My Lovely Wife is a Forensic Doctor - Chapter 339
Chapter 339 Concessions in Disguise
“Yu, you’re back.”
He greeted her with a smile but was ignored. However, he was not discouraged. Seeing her glance at the bathroom, he immediately said softly with a fawning expression, “I’ll get you a bathrobe.”
Mu Yu still ignored him and walked to the locker room as if no one else was in the house.
“Yu…”
He followed her for two steps. Seeing that she completely ignored his existence, he could only stop gloomily. After thinking for a while, he quickly turned around and ran into the bathroom. He carefully adjusted the temperature of the water and filled the bathtub for her.
Before the bathtub was full, Mu Yu entered the bathroom. He quickly handed her the bath towel with a smile.
She did not take the bath towel from him, nor did she look at him. She only said coldly, “Get out.”
He bared his teeth, put the bath towel to the side, and then walked out with his head down.
“Did you call the police?”
When he was about to reach the door, he heard Mu Yu’s question. He immediately turned around and saw that she was still turning her back to him. He sighed and softly answered, “Yes.”
She sneered and said, “Don’t you have too many concerns? Why did you call the police in the end?”
“Because… I don’t want to lose you.” This was really from the bottom of his heart.
Her back straightened slightly, but she still didn’t look back, and she didn’t make a sound for a while.
He thought there was a chance, so he was secretly happy, but he didn’t dare to be rash. He tried to call her again softly.
“I’m going to take a bath. You can go out.”
He didn’t expect that she would say this after a long time. He was a little discouraged, but he didn’t say anything. He turned around and went out of the bathroom with heavy footsteps.
Mu Yu walked to the door of the bathroom with her head down, locked the sliding door, and pressed the switch on the glass wall at the same time. Then, she turned to look outside.
At this time, Qin Jinhuan had sat down on the bed and was staring blankly at the bathroom. The switch on the glass wall between them had been turned on, and now she could see his every move, but he could not see her at all.
She slowly walked to the glass wall and looked at him fixedly.
Suddenly, she found that he seemed to have become much more haggard. Her heart inexplicably ached again.
If not for that message, the two of them should be lying on the bed, speaking affectionate words until they fell asleep in each other’s arms.
Unfortunately, there were no ifs in the world, and she couldn’t pretend to be deaf and ignore the message.
Although she knew that the person who sent her the message anonymously had ulterior motives, she was still grateful that the person let her know the truth.
Even if the truth made her so painful, she didn’t regret it because she was not good at deceiving herself.
He also could not blame others. He had lifted a rock only to drop it on his own feet.
Even if Dong Wanqing was still alive, she would despise him for using such a method to force Qin Wentao and Dong Yueyun to leave An City. In doing so, he used her and her unborn child as bargaining chips. He wasn’t motivated by love for her and their child from the bottom of his heart. There were many things in his heart that were more important than her.
She felt so painful not only because she still loved him deeply, but also because of her hatred for him.
When she was standing on the rooftop, she really did not think of jumping down because she was not such a fragile person. Moreover, her parents were still alive. She could not disappoint her parents because of her disappointment at love and marriage.
She went there just to make herself more clear-headed to face everything in front of her and see the true face of Qin Jinhuan.
Under her pressure, he reluctantly chose to call the police. Although she was now only one step from bringing Yin Anran to justice and seeking justice for her child, she was not happy at all. Instead, she felt extremely oppressive as if there was something blocking her chest.
She turned around and silently walked to the bathtub. Without taking off her clothes, she stepped into the bathtub and completely submerged herself in the water. After a long while, she sat up.
The feeling of suffocation was really uncomfortable.
She really could not imagine the pain Dong Wanqing endured when she fell from such a high place to the ground.
Dong Wanqing was not a bold and paranoid woman. At that time, she dared to attack the police and run away, and she even forced them to go to the rooftop with a knife. Now Mu Yu truly understood the despair and resentment of Dong Wanqing at that time. She was mercilessly abandoned by her aunt and uncle. Then, she was framed by someone and ended up in jail, whereas the person who framed her was at large, and the person was so powerful that she did not know what else he would do to her. She could not see any hope for a bright future, and death was the best relief for her. Nevertheless, she was unwilling to die in vain, so she wanted to perish together with the people she hated.
Dong Wanqing had been in a pathetic situation, but at this time, her situation was not much better than that of Dong Wanqing.
The most painful thing in the world was to be deceived and hurt by the person one loved most.
Dong Wanqing chose to commit suicide to free herself. She should be as determined as Dong Wanqing. The difference was that she was not going to commit suicide, but to completely separate from Qin Jinhuan. Perhaps by leaving him and no longer loving him, her heart would not hurt so much.
“Mu Yu, don’t be soft-hearted, and stop deceiving yourself. Only by separating with him can you minimize the mutual harm between you and him to the greatest extent, maybe…”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Qin Jinhuan knocked on the door and said, “Yu, Rong Jian called you.”
Only then did she remember that she had called Rong Jian before. Mu Yu suddenly turned around.
“Do you want me to answer the call?” He asked cautiously from outside.
“No need.” Mu Yu stood up and stepped out of the bathtub. She quickly wiped off the water droplets on her body, put on a bathrobe, and went to open the door.
Qin Jinhuan was still waiting at the door with her mobile phone. When he saw her coming out, he immediately handed it over.
She took the phone without looking at him. She turned and entered the bathroom again. With a “bang”, she closed the door and called Rong Jian back.
“Yu, are you asleep?” Rong Jian’s voice was hoarse and apologetic.
“Not yet. I can’t sleep either.”
