Chapter 185: Both Touched and Terrified
by Sunflower“No, Sister Li, I really don’t know about your husband’s matter. Why do you suspect me?”
Guo Mengyao was really confused and didn’t want to take the blame. As for taking advantage of Sister Li and buying back her shares at a low price, she had thought about it, but this matter was strange. Guo Mengyao didn’t dare to take advantage of it before she figured things out.
“Not you? You really don’t know? My husband was detained and investigated by the discipline department of his unit. I contacted a circle of people and found out that he had offended someone and was reported. I thought about it, and I’ve only offended you these days. And Xue Jun just had an accident. Both my family and Xue Jun’s family have had accidents. How can there be such a coincidence?”
“What? Xue Jun also had an accident? What happened to him?”
Guo Mengyao was both surprised and happy, and quickly asked.
“The matter between our two families, you really didn’t do it?” Sister Li on the other end couldn’t help but frown slightly.
“You tell me about Xue Jun’s matter first,” Guo Mengyao urged. She had been tormented enough by Xue Jun these days, both in the company and at home. Now that she heard he had an accident, she was of course very happy.
Sister Li directly told her the general course of events, and then asked suspiciously, “Mengyao, you really didn’t do the things between me and Xue Jun?”
“It really wasn’t me,” Guo Mengyao said frankly. “I don’t have that much power.”
Sister Li hesitated and asked, “Is it… your old classmate who did it? He just said some harsh words to us last night, and then Xue Jun and I both had accidents one after another. What’s his background?”
Guo Mengyao had actually thought of Chen Feng, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt it was impossible. Although she wanted to follow her words and take the “credit” for Chen Feng, she felt that it was not good.
One was that this method was a bit too ruthless. Xue Jun went directly to prison, and even Sister Li’s husband might have to go to jail. This would obviously bring hatred to Chen Feng and herself.
The other was that what was fake could not be true. She didn’t think these two things were done by Chen Feng. He had just come to Guangcheng and didn’t know anyone. Even if he had some money, he shouldn’t have such a strong and rapid ability to act.
If she admitted it, and Sister Li asked them to help her husband get out of trouble, and they couldn’t do it, wouldn’t that be looking for trouble for themselves, or even directly making an enemy?
So, this matter could not be falsely claimed.
“He doesn’t have much of a background, just a little bit of money. This is also his first time in Guangcheng. He’s unfamiliar with the place and has no ability or connections to do such a thing. As for Xue Jun’s matter, how do you think he operated it? Xue Jun’s mistress’s lover couldn’t have been arranged by him, right?”
Guo Mengyao asked back jokingly.
Sister Li said with a solemn expression, “It seems you don’t know your old classmate very well. At first, I didn’t think this matter had anything to do with you or your old classmate. But first Xue Jun was unlucky, and then my husband was investigated. I carefully and deeply inquired about it. It just so happened that Xue Jun’s mistress’s lover had some relative relationship with my family. Guess what I found out?”
“What did you find out?” Guo Mengyao played along.
“Originally, he didn’t know Xue Jun’s mistress. It was yesterday at noon that a stranger added him on WeChat, then gave him various information and photos of Xue Jun’s mistress, and even directly transferred fifty thousand yuan to him, instigating him to go and woo her. And he said she was very easy to woo. As long as he pretended to be a rich man and transferred ten thousand yuan to her as a red envelope when they met.
My relative is very lecherous and couldn’t resist. So he added the mistress’s WeChat and started chatting with her. He’s not short of money, and the mysterious person transferred fifty thousand to him, so he didn’t have to spend his own money. So after chatting for a while, he transferred twenty thousand to the mistress and easily hooked up with her. He went to the hotel in the afternoon and to the mistress’s residence at night. As luck would have it, he was caught by Xue Jun. Don’t you think it’s a coincidence?”
“It’s quite a coincidence.” After being stunned for a moment, Guo Mengyao had to admit that this matter was strange. And it happened to be yesterday. She had just told Chen Feng about Xue Jun’s matter yesterday morning. At that time, Chen Feng said he would come to Guangcheng to help her.
Could it be that after Chen Feng finished the call yesterday morning, he began to mobilize his connections and energy to help her, and with his great power, he found out about Xue Jun’s mistress and then set up this trap?
Although this sounded a bit incredible, it was also plausible in terms of motive and time.
But the problem was, did Chen Feng really have such great power? Could it be that he not only had money now, but also had a very strong network of connections behind him?
