    Zhao Youlin felt struck. She bit her lip and answered in a muffled voice, “Nothing.”


    “Really?” Mu Tingfeng’s tone was slightly assertive. His deep eyes fixed intently on Zhao Youlin. It was as if he would never move his gaze away unless Zhao Youlin told him what he wanted to know.


    Zhao Youlin instinctively wanted to avoid Mu Tingfeng’s gaze, only to find herself seemingly frozen by his gaze. She was unable to move or avoid him. She had no choice but to meet his eyes.


    And Mu Tingfeng’s next sentencepletely broke down thest wall Zhao Youlin put up in her mind.


    “Youlin, I’m your husband.” The closest person to you besides your family, so there should not be any secrets between us.


    Zhao Youlin understood the meaning of Mu Tingfeng’s words. She shuddered and did not know if she shouldugh or cry.


    It was after a while that she exhaled a sigh and said hesitantly, “It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but I just don’t know how to start.”


    Mu Tingfeng’s eyebrows furrowed. He was unhappy with Zhao Youlin’s perfunctory answer.


    Zhao Youlin also knew that she could not fool Mu Tingfeng with that answer, so she asked, “Do you know how I died in myst life, when I was a police officer?”


    As she expected, Mu Tingfeng’s expression changed after he heard her question. There was a terrifyingly gloomy look on his face. Though he still answered, “The information on the file said that you died on a mission by ident. You died in the line of duty.”


    “That wasn’t an ident.” Zhao Youlin interrupted Mu Tingfeng with a smile. Her gaze shifted slightly as she looked at the lush bushes outside the car window. “At that time, we received a report that a group of men were engaged in the illegal transportation of drugs inside a warehouse next to the big pier


    on North Street. At that time, I was already a squad leader in the special police force. After receiving the order, I immediately led my team there, along with another support squad from my unit. We were going to arrest them all before they could get the stuff out of the port, and detain those things that


    were harmful to people.”


    “What happened then? How did you…”


    Zhao Youlin cupped her chin in her palm and rested her arm on the window. She sneered, “It was fake. The intelligence was fake.”


    Mu Tingfeng’s expression changed again. Zhao Youlin did not notice it, or maybe she noticed it but just did not care. She continued, “We sneaked into the warehouse at that time. And we were ambushed. I was with Mu Chen…”


    Hearing Zhao Youlin brought up Mu Chen, Mu Tingfeng’s brows trembled a little, but he said nothing.


    “It was really dangerous, but we killed most of them. Though when we thought it was over, an ident happened.”


    “an ident?”


    “Because the reinforcements had arrived, I… let down my guard. As a result, it gave the enemy an opportunity to ambush me.”


    ‘Mu Tingfeng’s heart trembled slightly. He looked at Zhao Youlin in a daze. Zhao Youlin also turned her head to face him directly. Then, she reached out and gestured at the location of her left breast as she chuckled. “Here, the location of my heart, was shot twice. One shot came from the enemy, and


    another… came from apanion.”


    ‘Mu Tingfeng’s eyes narrowed. He stared at Zhao Youlin in disbelief. He murmured, “Yourpanion?”


    Zhao Youlin avoided Mu Tingfeng’s gaze and once again turned her head to look out the window. Theers of her lips slowly widened into a self-deprecating arc. “Remember those documents I dropped at your ce when we met for the third time?”


    Mu Tingfeng jolted upright. He suddenly remembered that during the third time he met Zhao Youlin, after she helped them retrieve the fake documents from theirpetitors, they had switched the file bags because of a moment of negligence. He had identally taken the information she had asked


    the detective agency to find out for her.


    It was because of that information that the seeds of suspicion were nted in his heart. After that, he did suspect that maybe her death was not an ident, he even sent someone to investigate it.


    Unfortunately, the police station was a government agency, no matter what. The obvious things could be easily checked out, but if he wanted to look deeper, it was not that easy.


    After investigating for some time, Mu Tingfeng gave up as he could not find anything about it. The matter was left unresolved, but he did not expect that


    “You’d think I would die right away after I was shot in the heart, that I wouldn’t be able to think about anything, but at that moment… I don’t know the reason, but my consciousness was clearer than ever.” As Zhao Youlin said that, she reached out to cover her face and chuckled, “Sometimes, I even doubt


    that maybe the two shots were just my imagination before I died? The bullets that shot at me at the same time from different directions…”


    Enemy andpanion, clear as day! Most importantly, the shots were fired at the exact same time, and the position that she was standing at was slightly closer to the enemy, which meant that one second after that enemy fired the shot, herpanion shot her too.


    Without any hesitation, as if they had been waiting for this moment to kill her!


    Therefore, when she had just been reborn, she could not deny that she did bear some resentment. She just could not ept that herpanion, who fought alongside her, who she gave her trust to, fired a gun into her chest, her heart!


    But gradually she understood that it was not an illusion at all, because the resentments she felt truly existed.


    She resented the fact that her life had ended so abruptly like that. She resented the fact that herpanion betrayed her. Those resentments had been burning her heart like boiling oil!


    Seemingly feeling Zhao Youlin’s inner turmoil, Mu Tingfeng subconsciously reached out and held her other hand.


    Zhao Youlin felt the warmth in her palm. Her fingertips quivered a little, though she did not tum around. She continued to stare nkly at the moonlight outside the window. Mu Tingfeng could not figure out what was on her mind.


    Mu Tingfeng thought about it and took the initiative to change the topic, “About Ms. Lu from just now…”


    ‘Mu Tingfeng intended to say that Ms. Lu seemed to be hostile toward you, but Zhao Youlin’s next sentence made him change his expression again.


    “Lu Shu was also part of the second support squad that came with us on the mission at that time.”


    ‘Mu Tingfeng’s eyes widened instantly with a little unease. At the same time, he finally understood why Zhao Youlin would lose herposure just now.


    “She was one of the members of your squad, but she is Lu Xiangtian’s daughter…”


    Not just Zhao Youlin, Mu Tingfeng was also aware of what Lu Xiangtian’s name represented. Lu Shu was his daughter, yet she belonged to the police force, it just seemed.


    Mu Tingfeng’s face immediately turned dark because of a certain spection he just thought of.. “So you are suspecting that she.
