The silly and embarrassed smile on Mu Chen’s face froze completely because of Li Yan’s words. He suddenly raised his head and pointed at Zhao Youlin tremblingly. He said, “You, you, you… What did you call her just now?”

Li Yan looked at Mu Chen’s extremely shocked appearance and frowned. He coldly said, “This is Ms. Zhao Youlin.”

Mu Chen was still stunned. “You’re the person we’re looking for today? Zhao Youlin?”

Zhao Youlin held back the urge to touch someone’s head. She smiled and said, “If there is no other person in the Zhao family with this name, then it should be me.”

“You, you, you… you have the same name as Sister Lin!”

The smile on Zhao Youlin’s face froze for a moment. Then, she smiled even brightly. “Oh? Have I not told you before? The reason why Sister Lin and I got to know each other online was because we happened to have the same name. What a wonderful fate, isn’t it?”

When Zhao Youlin said this, a flash of light flashed in her eyes quickly. A wonderful fate? Who could say no?

Although there were many people with the same name in this world, I was resurrected in another body with the same name. Who could say that this was not a kind of fate?

“…No, you never told me about this.” Mu Chen looked embarrassed.

Was it his illusion? Why did he feel like he saw the same bad taste in this person just like Sister Lin for a moment?

The name could indeed determine the temperament. This person must have done it on purpose. She was doing it on purpose!

‘Here we go again.’ Li Yan looked at the two people who were chatting happily with a sullen face. He clenched his fists that were hanging at the side of his body without a trace.

This uncomfortable feeling that seemed like only he was excluded and the feeling of having no choice but to look from the side helplessly were really uncomfortable and annoying.

“All right, I’ll stop teasing you. Let’s get back to business.” After Zhao Youlin had fun bullying someone, she wisely returned to the topic. She led the two to the sofa at the side and said, “Please have a seat.”

Li Yan and Mu Chen were sitting on one side of the sofa, while Zhao Youlin was sitting on the other side of the sofa.

As soon as they sat down, Li Yan took the lead and said, “Ms. Zhao, in order to cooperate with our investigation, we now hope that you can give us a specific explanation of what happened that day.”

“No problem,” Zhao Youlin replied without hesitation. “It was about eight or nine in the morning as I happened to send my child to kindergarten on his first day of school. After sending my child, I worried that he would not be comfortable in the kindergarten, so I stayed there for about half an hour. After that, I got in the car and we had an elder onboard, we were sending her back home. Not long after the car started moving, my driver noticed that there was a car following us. After a while, the car following us started to hit our car from behind.”

“Was there anyone else in the car besides you and your driver?”

“There was the elder.” Zhao Youlin glanced at Li Yan. “I just said that we were preparing to send this elder home. Besides, Officer Li saw it as well, she was injured as she knocked her head.”

Li Yan tried his best to recall the scene that day. After making sure that he remembered a woman with an injured head, he said, “What happened later? How did you guys go to the forest by the sea?”

“When I noticed something was wrong, I called my secretary. He was surprised and panicked, so he asked us to buy some time and wait for his rescue. At that time, we were just near the bay, so we thought of using the complex terrain on the beach to buy some time. Unexpectedly, we made a mistake during the chaos. My driver accidentally got into a small car accident on the bay and drove the car into the forest.”

As Zhao Youlin talked about this, Uncle Zhao happened to come over with tea. He put the cups of tea in front of them. Then, he bowed and left.

“After the accident, my driver was injured and unconscious. Another person in the car and I also suffered minor injuries. At this time, those people who hit us from behind were still chasing after us. In desperation, we could only hide in the forest. We made use of the terrain in the forest to buy some time and protect ourselves…”

Li Yan glanced at Mu Chen next to him and muttered. Then, he asked, “Not to be rude, but who was the gentleman next to you when we found you that day?”

“Oh, he is the son of the elder who was riding the car at that time. He happened to be nearby at that time. When he heard that his mother and I were in danger, he ran over. Before you guys found me, we happened to meet.”

“In this case, what is the relationship between the person who reported the case and you, Ms. Zhao?”

“We’re just friends. He was on the same road where I was attacked. He recognized me, who was in the car, and called the police.”

Zhao Youlin’s answer was perfect. Li Yan and Mu Chen exchanged glances. They nodded and asked the most important question, “There is another question. It is about you shooting someone that day…”

‘Here it comes!’ Her eyes slightly narrowed, and her movement of holding the teacup stopped as well.

Right after she shot that person that day, Zhao Youlin had expected that these people would definitely ask about this in the future, and she… had already prepared what to say.

“This is actually nothing. You guys should know that there are many people who want to kill people like us. This incident is the best example. So, our elders would usually let us learn some things to defend ourselves so that we have the ability to protect ourselves when we encounter these kinds of things. This is the same as many girls now who learn something like taekwondo and karate to defend themselves from perverts and protect themselves to not be injured.”

Li Yan was silent for a moment, but it was somewhat difficult for him to accept Zhao Youlin’s explanation. He said with a sullen face, “The precision of the marksmanship shown by you that day was not at the level of martial arts just for self-protection.”

Zhao Youlin chuckled and said smoothly, “What you said is wrong, Officer Li. If I’m not skillful in martial arts, how can I protect myself? If I can’t protect myself, what’s the use of learning it? Besides, you saw the situation that day clearly, Officer Li. The reason why I shot was to protect myself. As for the accuracy, you saw that at that time as well.. My friend was shot by the killer and injured in order to save me. As someone who had been rescued, shouldn’t I be sad and angry when my friend was injured because of myself? Officer Li, you should know that when a person is extremely angry, she is very likely to do something that she can’t do normally, isn’t it?”
