Chapter 82: Chapter 82: Surveillance

At the Huo Mansion at this moment.

"Young Madam, that really scared me to death. We should have called the police and sent that lunatic to jail. Why did you let her go?"

Nanny Wang, ignoring her swollen, painful cheek, looked at Nan Yu with concern.

Nan Yu gave a faint smile, pulled Nanny Wang over, and gently applied an anti-swelling ointment to her face.

"Nanny Wang, I wasn’t hurt initially; I just thought of doing her father a favor which might come in handy someday."

She paused and added nothing more. "Let’s not worry about her for now; let me apply the ointment for you first."

Nanny Wang snatched the ointment, anxiously saying, "Young Madam, I can apply it myself."

Nan Yu didn’t refuse and turned her head to Qi Ming.

"Uncle Qi, please don’t tell grandma about today’s incident. She was worried about me all last night. She already has a headache, and if she learns about this, I’m afraid..."

Seeing Nan Yu’s sincerity and her concern for the elderly lady, Qi Ming pondered the age and health of the old lady, sighed heavily, and nodded with difficulty.

"Young Madam, just this once."

Nan Yu grinned, "Thank you, Uncle Qi."

Qi Ming changed the topic, "But if the old lady finds out from somewhere else and asks us, we will still have to tell her."

Nan Yu: "...Yes."

A seaside villa in City A.

Nan Zhuoyuan, who had not slept all night, was sitting on the sofa with red eyes.

His bodyguard, Tan Lichuan, stood by his side and reported everything he had found out at the police station.

"Mr. Nan, Miss Nan is not at the police station right now; she has been temporarily cleared of major suspicion and is currently at home. The police do not allow her to leave City A."

Nan Zhuoyuan relaxed slightly and furrowed his brows. "What about Luo Ji?"

Tan Lichuan explained, "This Luo Ji had a conflict with Miss Nan at a bar. She reprimanded him on the spot. Holding a grudge, Luo Ji hired ten thugs the next night with the intent to kill Miss Nan."

Upon hearing this, Nan Zhuoyuan displayed a concerned expression. "She wasn’t injured, was she?"

Tan Lichuan honestly responded, "Miss Nan injured her left hand, but those ten thugs and Luo Ji were seriously hurt, especially Luo Ji, who is now in the ICU and paralyzed from the waist down."

Nan Zhuoyuan was momentarily stunned, then laughed, "Just like my sister. Luo Ji brought it upon himself; he got what he deserved!"

Tan Lichuan continued, "It was last night during the Song Family’s birthday celebration. Miss Nan attended it. It was during this time that Luo Ji died. A nurse witnessed Miss Nan killing him, and there is surveillance video as evidence."

"Wait a minute." Nan Zhuoyuan squinted his eyes and raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

He turned his head and looked at Tan Lichuan. "Which night was the incident at the bar?"

Tan Lichuan immediately replied, "It was on the 6th of this month."

Nan Zhuoyuan quickly recalled something with an unreadable emotion in his eyes. He pulled out his phone, scrolled rapidly, and brought up the call log with Nan Qingqing.

The time of their first call was shown to be on the evening of the 6th!

Considering everything that happened last night, his face instantly darkened, brewing a dangerous anger.

"To keep me from seeing Nan Yu, they really went to great lengths!"

He suddenly stood up and said directly, "Where is Nan Yu living now? I’ll go to her directly."

Tan Lichuan provided the address. "She is currently residing at the Huo family’s mansion in the South District, not far from the Song family."

Nan Zhuoyuan grabbed his coat. "Let’s go, we’re heading there now!"

"Yes, Mr. Nan."

The next second, Li Xue entered from outside the door, stood in front of Nan Zhuoyuan, and grabbed him.

"Zhuo Yuan, wait a moment, there’s a problem outside, someone is surveilling our house."
