Chapter 118 - It was a scam



Chapter 118: 28. It was a scam

“Liangze wanted to tell you, but he didn’t say anything. Let me speak for him!”

Yu Shujun’s slow and deep voice came from the phone. It seemed to contain some sort of mystery.

The corner of He Yi’s eyes twitched, and she asked indifferently, “What is it?”

She instinctively felt that what Yu Shujun was going to say was not a good thing! What was this woman up to again?

“Good choice has been struggling with this matter for a very, very long time! That day, when you came to the Banquet, you coincidentally bumped into me and Liangze talking. You also heard a lot of things that you didn’t know before!” Yu Shujun’s tone was very calm as if she didn’t have any intention of showing off. But to He Yi, what she said was a blatant show-off.

“Oh!” He Yi was so angry that she laughed. “I know that your relationship with Liangze is unusual. I didn’t hear what he said to you! Other than what happened to big brother, what other things did he hide from me and tell you?”

Yu Shujun seemed surprised when she heard He Yi’s anger. “He Yi, you might have misunderstood what I meant...”

“I’m sorry, I still have something to take care of!” He Yi told her politely and indifferently, “You can talk about it when you have time! “Also, think about it. Since Liangze isn’t willing to tell me, do you still want to tell me?”

“Wait, don’t hang up!” Yu Shujun said sharply, “You’re in the Court now! When you see Chu Tianyi, you can tell him and ask him to find out who reported mayor Chu back then!”

He Yi’s body trembled, and she couldn’t help but look at Chu Tianyi who was standing in front of him. “What do you mean? Could it be that someone else reported Mayor Chu back then!”

Chu Tianyi was also stunned when he heard this, and he couldn’t help but stare at her.

“Sigh!” Yu Shujun sighed softly, she said in a troubled manner, “Liangze found out long ago, but he has been hesitating whether to tell you or not! He told me that he had no choice but to tell Chu Tianyi about the investigation of Mayor Chu. I don’t know if it’s right or wrong! After all, Chu Tianyi won’t hate you anymore! He was always afraid that you and Chu Tianyi would rekindle the old relationship!”

“Boom!” He Yi’s brain seemed to have been hit by a heavy object. Suddenly, she seemed to understand everything!

......

That day, Yi Liangze had announced to Chu Tianyi the information about investigating Mayor Chu. He had not discussed it with her beforehand. Although she had asked him the reason, he had said that he had not had the chance to say it. Coincidentally, Wan Wan’s matter had become a catalyst, which was why he had announced it.

Now that she thought about it, the information had not just been discovered. Perhaps he had prepared for it long ago. Even when Yi Liangze found out that Wan Wan was his flesh and blood, he had already investigated Chu Tianyi’s eight generations of ancestors thoroughly.

When the information was taken out, it had probably been hidden in the bottom of the box for a long time. To let Chu Tianyi understand how much he owed the He family, and to allow Wan Wan and Yi Liangze to recognize each other as father and daughter, the information was finally released.

The results of the investigation were far more than that! Not only did mayor Chu take bribes, keep mistresses, and have illegitimate children... This series of dirty acts made Chu Tianyi break down, and He Hanlin had never reported him at all.

Think about it, He Hanlin was just a businessman, and he had no direct conflict of interest with Mayor Chu, so why would he take the risk to report him? He Yi thought of her father’s gentleness and tactfulness. He would never take the initiative to provoke anyone.

It turned out that someone was framing him! Not only did he report Mayor Chu, but he also blamed He Hanlin to prevent the Chu family from taking revenge.

All of this had been investigated long ago. But Yi Liangze kept it a secret. He was afraid that if he removed the last grudge between Chu Tianyi and He Yi, the two of them might rekindle their old relationship.

“Liangze kept asking me if he should tell you! I feel sorry for him!” Yu Shujun’s voice drifted over, reminding He Yi of the paranoia and cruelty of human nature. “I think we should help him remove this knot in his heart and stop him from blaming himself! He Yi, get Chu Tianyi to investigate this matter! If he’s willing to investigate, he will be able to find out. Then, tell Liangze that Chu Tianyi has found out everything! From now on, he can let go of this psychological burden and no longer have to feel guilty!”

