Chapter 81 Exposed

"Impossible!"

Being so close, Xu Meifeng of course saw the headline clearly, and her first reaction was disbelief. When she spoke, Wen Jiaxin, who was sitting next to her, could no longer sit still. She stood up suddenly, reached out and grabbed the newspaper, and quickly browsed the content of the report.

The report was not long, but it said a lot of inside information, such as She's Real Estate looked OK in scale, but in fact, because the boss was a gambler, the company had already lost money, and the debt ratio was far more outrageous than the published figures.

Yes, yes, there are still problems with the company's accounts.

Because of this, the boss of She's Real Estate attaches so much importance to the resort project and is counting on it to make a comeback.

Although She's Real Estate was on the brink of death, if they had seized this opportunity, it would have been possible to turn things around. However, the boss of She's Real Estate was a bad guy, and he went to Las Vegas as soon as the down payment was deposited.

The photos posted in the report included a description of the debt ratio in She's Real Estate's real account book, and a photo of Mr. She gambling in Las Vegas with a rosy face.

While reading the report, Wen Jiaxin's face changed several times, from white to blue to red and then back to white. Gradually, her hands began to tremble, and she looked up at Wen Rongsheng who was sitting at the top: "Dad, what's going on? Didn't you say that this resort project would definitely be profitable? Why..." Why are they going to fail before the project even started?

Before Wen Jiaxin finished speaking, Xu Meifeng, who was reading the report beside her, shook her head and said, "Impossible! This report must be fake. That's hundreds of millions of dollars. How could it be lost in just a few days?"

As a member of the second wife, Wen Jiaqi certainly didn't like the mother and daughter of the third wife. Hearing this, she covered her mouth and giggled, "It's common to win or lose millions in a game in the casino. This is Macau gambling. In the casino, Americans gamble in US dollars. Is it strange to lose hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars in a few days? Third mother, don't be too sad. Although you have lost all your fortune, daddy is here and he will definitely not let you sleep on the street. "

The second half of the last sentence is actually nonsense. Xu Meifeng is the third wife of the Wen family. Of course, she would not sleep on the street. Wen Jiaqi said this just to point out the fact that she lost all her fortune.

Upon hearing this, Xu Meifeng and her daughter's faces turned even uglier. Wen Jiaxin was about to burst into tears. She walked up to Wen Rongsheng, grabbed his arm and said, "Dad, say something! It was you who said this project could make a profit, so I let Mommy invest so much money. And now, what's the result?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Meifeng looked at Wen Rongsheng hopefully, hoping that he could make the decision for her. She didn't want more, but at least he wanted her to get back the 100 million she invested.

The mother and daughter did not expect that Wen Rongsheng would just gently pull Wen Jiaxin's hand away and say, "This project can indeed be profitable if it can be successfully opened."

Wen Jiaxin felt that her father was really talking without any pain in his waist, but she did not dare to directly accuse Wen Rongsheng, so she could only stamp her feet and say, "That She surnamed gambled away all the investment, how can the project be started!"

The people who invested in this project were not really rich. Before, they did not know that She surnamed could do such a thing, and they were willing to invest because they thought the project was good. Now that they know that She surnamed is unreliable, who is willing to continue to invest in this project?

Without money, this project cannot be started, let alone profitable.

Wen Jiaxin didn't dare to continue to push Wen Rongsheng, so she could only put her hands together and said in a begging gesture: "Daddy, please help me and Mommy. You know so many people, you can definitely help us get the money back, right?"

But before Wen Rongsheng could speak, Wen Jiaqi couldn't help it: "Hearing what you said, if I didn't know, I would think that the casino was opened by Daddy, and returning the money to you is just a matter of words. And help you get the money back, why don't you just ask Daddy to do it directly? Why don't you just make up for the money you lost in your investment?"

After arguing with the other person, she also called "Daddy" coquettishly, and said, "You can't be partial and only give money to the third room! Otherwise, I will make a scene, and it will be useless even if you threaten to kick me out!"

Hearing this, Wen Rongsheng turned his head to look at Wen Jiaxin and said, "Did you hear everything?"

