“Hey, I’d like to ask how Mrs. Shang is doing.” Ji Yan stopped the policeman with a simple smile on her face.
The policeman had never seen a suspect who was so indifferent in the police station. He was obviously stunned, and his eyes flashed because of her pure smile.
“I don’t know, either. I heard that she’s still in a coma in the hospital.” The policeman scratched his head and said in a good tone. In the face of Ji Yan, it should be difficult for anyone to be fierce.
Ji Yan nodded in thanks, but her heart was not clear. Mrs. Shang was in a coma, and Old Master Shang had a heart attack. If these things were put together, it could be imagined how difficult it would be for Shang Jinshen to be in such a situation.
Was this the trump card that Liu Lian had mentioned? It was indeed a big one. She had shaken all the Ji Gui groups by herself, making everyone flustered and unable to deal with her. This woman was really ruthless. She didn’t do anything and killed all the owners of the Ji Gui.
She was willing to part with the woman beside Liu Lian’s pillow, not to mention that she had always been jealous of the crazy wife of the Shang family.
Liu Lian didn’t feel guilty at all because she had been wronged by Ji Yan. From the moment Ji Yan refused her, they were enemies!
Liu Lian lowered her head to hide the viciousness in her eyes. Her movements were gentle as she served Shang Yunan, who was lying on the bed.
“What are you going to do now?” Suddenly, an official appeared in the ward, looking at the delicate woman beside the bed and asking.
Liu Lian raised her head and glared at him. She quickly looked around to see if there was anyone around. “Why are you here? Don’t you know how many people are watching us now? If we get caught, everything we do will be over.”
The official laughed and didn’t take it seriously. He said in a rather arrogant tone, “What are you afraid of?”
Standing up, Liu Lian didn’t look at the weak Shang Yunan on the bed. She looked gloomy and said, “What can I be afraid of? Hurry up and find a way to let Yu An come out and try to take down the Ji Gui family in one fell swoop!”
Liu Lian’s face, which had always been weak, was full of determination to win. The official’s smile became bigger and he said in an evil tone, “Why are you in such a hurry? Isn’t it better to step on Shang Jinshen when he can’t turn over?”
Liu Lian turned her head, stared at him, and said in a rapid tone, “What do you know? Someone like Shang Jingshen will bite us when he has a chance. If it weren’t for Wan Linghe, do you think I would dare to confront him directly? Back then…” She suddenly stopped talking, and her face looked terrible. Obviously, she thought of something that made her afraid.
The smile on his face gradually disappeared. He was one of the people who was most familiar with what had happened that year. After all, he had been with Mrs. Shang for a long time. It just so happened that he had witnessed how Shang Jinshen had taken down the Ji Gui family ruthlessly and decisively. At that time, he only felt that the silent and cold young man was too powerful. He held back because he wanted to kill him.
If he didn’t have the confidence now, he wouldn’t have dared to go against the young man in the past. But now, it was unknown who would win or lose. The official momentum suddenly became fierce. The housekeeper, who used to be quiet, actually had such a strong and cruel side.
Liu Lian looked at the official prestige and her heart beat fast. She was also afraid of the man in front of her, who had been restrained for many years. Others didn’t know, but she knew the background of the official prestige.
This murderer had been hiding for so many years, especially hiding by the side of Mrs. Shang. It had to be said that the official prestige was a figure. If she cooperated with such a person, although she had a higher chance of winning, the danger was also increased. The official prestige was a madman, and it was hard to say whether he would bite her in the end.
Fortunately, she had something on him. Thinking of this, Liu Lian smiled slowly. She twisted her body and approached him. It seemed that she was leaning against him. She said coyly, “He’s an official. Look, Yu An has been hiding for so long. He’s so aggrieved. Besides, he’s your son. If you don’t feel sorry for him, I’ll feel sorry for him!”
Liu Lian inadvertently revealed a big secret. Shang Yu An was actually the son of the government official, not the son of the Shang south. It could be imagined how many years she had been secretly in cahoots with the government official.
Fortunately, Shang Yunan, who was lying on the bed, was in a coma. Otherwise, he would have died of anger because of this big green hat.
official Wei reached out and touched Liu Lianjiao’s soft body ambiguously. He smiled evilly and said, “Don’t worry, my son. How can I not plan for him?”
Although he said so, Liu Lian was not worried at all. Even if Shang Yu An was the son of an official, he had never taken him seriously. An official was cold in his bones. Liu Lian had never expected a son to be able to control him.
However, she smiled and whispered in his ear, “Yes, I am still waiting for our whole family to reunite. When the time comes, we will take over the village’s official forest together, and the merchants will be our family’s.”
When he heard the words “Shangguan Lin”, the official’s prestige was almost invisible. With his shrewdness, how could he not hear the hidden threat in Liu Lian’s mouth? Guan Lin was his eldest son, who was raised in his hometown.
As for Guan Lin, he had feelings for the official prestige. After all, he was his first son. Moreover, the person he killed in the past was his mother. This matter had been hidden in the official prestige for many years. No one knew about it, but Liu Lian knew it clearly!
“It seems that this woman is going to rely on this evidence to manipulate me?” After thinking it over, he smiled and kissed Liu Lian. He began to pester her in the quiet ward as if no one was around.
Before leaving, Liu Lian went out with her sunglasses and asked in a low voice, “How is Han Xiulan?”
“You’ve taken so many sleeping pills. It’s good enough to save your life,” the official said flatly.
There was a hint of joy in Liu Lian’s eyes. She had been suppressed by Han Xiulan for so many years. Every time she saw Han Xiulan, she could only lower her head. She did not know how much hatred she had in her heart. Now she finally breathed a sigh of relief. She did not know where Han Xiulan got her charm. No matter how hard she tried to deal with Shang Yunan, the old man was unwilling to divorce Han Xiulan.
It was because of Han Xiulan that she became a mistress that everyone despised. But so what? The winner was the king. As long as she eventually became the hostess of the Ji Gui, who would dare to say anything about her? Humph.
The official glanced at Liu Lian. How could she not know the jealousy and hatred in her heart? What else could a woman have other than this little bit of caution?
“Officer Wei, find an opportunity to let Yu An out.” Liu Lian stood still and spoke in a commanding tone instead of a normal tone of discussion.
This matter couldn’t be delayed anymore. She didn’t want to help the officials to take over the Ji Gui in the end, but the inheritance would fall into the hands of the countryside official Lin. She wouldn’t do such a stupid thing to others as a wedding dress.
If the official power didn’t agree, then don’t blame her for forcing him. Looking at Liu Lian’s appearance, the official power also knew that this woman couldn’t be provoked.
He nodded, agreed, and turned to leave. It turned out that Shang Yu An had not been caught. He had been hidden by the power of the government.
No wonder the police and Shang Jing’an couldn’t find him.
