Chapter 377
Rong Shu was exasperated, “I thought that it was because she found her conscience, but it turns out that she didn’t hide because she knew she couldn’t.”
Fu Jingting looked at her, “This person, what do you want to do with her?”
“No rush first, I need to know, why did she attack me?” Rongshu pinched her palms, her small face was cold to the core.
Fu Jingting’s eyes suddenly narrowed, “She didn’t give an explanation.”
“No explanation?” Rongshu was surprised.
Fu Jingting rubbed his fingers for a moment, his murderous intent surging around him, “Yes, no matter how much the police interrogated her, she didn’t say anything.”
Rongshu gritted her teeth, “Then she’s still very tough.”
“Lu Qi has seen her, and from what Lu Qi said, it seems that something is holding her back, that’s why she won’t give an explanation.” Fu Jingting’s thin lips pursed into a straight line.
Although he hadn’t gone to the police station to see that person, a*sistant Zhang had.
a*sistant Zhang said that the police had even used a strong light and that woman hadn’t even given an explanation, clearly not looking like a strong person, just an ordinary person, even a little weak in character, but that woman, just always insisted on not revealing anything.
So if there wasn’t something for her to worry about, her willpower, wouldn’t be so strong.
“That woman, what was her name?” Rongshu took a deep breath and barely managed to calm down.
Fu Jingting looked at her, “Chen Xiuzhi.”
An extremely rustic and common name.
“Chen Xiuzhi?” Rongshu’s face was filled with confusion, obviously not recognising or even having heard of it.
So why would someone who had no grievances or grudges do this to her?
Was she instructed by someone, or ……
For a while, Rong Shu’s heart was filled with many doubts.
“I want to go to the police station tomorrow to see that woman and ask her myself.” Rong Shu said with a sullen face.
She was not willing to ask her in person!
Fu Jingting originally agreed somewhat, after all, she had not yet recovered from her injuries.
But looking at the determination on her face, he didn’t stop her in the end.
Dong Hua Jing Du, Gu family.
Gu Man’er had only just found out that Chen Xiuzhi had been taken away, and was so nervous that she didn’t even eat a few bites of dinner, so she went back to her room on the pretext of not feeling well.
She sat on the edge of the bed, breathing heavily and sharply, and could not hide the unease in her eyes and face.
She was scared now, scared that Chen Xiuzhi would give her up.
Although she had made a deal with Chen Xiuzhi and got her to promise to take on the police investigation for her, and Chen Xiuzhi had repeatedly promised not to give her up, who could guarantee whether she would or not?
So from the afternoon onwards, she had been on tenterhooks and had been distracted by accompanying her mother shopping. It was only when she saw on the news just now at dinner that Chen Xiuzhi had been arrested that she had completely panicked, and had been worried that the police would suddenly come to her door and take her away as the real killer.
Yes, it was she, not Chen Xiuzhi, who had really done it to Rong Shu.
The day before she struck at Rong Shu, she happened to meet Chen Xiuzhi, and after knowing that Chen Xiuzhi needed money badly to save her son, she took the initiative to strike a deal with Chen Xiuzhi, asking her to make a deal with her, that she would pay for Chen Xiuzhi’s son’s treatment, and Chen Xiuzhi, to take the blame for her.
She then came up with a plan to get Chen Xiuzhi to buy a set of men’s clothes, bring them to the department store, go to the department store’s toilets at 5pm and swap clothes with her. She would wear Chen Xiuzhi’s clothes and go to Repulse Bay to destroy Rong Shu’s red mole, while Chen Xiuzhi, posing as her, would take a taxi back to the city village and wait for her, and when she had destroyed Rong Shu’s red mole, she would go to the city village and swap back with Chen Xiuzhi.
After she changed back into her own clothes and returned to Gu’s house, she broke the stick that attacked Rong Shu and wrapped it up again in some old clothes and put it in a black rubbish bag to go and throw it away.
The reason she would bring it back and throw it away was because she was afraid that the police would find it in Repulse Bay or in the city village, after all, there might be fingerprints on it that she hadn’t gotten rid of, and once they were found, the plan would be useless.
Secondly, the reason why she did not let Chen Xiuzhi do it to Rong Shu, but chose to do it herself, was also because Chen Xiuzhi was too timid, even smaller than her, and when she heard that she had to hurt someone, she refused to do it, so she had no choice but to do it herself.
Although she was not a good person and her city was deep, but it was the first time she really hurt someone, so when she did it to Rong Shu at that time, she was also panicked and scared, but for the sake of her future, she had to grit her teeth even though she was panicked and scared to do it, and she did not expect that after she did it, she was not afraid instead, she was only afraid that she would be found out and caught.
But the news said that Chen Xiuzhi was arrested at around 4pm, and now several hours have pa*sed and the police are not looking for her, so it seems that Chen Xiuzhi should not have confessed to her.
With this in mind, Gu Man’er’s uneasy and frightened heart calmed down a little.
