Shao Hui's body disappeared in the rolling waves. Xiao Yiheng stood on the bridge, pulling his hair in despair.
His treasure was gone! Gone! Where could he find it in such a turbulent river?
"Shao Hui, you bitch! Fuck your mother!" Xiao Yiheng screamed at the vast void. But after venting his anger, he soon discovered that the scene of Shao Hui jumping out of the car seemed to have been seen by a passing car.
The car owner stopped not far ahead, stuck his head out to check the situation, holding a mobile phone in his hand, and seemed to be calling the police.
Xiao Yiheng was startled and quickly hid in the car, turned around, and drove away quickly. It was originally a fake escape, but now it has become a real escape.
Zhuang Li, who was embracing He Ming and enjoying the ultimate fast charge, suddenly heard a clumsy simulated electronic voice in his mind: "Ding Dong, you have a new gold finger dropped, please check it quickly."
Zhuang Li's body subconsciously tensed up, and He Ming also growled.
A good night ended early like this.
Zhuang Li let out a long breath and said to himself, "Little idiot, next time you speak at such a critical moment, I'll stick a rocket up your ass and send you packing."
"Master, I was wrong! Master, I won't dare to do it again!" 7480 pinched his earlobe, looking scared, but in fact, his skin was getting thicker and thicker.
"Master, I detected that the golden finger is moving away from you quickly. It seems that someone has taken it away. I am disturbing you in a desperate situation." 7480 immediately explained the situation.
"Taken away?" Zhuang Li got out of bed naked and walked into the bathroom to take a shower.
He Ming immediately followed and helped him clean up carefully. As they washed, they mixed the dirt together.
"Since everything has been taken away, forget it and let it go." In the ultimate enjoyment, Zhuang Li whispered nonchalantly.
7480: "...Oh, I see."
The host doesn't even care about the S-level golden finger, and he is still as arrogant as ever!

The next day, the police found Shao Yan, showed her a surveillance video, and asked her to identify whether the woman who jumped out of the car was her daughter Shao Hui.
Shao Yan fainted right after reading it, and when she woke up, she cried out for Huihui heartbreakingly. No matter how many mistakes her daughter had made, she was still a piece of her flesh and blood. She was gone in just one night. How could she not be heartbroken?
She began to blame her son: "Why did you chase her away! If you had brought her back last night, she wouldn't have gone out with Xiao Yiheng! She's still fine now!"
"Did I force her to go with Xiao Yiheng?" Zhuang Li handed Shao Yan a tissue and asked calmly.
Shao Yan suddenly fell silent, but continued to sob.
"Although I don't want to mention it, you have to know that if it weren't for me, you would have died long ago. So stop blaming me endlessly, otherwise you will not only lose your daughter, but also your only son." Zhuang Li revealed the cruel reality.
Shao Yan suddenly looked up and looked in disbelief at his son who had suddenly become extremely unfamiliar.
"Shao Hui will feel cold towards you, and so will I." Zhuang Li continued.
Only then did Shao Yan begin to tremble all over, and she spoke anxiously and intermittently, "Xiao Li, Mom, I was wrong. I didn't think before I spoke. You, you must not take it seriously! I don't blame you. I really don't blame you."
She reached out to hug her son, her face filled with longing and vulnerability.
Zhuang Li looked at her for a long while, and when her tears were almost dry, he gave her a light hug in return.
He Ming sat aside and watched. When Zhuang Li hugged Shao Yan, he also reached out and hugged Zhuang Li from behind.

The police continued to investigate Shao Hui's suicide, and finally found the fugitive Xiao Yiheng around 9:00 PM that evening. Sadly, he was already dead, lying in a shabby hotel room, his body covered in foul-smelling filth and blood.
His death was extremely horrific. He didn't have any external injuries, but every blood vessel was broken and all the bones in his body were shattered, as if a bomb had exploded inside him.
The forensic doctor originally thought that this case was very strange and should be a rare miracle that happens once in a century. However, that night, they received a call from a little boy who said that his father and mother were dying and begged the police to save them quickly.
The police followed the address and, under the guidance of the little boy, went up to the second floor, where they found Wang Dan and Zhuang Shuo lying on the ground, screaming and rolling.
Shao Hui provides Wang Dan with ten bottles of spring water every month to dilute the skin cream, so Wang Dan has stock here.
Unable to resist the temptation of a complete transformation, she and Zhuang Shuo each drank a bottle of spiritual spring water that evening. Unfortunately, they were not the jade pendants' owners, and could not withstand the powerful cleansing properties of the spiritual spring, and soon their bodies exploded.
When the police arrived, their eyes began to bleed. Their two children hid on the first floor and did not dare to come up to check.
Before the ambulance arrived at Wang's house, the two had already died one after another, and their death was exactly the same as Xiao Yiheng's.
---
Another day passed, and Zhuang Li saw the news of the deaths of Xiao Yiheng, Wang Dan, and Zhuang Shuo on the news website at the same time. This group of people was really badly tricked by Shao Hui.
"I discovered that your Lord God has a standard for selecting the child of destiny, and that is cruelty. Be cruel to others and even crueler to yourself." Zhuang Li chuckled and shook his head.
