At twelve o'clock in the night, Zhang Zhencai and his five companions were escorted by the police to the hospital for treatment. Before they arrived at the hospital, Zhang Zhencai found Zhou Yanhua later. She had not received much training. During the conflict, she was shot in the stomach. When she was carried on a stretcher, the doctor diagnosed that she had injured her lungs. Before she arrived at the hospital, she stopped breathing. Before she died, Zhou Yanhua muttered Liu Yuyuan's name.
When the news was passed to the Public Security Bureau and the police told Liu Yuyuan, who had just completed the supplementary record, she was stunned for a moment, and then very calmly expressed her regret and sadness.
But she was neither sad nor happy in her heart. During the years she was in the Guo family, everyone knew that she was a tool used by Liu Xuan to disgust her sister-in-law. Although her life in the Guo family was well-fed and well-clothed, it was definitely not as happy as reported in the outside media. Her nominal father did not care about her, and she could not even see him once a year. As for her nominal biological mother, she was dealt with by Liu Xuan's sister-in-law early on, and Liu Yuyuan had never seen her since she was a child.
She knew from the time she was old enough that she was not a member of the Guo family, and she was not liked by Liu Xuan. When she was young, when her two cousins were most playful, she was the one who was teased. She was locked in the closet, thrown into the trash can, and locked outside the door when she went out to play.
Later, because of playing a prank on her, the two cousins were beaten by Old Guo. From then on, her life became better. Just when Liu Yuyuan thought that she had finally gotten her reward, Zhou Yanhua, her biological mother, came to the Guo family in the name of a nanny. Before Liu Yuyuan could recover from the news that Zhou Yanhua was her biological mother, Zhang Zhencai also came.
Liu Yuyuan still dares not think about her collapse during that period. From that time on, she began to hate everyone. She felt that she had the most miserable life in the world, and that the Guo family, the Liu family, Zhang Zhencai, and Zhou Yanhua were all the culprits who made her life so miserable.
Wu Xuqiang, Liu Yuge and Wang Qianglin also soon came to work for the Guo family under various names. From that time on, Liu Yuyuan became a bird in a cage. No matter what she did, there were always people watching her.
But compared to others, Zhou Yanhua was really nice to her. When she was awakened by thunder at night, no matter what time it was, she would come to her room, stay with her, and sing nursery rhymes from her hometown to her in her gentle voice.
But the warmth and tenderness was too little, far less than the pain she suffered from them.
Liu Yuyuan felt very relieved. Zhou Yanhua was dead, and after a while, Zhang Zhencai, Wang Qianglin, Wu Xuqiang and Liu Yuge would be shot. She was pregnant with Guo Bingchang's child, and even if the Liu family knew about it, they would be helpless against her. After the child was born, she would sell the Guo family's things and hide abroad. There would be no one in this world who could shackle her anymore.
It was a pity for Old Guo. From childhood to adulthood, Old Guo was the only one who would protect her. Liu Yuyuan still could not forget that when she was six years old, she was locked out by her two cousins. Liu Xuan ignored her. Old Guo came back from outside in the middle of the night and saw her curled up on the ground. He got angry and called the two cousins and Liu Xuan regardless of the lateness of the night. He beat the two cousins severely and scolded Liu Xuan. The scolding was so severe that Liu Xuan no longer ignored her and the two cousins dared not bully her again.
Her treatment in the Guo family finally improved. At least she could get new styles and little skirts, and she could also eat the food that only her two cousins could eat before.
When she was fifteen, she knew the true identity of Zhang Zhencai and others, and she also knew their plan. She had thought about whether to tell Old Guo about this, but after careful consideration, she gave up because she wanted too many things. Telling Guo Bingchang would not maximize her interests. Instead, she could get everything she wanted by following Zhang Zhencai.
She followed Zhang Zhencai's plan and stayed with Old Guo. She really got a lot of things, but she only had the right to use them, not the right to control them. But so what, she was rich, and she believed that she would be richer in the future. She secretly followed Old Guo when she was sixteen. This year she is twenty years old. On the day she slept with Old Guo, she was thinking hard about how to have a child.
Five months ago, she finally succeeded. When Old Guo learned the news of her pregnancy, he was very happy. He gave her a lot of money and two houses.
