The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't say a word along the way. After returning home, Li Ruhui looked much older, almost instantly.
"Wangshu, come in with mom. Mom wants to talk to you."
Li Ruhui seemed to have made some decision and led Zheng Wangshu into the bedroom. After entering, Li Ruhui asked Zheng Wangshu to sit on the sofa and spoke after a long while.
"Wangshu, what they said is actually true. You're not even thirty yet, and you still have a lot of life ahead of you. Although Mom is reluctant to let you go, she also doesn't want to trap you. That would be too selfish. If you find someone suitable, go ahead and find one. We can take care of the children. Even if you get married, all four children will be yours. You can raise them by yourself, or we can help you raise them. No matter what you do, we support you."
Although Li Ruhui was angry and quarreled with others, she could not delay Zheng Wangshu.
She was so young, was she going to be a widow for the rest of her life? Her own son had found someone else outside, and she had left her children behind, completely devoted to the so-called true love.
As elders, they cannot morally blackmail Zheng Wangshu.
Zheng Wangshu felt complicated after hearing what his mother-in-law said. He had guessed that Zhou Jingchuan had his own difficulties, but his mother-in-law and the others did not understand. They just thought that their son was too stubborn and had become an ungrateful person.
"I won't remarry. If I find another man, will he be good to the child? I can't take the risk. At worst, I'll just live alone. With your support, I can get by."
Zheng Wangshu couldn't tell her mother-in-law directly. She guessed that the old man should also know about this, but because of some confidentiality, he couldn't tell his family, otherwise it would be easy for others to find out.
So she could only make her position clear that she would never leave this home.
Li Ruhui couldn't help but choke up.
"Mom, I'm sorry. Who knew this bastard would suddenly change his heart? I used to think I had done a good job educating my two sons and that they were both responsible. Now that I think about it, I really took myself too seriously."
Li Ruhui had so much pain in her heart that she couldn't express it. Her hair turned white in just a few days, purely out of worry.
Zhou Jingxing and his friends even approached Zhou Jingchuan privately, but Zhou Jingchuan was determined and refused to repent.
That's why Li Ruhui was completely disappointed with Zhou Jingchuan.
"Mom, you've always been so kind to me. I remember it all in my heart. Don't be too sad. Life must go on."
Zheng Wangshu couldn't bear it anymore, thinking that if Zhou Jingchuan didn't hurry up, his parents would be mad to death if he continued like this.
Zhou Jingchuan was also anxious. He was like a headless fly in Zhang's house every day, and he dreamed of finding something to hold against Zhang Jianbin.
That day, Zhang Huizi took the opportunity to drag Zhou Jingchuan into her bedroom. Zhou Jingchuan wanted to turn around and leave, but when he glanced, he saw the tiles on the wall of Zhang Huizi's bedroom.
For some reason, Zhou Jingchuan suddenly calmed down. He had searched the entire Zhang family, and the only place left was Zhang Huizi's bedroom, because he had always avoided it to avoid suspicion.
Is it possible that those things were hidden in Zhang Huizi's bedroom?
Zhou Jingchuan tried to remain calm and patted the back of Zhang Huizi's hand.
"Keiko, are you sweating? Go take a shower."
Zhang Huizi's cheeks suddenly turned red. She had just taken a shower yesterday, so why did she smell today?
Zhang Huizi stammered, "I...I'll go right away."
After she left, Zhou Jingchuan hurried to knock on the tiles. After a few knocks, his eyes lit up and he realized that there was something fishy. He locked the door, took out tools from his body, and tried to pry up the tiles, only to find that they soon became loose.
After taking one of the pieces out, Zhou Jingchuan's pupils suddenly shrank. It was full of banknotes, and in addition to banknotes, there were also gold bars. Zhang Jianbin not only embezzled money, but also leaked state secrets.
With this evidence, it was enough to beat him to death.
Even if there is no progress in other areas, the amount of corruption by an official is enough to make a living.
Afraid of being discovered by Zhang Huizi, Zhou Jingchuan hurriedly reinstalled the tiles, then left a note and went out.
When Zhang Huizi came out of the shower, she thought Zhou Jingchuan would do that kind of thing to her today. But when she returned to the bedroom, she found that Zhou Jingchuan had left in time because of an emergency and said he would come back in the evening.
Zhang Huizi was deflated, thinking that since they were going to get the marriage certificate anyway, it didn't matter if they waited a few days.
At this time, Zhou Jingchuan had already reported the news to his superiors, who then split their forces into two groups: one to arrest Zhang Jianbin and the other to search Zhang's house.
Zhang Huizi waited for a long time, but what came was the Discipline Inspection Commission and the Public Security Bureau.
Under Zhou Jingchuan's leadership, they pried open the tiles in Zhang Huizi's bedroom and discovered an entire wall filled with money, including several boxes of gold bars.
Zhang Huizi was dumbfounded. She never knew there was so much money in her home, especially in her bedroom.
Zhang Huizi looked at Zhou Jingchuan, "Jingchuan, what's going on? Where's my dad? I want to find my dad!"
At this time, Zhang Jianbin was also brought in. When he realized something was wrong, he wanted to escape, but he had no chance at all.
After returning home and looking at the wall full of banknotes, his face turned completely pale. He knew that he was finished.
Seeing Zhou Jingchuan standing with the people from the Discipline Inspection Commission, what else did Zhang Jianbin not understand?
He had felt that something was wrong with Zhou Jingchuan before, and even set up a trap to test him, but Zhou Jingchuan remained so patient.
But no matter how others asked, Zhang Jianbin just kept silent. Now the higher-ups had long wanted to deal with him. Could he save himself by keeping silent? That was impossible.
The person was taken away immediately, and the rest stayed to take photos and record the situation.
Zhang Huizi looked at Zhou Jingchuan with tears streaming down her face.
"Zhou Jingchuan, how could you do this to me? What are you doing here? Are you investigating my dad?"
Zhang Huizi was not innocent either. She knew what her family situation was like, but Zhang Jianbin was her biological father, and she had benefited from it, so she naturally turned a blind eye.
Now that her father had been arrested, she could imagine what kind of consequences awaited their family.
Zhou Jingchuan had a cold face and didn't say a word. He felt somewhat guilty in his heart. Zhang Huizi was a good person, and he did take advantage of her.
But when he was abroad, he also risked his life to save Zhang Huizi, so the two of them were even.
Seeing Zhou Jingchuan didn't say anything, Zhang Huizi became even more devastated.
"Are we still getting married in a few days? What about our wedding?"
She still had one last hope.
Zhou Jingchuan spoke this time, "I'm sorry, this is all due to the mission."
Zhang Jianbin was arrested, and Zhang Huizi also had to cooperate with the investigation. They are a family and there are many entanglements between them.
However, Zhang Jianbin still had a conscience and did not involve the children.
When Zhou Jingchuan returned to report, his leader held his hand tightly.
"Xiao Zhou, I'm sorry for making you suffer."
