One hundred thousand or two hundred thousand? Isn't that simple?
Shen Jinghe stopped Wen Yan, who was about to run away: "I'll give you 180,000 yuan. Go and tell the old man this news."
"Who do you think you are, Shen Jinghe! Don't I have 180,000? I'll give you 180,000 and 1 mao. Go tell Dad this news."
"Get lost!" How dare you humiliate him with a penny? Are you crazy?
It seems she is completely unaware of the power of money.
"One million eight hundred thousand!"
"Heh, are you looking at me like that?"
Shen Jinghe gritted his teeth; he was determined to go head-to-head with Wen Yan today: "Eighteen million!"
Wen Yan's eyes widened!
[No, is Shen Jinghe out of his mind? Has he gone mad? But who would turn down 18 million?]
"make a deal!"
Shen Jinghe: Ha, money really is omnipotent.
Wen Yan: "Hehe, just kidding! I was lying to you. I'd be dishonest to take money that comes too easily. This is just at home and with me. Don't be so foolish in public, or people will think you're stupid and rich. Bye-bye!"
Shen Jinghe took a deep breath silently: Don't be angry, don't be angry, hitting someone is illegal.
As for Wen Yan, she disappeared without a trace long after she had tricked Shen Jinghe, so Shen Jinghe couldn't beat her up even if he wanted to.
In the end, Shen Jinghe had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to Shen Yuan's study alone.
When he knocked on the door, Shen Yuan didn't know who was standing outside.
Until he saw that it was him who pushed the door open and walked in... Shen Yuan's expression immediately changed from expressionless to surprised.
“Jinghe? You…” Shen Yuan was a little unaccustomed to it for a moment.
This was the first time in all these years that his second son had taken the initiative to knock on his door and appear before him.
"What do you need me for?"
"Um."
Not to mention Shen Yuan, even Shen Jing and himself felt very uncomfortable.
He hadn't had a calm and serious conversation with this person in front of him in so many years that he didn't know how to start the conversation.
Should I just throw my phone at him like I did when I was talking to Wen Yan?
But he's getting old, what if he can't handle it? I don't want to end up losing all his chat history.
Thinking it over, Shen Jinghe still felt it was better for him to speak first.
"I've come here because there's something I'd like to discuss with you."
"Sit down and let's talk." As he spoke, Shen Yuan even went behind Shen Jinghe and pulled out a chair for him.
Shen Jinghe became even more uncomfortable: "No need, I'll leave after I finish speaking."
Shen Jinghe glanced at Shen Yuan inadvertently and suddenly noticed that Shen Yuan had a few strands of white hair at his temples.
When he was a child, his hair was completely black.
So many years have passed in the blink of an eye.
These past few years... never mind, Shen Jinghe reminded himself not to think about those things, the important thing right now is to focus on the important matters.
"Here's the thing... So, I need your help. Please consider whether it's possible."
Shen Yuan had never intended to let Wu Peng and Zhao Jing go, and now that he had the opportunity to uncover other crimes they were guilty of, he naturally wouldn't let the opportunity pass.
"No need to think about it anymore. Give me that reporter's contact information, and I'll contact him personally to find out what's going on."
“Okay.” Shen Jinghe knew that the old man would definitely be able to get this done. Judging from his confident look, those fraudsters were definitely not going to have a good time.
That evening.
Shen Yuan and Su Yang tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.
Finally, Shen Yuan couldn't help but say to Su Yang, "Wife, you'll never guess what good thing happened today!"
Su Yang shook her head: "I really can't think of that. Why don't you just tell me?"
Shen Yuan, who usually doesn't smile even when he completes a multi-billion dollar project, now spoke with obvious excitement:
"Honey! Our son added me on WeChat today, and he even came to my study to find me! This is the first time in all these years, isn't that a good thing?"
"Really?" Su Yang immediately realized that Shen Yuan was referring to Shen Jinghe.
Her eyes lit up immediately after hearing the good news, even though she had been feeling down.
"What does he want with you?"
"It's some clues about Wu Peng and Zhao Jing. Didn't I tell them before that the three siblings should stop getting involved in this matter and that I would handle it alone? He came to me today to report on the situation."
“Although he didn’t come to see me specifically, I think it’s a good sign that our relationship is breaking down. At least he’s still willing to communicate with me and trusts me from the bottom of his heart.”
“Yes,” Su Yang sighed, “Jinghe has always regarded his father as an omnipotent god since he was a child, and he trusts you a lot. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have done that after you chose Jingxiu back then… Sigh, never mind, let’s not bring that up again.”
As Su Yang spoke, she gently leaned on Shen Yuan's shoulder.
"Although the fake Zhirou incident was heartbreaking, the three children in the family have actually grown closer while investigating it, which I never expected. But what I didn't expect even more was that Jinghe actually came to see you today. Honey, what do you say..."
At this point, Su Yang couldn't help but choke up again: "Don't you think this is a case of 'a blessing in disguise'?"
"I think it should count." In the darkness, Shen Yuan gradually frowned.
By now, he had enough money. But he was still clueless about Zhirou's matter.
I thought I had found my daughter again, but who knew...
But his wife was right; every cloud has a silver lining.
He will continue to search for the child he can't find, and it's also a happy thing that the children in the family are getting along better and better!
"By the way," Shen Yuan changed the subject, "the third and fourth brothers also know about the fake Zhi Rou. We've essentially handed the third brother over to the country; whether he can come back, and when he can come back, is beyond his control. But Jing Chuan will be back soon. So, does this news make you a little happier?"
Su Yang chuckled: "What's so great about that little brat coming back? As long as he doesn't cause me any trouble, that's enough."
Even so, Su Yang's tone became noticeably lighter as she spoke.
That night, the couple slept well, something they rarely do.
-
The power that Shen Yuan could unleash was far greater than Shen Jinghe and Wen Yan had imagined.
In the shortest possible time, the cross-provincial joint investigation team obtained evidence of Wu Peng and Zhao Jing's crimes.
Investigations and evidence gathering by relevant departments in multiple locations revealed that Chai Zhaodi was sold to a remote mountainous area in H province by a local criminal gang, A.
Although Wu Peng and Zhao Jing were not directly involved in Chai Zhaodi's transaction, they bought Chai Zhaodi and Ni Sanshui's daughter, Ni Yatou.
And this girl, Ni, is actually the fake Shen Zhirou.
She was one of the many children 'adopted' by Wu Peng and Zhao Jing.
Because of her outstanding appearance, she had been assisting Wu Peng and Zhao Jing in their fraudulent activities.
Until one day they saw Su Yang's photo online and found that Ni Yatou and Su Yang looked six or seven points alike. And just then, Su Yang and Shen Yuan lost another daughter.
