didn't stop him.

Everything that followed happened very naturally.

Song Xiaojia's top was quickly removed by Lin Chuan, revealing a body as pure and spotless as a sculpture of white jade. Its beauty was breathtaking. Particularly her heaving bosom, which was thrilling beyond compare.

Song Xiaojia covered her face, whispering softly, "Lin Chuan, be... be gentle."

"Don't worry, I will," Lin Chuan nodded.

Lin Chuan might have been brutal and fierce with Yang Zi, but with a woman he liked, he would always be exceptionally gentle. This time was no exception. His tender motions, as he caressed Song Xiaojia, bound their bodies tightly together, skin to skin in earnest intimacy.

Lin Chuan felt the coolness of Song Xiaojia's body akin to jade, embracing her comfortably while also stirring the boiling blood within him.

Soon, the old jeep's shock absorbers were subjected to intense impacts. The car emitted creaking noises which persisted for a long time.

Inside the car, as the temperature rose, Lin Chuan flipped all the backseats down, turning them into a large bed. Song Xiaojia kneeled, with Lin Chuan almost wildly thrusting. The car itself kept emitting sounds of metal fatigue.

After a long time, things quieted down.

Both of them were drenched in sweat. Song Xiaojia was pinned under Lin Chuan, both exhaustedly lying flat.

"Tired?" Lin Chuan asked.

"Not tired," Song Xiaojia shook her head.

"Let's get up, time to head back," Lin Chuan said with a smile.

"No!" Song Xiaojia shook her head, saying: "I just want to stay here a bit longer."

Lin Chuan smiled, "Alright!"

Only after resting in the car for a long while did the two dress themselves. Song Xiaojia felt her clothes were disheveled and her hair was a mess. Luckily, her ear-length bob was easy to manage. Dressed and with flushed cheeks, Song Xiaojia felt quite embarrassed, seemingly uneasy now interacting with Lin Chuan.

"Heading back?" Lin Chuan, with a cigarette hanging from his lips, felt incredibly satisfied post-encounter. Another cigarette simply felt heavenly.

"Mhm," Song Xiaojia nodded.

Afterward, Lin Chuan drove her back to the police station compound.

Before parting, Song Xiaojia wrapped her arms around Lin Chuan's neck and said, "Lin Chuan, you have to take responsibility for me."

"Sure, sure, I'll take responsibility," Lin Chuan nodded hastily.

Song Xiaojia giggled and said, "Hehe, you said it. You have to remember that!"

Having said that, Song Xiaojia promptly opened the door and walked out. Her silhouette quickly disappeared into the police station compound.

Lin Chuan's mouth curved into a mischievous smile as he contentedly drove home.

Traveling from the police station compound to Changlin Factory required passing through the city center, then turning onto Huai Mountain South Road. From the Huai Mountain South Road intersection heading west and after covering a distance of a few hundred meters, one would reach the Changlin Factory's entrance.

The drive was smooth. After passing through the city center, Lin Chuan's unlicensed car surprisingly evaded police detection and easily entered the East District, proceeding directly towards Huai Mountain South Road. Once on the intersection, he headed towards Changlin Factory.

As soon as he arrived at Changlin Factory, Lin Chuan immediately sensed something ominous. The surroundings were pitch black and the air felt extremely cold. His marvelous sixth sense kicked in, giving him an unsettled feeling.

Fortunately, he was home. Lin Chuan parked the car at the front door.

Suddenly, a black shadow shot towards Lin Chuan at high speed.

"Crap!" Lin Chuan exclaimed, quickly ducking towards the passenger seat.

Bang...

The shadow pierced the front windshield with incredible speed and hit the driver's seat.

Rip...

The black shadow plunged into the seat, and upon turning his head, Lin Chuan saw that it was a black boomerang. Without a moment to lose, he kicked his legs and swiftly rolled to the passenger side. He pushed the passenger door open and bolted out.

Whoosh whoosh...

Several hidden weapons were rapidly aimed at Lin Chuan.

Seeing this, Lin Chuan pushed off with his legs and leaped towards the wall. The assailant was aggressive and powerful, forcing Lin Chuan to unleash all his strength to fend off the intrusion. Lin Chuan had an unpleasant premonition that this attacker might even be more formidable than him.

The nature of the hidden weapons used by the attacker offered a clue. Their speed and the tricky angles, slicing through the glass without shattering it, the boomerang pierced the seat with lightning speed.
