Chapter 667 -668: The Trap Designed by Liu Ruyan
Xia Weiwei felt uncertain.
If Xia Yangyang was indeed merely acting, then her acting skills had truly reached perfection.
Xia Weiwei asked, “What are you doing here?”
Xia Yangyang had just returned to Feng City, so how had she ended up in Beijing just a few days later?
Xia Yangyang replied, “Of course, it’s because of that five million deposit receipt. If you were unable to find it, I would have no choice but to go and ask Aunt Liu for it, or trade something valuable from me with her instead.”
Xia Weiwei watched the person in front of her with inquiry.
Could she really not know about the mishap that befell Liu Ruyan?
Xia Weiwei said, “You don’t need to go looking for my mom anymore, I have found the five million transfer receipt you want. However, I had to sneak it out. Those are old receipts from over a decade ago. It’s from a small, obscure bank in Switzerland that I can’t even find; it probably already went under. It’s only five million though, I can’t believe you are still fussing over it.”
To Xia Weiwei, five million was not a big deal.
But Xia Weiwei knew that Xia Yangyang was always obstinate about the possessions her mother had left behind.
Even if it was 500, not five million, she would definitely find a way to get it back.
Honestly, Xia Yangyang had changed quite a lot since she came back this time.
Sometimes, when Xia Weiwei looked at Xia Yangyang’s calm and cold face, she would feel a hint of fear.
She had never been afraid of Xia Yangyang before.
Xia Yangyang took the cheque from Xia Weiwei’s hands.
It was indeed a five million payment receipt from a Swiss bank.
The receiver was also Ma Jianguo.
In Xia Yangyang’s heart, it felt as if a stone that had been hanging there had finally dropped to the ground.
Actually, after her father’s car accident was revealed to be a trap set up by Liu Ruyan.
Xia Yangyang had pretty much concluded in her heart.
The death of her mother back then must be connected with Liu Ruyan.
Xia Yangyang had always thought that Gu Mingzhu had framed her mother for bribery with twenty million back then.
But now, Xia Yangyang almost confirmed that perhaps all of this was just a trap set up by Liu Ruyan.
How could a woman like Liu Ruyan be satisfied with only being her father’s secret lover back then?
Xia Yangyang thought back to a lot of incidents.
Originally blurry details were torn apart by her one by one.
Back then, it was Liu Ruyan who first said that Gu Mingzhu had framed her mother.
Liu Ruyan seemed to have a clear understanding of the incident.
On the contrary, when Xia Yangyang questioned Gu Mingzhu, she could only express remorse.
She only admitted that the twenty million was hers and that her mother had committed suicide because of it.
But she never elaborated on the cause and effect.
She never personally admitted to bribing officials and framing her mother.
Xia Yangyang had truly been careless back then.
Because Gu Mingzhu admitted that her mother’s death was related to herself, Xia Yangyang wholeheartedly believed that Gu Mingzhu was the one who had framed her mother.
And with Liu Ruyan fanning the flames on the side.
She even let her listen to that recording back then.
But thinking about it now, that recording might have been deliberately designed by Liu Ruyan to distort the interpretation and deliberately lead Xia Yangyang to misunderstand.
Xia Yangyang only realised now.
Back then, Liu Ruyan had set up a trap, carefully planned, step by step luring her deeper into it.
As a result, Xia Yangyang had truly foolishly stepped right into it.
But it was clear that the one who bribed Ma Jianguo was Liu Ruyan.
It was Liu Ruyan who had framed her mother for bribery, causing her to lose both her reputation and dignity.
As for embezzlement, there must be something hidden behind it.
Xia Yangyang’s fingers trembled a little.
But Xia Weiwei just thought that Xia Yangyang was reminded of her own mother and felt emotional.
