Chapter 215 Lifetimes, Never to Be Apart
Returning to Yun Gui.
Shen Qingshu opened the document immediately.
Fu Siyan gave her very complete information.
There was more to my mother's case than met the eye!
Zhao Tian was even involved!
Shen Qingshu flipped through the documents, which she had found in the last few months.
It turns out that Lin Lanyi and Zhao Tian knew each other from the very beginning.
Zhao Tian used to be a businessman, but he was too ambitious. Later, in order to earn more money, he started smuggling and making money through illegal means.
Later, during a nationwide crackdown, Zhao Tian accidentally killed an officer while on the run and was subsequently wanted by the police!
After Zhao Tian escaped, Lin Lanyi discovered she was pregnant. She gave birth to Zhou Yuchu alone and soon after, she went into prostitution as a hostess.
In nightclubs, she met many wealthy men and lived as their kept man for a few years. However, most of these wealthy men were only interested in novelty and eventually kicked Lin Lanyi out with a breakup fee.
Lin Lanyi was unwilling to accept this, so she began to look for a man who could help her rise to power.
Just then, Zhao Tian reappeared. After learning that Lin Lanyi had given birth to his daughter, he began to harass Lin Lanyi.
Lin Lanyi was already in a relationship with Shen Mingxiong at the time, and in order to keep Zhao Tian in check, she had no choice but to cooperate with him!
Lin Lanyi was tasked with seducing Shen Mingxiong. The plan was to kick Jiang Yuelan out of the Shen family and make Lin Lanyi Mrs. Shen. In this way, their daughter Zhou Yuchu could become the rightful heiress of the Shen family. Lin Lanyi would then try to give birth to a son, and then Zhao Tian would find an opportunity to kill Shen Yanying so that her son could legally inherit the Shen family's property!
At that time, Zhao Tian will find another opportunity to kill Shen Mingxiong, and then everything in the Shen family will be theirs.
Everything was going smoothly until that day when Shen Mingxiong accidentally caught Lin Lanyi and Zhao Tian having a secret rendezvous. Enraged, he went home, drank some alcohol, and started punching and kicking Jiang Yuelan!
Jiang Yuelan was so traumatized by the beating that she pushed Shen Mingxiong out of instinct, but she also fell to the ground due to inertia, hitting the back of her head against the wall and losing consciousness on the spot.
When she woke up, she was told that Shen Mingxiong had fallen to his death.
Everyone, including the police at the time, believed that Jiang Yuelan accidentally pushed Shen Mingxiong off the building.
However, according to new evidence provided by Fu Siyan, a nanny saw Lin Lanyi running out of the back garden in a panic on the day of the incident.
After the incident at the Shen family's home, the nanny, fearing trouble, resigned and returned to her hometown.
Until recently, Fu Siyan's people found the nanny.
However, despite witnesses, there is no direct evidence to prove that Lin Lanyi is related to the case.
The key to turning the case around lies with Zhao Tian!
Zhao Tian is not dead.
During the Zhou family arson incident, Zhao Tian suffered burns to 60% of his body. He was secretly rescued by Fu Siyan's men, but has been undergoing secret treatment and rehabilitation for the past four years and has not yet regained consciousness.
Until a month ago, Zhao Tian's condition improved, and he regained consciousness.
Last week, Fu Siyan's men took Zhao Tian to Lin Lanyi's residence.
Lin Lanyi is terminally ill, and her mental state is deteriorating day by day.
But she continues to take the medication, firmly believing that the life-saving drugs she bought at a high price will restore her health!
But in fact, she herself did not realize that she was already extremely thin.
When Lin Lanyi saw Zhao Tian, she thought it was Zhao Tian's ghost coming to claim her life!
Unbeknownst to them, besides Zhao Tian, Fu Siyan's men were also recording the event with cameras.
Under Zhao Tian's intimidation, Lin Lanyi knelt down and confessed, kowtowing as she revealed the whole truth about Shen Mingxiong's death years ago.
“It was me! I killed Shen Mingxiong, Ah Tian. I had no choice. Shen Mingxiong knew about us. If he didn’t die, he would take revenge on us. You fled abroad, but what about me? I have to live on…”
"Later, I married Zhou Zhensheng, just to give Xiao Chu a respectable status! Ah Tian, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please forgive me, please forgive me!"
Zhao Tian stared at her, his gaze sinister. "Then how do you explain the day the Zhou family set fire? We clearly agreed that we would cooperate from the inside to set the fire, and then flee abroad with the money and jewelry from Zhou Zhensheng's safe. But what did you do?"
"You fucking knocked me out from behind with a bottle! Xiao Lan, look at the mess I'm in now, it's all your fault! I love you so much, if it weren't for wanting to give you and our daughter the best life, would I have risked everything to do those things? I did it all for you! But you're such a vicious woman, you even tried to kill me!"
