“Fiancée?” Zhang Meng froze and stared blankly at Xia Zhi. His thoughts were racing as a “terrifying truth” dawned on him.

Xia Zhi laughed and added on, “That’s right. That would be me.”

The thought “it was over” popped into Zhang Meng’s head.

Xia Zhi didn’t expect Chu Nan to be so powerful. When Zhang Meng heard his name, he became so terrified that he began pleading for forgiveness.

Zhang Meng fell to his knees and sobbed as he pleaded with Xia Zhi, “I’m sorry. It’s all my fault today. I didn’t investigate properly and caught you. I beg you, don’t take it to heart with a small fry like me. Just treat it as a joke…”

Xia Zhi looked down at Zhang Meng, who was kneeling in front of her, and sneered before kicking him to the floor. “The joke you’re talking about is locking me in here for a few hours without food or water,” she said coldly. “Where you planning on following me into the bathroom as well?”

“I, I…” Zhang Meng broke out in a cold sweat. He tried to speak but was at a loss for words.

After hearing Xia Zhi’s words, Chu Nan’s eyes were filled with sorrow as he softly said, “I’m sorry, Zhizhi. I was late.”

After hearing Chu Nan’s words, Xia Zhi shook her head and smiled brightly. “No, you’re not! You came just in time!”

Although she didn’t find any information about the traitor in the archives, Xia Zhi felt that sweeping through the archive still gave her some peace of mind.

Xia Zhi looked at Zhang Meng and didn’t know what to do.

At that moment, Chen Feng handed over a document. At the same time, he did not forget to quietly explain why Chu Nan was late. “Miss Xia Zhi, this document contains information about Zhang Meng that CEO Chu found on his way back to Beijing.”

After hearing Chen Feng’s words, Xia Zhi did not pay attention to the information immediately. Instead, she asked, “On the way back to the capital?”

Chen Feng had not expected Xia Zhi to catch on so quickly. After his eyes lit up, he quickly said, “Yes, yes. CEO Chu had to go to the neighboring city to discuss a project, but after receiving Executive Assistant Sun’s call, he immediately returned to Beijing. He didn’t stop at all and came all the way to the police station.”

Chu Nan had not expected Chen Feng to mention this and was stunned.

When Xia Zhi heard Chen Feng’s words, she looked at Chu Nan. She did not miss the sight of Chu Nan’s earlobes slowly turning red.

This convinced Xia Zhi that Chen Feng was telling the truth. Very few people truly cared about her since she was young. Hence, when she felt Chu Nan’s concern, she felt at a loss for a moment. At the same time, she also felt warmth spreading in her heart.

After Chen Feng sensed the ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them, he nodded in satisfaction. Fifth Elder was good at many things, but he was not very good at expressing himself. This was not good. Fortunately, Chen Feng was here. Otherwise, Miss Xia Zhi might never even learn of this for the rest of her life.

In the end, Xia Zhi returned to her senses. She coughed lightly and looked away in a panic. After she saw the document in her hand, she got back on track.

After Xia Zhi picked it up and flipped through it, she saw detailed records of Zhang Meng’s activities.

“Let’s put Zhang Meng behind bars.”

As Xia Zhi said this, the young police officers moved out.

They had often been bullied by Zhang Meng. How could they let this opportunity slip?

It did not take long for Zhang Meng to be processed.

Even under such circumstances, Zhang Meng did not forget to threaten the police. “Don’t touch me, or else my dad won’t let you off!”

After Zhang Meng said this, several people froze.

After all, although Zhang Meng had been arrested, his family still had a lot of power. They would no doubt be hunted down.

When Xia Zhi saw this, she raised her hand to wave the document and slowly spoke. “There are also crimes related to his brother, his father, and his entire family.”
