Chapter 161 The Disliked Wife 15

Around 3 p.m., the couple were sitting in front of the computer, one talking and the other listening, when Ning Yan's phone rang.

Ning Yan glanced at the number; it was her former mother-in-law's. After thinking for a moment, she answered the phone. "Yan Yan, has Xing Xing come looking for you? We haven't seen him for ages, and his grandfather and I are so worried..."

"Su Xingxing is missing? I'm the person he hates the most, how could he possibly come looking for me? Didn't you call the police when the child went missing?"

"We mainly didn't know when he went missing, so we thought we'd call and ask first."

“He was wearing a smartwatch with GPS tracking. You can ask Li Qiuying; she's the contact person he set up.”

After saying that, Ning Yan immediately hung up the phone and then called the police. She figured the police would handle it, so there was no need to bother her.

"By the way, didn't you keep people watching the hospital? Ask them if they've seen Su Xingxing?"

Xu Chengjun took out his phone and asked, and to his surprise, the other side actually sent over a few photos. They were taken around 11:30 a.m., when Su Xingxing left the hospital alone, looking lost and dejected.

The private investigator also sent a voice message: "I thought he would be back soon after he went out, so I didn't pay attention. I didn't expect that he would not return for several hours. I had to remind him and ask where their child was before the old couple remembered that they had a grandson."

Ning Yan: ……

Regardless, Su Xingxing and she are mother and son, so even though the child is lost, she still has to make an appearance.

She went to the police station herself, but the police found a video through the hospital's surveillance footage. After leaving the hospital, Su Xingxing walked west for several hundred meters and met a simply dressed middle-aged woman. The woman talked to her for a while before leaving.

Not far along, Su Xingxing turned into a small alley and was never seen again.

"The police are already searching for the middle-aged woman, but due to the limitations of the surveillance cameras' resolution and distance, her appearance is not very clear, making the search quite difficult."

After the police searched for three days without any news, Ning Yan felt relieved. She figured the middle-aged woman was probably a human trafficker, and the child had most likely been abducted.

He didn't like the original owner's mother, but now he'll have a wonderful mother who's skilled in everything, and he'll definitely like her.

There's a saying that goes, "No matter how powerful you are at home, society will always teach you a lesson."

Hopefully that kid can pull through, Amen.

...

Ning Yan focused on her studies, but instead of receiving news of Su Xingxing being found, she witnessed a lot of excitement.

After learning that Su Yun had become penniless, Li Qiuying didn't care about his life or death at all. No sooner had Su Yun been rescued and sent back to his ward than she started making a scene about divorcing him.

The doctor had just instructed the family not to subject the patient to any further stress, and she wanted to divorce her son. Could the elderly Su couple tolerate this?

The three of them started arguing, and then they started fighting.

Su's mother hated Li Qiuying the most. It was all because of this bitch that her good daughter-in-law was gone, her grandson was lost, her son was hospitalized because of her, and her son's company was also gone.

She went up and scratched Li Qiuying's face until it was covered in scratches. Su's father also helped her. Li Qiuying was so frantic from being hit that she ran away.

I didn't dare take the elevator because I had to wait, so I had to run up the stairs. But when I was going down the stairs, my heels were too high and I twisted my ankle and tumbled down the stairs.

Just as Su Yun was feeling heartbroken, she heard a loud shout outside the stairwell, "Someone has fallen down the stairs! Come quick and save them!"

Su's parents chased after her for a few steps and then returned, never expecting that Li Qiuying would fall down the stairs.

What surprised them even more was that the hospital stairs were a bit steep, and Li Qiuying was running a bit too fast. She hadn't had any luck lately and might have been carrying some bad luck with her. She broke her neck and died on the spot.

Su Yun, who was originally heartbroken, suddenly stopped being heartbroken and even forced himself to get up to handle Li Qiuying's funeral arrangements.

He and Li Qiuying were husband and wife, so his property would naturally be inherited by him after her death.

Ning Yan didn't lie to her. Li Qiuying had a blast abroad. She was smart and made a lot of money. After returning to China, she bought a house worth more than 10 million yuan. In addition, Su Yun often gave her gifts. Many of the gifts that she didn't like or didn't need were converted into cash, leaving her with more than 5 million yuan in cash.

Li Qiuying's family was not in the city, and Su Yun didn't even inform the Qiu family of the death. He sold the house at a price 10% lower than the market price, and then took Li Qiuying's money and the two elders back to their hometown.

Xu Chengjun has been keeping a close eye on Su Yun. He is Su Xingxing's biological father. If Su Xingxing comes back in the future, he will have to take on the responsibility of raising the child. What will happen to Su Xingxing if he runs out of money?

So he sent his assistant and lawyer to Su Yun's hometown. Without resorting to any tricks, he went directly to her home to threaten her, saying, "Take out one-third of the money you got from Li Qiuying. This money is for finding Su Xingxing. We can't let her spend all her energy and money searching for her. After all, you are also the child's father."

If you don't give it to us, we'll inform the Li family. At that point, it's uncertain whether you'll even have any money left.

It could easily lead to lawsuits; a bankrupt billionaire murdering his wife is something many people are interested in.

Su Yun was already feeling guilty for hastily fleeing back to his hometown. Li Qiuying's death was somewhat related to his parents, and he should have given a portion of the money to the Li family. In addition, his assistant had brought a professional lawyer with him, so he didn't struggle for long before giving the money to his assistant, or rather, to Su Xingxing.

Both parties have signed legal contracts.

After his assistant left with the lawyer, Su Yun didn't dare stay in his hometown anymore. He always felt that someone was watching him. He took the remaining eight million yuan and went to a third-tier city, intending to start over.

Unfortunately, it's tough to run a business these days, and investing is quite risky. After struggling for several years, I ended up losing all my money and only having a small, secondhand apartment of about 70 square meters left.

Having resigned himself to his fate, Su Yun dutifully began his work journey. Occasionally, he would think back to his happy life in the past. It was impossible for him not to regret it, but there was no medicine for regret in this world.

...

Su Xingxing's only memory before falling into a coma was a rough, large hand covering his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and then he passed out.

When he woke up again, he was lying on the kang (a heated brick bed). There were cobwebs in one corner of the ceiling, and the furnishings in the room were extremely simple. Before he could take a closer look, an old woman walked in. “Awake? If you’re awake, get down here and get to work. I bought you to take care of the child and to have someone to do the work. Don’t even think about slacking off.”

Su Xingxing has been pampered since birth and has never done any work.

And he was extremely hungry at that moment, feeling like he hadn't eaten for days. "I, I'm hungry."
