Chapter 1042 - 515: Duty Fulfilled? Years of Forbearance
Zhao Mengyao spoke as she took out her phone and played a recording.
"Liu Hanyuan, what do you mean by this? Are you saying that when you said you liked me before, it was all a lie? Were you deliberately deceiving me?"
"Could it be that you’ve lost feelings for me? You just won’t admit it?"
...
"Zhao Mengyao, that’s not what happened. I never thought that way! It’s just that your father did something so excessive to me before. Now I’m even helping him arrange his funeral, which is already more than enough. Not to mention, I have to spend a large amount of money to give him a grand send-off, only to be laughed at by those who hate him."
"You wouldn’t know what I’ve endured all these years. How long I’ve endured it!"
As the recording ended.
Zhao Mengyao took a deep breath too.
Couldn’t help but frown.
"Mr. Luo, now you should understand, right?"
"The reason I’m torn is that I don’t want to condone him if he turns out to be the murderer. The consequences would be unimaginable."
But it seemed the other party was hesitant to speak.
Luo Fei smiled and shook his head.
"Miss Zhao, these matters cannot be generalized."
"Even if he’s complained, it doesn’t mean he’s the murderer."
In Luo Fei’s view.
From an objective perspective.
Liu Hanyuan’s analysis is not wrong.
He hopes his girlfriend can stay away from disputes.
"Mr. Luo, did I mishear you? Are you joking, or did he come to see you before me? Is that why you’re speaking on his behalf?"
But Zhao Mengyao looked incredulous.
In shock.
Luo Fei responded seriously.
"Miss Zhao, I’m just analyzing from my own perspective."
"After all, many times, most people care about their dignity. Even if Liu Hanyuan likes you and treats you like a treasure, it doesn’t mean your father can trample his dignity at will."
"Not to mention, he even agreed to help arrange your father’s funeral, and you two aren’t even married. That’s already more than enough."
Luo Fei’s objective analysis.
Made Zhao Mengyao hesitate.
However, she wasn’t angry either.
She just voluntarily showed weakness.
With a slightly skeptical tone, she asked.
"Mr. Luo, if we put it that way, did I get it wrong? Did I misunderstand him?"
Noticing Zhao Mengyao’s hesitation.
Her tone gradually softened.
Luo Fei also spoke firmly.
"Miss Zhao, I understand your feelings."
"But if you conclude he’s the one who harmed your father based on this alone, then I’d think you’re trying to cover up your own wrongdoing, making it seem more innocent than it is."
"You just want to clear yourself of suspicion, to prove you had nothing to do with your father’s death."
At this moment.
Luo Fei’s words.
Left Zhao Mengyao almost speechless.
"Mr. Luo, you’re joking, right? How could I possibly harm my own father?"
Despite her disbelief.
Luo Fei coldly stated.
"Not necessarily."
"After all, your father has done many excessive things in the past, surrounded by flings."
"You might resent the things your father did. You might bear a grudge against him."
But Luo Fei only maintained a serious demeanor for a second.
And the next moment, he smiled.
"Of course. Everything I’m saying is mere speculation. I won’t arrest you based on this speculation, so you can rest assured."
Seeing that he was teasing her on purpose.
Zhao Mengyao broke out in a cold sweat.
"Mr. Luo, can’t you stop your heavy breathing when you talk?"
Zhao Mengyao said, cold sweat forming on her forehead.
Seeming a bit embarrassed.
Somewhat at a loss.
Luo Fei smiled reassuringly.
"Miss Zhao, rest assured, the things I said just now were just to give an example."
"I don’t really blame you, and it’s not like I’d arrest you for a few words you said."
Even though Luo Fei looked unfazed.
Zhao Mengyao felt somewhat guilty.
She felt it was a psychological tactic.
So she held back her tears.
"Mr. Luo, no matter how promiscuous or reckless my father was, he’s still my father. Over the years, he protected me so I could grow up safely."
"So, regardless of your thoughts or biases against him, I could never harm him. Rest assured on this point."
Understanding her intention.
Luo Fei said.
"Miss Zhao, if there’s nothing else, I might have to ask you to get out of the car. If you have other questions, or want to communicate, you can wait until our investigation progresses further. I will reach out to you then."
"But before the truth is confirmed, I hope you calm down and don’t act on your own."
Seeing that Luo Fei wanted her to get out of the car.
Zhao Mengyao was dumbfounded.
She wasn’t sure if he believed her or not.
She couldn’t say much.
She just grimaced a little and pouted.
"Mr. Luo, I’ll get out first. I’ll wait for your news."
"Rest assured, I’m not deceiving you, nor would I lie. You can be sure of that."
She sensed his amusement.
Feeling her questioning made him uncomfortable.
Zhao Mengyao dared not say more.
As she got out of the car.
