Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 834

Chapter 834: Chapter 834: Too Late for Regrets

"Later, I found out he approached me to help bring clients to his studio. I did that, but he complained that the clients I brought weren’t high-end enough to appreciate his designs, and we broke up."

"That’s when I realized you two never actually broke up. I was too ashamed to face you and left Jing City."

"Qiu Yang, don’t do anything foolish. He’s not worth it; even if he won first place in the competition, with his personality, he won’t achieve anything."

"Moreover, he knew before he committed suicide that everything was Song Wanqiu’s fault. You can’t blame anyone else for his suicide."

Seeing the anxious expression on her friend’s face, Qiu Yang looked pale.

Lin Zhiyi continued, "Qiu Yang, you and Zhang Zhe were both used. Don’t wait until it’s too late to regret it."

Qiu Yang collapsed on the floor.

"How could it be like this?"

Captain Xing seized the opportunity and immediately led his team inside.

Seeing no dangerous weapons, they did not pin Qiu Yang to the ground.

They simply put handcuffs on her and pulled her up.

"You—couldn’t you have done more research before acting? Didn’t you see the evidence you exposed was concrete? Couldn’t you just find a contestant from that time to get the whole story?"

Qiu Yang was dazed, but there seemed to be a hint of clarity in her eyes.

Captain Xing sighed, "Alright, it’s too late now to say anything, let’s go. You’re so young, why get so worked up over a man?"

As they reached Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen, he paused.

"You two, come to the station with me as well."

"Okay."

Lin Zhiyi nodded obediently.

But Chen Huan couldn’t go; she had to be taken to the hospital again.

As Chen Huan was carried away, she pointed at Lin Zhiyi.

"You’re ruthless."

"Take care and heal." Lin Zhiyi comforted.

"Considering the assets I’ve received, if you need me to testify, just say the word. After all, I owe you."

"Okay."

Lin Zhiyi nodded, unreservedly.

...

At the police station.

Qiu Yang seemed severely affected; it took an hour of questioning before she spoke her first sentence.

"It’s not like that; someone instructed me to do this."

She finally came to her senses.

After Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen finished giving their statements, Captain Xing offered them each a cup of water.

"We meet again."

"Captain Xing, please don’t joke." Lin Zhiyi sighed.

"I just checked on the interrogation, and as you suspected, someone fed her information to quickly turn her into a paparazzo, but don’t get your hopes up too high. She has no idea who the person is."

Captain Xing said this and couldn’t help but sigh.

He sighed for Qiu Yang.

"This young woman is capable, talented, and beautiful; she could earn a lot in a year. Why get into kidnapping?"

Lin Zhiyi shook her head, feeling sorry as well.

Gong Chen, however, remained rational and asked, "Did she mention who the person behind it might be?"

Captain Xing replied, "She said someone provided her with evidence about Zhang Zhe being forced to die, along with his suicide note, which made her believe it wholeheartedly. But she thinks the person must be significant because the information she received was astonishing."

"Does that mean she has other information at her disposal?"

"Yes, I’ve already sent someone to retrieve it."

"Wait, tell your people to stop immediately." Gong Chen interjected.

"Why?" Captain Xing asked.

"The person gave such crucial information to Qiu Yang; wouldn’t it be logical to keep an eye on her? Aren’t you worried your officers driving police cars there will prompt them to destroy the evidence beforehand?"

"That’s true."

Captain Xing realized the potentially dangerous nature of the exposed content.

Suddenly, she covered her face with her hands and began to cry.

How could she not regret it?

But what good would it do?

Hearing her sobbing gradually quiet down, Lin Zhiyi asked, "What else do you know about the person who helped you?"

Qiu Yang took a deep breath, her eyes swollen.

"After seeing Zhang Zhe’s suicide note, I was indeed angry but didn’t immediately seek revenge. I wanted to investigate clearly before deciding. But the investigation went unexpectedly smoothly, and that information flooded my mind, leaving me incapable of calming down."

"Was the information given to you by someone else?" Lin Zhiyi asked.

"Yes." Qiu Yang nodded, "The person said a lot, making me fully believe them. She told me to think it over, and I agreed. Looking back now, I was used, wasn’t I?"

Lin Zhiyi remained silent.

Qiu Yang laughed bitterly at herself, then suddenly turned to Lin Zhiyi.

"That person’s real target was actually you!"

"No wonder she always told me to go after you first. If it were true revenge, I should have targeted Chen Huan first, as she doesn’t have someone like the Third Young Master to protect her."

Lin Zhiyi frowned, "She?"

"A woman. Her voice is very soft, and sometimes I can’t even discern her tone."

"Isn’t there anything distinctive about her?" Lin Zhiyi asked.

Qiu Yang looked down, seeming unable to recall anything.

Driving, Captain Xing couldn’t bear to see it. When it comes to interrogation, he’s the expert.

He immediately asked, "How do you usually contact each other?"

"By phone, but it’s a foreign number, so probably nothing can be traced."

"When does she usually contact you? Think carefully." Captain Xing asked earnestly.

Qiu Yang pondered for a while.

"It’s not at a fixed time. Whenever something happens on Lin Zhiyi’s side, she tells me about it faster than I can react."

Captain Xing listened and then smiled.
