Chapter 51 Chapter 051 The car accident that year
You know, the crews for CCTV commercials are different from regular ones. This time, Qin Huan was filming a commercial with a movie star. Would any other advertiser have gotten him to take ten days off? Qin Huan hadn't been busy lately, so she was cooperating well. Xu Hui knew that once this commercial aired, Qin Huan would definitely be able to shed her previous image as the villainous supporting actress. She might even get a lead role...
"Sister Xu, that's not necessarily true, but the CCTV crew is truly amazing. This is the first time I've seen myself like that."
Qin Huan felt a little embarrassed, but he also felt that the CCTV crew was very capable, so the advertisement was shot very well.
"That's the first time I've seen this either. Okay, wait until the commercial airs. Your followers are sure to soar. You know Chen Wei? She gained 300,000 followers in a single day from one commercial. It's skyrocketing! With that kind of momentum, how many advertisers would be interested? So I suspect that once your commercial airs, you'll definitely be approached by some fantastic endorsement deals. Then I'll be making money from you."
Patting Qin Huan's back gently, although the artist that Xu Hui was managing at the company did not successfully terminate the contract, the agent contract was no longer with Xu Hui. How the other party was exploited in the future was not Xu Hui's business.
After the two finished chatting, Xu Hui took Zhang Jiajia to pack up. The shooting time was delayed from the original three days to ten days, so it was time to go back.
Qin Huan also missed her mother. Although she could talk to her mother on the phone every day, she was still a little worried about her mother being alone in the hospital. She also talked to Uncle Lu Tao several times. Recently, she asked Uncle Lu Tao to take care of her mother. I hope Uncle Lu Tao won’t be embarrassed, right?
Qin Huan was still wondering whether Lu Tao would be embarrassed, but at this time, Lu Tao had already driven with Fang Xi to a small city near Mingzhu City. Many people had never heard of the name of that small city. While Fang Xi was driving, Lu Tao had a serious expression on his face.
It was almost dark when the two of them arrived at the place they had investigated.
This was an old shared apartment building, a thirteen-story building that didn't even have an elevator. The buildings were extremely dilapidated, and the people living here were all working here. Lu Tao walked up the stairs step by step with a cold face, while Fang Xi followed beside him in silence.
They soon reached the seventh floor. Coming out of the stairwell, they saw a dark corridor with a long row of doors marked with numbers. They walked forward and finally arrived at the door of room 707, then rang the doorbell.
The sound of ding-dong ding-dong rang out in the corridor. It was so quiet around that Lu Tao touched the cigarette in his pocket but did not take it out.
A woman's voice soon came from the room.
"Who is it?"
She seemed to have arrived at the door, but did not dare to open it. She just looked outside through the peephole through the door. As a result, she saw two strange men, one of whom was wearing a black eye mask, which made the woman a little confused.
"Who are you looking for?" she asked without opening the door, very alert.
"Is this Zhang Yan's house? We are friends of your husband Chen Fengrong. We used to drive a truck together. I have something I want to ask your sister-in-law."
Fang Xi spoke. He was very tall and didn't sound cold when he spoke, but that didn't make people feel repulsed.
But Zhang Yan inside replied immediately.
"My husband is not at home. He is in jail, and I don't know anything about his affairs. If you have any problems, please find someone else."
Zhang Yan refused and remained very alert, but the next second, the sound coming from behind the door made Zhang Yan stiffen all over.
"Zhang Yan, how did you get your son's medical expenses? Chen Fengrong didn't tell me, did he? If you don't open the door today, and you have the guts to stay away from it for the rest of your life, your son is seven years old this year, right? He's in the first grade at Fengyang Primary School, right? If you don't open the door, we'll just wait here. Your son has to go to school, right?"
Lu Tao's dark voice sounded, as if he wanted to swallow people whole, skin and bones. Zhang Yan trembled all over, but he immediately held the door.
"I don't understand what you are saying. I don't know anything. Who are you? Get out of here! Otherwise I'm going to call the police!!!"
She threatened the two men outside the house in a timid manner, but she was actually very scared. Lu Tao took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, his voice sounding a little casual.
"Call the police. We've already found out your husband was bribed to hit someone five years ago. Let the police decide if he's right or wrong. Oh, and your husband's crime is considered intentional homicide. Doesn't that make your son the son of a murderer? Don't worry, we won't do anything to you or your son. The most we'll do is go to your son's school and tell everyone that his father is a murderer. Now that he's had a heart transplant, do you think he'll be able to handle such a situation?"
Lu Tao just held the cigarette in his mouth without lighting it. Fang Xi stood beside him. Perhaps he liked the animalistic side of Lu Tao.
He threatened the woman inside the door, but the eye that was exposed outside was already slightly red.
Fang Xi investigated the case of that year and brought back a piece of news.
