Chapter 227: Chapter 228: Tingyan to the Rescue
As this thought crossed his mind, Li Tingyan inexplicably recalled the scene from a few days ago when Ni Jia tried to open his letter, and he pressed his lips tightly.
He carefully compared this letter with the one Nianyang had sent before, the more he looked at it, the more he felt something was off. He felt it was necessary to investigate to prevent unforeseen incidents.
Li Tingyan quickly arrived at the mailroom. The staff inside felt guilty upon seeing Li Tingyan enter, thinking he knew what they had done, and instinctively said, "Mr. Manager, I didnât mean to let Doctor Ni see Saoziâs letter. She coerced me!"
Li Tingyanâs expression darkened immediately. So his suspicions were correct; Ni Jia actually dared to secretly open Niniâs letter to him. What was she trying to do?
There was no time to deal with him. Li Tingyan directly called Ni Jia, only to learn that she had taken several days off before the National Day.
Li Tingyan calculated the time and realized it was the day she took leave after snooping on Niniâs letter meant for him. So, had Ni Jia gone to make trouble for his wife?
Damn it!
Li Tingyan cursed under his breath, furiously regretting why he hadnât thought of this sooner. He didnât know if anything had happened to his wife in all these days!
If Ni Jia dared to do anything to Nini, he would never let her off!
Li Tingyan immediately applied for leave in advance for the New Year with his superior and bought a train ticket to the county city. Since it was just before the National Day holiday, tickets for immediate departure were unavailable, and he had to wait on the train all afternoon to board at midnight.
Li Tingyan was agitated and uneasy, continually praying that it was just a false alarm!

"Gu Nianyang, wonât you admit that youâre a fraud responsible for Mrs. Heâs death?" Under the glaring lights, Ni Heng didnât know how many times he pressured Nianyangâs ear with this question.
Having been held for an entire day, Nianyangâs voice was so weak it was barely audible,
"I am not a fraud. I did not cause Mrs. Heâs death. Why should I confess?"
A harsh look flashed in Ni Hengâs eyes; itâs been five or six hours, and this young lady indeed has a strong will. Others would have collapsed by now!
His competitive spirit was aroused; he was determined to force Nianyang to admit it before heâd be satisfied!
"Donât bother arguing!"
"You are responsible for Mrs. Heâs death. The patientâs family has already identified you!"
"Because of you, Mrs. He fell gravely ill. Mrs. He hasnât come around yet, almost a day now. Wonât you admit the problem was with your treatment!"
"Gu Nianyang, admit it quickly; Iâll let you go immediately, how about it?"
Switching between abuse and coaxing, Ni Heng was like a thousand flies buzzing at her ear. Nianyang suffered from a headache, an entire day without eating or drinking, and her vision swam with dizziness, yet the interrogation seemed far from over.
[Master, drink some Spiritual Spring water]Had Nianyang not repeatedly warned him not to act rashly, the dumpling was anxious enough to want to show his true form and kill this Ni Heng.
"No, I canât..." Nianyang shook her head. There were monitors present, and any of her actions would be recorded. She couldnât afford a mistake.
She had been careless once already, and couldnât take another risk!
"Gu Nianyang, youâre thirsty, arenât you? Just confess, and Iâll give you water?"
"I..."
Ni Heng thought she was about to confess, hastily widening his eyes in excitement.
Nianyangâs lips parted slightly; due to the prolonged lack of food and water, her voice was terribly hoarse, "I request the right to write a letter to my partner."
She clearly knew she had already fallen into Ni Jiaâs trap. This place was under her influence, leaving Nianyang helpless. She could only ask for help from Li Tingyan.
Ni Hengâs expression changed,
"Dream on. Youâre trying to find someone to help you lie, arenât you? Before you confess, you wonât see anyone."
