“This is something you definitely know more than anything else.” Thinking of her daughter’s situation at this moment, Mo Simin was sad and angry, her tearful eyes looked at him reproachfully tightly, “I don’t know what kind of calculations you and Zhuo Yunruo are playing again, but you know very well that my daughter hasn’t defrauded you of anything at all! That 500w was also given to her by you on your own initiative, she didn’t even know there was such a thing until just now.”
What fraud?
Lan Yu Feng and Yan Nan glanced at each other, Yan Nan comprehended and immediately went out to dial the phone to find someone to investigate.
And over here, Lan Yu Feng just quietly listened to Mo Simin continue.
“That 500w is now frozen, in the future, after my Zi Ge confirms her innocence, we will immediately return the money to you. So … “Mo Simin took a step closer and looked at him almost begging, “Mr. Lan, please don’t torture my daughter anymore! I know that in the past, it was Old Meng and Zhuo Zhenbang who wronged you, but … Zige is innocent! You use your child to torture her every day, isn’t that enough? She’s suffered enough since she was a child. Now that you’ve gotten your revenge, why do you have to kill my poor daughter? At least, she is Little Douzi’s own mother, for the sake of the child … you shouldn’t treat her like this!”
“You go back first, this matter, I will investigate again.” In the middle of the day, Lan Yu Feng pursed his lips before speaking in a somber manner.
“Investigation? There’s no need to investigate this matter at all, as long as you come forward and say that the 500w was paid into Zi Ge’s account on your own initiative, all the charges won’t stand!”
Since it was related to Zhuo Yunruo, I thought that it wouldn’t be that simple.
“I’ll be measured.”
He, still with such a short answer, gave no assurance.
He asked Velvet Sh. Mo Simin was anxious and was about to say something, but Lan Yu Feng had already raised his voice, “Yan Nan.”
Yan Nan hurried in, and Lan Yu Feng glanced at Mo Simin before ordering, “Send Mrs. Meng away.”
“Mr. Lan!” Mo Simin called out anxiously.
“Mrs. Meng, please!” Yan Nan made a gesture.
Mo Simin had a bad premonition, and with a pale face, she turned back undeterred, crying and begging, “You should at least call me auntie, Yu Feng, you desperately saved me once before, I don’t believe that you’re the kind of person with a heart of stone … Please don’t force Zi Ge to do it anymore… … She’ll go crazy! She’ll go crazy!”
The cries of agony, echoing down the long corridors of the hospital, seemed more and more harrowing.
One word was sharp as a knife, pulling at his heart. He lay on the bed, his eyes tightly closed, as if he were bitterly suppressing the great pain that was settling in his heart.
The surroundings, quieted down, were inexplicably hard on him.
It was a kind of, welling up from the heart, desert, cold …
Can’t Help Myself …
At times like these, there was always an all-too-familiar face in that desolate clearing, constantly tormenting him …
Meng Zige …
Zi Ge …
She’s crying …
She’s grieving …
She’s in despair …
“Sir.” Not knowing how long it had been, Yan Nan returned. Pushing the door in, his complexion was not yet able to be restrained, and was completely taken in by Yan Nan’s eyes. Yan Nan was only shocked for a split second, immediately relieved.
Recently, such a lonely and isolated look has become more and more common on Mr. face. Since Meng Zige left and the child was sent abroad …
Before, it was unimaginable that a man who was always high and mighty and proud would have such moments.
But such people, at such times, are often the most intolerable.
“Gone?”
“Well, when she was sent downstairs, Mrs. Meng stood in front of the hospital for a while longer before she left.”
Lan Yu Feng didn’t say anything, just sank his eyes in a thoughtful manner. Yan Nan said, “Already asked clearly, the police station side said that you and Zhuo Yunruo together sued Ms. Meng for fraud.”
“And then what?”
“Ms. Meng has always confessed to anything with no explanation.”
Lan Yu Feng wrinkled his eyebrows and didn’t make a sound for a long time, just lowered his head and mused.
After a long time, Yan Nan still couldn’t help but ask, “Sir, should we send someone to the police station? I heard from the bureau that Ms. Meng is not doing well.”
“What do you mean not so good?” He snapped back to his senses and looked up, his face sullen and unusually ugly.
“I heard … that he hadn’t eaten for a day and a night, and hadn’t even taken a sip of water.”
His hands, resting on the sheets, tightened slightly, his breathing heavier. Don’t turn his face away, looking out the window, remaining speechless. When Yan Nan thought that he would not speak again, he heard a somber voice come through, “Her matter … does not need to be managed anymore.”
“Mr. is worried about Tang Yao Yang s side …?” It wasn’t that Yan Nan didn’t understand.
Lan Yu Feng looked grave, “Perhaps, this is a test.”
“But what if Miss Zhuo is really trying to frame Miss Meng?”
“Meng Zige is her sister. You know very well what she is.”
Yan Nan nodded slightly, “Miss Zhuo is a sensible person, however, it cannot be ruled out that she will be utilized by Tang Yaoyang.”
It wasn’t that Lan Yu Feng wasn’t worried about this, besides, he didn’t understand Zhuo Yunruo’s intentions in doing this.
“So that’s why we can only wait now. Let’s see us and Zhuo Yunruo, who in the end is more able to stay calm. If by the day of the court date, she still doesn’t let up …,” Lan Yu Feng looked up to look at Yan Nan, “I’ll personally go to court. You contact the lawyer now and tell him to be prepared for everything.”
