I stood there in the bushes, half a ghost, my eyes wide with horror.
In order to prevent my identity from being detected, they actually cooked my body?
I know without thinking that only Qiao Zhixian can move my body.
But I never expected her to be so vicious!
In the second half of the night, Captain Li gathered his troops and went down the mountain with his group in frustration.
Along the way, Zhou Bingchen let me walk in front, while he followed behind in silence.
When we returned to the hotel, the sky was already turning pale.
When Jiang Xi saw us come back, she hurried back to the hospital to see Mother Jiang.
Chenchen was still sleeping soundly in the bedroom.
Zhou Bingchen and I sat in the living room, looking at each other in silence.
After a long while, I organized my words and wanted to ask him why he gave me the Zhou family's property?
But he spoke first, looking me straight in the eye, and said seriously, "Do you want to take back your property?"
"Of course, otherwise why would I leave it to that bastard couple?"
I find it a little funny. Does he still think that I will be soft-hearted towards Ji Linting?
Seeing my decisive answer, Zhou Bingchen's expression relaxed a little, as if relieved, and added: "Then I'll help you!"
I didn't expect that even though I hadn't sold my body... or should I say, my corpse, this guy actually offered to help me. I felt a little embarrassed.
Things are moving fast.
Within half an hour, Ji Linting found his lawyer friend.
When Lawyer Zhang saw me, he nodded politely, as if he was no stranger to me.
Although I was a little confused, I still sat down and seriously inquired about the possibility of getting back all the assets currently under Ji Linting's name.
Also, can the two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment that Ji Linting bought for my parents, and the large flat that he bought for my brother, be recovered?
Lawyer Zhang turned the pen in his hand around, then looked up and looked at me carefully.
I met his searching gaze through his cold, gold-rimmed glasses, feeling a little uneasy. "And... can I get back half of my property?"
Lawyer Zhang suddenly raised his voice, "How is that possible?"
I instantly wilted.
But the next second, what he said brought me back to life.
"Of course all the property that fell into the hands of this scumbag must be recovered. Not a single penny should be left to him!"
Lawyer Zhang spoke confidently and eloquently, looking at Zhou Bingchen, who was silent in contrast to him, with an expression of disappointment. "If I hadn't been stupid and had gone abroad, how could that scumbag have gotten that property?"
I was confused and didn't understand what he meant. I glanced at Zhou Binchen who had a sullen face.
He glanced at Lawyer Zhang with a sharp look, and Lawyer Zhang, who had originally had a rich expression, instantly became timid. He nodded quietly and made a zipper-like gesture on his mouth with his hand.
Is there some dark secret you're keeping from me?
Lawyer Zhang then took out a stack of documents from his briefcase in a businesslike manner and laid them out in front of me one by one.
He pointed to the name of the final donor on a property transfer agreement and said seriously, "When Mr. Zhou Bingchen drafted this agreement, the final donor was you, Miss Qiao Chuyuan!"
"Later, when you cancelled your identity, this property automatically became an inheritance and fell into the hands of your husband, no, your ex-husband."
"Now that you've returned alive, of course these properties must be returned to their original owners!"
As I listened to Lawyer Zhang's words, my eyes unconsciously fell on the four words "voluntary gift" on the agreement.
Unknown emotions spread in my heart. Touch, surprise, and a throbbing that seemed to penetrate my soul gathered into a ball and blocked my heart, unable to express it.
I looked at Zhou Bingchen, who was still pretending to be deep, and wanted to get his explanation, to explain why he wanted to give me this huge fortune for free?
But he didn't even look at me.
Lawyer Zhang glanced at Zhou Bingchen, who didn't refute his answer, then turned to me and continued with high spirits, "As for everything your brother and parents bought with your ex-husband's money, of course it belongs to you. Without your consent, they must return it."
Hearing this, I couldn't help but take my eyes off Zhou Bingchen and nodded excitedly.
I thought this news was enough to make my blood boil.
But I didn’t expect that what Lawyer Zhang said next would make me so excited that I became incoherent.
"Not only can your brother and parents' house be recovered, but all the money he spent on your mistress and your illegitimate daughter over the years can also be recovered!"
For a moment, it seemed as if countless fireworks were exploding in my mind. I excitedly stepped forward, shook Lawyer Zhang's hand, and thanked him repeatedly.
Lawyer Zhang was so startled by my sudden grab of his hand that he leaned back and immediately looked at Zhou Binchen for help.
However, I was completely unaware of Zhou Bingchen's increasingly gloomy expression. All I could think about was the Qiao family and the scene of Ji Linting wandering the streets with my sister and children.
Just when I was about to faint from excitement, Lawyer Zhang's words were like a pour of cold water on me, completely cooling my excitement.
Lawyer Zhang pulled back my tightly grasped hand, pushed his glasses up from his nose, and said confidently, "Don't worry. This case will go through the prosecution process, and I can help you recover your property in as little as three months."
My whole body froze and I sat down dejectedly again.
Three months?
If I had waited another three months, I would have been found dead and reduced to ashes.
Judging from last night's search, apart from the severed hand left on the asphalt road, the rest of my body tissues have probably been cooked and cannot be identified.
