Shi Nian was startled, though without asking much, he immediately understood Yan Jian's implication.
Shi Nian hesitated: "Are you saying Ben Shaming and James used to be a same-sex couple?"
Yan Jian squatted down, hugging herself tightly, her whole body shivering, unable to stop her tears.
"Yes... Little sister-in-law, don't tell me you actually didn't notice."
Shi Nian held the stair railing, thought it over, and seriously nodded: "I truly didn't notice."
"What?" Yan Jian was taken aback and looked up at her little sister-in-law.
At that moment, Shi Nian's phone rang; it was the police calling, asking Shi Nian to repeat his statement to assist with the investigation.
