How are you feeling? Better?
I'm fine, but something has happened to brother Chu Yan
What happened to Chu Yan?
Look
[It's news about Chu Yan's hospital room catching on fire]
I'll head out for a while
I'll go with you
No need, I'll leave first
You take care of yourself
Then you be careful
Thank you, Team Leader Wang
We'll take our leave first. You'll need to come in to the station to help us in our investigation tomorrow
Okay
How is Chu Yan?
The news mentioned that his ward caught on fire. Did he get hurt again?
What are you doing here? Where is Chu Yan?
Mu Mu
Chu Yan is no longer around
When you start learning to joke around
It's not funny at all
I'll go find him
It's true
The police has already investigated the scene
I don't believe you
This can't be real
You're lying to me right?
How I wish all these were false too
Why haven't you left yet?
I didn't wish to be alone today
I wanted to be a little closer to you
Then why didn't you say so just now?
I was afraid of putting you in a spot
and I was afraid that you'd reject me
Mu Mu, you're the only person I have left now
I'll always be by your side
Don't move
I have something to say
I've thought it through
Life is so short
If I keep looking back at the past
and remain hesitant, it'll be such a waste
Since I still love you
then there's nothing more important than being with you
Because accidents can happen anytime
I don't want to have regrets
Thank you Mu Mu
Thank you for being willing to return to my side
Mr Ling, very sorry to disturb you this late at night
It's okay
Team Leader Wang, has there been any progress in the investigation?
Yes, I came this late at night because I wanted to ask
if you happen to know any female who was close with the deceased?
Did you get hold of some new evidence?
I can't reveal any details about the case
Team Leader Wang, I'll need to know the specific situation in order to provide you with more specific information
Sorry about it
I'll make sure to keep the details of the case secret
The forensic report is out. They found that Chu Yan was holding a earring in his right hand
This is the most important piece of evidence that we've found at the crime scene
Earring?
Can I take a look at it?
According to the rules, only the family of the deceased can access the case evidence
Mr Chu has asked Mr Ling to assist in the investigation on his behalf
Mr Ling will be in charge of everything to do with the case from now on
Mr Chu had a heart attack
and is receiving treatment at the hospital now
You can go over to check if you want
just don't agitate him
Since Mr Chu has entrusted you to assist in the investigation
It's more convenient too
This is the earring
Have you seen it before?
I'll go get you all some water
I don't usually pay attention to a woman's accessories
so I'm afraid that I won't be able to help you out
But I can give you a list of women whom Chu Yan is close with
Thank you for your cooperation. We won't disturb you any further
Don't have to thank me. I didn't help very much
Let me know if there's any new progress in the investigation
I'll see if I can help supply any information that the police needs
Okay. We'll let you know once we find the owner of the earring
Thanks for your hard work
Boss, just now..
It's nothing
Then I'll go back first
I saw that the police came. Did something happen?
Nothing
Mu Mu, did you lose a earring?
Yea I did lose one. How did you know?
Is the other one still with you? Let me see it
It's this one
Is something the matter?
Have you ever worn this pair of earrings to meet with Chu Yan before the incident?
I met him the day before he got hospitalised
I lost the earring that day
Does this have anything to do with Chu Yan's incident?
Just before the fire, the hospital's CCTVs malfunctioned
Chu Yan's ward catching on fire is not an accident. It's intentional
You mean that someone intentionally wants to harm Chu Yan?
The police has retrieved a clue that can identify the suspect
What clue?
The owner of the earring
Me? How can that be possible?
Chu Yan was holding your earring in his hand
Before the police finds other evidence
all the evidence points to you as the main suspect now
Isn't it ridiculous?
Why will I want to harm Chu Yan?
I know. I know this has nothing to do with you
Don't worry Mu Mu. I won't let anything happen to you
But why will my earring be in Chu Yan's hand?
If my guess is right
The person who planned this wasn't targeting Chu Yan
He/She is targeting you
(From unknown number : Did you like the present I sent you?)
(Are you satisfied with it?)
Present?
Could it mean the earring?
Help me to find the location of the source of a text message
Someone must have purposely lured us here
Boss
The CCTV footage for this area has about 10 minutes deleted from it
The timing coincides with the time that you received the message
Everything was planned so well
There must be a purpose for luring us here
What is it?
