Chapter 75: Fierce Quarrel

  "Yes, Miss Tong. Since the housing administration office is almost closed for the holiday, I just wanted to let you know first. After the New Year, I will prepare the necessary procedures and transfer the house to your name." As a university classmate of Liu Kang's, Ming Han had also been surprised that his fairly good friend Liu Kang was actually gay.

  But Zeng Minghan had also promised to keep the secret for Liu Kang and Xiao Ya, but he didn't expect that Xiao Ya would be raped, and the photos were even sent to school. Xiao Ya was expelled from school and later committed suicide. Liu Kang also dropped out of school. In the end, although they got their diplomas, Zeng Minghan knew it was because of the influence of the Liu family that the school gave them the diplomas.

  After that, Zeng Minghan and Liu Kang lost contact with each other. He also indirectly heard some rumors that after Xiao Ya's death, Liu Kang became a different person, indulging in wine and women, being arrogant and domineering, and thoroughly becoming an unscrupulous second-generation official.

  When Zeng Minghan received the phone call from Liu Kang, he was somewhat surprised. He had been to that courtyard a few times before, when Xiao Ya was still alive. At that time, he was invited as their guest, and although they were two men, Zeng Minghan saw in Xiao Ya and Liu Kang the same kind of love as other couples. They would exchange loving glances, occasionally display some tender affection, and warmly greet him, this classmate and friend who kept their secret and accepted their relationship.

  Zeng Minghan investigated Tong Qiang, although he was a bit surprised that she was an artist. However, when he heard the news of Liu Kang's suicide, Zeng Minghan wasn't shocked at all. After Xiao Ya's death, Zeng Minghan had a vague feeling that one day Liu Kang would also commit suicide and go to the underworld to follow his deceased lover. Of course, Zeng Minghan only thought that Liu Kang's suicide was just a rumor from outside, as for the inside story, he naturally didn't know.

  "When did he call you?" Tong Jing was shocked, and immediately keenly sensed that this was the key evidence to clear herself of suspicion of killing Liu Kang.

  "Just a moment, let me check my phone." Zeng Minghan didn't understand why Tong Qiang asked this, but he quickly flipped through the call records. "January 18th, 4:38."

  Less than five minutes after I left, Liu Kang was killed. The person in the dark must have been lurking around, waiting for me to leave by car before going in to kill Liu Kang and setting up the murder scene to frame me!

  But that's not right! Tong Jiao furrowed her brow, Liu Kang had made a phone call. If there was a mobile phone at the scene, Guan Yao would have definitely found out through investigating the phone records that Liu Kang wasn't dead when he left, which means the phone must have been taken away by the killer. If Cheng Tian Nan really wanted to frame him for killing Liu Kang, why didn't he find Zeng Ming Han? This clear piece of time evidence is the key to proving his innocence.

  Cheng Tian Nan didn't really want to frame himself! He deliberately set up a murder scene, but didn't stop Zeng Ming Han from calling him. So, it seems he wanted to show off in front of Guan Yao?

  "Xiao Tong, whose call is it?" Mu Fang withdrew his fist and lazily ignored Tan Jingyu who was still leaning on his shoulder, his concerned gaze turned to Tong Xiao who was standing in front of the balcony with a hung-up phone.

  "Liu Kang's former university classmate, now a lawyer, said that Liu Kang called him before he died and transferred the suburban house to my name." Tong Jing answered truthfully, but still wondered why Cheng Tian Nan did this. It seems that he first used the murder scene to frame himself, but didn't take any actual action, Cheng Tian Nan really was trying to show off in front of Guan Yao.

  "Did Liu Kang abduct you afterwards? What's the specific time? Can you prove that Liu Kang was still alive when you left the yard?" Mu Fang's peerlessly handsome face was filled with an excited expression, his eyes shining brightly as he looked at Tong Jiao. Although Mu Fang knew that Tong Jiao wouldn't kill anyone, not even in self-defense, but unfortunately there was no evidence. Now this phone call was almost the best evidence.

  The bruises and swelling on Tan Jingyu's face caused by the Liu family had dissipated, leaving only a few remaining marks from Mo Fang's unkind punch around his eyes. However, with sunglasses on, it was barely noticeable. The three of them formed a beautiful landscape line - Mo Fang's evil elegance, Tan Jingyu's handsome and heroic appearance, and Tong Jiao's lovely small face.