He Yi bit her lip and remained silent for a long time before replying indifferently. “Alright.”

No matter what Yu Shujun’s intentions were, what she said should be the truth! He Yi did not feel good because these things were not told to her by Yi Liangze but through another woman’s mouth.

Sure enough, Yu Shujun held an extraordinary position in Yi Liangze’s heart. Not only did he trust her with Yi Jiahao’s matters, but she also knew about the privacy of the elders.

He Yi finally realized that she did not hold a unique position in Yi Liangze’s heart, and Yu Shujun’s position was higher than she had imagined. She was also trusted by Yi Liangze!

After hanging up the phone, He Yi raised her head and was shocked.

She did not know when, but the man who seemed to be thousands of miles away from her had stuck close to her, almost breathing into her. She raised her head and saw his magnified handsome face was just inches away from her.

At this moment, Chu Tianyi looked even more agitated than she was. “Your father didn’t report it!”

Back then, Mayor Chu’s accident had nothing to do with the He family! In other words, he had wronged the He family and He Hanlin. All these years, he had hated the wrong person!

What was even more ridiculous was that because of this, he had pushed away the woman he loved all his life, and he had been badly hurt!

After so many years, he finally realized that everything was a scam and a misunderstanding!

At this moment, no words could describe what Chu Tianyi was feeling. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry? Love and hate mixed together? Regret? Or even pain!

“I don’t know either!” He Yi’s heart was a mess. But this had nothing to do with the report back then. Instead, she was thinking about Yi Liangze’s actions. “I heard that’s the case, but I wasn’t the one who investigated it! How about this, you can go and investigate it when you have time. If you still want to avenge your father, right?”

With that, He Yi was no longer in the mood to talk to Chu Tianyi about Wan Wan’s problem. She felt that she had more important things to solve — to have a good talk with Yi Liangze!

Just as she took a step forward, her wrist was grabbed by Chu Tianyi, which surprised her. “What are you doing?”

“He Yi, I think we should have a good talk!” Chu Tianyi was a little emotional. He held her tightly as if he was afraid that she would disappear without a trace if he let go. “If I wronged your father...”

“Haven’t you already been sentenced to imprisonment outside the prison?” He Yi didn’t want to waste any more time with him. She wasn’t interested at all. “Since you’ve been punished, let’s end it here!”

“No!” Chu Tianyi cried out, “This is all a misunderstanding! He Yi, I wronged you, wronged you! I... I’m sorry!”

He Yi looked at Chu Tianyi again. This was his apology to her again! In her memory, this cold and arrogant man always had an indifferent face, without any unnecessary emotions or expressions. In the past, she thought he was cool, but later she realized that he was only like this because he hated her. Now, she was already used to Yi Liangze’s warmth and passion, and she felt even more indifferent to him.

However, just as she was completely indifferent towards him, he broke his usual indifference and revealed his true feelings towards her for the first time. However, she did not care at all, and she did not feel anything at all.

No matter how excited Chu Tianyi was, He Yi was still as cold as ever. “It’s all in the past, what’s the point of talking about this anymore? I only hope that from now on, you won’t appear in front of me again, and don’t let Wan Wan harbor any unrealistic fantasies about you!”

At the mention of Wan Wan, Chu Tianyi seemed to have his attention diverted. His excitement slowly subsided, and he finally slowly let go of He Yi. Then, he tightened his fist.

“That’s all for now! When you’re free, you can check if it’s true or not!” He Yi’s mood was extremely chaotic. She perfunctorily instructed him, “I also heard it from others. Whether it’s true or not is unknown. Go and find out the truth yourself!”

After saying that, she turned around and walked toward the parking lot.

