Chapter 1587: 1587

“No, I didn’t . ” Li Jinnan gazed deeply into Ye Youyou’s eyes when he made the denial .

“Did Guan Queye not die?” Ye Youyou asked even though such a turn of events was very unlikely .

Li Jinnan considered his reply for a moment before finally slowly saying, “It was Shen Luo’an . He confessed to the crime . ”

Ye Youyou jerked back in shock . “He confessed to the crime? He was the one who murdered Guan Queye?”

Li Jinnan didn’t say a word . He just gazed at her . His facial features did not move at all . His fathomless and dark eyes held a bevy of emotions that slowly emanated out in all directions .

When Ye Youyou saw his reaction, she seemed to somehow guess something . Did Shen Luo’an suddenly confess to the crime for her sake?

Her heart immediately shot that idea down . That was impossible . Shen Luo’an might not have loved Guan Queye, but all he had for Ye Youyou was hatred through and through . Why would he confess to a crime that he didn’t have to confess to for her sake?

If found guilty of the crime, the lightest sentence he faced was a lifetime imprisonment . Shen Luo’an was in the prime of his life, and a bright future lay ahead of him . If he were imprisoned at such a time, regardless of whether he was guilty or not, his future would be ruined .

Furthermore, how could Shen Luo’an have murdered Guan Queye? All these years, the guilt that he harbored toward Guan Queye had gnawed at his bones . How could he have killed her? That was completely unrealistic, to say the least .

Could it really be because of her?

At that thought, Ye Youyou suddenly found the whole notion laughable .

How is that even possible… All the evidence had been pointing at me . If Shen Luo’an hadn’t stood out, no one would even have suspected him . Was he suddenly trying to seek redemption because he was overcome by guilt for his actions?

Ye Youyou couldn’t comprehend what was going on . She raised her eyes to Li Jinnan and asked, “Has he been locked up?”

“Yeah . ” Li Jinnan embraced her and said, “He’s been taken in for questioning, but Guan Yanhong’s camp doesn’t believe it at all . They insist that you’re the one who killed Guan Queye . They are currently trying to gather evidence to prove Shen Luo’an innocence and that you’re the one responsible . ”

“In other words, I’m currently still a suspect . ” Ye Youyou looked at Li Jinnan . She wasn’t sure whether to rejoice or lament .

Li Jinnan gently rested his warm palm on her head and replied, “Yeah, but taking into consideration the fact that you are pregnant, they released you from prison . You can say that you’re free for the time being . ”

Ye Youyou made a soft sound of acknowledgement . Gazing at Li Jinnan’s chest, she said, “I want to see him . ”

She wanted to see him . She really wanted to see him . After the divorce, never had Ye Youyou possessed such a strong desire to see him . The feeling suddenly surged within her and was uncontrollable .

She raised her eyes and met Li Jinnan’s . He gazed at her for a moment and finally answered, “OK . ”

–

“I’ll ask you again one more time . Did you kill Guan Queye? If this fact is confirmed, you may be sentenced to death . ”

The interrogation was taking place . The police officer stared at Shen Luo’an with seriousness in his eyes .

Shen Luo’an was handcuffed to the interrogation chair and dressed in a prison uniform . His originally weakly stature looked even more pathetic .

Faced with such an interrogation, he was clearly fatigued . He replied yet again, “I am sure that I killed her . I didn’t want to marry her, so I chose to murder her . I used the latest poisonous chemical that I developed and slipped it into her tumbler, then I pretended to run away from the wedding . That way, I could escape suspicion . ”

“What made you suddenly change your mind and own up to the crime?” the officer asked .
