Chapter 825: The Real Murderer’s Found! “Tianxin, is anything wrong?” Shangguan Ling asked in a low voice as he approached Ye Tianxin from behind.

Ye Tianxin shook her head. “No, everything’s fine.”

“You’re in Shenhai City. Please tell me if there’s anything that you need help with.”

“Okay, thank you.”

Xie Xuning and Shangguan Wei drank heavily, while Ye Tianxin chatted with Lady Shangguan in the garden. However, Ye Tianxin was definitely less comfortable in the Shangguan’s place than at Lang Garden.

Nevertheless, Ye Tianxin was overwhelmed with joy after receiving Qie Wenyang’s call saying that her grandmother’s operation was successful.

The operation was successful, meaning that their family could reunite for the new year.

Perhaps, everything was moving in the best direction.

Shangguan Ling’s phone rang. He picked up his phone and listened intently with an indifferent expression and hung up after the caller finished speaking.

“Tianxin, we’ve arrested the real murderer.”

“Really? That’s great. My dad will be able to prove his innocence.”

However, Ye Tianxin hesitated to wake up Xie Xuning for the interrogation since he was so drunk.

“Did he admit to his crime?”

Shangguan Ling nodded. “Yes, he admitted that he was the one who murdered Jiao Hongmei.”

“Okay. I’ll go and wake my dad…”

“Let me go and wake him up instead.”

Xie Xuning quickly packed his stuff after Shangguan Ling woke him and went to the detention center with him.

Xie Xuning saw Jiao Hongmei’s murderer in the detention center.

Ye Tianxin exclaimed, “It’s him? Are you sure? I mean… this is Tao Weizheng.”

She never thought that Jiao Hongmei’s killer would be Tao Weizheng.

Tao Weiheng sat in the detention center. He never thought that he would be arrested, let alone by people from the military.

However, it was also true that people from the police station would never suspect him as the real culprit of the murder case.

“Tao Weizheng, why did you murder Jiao Hongmei?”

Tao Weizheng sat on the chair and laughed bitterly. “It’s because Jiao Hongmei was too greedy!”

Xie Xuning had a headache. Why would the Chief Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, who had a bright future, take the risk and kill someone?

Did he not know the consequences of homicide?

The death penalty still existed in their country!

Moreover, Xie Xuning almost became the scapegoat of his crime.

“Explain yourself.”

Tao Weizheng rambled on about what happened between him and Jiao Hongmei.

It turned out that Jiao Hongmei and Tao Weizheng knew each other through Lu Jijun. At first, Tao Weizheng and Jiao Hongmei were just friends.

However, some other feelings would inevitably develop between a man and a woman who stayed together after some time.

Jiao Hongmei and Tao Weizheng naturally got engaged in a relationship with each other after some time.

Jiao Hongmei benefited considerably because of Tao Weizheng’s position in the Municipal Party Committee. However, she was unsatisfied with what she possessed.

Ever since Jiao Hongmei got fired by the hospital, she had been obsessed with making money.

Jiao Hongmei felt that money was the only thing that could provide her a sense of security. Gradually, she did many things under Tao Weizheng’s name behind his back.

At first, Tao Weizheng tolerated her behavior. However, as time passed, he gradually lost patience when Jiao Hongmei threatened to report him if he refused to divorce his wife.

How could he possibly divorce his wife?

Tao Weizheng could not have gotten to where he now was without his wife’s support.

Tao Weizheng cleaned up the murder scene and left no traces.

However, there was no escaping the law. He would eventually be sanctioned by the law even if he removed all traces of his presence from the murder scene!
