Chapter 512: 239 Astonishing the World (first update)
Her sincere devotion was met with deception and betrayal, and she even lost her life.
Perhaps it was the heavens who pitied her unjust death and allowed her to be reborn into Ming Xin’s body to uncover the truth.
Ye Zhen held her head in pain as her whole body curled up.
Xue An didn’t kill her personally, but he had hinted at Liang Xiaohong.
Using another to carry out his dirty deed.
How heartless!
For two years, he had been pretending well. Why would he suddenly harbor the intent to kill? Ye Zhen couldn’t comprehend.
Perhaps he got tired.
“I will definitely make this shameless couple suffer a fate worse than death,” Ye Zhen said through gritted teeth, her eyes filled with hatred.
Ming Jing answered a phone call and said indifferently, “Just now, Xue An has been taken away by a lawyer.”
Ye Zhen was stunned and said incredulously, “Why?”
“His lawyer is Li Qingzhuo, a famous criminal lawyer in the country. Also, your evidence can only prove that Liang Xiaohong entered your home before your death. The two of them lied and are suspected, but there is no direct evidence of the murder. The only way to prove it is through a forensic examination and autopsy, but the two of them must have prepared everything.”
Ye Zhen said unwillingly, “So, do I just watch this shameless couple escape justice?”
Ming Jing smirked, “But the body has already been switched by me.”
Ye Zhen suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with disbelief as she stared at Ming Jing.
“What…what did you say?”
As the two of them openly discussed her own corpse, it felt quite bizarre. Ye Zhen was even more astonished that Ming Jing had already replaced her body.
When did that happen? Before she was reborn into Ming Xin’s body, did Ming Jing already suspect Liang Xiaohong?
She knew that Ming Jing and Liang Xiaohong had become enemies, but she didn’t expect Ming Jing to have prepared a backup plan.
And that backup plan saved her in advance.
“Get a good night’s sleep. Tomorrow morning, we’ll go to the police station to apply for an autopsy,” Ming Jing said and left.
“Ming Jing,” Ye Zhen suddenly called out to her.
Ming Jing stopped but didn’t turn around.
“Thank you…”
“No need to thank me. This is what I owe you,” Ming Jing left without looking back.
Ye Zhen paused, puzzled by her words.
Thinking Ming Jing was referring to Ming Xin, Ye Zhen didn’t dwell on it.
The hotel corridor was covered in soft carpets, and at two in the morning, everything was in deep sleep.
Ming Jing walked soundlessly, her flickering shadow cast on the walls like a ghost.
Early the next morning, Liu Muxue yawned and went downstairs for breakfast. She saw Ming Jing and the two girls entering the elevator and subconsciously followed them.
“Wait for me…”
The elevator door closed, cutting off all traces of Ming Jing.
Liu Muxue sighed and asked Xie Zhen in the restaurant, “Why are you here? Where is Ming Jing?”
“Ming Jing sent me a text message. She has something to do today and won’t attend the academic conference. She asked us to help her take a leave,” Xie Zhen said.
“Who are the two girls with her?” Liu Muxue frowned, feeling that something was wrong.
“Maybe they are Ming Jing’s friends,” Xie Zhen rubbed his nose. He had a slight cold after coming to Jingzhou for a few days.
“Friends? Does she have friends in Jingzhou?” Liu Muxue didn’t believe it.
“She barely has any friends in Jiangzhou, let alone in Jingzhou. Besides, this is her first time here, right?”
Xie Zhen said, “I don’t know. Atchoo!”
Liu Muxue wrinkled her nose in disgust and moved farther away with her food.
Zhao Heng and Song Yinzhang sat down with their breakfast and greeted the others before digging in.
Suddenly, a girl at the next table screamed, “Oh my god, look at the news! Liang Yanran didn’t die by suicide, she was murdered by her manager and Xue An!”
Her words immediately caused a commotion in the restaurant.
With a “plop,” Liu Muxue dropped the half-eaten sandwich on her plate, her eyes wide, “What? Am I hallucinating?”
Xie Zhen hesitated, “It must…probably…maybe…be fake.”
Otherwise, it would be too shocking.
Zhao Heng quickly took out his phone and checked the trending topics— the news had exploded at the top of the list.
Famous media personality Jiu Zhen revealed that Liang Yanran didn’t die by suicide but was killed by her lover. The police are now involved, hoping to bring the real culprits to justice.
This Weibo post was released at three in the morning, and now it was seven o’clock. After four hours of fermentation, it had caused a huge uproar online.
