“No! I didn’t!” I said urgently. “I just helped her buy a few things! The one who killed her is Zheng Xin!” 0
 
Chen Zhiyuan looked at me coldly. “Is that so? Then tell me, what exactly did you help her buy?” 0
 
I hesitated for a moment. “Actually, it was just some stimulants and the like.” 0
 
Chen Zhiyuan frowned tightly. “What did you say?!” 0
 
I forced a nervous smile. “Actually, Wang Chen has a habit of buying these drugs herself; I was just helping out along the way.” 0
 
Chen Zhiyuan stared at me coldly. “Helping out along the way? You mean to say you knew she was buying these drugs to commit suicide, yet you still helped her?” 0
 
I panicked immediately. “I didn’t! That’s not what I meant! I was just confused for a moment!” 0
 
Chen Zhiyuan continued to look at me coldly. “Confused for a moment? Then can you explain why you were with Zheng Xin?” 0
 
I was stunned. 0
 
Damn it, how could I have forgotten about that? 0
 
In fact, my relationship with Zheng Xin had always been ambiguous. 0
 
Although I was nominally his girlfriend, we didn’t have any real emotional foundation. 0
 
In many cases, I was merely being used by him. 0
 
Yet I had always relied on him because he could help me break free from sister Hua ’s control. 0
 
Chen Zhiyuan continued, “As far as we know, Zheng Xin has always been Wang Chen’s boyfriend. So why is he with you?” 0
 
“Go on,” Chen Zhiyuan said expressionlessly. 0
 
 
“Ah?!” I exclaimed in surprise. 0
 
“I said, tell us everything you know,” Chen Zhiyuan said coldly. “Maybe we can help clear your name.” 0
 
One night, I went to find Zheng Xin and He Li. 0
 
I had seen something that terrified me. 0
 
The guests in the next private room, for some reason, all had flushed faces and were playing around on the sofa without any clothes on. 0
 
I was frightened and decided to seek out Zheng Xin and He Li. 0
 
However, when I pushed the door open, I found He Li sitting on top of Zheng Xin. 0
 
Hearing the noise, He Li immediately got off. 0
 
“What’s wrong?” she asked me. 0
 
“The next room, the next private room,” I stammered. “They seem a bit off.” 0
 
He Li chuckled dismissively. “What’s so off about it? They just took some pills.” 0
 
“But they look so scary,” I said, trembling. 0
 
He Li rolled her eyes. “What’s there to be afraid of? They’re just having fun.” 0
 
As she spoke, she walked up to me and looked down at me. 0
 
“Besides, you’re Wang Chen now. Why are you still so timid?” 0
 
She teased, “You won’t be able to play the bad girl in front of your parents like this.” 0
 
I was stunned. “You know?!” 0
 
 
He Li let out a cold laugh. "Of course, I am He Li." 0
 
I looked at her in surprise. "Then why didn't you expose me?" 0
 
He Li smiled. "Because I want to escape this family too, so I teamed up with Zheng Xin." 0
 
"What?!" I was taken aback. 0
 
"Uh-huh," He Li said proudly. "I’ve known for a long time that my parents want to drag me back home to be a doll, and I absolutely refuse! So, I collaborated with Zheng Xin." 0
 
I stared at her in disbelief. "Will they let you go?" 0
 
He Li scoffed. "Of course not, but they wouldn't dare kill me because I have a twin sister. As long as she goes home in my place, they won't make things difficult for me." 0
 
I was astonished. "You mean, you’re intentionally helping Zheng Xin?" 0
 
He Li chuckled. "Of course! After all, I'm a girl who yearns for freedom." 0
