"Alright, we will monitor everything to ensure your safety."
I took a deep breath and dialed Shangguan Ming's number.
"Shangguan Ming, I promise you. I will change my testimony." I forced my voice to tremble. "And I'll give you those documents."
There was a moment of silence on the other end. "Good, I knew you were a smart person."
"Where do we meet?"
"The usual place, don't try anything funny."
After hanging up, I looked at the officer, who nodded at me.
An hour later, I stood at the entrance of an abandoned factory, my heart pounding like a drum.
This place was remote and deserted. Shangguan Ming had once tricked me into coming here for a moody photoshoot.
How ironic it was to think about it.
"Linghua!" Hu Lan's voice called out from the darkness.
I turned around and saw Shangguan Ming pushing a bound Hu Lan into a small, enclosed room, holding a fruit knife in his hand.
Xiao Yu was silent, blindfolded, as if asleep.
Shangguan Ming gestured for me to enter the room. Then he closed the iron door behind us. It was clear he was worried about police capture; this room had a tunnel he had prepared for his escape route.
"Let them go," I said, struggling to suppress the urge to rush forward.
Shangguan Ming smiled slightly. "First, give me the documents."
I took a document from my bag and slowly walked towards him.
Just as we were about to make contact, a gunshot shattered the night air.
"Police! Don't move!"
Shangguan Ming's expression changed drastically. He snatched the document from my hands, dropped the knife, and forcefully pushed Hu Lan towards me before turning to flee through the tunnel.
Capturing him was not my responsibility; I trusted the police.
I caught Hu Lan and used a fruit knife to cut the ropes.
But then I saw a strange smile spread across her face.
"I'm sorry, Linghua."
Before I could react, a sharp pain shot through my abdomen.
It turned out Hu Lan had stabbed me with the fruit knife.
I staggered backward, looking at her in disbelief.
"Why?"
Hu Lan forced a smile. "I hate him, and I hate you." Then she shouted, "Murder! Shangguan Ming has killed!"
What a clever move—two birds with one stone. Shangguan Ming was doomed as well.
I finally understood that Hu Lan was never a victim; she had always been a vengeful spirit.
A wave of dizziness washed over me, and my body uncontrollably fell backward.
I lay on the ground, feeling life slipping away.
"Linghua! The ambulance is on its way; you must hold on!" The police broke through the iron gate, and Jiang Feng was the first to rush to my side, gripping my hand tightly.
I struggled to open my eyes and looked at his anxious face.
"Jiang Feng, if I..."
"No, don't say that. You're going to be fine." His voice trembled with emotion.
Suddenly, I realized that perhaps there were still people in this world who truly cared about me.
The sound of the ambulance siren grew closer.
My consciousness began to fade, and the last thing I saw was Jiang Feng's tear-filled eyes.
“Linghua, I love you.”
These words shone like a light, piercing through the darkness of my world.
I closed my eyes, sinking into the deep shadows.
I didn’t understand why this was so unfair to me.
I could hardly imagine why Hu Lan would do such a thing.
I had intended to tell Vice Captain Jiang right away, to inform him that the culprit was Hu Lan.
But it seemed that, just like in a television drama, before I could reveal the truth, it might...
In the darkness, Jiang Feng felt like a true beacon of hope.
Yet, I found it hard to feel love for him.
I was a mother with two Honeymoon Cruise ren.
I also had quite an inheritance.
Was he really approaching me out of love?
I didn’t know...
