Chapter 94: The Face Changed
"Just what?" Du Lianshuang and the others, who had finally put their minds at ease, were instantly lifted up again because of this turn of events.
Yin Bailu didn't know how to explain to Du Anrao and the others, so she simply took them to the ward where Liao Yuqian was.
As soon as they entered the ward, they were stunned.
Liao Yuqian's ward was much larger than Du Lianshuang's. Because it was a double room, besides Liao Yuqian, there was another strange man lying inside whom neither of them knew.
"This is..." Although Du Lianshuang was familiar with Yin Bailu, she might not recognize all the people around Liao Yuqian.
"This is Zou Heng, the department manager of Yuqian Company and his good brother. The relationship between Yuqian and him is just like the relationship between you and me."
Du Lianshuang understood Yin Bailu's analogy.
Thinking about this man's name again, isn't he the villain who took his anger out on Liao Yuqian because of his sister's death?
Du Lianshuang's expression froze. She glanced at Liao Yuqian, then at Zou Heng, and after a while she said, "So what are they doing..."
When this was mentioned, Yin Bailu couldn't help but feel scared: "Early this morning, Yu Qian went to the south of the city for a field trip. When he got there, he found that there was a road under construction, which blocked the passage. It would take a long time to go somewhere else, so he thought about just walking there, but he was surrounded as soon as he got off the car."
When Du Lianshuang heard this, she became nervous: "And then?"
"Those people came with bad intentions. I thought it was just an ordinary inspection. Yu Qian brought a small number of people. There were only five people including the driver. How could they be a match for those desperate criminals, not to mention that they brought... guns."
"Gun?!" Du Lianshuang's voice suddenly rose.
It's not her fault for losing her composure. You have to know that they have banned this kind of thing. Who are these people who are causing trouble for Liao Yuqian? How could they have such a thing?
A hint of understanding flashed across Du Anrao's eyes. It was no wonder that Liao Yuqian had fallen into such a misfortune. His enemies really wanted to kill him.
"Then how were they rescued?"
Yin Bailu looked at Zou Heng with a complicated expression.
Liao Yuqian was very happy. He smiled while lying on the bed, "Thanks to Ah Heng. He had participated in boxing competitions in his early years and knows some martial arts. Although there were many people surrounding us, he still delayed us for a while. People nearby heard the noise and realized something was wrong, so they called the police. The police came quickly and scared them away."
Liao Yuqian touched his sprained foot and continued, "It was also because of Ah Heng that I was able to barely save my life. When those people heard that someone was coming, they got anxious and shot me. Ah Heng was standing next to me at the time and pushed me away, but he couldn't completely avoid it. As a result, I was fine, but he injured his shoulder instead."
After hearing this, Du Lianshuang and the others realized that Liao Yuqian was not injured at all except for his feet which were wrapped like steamed buns.
In contrast, Zou Heng's forehead and mouth were covered with bruises, and even his hands were hung up. Blood could be faintly seen oozing from the edges of the bandages. He looked much more miserable than Liao Yuqian.
However, this man, who had kept his head slightly lowered and remained silent since Du Anrao and others entered the room, suddenly spoke when Liao Yuqian held Yin Bailu's hand soothingly and said that they should all thank him.
Zou Heng's voice sounded a little hoarse and low, with a hint of depression: "Don't thank me, I was the one who caused this. I just didn't expect that they were so well-informed. As soon as they knew I wanted to go back on my word, they immediately found someone else and moved up the plan, catching us off guard."
It turned out that after Du Anrao had a chat with Liao Yuqian and his wife that day, Yin Bailu hurriedly invited Zou Heng to her home and explained to him together with Liao Yuqian what happened to Zou Shan five years ago.
Zou Heng was stunned after hearing this. He picked up the small pregnancy test report with trembling hands, looked at his sister's name displayed on it, as well as the ultrasound photo of the fetus more than two months old, and felt like he was struck by lightning.
These materials were accidentally found by Liao Yuqian when he was looking for the bidding document in Zou Shan's room later. In addition, there was also surveillance footage of Zou Shan stealing the bidding document from Zou Heng's room.
In order to prevent Zou Heng from knowing the truth, Liao Yuqian had the backups of these things deleted afterwards. However, Liao Yuqian could not explain why he kept the original version, including the recording of Zou Shan before her death.
Don't ask him why he had a recording device. The reason is that when he saw Zou Shan was dying, he took out his cell phone to call Zou Heng but the call didn't go through, so he just turned on the recording.
Thinking that if Zou Shan had any last words, Zou Heng would regret it for the rest of his life if he didn't have time to hear them, it would be better to record them.
Unexpectedly, this recording would eventually become the key evidence to prove his innocence.
After Zou Heng learned the truth, he remained silent for a few days, and finally accepted the reality. He ran to Liao Yuqian and took the initiative to confess the rumors that Liao Yuqian's arch-enemy had spread about him, and what the other party had asked him to do.
Afterwards, he apologized to Liao Yuqian and submitted his resignation, but Liao Yuqian did not agree and kept dragging it on until today when the two of them got into trouble.
When Yin Bailu first heard Liao Yuqian say that, her face remained expressionless and she was indifferent.
When Zou Heng heard what he said, his face darkened: "You don't need to take all the blame on yourself. This matter has nothing to do with you."
Zou Heng widened his eyes in surprise: "Sister-in-law?"
Yin Bailu met her husband's smiling eyes and pinched him angrily: "No, I'm still angry about the previous incident. I don't deserve your name of sister-in-law. But one thing is for another, what your brother just said is right. This time it's all thanks to you, otherwise he would have another hole in his body. We really should thank you."
Yin Bailu felt uncomfortable by the end of what she said. Liao Yuqian understood her best and ignored the pain in his arm and laughed even more foolishly.
"You've already admitted that I'm his brother, and you still want him to call someone sister-in-law. Don't stand there like an idiot. You don't know your sister-in-law well. She has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She's still angry. You should pay more attention and listen to her so that she can calm down."
Zou Heng was stunned. How could he not understand that Liao Yuqian wanted to keep him? But he was too ashamed to stay under the other party's command any longer.
"Brother, sister-in-law, I really..."
Before he finished speaking, Yin Bailu's eyes flew over: "I really don't understand why you grown men always like to fuss and waver over trivial matters. This matter ends here, and the past relationship is over. If anyone dares to bring it up again in the future, don't blame me for being angry."
"Yes, yes, you are right. Did you hear me? Don't mention these things again in the future and don't make your sister-in-law angry."
Zou Heng looked at the couple who were singing the same tune. How could he not understand their good intentions?
Well, he has no other relatives anyway. After what has happened, he should just behave himself for the rest of his life as atonement.
Du Anrao had been paying close attention to Zou Heng's changes in expression, and suddenly his eyes widened in surprise.
【Hey, his face has changed. 】
