Hence Will had become a suspect?
Nico shook his head firmly. "No, Will wouldn't harm me. He has been a companion for decades. He has no reason or need to harm me, Beinian."
Nico's gaze turned sad, but also determined. "Before you appeared, Will was my only family."
Family.
The only one.
Li Beinian fell silent and nodded at Nico.
Nico smiled faintly. "Beinian, I can guess who it might be. Leave this matter to me."
"Really? You already know?" Li Beinian's eyes lit up. "Who could it be? Someone who works closely with the P.I.T. and is after these things."
Nico nodded. "I have an idea, but we still need to verify. But who was this person you just mentioned?"
"Lin Ya? He's the mayor of Guang City, the brother of my brother's girlfriend and my ex-fiancé's current wife."
"Fiancé?" Mu Xichen raised his eyebrow. "Is this how you refer to him in public?"
"It's ex-fiancé!"
