Chapter 423: Chapter 423: Shocking!
Old Man Qian had initially wanted to ask Song Yunuan to go talk to the relevant personnel at the precinct, to tell them it was just a joke she played with Second Aunt Zhang and the others.
There was no such thing as psychotropic incense, nor any feudal superstitious activities.
Since Song Yunuan was from the countryside, she likely didn’t have any money on hand.
He guessed that a hundred yuan would probably make her happily agree to his proposal.
However, he was taken aback when he heard what Song Yunuan had said and instinctively countered, “What ironclad evidence does she have in her hands?”
Song Yunuan spread her hands, “I have no idea about that.”
“Then how did you co to know of it?” Old Man Qian couldn’t help but ask.
Second Aunt Zhang told .”
Old Man Qian’s mind was in a turmoil.
No, wasn’t it her who reported on Second Aunt Zhang?
Why would Second Aunt Zhang tell her that?
Old Man Qian decided not to think about it.
He commanded Song Yunuan in a commanding tone, “Song Yunuan, go to the precinct right now and tell them that you were just joking with Second Aunt Zhang and the rest.
There’s no such thing as psychotropic incense, and you’re not engaging in any feudal superstitious activities.
You’re doing this because you had so disagreents with Shangguan Wan, so you just wanted to ss with them a bit.
If you feel you’re at a disadvantage, how about I give you a hundred yuan?”
After he said this, Old Man Gu was so angered that he laughed.
He wished he could pin the old bastard to the ground and give him a good beating.
He still cursed furiously, “You old scoundrel, what nonsense are you spouting here?
The evidence is conclusive; that’s the truth.
What joke are you talking about?
Besides, is this matter a child’s play?
Aren’t you just harming our Little Nuan?
Your heart is too wicked.
I’m telling you, Qian Yingchen, I’ve been bearing with you for a long ti.
Don’t think that just because you’ve got sothing on soone, you can do whatever you like.
I’ve already confessed to the leaders back then.
It’s just that it wasn’t made public for so reasons.
In your heart, you’ve lost even the most basic sense of righteousness.
Are you pretending to be confused or are you really confused?”
He pulled Song Yunuan behind him and couldn’t help but step forward and give Old Man Qian a shove, saying, “If you dare to talk to our Little Nuan in that tone again, Qian Yingchen, I, Gu Tiansheng, will absolutely not let you off!”
Old Man Qian staggered back, nearly falling to the ground.
His face turned red, and his finger trembled as he pointed at Old Man Gu.
His eyes were full of humiliation and anger.
All this ti, he’d confessed to the leaders, and yet not a single word was said by him.
So all these years, his occasional probing words had made him look like a fool, hadn’t they?
And what’s more, Old Man Gu was being so protective of Song Yunuan?
“Old Man Gu, you are very sly.
Where have I been confused?
Are you trying to get
to retire early, just like you did?
I’m telling you it’s impossible; I plan to last longer than you in service.
I’m not going to move out of the big courtyard, and my wife was wronged; it’s you Gu family and Song Yunuan who conspired against her.
Yes, it was your collusion.
My Anna didn’t have to settle for your grandson Gu Huai’an; she had long lost all interest in him.
You really thought Gu Huai’an was such a prized catch.
I’m telling you, Old Man Gu, your sche won’t succeed.
I’m going to report to the relevant departnt leaders now.
I will accuse you, Old Man Gu, of knowing the law and breaking it, of allowing and abetting certain relatives to fra and set people up!”
Song Yunuan raised an eyebrow.
That ‘certain relative’ must be referring to her.
Old Man Gu: “Go ahead and sue wherever you want; I’m not afraid of you.
Go ahead, the net of heaven has large shes, but it lets nothing through.
Those who do evil will surely be punished.
If I, Old Gu have done sothing wrong, then I’ll accept the punishnt willingly.”