Lin Lanyi shook her head. Her eyes, which were bulging due to the torment of illness, were now filled with fear.
"I didn't want this to happen. I know I've wronged you, but I really don't want to live such a miserable life anymore. I can't adapt to living abroad. Zhao Tian, go and be reincarnated. We weren't meant to be in this life, but let's be husband and wife in the next. Please let me go! Let me go, I don't want to die!"
"You don't want to die?" Zhao Tian laughed, his voice, hoarse from the burns, sounding like a vengeful ghost from hell—
"Lin Lanyi, you should have died long ago! Look at your body, it's rotten to the core! Do you think those so-called life-saving drugs you take every month are anything good?! Let me tell you, they're illegal! You won't live much longer, you're going to die, and you'll die a horrible death—"
Lin Lanyi's pupils widened, and she shook her head, saying, "No, I spent so much money on this medicine, I'll get better, I won't die, I won't die!"
"Hahaha! Lin Lanyi, you've spent your whole life scheming against men, but you never expected that in the end, you'd still be defeated by a man!"
Zhao Tian laughed arrogantly, "Let me tell you, I'm the one who gave you AIDS! Xiao Lan, you want to get rid of me so badly, right? Then I'll make sure you go to hell with the disease I gave you!"
"I will wait for you in hell, and we will be together in hell for all eternity, never to be separated!"
Zhao Tian grabbed Lin Lanyi's arm!
"Ah—I don't want to! Zhao Tian, let me go, I don't want to—"
Lin Lanyi screamed in terror, and was so frightened that she lost control of her bladder on the spot!
Zhao Tian really wanted to strangle Lin Lanyi.
But he failed.
Fu Siyan's men stopped Zhao Tian in time.
Lin Lanyi fainted from fright.
She doesn't have much longer to live, but she can't die now.
Jiang Yuelan wants to overturn the verdict, and Lin Lanyi and Zhao Tiandu are still useful!
Shen Qingshu entrusted the case to Attorney Fang for full follow-up.
Considering that Lin Lanyi does not have long to live, the Supreme Court decided to prioritize this case.
Fu Siyan had already informed them in advance.
The case is said to have only just been reopened, but preparations were actually made a month ago.
Nine years later, the case is being reopened.
The Shen family also received the news.
On the day of the trial, Madam Shen arrived with Shen Yanying and several other members of the Shen family.
Jiang Yuelan had not fully regained her senses. She only remembered Shen Qingshu, Xiao Ashu, and Aunt Qin and Jin Huaimin, who had been living with her all these days.
After the court session began, Shen Qingshu held Jiang Yuelan's hand.
Jiang Yuelan looked slightly uneasy and kept turning her head to look at Jin Huaimin behind her.
Jin Huaimin comforted her with his eyes.
The video of Lin Lanyi and Zhao Tian was publicly played.
In the video, Lin Lanyi was so frightened by Zhao Tian that she confessed everything.
Madam Shen fainted on the spot after reading it.
Shen Yanying rushed forward to hit Lin Lanyi!
Lin Lanyi clutched her head and wailed like a banshee, while Zhao Tian, as an accomplice, sat to the side, looking neither human nor ghost, and chuckled sinisterly.
Perhaps, execution would be a relief for him.
The witness testimonies and physical evidence are conclusive.
With the fall of the gavel, the trial came to an end.
Lin Lanyi and Zhao Tian were both sentenced to death.
Nine years later, Jiang Yuelan was finally exonerated, her records were erased, and she was given a new life.
However, when the day actually arrived, Jiang Yuelan was like a bystander, looking completely bewildered.
She sat in the plaintiff's seat, her daughter holding her hand tightly beside her.
Shen Yanying was still cursing and threatening to kill Lin Lanyi, his face contorted with rage, bearing a striking resemblance to Shen Mingxiong from back then.
Jiang Yuelan looked at it and frowned slightly.
“Ah Shu…” She turned to look at Shen Qing Shu, pointed at Shen Yan Ying, “Look at that person, he looks so fierce…”
Shen Qingshu patted her mother's head and smiled slightly.
"It's okay, he's being mean to others, we can just ignore it."
Shen Qingshu helped her mother stand up.
At this moment, Shen Yanying suddenly looked at them.
Those scarlet, murderous eyes were exactly the same as Shen Mingxiong's back then!
Jiang Yuelan's mind flashed through fragmented images of Shen Mingxiong hitting her.
She screamed, covering her head and crying, "No, don't hit me—"
Shen Qingshu felt heartbroken and hugged her mother, gently comforting her, "Mom, it's alright, it's alright, let's go home."
Shen Yanying watched as Shen Qingshu protected Jiang Yuelan as they left.
His face was gloomy.
At that moment, no one knew what he was thinking.
