After being murdered by my whole family, I was reborn

Chapter 2092 In Trouble, In Big Trouble

“After I was arrested, I made Er Ya get engaged in my place, and now Er Ya has been arrested too.” At this point, Zhang Ran looked at Officer Ma, who was sweating profusely with nervousness: “Now that you two know this secret, it’s best to keep it to yourselves and not investigate him, lest he silence you.”

Officer Ma was inwardly groaning. He was in deep trouble, really in deep trouble! He shouldn't have been standing there listening to all this!!

Qi Hongyan had no idea how powerful Gu Jinhe was.

Ignorance is bliss, and the fearless are fearless, but when she saw Officer Ma's face contorted in a grimace, she weighed the options and looked at Zhang Ran again, asking, "If we don't investigate him, how can we clear your name? He's framing you for murder, and you could be sentenced to death. This time, even mental illness won't save your life."

Officer Ma dared not linger. He felt that if he listened any longer, he wouldn't live to see the next morning. Without saying a word, he turned and left. But he didn't go far. Instead, he returned to his desk, stood guard, and dialed Xiao Xie's number.

Qi Hongyan glanced at Officer Ma's departing figure, then looked away, took a step forward to the railing, and quickly whispered to Zhang Ran, "Did you kill him? Tell me the truth, so I know what's going on."

Zhang Ran raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this: "Are you hard of hearing? I already said it was Gu Jinhe who did it, why do you still doubt me?"

Qi Hongyan's guilty eyes darted around nervously. "Sorry, I understand now." It was her boss's usual behavior that had clouded her judgment; she wasn't usually like this.

"No need to apologize." Zhang Ran smiled slightly. "I tried to kill them, but I failed."

Qi Hongyan: "..."

Seeing her dazed expression, Zhang Ran nodded at her. "Just as you guessed, I caused the gas explosion, but they were lucky to survive. Gu Jinhe bribed Guo Xiao to kill them and frame me."

Qi Hongyan: "...Guo Xiao isn't your bodyguard? How could he have been bribed by Gu Jinhe?"

"His entire family has disappeared; they were arrested by Gu Jinhe's men." Zhang Ran revealed the real reason why Guo Xiao betrayed her.

Qi Hongyan's face turned serious after hearing this; this was a big problem.

Guo Xiao had irrefutable evidence of murder, yet he accused his boss of orchestrating it behind the scenes.

How can I get him to change his mind?

His entire family's lives are in Gu Jinhe's hands; changing his mind would be as difficult as climbing to heaven.

Seeing that she looked unwell, Zhang Ran immediately made a decision: "Do as I say. Gather the people who attended the engagement party today and have them hold a press conference to sever ties with me."

Qi Hongyan: "...They might not listen to me."

“They will listen.” Zhang Ran explained confidently: “I gave them the signed share transfer agreement a few months ago. You have them sign it immediately and get it notarized to sever ties with me. If it’s too late, Gu Jinhe will use my murder as an excuse to seize all the companies and assets under my name.”

"Gu Jinhe has two purposes: one is for Xie Wei, and the other is to covet my property. We must not let him succeed."

Qi Hongyan's eyes lit up with surprise upon hearing this. "You had it all planned out long ago?" Otherwise, the share transfer agreement wouldn't have been signed months ago.

"Prepare for a rainy day." Zhang Ran continued, "Make sure they sever ties with me, protect themselves, and don't hold me back. Even if it's just to save me, it's still a way to save me."

Qi Hongyan's eyes hardened considerably, and her complexion improved as well: "Okay, I will pass on the message."