She got up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looked at the night sky outside, and murmured softly, “Miss Rong, you also don’t blame me, I am also for my future, since you and Mr. Cheng brought me to this paradise and inspired the greed inside me, then you have to be responsible, so if you want to blame, blame yourself, why Gu Man’er ……”
……
The following day, at nine in the morning.
Rongshu asked Lu Qi to give herself a morning off, ready to go over to the police station and take a look at that Chen Xiuzhi.
Lu Qi could not resist her, so he had to agree and find a wheelchair to accompany her there.
Just as she reached the car park, Zhang’s a*sistant came over pushing Fu Jingting.
When Lu Qi saw this, he crossed his arms, “What, you want to go too?”
Fu Jingting did not deny it, “Can’t I? I have to take credit for catching the person, so I should go too.”
Lu Qi bristled, “If it wasn’t for that, I would have said anything to stop you.”
“Alright Ah Qi, stop it, let’s go.” Rongshu couldn’t see, so she could only fumble around and touch Lu Qi, patting his hand and urging with a headache “Don’t forget, we only have one morning.”
“I’m sorry baby, you know, when I see Fu Jingting I want to hurt him a bit, I’ll take you to the car.” Lu Qi said, taking out his car keys and opening the door.
Next to him, a*sistant Zhang coughed against his lips, suppressing his laughter, and said to Fu Jingting, “Mr. Fu, let’s get in the car too.”
Fu Jingting gave a hint, but although he agreed, he did not take any action and kept looking at Rong Shu.
It was only when Rong Shu got into the car with the help of Lu Qi that she gestured to a*sistant Zhang to push herself to the car.
The two cars arrived at the police station one after the other, almost ten seconds apart.
Lu Qi pushed Rongshu inside.
The police station had already received a call from Fu Jingting and knew they were coming, so they didn’t say anything and took them straight to Chen Xiuzhi.
Chen Xiuzhi had been locked up in the interrogation room, and the police were prepared to hold her for twenty-four hours, giving her no food and only water, no sleep, and strong light, in order to oppress her spirit and make her give an honest account.
But now that more than ten hours had pa*sed, Chen Xiuzhi’s mental state was clearly depressed, yet she still refused to let go, which gave the police a big headache.
After all, it was rare for them to come across such a tough-talking person, as only those who had committed the most heinous crimes would be so tough-talking, as too many people were involved.
But this Chen Xiuzhi, who was just an ordinary citizen and had committed a minor crime, was so tough-talking that it really made people helpless.
“You are Chen Xiuzhi!” Rongshu was pushed into the interrogation room by Lu Qi, who had already whispered to her that Chen Xiuzhi was across from her.
Chapter 378
So even though she couldn’t see, she accurately landed her ‘gaze’ on Chen Xiuzhi’s face.
Chen Xiuzhi was exhausted by now, her head so dizzy and aching that it was about to explode.
She slumped on the interrogation table, struggling to lift her eyelids to look at the four men across from her.
The three men were not men she knew, but the woman in the wheelchair, the one who asked her if she was Chen Xiuzhi, she knew.
To be precise, she had seen her before, in the picture the man had given her.
Chen Xiuzhi’s voice was breathless as she responded, “I know what you’re doing here, but you can die, I’m not going to say anything.”
If she said it, that person would definitely not save her son.
Her son was the only family she had left, and she didn’t want him to be left with no money to save him, so she had to save him.
Although her son did not even know that she existed as his mother.
When Rongshu heard Chen Xiuzhi’s words, her eyebrows furrowed into a frown.
She hadn’t even asked, and this person said she wouldn’t tell, this feeling, it was really unpleasant.
Rong Shu squeezed the armrest of her wheelchair, slightly suppressing some of the fire in her heart before she spoke again, “Are you sure you won’t say anything, you have to know that as long as you do, your crime will be lessened a bit, if you don’t say anything, the crime will be aggravated.”
“I know, it doesn’t matter, no matter what, I won’t say anything anyway.” Chen Xiuzhi gave up and laughed, a bitter and tired smile.
The anger that Rongshu had just suppressed was now attacking her again, and her head was starting to get uncomfortable.
Fu Jingting was the first to notice that something was wrong with her, so he put his hand on her shoulder and gently squeezed it, saying in a concerned tone, “Okay, take it easy for now, take a deep breath and regulate your emotions.”
Rongshu also knew what would happen if she didn’t calm down, and couldn’t care less about him touching her, so she closed her eyes and did as she was told and took a deep breath.
Lu Qi glared at Fu Jingting’s hand on Rong Shu’s shoulder, “Hey, surnamed Fu, hurry up and take your paws off baby’s shoulder, you’re taking advantage.”
With that, he was about to step forward and take Fu Jingting’s hand away himself.
However, Fu Jingting didn’t give him a chance and took his hand away as soon as it reached out to him.
Lu Qi lunged and almost fell over.
a*sistant Zhang caught him in time and asked with a smile, “Mr. Lu, is everything alright?”
“Do you care if I’m alright?” Lu Qi grunted and pushed a*sistant Zhang away to stand back beside Rong Shu.
a*sistant Zhang looked at him and shook his head mindlessly.
This Mr. Lu was really like a capricious child, biting whoever he caught.