Wen Jiaxin hated Wen Jiaqi to death in her heart, and she also felt a little regretful. If she had known that the second room would be behind the scenes, she should not have said these to Daddy in front of them.

But now that it's come to this, if she gives up now, it will be even harder to speak later, so she can only grit her teeth and say, "Dad, the situation of our third room is different from their second room. We really lost money."

Xu Meifeng is usually a very patient person. In this case, she would definitely persuade Wen Jiaxin to talk to Wen Rongsheng privately.

But suddenly knowing that they lost 100 million, and this 100 million is their entire fortune, even the most patient people will have a short circuit in their brains. Xu Meifeng is like this now. She didn't think there were other options at all. She followed Wen Jiaxin's words and said, "Yes, Rongsheng, just help us. If you hadn't said that this project can make a profit, I wouldn't have invested all my money in it."

"Third sister, this is where you are wrong," Chen Baoqin said in a controlled manner, "Investment is almost like gambling. Even if it is a project invested by Rongsheng himself, not many can actually make a profit. If you are reluctant to spend money, don't get involved. If you lose after participating, don't blame others. It's really rude of you to be like this now."

Wen Rongsheng asked more directly, "Are you blaming me?"

Xu Meifeng, who had already been embarrassed by what Chen Baoqin said, panicked when she heard it and quickly denied, "No, no, how could I blame you?"

After that, I tried to reflect on myself, "Think about it, what my second sister said is actually right. When it comes to investment, you have to accept the loss if you are willing to. I lost this time, I can't blame others."

Wen Jiaxin was not as stubborn as Wen Jiaqi, she quickly saw the situation, suppressed her reluctance and said: "Mommy is right, we were indeed impulsive this time, we shouldn't blame others."

Wen Rongsheng said: "But you can blame me."

The four women in the restaurant were stunned when they heard this, but Wen Rongsheng didn't care, and continued: "This project can indeed make a profit, but the premise is that She's Real Estate can be kicked out." Before the mother and daughter of

the second room understood what this meant, Wen Jiaxin's voice came out: "Dad, you already knew that people with the surname She are good at gambling?"

"Everyone in Hong Kong should know about this."

This statement is a bit exaggerated. After all, there are still many people in Hong Kong who don't know the boss of She's Real Estate, but it is very realistic if the scope is limited to the wealthy circle in Hong Kong.

To put it more clearly, in fact, Wen Jiaxin and her daughter are both aware of the fact that the boss of She's Real Estate likes to gamble.

It's just that they think the resort project is the last chance he can seize, and he hasn't gambled for a long time. They think he can control himself.

And those who participate in the investment in the resort basically hold this idea.

Wen Rongsheng said: "I just don't believe he can change."

"Since you don't believe it, why let me and my mother invest?"

Wen Jiaxin was so active in encouraging Xu Meifeng to invest because she believed in Wen Rongsheng's judgment. She felt that if he reminded her, she would not care so much about this matter.

Xu Meifeng also wanted to ask why. Although she didn't know as much about business as Wen Jiaxin, she was much better than Wen Jiaxin in conspiracy and intrigue.

In addition, she knew Wen Rongsheng, so Wen Jiaxin was still confused, but she had already understood that this project was actually a trap set by Wen Rongsheng.

But she didn't understand why Wen Rongsheng set a trap for her. For money? But the money that the boss of She's Real Estate lost didn't go into his pocket.

And although they were not husband and wife in name, they had slept in the same bed for so many years and had two children. What kind of hatred and grudge could make Wen Rongsheng go to the trouble of weaving such a big net to harm her?

Could it be...

As soon as the thought came to her mind, Xu Meifeng shook her head and told herself in her heart that it was impossible!

Hou Xin is a coward, very afraid of death. He would not take the initiative to find Wen Rongsheng to inform others, nor would he disclose their conspiracy to murder Wen Kai to others. This is no different from revealing one's identity.

And if the matter is leaked, the media will definitely report it, and people in the wealthy circle will also know about it. But she has been back for so long, and no one has ever talked about this in front of her.

