Zhang Wanru broke down and asked, "Is this how you think of me? Didn't you say you loved me?"
"Pah! I love you my ass, what is there about you that I would love?" Chen Xiaohe retorted speechlessly.
"Let me tell you, more than 20 years ago, I saw through your true nature. You are a vain woman who doesn't love anything but money and face. You were attracted to me because my family is rich and I am handsome."
"To tell you the truth, it wasn't my family that forced me to break up with you back then; it was my own choice to break up with you."
“I was afraid you’d keep bothering me, so I had to bring my family out. I’m so fed up with you, I just want to kick you out.”
Zhang Wanru had no more tears left to cry; she screamed:
"Chen Xiaohe, since you don't love me, then give me back my money."
Chen Xiaohe sneered, "I've already transferred the money overseas. You want it? Forget it!"
Chen Xiaohe spread his hands, striking a rogue-like pose.
"Are you really a fraudster?!" Zhang Wanru asked, still unwilling to give up.
"Hahaha, what else? If I weren't a fraudster, why would I have fallen for you? You're worse than a pig or a dog, I have a clear conscience about deceiving you!"
"Doubling your money in three days, turning 800,000 into 1.6 million, you can tell it's a scam even with your toes. You only believe me because you're so greedy."
Chen Xiaohe directly admitted to the fact that he had defrauded people.
Zhang Wanru completely lost hope and attacked Chen Xiaohe like a madwoman:
"Liar! Go to hell! Give me my money back!"
Chen Xiaohe showed no mercy to her, kicking and hitting Zhang Wanru repeatedly.
Lin An watched the two fight like dogs without expression. Whenever the two fought to the point of getting close to Lin An's feet, Brother Long would kick them to the other side.
Zhang Wanru was already in poor health, and she was quickly beaten to the point of near death by Chen Xiaohe.
She remembered she still had tens of millions of dollars; saving her life was the priority. She cowered on the ground, begging for mercy.
"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me! I don't want that 800,000 anymore. I have plenty of money. I'm not fighting you anymore."
Chen Xiaohe was exhausted from fighting, so he plopped down on the ground, panting heavily.
Zhang Wanru huddled at his feet, covering her head. Chen Xiaohe, having caught his breath, burst into laughter:
"Hahaha, Zhang Wanru, you still think the financial company you found is some kind of good thing? Let me tell you, they're just like me, they're all scammers. I'm working alone, but they're an organized and disciplined operation. No one is any more noble than the other; we're all just out to cheat."
"You big idiot! Your tens of millions are long gone, hahaha."
Zhang Wanru stared coldly at Chen Xiaohe. She had suffered too many blows in one day, and her brain, out of its protective instincts, rejected all unfavorable information.
She laughed maniacally, "You're jealous of me? Even if I had tens of millions, you still couldn't fool me. I'll make you furious! Let me tell you, I earn tens of millions in interest every year. You'll regret losing a rich woman like me."
Chen Xiaohe shook his head. He was convinced; this old woman's brain was full of shit and beyond saving.
Lin An winked at Brother Long.
Brother Long grabbed Zhang Wanru and said sternly, "Open your dog eyes and take a good look."
Brother Long opened a news article in front of her:
"Today, the municipal public security authorities cracked the case of Doujin Wealth Management Company illegally absorbing public deposits. This case involves a huge amount of money, with up to tens of billions of yuan illegally transferred overseas. A total of 121 people are involved, some of whom have fled overseas. The following is a list of those who have fled. We urge the public to be aware of this..."
Zhang Wanru stared at the familiar company facade in the video, along with the name of her trusted financial manager, prominently displayed on the list of fugitives. Everything was laid bare before her eyes. She froze for a few seconds, then opened her mouth and fainted.
Brother Long went up and slapped him twice, but he still didn't wake up.
Lin An picked up a mineral water bottle next to him and poured it over Zhang Wanru's head.
Zhang Wanru finally woke up, and she burst into tears:
"My money is all gone! I have nothing left!"
When Lin An threatened her just now, she was thinking to herself, "At worst, I'll go to jail for ten years and still be a rich woman when I get out."
Now she looked at Lin An in despair, completely breaking down.
Lin An squatted down beside her and spoke coldly:
“It was I who reported Doujin Company to the police. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have noticed this financial company. Because of you, there is one less fraudulent company in the world.”
Lin An looked at Chen Xiaohe and said calmly, "Oh, no, there's one less fraudster."
Zhang Wanru looked at Lin An with a dazed expression, grabbed his arm, and asked:
"Why are you doing this? I'm your own mother! Do you really want to kill me?"
"Is it all because of Lin Tianyou? You have no feelings for him at all," Zhang Wanru said in a hoarse voice.
Lin An shook off her hand: "My grandfather is the only relative in this world who truly loves me. He is the only one who longs for me to come home. On the days I am not home, my name exists on almost every page of his diary."
"Only he was willing to invest so much and not care about the benefits to find me."
“You keep saying you’re my biological mother, but don’t think I don’t know what you’ve done. If it weren’t for your interference, I believe my grandfather would have found me long ago.”
Zhang Wanru shook her head frantically: "No, I didn't."
“It’s no use denying it. In the second year after I went missing, you went to the orphanage to look for me. After you saw me, you didn’t take me with you and even said you didn’t know me.”
"I've known about these things for a long time. I'm tired of saying things like you're worse than an animal."
Zhang Wanru covered her ears with both hands, while Xue Keyun shook her head frantically.
"Please stop talking, please stop talking."
Lin An looked down at her and said coldly, "I really have nothing more to say. You can tell the rest to the police."
Lin An took out his phone and dialed 110 directly.
Seeing that Lin An was about to call the police, Zhang Wanru used all her strength to jump up and snatch Lin An's phone away.
"Don't do this! Don't call the police!"
"Lin An, please give me a chance to turn over a new leaf. If you let me go, I'll be your slave in the next life."
“I really didn’t mean to leave you in the orphanage and make you suffer. You are my child, and I want you to have a good life.”
"Then why don't you take me home?" Lin An said through gritted teeth.
Zhang Wanru wept bitterly: "Because you look so much like your grandfather, especially your eyes. The day I went to the orphanage to pick you up, I looked into your eyes through the glass window, and I felt like the person looking at me was Lin Tianyou."
"I was so scared, it was like seeing Lin Tianyou reborn."
"So I ran away. After returning from the orphanage, I had nightmares for two years in a row. Every night I dreamed that Lin Tianyou possessed you and wanted to take me away."
Lin An took a deep breath and asked, "After I returned to the Lin family, you disliked me in every way. Is that also because of this?"
Zhang Wanru covered her face and sobbed, "I have no choice. I can only suppress the fear in my heart by hating you and treating you as an enemy."
"Actually, I don't hate you, I'm afraid of you. When you left the Lin family, I was also very reluctant to see you suffer, sob sob sob..."
Lin An stared at her coldly.
Zhang Wanru felt uneasy under his gaze and timidly said:
"I'm innocent! I never meant to hurt you. If you don't believe me, ask Chen Xiaohe. He's the one who ordered me to steal. Please forgive me this once. I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to you, okay?"
Lin An snorted and said, "I've been away from home for sixteen years. You've had many chances to make it up to me, but you've missed them time and time again."
"When you're alive, you have to be reasonable and know the rules. Opportunities aren't something you can just have whenever you want. If you have any grievances, go talk to the police."
Lin An glanced at Brother Long and immediately dialed the police.
Zhang Wanru tried to use the same trick again to steal the phone.
He was kicked hard by Brother Long and sent flying into the corner.
