Chapter 1577: Chapter 1581: Tit for Tat
Gu Junzhu saw Zhou Yun and couldn’t help but lift the corners of his lips: "Captain Zhou? What a coincidence, we’ve met again!"
Zhou Yun gave a dry laugh, "Indeed, Young Master Gu, you’re..."
Gu Junzhu slightly moved his lips, "Sending my wife’s two brothers home."
Zhou Yun: "..."
So... the Xie Family and the Gu Family are... in-laws?
Zhou Yun was also a third-generation military member, but his grandfather’s position wasn’t as high as Senior Master Gu’s.
Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei hadn’t held their wedding yet, and the Gu Family was good at keeping secrets, so not many people knew that Ye Xingbei was the Xie Family’s granddaughter.
Zhou Yun had already had several dealings with Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei. He knew there was a girl by Gu Junzhu’s side, stunningly beautiful, cherished beyond measure by Fifth Lord of Gu. Almost every time he saw Gu Junzhu, he could see that beautiful girl.
But he never knew that Ye Xingbei was actually the Xie Family’s daughter.
This is truly a perfect match of equals if there ever was one.
Both Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei are quite lucky!
The Xie Family and the Gu Family turned out to be in-laws!
Therefore, today’s case became even more complicated.
But no matter how complicated, there’s no choice; it’s his duty, and it must be done!
He coughed, turned around, and waved to his subordinates, signaling them to start recording.
He looked toward Xie Yunlin and Xie Jinfei: "This time, I’ve come to see Young Master Xie. This morning, someone found Bai Xiaodie unconscious in the outskirts. After forensic examination, it was discovered she had been abused by multiple people, leading to a torn lower T, multiple injuries, and due to severe shock, she has developed mental issues. She has now been sent to the hospital for treatment."
Zhou Yun paused for a moment here, his gaze fixed on Xie Yunlin.
Xie Yunlin’s expression remained unchanged, his demeanor calm and solemn, his gaze peaceful and profound, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
That’s why Zhou Yun least liked dealing with these outstanding second and third generations.
Each of them was as immovable as a mountain. No matter what he said, their faces seemed as if they were wearing masks, showing no change.
His adept skill at reading expressions was utterly useless against these people.
He paused for a moment, observed Xie Yunlin’s expression, but saw nothing. He could only continue, "After our investigation, we found that Bai Xiaodie was sent home by a car from the Xie Family, and before her incident, she had been living at the Xie Family home for a long time. So we have a few questions to ask Young Master Xie and Second Young Master Xie."
Xie Yunlin slightly tilted his lips, "Please go ahead."
Zhou Yun asked, "Young Master Xie, may I ask why was Bai Xiaodie, who had been staying at the Xie Family for a while, suddenly sent back to her own home by a Xie Family car?"
Xie Yunlin smiled faintly and asked him in return, "Captain Zhou, do you know what it means to be a guest? Have you ever seen a guest who stays at someone else’s home and doesn’t return to their own?"
"..." Zhou Yun coughed, "Then, Young Master Xie, my subordinates found through surveillance around the Bai family that when Bai Xiaodie was sent back home, her condition was very poor. She was carried back by two Xie Family bodyguards. How do you explain that?"
Xie Yunlin said, "When people are sick, they tend to feel more vulnerable and homesick. Haven’t you ever felt that way, Captain Zhou?"
Zhou Yun: "... But that should be when there are relatives at home, right? Bai Xiaodie has no relatives left. When she returned home, it was just an empty house. Your grandmother was her only relative. When she fell ill, she should have hoped to stay by your grandmother’s side."
