Not From the Same World

"I can't leave now." Nian Xi ended the call.

How could she leave Jiang Yuning there and go home alone? 

She was supposed to protect him. 

She walked out of the room. Lawyer Mao, Uncle Han, and the others were still talking about the case in the living room. Seeing her, Uncle Han said, "Mr. Jiang's parents are on their way here. They'll probably arrive this afternoon. Thank you for taking care of us, the last couple of days. I have booked tickets for you, so you can leave this afternoon." 

Nian Xi was going to say something, but Zhan Hong interrupted her and said, "Mr. Han, we are so sorry that we couldn't help." 

"Captain, did you agree to leave too?" Nian Xi couldn't believe that. 

"The Director called me," said Zhan Hong with a complicated feeling. "He told us to go back. We are not helpful here, and there are other cases to be solved." 

"But…" Nian Xi didn't want to go.