What's more, there is the mother and daughter of the second wife in the family. They have always been jealous of the third wife. If they knew what she had done, they would definitely be unable to hold back.

Thinking of this, Xu Meifeng felt as if she had missed something, but she couldn't think of it for a moment, so she put on the posture of a victim and asked Wen Rongsheng with red eyes: "Rongsheng, since you knew, why didn't you tell me and Jiaxin in advance? And let us transfer all the money at once? Did I do something wrong to make you angry?"

Most sentimental people are sympathetic to women, and Wen Rongsheng is just like that. Every time Xu Meifeng looked at him like this, he would soften his heart and agree to some of her over-the-line requests.

But this time, Wen Rongsheng only felt cold in his teeth.

Wen Rongsheng sat in a good position to have a panoramic view of the overall situation. As long as he wanted, the expressions and movements of anyone at the dinner table would not escape his eyes.

The changes in Xu Meifeng's facial expression just now were also taken in by him.

He knew that she must have thought of the conspiracy between her and Hou Xin to kill Wen Kai, and she might even have calculated the probability of the matter being exposed in her mind, and felt that it was close to zero, so she was relieved to put on the posture of a victim.

This woman... this woman...

Wen Rongsheng had to admit that no matter how much information he had found before, he really recognized this woman at this moment.

So Xu Meifeng's appearance did not soften Wen Rongsheng's heart. He looked straight into her eyes and said with disappointment: "I also want to ask you, have I not been good enough to you these years? Why did you kill my own son?"

Boom!

The four women at the dinner table except Wen Rongsheng were stunned.

When Chen Baoqin heard the word "son", she immediately thought of Wen Jiadong who was far away in England. She grabbed Wen Rongsheng's arm and asked, "What happened to Jiadong? He called me two days ago and he was fine. How could he..."

Chen Baoqin looked at Xu Meifeng, her eyes seemed to want to fight with her, but before she did anything, she heard Wen Rongsheng angrily said, "I'm talking about Akai."

Akai?

Wen Kai?

Chen Baoqin and Wen Jiaqi looked at each other, and both of them immediately gave up the fight and looked at the mother and daughter of the third room across the street with a bit of excitement.

Xu Meifeng looked flustered, as if a disaster was about to happen.

Wen Jiaxin, however, looked puzzled and a little angry: "Dad, what are you talking about? Didn't my second brother die after being kidnapped and murdered? What does it have to do with my mom?"

Wen Rongsheng, who had been relatively calm, could no longer control his emotions after hearing this question. He knocked on the dining table and raised his voice and said: "Ask your mom, who created the opportunity for the kidnappers twenty-two years ago? Who was it! Who conspired with Hou Xin to kill my son!"

Hearing the word "Hou Xin", Xu Meifeng, who had been planning to fight, was completely panicked. Tears welled up in an instant. She stepped forward to pull Wen Rongsheng's hand and said: "Rongsheng, I am innocent! I know Hou Xin, but I don't know what he did - ah!"

Before Xu Meifeng finished speaking, she Wen Rongsheng pushed her away and she fell to the ground: "You are still lying! If you don't know what Hou Xin did, your first reaction should be to ask him what he did, instead of saying that you are innocent!"

After her lie was exposed, Xu Meifeng was a little flustered, but she quickly came up with a way to make up for it. She tried to curry favor with Wen Rongsheng and said: "Rongsheng, yes, I knew that Hou Xin participated in the kidnapping of Wen Kai, but he threatened me to create the opportunity for them, and I didn't agree at all! I didn't conspire with him, Rongsheng, believe me, I really didn't do these things!"

Wen Jiaxin vaguely remembered the name Hou Xin, and through the conversation between Wen Rongsheng and Xu Meifeng, she guessed that he might be related to the kidnapping of Wen Kai. But she was still confused, not understanding how Xu Meifeng knew Hou Xin and how the other party would threaten her.

