Mu Cidian returned to the bedroom.
Xin Zaozao had already gone to bed.
But she had left a faint light on for him.
Mu Cidian joined her, carefully laying down beside Wanwan.
He turned off the light.
The room plunged into darkness.
Only the pale moonlight from the window cast a dim glow, unveiling some hidden shapes in the room.
"Are you asleep?" Mu Cidian suddenly asked.
Xin Zaozao opened her eyes, bathed in the moonlight, and saw Mu Cidian not far in front of her, "Hmm."
"Something that Yin Qin told you…" Mu Cidian paused.
Xin Zaozao involuntarily tightened her grip on the quilt.
"He lied to you," Mu Cidian stated bluntly. "The police did indeed suspect me of murdering Lei Qian, but evidence clearing my name has surfaced in the past few days. I'll go to the police station tomorrow to close the case."
Xin Zaozao silently watched him.
"Don't worry, go to sleep." Mu Cidian gently turned away from her.
Xin Zaozao stared at his broad back.