This is actually a lot, but it is far from what Liu Yuyuan wants. She wants to be like her aunt Liu Xuan, who can buy whatever she wants and go wherever she wants. Instead of asking Guo Bingchang for everything like she does now.
Just like the money transferred to Zhou Yanhua a few days ago, it was the first time she had so much money since she was a child. Unfortunately, she had to transfer it away before it even warmed up. The Ferrari she drove in the evening was ordered by Old Guo for her. It was the first luxury car that belonged to her completely.
But it doesn't matter, she can have countless cars, houses and money in the future. Thinking of this, Liu Yuyuan became happy again. She took a taxi and returned to her other residence. As soon as she arrived, she opened a bottle of red wine. Two minutes later, she drank a glass of red wine. After putting down the glass, she received a call from the group director.
•••••
In the Public Security Bureau, Hang Jiabai and others were busy. After Lin Shuyue and reporter Shi finished eating, they returned to their respective units. As soon as Lin Shuyue arrived at the unit, she received a call from Ye Xueyu. On the phone, Ye Xueyu told Lin Shuyue the news she got from the chef Wang Qianglin.
He was the only criminal who remained unscathed in this battle.
"Wang Qianglin confessed to the crimes they committed in the past twenty years. In the past ten years, they have been roaming around and committing crimes, basically robbing people in remote areas deep in the mountains and old forests in order to fill their stomachs and practice their murder methods. We have issued a request for assistance in the investigation of the places they have been to, and I believe there will be results soon."
"The case in Hong Kong was their first major case. When they sneaked into Hong Kong, one of them found a job in a wealthy family in Hong Kong. Zhang Zhencai, Wang Qianglin and others did some odd jobs there. Soon they had the idea of robbery and murder, and they put it into action two months later. After the Hong Kong case was over, the companion who sneaked into the wealthy family was killed by Zhang Zhencai."
"Zhang Zhencai told Wang Qianglin and the others that the face of that companion was already known to the Hong Kong police, and that continuing to work with him would only put everyone in danger. After killing that companion, they took a cargo ship abroad and traveled for a year before entering the country from Southeast Asia."
"After returning to China, Zhang Zhencai found a decoy to reissue identity cards for them. Moreover, these were not fake ones, but those of real people. It was just that for various reasons, they sold their identities for a fee. Not only the registered address, but even fingerprints and other items were sold in a package. Zhang Zhencai and his men only provided a photo." Ye Xueyu has seen many decoys and has caught many of them, but when the fake IDs have been done to this extent, they are no longer fake IDs, but replacements.
Because of the replacement of identity information, the Guo family did not notice anything unusual when hiring Zhang Zhencai and others, and Zhou Yanhua and Wang Qianglin were deeply trusted by Liu Xuan's family.
What happened afterwards is easy to understand. Zhang Zhencai and his friends started a new life with this replaced identity. After living a carefree life for a while and spending all the money they robbed from the Hong Kong tycoons, Zhang Zhencai met Zhou Yanhua. He seemed to have a change of heart and asked about the child. Then the tycoon Guo Bingchang came into his sight.
But this time, when looking for undercover agents, no one was willing to go. Finally, Zhang Zhen said that he would go too, and that's how everyone was undercover this time.
Ye Xueyu said: "The five of them have discussed it. After completing this job, they will change their identities and go abroad to start a new life. But they cannot throw away the money on Liu Yuyuan. Therefore, Wang Qianglin and Zhou Yanhua, who pretended to be dead, will change their identities later and continue to return to Liu Yuyuan to monitor her."
Upon hearing this, Lin Shuyue could only say that Zhang Zhencai had a good idea and a good plan, but his daughter was also great, even more capable than him. If Liu Yuyuan had been a little more timid, his plan would have succeeded.
"According to Wang Qianglin's account, on the evening of the day of the action, Wang Qianglin put a large amount of sleeping pills in the dinner. After drugging the Guo family and another nanny, they moved them to the bathroom on the second floor to bleed them. After that, they dismembered the bodies and threw them everywhere. The blood was also drained into the ditch through the bathroom pipes. They did this for no other reason, they just liked the feeling of killing, bleeding and dismembering people. Throwing the body parts around and draining the blood was just Liu Yuge's personal hobby. It was already dark at that time, and Zhang Xuqiang didn't care about them."