But Wen Jiaxin was very clear about one thing, her mother must not be involved in the murder of Wen Kai! Otherwise, not only would she not be able to inherit the Wen family, but their family would be finished. After

confirming this, Wen Jiaxin said, "I don't know the specific situation, but Dad, think about it, when the second brother got into trouble, Mom only thought of me. You have always valued your son. Even if the second brother is gone, with the eldest brother, the Wen family will not fall into our family. What is Mom doing all this for?"

"Of course she is after the Wen family's property!"

Wen Yue's voice suddenly rang in the restaurant. Several people looked towards the door and saw Wen Yue and Yi Huai walking in together.

Wen Jiaxin thought Wen Yue didn't hear what she just said, so she said, "I just said that when the second brother got into trouble, mommy was only pregnant with me, her only daughter. Even if the second brother got into trouble, the Wen family still has the eldest brother to inherit. Isn't this making things easier for others?"

Although Wen Jiaxin didn't directly drag the second room into the water, Chen Baoqin was not so stupid as to not hear such a low-level blame-shifting. She was so angry that she glared at Wen Jiaxin and said, "What do you mean? Do you think I killed Wen Kai? I swear here that if I do such a heinous thing, I will not die well in this life. Xu Meifeng, do you dare to swear?"

"I didn't say that. It was you who misunderstood," Wen Jiaxin just wanted to pass the buck, not to make an enemy, and quickly explained, "I just wanted to tell my second sister that my mother had no reason to do these things."

"Your mother was indeed pregnant with you as her only daughter at the time, but that doesn't mean she felt that she could only have you as her daughter in this life. She has tried many folk remedies for having children in the past years." Wen Yue's eyes swept over Xu Meifeng, who was sitting on the ground pretending to be pitiful, and she chuckled and said, "Of course, I don't know if it was retribution for her bad deeds or something else, but she really didn't give birth to the son she had always dreamed of."

"Indeed," Chen Baoqin remembered, "she has indeed tried many remedies for conceiving a child over the years."

Wen Jiaxin still didn't believe it: "Even if my mother tried remedies for conceiving a child, it can't prove that she killed my eldest brother. Everything requires evidence. My second sister has nothing. Dad, you can't believe her!"

Wen Jiaxin felt that Wen Rongsheng believed that her mother had killed Wen Kai because of Wen Yue's unfounded instigation. However, Wen Yue said, "If you want evidence, I will give it to you." After that, she

called housekeeper Xu and asked her to arrange for the servants to clear the table.

Not long after the meal started, Chen Baoqin saw the news that Mr. She lost hundreds of millions in Las Vegas and deliberately mocked Xu Meifeng, and then talked about this, so the few people at the table didn't eat much.

But at this time, no one cared about eating, and no one objected to clearing the table.

As soon as the dining table was clear, Wen Yue took the file bag from Yi Huai, opened it by pulling the white rope, and took out a photo and threw it on the dining table: "Your mother and Hou Xin's photo of graduating from elementary school."

Then threw out another photo: "Your mother and Hou Xin's photo when they were dating."

And another checkup sheet: "Your mother's pregnancy checkup sheet."

...

When Wen Yue threw the evidence on the dining table, Wen Jiaqi and Wen Jiaxin had been scrambling for evidence, but the latter was more and more shocked, while the former was more and more excited.

During this time, Wen Jiaqi did not forget to communicate with Chen Baoqin. Although she deliberately lowered her voice, the restaurant was so big that others could hear what they talked about without having to prick up their ears.

Amid the two people's muttering, Wen Jiaxin finally remembered who Hou Xin was.

Xu Meifeng also learned that Hou Xin was involved in another kidnapping case and was arrested after failing. With Hou Xin's arrest, their past could no longer be hidden.

But Xu Meifeng did not give up. She lowered her head and listened carefully to the evidence reported by Wen Yue, thinking about how she would defend herself later.

However, the evidence Wen Yue produced was more powerful than the last: "This is a photo of your mother meeting Hou Xin with a big belly on the eve of my brother's accident."

"This is a photo of Hou Xin and Zhao Zikun kidnapping my brother together."

"This is the record of your mother giving you an injection to induce labor the day before you gave birth."