  "Buy more snacks, so you can eat them while watching the Spring Festival Gala."

  "The New Year's goods should also be prepared in advance. If not, when guests come to pay their respects and visit during the Chinese New Year, there will be nothing to entertain them with, which would be embarrassing."

  "We should also buy some door couplets for the Dragon Year and stick them on the doors and windows..."

  Tan Jingyu was like Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden, wanting to buy everything in sight. His shopping cart was filled with things in an instant. On the other hand, Mu Fang had his hands inserted into his pockets, and even in a crowded supermarket, he still walked proudly as if he were strutting down a T-shaped catwalk. His devilishly handsome face wore a charming smile, and his elegant and noble attire made him look like a visiting prince rather than an ordinary person shopping for New Year's goods.

  "Do we have that? Is this wine for human consumption?" Mu Fang looked at Tan Jingyu with disgust, standing in front of the shelf selecting wine, and seriously doubted whether he was really the Third Young Master of the Tan family. He would actually buy wine in a supermarket?

  "Ah, yes! In the study, there is a large wine cabinet that stores many fine wines." Tan Jingyu turned around with a smile, his face full of sinister calculations. With a bad stomach, he still indulged in drinking, and he would have to get rid of the wine in the cabinet himself for Xiao Fangfang's sake.

  "Tan Jingyu, you dare to lay hands on my wine, I..." Mu Fang's sharp senses detected something was off, his fierce gaze warning the smiling Tan Jingyu, this bastard was capable of doing anything, and those precious wines in the cellar were all Mu Fang's treasures.

  "Is my character really that bad?" Tan Jingyu smiled and made an innocent gesture, but his eyes were 100% sincere.

  "Do you still have any dignity?" Mu Fang sneered, his beautiful eyes full of warning and fierce light, but his momentum was insufficient. In Tan Jingyu's eyes, Mu Fang was like a Persian cat that had been provoked for a long time. Although he looked ferocious, he couldn't help but want to reach out and pet his head, calming down this angry cat.

  Tong glared at the two of them, who had started arguing again. Before, she always thought that Mu Ge had an aura about him, but now it seemed like he was easily provoked by Tan San Ge and would blow up in anger.

  "Buy New Year's goods, buy New Year's goods." Tan Jingyu shrugged his shoulders and continued to pick out New Year's goods. Mu Fang looked at Tong Jiang's face and saw a smile, no longer gloomy and dark, and followed behind Tan Jingyu.

  After wandering around the supermarket for two hours, the trunk of the car was packed to the brim. The sky had already darkened, and Tong Jiao stared blankly at the fully loaded trunk, her face shocked as she gazed at Tan Jingyu. Could it be that Third Brother Tan has a shopping addiction? He actually shopped for over two hours!

  Mu Fang's mouth twitched slightly, it was the first time he saw a man who actually liked shopping in supermarkets so much, going through each floor from the food section to the daily necessities, and finally even bought two potted plants and put them on the back seat of the car.

  "Hey, what's with the looks? There are only three days left until New Year's, this is a New Year's gift. Otherwise, I'll let you guys freeze to death on New Year's Day!" Tan Jingyu looked at Tong Dang and Mu Fang in front of him with dissatisfaction, they were staring at him as if he was a monster. Then, with a guilty conscience, he opened his mouth, "Am I really that terrifying?"

  With synchronized movements, Tong Jiang and Mu Fang nodded at the same time. It wasn't just a little scary, it was extremely terrifying! He actually squeezed into the crowd like those aunties, and forcibly snatched two free Spring Festival couplets, making Tong Jiang and Mu Fang feel that Tan San Shao in front of them had been possessed by Martians.

  "Cut, it's rare to see so many monsters, let's go eat dinner and then head home." A slap on Tong Jiao's forehead, a slap on Mu Fang's head, Tan Jingyu proudly whistled, this is the kind of atmosphere that makes Chinese New Year lively.

  Digression

  Cough, the two of them had a disagreement, actually neither of them was wrong, they just stood on different grounds and looked at the problem with different concerns. Xiaotang was so angry that she stormed off, while Tan Shao still maintained his composure, perhaps this is also due to their different personalities.