Photograph
It wasn't like that! I was trying to pull him back
Why does it look so wrong?
Mu Mu, besides you and Chu Yan, who else was present that day?
Tong Tong and the taxi driver were waiting for me upstairs
With these photos
Will I be treated as the person who killed Chu Yan?
I know it wasn't you
Come, let's go back first
Team Leader Wang
Has there been any new progress?
We'll like to ask Miss Xia to assist us with our investigations for Chu Yan's case
Team Leader Wang, a single photo doesn't really mean anything
We're just doing things by the book
As Mr Chu's friend, you should be assisting the police with their investigation
instead of interfering with our procedures
But there's no point interrogating Xia Lin
We should use the time to look for other clues instead
I'll assist with the investigations
Team Leader Wang, we all hope that the police can solve the case asap
and find the real murderer to prove my innocence
and give closure to those who care for Chu Yan
Thank you for supporting us in our work
I'll wait for you outside
Mu Mu, do you know what you're getting yourself into?
I know. I'll just take it that I'm going for a new experience
Who knows, someone might want me to act in a detective show in future
Don't worry
Boss, the photos were posted online at the time when we reached the scene
I've already asked someone to find out the IP address
Let's go too
Tong Tong, why are you here?
They asked me about you. I wasn't sure what the situation was so I just told them the truth
It's just a procedural interrogation
Miss Yang, you can leave first
Older sister, you'll be okay right?
Don't worry. You head back first
According to the CCTV footage outside Yang Tong's house
you were outside between 7 - 8pm yesterday
I went to buy groceries from the supermarket
Do you have an alibi?
The granny who sells vegetables gave me $20 change. She should still remember me
Anyone else?
I also chatted for a while with a young girl who sells red sugar
A young girl?
How young?
About this height
Probably about 7 or 8 years old
Do you have any alibi of legal age whom we can get a statement from?
I met an old man who was walking his dog at the supermarket entrance
but I'm not sure whether he'll pass by there again
Miss Xia, our conversation today will all be recorded in the files
I hope you'll take it seriously
Mr Policeman, I'm more anxious than anyone
to find out who is the one who killed Chu Yan
But I don't understand why are you so bent on the fact that I went to buy groceries
What does it have to do with the case?
The period of time that you were out coincides with the time that Chu Yan's ward caught on fire
So.. you're suspecting that I didn't really go to buy groceries
but went to the hospital instead?
Your whereabouts lines up with what we know about the case
Team Leader Wang, Mr Ling has found new evidence
Got it
Team Leader Wang
Mr Ling came to turn in evidence
Team Leader Wang, don't you find something off about the photos that were posted online that day?
Our guys have already analysed the photos
and confirmed that they are real (not photoshopped)
Yes the photos are indeed real
but the angle at which they were taken was deliberately planned
What do you mean
Team Leader Wang
This is the IP address of the source where the photos were first posted
It's an overseas address
Deliberately choosing an address that's difficult to trace
it's obvious that someone planned all these to set her up
But we can't prove that Miss Xia was set up based on just an IP address
So we traced the signal position of this phone
and found this location
The photos were all taken with this phone
All the CCTV footages from that day has been deleted beforehand too
Don't you think it's all too coincidental?
Mr Ling
What do you mean by this
I want to bail Xia Lin out
Miss Xia, can you explain the photos?
Were you brought in for questioning as a suspect?
Sorry, please excuse us
Are you Mr Ling?
Please say something
Don't worry
Miss Xia, please explain yourself
Miss Xia, give us some answers
Please share with us
I'm Ling Yi Zhou
Miss Xia and I are close friends of Chu Yan
so there's no way we'll do anything to harm him
Also, the investigation is still ongoing
so we hope that everyone speak and act cautiously
If there's anyone tries to slander and hurt Miss Xia
I will take legal action by all means
Please leave
Mr Ling, say a few more words
I'm sorry
Your first public appearance as the great CEO Ling
had to occur at the police station
It's okay
Of course I should take the opportunity to be photographed together with my wifey
Let's go
You're the one who killed my son
You have the nerve to show up here. Get lost
Uncle Chu
I fully understand your pain of losing your son
But please mind your words
Ling Yi Zhou, you tried all means to get me to transfer the case authority to you
So it was all so that you can defend her
Mr Chu, I offer my condolences
I know you won't believe me no matter what I say now
so I won't try to explain anything
I only hope to quickly find the person who killed Chu Yan
and bring him to justice
From the day that Chu Yan defied me because of you
I knew you'd ruin him someday
Chu Yan has ended up in such a sorry state because of you
Uncle Chu, we offer our condolences anyway. We'll take our leave first
What did he mean by 'I will ruin Chu Yan one day'
He was just speaking out of anger. Don't take it to heart
Boss, Missus
I'll wait for you in the car
What is it
After we left the crime scene, I got a private detective to look into Yang Tong's background
and found a great discrepancy with what we know
We'll go meet with her later
Okay
An Ran
Are you that surprised to see me here?