"This is the testimony of the nurse who delivered you!" "

And this is the record of your mother using the hospital phone to call Hou Xin's residence when she was hospitalized. It was recorded before and after my brother was killed!"

Wen Yue slapped the paper records on the dining table, looked down at Wen Jiaxin and said, "Do you still dare to defend your mother in front of everyone and say that she has never done anything against the law?"

Wen Jiaxin couldn't say anything, she was almost dumbfounded. Forget about

the photos. As long as the photos are properly preserved after being developed, it is not a problem to store them for dozens or hundreds of years. But she couldn't figure out where Xu Meifeng's labor-inducing injection and call records came from?

The hospital receives so many patients every year, and no matter how big the archive room is, it can't store all the patient files received after its establishment. They will regularly process expired files.

Wen Jiaxin didn't know how long the file processing cycle was in the hospital where she was born, but even if those files were still there, how did Wen Yue find this record from the mountains of files?

Call records are kept for a shorter time. Even now, call records can only be checked for the past three to six months. More than 20 years ago... it's hard to say whether call records can be checked.

Wen Jiaxin was skeptical about the authenticity of this call record.

Obviously, Xu Meifeng was also skeptical. When she heard that there was a call record, she quickly got up from the ground, took the call record and started to look at it, hoping to find fake traces to break the deadlock.

But this call record is not what the mother and daughter imagined. Its layout is completely different from the call records that can be found now. There are only three important pieces of information: outgoing number, incoming number, and date and time.

After so many years, Xu Meifeng no longer remembers the phone number in the ward when she was hospitalized, and she can't remember Hou Xin's number either. She only remembers that he did live in Kowloon at the time, the phone number starts with 3, and there is an 8 in the number.

Although she can't remember the number clearly, Xu Meifeng remembers the time of several calls very clearly. When Wen Kai had an accident, they talked on the phone once the day before Wen Jiaxin was born, and they talked on the phone again on the third day.

Based on Wen Jiaxin's date of birth, Xu Meifeng can quickly calculate that the date and time on this record are correct.

How is it possible?

It was more than 20 years ago.

How could Wen Yue still find the record?

Seeing the expression on Xu Meifeng's face, Wen Jiaxin knew that this record was probably real, and she was also in disbelief, and asked: "Where did this record come from?"

Wen Yue said calmly: "I have my own channels." In fact, this record was made up by her according to what the system knew.

As for why she didn't forge it according to the real call record template, it was because Wen Yue felt that the more realistic the forgery was, the easier it would be for people to be suspicious.

Unlike the current version, which can be handed over directly to the police, if someone in the police has doubts, they can also explain that they found a staff member of the hospital or telephone company, and the other party happened to remember these calls. Although it's

a bit far-fetched, this kind of thing with an unknown source is also difficult to hand in as evidence, so it doesn't matter if it's a bit far-fetched.

In fact, this explanation is not that important. Anyway, if the police ask, she can just push it to "Mr. Tong" and pretend that she knows nothing.

For Xu Meifeng, the format is even less important. If she has not lost her memory, she will believe that this call record is real.

This can be seen from the expression on her face.

Among the pile of evidence that Wen Yue took out, several were things that Wen Rongsheng had never seen before. Now he stood up and looked at the evidence one by one.

The more he looked, the angrier he became. In the end, he acted faster than he thought. He raised his hand and threw the photos and documents in Xu Meifeng's face: "Let's see how you can make excuses!"

With a "thump", Xu Meifeng knelt on the ground, hugged Wen Rongsheng's legs and said, "I did create the opportunity for them, but I had no choice. Hou Xin kept threatening me with the fact that I had dated him and had a child with him. I was afraid that you would be disappointed in me and abandon me after knowing it, so I had no choice but to agree to his request."

Xu Meifeng's mind was working quickly. Wen Yue had enough evidence in her hands, and it was almost impossible for her to completely clear herself. She decided to admit to the lighter accusation, otherwise she would have to admit the serious one, and create a loving personality for herself: "I did all these things because I like you too much, Rongsheng!"

