C142 (1/2)

Soon, Liang Aiying arrived.

Liang Aiying was a middle-aged woman with a stooped back and a face full of wrinkles that made her seem kind and honest. If one looked at her absentmindedly, one would think that she was suffering from Alzheimer's disease.

With her hands behind her back, she slowly walked into the room and saw a little girl in front of her. She immediately smiled and said, ”Good afternoon, little girl.”

”Greetings, Aunt Liang.” ”Actually, I've troubled you to find out more about Zhao Jie's condition,” she said.

Upon hearing this, the smile on Liang Aiying's face immediately disappeared and turned into a sorrowful expression.

Bai Nuxin carefully observed her expression. After a few seconds of silence, she continued, ”Aunt Liang, what kind of person do you think Zhao Jie is?”

Liang Aiying was silent and did not answer immediately.

”You don't have to be afraid. Just say it. We will keep everything you say a secret for you.”

At this point, Liang AIying let out a long sigh and said, ”If it wasn't for our Master Zhao, who took me in three years ago, I would have been alone. I don't know if I could have survived until now …” As she spoke, Liang Aiying actually started to cry. She sobbed and looked sad as she said, ”You must find the murderer. This is too despicable. Master Zhao is such a good person, why did you kill him …”

I sized up Liang Ai-ying and couldn't help but feel that she was a little ignorant. This Zhao Jie did all sorts of bad things, but she actually thought that he was a good person? Sigh, perhaps it was because she had received a favor from someone. Some people were like this, receiving a favor from someone, they would think that that person was a peerless great person.

Bai Nuxin declined to comment and continued asking, ”From what you've said, Zhao Jie must be very good to you, right?”

Liang AIying slowly nodded her head and did not say anything.

”Then, do you think Zhao Jie has any shortcomings?”

Liang Aiying thought for a moment and murmured, ”Master Zhao is a very nice person, very approachable and easy to get along with. If there's a flaw, it's that he likes to bring some cats back and make the house dirty …”

”He not only likes to bring his cat back, but he also likes to bring his woman back, doesn't he?”

After a few seconds of silence, she said, ”I'm just a servant and have no right to care about these things. I don't care about these things, all I know is that Lord Zhao treats me very well, and he died just like that. I really can't accept it.

Bai Nanxin nodded and said, ”Alright, thank you for your cooperation. You should go back first. We'll find the murderer as soon as possible.”

After Liang Aiying had left, Bai Nanxin could not help but sigh. ”I'm finally going to surface.”

I was speechless. ”The questions you asked seemed to have nothing to do with this case. Are you sure that's okay?”

”Actually, we already have a lot of leads on the case,” said Bai Nanxin. ”If you ask me about the case, that would be superfluous.”

When I heard that, I was immediately displeased. It was evident that Bai Nanxin was also very pretentious. I said, ”Then why did you continue asking?”

Bai Nanxin smiled faintly as if she was forgiving an ignorant child. She said, ”I won't say anymore. Zhao Manzhi is coming.”

I looked up and saw a girl walk in. She was wearing a white dress with pink lace on it. Her face didn't have any makeup on, but it gave off a feeling of a natural sculpture.

I looked at her and nodded, thinking, well, in general, she's pretty.

At this moment, I suddenly felt as if my toes had been set on fire. It was so painful that I had to breathe heavily. Looking down, I realized that Bai Nuxin's panting high heels had actually landed on my toes. The heels of her feet were still continuously twisting and turning. The heels of those high heels drilled into my toes like a drill, causing me to grimace in pain.

However, it seemed as if nothing had happened to Bai Nuxin. She smiled at Zhao Manzhi and said, ”Hello, Ms. Zhao. Please take a seat.”
