Chapter 61: The Mastermind
Lin Zhenzhu saw that she was young and might be temporarily lost, and she didn't want to really ruin her, so she made a promise to her.
"Xiao Lan, as long as you tell me the whole story, I won't hold you responsible."
With Lin Zhenzhu's promise, Xiaolan plucked up her courage and decided to tell everything.
"It was Miss Yang who asked me to trick Miss Yingbao into going to the lotus pond."
"Miss Yang? Which Miss Yang?"
"It was Miss Yang Xiaoyun. She gave me some money and asked me to trick Miss Yingbao into going to the lotus pond, saying that she had something to tell her. I thought she really had something to tell Miss Yingbao, so I helped her. I really don't know why Miss Yingbao fell into the lotus pond."
Lin Zhenzhu was surprised to hear the name Yang Xiaoyun. She always thought she was a kind and good child. I didn't expect that she was so cunning? Was it her who pushed Zhao Jiaying into the water? Why did she do that?
"Zi Chen, what do you think about this matter? Could it be that Yang Xiaoyun pushed Ying Bao into the lotus pond?" Lin Zhenzhu asked.
Ou Zilong: "No need to think, it must be her. I have said long ago that this woman is not simple. Today, Ying Bao said in public that my brother has a wife, and my brother also denied their previous affair in front of everyone, so she held a grudge and attacked Ying Bao."
Ou Zichen remained silent and did not ask any questions. He would not make random guesses about anyone without solid evidence.
Shen Linghao took out the bracelet he picked up near the lotus pond, handed it to Lin Zhenzhu, and asked, "Grandma, do you recognize this necklace?"
Lin Zhenzhu took it and looked at it. It looked very familiar. Where had she seen it before? I couldn't remember it for a moment.
Lin Zhenzhu thought for a long time but couldn't answer. Shen Linghao continued to ask: "Is it from Aunt Yang Xiaoyun?"
Lin Zhenzhu picked up the bracelet and looked at it again, and suddenly remembered that she once saw Yang Xiaoyun's bracelet which was very special, so she asked her where she bought it. She said it was something her mother left her.
"Yes, yes, yes, I remember now, it belonged to Yang Xiaoyun. But how did this bracelet end up in your hands?"
"I picked this up on the path near the lotus pond. At that time, I saw Aunt Yang Xiaoyun walking by in a hurry. I guess she dropped it because she was too anxious. At that time, I thought she was just bored and came here for a walk. Now it seems that Ying Bao falling into the lotus pond may really be related to her..."
It was all his fault for being careless at the time. Fortunately, Zhao Jiaying was safe and sound, otherwise he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.
"This Yang Xiaoyun, I didn't expect her to be such a vicious person. It's a pity that I have always liked her so much."
After hearing what Shen Linghao said, Lin Zhenzhu was furious. She could already conclude that Zhao Jiaying was pushed into the water by Yang Xiaoyun.
She hated herself even more for being old and blurry-eyed and for misjudging Yang Xiaoyun. She actually allowed such a vicious woman to continue to appear in the Ou family and almost harmed her great-grandson Xiaojin.
Xiaolan suddenly remembered that some time ago, Yang Xiaoyun asked her for Zhao Jiaying's photo and school address.
Now I hear them say that Yang Xiaoyun is such a vicious woman. She must have done something bad last time when she asked for Zhao Jiaying's photo.
Since Lin Zhenzhu gave her the chance, she felt that this matter should not be hidden from them, so she decided to tell it.
"Madam, Mr. Ou, there is one more thing I want to tell you!"
"What's the matter? Tell me quickly." Lin Zhenzhu was really angry now.
"Some time ago, Miss Yang Xiaoyun asked me for Miss Yingbao's photo and her school address."
Ou Zichen quickly thought of Zhao Jiaying's kidnapping and asked, "Xiao Lan, do you remember when it happened?"
Xiaolan nodded: "I remember, it's June 10th."
The reason why Xiaolan remembered the date so clearly was because that was the day when payroll was paid.
On June 10th, which was before Zhao Jiaying was kidnapped, Ou Zichen wondered, could it be that Zhao Jiaying’s kidnapping was also the work of Yang Xiaoyun?
Just at this moment, Ou Zichen's phone rang. He took out his phone and saw that it was a call from Ma Liangyou, the director of the Public Security Bureau.
He quickly pressed the answer button: "Hello, Director Ma."
Ma Liangyou: "Hey, Major General Ou, I have good news to tell you. We have successfully arrested the criminal named Brother Qiang."
Ou Zichen: "Where is he now? Have you found out who is behind this?"
Ma Liangyou: "The people have been taken back to the Public Security Bureau. We got the news that Brother Qiang was hiding in a ruin in the eastern suburbs. When I took people there, another suspect was trying to assassinate Brother Qiang. Fortunately, we arrived in time, otherwise Brother Qiang would have been silenced. We took the two criminals back to the Public Security Bureau. After interrogation, Brother Qiang confessed that a woman named Yang Xiaoyun paid them 5 million to capture Miss Ou and silence her. The other suspect who assassinated Brother Qiang was also instructed by Yang Xiaoyun to assassinate Brother Qiang. I guess she was afraid that Brother Qiang would be caught and give her away, so she sent people to assassinate Brother Qiang."
The more Ou Zichen listened, the gloomier his expression became. It was indeed Yang Xiaoyun.
Ou Zichen now felt just like he did when he faced the terrorists, with all that angry aura surging out. If Yang Xiaoyun stood in front of him now, he was really afraid that he would lose control and tear her apart with his own hands.
Such anger was fleeting and he soon calmed down because he didn't want his relatives to see such a cold and cruel side of him. And Zhao Jiaying is also here, so I’m even more afraid that she will be scared.
Ou Zichen continued to reply to Ma Liangyou: "Okay, I get it. Thank you and your brothers for your hard work. I will come to the bureau to thank you in person someday. As for what to do next, you guys should handle it according to the law!"
Ma Liangyou: "Don't worry, Major General Ou, we know what to do."
Ou Zichen hung up the phone, and Ou Zilong asked hurriedly: "Brother, we found Brother Qiang, so do we know who is behind this?"
"It's Yang Xiaoyun."
Things have come to this point, there is no need to hide it from everyone, Ou Zichen told the truth.
Lin Zhenzhu was so surprised that she staggered back and almost fell. Fortunately, Liu Lanzhi beside her supported her in time.
"Ma'am, are you okay?"
Lin Zhenzhu waved her hand: "I'm fine, don't worry!"
"This Yang Xiaoyun, her conscience has been eaten by dogs. She actually did such a heartless thing. Why doesn't God take her away? Let her stay in this world and harm people." Lin Zhenzhu said angrily.
Ou Zilong: "Grandma, haven't you heard this saying? Good people don't live long, but evil people live for thousands of years. You want to wait for God to take Yang Xiaoyun away, it's difficult..."
After hearing what Ou Zilong said, Lin Zhenzhu became even more angry. What about the saying that good people don't live long and evil people live for thousands of years? It's simply bullshit.
Then she put on an air of Madam She and said, "Since God won't punish her, I, Lin Zhenzhu, will punish her myself today!"
