He had officially run out of options to get in touch with her

Never in her life had Zhou Qin experienced such treatmentNeverThe rooht froht in the roo her every ti and oppressive auraShe could barely breatheTruth be told, she didn't have the energy to do even that; she hadn't eaten since she'd been brought to the o, and the fact that she hadn't slept for two nights straight only made it so much worse

She wasn't alone in the roorey Mao suit sat across from her in front of the tiny deskBeside thefuriously on her notepad

SMACK! The table lamp shook when the man slammed his palm on the tabletopZhou Qin didn't flinch

”You and I both know that Li Yundong murdered He Shao, Miss Zhou,” said the man”You are a key witness of the ainst him in court”

Zhou Qin chuckled breathless

God, she sounded so weak
