When Chu Ci saw that Chu Yu didn't call her "Mom" and even accused her, she angrily shook off Chu Yu's hand and scolded her through gritted teeth: "Am I being unreasonable? Zhao Hongsheng and Xinmeng are both unconscious here, and you are the only one standing here awake. There are talismans all around you. You must have done something to them. You are a jinx. Every time I get close to you, misfortune will happen. You shouldn't have come back."
In the past, hearing such words would have made Chu Yu heartbroken, but now all she saw was indifference and disgust: "Ms. Chu, I think you are not only blind but also heartless. You judged me to be wrong without even understanding the situation. I can sue for false accusation and defamation."
Chu Ci's expression changed, and she was about to scold her when a maid rushed over to report, "Madam, the police have arrived."
Chu Ci was startled and turned around to see several policemen walking in from outside.
It was Chu Yu who reported it to the police earlier.
The police captain in charge glanced at Chu Ci, showed his badge, and said seriously, "The police have received a report that Zhao Hongsheng committed murder and buried the body, and that Chu Xinmeng spread rumors and harmed people. We are now taking these two suspects back for questioning."
Chu Ci's face turned deathly pale instantly. She asked incredulously, "Could you have made a mistake?"
The policeman replied coldly, "Our colleagues have already checked Zhao Hongsheng's villa and found a female corpse in the villa's garden."
"ah!"
Chu Ci gasped in surprise. She turned to look at the unconscious Zhao Hongsheng and almost fainted from anger.
She had always thought highly of this future son-in-law, but she never expected that he would be involved in a murder case.
Since Zhao Hongsheng and Chu Xinmeng were both unconscious, the police decided to send them to the hospital for treatment first, and then interrogate them after they woke up.
Chu Yu, as a party present at the scene, was taken to the police station to give a statement.
When giving her statement, Chu Yu naturally couldn't reveal that Mo Xiaorou had become a vengeful ghost. She only said that Zhao Hongsheng went insane after killing someone and dreamed that Mo Xiaorou was seeking revenge. So he asked a Taoist priest to perform a ritual, but during the ritual, Zhao Hongsheng revealed that he had cheated on his wife and killed her. Chu Xinmeng got angry and fought with him, and in the end, they were both injured.
The police also summoned Master Wufang and his companions to the police station for questioning. Master Wufang and the others dared not tell the truth and chose to give the same account as Chu Yu.
After giving her statement, Chu Yu left the police station late at night, and the outside world was deserted.
Chu Yu took out her phone, intending to call a ride-hailing service to go home, when a black luxury car suddenly drove up from the opposite direction and stopped in front of her.
The car door opened, and Chu Ci got out of the car.
She had wronged Chu Yu before, but she was too embarrassed to apologize to her, so she looked a little awkward.
Chu Yu glanced at her coldly, turned and walked away. Chu Ci's face darkened, and she immediately called out to her, "Stop right there!"
Chu Yu stopped in her tracks, turned around and looked at her coldly, asking, "Ms. Chu, what do you want?"
Chu Ci was somewhat displeased by her attitude, but she held back, after all, she had misunderstood her before. Her tone softened a bit: "Get in the car. It's too late today, so don't go home. Come back to the Chu family with me first."
Chu Yu didn't want to have any contact with her, nor did she want to go back to the Chu family. She sarcastically refused, "No need. You should go to the hospital to see your good daughter and good son-in-law."
With those words, she turned and left.
Chu Ci was furious as she watched Chu Yu's resolute departure.
...
Two days later, the trials of Chu Xinmeng, Zhao Hongsheng, and Mo Xiaorou concluded.
Zhao Hongsheng was imprisoned for murder and burying the body; he faces the death penalty.
Chu Xinmeng was fined and detained for half a month for spreading rumors and defamation and maliciously damaging the reputation of others.
Her actions were exposed, and she was met with a barrage of criticism online. Her pure image as a ballet champion collapsed instantly, and her reputation was ruined.
Zhao Hongsheng was mentally confused due to the excessive fright he experienced that night, while Chu Xinmeng was also in poor mental condition and listless.
Upon learning this, Chu Yu felt pleased, for karma is a cycle, and evil will be punished.
After the case was closed, Xiao Mei, the customer service representative of the Underworld Group, sent a message to Chu Yu, telling her that Mo Xiaorou had reunited with her sister in the Underworld, and the two sisters had resolved their misunderstandings.
Because Mo Xiaorou was able to pull back from the brink in time and the court made an exception, allowing her and Mo Xiaoyu to be reincarnated together.
To thank Chu Yu, Mo Xiaoyu gave her a five-star review.
Chu Yu opened the Netherworld Group, and her points increased by 70, and her merit increased by 70.
This delivery was more difficult than the last one, so I earned more merits and points.
Chu Yu was in a good mood. She took out the gold nugget that Mo Xiaoyu had given her from the drawer and went to the antique shop.
A gold nugget is much more valuable than gold. The one Chu Yu had was of good quality, and the antique shop asked for 700,000 yuan. After the transaction was completed, Chu Yu kept 10,000 yuan for himself and used the rest to pay off his debts.
The Fu family helped pay off half of the debt, but she didn't want to rely on them anymore and wanted to earn the money herself to pay off the other half.
...
Time flies, and before they knew it, it was time for Chu Yu and Fu Yunche to get their marriage certificate as agreed.
That morning, Fu Yunche drove to the Civil Affairs Bureau, where he and Chu Yu agreed to meet at ten o'clock.
Fu Yunche was sitting in the back seat of the car, reviewing a company document.
Since wearing the amulet given to him by Chu Yu, his mental state has improved significantly, and he has been lucid for longer periods of time. His medical team finds this transformation incredible.
Fu Yunche was surprised, and his impression of Chu Yu improved even more.
As the car passed a building, Song Ze suddenly remembered something and suggested, "Sir, there's a high-end makeup studio in this building. The makeup artists there are incredibly skilled, and many big stars go there because of their reputation. You'll be taking photos to get your marriage certificate later, so why don't you go get your makeup done?"
Fu Yunche looked up at him and said calmly, "No need. It's just getting a marriage certificate. Keep it simple."
