Chapter 212: Each Sticking to Their Own Version

Gu Changzheng listened quietly to his account, vaguely feeling what the disgusting incident he mentioned was.

Zhang Zhiyuan gritted his teeth, his face flushed red, and he said extremely reluctantly: "Until one time, my father went out to attend an academic exchange meeting, and only she and I were at home. That day, she actually, actually shamelessly wanted to seduce me and have a relationship with me!"

"What?!" Luo Fei, who had been silent on the side, couldn't help but blurt out! This was too destructive to one's worldview!

Zhang Zhiyuan glanced at him and said: "I didn't know anything about her behavior in that ghost cult before, so my reaction at the time was the same as this officer's. Later, I learned about some of their past from the few words my father let slip when he occasionally complained, and only then did I know that there really are people in this world without any bottom line! But for the sake of my father's face, I could only hide this secret in the bottom of my heart!"

Gu Changzheng looked at him and asked: "You said you called her to demand the assets your father gave her over the years. Where did you go after you finished the call?"

"Hmph! In the evening, I was also at the Tianyang Hotel," Zhang Zhiyuan replied.

"Who were you with? What were you doing there?" Gu Changzheng asked further.

Zhang Zhiyuan glanced at him. Gu Changzheng seemed to feel a hint of sarcasm in that look. He said slowly: "Business partners from the hospital. Do you want me to give you their names and phone numbers?"

Gu Changzheng ignored his sarcasm and said directly: "Then thank you! Since you were also at the hotel, you naturally saw Lou Zhen fall. Why didn't you leave?"

"Boss Tian and we have a good relationship. Besides, our group spends our days soaking in the hospital; what haven't we seen? We won't be unable to eat or drink because of someone jumping off a building!" Zhang Zhiyuan said with a smile on his lips.

Gu Changzheng remained calm and unruffled. He extended his right hand. Luo Fei, who was on his right, glanced at him. Gu Changzheng said: "Photo!"

Luo Fei hurriedly took the photo of Huang Li from his bag and handed it to Gu Changzheng. The latter placed the photo in front of Zhang Zhiyuan and said: "You're not a stranger to this girl, are you!"

Zhang Zhiyuan's face changed slightly. He hesitated and said: "I know her, a supervisor at Boss Tian's place."

"What is your relationship?" Gu Changzheng said coldly.

"What do you mean? What kind of relationship could I have with her!" Zhang Zhiyuan said loudly.

"Give me your phone!" Gu Changzheng shouted.

Zhang Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, and his face immediately turned pale. As he hesitated, Luo Fei stood up and walked in front of him. Zhang Zhiyuan looked at the two people in front of him and struggled: "My phone concerns my privacy. You have no right to check it!"

Luo Fei sneered, took out the summons warrant he had prepared from his bag, and handed it to Zhang Zhiyuan: "Zhang Zhiyuan, the Lou Zhen falling case is suspected of murder. We need your cooperation in the investigation. Please hand over your phone!"

Looking at the bright red seal of the "Zizhen City Public Security Bureau Jiangdong Branch" on the summons warrant, Zhang Zhiyuan collapsed on the sofa like a deflated ball. He slowly took out his phone, handed it to Luo Fei, covered his face with both hands, then straightened up, looked at Gu Changzheng, and said: "Officer Gu, I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything, but I hope you will keep my secrets for me!"

Luo Fei sneered: "Hmph! That's not up to us to decide!"

Zhang Zhiyuan looked up at him, full of surprise: "What? Extramarital affairs don't violate the law, right?"

Seeing that he was still avoiding the important points, Luo Fei felt that his previous appearance was completely pretentious and was about to lose his temper. Gu Changzheng, however, waved his hand to stop him: "Mr. Zhang, we hope you can honestly tell us what happened yesterday. You have no problem. We, the criminal police team, have no interest in asking about these lifestyle issues. But if you hide anything, then no one can help you! Think it over!"

Zhang Zhiyuan reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead. The September weather wasn't too hot, but at this moment, he felt as if he had entered a furnace. The gazes of the two police officers opposite him were like four flames, about to roast his hypocritical disguise into ashes!

He let out a long breath, took off his glasses, rubbed his temples, and said slowly: "This girl is my lover. I met her at the Tianyang Hotel. The girl is simple, sensible, and pretty, so after meeting a few times, I fell in love with her!"

"Wait a minute, you said the first time you met Huang Li was where?" Gu Changzheng suddenly asked.

Zhang Zhiyuan looked at him strangely and said: "At the Tianyang Hotel, of course?"

Gu Changzheng nodded slightly to signal him to continue. Zhang Zhiyuan continued: "Later, every time I went to the hotel restaurant for dinner, I would call her over to accompany me. Boss Tian saw that I liked her and didn't say anything, perhaps because I was a big client of his. Later, during a banquet, I drank too much. That day, Huang Li helped me to a guest room upstairs, and then, and then we had a relationship. Between men and women, having that kind of relationship is completely different. Since that time, the window paper between us was pierced. Later, we have always maintained that relationship..."

"When did you and Huang Li have a substantial relationship?" Gu Changzheng asked.

Zhang Zhiyuan thought for a while and said: "Three months ago, I think? I don't remember the exact date."

Gu Changzheng touched his chin. Three months ago—such a coincidence? Or was he overthinking it? Seeing Zhang Zhiyuan looking at him, he hurriedly withdrew his thoughts and said: "Do you mean she took the initiative to pursue you?"

Zhang Zhiyuan lowered his head: "It was also my lack of willpower. At first, I just treated her as a little sister, but after we were intimate, I, I felt like I had lived in vain before!"

Although Huang Li was a girl from the countryside, she was naturally beautiful, and beneath her gentle appearance, she had a wild nature. As a result, when the two were intimate, she was often extremely bold, which made Zhang Zhiyuan, who had always had a rigid married life, feel like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, and for a time, he was deeply trapped in it!

Later, in order to seek excitement, Huang Li even went crazy with him on the hotel rooftop several times. Different sensory stimulation, that kind of "stealing" feeling that made one's heart race, made Zhang Zhiyuan linger and find it addictive! At first, it was Huang Li who seduced him, but later, it became him taking the initiative to seek out some tricks, and the hotel keys were indeed made by Huang Li at his request, with the goal of making it more convenient for them in the stairwell and on the rooftop...

Looking at Zhang Zhiyuan, who was somewhat pathological while recounting this, Gu Changzheng sighed deeply. This intellectual and social elite, who looked refined, might have had the seeds of madness buried deep in his heart long ago! As for that day Lou Zhen seduced him, did something happen? I'm afraid only he knows!

Gu Changzheng shook his head and put these irrelevant matters aside for now. He was a bit indecisive at this moment. Zhang Zhiyuan and Huang Li said completely different things. Who was lying? And what was the purpose? ===== CHAPTER 213 =====