Wen Rongsheng was about to vomit after hearing this, and wanted to kick Xu Meifeng away, but she hugged him too tightly and he couldn't even lift his feet.

Seeing that Wen Rongsheng didn't move, Chen Baoqin thought he was about to soften his heart, and hurriedly said, "Third sister, please have some shame. You liked Rongsheng and killed his son. Your love is too terrible!"

Wen Jiaqi knew the principle of kicking a drowning dog, and hurriedly added insult to injury, saying, "That's right! I still remember how smart and sensible my second brother was when he was a child. He was such a good child, how could you have the heart to team up with others to kill him?"

Chen Baoqin didn't expect her daughter to have such a sudden inspiration, and she also echoed the emotion: "I remember that Akai performed at the school anniversary not long before the accident, and he played the piano. I still remember the song. It's called "To Alice", right?"

"Yes, I remember this too!" Wen Jiaqi nodded quickly, "I still remember that Jiadong and the second brother learned piano together, but Jiadong didn't have much talent, unlike the second brother. His teachers said that as long as he persisted, he might become a pianist in the future. Unfortunately..." Wen Jiaqi

glanced at Wen Yue while speaking, thinking that they were praising her own brother, didn't she intend to recall a few words along with them?

Wen Yue really didn't have such an intention. Even if she didn't mention that she didn't have the memory of her original body, even if she did, she probably wouldn't remember Wen Kai very much, after all, the original body was too young when he got into trouble. She

could also see that what Chen Baoqin and her daughter said was not out of concern. How could they feel sorry for Wen Kai's death? They were so happy that they set off firecrackers, okay? It was a pity that

Wen Yue was not the original body. If she was, the effect of what they said would be no different from stabbing the original body with a knife.

They were really beating up the third room's fallen dog, but they really had no good intentions towards Wen Yue when they said these words.

It is better to suffer together than to suffer alone.

Wen Yue took out the last two pieces of evidence in the file bag and tried to push out the medicine in the white bottle: "This is an infertility medicine."

Ever since Wen Jiadong lost his fertility, "infertility" has become a sensitive word in this family.

The mother and daughter of the second room, who were gloating over the misfortune, stopped talking at the same time, and even the arc of their heads when they looked at Wen Yue was almost the same.

The mother and daughter of the third room had very different expressions. Wen Jiaxin was panicked. She didn't know what happened more than 20 years ago, but she knew what happened a year ago.

Xu Meifeng only had one thought in her mind - it's over!

Wen Rongsheng's reaction was more direct. He held his breath and asked, "What do you mean?"

Wen Yue did not answer, but picked up the last photo and pushed it in front of the mother and daughter of the second wife: "The man who met Xu Meifeng in the photo is a male model who had close contact with Wen Jiadong."

Chen Baoqin heard this and took the photo to confirm it.

She had never seen the male model in the photo and had no idea who he was, but she could roughly guess the truth based on the details revealed by Wen Yue.

Wen Yue's next words also confirmed her guess from the side: "Oh, by the way, after taking this medicine, you need to have sex frequently to make people lose their fertility."

"Xu Meifeng--"

"Xu Meifeng!"

The two consecutive voices came from Wen Rongsheng and Chen Baoqin. The former finally had the strength after yelling and kicked Xu Meifeng, who was hugging his legs, away.

The latter rushed over to Xu Meifeng, regardless of her ladylike image, and sat on her waist, grabbed her hair, and slapped her twice.

While hitting her, he asked sharply: "You drugged Jiadong, and you ruined his fertility, right? I have never harmed your children, why? Why do you want to hurt Jiadong like this!"

After killing Wen Kai and drugging Wen Jiadong, Xu Meifeng knew that she was finished.

She stopped pretending and struggled to grab Xu Meifeng's hand. She shook her head to reveal her red and swollen face from her loose hair and sneered, "Besides the Wen family's property, what else can I do this for?"

Thinking of the more than 40 billion that she had just missed, Chen Baoqin's eyes became even redder: "Ahhh, I'll fight you!"
