Chapter 199 Go and meet Lin Yuyan
Lu An was extremely anxious and rushed back to the police station.
When he arrived, beads of sweat still clung to his forehead, and his clothes were slightly wrinkled from the previous fight. After rushing into the police station, he ran straight towards Fu Xiuheng's location.
Fu Xiuheng paced back and forth in the police station corridor with a furrowed brow, his eyes filled with anxiety and exhaustion.
Upon seeing Lu An return, he immediately went to greet him and asked anxiously, "Lu An, how is the situation?"
Lu An, panting heavily but with a hint of joy on his face, said...
"President, we've caught our informant! It took some effort, but thankfully we've got him under control."
Fu Xiuheng's eyes lit up instantly, and a surge of joy welled up in his heart. He excitedly grabbed Lu An's shoulders, his voice trembling slightly.
"Great!"
This is a crucial breakthrough. With this informant, if we can expose Zhou Lan's conspiracy, Lin Yuyan's side might waver.
If she relents, Fu Xingze's situation will take a turn for the better, and he might be given a lighter sentence.
Fu Xiuheng's face lit up with a long-lost look of hope. Lu An nodded slightly and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"However, President, that informant is very stubborn and won't say anything. We brought back the equipment and documents. Now the key is to crack the equipment. We should be able to find useful evidence."
Fu Xiuheng released Lu An's shoulder, paced back and forth a few steps as if deep in thought, and then said firmly.
"Okay, we must arrange for someone to crack those devices as soon as possible. I'll go meet with Lin Yuyan now and give her a hint about this, and see her reaction. Lu An, you go and handle the follow-up matters first, and let me know immediately if there's any progress."
Lu An replied, "Okay, President, don't worry."
Fu Xiuheng took a deep breath, straightened his clothes, and strode toward the interrogation room where Lin Yuyan was being held.
The door closed slowly behind him with a dull thud.
He stood at the doorway, paused slightly, and then his gaze swept coldly towards Lin Yuyan like a knife.
Lin Yuyan sat in the chair, her hair somewhat disheveled. Her once delicate face was now replaced by exhaustion and dishevelment, but her eyes remained stubborn and indifferent. When her gaze met Fu Xiuheng's, she did not flinch in the slightest.
"What, Fu Xiuheng, are you here to laugh at me?" Lin Yuyan spoke first, a mocking smile curving her lips, but her voice carried an undisguised weakness.
She tilted her head slightly, as if trying to maintain her last shred of dignity.
Fu Xiuheng frowned slightly, a hint of annoyance flashing in his eyes. He slowly approached Lin Yuyan, each step seemingly carrying invisible pressure.
"Lin Yuyan, do you think I still have the mind to laugh at you?"
His voice was deep and cold, like the cold wind in a cold night.
"Stop making unfounded assumptions about others with your petty mind; think more about yourself."
As he spoke, he placed his hands on the table, leaned forward, and stared directly into Lin Yuyan's eyes.
Lin Yuyan's heart tightened. She saw an unprecedented seriousness and indifference in Fu Xiuheng's eyes, which made her feel flustered.
But she quickly calmed down, glared back at Fu Xiuheng, and said in a feigned composure.
"What do I have to worry about? Anyway, if I fall into your hands, the worst that can happen is that I die."
Her hands clenched unconsciously, her nails digging deep into her palms, yet she felt no pain; only her rapidly beating heart betrayed her inner unease.
Fu Xiuheng snorted coldly, straightened up, and crossed his arms over his chest.
"Do you think death is so easy? If you still want a glimmer of hope, tell us everything you know about Zhou Lan, and about your conspiracy with her. Otherwise, not only will you be doomed, but you will also implicate many others."
His eyes held a hint of warning, like a hunter eyeing its prey, not missing a single subtle change in Lin Yuyan's expression.
Lin Yuyan was visibly stunned when she heard Fu Xiuheng's words, as if she couldn't believe they came from his mouth.
A moment later, she suddenly threw her head back and burst into laughter, the sound echoing in the interrogation room, carrying a hint of madness and mockery.
"Fu Xiuheng, you're truly laughable. You were so devoted to me, loving me with all your heart, your love so deep that everyone knew it. And now? How can you say such heartless things to me? By denying me like this, aren't you denying your past self?"
She laughed as she stared at Fu Xiuheng with sharp eyes, her smile full of bitterness and disdain, her hands trembling slightly with excitement.
Fu Xiuheng's face instantly turned bright red, and a feeling of embarrassment and anger welled up in his heart.
His eyes widened, veins bulged on his forehead, and he slammed his hand on the table with a loud "bang".
"Lin Yuyan, shut up! I'm not here to discuss these sentimental matters with you. Xingze is still suffering, his future is hanging by a thread, and I have no time to waste on this useless chatter!"
His voice was hoarse with anger, and his hands were clenched into fists as if he was trying his best to restrain the urge to fight.
Lin Yuyan's ears were ringing from Fu Xiuheng's roar, but she still stubbornly raised her head and looked at Fu Xiuheng coldly.
"Then what are you here to discuss if not these things? Don't think I can't see that everything you're doing right now is just to please Lin Qingran. You want to impress her and get her to forgive your past mistakes, so you're pretending to save Fu Xingze here."
Her eyes were filled with resentment and jealousy, her lips trembled slightly, but her expression remained indifferent, as if she were using indifference to mask her inner resentment.
Upon hearing Lin Yuyan's sharp and incisive accusations, Fu Xiuheng felt as if he had been struck by a violent storm, instantly plunging him into a quagmire of extreme inner turmoil.
His brows furrowed into a deep frown, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes, as if someone had suddenly exposed the most hidden scar in his heart.
Immediately afterwards, his lips trembled slightly, and he subconsciously raised his voice to retort.
"Lin Yuyan, you're utterly lying! I swear to God, I have absolutely no such despicable thoughts as you claim. All my efforts have been solely for Xingze's sake. He is my own flesh and blood. As his father, how could I stand by and watch his life be wantonly destroyed without doing anything?"
As he spoke, he unconsciously waved his hands wildly, as if trying to completely dispel the malice woven in Lin Yuyan's words, but his heart began to tremble under the weight of this accusation.
Looking at Fu Xiuheng's reaction, Lin Yuyan's lips curled into a cold smile, her eyes becoming even more deep and cold, as if she wanted to see right through Fu Xiuheng.