Even a murder suspect can come here
so is it that surprising for a good friend like me to turn up
It's up to you to come or not. It has nothing to do with me
Nothing to do with you?
Chu Yan must be feeling so heartbroken in heaven
What do you mean
Because of you he defied his father
and refused to be betrothed (to connect to another family by marriage)
There's no other reason for it, except that he liked you
That's not possible. Don't spout nonsense
When Chu Yan was alive, you feigned ignorance
Now that he's no longer around
don't even dream of continuing to live with an ease of mind
No matter whether what you're saying is the truth
The fact that Chu Yan will always be mine and Yi Zhou's friend will never change
Chu Yan's death is a huge blow to me and to everyone who likes and supports him
Nobody can shake off the longing they have for a dead loved one
but the only thing I can do now is to carry on living
I believe that is what Chu Yan will want to see
You're so..
Mu Mu
Something cropped up so I won't be able to send you home after all
I'll get someone else to send you back
Does it have something to do with the case?
Don't overthink it. It's a company matter
Alright. Go do your thing. Don't worry about me
Then wait for me at home
Okay
Young lady
Are you chasing after your boyfriend or your husband?
Husband
Your husband is having an affair?
Who's having an affair?
Is this how you usually start a conversation?
Seeing you behave like this, most of the time it's to catch the adulterous pair
You seem to have a lot of experience huh
My husband will never cheat on me
Hey young lady!
That's really my husband
The cab fare
Older sister didn't come with you today?
She isn't free
Then what's the meaning of this?
You were the one who took the photos right
It's not me. Why will I take those kind of photos to set Older sister up
You can stop acting
I know very well that you don't have the ability to set up such an intricate trap
Tell me who is behind all these
and I can let you off the hook
Brother-in-law, I really didn't take those photos
I was always inside the cab that day
The cab driver can vouch for me
You can say that so confidently because you already know that the cab driver has gone missing, right?
Brother-in-law, I really don't know anything
Fine
I'll give you a chance to prove yourself
Where were you between 2015 - 2017?
What were you up to?
Brother-in-law
I'm just a simple village girl
You witnessed my family situation that day too
I have nothing else to tell you
If you're still suspicious of me, then I'll have to explain myself to Older sis
Let me make myself clear to you
I'm not your Older sister Xia Lin
I have no compassion for you
Older sister, please try to persuade Brother-in-law
He's actually suspecting that I'm working with others to set you up
So you came to force a confession out of her behind my back?
Why didn't you discuss such an important matter with me?
I was afraid that you'll be softhearted
Ling Yi Zhou
I might not be as good at strategy planning as you
but I'm no fool
Older sister
Tong Tong
Tell me the truth
Does this have anything to do with you?
No
The first time I saw you
I was thinking, "This girl is really amazing"
"She managed to survive in the wilderness by herself"
"She has to chop wood, light fires and cook everyday"
"and still has to care for the fruit trees on the mountains on top of everything"
But I slowly started to realise
that your hands
are not quite the same as those who has done manual labour before
Even hands that hold pens for long periods will have calluses
much less one who needs to wield an axe to chop wood every day
What do you think
Older sister
I've let you down
I've lied to you
I just wanted to find a good job in the city
I did it because I really didn't want to continue living that kind of life
That was what I tried to tell myself in the past too
and I didn't find anything suspicious about you
so I let my guard down around you
But now, I have no choice but to suspect you
Older sister
Trust me once more. Just trust me one more time
I beg you
I'm begging you
Now that things have reached this stage,
no matter whether you've got anything to do with this case, there's no way I can continue to let you remain by my side
Besides,
I trust Ling Yi Zhou
He won't be suspicious of you for no reason
But you all can't put all the blame on me just because I told a lie once
Older sister, please think again
I was by your side for so long
When did I ever do anything to hurt you
You were waiting for an opportunity
I recall that you never used to have period cramps
So why would you suddenly claim abdominal pain after we visited Chu Yan at the hospital?