7480 agreed. "Yes, I've noticed this a long time ago. People who aren't ruthless can't accomplish great things. If those children of destiny in the small worlds above hadn't met you, they would probably have all done quite well."
Zhuang Li shook his head and said, "If they hadn't provoked me or hurt He Ming, I wouldn't have taken the initiative to deal with them. It's a pity that they didn't care about their lives, and there was nothing I could do."
Zhuang Li put down his phone and asked, "Can you sense the location of the golden finger now?"
"It's still floating in the river, quite far away from us."
"Then give the salvage team some money and let them go look for it." Zhuang Li said nonchalantly.
Three days later, the salvage team called Zhuang Li and said that they had found Shao Hui's body stuck in a crevice in a nearby city. Her skin was swollen, but she still had a smile on her face, which looked very strange.
Zhuang Li took Shao Yan to collect the body that day.
Before entering the morgue, Shao Yan was already crying so hard that she could no longer stand.
Zhuang Lixiang tried to help her, but she subconsciously struggled and dodged. Although she didn't dare to blame her son, she still felt resentment in her heart. She blamed Zhuang Li for her daughter's death.
Zhuang Li didn't chase after her to help her, nor did he offer any words of comfort. He simply spread his hands, slowly backed away, and said calmly, "You go in and see her. I'll wait outside."
He Ming opened the morgue door for Shao Yan. His attitude was respectful, but his expression was cold. If Shao Yan insisted on creating a barrier, then so be it. He only cared about Zhuang Li, and what others did had nothing to do with him.
Being treated like this by her son and son-in-law, Shao Yan's resentment subsided. She began to feel confused and didn't understand what kind of result she wanted.
The door of the morgue closed, and Shao Yan's suppressed crying could be faintly heard.
Zhuang Li listened attentively for a moment, slowly analyzing Shao Yan's psychological state: "She wants me to repent and confess. She wants me to live with the shackles of killing my sister for the rest of my life. She wants to see my expression of unbearable pain, and she wants to confirm that I am not a cold-blooded person. Facing me now, she feels very insecure."
"Why do you want to live with shackles on your back?" He Ming's tone was very bad: "No wonder Shao Hui grew up with that kind of personality. Your mother is right. The responsibility is indeed all on her own. She spoiled Shao Hui. In your mother's heart, your happiness is not important. Her feelings are the most important. Her selfishness is the same as Shao Hui's."
"You have your own way of living. Don't care too much about her, because she doesn't care about you either." He Ming hugged Zhuang Li in his arms and said seriously, "You still have me. I don't want you to blame yourself, repent, confess your sins, and then live in depression and pain for the rest of your life. I want you to be happy."
Zhuang Li hugged He Ming and sighed contentedly. He was always happy around this person.
The sobbing in the morgue suddenly stopped. Shao Yan, seemingly grief-stricken, was actually listening to the conversation outside. Her confusion gradually dissipated as she listened to her son and son-in-law's conversation, and the unknown emotions that had been lingering in her heart gradually became clear.
It was not until this moment that she understood what she really wanted.
She wanted to see her son's anguished expression, to hear his self-blame and sorrowful words, to see him kneeling before his sister's body and confessing his sins. She couldn't rest easy unless her son was suffering because of this incident.
How could she think that? No, it's not!
Shao Yan tried to deny it, but she couldn't deceive herself. Her son really saw through her.
Her son's overly calm appearance frightened her; she needed to see his vulnerability and collapse. She needed to use her son's pain to ease her own pain.
It turns out that Shao Hui learned selfishness from her!
Shao Yan slowly squatted down, covered her face with her hands and burst into tears. This time, she cried not because of sadness, but because of shame.
Half an hour later, Shao Yan finally walked out of the morgue. His face, which had been full of bitterness these days, forced a smile.
"Xiao Li, let's go." She took the initiative to hold her son's hand.
"I'll go in and take a look too." Zhuang Li also shook her hand, not affected by the previous estrangement.
"Okay, go in and take a look. Don't be too sad, your sister is gone, we have to live well. It's not your fault, it's your sister who took the wrong path." Shao Yan said with tears in her eyes.
Zhuang Li nodded in agreement and walked into the morgue. Whether Shao Yan's attitude towards him was good or bad actually didn't affect his emotions at all.
He Ming glanced at Shao Yan in surprise, not understanding why her attitude changed in just a short moment.
The two men stood in front of the morgue, examining Shao Hui. She was indeed smiling, her eyes peacefully closed, seemingly content with her death. She probably assumed that after she died, the jade pendant would slip out of her palm, be carried away by the river to an unknown location, and remain undiscovered for three, five, or even a hundred years.
However, she was wrong. In just three days, Zhuang Li got what he wanted.
Zhuang Li shook his head and sighed inwardly: "I must have disappointed her again."
7480: "If her soul were still there, she would probably be so angry that she would vomit blood."
Zhuang Li curled his lips into a smile, then reached out and took away the jade pendant that had turned into a light spot and was hidden between Shao Hui's eyebrows.
7480 said excitedly, "Master, this is an S-level golden finger, called the Millennium Spirit Essence. Do you want to merge it or keep it? I suggest you keep it, because you might travel to the world of cultivation in the future. This spirit essence will be very useful."
Zhuang Li nodded and said, "Then stay."
