66: Chapter 43 Concealing the Truth_2 66: Chapter 43 Concealing the Truth_2 Noble Lady Ran Meiyu felt slightly relieved and turned her head to glance smugly at Ran Yan, who merely lowered her gaze slightly, ignoring her provocation.

Liu Pinrang was very vexed.

Ran Meiyu claimed that her fingernail had broken because she was pushed by Ran Yan into the flowerbed beside the winding path and did not know what it had hit against when it snapped.

However, despite having someone

Freedom in marriage is one thing to speak of, but how could there be any real freedom in practice?

Especially for a major clan like the Ran family.

Catching a glimpse of Ran Wen’s simmering anger, Ran Meiyu’s complexion grew even paler.

It wasn’t just this matter that upset Ran Wen.

With so many people present, having his daughter be questioned about such an issue, where could he possibly place his face?

“Since that is the case, I will send someone to question Yin Si Lang right away.

Everyone, please wait in the side hall for a while.” Liu Pinrang stood up, ordered someone to escort Ran Meiyu back to her room under guard, and lead the others out.

Walking behind a group of men, Ran Yan was uncertain of where to go when a middle-aged man dressed in light green official uniform approached and said in a low voice, “Madam Ran, the Inspector has other instructions for you.

Please come with me.”

Ran Yan looked at him indifferently and, lowering her gaze, followed him to a side door.

“I am Yu Bohao, in charge of the criminal justice in this state.” Yu Bohao was skinny, short, and his features were decently shaped.

With pale skin and a strong scholarly aura, he seemed amiable and didn’t at all resemble someone in charge of a state’s criminal justice and a Judge.

Ran Yan paused, then gave a slight bow and said, “So you are Judge Yu.

My apologies.”

Yu Bohao couldn’t help but take another look at Ran Yan, who maintained the same expression from beginning to end, showing no sign of turbidity.

She displayed neither fear nor arrogance; her eyes held a faint coldness when she looked at people.

He was somewhat surprised, for with such beauty and bearing, how had she remained unknown?

“Please.” Yu Bohao continued to lead Ran Yan towards the back of the Government Office, into a quiet courtyard.

Once inside, he said, “Lady Ran, please wait here.

The Inspector will be with you shortly.”

Ran Yan was puzzled.

Why had Inspector Liu secretly brought her here alone?

All the necessary questions had already been asked, and although she had shown some analytical ability in front of him, it was just basic analysis.

Anyone with slightly meticulous thinking could have reached the same conclusions.

She didn’t believe Inspector Liu would want to discuss the case with her.

Yu Bohao kept observing Ran Yan’s expressions.

Seeing her continuously looking down at her toes with an even calmer and colder demeanor than before, several lanterns were lit around them.

The flickering light, bright one moment and dim the next, fell on her face.

She was extremely beautiful, but there was also a hint of morbid stillness in her appearance.

Yu Bohao, in charge of the criminal justice, often dealt with forensic doctors and even had to examine bodies on-site with them.

Those forensic doctors probably had the same expression as Ran Yan had when facing corpses, serious and cold.

Only someone like Forensic Doctor Feng Sanxun, who had examined countless bodies with his own hands, would gradually develop this kind of “dead person’s face.”
