Xu Xiuzhen stared blankly at the video in front of her...
Although the video was so low-resolution that facial features were blurry, she recognized Su Mu at first glance, and the little girl Su Mu was holding hands with was none other than Nini!
Xu Xiuzhen slowly narrowed her eyes.
She stopped watching the video and looked at Zhou Chunhua, who was holding the phone.
She couldn't understand how Zhou Chunhua found the video when Nini went missing, since surveillance cameras weren't widespread back then.
She's a woman who married far away, and she has absolutely no connections in Jiang City... So who is it? Who has been helping her all along?!
Unconsciously, a cool and handsome face appeared in Xu Xiuzhen's mind.
He... Gu Yao!
It must have been Gu Yao who helped her!
Thinking of this, Xu Xiuzhen unconsciously clenched her fists.
Logically speaking, a woman like Zhou Chunhua, who has nothing, should have lived a hard and miserable life after being kicked out of her home, and should have been treated like a human being.
She couldn't understand what that lawyer surnamed Gu had in mind about Zhou Chunhua!
"What? Are you pretending not to know me? Or are you too scared to say who this is?"
Xu Xiuzhen, who was lost in thought, suddenly snapped back to reality.
She looked at the aggressive Zhou Chunhua in front of her, barely suppressing the hatred in her eyes.
After she takes that wretched woman Zhou Chunhua away from Gu's side, she will make sure that Zhou Chunhua never has a chance to turn things around again.
"I...I don't know what you're talking about." Xu Xiuzhen rubbed her eyes and looked at Zhou Chunhua's phone again.
"Maybe I'm getting old, my eyesight isn't what it used to be. Besides being able to vaguely make out that it's a young girl and a little baby, what else do you want me to see?"
At that moment, as Zhou Chunhua put her phone away, a cold glint flashed in her eyes.
Actually, she brought out this video just to test whether Xu Xiuzhen was involved in the abduction of Nini back then.
At this moment, she already had the answer.
Therefore, whether or not we can find Jiang Tiancheng is no longer so important.
"Really?" Zhou Chunhua shoved her phone into her pocket. "Then I hope you can remain as composed as you are now in front of the police."
"You..." Xu Xiuzhen blushed, "What do you mean?"
Zhou Chunhua smiled mysteriously, turned to the silent crowd beside her, and said, "Everyone, as a mother, it's impossible for me to..."
"Ms. Xu Xiuzhen, you simply don't have the money to take the child abroad for treatment. So, what is your purpose in deceiving my client, Ms. Zhou, and attempting to take Ms. Zhou's daughter away?"
The sudden sound immediately attracted the attention of everyone, including Zhou Chunhua and Xu Xiuzhen.
Gu Yao!
Why is he back at this time? He should be at the petition office right now!
In the blink of an eye, Gu Yao was already in front of her.
"Sorry I'm late." After saying that, Gu Yao turned around and stood in front of her.
"Hey Gu, you don't still think my son is the same poor and destitute guy he used to be, do you? Let me tell you, my son is now the CEO of a listed company!"
"Our Liao family doesn't have much of anything, ha! We have plenty of money!"
Xu Xiuzhen tilted her head to the side and raised it again, looking down at people with her nose in the air.
Gu Yao pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and said, "Indeed, an hour ago, Liao Nanxing was still the CEO of a listed company."
But right now, he should already be sitting in the economic crime investigation department's interrogation room.
"You...you're talking nonsense!" Xu Xiuzhen shouted, her face ashen.
“Nonsense is the same as spreading rumors.” Gu Yao’s lips curled up, his voice cold: “As a lawyer, I would never break the law.”
Just then, someone in the crowd exclaimed, "My God! Liao Nanxing was really arrested for bribery just an hour ago!"
"Oh my god! It's true! The official announcement has been released!"
"Really? Where is it? Let me see."
"It's trending on social media!"
"..."
The crowd immediately erupted in noise.
At this moment, Xu Xiuzhen's hands were trembling as she reached into her purse.
However, the phone in my pocket felt like it weighed a ton; I tried to get it out for ages but couldn't.
“Ms. Xu, if you don’t hurry back, you might not even get to see your son one last time,” Gu Yao said again.
With a thud, Xu Xiuzhen collapsed to the ground.
"No way, how could Nanxing possibly bribe! It was you!" Xu Xiuzhen said, tilting her head back. "You surnamed Gu, it was you who framed Nanxing, wasn't it? You madman! For that slut Zhou Chunhua, you...you actually framed my son!"
At this moment, Xu Xiuzhen's features were contorted, and she bared her teeth like a mad dog.
Zhou Chunhua pulled Gu Yao aside and slapped Xu Xiuzhen across the face.
"Your son is the one who cheated on his wife with his student!"
"You...hit me?"
"I'm beating you, you vicious old woman who helps her son, bullies her daughter-in-law, and is so sexist that she even sold her own granddaughter!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding noise suddenly stopped.
Everyone stared in astonishment at Xu Xiuzhen sitting on the ground.
Xu Xiuzhen pointed at her and shouted, "You, you're talking nonsense! This is slander! Fabrication! I, I'm going to sue you! And about you hitting me, I, I'm not done with you!"
“In that case, let’s call the police.” Gu Yao took out his phone and said, “I just don’t know if you’ll be able to see Liao Nanxing again after this is all sorted out.”
"You...you surnamed Gu, you just wait! I'm not done with you!" Xu Xiuzhen got up and rushed out of the crowd.
Once people came to their senses, they quickly gathered around again.
"Ms. Zhou, is it true that your former mother-in-law sold your daughter to human traffickers?"
Do you have any evidence?
"Ms. Zhou, what exactly was the video you showed to your former mother-in-law, Aunt Xu?"
"Could it be that the video is evidence?"
"..."
Various doubts and questions arose.
Just as Zhou Chunhua was about to speak, Gu Yao blocked her way once again.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have no comment on your questions. Regarding Nini's abduction, please wait for the official announcement."
After saying that, Gu Yao turned around and pushed her into the ward, locking the door behind him.
Despite the constant knocking on the door, Gu Yao ignored it.
At this moment, Zhou Chunhua was more curious about Liao Nanxing than about the people outside the door.
She glanced at the ward door, then pulled Gu Yao directly to the balcony.
"Liao Nanxing bribed...is it true?"
Gu Yao leaned against the balcony, a smile playing on his lips, and nodded: "You mean to say that Liao Nanxing isn't the kind of person who would knowingly break the law?"
Zhou Chunhua nodded.
Having been with Liao Nanxing for so many years, Liao Nanxing has always been careful and cautious in his dealings with others; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to hide his affair for so long.
