Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife - Chapter 555
Chapter 555: I Like How You Scare People
In the end, Gu Ziling waited for news all day at home without any contact from Mrs. Hu.
“She promised to help, but now she doesn’t even answer my call. That useless old woman!”
Hu Ran overheard Gu Ziling from behind. She couldn’t help asking, “Which old woman?”
Gu Ziling turned to Hu Ran and glared at her. “Doesn’t your family teach you not to eavesdrop?”
“Since you said that I’m rude, I will show you what exactly ‘rude’ looks like!” Having said that, Hu Ran grabbed Gu Ziling’s phone from her hand. She wanted to verify her guess.
She quickly scanned through the call log and saw the phone number Gu Ziling called the most.
And then, she took out her phone and compared the number with the one in her phone.
“Hu Ran!”
“So, the old woman you have been waiting for is my stepmother, right?” Hu Ran laughed. “No wonder you know about my allergy to honey. Have you been colluding with that woman? Perhaps you haven’t learned about this. She is in hot water now. The paparazzo arrested by the police knows a lot of her secrets. She is waiting at the entrance of the police station. How would she have the time to respond to you? As for the dirty ideas in your mind, we both know it clearly even if none of us say it out loud. But what I can tell you seriously is that you will not succeed.”
Then, Hu Ran threw Gu Ziling’s phone back to her.
“And there’s one more thing I really want to advise you on. You will meet your doom if you do too much evil deeds.”
Gu Ziling was startled by Hu Ran’s words.
No wonder that woman could not be contacted. She couldn’t even protect herself now.
So, she could not count on Hu Ran’s stepmother anymore. She had to think of a way herself. But what she did not know was that the eldest young master of the Tiffany member had already discussed the matter with Sheng Bowen. He had decided to take over Tiffany & Co. After all, it’s part of the family business. Although his brother was useless, he did not want to lose his roots.
As for the collaboration with Huang Yao, he had agreed to carry it on. He would use his money to fill the shortfall, but he would not accept them withdrawing their investment. Moreover, he added a condition, and that was, the agreement would only be counted when Sheng Bowen was the CEO of Huang Yao.
However, Sheng Bowen had not disclosed this information to anyone.
At night, when he reached home, Grandpa Sheng was rather surprised to see him home in time for dinner. So he asked, “Aren’t you going to meet the representative of Tiffany & Co.?”
“Grandpa, he already left,” Sheng Bowen told Grandpa Sheng. “He actually arrived this morning. We talked the matter over and had lunch together. I’ve just sent him off. I’ll send you the contract later.”
Grandpa Sheng looked at Sheng Bowen in amazement. It was obvious what he had been worrying about. So, he nodded. “Good. You did a great job.”
“I was just nipping it in the bud.”
Gu Ziling did collude with someone in the Hu family to cause trouble. It was just that Mrs. Hu was too busy with her own trouble now.
“Mr. Chanil has some conditions. After you’ve read it, we will bring it to the meeting with the board of directors. If everyone agrees, we will proceed.”
“Whatever the conditions may be, I will agree as long as we can continue the project.”
As long as Huang Yao would not suffer loss.
And looking at Sheng Kai’s place, it was still empty. He had been hiding in his study for two days now, refusing to see anyone because he could not accept that Sheng Bowen was replacing him.
“Grandpa, I want to meet with Eighth Brother tonight.”
He had been wanting to meet up with Eighth Brother but Grandpa Sheng was always on his guard, spying on him and sometimes exploding in anger.
But now, Sheng Bowen took the initiative to mention it to Grandpa Sheng to help him get over with it.
“Just go.”
“It’s not about Huang Yao but for Xiao Ran. When I’ve got the result, I will tell you what it is in person.”
Grandpa Sheng nodded and patted Sheng Bowen’s shoulder. “I never thought that you’d be so mature in handling things. Not bad.”
Seeing his changes, Hu Ran finally felt that it was easier to get along with him. But the only problem was that there were two malignant tumors in the family, so she started to worry about Grandpa Sheng’s safety again. After all, Gu Ziling was someone who could and would work with her stepmother.
However, they probably wouldn’t dare to do anything to Grandpa Sheng for now.
…
At nine o’clock, two cars stopped at the gate of the police station.
After the police saw the cars, they told Mu Qiqi, “Xiao Qi, your family is here.”
Mu Qiqi looked out through the window and smiled. “Thanks, senior.”
“Qiqi, since there aren’t any clues now, you and Shanshan can go home,” said the professor to the girls.
“I won’t go back since I don’t have a family to fetch me.” Feng Shanshan retrieved a magnifying glass and started examining the body up close, including her clothing.
“Tang Yan.”
Seeing the professor wanting Tang Yan to send her home again, Feng Shanshan quickly said, “Professor, I will go home on my own. I don’t want to trouble anyone.”
“Hey… Tang Yan is not some sort of scourge. You can see how popular he is.”
When Feng Shanshan was about to criticize him, she accidentally discovered something. “Professor, I found something.”
When Shen Qing died, she was wearing a pure silk pajama set, which consisted of a cardigan and a spaghetti dress.
When her body was discovered, her clothes remained intact. So, they had been focusing on her cardigan. But now, Feng Shanshan discovered something similar to a fingerprint on the spaghetti dress.
“Run a fingerprint analysis now.”
…
By then, Mu Qiqi was already at the entrance of the police station. Seeing Sheng Bowen and Hu Ran come, she asked, “Are you coming for the paparazzo?”
“Get in first,” Sheng Xiao told her.
Mu Qiqi nodded, got into the car, and sat beside Sheng Xiao. Then, Sheng Xiao told her, “Do you think anyone can stand the stench on your body like me?”
Mu Qiqi sniffed her body and said, “The body hasn’t stank yet, so I should smell okay.”
“Just get changed first.”
“Okay, my almighty hubby,” Mu Qiqi said quickly. “I never thought that Third Sister-in-law would be involved in this case. I had never imagined that her stepmother is such a cruel person.”
“Any progress?”
Mu Qiqi hugged Sheng Xiao’s neck and lay in his arms. “No. You know the character of a paparazzo, cunning and adaptable. He’s good at telling lies.”
Sheng Xiao returned her hug.
“You made it to the news again today. You even mentioned Zhongteng.”
“Are you not happy?”
“No, I like how you scare people,” Sheng Xiao replied. “When I came to pick you up just now, I saw a lot of people from the media around here. I let Xu Che get some men to take care of them. When you need them, you can get them from him directly.”
“Okay.” Mu Qiqi nodded and rubbed her body on Sheng Xiao’s. “You are the best.”
