A Scapegoat

Huo Yunshen had asked his friend in the Public Security Department to put in a word with his men and let Xu Xiyan and Qi Liya see Huang Guoqiang. But that wasn't all; he went a step further and asked his friend to set up a special investigation team to work on the murder case. The sooner the case was solved, the sooner Huang Guoqiang would be cleared of all suspicion.

By the time Xu Xiyan and Qi Liya arrived at the police station, there was already someone waiting at the door to receive them and take their witness testimony. After that, the two women were allowed to meet with Huang Guoqiang.

"Why are the both of you here? Didn't I tell you not to worry?"

Huang Guoqiang seemed to be in good spirits. He was neither panicked nor tired; he seemed entirely at ease.

"Jing Xi got a friend of hers to let us in. I had to see how you were doing."

The stone Qi Liya had been carrying in her heart finally fell away when she saw Huang Guoqiang.