“Originally, if it was just one thing, I shouldn’t have suspected your old classmate. But then my husband had an accident. It was this morning that someone reported him, and it was a real-name report. The person who reported him was my husband’s confidant in the same department.
Under normal circumstances, my husband’s confidant would not have reported my husband, because it would not have been good for him. But he did report him. I finally found out that someone had threatened and bribed him, forcing him to do so.
If my husband and Xue Jun are not enough, then your husband’s matter is just enough. Not long ago, I asked a friend at the police station to inquire about your matter. Guess what? I just happened to find out that your husband was detained. It was said that he was framed by a bar girl. He was drugged, drunk driving, endangering public safety, intentionally injuring people, and so on. He would have to be in prison for at least ten years. Tell me, how can it be so coincidental that the three of us just happened to have a grudge against you and were against you, and then we all had bad luck at the same time.”
At this time, Guo Mengyao’s mind was greatly shaken, and she couldn’t speak. At first, she really didn’t expect her husband’s matter to be related to Chen Feng. This might be because she was in the middle of it.
But now that she was reminded by Sister Li, and her husband and Xue Jun had an accident at the same time.
One thing was a coincidence, and two things together were also a coincidence. But there couldn’t be three things together that were still a coincidence, right?
“Mengyao, you probably really don’t know. But for the sake of our many years of friendship, I beg your old classmate to be merciful and spare my husband this time. If my husband can be safe, I will do what I say and transfer the shares I hold to you at the original price.”
“This… Sister Li, I really don’t know. Besides, I don’t think these things have anything to do with my classmate.”
“Mengyao, don’t worry. I will definitely keep this matter a secret. I won’t even tell my husband, so that I won’t be nagged by him. After all, I caused this matter, but he is the one who is suffering now. If he knew, he would definitely be very angry and complain about me. So, don’t worry, I will definitely not tell a third person.”
Guo Mengyao didn’t know what to say for a moment. After a while, she said, “I… I’ll ask him first.”
“Okay, okay, you help me ask. You tell him that after this matter, I will definitely not retaliate. I don’t have the ability to retaliate either. I just hope my family can be reunited and safe. Mengyao, you help me say some good words, I beg you.”
Guo Mengyao hung up the phone with a complicated mood.
She originally thought that Xue Jun and Sister Li’s husband’s matter could not be related to Chen Feng. But now that she was analyzed by Sister Li, and her husband’s matter, she couldn’t help but have doubts about Chen Feng.
This matter seemed to have nothing to do with Chen Feng, an outsider, on the surface, but there was a very obvious common point.
That was that recently, the three parties or their spouses all had a stake in her, Guo Mengyao, and they all had a conflict of interest with Guo Mengyao and had a grudge against her.
In addition to Xue Jun and Li Kewei, the two direct parties, there was also Sister Li’s husband.
So, these three things added together, and they broke out almost at the same time. Not to mention that Sister Li suspected her, Guo Mengyao herself suspected herself.
Of course, Guo Mengyao knew that she didn’t do it. She didn’t have such great ability. But Chen Feng was very likely to have done it, and he also had such great ability.
And Chen Feng did these things for her. She was a little touched and also a little scared. Chen Feng’s methods were really too ruthless. In addition to Sister Li’s husband being a little more polite, the other two were directly treated to ten years in prison.
Especially her husband. She had asked a lawyer before. For such a vicious crime, if he was only sentenced to more than ten years, it would be considered a light sentence. It was very likely to be more than twenty years.
This was really ruthless for Li Kewei.
Guo Mengyao would not have sympathized with him before, because it was all his own fault. But if Chen Feng was involved in this, and it was Chen Feng’s conspiracy against Li Kewei from the beginning.
The nature of this was a bit different.
Could Guo Mengyao not be moved that Chen Feng was willing to take the risk of committing a crime for her? But she couldn’t accept Chen Feng’s cruel methods for a while.
Guo Mengyao hesitated for a long time. After preparing herself mentally, she picked up her phone and sent a WeChat message to Chen Feng, asking where he was.
In the morning, because it was Sunday, Guo Mengyao stayed at home to accompany her daughter, so she didn’t contact Chen Feng.
Then, until noon, Chen Feng didn’t contact her either. Instead, Sister Li contacted her.
When Chen Feng received Guo Mengyao’s WeChat message, he had just woken up not long ago and was lying in bed scrolling through his phone.
