Chapter 399: Sinister Shui Online, Are You Really Stupid Or Faking It?

Lin Qianchen’s eyes, now devoid of vitality, carried a shattered grin as she watched the figure walk further and further away from her.

Chu Ningyi placed his arm around Shui Anluo and led her out. However, when they arrived at the doorway, they heard an extremely hoarse voice.

“Shui Anluo, you may have escaped this time but you’ll most definitely be dead soon.”

Chu Ningyi and Shui Anluo turned around at the same time. Chu Ningyi’s expression was ice-cold and Shui Anluo reached out to pull Chu Ningyi back before he could walk over. She looked at the woman on the ground who was venting more than trying to breathe.

“At least you won’t be able to see me die,” Shui Anluo spoke slowly as she let Chu Ningyi go and walked over. She bent down and whispered into her ear, “Lin Qianchen, at the end of the day, you’re just a scapegoat. My heart bleeds for you.”

Lin Qianchen’s eyes, which had lost focus, opened wide. She stared fixedly at Shui Anluo.

Shui Anluo smirked. “Lin Qianchen, it’s not that I won’t save you but because I had given you a chance earlier on but you still haven’t realized that you’re in the wrong. If I saved you, I’d be the dead person here.”

“You, you know…”

“No, I don’t know anything but Lin Qianchen, I’m no Virgin Mary. I…” Shui Anluo said and whispered into her ear again, using the softest voice. “Want to live.”

Once Shui Anluo finished speaking, she got up and looked at the horrified woman. She smirked again and turned around, heading back to Chu Ningyi’s side.

Lin Qianchen lay gasping on the ground as Shui Anluo’s crystal-clear voice echoed in her muddled mind. She said that she wants to live because she knew that she was also someone who had threatened her survival.

She had planned all this, including the fact that she has become a scapegoat. Shui Anluo had single-handedly planned it all.

This woman was absolutely sinister!

So she had lost. In the end, she could not defeat Shui Anluo!

After Shui Anluo walked out of the police station, she kept her head down and did not say a word. Chu Ningyi stayed silent as well.

Chu Ningyi turned back to the police station. The police were processing the new detainee and those who were tasked with sending the victim to the hospital were doing just that.

Thirty million, that was really a large sum.

Lin Qianchen’s last words clearly held a different meaning.

Shui Anluo glanced at Chu Ningyi when she got into the car then asked as if irritated, “Why is it her?”

“Did you really hope that it’d turn out to be Yuan Jiayi that much?” Chu Ningyi got into the car and asked profoundly as he stared at an infuriated Shui Anluo.

As Chu Ningyi spoke, his gently tapped on the steering wheel.

Shui Anluo lowered her head. Her fingers, which had been trembling slightly, soon returned to normal. She looked up at Chu Ningyi and seemed rather angry when she said, “That’s right, then I can just get rid of her too. Now it has nothing to do with her, that’s just great.”

“Get rid?” Chu Ningyi raised his brows as he repeated the words.

Uh…

Shui Anluo’s small face looked rather awkward yet sinister as if she were vexed about accidentally blurting it all out.

“This…”

“So, a jealous woman is indeed terrifying.” Chu Ningyi smiled faintly and started the car.

Shui Anluo knocked her head against the window and did not say anything to object against this.

Since what Director Chu said made sense, she had nothing to refute this.

Director Chu’s affirmative, straight face seemed to say: ‘Words that you let slip depict your truest thoughts’.

The car started moving slowly and Shui Anluo stared at Lin Qianchen who was being carried out. Her heart felt a little heavy as she said, “I didn’t kill Boren but Boren died because of me.” Shui Anluo had spoken in a distracted voice.

“Feeling remorseful?” Director Chu asked the question in a focused manner.

“No, I just think that she’d most likely die with a lot of regrets if I’m still alive.” Shui Anluo sighed, sympathizing with Lin Qianchen. However, she did not say these words in a distracted manner this time.

Chu Ningyi granted her focused words a chilly gaze.

“Shui Anluo…” Chu Ningyi suddenly said.

Shui Anluo turned around and blinked at him.

Chu Ningyi had started the car but did not drive off as if he was wondering how to ask this question. However, in the end, he only shook his head and started driving. “Nothing.”

He had wanted to ask if Shui Anluo was really stupid or was she faking it?

Lan Xin watched from a rental car near the police station as Chu Ningi drove away. She slowly took her sunglasses off and murmured, “Lin Qianchen, if there’s anyone to blame, it’s Chu Ningyi for being too smart. There’s no point for you to stay alive anyway so why not become my scapegoat?” Lan Xin put on her sunglasses on again and asked the driver to start the car.