Chu Tianyi just watched He Yi leave without looking back. There was not even the slightest bit of separation or reluctance. He knew that she no longer had any place for him in her heart. Even if he tried his best to make up for it, putting down his pride and face, it was all useless. She would never look at him again, never again!

Only Wan Wan, who was as passionate and cute as she was in the past, was deeply attached to him.

He still remembered that when they first met, she was only nine years old, and she was as beautiful as a princess in a fairy tale. She sat in front of the piano and played a smooth tune. Her clear eyes were as clear as a spring, and her smile was as warm as the morning sun.

As He Yi’s back slowly disappeared, the beautiful memories in his memory also slowly blurred. He knew that those once beautiful things would never reappear, and what was lost would forever be lost.

Only Wan Wan’s beautiful and cute little face became clearer and clearer in his mind, just like He Yi in the past.

His and slightly clenched, as if wanting to grab something, but he only grasped the air of nothingness. It was not until the bailiff reminded him that he remembered that he was going back to Xingyue bay.

His cold eyes were tinged with warmth and anticipation. He knew that Wan Wan would be waiting for him there!

*

On the way back, He Yi was distraught. She thought about calling Yi Liangze a few times and put down her phone. She edited the message a few times and deleted it again. Finally, she placed her finger between her eyebrows and fell into deep thought.

Although she and Yi Liangze had two children, they had not been together for long. It had only been half a year.

They married so quickly, regardless of whether it was because of the children. They did not know each other very well. Especially him, she knew too little about his past and psychology!

He always showed a strong sexual desire for her, which made her mistakenly think that there was no animosity between them. Most of the communication between him and her was physical, and the real spiritual communication was mostly with Yu Shujun.

He dared to reveal his most authentic side in front of Yu Shujun, such as smoking; he could speak freely in front of Yu Shujun without any scruples, and he didn’t even care about revealing his vulnerable and helpless side (the powerlessness of Yi Jiahao’s disappearance), but He Yi was always in front of him, like a god.

What exactly went wrong? He Yi thought seriously, but she still couldn’t find a satisfactory answer.

Just as He Yi was struggling, the car arrived at Fu Xing. Because she was upset, He Yi didn’t notice so many people gathered in the factory yard when she got out of the car.

“You must be He Yi ” A tall and strong middle-aged woman walked over aggressively, looking like she was here to pick a fight with He Yi.

He Yi looked at the woman carefully. A very strong and fierce woman seemed to have a feud with her. Her eyes and expression were full of irreconcilable hatred. She steadied her mind and asked, “May I know who you are?”

“I am Zhuo Hongzhao’s wife!” The woman shouted Zhuo Hongzhao’s wife with endless pride, but at the same time, with a fierce warning.

“Well,” He Yi couldn’t help but frown. She didn’t expect Zhuo Hongzhao’s wife to be like this. But out of politeness, she still said reluctantly, “So it’s sister-in-law. What do you want from me?”

“Humph, of course!” The woman put her hands on her hips, ready to have a big fight with He Yi. “I just came to ask you why my man’s invention patent should be shared with you! That’s because my man spends all his time in the lab, and I can’t even see him at all. After working for so long, he finally made a fortune with his invention patent, and you still have the cheek to eat cake with chopsticks! Please you are shameless!”

He Yi’s face darkened, and she was thinking about how to deal with this woman.

“Hey, be more polite!” Ji Xueshan immediately showed her ruddy fist. “Open your eyes and see Clearly, is this where you behave atrociously?”

“Where did you come from, You little Bitch!” The woman was still maintaining a bit of rationality towards He Yi (her husband’s immediate superior), but when she saw that the woman beside He Yi dared to yell at her, she instantly lost her temper. “Do you even have the right to speak here? Do you still dare to show your fist to me? I will skin you alive!”

As she spoke, the woman made her move. She meant what she said and directly started to rip off Ji Xueshan’s clothes.

He Yi took a few steps back and looked coldly at the woman.

Without waiting for the middle-aged woman’s hand to touch the clothes, Ji Xueshan nimbly dodged and then conveniently kicked the woman’s fat, millstone-like buttocks.