"As for the two extra bodies, they were specially called in. One was Guo Bingchang's secretary, who was remembered by Zhang Zhencai because he had said rude things to him several times. The other was a supplier of the Guo family, who was also killed by Zhang Zhencai because he looked down on him."
"Ah Yu, do you think there is something wrong with Liu Yuyuan?" When Lin Shuyue asked this question, she was brewing a cup of instant coffee in the newspaper's tea room. This instant coffee was bought by the company's people. There are many flavors. Sometimes Lin Shuyue would come over to make a cup. It tasted good, but the most important thing was to refresh the mind.
Ye Xueyu glanced at Hang Jiabai who was looking at the files and said, "Our boss doesn't quite believe that she is completely innocent and is checking the files now."
On the surface, everything Liu Yuyuan said was in line with common sense and her character as someone who had been targeted by criminal gangs for more than ten years. What she said and did was also consistent with the personality she had shown in public over the years.
But if you look closely, you will find that she is a very contradictory person. Especially when she first learned about Zhou Yanhua's death, she acted too calmly, even with a hint of inexplicable ease, but soon she acted sad and upset.
According to her, she was being watched all year round, and Zhou Yanhua, her biological mother, was not close to her. The most she talked to her was to convey Zhang Zhencai's mission to her. Even so, she still acted so sad, which was obviously unreasonable.
Coupled with her various actions in the Guo family villa in the afternoon, this unreasonableness was magnified to the maximum. She started crying as soon as she entered the yard, crying until she fell to the ground and even fainted, but she was unwilling to go into the house before or after. Later, when asking about the financial affairs, Liu Yuyuan knew the amount of cash and jewelry of Liu Xuan and her two sisters-in-law, and even knew where the longevity locks of her two nephews were placed.
The fact that Ye Xueyu can be a criminal police officer represents her ability. She can think that there's something wrong during this period without Hang Jiabai's reminder. At this moment, Wu Dongyan and a colleague are already in place downstairs of Liu Yuyuan's house.
Lin Shuyue felt relieved when she knew that the police were also keeping a close eye on Liu Yuyuan.
After writing the report to be published tomorrow and sending it to Huang Qiang, Lin Shuyue called Lou Fengqin and then did not go back. She went to Xijiang Apartment opposite the newspaper office.
The apartment was fully equipped with everything from daily necessities to toiletries. Lin Shuyue took a shower and lay down on the bed, feeling so comfortable that she took a deep breath.
Before going to bed, she opened the good and evil discrimination system. This task was still not completed, but four of the five main criminals were caught and one was dead, so only Liu Yuyuan, the one who slipped through the net, was left out. Lin Shuyue thought that this task might only be truly completed when Liu Yuyuan was brought to justice.
So how to bring her to justice? Lin Shuyue sat on the bed, holding her laptop, thinking hard, and gradually, she came to a conclusion.
She fell asleep peacefully. The next morning, when Lin Shuyue had just woken up, she received a call from Lin Shuxing.
"Ah Yue, I haven't been feeling well lately. I've been nauseous and retching. I might be pregnant. I want to go to the hospital, but I'm a little scared to go alone. Can you come with me?"
After hearing this, Lin Shuyue did some calculations and found out that it had been quite a while since Lin Shuxing and Luo Zhengjun got married. For two healthy men and women to be together, pregnancy was perfectly normal.
Besides, Lou Fengqin had always been looking forward to having the next generation, and she herself liked children, so she smiled and said, "Then you wait for me at home, I'll be there soon."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Shuyue put Liu Yuyuan's matter aside and decided to go to Guangsheng Group in the afternoon to take a look and send Lin Shuxing to the hospital first.
When Lin Shuyue arrived at Xiasha Village, Lin Shuxing had already put on her going-out clothes and was waiting for her at the store door. Luo Zhengjun was chopping meat in the kitchen. When he saw Lin Shuyue coming, he came out immediately, still wearing a leather apron.
