Chapter 594: We’re Going to Watch Sheng Kai’s Drama?
Sheng Kai’s despicable character exceeded Sheng Xiao’s imagination.
He had turned into a total monster in just a short time. Hence, Sheng Xiao did not have to care about their brotherhood anymore. It’s time to make Sheng Kai and Gu Ziling disappear from the Sheng family.
In the hospital, the butler’s wife was still waiting in front of the door of the operating room. She did not expect that her husband would be pushed to this extent.
The Second Young Master of the Sheng family had clearly said that he wanted to help her family, but what now?
He had cornered her husband till he jumped off a building. She had lost her way and didn’t know who to believe now.
Later, Sheng Xiao let Xu Che stay at the hospital. If the butler survived and his condition permitted, Xu Che would transfer him to another hospital.
“Who are you?” The butler’s wife asked Xu Che warily when she saw him.
“I’m someone who can save your husband and your son,” said Xu Che. “There is something you should know.”
Having said that, Xu Che played the recording for her.
The butler’s wife fell to the ground and wailed. “It was I who killed him. It’s me... I thought Second Young Master was a good man. I never thought that they would be so scrupulous in getting what they want. Shameless things.”
“Good that you know how ignorant you were now.” Xu Che sounded cold. “I don’t deny that you love your son more than your husband, but please give him the respect and trust that he deserves.”
“I was wrong. I was really wrong this time. I made him into this.”
“That’s right. It’s you.” Then, Xu Che looked around the surroundings of the operating room. He was hoping to not see Sheng Kai’s man get any chance to get near the butler.
If Sheng Kai was able to steal a person from his hand, then he might as well stop working as Sheng Xiao’s assistant.
As for Sheng Xiao, he got up early the next morning and prepared to return to Jianchuan.
“So, is everything resolved?” Mu Qiqi put on a coat for Sheng Xiao as she asked.
“The butler jumped off the building. His condition is very critical now. Xu Che is guarding in the hospital. We don’t have to waste our time here. We shall go back to settle the scores,” Sheng Xiao said, calmly.
“You’re sure it is Sheng Kai who did it?”
“He targeted the butler for the sake of the old man’s will, but he didn’t expect the butler to be so strong and unwilling to be used by him. So, the butler chose to go to the extremes by committing suicide to get out of the dilemma.”
“Then his son...”
“Xu Che had informed the police to take care of the case impartially if they wanted to keep their jobs. He didn’t need a lawyer, otherwise...”
Mu Qiqi nodded after hearing this. So many things had happened in one night that she felt sorry for sleeping so soundly last night.
“So, does that mean that we’re going to watch Sheng Kai’s drama once we get back?” Mu Qiqi asked again.
Sheng Xiao turned and took a glance at her, smiling, with a hint of mockery and danger.
This time, Sheng Kai was going to meet his doom. The only thing that was yet to be determined was that if there was still a place for him to stay in Jianchuan. But surely, there was no place for him in the Sheng family anymore.
...
That morning, Mu Qiqi did not attend her classes.
Looking at the empty seat beside her, Feng Shanshan felt lonely. She suddenly realized another value of her opponent’s existence. She found it meaningless to attend the classes without her, that it was better for her to go out and do fieldwork with Tang Yan.
Thinking of Tang Yan, Feng Shanshan had to admit that she had underestimated the ability of this man before.
She hadn’t expected him to have been a criminal police officer for seven years.
Seeing him so quiet and not very likeable, she thought he was just an ordinary police officer.
Unexpectedly, he came to become the team leader.
Feng Shanshan had to admit that Tang Yan’s identity as the team leader improved her impression of him. Because it proved his courage, overall planning ability, and coordination ability. Not anyone could take up the burden.
However, no matter how outstanding he was, he was just a sex partner to her. Besides, since Tang Yan was so good, many women must be attracted to him. Besides, his skills were amazing, so he must have had a lot of girlfriends before.
He was such a dangerous man. How could she get serious with him?
...
At four o’clock, Tang Yan returned to the police station as he had made a big discovery.
He found a person in Jianchuan who had tattooed such a pattern. The tattooist told Tang Yan that a woman had once asked him to teach her the craft of tattoo just to tattoo this symbol.
A woman!
Tang Yan also got his team to ask the people living on the hill if they had seen Mrs. Xiao before. One of them had a good memory and said that she had indeed seen such a woman walk up before.
So, Mrs. Xiao was listed as the prime suspect and was brought back to the police station for interrogation.
“Sir, I told you everything I know. Why are you arresting me?”
“That’s because you are not honest with us. Before Xiao Yue went missing, you had an argument with her. Why didn’t you tell this to the police?” The policeman started interrogating Mrs. Xiao.
“I... We always argued, so...”
“But you two fought unusually fierce this time, right? The neighbor saw you slap her.”
Mrs. Xiao’s eyes began to twitch. After a while, she said, “Yes, I slapped her. But it’s just a normal argument between mother and daughter.”
“Then tell me how did Xiao Yue and Chen Qiao get the tattoo?” The police continued.
“How would I know? Xiao Yue died so miserably.”
“You are still lying, aren’t you? Do you know this man?” The police showed Mrs. Xiao the photo of the tattooist. “You learned how to tattoo from him, or have you already forgotten?”
Mrs. Xiao’s face paled immediately.
“I don’t know him.”
“Xiao Yue wanted to marry Chen Qiao but you objected to it. So, they decided to elope. You found out about it and tried to stop Xiao Yue, but you failed,” said the policeman. “We know this from the Chen family. Chen Qiao talked to his mother before leaving with Xiao Yue.”
“Although you said that you supported Xiao Yue and Chen Qiao to be together, you acted the other way round behind their backs. You couldn’t bear to see your family running away with another man, leaving you just like how your husband did, right?”
Mrs. Xiao was clearly stimulated, and she exploded. “No, no, you’re spouting nonsense!”
Tang Yan was outside the interrogation room. He knew the mystery of this case was about to be solved.
Looking at his tired face, the professor asked, “So you brought Shanshan to visit her last night?”
“I couldn’t have brought you, could I?”
“In what mood did you take her there?”
