The entire banquet hall was filled with the sound of women sobbing;
Although he was very annoyed, Jiang Luoning still recognized the owner of the voice. It was Aunt Mei, who had been hiding in the dark and whom they had been looking for for a long time.
"You! Let go of Aunt Mei!"
Dong Jiaxue was even more furious at this time, and the demeanor of a lady from a noble family that she had pretended to have before had long disappeared.
She broke free from Xu Weishen's support with such strength that the man took two steps back before he could barely stand. Her eyes were filled with disbelief and suspicion, as if she had just met the girl today.
She rushed to Aunt Mei, tore off the veil on the woman's head, took the foreign object out of her mouth, and frantically tried to untie the restraints on the woman's hands. However, she was either too scared or too nervous, and even if no one stopped her, she couldn't do it. In the end, she could only sit on the ground helplessly and cry.
“Aunt Mei, how come you didn’t guess that Chen Ziqiu had done such a big thing without telling you!”
Everything that happened at the banquet was broadcast to the lounge where Aunt Mei was being monitored. The woman now had an expression of disbelief.
Looking around, she saw all the people she had targeted before appear in front of her. Especially when her eyes fell on Dong Zicheng, she still felt a little fear.
"Why are you so frightened when you see me? You repeatedly poisoned my medicine back then, then arranged for an assassination after learning of Chen Ziqiu's defeat. Now you're so self-righteous as to send her daughter to me. Have you ever considered the consequences of your actions?"
Hearing Dong Zicheng's question, Aunt Mei exhaled a breath of foul air and actually laughed foolishly;
"So what? If it weren't for my lady, I would have died out there!"
Seeing the woman giving up struggling like this, Dongfang Han suddenly remembered the information Heishan had just given him. He suddenly put on a playful expression, looked at Aunt Mei pitifully, and asked in a contemptuous tone;
"Aunt Mei, do you know why your parents abandoned you?"
Aunt Mei did not show any emotion in response to the question from the person in front of her.
He had already learned from the news that Dongfang Han came from a hermit family, but what she didn't expect was that Dong Zicheng and the others would become so close to the Jiang and Fu families. In her mind, this was her biggest negligence.
This was the first time she made eye contact with Dongfang Han, but there was still no trepidation or fear in the woman's eyes. She even sneered and answered slowly.
"They favored boys over girls. In order to support their precious little son, they sold me to human traffickers. If I hadn't taken advantage of their laxity and escaped, I don't know what my life would have been like!"
This answer was expected by everyone, after all, it was different from their previous investigation.
But later, when Heishan cooperated with Wilding to review Helian Rui's case, he found that it was not such a coincidence that Chen Ziqiu met Aunt Mei that year.
Apart from Wilding and Dongfang Han, no one else knew about this matter, so when Dongfang Han mentioned it, they all looked confused and didn't understand.
But thinking of the surprise Dongfang Han had brought them when interrogating Helian Rui before, no one interrupted and just watched Dongfang Han's performance silently.
The man walked to the chair closest to Aunt Mei and sat down, legs crossed, and continued to ask indirect questions;
"Oh? Have you ever thought about why those traffickers let down their guard against you, and why your parents, who cared so much about you before, suddenly changed their attitude?"
Aunt Mei, who knew how to judge the situation and always looked at Chen Ziqiu and Helian Rui's expressions before acting, clearly understood the implication of Dongfang Han's words at this moment.
"What do you mean?"
Not understanding what was going on, he questioned harshly, but his eyes were filled with utter disbelief, and everyone noticed his apprehensive suspicion.
Dongfang Han did not let the woman go because of the trembling in her voice. He looked up at his subordinate Heishan, motioned him to take the previous information, and then threw it to the woman without mercy.
"Let me show you something!"
As she finished speaking, the detailed past of the investigation was presented to the woman. It was unclear whether it was to satisfy the curiosity of others present, or to stimulate Aunt Mei who was on the verge of collapse.
Ding Yi walked to the side of the stage and thoughtfully displayed the information on the big screen in the venue.
From the densely packed text, everyone understood the meaning of Dongfang Han's posturing.
Originally, Aunt Mei's family lived in a small mountain village near Country A. When she was 7 or 8 years old, a younger brother was added to the family. As the boy grew up, the pressure of life in the originally happy family gradually increased.
My father went out to work, and my mother took care of everything in and out of the house.
But the good times didn't last long. Her father suddenly returned home and his attitude towards her changed drastically. Aunt Mei initially thought that it was just because of the pressure of life and that it was normal to have emotions.
It was not until her father took her away from the village on the pretext of reducing her mother's burden that she realized how wrong it was, but it was too late.
When she saw this, Aunt Mei's expression remained calm. This was no different from what she knew, and it was indeed what happened that year. However, after looking into the reasons that Heishan had investigated, she could no longer maintain the calmness on her face.
After being sent to the hands of the bad guys, Aunt Mei's hatred for her parents and brother reached its peak, and she stubbornly believed that what she knew was the truth.
But what he didn't know was that it was not her father who was so cruel as to abandon her. Instead, Helian Rui found her father and took the initiative to propose to adopt Aunt Mei as his daughter, and promised to provide her with a life and conditions of food and clothing.
Knowing Aunt Mei's character at that time very well, although she was not very old, if he told her the real reason, she would definitely not give up her brother and parents. In the end, the father's cruel eyes staged a drama just to dispel Aunt Mei's concerns. Even if he hated them, it didn't matter. It was enough to let his daughter live a good life.
But what was unexpected was that after those people took her away, Helian Rui checked the girl's blood type again and found that it was not what he had originally investigated.
He originally wanted to adopt Aunt Mei so that he could raise her up and have her and Chen Zirong give birth to a girl. To be on the safe side, he tried his best to find someone with the same blood type as the Jiang and Fu families. Chen Ziqiu was adopted because she had the same blood type as the Fu family, and the Jiang family had the rare RH negative panda blood for generations.
I thought Aunt Mei was the same, but the result was disappointing.
So, the gangsters deliberately relaxed their guard and let the little girl go inadvertently, but they did not expect that by such a coincidence, Chen Ziqiu took the girl back inadvertently.
But Helian Rui did not hide this matter and told Chen Ziqiu everything, but unexpectedly, she still wanted to keep the girl by her side.
The young girl posed no burden or threat to Helian Rui, so he finally agreed to her wishes.
After all, Aunt Mei's parents and younger brother had all been killed by the man to prevent future troubles.
After understanding the whole story, Aunt Mei seemed to have lost her last support. Her eyes lost focus and she stood there in a daze for a long time without coming to her senses.
