Chang You tightened his grip on the steering wheel consciously, and his knuckles turned white from the force.
He never thought that they had spent countless efforts and traveled around to investigate the car accident, but would accidentally uncover the truth when they were completely unprepared.
This truth, like a sudden storm, is too cruel and catches people off guard.
Chang You turned his head and looked at the co-pilot Zhou Yanchen with concern.
Zhou Yanchen's face was as pale as paper, his eyes were deep and empty, and his usual high spirits and vigor had completely disappeared, as if his soul had been taken away from him.
Chang You sighed secretly in his heart, how could the boss bear such a blow?
My own mother left me in this way.
If this was a vendetta, perhaps the boss would be willing to accept it.
But, this is the truth that makes people sad and distressed.
Just when Chang You was about to leave and try to comfort her, Zhou Yanchen's deep voice broke the silence in the car: "Chang You, you must let Qing Li know the cause of the accident."
He paused, looked out the window into the distance, and said in a more serious tone, "If she asks, tell her that we haven't found out yet."
"Okay, I'll remember that." Chang You replied softly.
Zhou Yanchen knew how painful and self-blaming Shen Qingli would be if she knew all this.
Chang You hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't help asking the question in his heart: "Boss, can this be hidden from Dr. Shen?"
"After all, if they want to plead guilty, the Public Security Bureau and the court will most likely notify Dr. Shen."
The car fell silent again. After a long while, Zhou Yanchen slowly closed his eyes and rubbed his temples tiredly: "It's okay to keep it a secret for as long as possible."
"I want her to be sad about these embarrassing things, at least... let her live a few more stable days."
Chang You didn't say anything else. He knew that Zhou Yanchen was in great pain at the moment.
…
Shen Qingli had just come back from outpatient work when Hannah pulled her aside and said, "Sister Xiaoli, the police just came and took your stepmother away!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingli frowned slightly and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"When did it happen? Did the police say why they took her away?"
Hannah shook her head. "I know. I was there at the time, and I heard about it from my colleagues afterwards."
Shen Qingli pondered in his heart, and his mind quickly flashed through the matter of Ren Wan and Shen Weiwei conspiring to kidnap the child, and he also wanted to see Ren Wan embezzling public funds from Shen Weiwei Group.
"Nana, thank you. I'll make a phone call first."
Shen Qingli came to a quiet corner of the hospital, avoiding the hustle and bustle of the crowds.
She took out her cell phone and called Zhou Yanchen.
The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.
Just as she was about to hang up, Zhou Yanchen's slightly tired voice finally came from the receiver: "Hello."
Shen Qingli keenly noticed that his voice was a little strange, "What's wrong with you, do you have a cold?"
Zhou Yanchen paused on the other end of the phone and quickly responded: "No, but I just talked too much. Do you have something to tell me?"
Shen Qingli bit her lower lip, hesitated for a moment and then said, "Well, I just heard from my colleagues that Ren Wan was taken away by the police. Was it because of a company matter? Or was it for some other reason?"
At this moment, Zhou Yanchen was standing in front of the French window in his office. The hustle and bustle of the city spread out beneath his feet, but his eyes fell into the distance, as if he was staring at some visible point.
"She was the mastermind behind the misappropriation of public funds due to company reasons, and now she is under investigation."
"Yes, I understand."
Zhou Yanchen continued, "That's fine, I'll hang up first."
"Wait!" Shen Qingli said hurriedly, "I also want to ask about the car accident. Have you investigated other causes?"
Zhou Yanchen took a deep breath and tried to calm his heart. "Not yet. After all, it's been too long, and the clues for the investigation are limited, so it's a bit troublesome to move forward."
"Don't worry, I'll tell you as soon as I have any news."
"Okay, thank you." Shen Qingli's voice was filled with gratitude.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Qingli stood there, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
Given Ren Wan's current physical condition, does she deserve the punishment she deserves?
Shen Qingli really wanted to know the truth about the car accident as soon as possible, but she was afraid to know it, fearing that the result would be beyond her expectations.
Suddenly, someone patted Shen Qingli on the shoulder.
She turned sideways and saw that it was Song Zhibo.
Song Zhikai asked, "What are you thinking about, Doctor Shen? You are so absorbed in your thoughts that you didn't even hear me calling you several times."
Shen Qingli smiled apologetically, "Excuse me, do you have something to talk to me about?"
"Well, I discussed it with my mother, and we decided to have the surgery."
"Although Dr. Shen, you told me that it is very useful, but if you let my mother stay with me even for a few more days, I am willing to do it."
Shen Qingli sighed softly: "Okay, since you have made up your mind, I will come up with a surgical plan as soon as possible."
"Okay, thank you Dr. Shen."
"You're welcome."
…
Ren Wan was taken into the interrogation room, and she said that she was only brought in for investigation because of embezzlement of public funds.
She had already thought of a plan to deal with the situation.
"Ren Wan, right?" the interrogator asked.
"yes."
Interrogator: "Do you know why we are here?"
Ren Wan thought they were just asking questions, so she said with a puzzled look on her face, "I know."
The interrogator looked at her coldly, "Do you really know or are you just pretending to know?"
Ren Wan's expression remained unchanged: "I really know what you are talking about."
Interrogator: "You know how many innocent lives you have lost because of your selfish desires."
Hearing this, Ren Wan's heart tightened. What did they mean?
What innocent lives?
"Ren Wan, we only give you this one chance. Do you want to confess or do you want us to throw the evidence in your face?"
Ren Wan was wondering in her heart, what did they mean by what they just said?
Suddenly, she thought of something. Could it be that they knew about the incident when she was a child?
Yes.
The interrogator's next words scared Ren Wan out of her wits.
"Do you know Liao Wei?"
Hearing this name, Ren Wan really started to get nervous.
Did they find him?
But, he is abroad, how could he be found?
And he had already changed his name.
Ren Wan was still pretending to be confused, "Who is Liao Wei? I have never heard of this name."
The interrogator raised his lips and said, "I think you are crying when you see the coffin. What we are most afraid of is people like you who are stubborn."
"Play the recording for her."
The moment the voice came out, it was like a sharp dagger, instantly penetrating all her disguises and defenses.
She seemed to have her soul sucked out of her in an instant.
