Chapter 148: Chapter 148: My Dad Extorted Your Dad Chapter 148: Chapter 148: My Dad Extorted Your Dad Yesterday, Ye Chuyi had just seen Tian Ma at the Wen Family.
She was treated as before, called and ordered about by Lin Yueqin, humbling herself before her, serving her without complaint, honestly to the point of seeming pitiable.
Could it be because she had been squeezed too hard by Lin Yueqin that she wanted revenge, and that’s why she extorted her, Lin Yueqin’s daughter?
Sheng Tingyuan’s deep voice rose again, interrupting Ye Chuyi’s chaotic thoughts, “I’ve found the person, the decision on how to deal with her is up to you. You can report her to the police or confront her yourself—it’s your choice.”
“The money has been transferred offshore many tis already and can’t be recovered. But it’s not a big deal, don’t worry about it.”
“But catching soone who harbors ill intentions towards you is not a loss. This ti it was extortion, next ti who knows what ans they may use against you. Better to catch them early and avoid future trouble.”
“So, your magic of good fortune on rainy days hasn’t disappeared, it really does exist and it’s quite effective.”
Ye Chuyi felt moved as she listened to him go on all at once.
He must have done a lot behind the scenes, otherwise, it would not have been possible to find the person so quickly. No wonder he had left early this morning.
“Sheng Tingyuan.”
“Hmm?”
“Thank you.”
“Hmm.”
Listening to his voice, Ye Chuyi felt a surge of unfamiliar emotions in her heart.
Five million was from him, and he was the one who found the person. Yet, he showed no sign of seeking credit, treating it as though he had rely done sothing trivial.
She asked him softly, “How should I thank you?”
“Just don’t stand by my bed at midnight with your hair down and wearing a white dress staring at .”
Ye Chuyi, recalling last night’s scene, took a mont to understand what he referred to, and couldn’t help laughing, “Sorry for scaring you, I didn’t an to wake you up. I just wanted to see if you were asleep.”
When Sheng Tingyuan heard her laugh, knowing that her mood had brightened, he took the initiative to inform her, “I have a social engagent tonight and will return ho very late, don’t wait up for .”
Ye Chuyi could have claid she hadn’t waited for him the night before, but now, after he had helped her so much, she couldn’t say it.
Her voice dry, she said, “Okay, I understand.”
“Watch your hands, don’t play with water when it’s raining.”
“Oh.”
Ye Chuyi felt that he was treating her like a child.
It was a novel experience.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Chuyi didn’t call the police after all; she planned to et with Tian Ma herself first.
Just as she was about to leave, her phone rang again.
It was a call from Du Yu’s son, Du Xiaoguang.
Ye Chuyi answered imdiately, “Du Xiaoguang, what’s happened?”
“I heard your father is going to be released from prison soon, right?”
“Yes, and I owe you thanks for your letter of forgiveness, he will be released tomorrow.”
“You don’t have to thank . I still haven’t forgiven your father. I issued the letter of forgiveness to repay the kindness of the Ye Family, it has nothing to do with you.”
While Du Xiaoguang’s tone was still harsh, it was already much better compared to the past when he would have cursed Ye Chuyi at the drop of a hat.
“I know you have always believed that your father didn’t kill my father, but I can assure you, the murderer was indeed him.”
Ye Chuyi frowned, “You’ve said that many tis, but my father has also repeatedly stated that he didn’t kill anyone.”
His voice low, Du Xiaoguang confessed, “There’s sothing I’ve never told anyone.”
“What is it?”
“Actually, before my father died, he threatened your father, extorted him, and demanded a million dollars.”
Ye Chuyi’s heart sank slightly, “Do you have evidence? There is no such record with the police.”
“Of course there’s no record with the police. Why would my father leave evidence of his extortion against your father? I was young then, and he didn’t hide it from , perhaps thinking I wouldn’t rember.”
Du Xiaoguang exhaled, “This isn’t sothing to be proud of, so I’ve always kept it a secret for my father. Anyway, your father was convicted, there was no need to tell the police.”
