As a result, the next day when Ji Bai came home from work and was trying to make out with his wife, he received a call from Shuhang.

This was different from the earlier light hearted conversations, his tone was much more dignified, " I know about Yao Meng's past."

Ji Bai was silent for a moment – he had avoided talking about Yao Meng. However, he also knew that if Shuhang was determined, he would certainly find someone to investigate.

"Then will you pursue her or not?" Ji Bai asked.

Shuhang did not answer immediately.

It was sunset when he called Ji Bai. His car was parked outside a cafe.

Yao Meng was inside the cafe. Every afternoon, she comes here and sits upstairs for a while. Shuhang was pursuing her very closely, naturally he was clear in his mind.
At that moment, Aa he sat in the car, he watched Yao Meng come out from the cafe. She was still so beautiful and gentle,
" We'll talk about it." He hung up the phone. Quietly across the traffic and the crowd, he looked at her slim back.

Suddenly, across the street a BMW convertible drove over and slowly stopped in front of Yao Meng. Yao Meng smiled sweetly as she walked toward the man in the car.

Shuhang's eyes looked straight ahead all throughout.

Feng Ye was the one who was driving. He wore a suit and as he had shaved off his beard, his whole persona was once again restored to that of a tall and handsome man. Perhaps because of the difficulties/hardships he had gone through, his forehead had more wrinkles than someone of the same age. He came out, opened the passenger door for Yao Meng, and smiled as he watched her get in the car.

After the death of Lin Qingyan, the police had thoroughly searched his home. Finally, in a locked basement, they found all the evidenc – potassium cyanide, aphrodisiacs, chains and many photos of the victims. They even found photos of eight victims of the 'Angel Killer' case. This evidence, coupled with Ji Bai's statement of Li Qingyan's confession, finally allowed Feng Ye to be cleared of charges against him.

But there were several other missing persons about whom the police could find no information or any bodies. They could not determine if Lin Qingyan was responsible. The police could not even discover if he had hidden them in other places.

In accordance with the will of Lin Qingyan, his huge estate/property was all left to Yao Meng. However, according to the Hong Kong lawyers' estimates, about one-third had been inherited from Ms Qin, that is, Feng Ye's mother. Yao Meng agreed to give up her rights for this part of the estate, and it was returned to Feng Ye. The handover procedures were in progress.

They had both been harmed by Lin Qingyan, but they also had the same set of friends. While they were sad and indignant, they readily admitted Feng Ye in their circle one again.

Feng Ye was here to pick up Yao Meng today, as he had invited a few of their high school classmates to his villa for a party

As Yao Meng sat in the car, Feng Ye softly said, "For dinner, I have arranged for a barbecue, and your favorite caramel pudding.

Yao Meng: "Thank you."

The afternoon sun was a little hot. Feng Ye bend down and saw that her slender neck had reddened under the sun. With a hand on her back, he asked, "Is it too hot? Should I roll up the windows?"

Yao Meng smiled and shook her head: "No, the sun is fine."

Feng Ye nodded his head and stood behind her. As his gaze moved sideways, he noticed a Cadillac and a tall man beside the car staring at them.
