I'm Not the Murderer (6)

Li Canxing looked at Li Fanxing in silence.

The look gave the latter the creeps. Li Fanxing pressed a hand to her chest and forced out a smile. "Of course not… Canxing, shouldn't you be with Song Shi? Why are you back?"

"Song Shi is dead. Didn't you hear?" Li Canxing suddenly raised her voice.

"What?" Li Fanxing feigned a surprised look. "Gosh! How come he's dead?!"

Their father was even more astonished. "What happened?!"

Li Canxing smiled. "He… was killed. I saw someone stab him with my own eyes…"

"Canxing!" Li Fanxing cut her off, her smile perfect. "It must have been such a hard blow for you. Come, let's get some rest. Don't think too much, ok?"

Their father took her words at face value. "That's right. Don't be afraid, Canxing, I'm here for you! I'll protect you no matter what!"

Li Fanxing dragged Li Canxing back to her room, acting all sincere.
