My Evil Cinderella: Taming a Villainous Wife Chapter 31 - Are you faster than my bullet?

Lu Mello knew that he was giving too many clues for Shi Enxi but he wasn't worried if she would try to do something against him. He was now prepared on facing her head-on. He may have believed her innocent act in their past but this time, he was not going to allow her to have her ways.

"Ah... about that, I found out something shocking." He didn't want her to act in front of him anymore. He wanted to meet the real Shi Enxi.

Shi Enxi became worried inside. He found out about who was behind the accident?

The look on Lu Mello's face changed. "Because of the lack of evidence, I'm afraid I can't put the culprit to jail. I need to investigate more into it and find strong evidence against her."

Shi Enxi tried to remain as calm as possible. "Her?"

"Yes." Lu Mello turned away and walked toward the bench. He sat there, crossing his legs. "You see, this possible suspect actually has a horrible past with Mr. Wang Hao." He looked at her with sharp eyes. "Is that why you wanted to kill him, Shi Enxi?"

She looked at him, surprised. "W-What? What do you mean, Mello?"

Lu Mello snickered as he watched her continue her act. "You're making yourself look dumb right now, do you know that?"

Shi Enxi lowered her head and clenched her fists tight. It was no use if she continued on acting but just like what Lu Mello said, he didn't have any strong evidence, she was just a possible suspect so as long as she didn't admit to it, she was safe.

"It is part of my job to look into anyone close to Wang Hao. As for knowing his harassment on you... I only need to ask a servant who previously worked there."

The only person who knew about the harassment Wang Hao did to her was none other than the Head Maid, who also happened to be Huang Li's mother.

Zhao Yi Lan tried to help her a few times but it didn't end well. At that time, Zhao Yi Lan was a single mother and the only way she earned was by working under the Wang family as a maid.

"You can't say that it was me who tried to kill uncle Wang even if he was horrible to me." She continued to deny his accusations against her.

"Of course, that's why I did say that you are a possible suspect." Lu Mello smiled at her.

Shi Enxi's brow twitched in annoyance since she realized that Lu Mello was trying to trick her into confessing about it. "If I am one of the possible suspects then I will cooperate with you just to clear my name."

Lu Mello chuckled, "Another possible suspect is your childhood friend, Huang Li."

Shi Enxi stood quiet at the mention of Huang Li. Since she was standing in front of a lamppost, Lu Mello couldn't see the look on her face.

"You really should stop accusing innocent people like us."

Lu Mello laughed lightly, "Innocent? Are you seriously telling me that? Do you know that one word from me, his life could be ruined since his license as a doctor could be revoked? He is supposed to save lives and yet, you're making him kill. Do you really care about his well-being?"

How was Lu Mello able to know her plan on killing Wang Hao? He looked so sure that it was them behind Wang Hao's case.

"Shi Enxi, if you confess now, then I promise to help you out of this, you don't have to kill Wang Hao."

Help her?

A soft chuckle came from her. "Ah... seriously, I am so curious about how you were able to find out all about it." She started walking toward him, her eyes were cold. "I heard that you became one of the greatest detectives in this country. A prodigy. It looks like it's all true."

She stopped in front of him. I a blink of an eye, her hand was around his neck. "I think that I should kill you."

Lu Mello was calmly staring at her even after what she did. "Do you think that you will be able to hide it forever? Even if you kill me right now, someone else will learn about the truth."

She shrugged, "So what? At least I will be able to have more time to send people to hell."

"Well then, let's see how fast you can choke me." He smiled at her, "Are you faster than my bullet?"

Shi Enxi frowned at what he said She felt something was placed on her hip, when she looked at it, she saw Lu Mello's hand, his finger pointing at her like a gun.

Since he managed to distract Shi Enxi, Lu Mello took the chance to pull her hand away from his neck. Instead of pushing her away, he pulled her to him and made him sit on his lap. "My wife, do you know that you look prettier if you smile?"