“Ah!” The woman was kicked in the buttocks. She did not expect that this beautiful flower-like girl would have such great strength. She directly staggered forward and almost bit her mouth with both hands.

Ji Xueshan had saved some face because she was Zhuo Hongzhao’s wife. Otherwise, this kick would have made her bite her lips.

“Oh my God, little prodigal, how dare you to hit me!? The middle-aged woman went crazy and turned around to pounce on Ji Xueshan again. This time, she was using all her strength. She gritted her teeth as if she wanted to tear Ji Xueshan apart.

Ji Xueshan calmly dodged and then used her gaze to ask He Yi if she should make a move.

He Yi urged, “Sister-in-law, can you calm down?”

More and more people were watching. When everyone heard that Zhuo Hongzhao’s wife had come to cause a ruckus, they were all a little surprised, and for a moment, they were all discussing animatedly.

Seeing that she couldn’t beat Ji Xueshan, and didn’t dare to make a move on He Yi (the other party was arrogant without being angry, and seemed to be more intimidating than the powerful Ji Xueshan), the middle-aged woman slapped her thigh, then, she started to wail at the top of her lungs. “Everyone, come and see! President, He seduced my husband and pestered him to stay in the laboratory every night without going home! He talked about doing experiments. Who knew that they would be doing alone together during experiments? What the hell! ! It was not easy for her to come up with an invention, but this greedy woman wanted to take away half of the patent rights. What right does she have? That was my husband’s invention. If he wants to give it away, I’ll give it away. Who does she think she is...”

He Yi ordered Ji Xueshan, “Make her shut up first! I’ll give Zhuo Hongzhao a call!”

In the past two days, Zhuo Hongzhao had taken a leave of absence. Ever since Zhuo Hongzhao’s employment, he had always treated the factory as his home. Not to mention taking a leave of absence, it would be a miracle if he did not work overtime every day. Although He Yi found it strange that he suddenly took a leave of absence, she did not ask further. She felt that the experiment had succeeded. Zhuo Hongzhao, who had worked so hard for so long, naturally had to rest for two days.

But now, it seemed that things were not as simple as she thought.

Ji Xueshan quickly restrained the tall and burly woman and covered her mouth, not letting her speak any more.

Soon, the security guards also came over to help. They clamped the middle-aged woman in all directions, waiting for He Yi’s punishment.

“... Hello, He.” Zhuo Hongzhao finally picked up the phone, but his voice sounded very listless. “What’s the matter?”

Hearing Zhuo Hongzhao’s completely uninformed voice, He Yi knew that he was not a person who was good at hiding his true emotions. It seemed that he did not know that his wife came to the factory to make trouble! “I have something to ask you.”

At that moment, He Yi roughly recounted the incident of Zhuo Hongzhao’s wife running to the factory to cause a ruckus. Finally, she said, “Could we sit down and talk calmly about any problems? Not to stand in the factory yard and shout. She’s shouting and scolding. She started fighting. I asked Xueshan to restrain her, but she’s still very emotional. I hope that you can quickly come over and deal with it. Otherwise, if she continues to cause a ruckus like this, I’m going to call the police to deal with it!”

When Zhuo Hongzhao heard this, he immediately became anxious. “What, what, this shameless woman caused a scene in the factory? I... I want to strangle her to death!”

Hearing Zhuo Hongzhao gnashing his teeth in anger, He Yi knew that he must have caused quite a scene with his wife these two days. She sighed lightly and said, “Hurry up and come over!”

*

Zhuo Hongzhao quickly rushed over. He went up and reprimanded his wife. “Are you sick! You didn’t make enough trouble at home and then came here to cause a scene. My face has been completely thrown away by you...”

When Ji Xueshan saw that Zhuo Hongzhao had come, she thought that the problem had been solved. She let go of the shrew and handed her over to Zhuo Hongzhao to handle.

