Chapter 042 Her Belief_1

"When did you return?"

In the shaded alley, two figures – one tall, one short – walked side by side.

Jiang Ruan popped a sweet into her mouth, squinting contentedly.

Looking down at her, Lu Yiyu, who held a cigarette between his teeth, said, "I've just come back to the country. I'm unoccupied, so I thought I would come see you."

He chuckled with an unclear meaning, "Now you're putting on quite a show."

Jiang Ruan shrugged, "A bit of showboating buys me some freedom without it affecting my grades. Isn't that a good thing?"

Lu Yiyu said, "They are just falling into the trap you've set."

Jiang Ruan raised an eyebrow, without denying his statement.

"How's the investigation into Little Mute's case going?"

She squinted her eyes, looking at the blurred boundary bathed in sunlight, and asked.

Lu Yiyu didn't respond. Instead, he took out a metallic lighter and lit the cigarette tucked in his mouth.