Then, Old Man Gu looked suspiciously at Old Man Qian, who talked about suing but hadn’t moved an inch, and said, “You must be so afraid of your spouse being in the precinct because you feel guilty, right?
Could it be that your wife has done sothing else, and you’re afraid it will all co out during the questioning?”
Before he could finish his sentence, Old Man Qian was so angry that he jumped up and down: “You’re talking nonsense!”
Old Master Gu was just about to respond when suddenly, a thin voice rang out beside him, suddenly echoing in his mind.
[Of course, Old Man Qian is frightened because he witnessed Qu Lii smothering his nephew to death with a pillow!]
Old Master Gu stiffened, then turned his head to look at Song Yunuan standing beside him.
This was Song Yunuan’s voice, no mistake, it was her.
But…
but how did she know?
This silly girl, why did she blurt it out in front of Old Man Qian?
She really is a calf not afraid of tigers.
He turned his head to look at Qian Yingchen again.
All he saw was Qian Yingchen staring at him with his eyes, eerily, yet without any trace of emotional fluctuation due to that sentence.
Could this old man really have such a strong capacity for bearing stress?
And, just at that mont, that voice continued to ring out.
Old Master Gu turned his head back to look at Song Yunuan.
To his shock, he found that the young girl was just blinking her moist, large eyes; her mouth had not opened at all.
[Actually, Old Man Qian didn’t understand why Qu Lii suffocated her nephew.
Although Qian Cheng was paralyzed in bed, there were dedicated caregivers to look after him, so there was no need for Qu Lii to lift a finger.]
[Moreover, Qian Cheng was not living for free; his dical expenses were settled by his workplace, and he received a handso salary monthly, after all, he was injured in the line of duty.]
[But Old Man Qian did not dare to ask; he was afraid that by asking, he would beco an accomplice.
Qian Cheng was of a certain status, and to have him killed like that, and him being the uncle, unable to bring the murderer to justice, he couldn’t show his face to people.
So, he simply pretended to be confused.]
Old Master Gu’s body stiffened.
All he could think about was Song Yunuan’s voice.
Yet, Old Man Qian seed not to hear it at all.
Old Master Gu, who was always clear-headed, was now utterly confounded.
What’s going on?
What on earth is going on?
And, just at that mont, a tall figure hurried over from afar.
It was Gu Huai’an.
He had not gotten close when he heard Little Nuan’s heart voice, and his heart imdiately sank.
His piercing gaze turned to the people standing at the scene.
They were standing in front of the restaurant.
There was the restaurant manager, two policen, Qian Yingchen, and Grandpa’s security officer.
The one standing behind Qian Yingchen was also his security officer.
Gu Huai’an strode over to the crowd, nonchalantly shielding Song Yunuan.
Grandpa’s expression was off, while the others seed normal.
Little Nuan’s heart voice was not sothing one could hear just casually.
It probably could only be heard by those related to her, those who harbored imnse goodwill towards her.
Song Yunuan rely glanced at Gu Huai’an.
She continued to ponder in her heart about the scenes and images she had witnessed.
Gu Huai’an wasn’t able to stop her in ti, he could only shield Little Nuan.
[Speaking of Old Man Qian, he was no ordinary person; he had a very strong psychological quality.
Facing Qu Lii, who had suffocated his own nephew, he could still interact with her as usual, as a loving husband and wife, harmonious and joyful.]
[Old Master Gu and Old Man Qian had completely different characters, due to a case thirty years ago; he hadn’t been able to get over that ntal hurdle.]
[Murong Feng was saving him, yet he had killed Murong Feng with his own hands.]
[Therefore, he lived in constant unrest, tornted by guilt.]
[On Labor Day, Old Master Gu chose to commit suicide as a life for a life.]
[He thought that everything had been investigated clearly, debts repaid, ends tied, so he went to his death peacefully, as atonent for Murong Feng.]
[What a pity, he atoned too early, for Murong Feng had not died at all; he had simply lost his mory!]
