Chapter 279 - The Director Is Going Crazy! (1/2)
Ai Wa had a bad feeling when she heard Shen Xinglan’s words, and she looked around with vigilance.
“Don’t worry. Even if you do not agree, you can leave safely.” Shen Xinglan looked up at her.
Seeing his expression, Ai Wa felt a little angry. She knew that this man had never taken them seriously.
“Mr. Shen, you can cut to the chase!” A Min said. “What do you want?”
Shen Xinglan glanced at him. “I want to know why you needed to marry my wife to Yu Kun.”
“Because I wanted you to marry A Xue!” Ai Wa immediately said, “If your wife married my son, you could marry my daughter contentedly.”
A Min nodded beside her, but Shen Xinglan did not believe a word of it.
“I will give you one more chance.” As soon as he raised his hand, the TV on the wall suddenly turned on.
Ai Wa screamed, “A Xue!”
On the screen, A Xue was hung in midair, and below her was the sea and the reef.
“Mr. Shen!” A Min stood up. “This is murder. It is illegal.”
Shen Xinglan shrugged his shoulders. “You have been in seclusion for too long. There are always people who can be free from the law. Don’t you believe me? Didn’t Bai Yongwei remind you?”
“Dad! Mom!” A Xue cried on the TV, “Save me!”
Ai Wa ran toward Shen Xinglan, but was stopped by Shen I.
“Let go of my daughter, or I will kill you!” She threatened him.
Shen Xinglan snorted. “It seems that you have not figured out the situation. I’m the one who can give orders here…” He raised his hand again, and A Xue screamed on the screen.
The hoist lifted her up into the sky, and the boom was almost vertical.
“Mr. Shen!” A Min also rushed over and was stopped as well.
He looked at Shen Xinglan with sincere eyes. “We have told you everything we know. We didn’t lie to you.”
Shen Xinglan’s face slowly cooled down. “It seems that in your heart, your daughter is less important than the treasure.”
“You… What are you talking about?” Ai Wa’s face turned pale. “What treasure? I don’t know!”
A Min couldn’t help saying, “What is it that you know? Who told…”
“Shut up!” Ai Wa interrupted him.
Shen Xinglan had lost his patience. He stood up and said, “Since you are not willing to cooperate, then say goodbye to your daughter.”
“Mr. Shen!” A Min stopped him, but Ai Wa grabbed his arm. “We don’t know anything. We don’t!”
A Min revealed a sad look. “That is my daughter…”
“Do you think I don’t want to save A Xue?” Ai Wa cried. “But he is torturing us!”
Shen Xinglan turned around calmly and said, “If I am not torturing you, you know it in your own heart. If you don’t tell me the secret of the treasure, I will find it myself. Please say goodbye to your daughter. I hope… she won’t hate you.”
As Shen Xinglan left, A Xue on the screen suddenly screamed.
“A Xue!” A Min closed his eyes in pain.
As A Xue screamed, she fell into the sea and was swallowed almost instantly.
“You are a murderer!” Ai Wa’s shouting was locked inside the room.
When Shen Xinglan entered the elevator, Shen I received a call from Shen II.
“Boss, A Xue is fine. She has been sent back to the hotel.”
Shen Xinglan didn’t care. He looked at his watch. “The next step is to see what she chooses.”
“What if…” Shen I hesitated, “if she regrets it…”
Shen Xinglan glanced at him. “Didn’t she already fall into the sea…”
“Understood!”
If A Xue repented and went back on what she said at the beginning, then everything that happened today would become true.
“Why don’t you tell him the truth?” In the private room, A Min looked at Ai Wa in pain. “Now, A Xue is dead…”
Ai Wa wiped her tears and stood up. “You are so stupid. Do you think he would let A Xue go if we told him the truth today? At that time, he may even kill us.”
“What should we do now?” A Min stumbled and walked over to the big screen. The picture was frozen on the moment that A Xue fell.
Ai Wa took out her mobile phone and took a picture of the screen. “We’ll call the police, we have the evidence. Hurry up!”
In the front of the police station, Deng Yue had left in vain, with the director’s words still hovering in her mind.
“Deng Yue, don’t come to me anymore. It’s useless. Go home and take care of your mother. I have already called your community and they will help you find a job again.”
“Why… why did this happen?”
She just wanted to catch bad guys. Those rich people knew the law and broke the law. Why could not she catch them? And why she was fired?
“I am right! I am not wrong.”
She kept repeating these words with her head down, until she suddenly ran into someone.
“Ouch!” Ai Wa almost fell. “Don’t you look at the road?”
Deng Yue tried to stabilize her body and looked up.
“Why are you here…”
Ai Wa looked at her. “Do you know us?”