Fu Jingting ignored what had happened between a*sistant Zhang and Lu Qi, he narrowed his eyes and gazed at Chen Xiuzhi, “Are you sure you won’t say anything?”
Chen Xiuzhi simply buried her head and did not say anything, her attitude was already there, she would not say anything.
The corners of Fu Jingting’s lips hooked up coolly, “It’s fine if you don’t say anything, then your family will have to ……”
“What do you want?” Chen Xiuzhi could no longer be calm, and hurriedly raised her head, her ordinary face written with panic.
Even Rong Shu and Lu Qi were surprised as they looked at Fu Jingting.
How could they have not expected that Fu Jingting would actually use Chen Xiuzhi’s family to threaten Chen Xiuzhi?
Although there was some lack of desire for morality, one had to admit that this method was the most effective.
Moreover, looking at Chen Xiuzhi’s appearance, it seemed that she was starting to get scared.
“What do I want, don’t you already have the answer in your heart, you better behave and tell me everything, if you don’t, I’ll take your family.” Fu Jingting’s eyes narrowed and his voice was as cold as an ice cellar, emotionless.
Chen Xiuzhi shivered and looked at him like he was the devil.
Fu Jingting was satisfied with this look from her, lowering his eyes and asking morosely, “Say it, why did you attack Rong Shu.”
Chen Xiuzhi’s mouth opened for a long time before she spat out hoarsely, “Because …… her existence would threaten a person.”
“Bullsh*t!” Lu Qi directly exploded and lined up a slap on the table, “Threaten a person? Threaten who ah? Everyone is unique, baby is not some devil, you tell me who she can threaten!”
Fu Jingting and Rong Shu also felt disgusted by Chen Xiuzhi’s remark.
Rong Shu, in particular, had waves of shock rising in her heart.
Sure enough, Lin Tianchen had guessed correctly that the red mole on her wrist really made people feel threatened.
“I can’t talk about it.” Chen Xiuzhi shook her head and returned Lu Qi’s question.
Fu Jingting’s eyebrows knitted up in dissatisfaction and he was about to speak when his phone rang.
He took it out and glanced at it, seeing the caller ID, his eyes sank, then looked up at Rong Shu, “I’m going out to take a call.”
Rong Shu nodded her head.
a*sistant Zhang pushed Fu Jingting out.
Lu Qi closed the door of the interrogation room behind him and returned, staring at Chen Xiuzhi angrily, “You can’t talk? Have you forgotten what Fu Jingting just said, give an honest account, if not, beware of your family!”
Chen Xiuzhi’s body cowered for a moment, and she replied coyly, “I’m sorry, I really can’t tell you, I can tell you what you want to know, but this person, I really can’t reveal, please, don’t ask me this.”
Tears streamed down her face.
Even though the demon gentleman had threatened her with her family so that she still couldn’t give up the man.
Her son, who was still waiting for his operation.
And, she was also betting that the men wouldn’t be able to find out about her son, because her son, who had been stolen from her since birth and she had only found some time ago, hadn’t even bothered to identify him, because she didn’t dare.
Now she is alone, and no one knows that she has a son.
So these people, with a 50-50 chance of not finding out about her son, then this threat, naturally, would not work on her.
But if she told them who that person was, then her son would really be finished, so she couldn’t tell them.
Because if she did, her son would be hopeless, and if she didn’t, her son would still have half a chance of being saved, and anyone would know how to choose.
“Don’t ask you that?” Lu Qi laughed in anger, grabbed Chen Xiuzhi’s collar and lifted the person up, “What kind of answer is that, huh?”
Chen Xiuzhi closed her eyes and whimpered.
Rongshu pinched the bridge of her nose, a little weary, “Alright Ah Qi, put her down.”
“Baby ……,” Lu Qi was a little reluctant.
Rong Shu repeated again, “Put her down, this is a police station, do you want to be taken away by the officers and their force?”
“……” Lu Qi stopped talking and threw the person back into the chair.
Rong Shu looked at Chen Xiuzhi who was slumped in the chair, as if she had lost her soul, and spoke in a cold voice, “Fine, I won’t ask you who that person is, I’m asking you now, did that person instruct you to attack me, or was it your own idea?”
“It was my own.” Chen Xiuzhi nodded her chest repeatedly, “I did it to you myself, I stumbled upon the red mole on your wrist and knew that your existence would threaten that person, and that person is the most important person to me, that’s why I decided to do it to you.”
“Is that so?” Rongshu pursed her red lips, then beckoned towards Lu Qi.
Lu Qi leaned down, “Baby, what’s wrong?”
“You help me see if he’s lying.” Rong Shu lowered her voice and ordered.
Lu Qi lowered his head and then stared at Chen Xiuzhi.
After looking at her for a while, Lu Qi said, “She seems to be telling the truth, I can’t see that she is lying.”
Rongshu squeezed her palms.
In that case, this Chen Xiuzhi was the one who planned all this, and no one else was involved?
“One last question.” Rongshu took a breath, “What is the secret of the red mole on my wrist? Why would it pose a threat to the most important person to you? And what kind of threat!”