And then you conveniently ran out of red sugar so I had to go out to buy some
These well lined-up string of coincidences
were all meant to push me towards the trap of becoming a murder scapegoat
Am I right?
If you still care about our sister relationship from all these time
then tell me who is the one instigating you behind the scenes
I promise that I won't make you take responsibility for whatever you've done
If you don't tell me
I'll have to let them handle you instead
I'll tell I'll tell
It's An Ran
An Ran gave me a sum of money and got me to keep an eye on you and Chu Yan
After I took the photos that day, I sent them all to her
Then I found your earring in the ward
She got me to find ways to delay you when I told her about it
What are you thinking about
Do you believe what Yang Tong said?
When this incident happened
The first person I investigated was An Ran
But I didn't find anything
If she was lying
why would she want to frame An Ran
I still can't wrap my head around that too
Didn't you say that the mastermind's real target wasn't Chu Yan but me
and An Ran absolutely hates me
She has the ability and the motive
but I just can't understand
how could she have been so heartless towards Chu Yan
Get some rest. I still have some things I need to take care of
You're just gonna hide away to be sad by yourself
Help me find out a person's location
Make sure it's low-key
Lin Lin, I didn't have any signal in the mountains
so I only just saw the news
Where are you?
I'm at Ling Yi Zhou's place
Wait there. I'll go over right now
She's always so impatient
Oh right
The news
How dare you all say such things about Ling Yi Zhou when you don't even understand him at all
No, this won't do
It'll only make matters worse if I publicly defend him
(She created a new weibo account with the user ID 'There is only one truth')
Boss Ling must have been been bewitched!
XL's reply : Ling Yi Zhou has an IQ of 146. So he'll still be smarter than the average person even if he was bewitched
Ling Yi Zhou is really letting himself go this time
Is that the correct way to use 'letting oneself go'? (the person used a particular chinese idiom that actually means to 'let oneself go to chase one's dreams')
This chinese idiom is used to mean 'let oneself go to chase one's dreams'
Better study harder and get your basics right
Boss, as of 11am today
All our Ling corporation's shopping malls, departmental stores, supermarkets and other businesses has seen a drop in sales
and we predict that it'll keep dropping
Give me a summary of the sales data at the end of every day
and bring forward renovation works for all our departmental stores to minimise losses
We might as well take the chance to clear out products that have gone out of season
Okay
Thanks for your hard work
Let me know the minute you have any news
Is there anything else?
Boss, the news about you bailing Missus out has already gone viral online
There're lots of negative news about you at the moment
You don't have report such things to me. Just let the PR team manage it
Someone has already taken action ahead of our PR team
I'll head out first
Hello. What are you up to?
I'm.. reading a book
Is that so?
I was still worried that you'll be upset after reading all the negative remarks online
You've seen them too?
Yup
I guess we can say that I'm kind of experiencing a spate of cyberbullying
There's no point reading a bunch of nonsense written by strangers
I think you were very wise to not have any social media accounts
But I realised that there's a person called 'There's only one truth' who keeps speaking up for me
Don't waste your time on these nonsense things and just focus on your work
I've got something to do. Bye bye
He didn't install CCTVs in the house, did he?
I was still working so hard on my script
With hopes that the great Chu can act in it as the main male lead one day
But in the end
he just passed away like this
Till now I'm still in disbelief about Chu Yan's death
It doesn't feel real at all
This evil An Ran
She has the face of a well-bred young lady
but why does she have a heart of stone
I'm now suspecting
that she's the one who set me up in the bar incident
That's possible
She tried to frame you and Chu Yan that time
and failed
So she planned something even worse
to blacklist you and even drag Boss Ling down too
She sure killed three birds with one stone
I've pretty much destroyed Ling Yi Zhou's reputation
I don't even know how to face Granny now
Can't help it. This all started because Boss Ling friendzoned her
An Ran couldn't get his love so she attacked you and Chu Yan
Why is the life of my great idol Chu so tragic
Miss Jia is here too?