“Yes, sir.” Yan Nan answered, and then, with a worried glance at him, she still couldn’t help but say, “I’m just afraid that if we don’t do anything now, the people on the Meng family’s side will misunderstand mister even more.”
His words, spoken, the ward was quiet for a long time.
Lan Yu Feng slowly closed his eyes, as if he was very tired. Only after a long time did he utter a dark voice, “It doesn’t matter …”
Doesn’t it really matter?
If that was true, why was he so tired? This overwhelmed?
Yan Nan didn’t point him out after all, just said nothing and retreated silently.
Inside the study.
Tang Yao Yang’s men were reporting to him.
“Are you saying that Lan Yu Feng still hasn’t done anything? None of his people have shown up at the police station?” Tang Yao Yang asked while absently playing with the pen in his hand.
“Yes, Master. Our information is accurate.”
Tang Yao Yang narrowed his eyes, a few more points of danger in the bottom of his eyes. It seems that Lan Yu Feng is really a man without a heart. His only weakness, perhaps … really just that child.
“Master, may I ask for anything else?”
Tang Yao Yang drew back, “Report to me anytime there’s a situation. And … don’t let Ms. Zhuo know that I’m staring at this matter.”
“Definitely.” The henchman nodded with certainty.
“Uh-huh. Go out!” Tang Yaoyang waved his hand. Just at this time, a cough was suddenly heard coming from downstairs, and Tang Yaoyang wrinkled his eyebrows, dropping the pen in his hand to start and head out.
She seems to be coughing more and more lately, yet she refuses to go to the doctor.
What a stubborn, stupid woman!
Three days have passed …
Under her parents’ worried eyes, Zige finally ate something and went inside. Even if she was punishing herself, however, she couldn’t punish her parents.
In the morning, after breakfast, she threw up again in the restroom. Back in the detention room, the dark and dreary environment made her find it difficult to even breathe.
Mother said that she went to beg Lan Yu Feng. And he, always indifferent …
Indifferent …
She laughed at that.
Not at all, not disappointed.
Because … she never had any hope again either from start to finish …
Not a bit, not a heartache.
Because … the pain is numbing …
That man, the only thing she saw clearly, was his … cold, hard, iron heart …
Midnight.
Mossy Min cried and woke up again.
Meng Yuhui was also awakened and turned on his side, gathering his wife in his arms, “Why are you awake again?”
“Just thinking about Zige staying in that cold house right now makes me toss and turn.” Mo Simin wiped her tears, “I don’t know if she’ll freeze. I’ve touched it, that quilt is too thin and the bed board is hard, she definitely won’t be able to sleep.”
How could Meng Yuhui not be heartbroken. “I went to the prison yesterday to see Zhuo Zhenbang, but it’s just a pity that even now, he can’t reach Zhuo Yunruo on his own accord. It only said that Zhuo Yunruo would help plead for mercy if he came to call.”
“I hope he’s really sympathetic.” Mossy Min touched her painfully clogged chest and eased her breath.
“Zige is also his daughter after all, he won’t let it go.” Meng Yu Hui comforted his wife.
“That Zhuo Yunruo is still our Zige’s own sister! She can really do it!” Mo Simin couldn’t help but rant, “How come the two sisters are so different!”
Meng Yuhui patted his wife’s back, “Alright, it’s getting late, you hurry up and go to sleep.”
These past few days, with their daughter locked up, the two of them were simply having a harder time than Zige. It was rare to get a few minutes of peaceful sleep.
Mossy closed her eyes and went away, and within two minutes she couldn’t help but sigh again.
“Lan Yu Feng can be so cruel …”
“Don’t think about it.”
“Poor child.” Mo Simin murmured to herself, “Going forward, if she can really get out, she’ll still have to grieve over the little bean …”
Meng Yu Hui didn’t answer, just patted his wife’s back. Mo Simin was also really tired, leaning into her husband’s arms, murmuring a few words, she finally couldn’t stand the fatigue and closed her eyes to sleep.
“Ms. Meng, in two days we’ll be in court, are you sure you don’t want to retract your confession?” I don’t know how many times I’ve been asked this question.
Ziggy crouched against the corner of the wall, shaking her head woodenly, her eyes lifeless.
Not needed … and not necessary …
Doing so would completely end the entanglement between her and Lan Yu Feng …
Besides, even if he were to retract his confession, if he really wanted to make her suffer, there were ways to do it. So why bother?
“Ms. Meng, you still have two days to think about it.”
“No …” She shook her head again, rejecting the other’s kind offer to advise her.
Seeing her complete indifference, the other shook his head and retreated.
The whole house, plunged into a pale silence.
Zige slowly collapsed onto the bed, stiffening her tired body. The mattress was cold, but she was already numb, so she didn’t feel it.
Mechanically, he closed his eyes. I hadn’t closed my eyes for a few nights, but I didn’t feel sleepy, just … tired …
From the bottom of my heart, the exhaustion that wells up like I’m going to die …
“Menzie Ge! There’s someone outside looking!” Suddenly, the door was opened again, and someone outside called out in a rough voice.
Must be mom and dad …
Even more tired, he still struggled to hold himself up and climb down from the bed still.
Under the guard of police officers, she walked out of the detention room and was brought to a long table. She froze slightly at the sight of the exquisitely dressed woman across from her, wearing sunglasses.
In front of such a Su Xi, her wretchedness at the moment had nothing to hide.