The bed in this hotel was too soft. He didn’t sleep well last night, so he woke up late. And because he hadn’t received the investigation materials from the information merchant yet, let alone how to help Guo Mengyao deal with Xue Jun, he had been a little guilty and hadn’t taken the initiative to contact her.
Now that Guo Mengyao took the initiative to contact him, he was still a little guilty, but he quickly replied: [Hotel]
[Okay, I’ll go find you right away]
When Chen Feng saw her message, he would have been very happy in the past, but now he was a little at a loss. He could only quickly open QQ on his phone and contact the information merchant, asking him to hurry up.
This information merchant was also quite powerful. In a few minutes, he sent him some basic information about Xue Jun, as well as his home address and license plate number. He still needed time for other more specific information.
After Chen Feng looked at it, he was generally satisfied. He immediately transferred another two thousand yuan to him, saying that if there was more specific information, he would add more money.
After Chen Feng looked at Xue Jun’s personal information, he went to wash up.
By the time he was done, Guo Mengyao had also arrived.
He opened the door and let her in. He saw her looking at him with a complicated expression. After a long while, she said faintly, “Chen Feng, thank you for everything you’ve done for me. I don’t know how to repay you, but… but, for you to do this for me, I feel very guilty. Am I worth you doing this?”
Chen Feng was a little confused. He didn’t know why Guo Mengyao was suddenly so affectionate.
He thought to himself, “I just came to Guangcheng to support you, stand up for you, and at most, I threatened Xue Jun a little. Is it necessary for you to be so moved? As for dealing with Xue Jun, I haven’t even started yet.”
Therefore, Chen Feng shook his head humbly and said, “Don’t be so sentimental. What I did is nothing. After all, you are my old classmate and old lover. It’s what I should do.”
When Guo Mengyao heard him say that she was his old lover, she couldn’t help but feel a little shy. She said coquettishly, “What old lover? I haven’t been with you for a long time, and I’m not old.”
Chen Feng said with a grin, “Then I’ll call you my new lover.”
Guo Mengyao rolled her eyes at him. Then, seeing that Chen Feng was not taking any credit, she couldn’t help but feel moved.
At that moment, she came over in a few steps, hugged Chen Feng, and pressed her face against his shoulder. She said emotionally, “Chen Feng, I will remember everything you have done for me. As long as you don’t let me down in the future, I will definitely not let you down.”
Chen Feng was still confused. He really didn’t understand why Guo Mengyao was suddenly so emotional.
However, he liked what she said. He reached out and patted her back gently, “First of all, I have to declare that it’s impossible for me to marry you for the second time.”
Guo Mengyao was originally so moved that she really had the idea of marrying Chen Feng for the second time. But at this moment when they should be moved by each other, Chen Feng suddenly said this, which was really a buzzkill.
“Go to hell!” Guo Mengyao left Chen Feng’s embrace angrily and punched him on the shoulder.
Chen Feng grabbed her hand and said with a smile, “Don’t be so easily moved. I’ve only done this little thing for you, and you’re so moved?”
Guo Mengyao said with gentle eyes, “You’ve done enough for me. It’s just that I didn’t expect you to be such a powerful person before. Knowing that you’ve done so much for me, it’s really hard for me to connect you with the back-row boy who was engrossed in his studies. What have you been through all these years? The change is really big.”
Chen Feng was stunned and thought in confusion, “I’ve done a lot for you? How come I don’t know?”
“Chen Feng, although you did these things for me. Especially what you did to my ex-husband, I was moved and a little happy in my heart, but… I really don’t want you to be like this. Your methods are a bit… a bit too much. Of course, I’m not complaining about you, I’m just afraid that you will have an accident in the future. Promise me, okay? Don’t take such risks in the future. If you do this, you will also be at great risk.”
Chen Feng was confused and finally couldn’t help but ask, “How are my methods too much? And what happened to your husband?”
Guo Mengyao frowned and said unhappily, “He’s not my husband anymore. Besides, there are only the two of us here. Are you still trying to pretend in front of me?”
“What am I pretending?” Chen Feng had an innocent look on his face.
“Alright. I know you want to keep it a secret. I understand. But you really don’t have to be so guarded against me. I will definitely not tell anyone. Sister Li is the same. But you have to let her husband go. Otherwise, she will definitely fight us to the death. She is a local snake here. You are a strong dragon, but there is no need to offend her to death.”