“Oh. Then, is it convenient for you to come out and talk with me?”
She immediately replied, “Where are you? I’ll go find you.”
“Are you home?”
“Yes.”
“Alright, I’m almost at your house. Let’s talk in the yard later.”
“Okay. I’ll go down now.”
Mu Yu hung up the phone and wiped the remaining water off her body. Then, she opened the door and went out. She quickly walked to the locker room and changed into a simple set of clothes. After that, she went out directly. From beginning to end, she did not even look at Qin Jinhuan, who was standing in the middle of the room.
When she just arrived in the courtyard, she saw the maid open the gate of the courtyard. A car slowly drove in. Knowing that it was Rong Jian’s car, she quickly stepped forward to greet him.
The car came to a halt, Rong Jian stopped the engine and got out of the car.
“Chief Rong!”
“Yu! It’s so late, I am sorry to disturb you…”
“You are welcome. I have wanted to find you.” Mu Yu said as she pointed to a pavilion on the side. “Let’s talk over there.”
Rong Jian nodded and followed her. He asked softly, “Yu, you called me to ask about Dong Wanqing’s case, right?”
“No, I wanted to know what Qin Jinhuan said to the police.” Mu Yu didn’t want to beat around the bush in front of Rong Jian.
Hearing Mu Yu directly call Qin Jinhuan by his full name, Rong Jian slowed down a little. Then, he quickly stepped forward. After Mu Yu sat down, he slowly said, “Huan confessed to me about Dong Wanqing in the evening. He said that he would take legal responsibility for this matter. I was shocked at that time. If Zeyu hadn’t stopped me, I would have beaten him up. At that time, the first thing I thought of was to hold the people who violated the law responsible, but after calming down…”
Mu Yu, who had just sat down, suddenly sat up again. “Are you going to cover them up?!”
Rong Jian sighed deeply and took out a few items from his pocket and placed them in front of her.
Under the light, Mu Yu saw that they were four employee cards and she could not help but be surprised. “How do you have so many employee cards?”
“This is my employee card. The remaining three belong respectively to Fan, Lifeng, and Zihao. They broke the rules and I neglected my duty. Tomorrow morning, I will accompany them to confess to Director Gu and accept the punishment of the police bureau with them. Rubing’s leg injury has not healed yet. After I quit the job, I hope you can take care of her for me.”
Mu Yu was shocked. “You, the four of you want to resign?”
Rong Jian smiled bitterly. “We are not resigning. We are dismissed. Not only will we lose our jobs, but we may also be sent to jail.”
“Sent to jail?!”
“Yes. Maybe not only Fan, the other two, and Yin Anran will be sent to jail, but even Huan may also end up in jail. Yu, you have to be mentally prepared.” Rong Jian signed deeply. “Qing Tian Group has been in trouble recently. Grandpa’s health has been deteriorating. It is impossible for Grandpa to return to Qing Tian Group and be in charge. If Huan is involved in a lawsuit, Qing Tian Group is likely to fall into the hands of Qin Wentao and Dong Yueyun. Grandpa’s efforts in this life may be wasted. Grandpa will definitely be angered to death by them. He will definitely not die in peace.”
His words made Mu Yu feel cold all over, and she sat there motionless.
“I can’t handle that murder case anymore. When I go back later, I will sort out the files of the case as soon as possible and give them to you. Yu, this case can only be solved by you and Rubing in the future. It will be hard on you.”
Mu Yu lowered her head and she was silent for a long time. Then, she sighed and said in a soft tone, “Chief Rong, this matter has been concluded. Can we…”
“No! Anyone who makes a mistake should be punished!” Rong Jian obviously guessed what she was going to say and immediately waved his hand to object to her. “Yu, I came to find you so late not to persuade you to give up reversing the case for Dong Wanqing. On the contrary, I want Director Gu to reveal the truth of this case to the public. I came to you just to let you be mentally prepared to take the lead. I know that you are competent. I don’t trust others. I am afraid that others will be negligent and mishandle the case. Thanks to your careful investigation, we are able to do justice for those who have been wronged.”
Mu Yu did not expect that Rong Jian would say these words. She was shocked and waved her hand repeatedly, “No, no, no. Chief Rong, you have overestimated my ability. I am just an ordinary forensic doctor.”
“Don’t be modest. You have to believe in yourself!”
“Chief Rong…”
“And there is another reason that I came to see you.” Rong Jian interrupted her. “Fan and the other two have been thinking about this in the police bureau. They are going to see Director Gu at dawn to confess together. They all felt ashamed to see you and asked me to bring you a message.”
“What message?”
Rong Jian stood up and took two steps to the side. Then, he bowed deeply to Mu Yu and sincerely said the three words “We are sorry.”
Mu Yu was shocked and hurriedly stepped aside. At the same time, she asked in surprise, “Chief Rong, what are you…”
“They asked me to apologize to you on their behalf. They have no face to apologize to you in person.”
“But they are not to blame for this matter.”
“Indeed, they aren’t fully responsible. It’s mainly because I neglected my duties.”
“No, Chief Rong, I didn’t mean that. I…”
“Yu, take good care of yourself. And there is also Grandpa. I can only count on you. But don’t worry, I will tell Ying to come and help you. It’s already very late. I have to go back to the police bureau to sort out the case. I have to go. You should go back and rest.” With that, Rong Jian walked to the side of the car.
Mu Yu watched him get on the car and leave in a daze. For a moment, her heart was a mess.
She paced in the large courtyard alone for a long time. It was not until dawn that she woke up from her trance. She turned around and ran back to her room to change her clothes. Then, she ran down the stairs.