Why did you two come home so early?
I wanted to come home to keep you company
I'm going to the washroom
What did you two talk about?
Nothing much
Why are you avoiding me?
Why will I be avoiding you?
I've been up to my eyeballs in work
Where will I find the time to think about avoiding you
You think too highly of yourself
We need to talk
I don't have time
But you had the time to kiss me
That was... I mistook you for my idol
and simply kissed the wrong guy
Then do you just go around kissing people even if they were your idol
Whatever it is, the deed has been done. Why do you care so much anyway
You're neither my parents nor my boyfriend
Wen Li, come in for a moment
Okay
What's up with both of you?
Don't ask. Just know that Wen Li is like a ticking time bomb
so I need to shift out asap. You must take me in alright?
You have to save me or I'll be a goner
What's the situation at the company like?
Oh. Chu Yan's fans and a bunch of bystanders are blocking the entrance
Saying that you're using your power to manipulate the law
to cover up the truth about Missus killing Chu Yan
They came knocking at my door before I've had the chance to investigate them for slander and creating chaos
Get the Ministry of Justice to send each of them a lawyer's letter
Noted
Oh yes. The Board of Directors seem to be paying close attention to the rumours about you and Missus
If the rumours don't stop, the Board might become disturbed
Help me to organise a press conference
It's time
for some things to be brought to light
Yes sir
Good morning to all the media reporters
Welcome to the Ling corporation's press conference
What's the main objective of today's press conference?
Does it have anything to do with Miss Xia?
Everyone, don't be impatient
We invited all of you here today mainly to make two announcements
Two announcements?
Ling Yi Zhou didn't tell me a single thing
Just listen and you'll know
The first announcement
is that the CEO of Ling Corporation, Mr Ling Yi Zhou and Miss Xia Lin
have been legally married as of 25th February 2018
Has he gone mad?
Why did he choose such a time to make our relationship public
Boss Ling is soooo cool
I didn't fangirl over him for the past few years for nothing
Why did he choose to reveal the marriage now after keeping it secret for so long?
Why isn't Mr Ling personally present?
Does this revelation have anything to do with Chu Yan's case?
Can you clarify further?
Can you explain more?
Please say something
I have the same question that all of you have
So let's wait for my husband to come and explain the situation to everyone
I can answer this question for everyone
Isn't this CEO An from Xin An Entertainment?
Didn't she disappear for awhile?
Why did she suddenly appear here?
Yang Tong, you traitor
Everyone
I'm here today to reveal the true colours of this Mrs Ling
so that my good friend Chu Yan can rest in peace
What does she mean by 'true colours'?
What's going on?
What kind of truth are you going to reveal?
Hi everyone, I'm Mrs Ling's assistant
I want to identify
Mrs Ling as Chu Yan's murderer
Yang Tong, I kept giving you chances. Why do you keep trying to frame me?
Do you have any evidence?
I was present when she went to meet with Chu Yan that time
I witnessed her having a dispute with Chu Yan
Chu Yan was nearly pushed into the water by her
I felt unjustified for Chu Yan
so I took photos and posted them online
But this can only prove that Mrs Ling is a suspect. It can't prove that she's the murderer
That's right
This doesn't prove that she's the murderer
I brought a videoclip with me today
Everything will make sense after you all watch it
So you really were the one who set me up
Xia Lin was afraid that her affair with Chu Yan would be exposed
and endanger her identity as Mrs Ling
so she made up an excuse of going to buy groceries, to take the chance to go to the hospital to kill Chu Yan
and then came back to cook for me
So that I would be her alibi
Yang Tong
Since when did you get so good at telling stories
Even I would have bought into it
You might have been able to deceive Yi Zhou gege
and use your reputation as Mrs Ling to cover up suspicions about you
But there's no way to cover up evidence
You are the one who killed Chu Yan
Even if Yi Zhou gege came here
he wouldn't be able to conceal this truth
Please explain yourself
What if I came too?
Isn't that Chu Yan?
Boss
Wen Li, there will be no urgent need to deal with all these negative news online yet
But haven't you always hated to have people discussing about you
I shouldn't miss out on this great moment of witnessing my wife's expression of love just because of my small dislike
Forget it
You wouldn't understand it anyway
You don't have a wife
Boss
Can this be considered a work-related injury?