The car accident that year was considered a drunk driving accident. On the surface, it certainly seemed like an accident. The driver cooperated well and admitted his guilt and even repented. However, he was left in a vegetative state, so he had to go to jail and was sentenced to seven years in prison.
It's just such a coincidence.
Driver Chen Fengrong had just gone to prison when his son, who had a heart disease, suddenly had money to treat his illness. He underwent a heart surgery worth 600,000 yuan. Together with some subsequent medical expenses, the cost was probably one million yuan.
Chen Fengrong is just a driver. He had an accident while driving a truck before and lost a lot of money. Later he switched to driving a taxi. So how could such a person come up with millions of dollars in medical expenses to treat his son's heart disease?
But... just when Chen Fengrong went to prison, he had money to treat his illness?
The person inside the door remained silent, but was extremely frightened. However, thinking of his son who had a heart disease and could not bear the stimulation, he could only open the door slowly and tremblingly, and saw the two men outside.
Lu Tao sneered and walked straight in. Fang Xi followed behind. Zhang Yan didn't say anything, but was so nervous that she didn't know what to do.
After entering the door, Lu Tao sat down directly and looked up at the nervous woman.
"Don't be afraid. I won't do anything to you when I come here today. I just want to ask you something."
He looked like someone who was not easy to deal with. Zhang Yan nodded, biting her lip but still feeling afraid.
Fortunately, my son is asleep now, Zhang Yan said softly.
"What do you want to ask?"
Lu Tao is very straightforward.
"In the car accident five years ago, was your husband bribed to hit someone?"
Zhang Yan was stunned. She instinctively wanted to shake her head, but facing these two tall men, she knew she had no chance of winning. Moreover, the other party had already come to her door and might have known everything. She... she was simply powerless against these people.
"……yes."
She gave a clear answer. Lu Tao paused with his hand holding the cigarette, clenched his back teeth, but did not speak again.
Fang Xi reached out and patted his shoulder, then looked up at Zhang Yan.
"Do you know who asked your husband to deliberately hit someone with his car?"
Zhang Yan shook her head.
"I don't know. I only know that my husband suddenly took out some money. He said he might go to jail, and asked me to have surgery for our son after he went to jail. I don't know anything else. I've spent all the money. I... I don't know anything..."
Tears finally fell. Zhang Yan knew that her husband had hit someone, and the woman had become a vegetable. It was said that she was only guarded by one daughter. At that time, Zhang Yan did not think much about it. Now that someone came to her door, Zhang Yan realized a little scared.
Lu Tao stood up immediately. He already knew the truth. He threw out a stack of things, which scattered all over the table like snowflakes.
Zhang Yan looked down, her legs went limp and she knelt down, staring at the photos of her husband on the table in disbelief. In the photos, Chen Fengrong had a buzz cut and his head and body were covered in blood from being beaten. He looked like a dying fish.
She cried and trembled, fear coming over her as she saw the photos, but Lu Tao did not make things difficult for her.
"Don't worry, people won't die in prison. I'm just looking for someone to take care of him, but I won't let him go. You should be thankful that he's in prison now."
After Lu Tao finished speaking, he walked out the door. Fang Xi knew that Lu Tao had come all the way here just to get a definite answer.
The car accident was caused by Chen Fengrong, but in fact there was someone else behind it. It is now basically confirmed.
Fang Xi followed Lu Tao down the stairs quickly. When Lu Tao reached the bottom of the stairs, he finally couldn't help it and punched the wall. In an instant, the wall was stained with blood.
"It would be even more painful for your sister to see you hurting yourself."
Grabbing Lu Tao's hand, Fang Xi saw that the skin was broken and bleeding, and dragged him into the car.
The two sat in the car. Fang Xi treated Lu Tao's injuries skillfully and felt Lu Tao's hands trembling.
"The Liu family! And that bastard! I must make them die! Make them die!!!"
Lu Tao was so angry that he spoke without thinking, but Fang Xi was very calm.
"We can't act rashly on this matter. The Liu family has some connections in the capital. I'm afraid that what happened to my sister is just Liu Jiaren's revenge. Lu Tao, don't be impulsive. Huanhuan will be back tomorrow morning. We can't expose this in front of Huanhuan, understand?"
After comforting Lu Tao, Fang Xi took a while to deal with Lu Tao's hand.
"I know, but how dare the Liu family do this? My sister clearly didn't do anything wrong, and this despicable man, not only abandoned her, but he actually sent people to attack her! I really want to go to Shangjing City and kill him right now! I want him to be torn into pieces!!!"
Lu Tao could hardly control his emotions. Inside the car, Fang Xi made a phone call to have someone investigate Chen Fengrong's bank statements from that year. After the call, he grabbed Lu Tao and hugged him tightly.
"Okay, I know you're upset, but for Huanhuan, you have to calm down. If something happens to you, who will take care of your sister, and who will take care of Huanhuan?"