When he saw Lin Shuyue, he kept thanking her: "Ah Yue, please take good care of your sister. I really can't leave. I just received a lunch order for an office building the day before yesterday and it had to be delivered before 11:30. I signed a contract. I really didn't think too much at the time. Your sister was fine yesterday, but she vomited bile this morning."
Luo Zhengjun's face was full of worry, and as soon as he said that, Lin Shuyue guessed that Lin Shuxing had not told him that she might be pregnant.
Lin Shuyue looked at Lin Shuxing, who shook her head at her and said, "Alright, alright, we got it. Stop nagging and get to work. If it's too late, we can't do anything about it."
The fast food restaurant does not hire anyone. Everything from washing vegetables and dishes to cooking is done by Lin Shuxing and her husband. There is a lot of work to do in a day. Only on weekends will Lin Shuyang and others come to help. Sometimes, if it is really busy, Bai Pingping will come over for two days.
But most of the time, it was still the young couple who were busy. Lin Shuyue asked them to hire someone, but neither of them was willing to do so.
Luo Zhengjun smiled and said, "Okay, okay, Ah Yue, I'll trouble you to take care of your sister. I'll stew some pig's trotters for you later."
"Okay." Lin Shuyue smiled and went out with Lin Shuxing. Just as they reached the door, Lin Shuxing held the wall and retched. Luo Zhengjun hurriedly followed her out.
With a look of worry on his face, she patted Lin Shuxing's back and poured water for her. Lin Shuyue, her biological sister, just stood by and couldn't help, seeming particularly redundant.
When Lin Shuxing stopped vomiting and wanted to go to the hospital, Luo Zhengjun refused to go and insisted on going with her. He thought about it over and over again and became very worried.
Lin Shuyue looked at the young couple arguing again and sighed inwardly. It wasn't spring yet, and they were going to suffer some harm everywhere that was only meant for single people. It was okay at the newspaper office, but they couldn't escape it even when they returned home.
She made the decision: "Let's go together."
Lin Shuyue had already spoken, and Lin Shuxing had no choice. Luo Zhengjun happily closed the door and got into the car. Before leaving, he took a few bottles of water, and Lin Shuxing started drinking as soon as she got in the car.
Lin Shuxing explained to Lin Shuyue: "I heard that you need to hold your urine for B-ultrasound."
Luo Zhengjun wanted to speak, but Lin Shuxing was feeling uncomfortable. After hearing Lin Shuxing's words "Shut up", Luo Zhengjun dared not say a word, but stared at Lin Shuxing. As soon as she showed an uncomfortable expression, he would immediately move in sync, wishing he could suffer in Lin Shuxing's place.
Lin Shuyue wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, because for some reason, Lin Shuxing suddenly felt a nameless anger, which was now burning on Luo Zhengjun. If she laughed, wouldn't the anger burn on her?
Arriving at the hospital, Lin Shuxing made an appointment for the obstetrics and gynecology department. Luo Zhengjun ran around with the form. By now, he knew that Lin Shuxing was probably pregnant, and he would smile at Lin Shuxing foolishly from time to time.
Lin Shuxing's anger had subsided, and she smiled and called him a fool.
Lin Shuyue sat at the table and once again felt redundant.
Lin Shuyue sat on a stool at the entrance of the ultrasound room, hidden among a group of pregnant women with different bellies, her ears filled with the pregnant women talking about the changes they had experienced after pregnancy. Just as she was listening with great interest, she looked up and saw Liu Yuyuan, who was dressed brightly and beautifully, wearing sunglasses that covered half of her face. Next to her stood a girl in her twenties who had a similar figure and similar clothes.
She glanced to the side and probably didn't recognize Lin Shuyue, because Lin Shuyue put on a mask at the first moment.
Liu Yuyuan clutched a delicate handbag in her hand and said to the girl next to her in a bossy tone: "I've chosen a number for you, and I promise you more, not less. You also have to remember what you should and shouldn't say."
The young woman glanced at her, nodded, and walked into the obstetrician's office with her slightly bulging belly.
Liu Yuyuan sat down on the chair at the door of the doctor's office. Lin Shuyue saw clearly that the moment she sat down, a wrinkle appeared on her slightly bulging belly under her red skirt.
