The issue of seating order, for Chen Xiao, was merely a curiosity at this moment.
The reason is that from childhood to adulthood, he has seen quite a few families very particular about dining etiquette.
Generally speaking, they are seated according to seniority.
Of course, more families don't have strict rules or customs.
The murderer might have randomly placed their bodies this way.
But while the seating order might not matter, the direction in which they hold their hearts certainly does.
Simply put, Jiao Guoxuan offered his heart to his wife and daughter.
Jiao Yan, on the other hand, held her heart out for her father to see.
Both of these seem quite normal, except that this stepmother, Wei Rong, directed her heart towards her stepdaughter.
As if to say, "I can give you my heart!"
Chen Xiao was not encountering for the first time a case involving stepmothers and stepchildren.
The very first case he officially investigated had this kind of relationship!