Who knew that after the middle-aged woman gained her hands and feet, the first thing she wanted to do was to give Zhuo Hongzhao four or five slaps on the face.

“Pa! Pa! Pa ! Pa! Pa!...” Zhuo Hongzhao’s glasses disappeared without a trace. He was completely stunned by the beating and seemed to have lost his sense of direction.

He Yi was shocked. She quickly shouted to Ji Xueshan, “Stop this shrew!”

“Heartless! Traitor! I’ll beat you to death, you heartless man! You were drugged by the little fairy, and even gave up half of your invention’s patent. Why don’t you die?” The middle-aged woman was still not giving up after being pulled by Ji Xueshan, she raised her leg to kick Zhuo Hongzhao again. “If you don’t get your patent back today, I’ll skin you alive!”

Zhuo Hongzhao squatted down and searched around for his glasses.

He Yi walked over to help him pick them up and handed them to him. “Factory manager Zhuo, how do you think this matter should be handled?”

Zhuo Hongzhao put on his glasses but lowered his head. He didn’t have the face to look at He Yi at all. “I’m sorry, He...”

“I don’t need your apology now!” He Yi couldn’t help but flare up. “I need you to come up with a solution to the problem!”

If it weren’t for Zhuo Hongzhao’s face, she would have called the police long ago. How could she let this shrew bounce around in the factory for so long with a smile on her face?

“I, I, I...” Zhuo Hongzhao was extremely embarrassed. How could he have any way to deal with this shrew? In the past two days, he had barely slept or eaten. His house had been smashed to pieces. He was almost going crazy.

He Yi couldn’t help but feel disappointed when she saw his expression. It was unrealistic to expect this man to clean up the mess. Even though he was the one who caused the mess.

After a long time, she decided coldly, “Call the police! Let her stay in the police station for a few days to calm her mind!”

Zhuo Hongzhao was shocked and was about to refuse.

“If you can get her out now and don’t affect the work order in the factory, I would not call the police!” He Yi’s gaze and tone became stern.

Zhuo Hongzhao immediately lowered his head and mumbled, “CEO He... Just wait and see!”

*

The police car arrived and finally dragged the woman who was scolding endlessly away.

Silence returned to the factory and the workers returned to work. He Yi secretly let out a breath. Only then did she have the time and energy to interrogate Zhuo Hongzhao. “Factory manager Zhuo, please come to my office!”

Seeing He Yi turn around and walk away, Zhuo Hongzhao awkwardly adjusted his glasses.

Ji Xueshan folded her arms and sighed at him. “God, I don’t want you to live with such a hag all day and be tortured by her!”

Zhuo Hongzhao’s face was dark, but traces of swelling could still be seen on his cheeks. There was a bruise at the corner of his eye, and his chin was also swollen. What was even more embarrassing was that the spectacles’ legs were still glued with tape.

“Oh my God!” Ji Xueshan seemed to have discovered a new continent. “Factory manager Zhuo, didn’t you just invent a new patent and earn a lot of money daily? How come you can’t even afford to wear good spectacles?”

“This...” Zhuo Hongzhao was incomparably embarrassed and almost cried. “All the spectacles in the house were crushed by that woman. This is the last one that can be worn! To protect its other leg from being crushed, I even took a few slaps!”

“...” Ji Xueshan could no longer speak. She could only look at Zhuo Hongzhao with sympathy and amusement. All of a sudden, she somewhat understood why every time Fang Yu saw Wen Siling, he would shiver, and why Wei Jiameng, who was divorced and had a child with her, had a special fondness for dreams.

Marrying a shrew would indeed make a man’s life extremely miserable!

Watching Zhuo Hongzhao enter the office building, Ji Xueshan prepared to go to the cafeteria to get some food. Just as she turned around, she saw Wen Yongxiang appear out of nowhere and silently stand behind her.

“Awesome!” Wen Yongxiang gave her a thumbs up, full of admiration and fondness. “Decisive and ruthless, you do things without hesitation! What should I do? I seem to like you more and more!”
