Chapter 14 Revenge

Pei Daoyuan is tall and thin, wearing glasses, and very gentle.

He used to work in an investment bank and was a real white collar.

So he often mingled with celebrities.

Unfortunately, he was an Asian, and he didn't have the advantages of local white people. Two years ago, he was set up by a white colleague and his big client was taken away.

In order to get revenge, he was eager for quick success and got into a series of traps, and lost everything.

His girlfriend immediately abandoned him.

She didn't know that he could actually go back to his parents to inherit the family business.

He didn't expect her to be so materialistic, and he was too lazy to save the relationship, so he just cut off contact.

Now his ex-girlfriend suddenly found him, and he was quite surprised. He thought she finally realized that she missed the diamond bachelor, regretted it, and wanted to get back together.

He prepared a bunch of sarcastic remarks, hoping to hear the woman crying and begging for reconciliation.

But she was just passing on a message for someone else.

Pei Daoyuan was a little disappointed, and asked solemnly, "Who is asking about us?"

"Chu Lingyue." The woman was playing mahjong, holding a cigarette in her mouth, holding the microphone in one hand, and with the other hand she took out a two-tube and threw it out, "It's the one who was filming a gold rush drama in the next-door crew three years ago."

Pei Daoyuan was not interested, and asked, "What did you say?"

"I said you were all dead, and asked her not to bother me anymore." The woman blew a smoke ring and knocked off the ash, "Are you satisfied with this answer?"

"Thank you, I'll treat you to dinner when I'm free." Pei Daoyuan was about to hang up the phone.

The woman said, "Also, the Liang family is also asking about you. Have you offended anyone from the Liang family?"

Pei Daoyuan said of course not. As for what his brother did, what does it have to do with him?

He denied it directly: "I don't know anyone from the Liang family. If someone comes to you again in the future, answer like you did today."

"What are the benefits?" The woman narrowed her eyes and touched the east wind again.

Pei Daoyuan sneered: "What other benefits do you want?"

The woman played with the east wind in her hand, determined to get it: "I heard that your parents are very rich? Give me some."

Otherwise, why did she go to such lengths to stop that group

of people? Of course, they wanted to get the news about their brothers and ask the Pei family for money.

Pei Daoyuan felt disgusted: "So you already know that my family is rich!"

"Will you give it to me? If not, I will call them back now and say that I made a mistake and you and your family are all living happily in the United States." The woman tapped the ash of her cigarette, determined to get it.

Pei Daoyuan sneered: "Okay, I'll give you $100,000, come to me and get it yourself."

The woman was quite satisfied and smiled and blew out a string of smoke rings.

She knew that this bastard had kept it a secret from her so well at the beginning, and he would definitely not be willing to have a niece suddenly appear to divide the family property.

Playing dead is the best.

This is really a bargain for her. I hope that someone in Hong Kong will ask her about it every now and then, so that she can hang on to this money-making tree of the Pei family and make some money from time to time. Are you

still worried about having no money?

Who made her a Chinese? Even if she was filming, there were not many TV dramas with Chinese characters.

She was abandoned by a white man, got pregnant before marriage, and had to raise a mixed-race daughter.

Later, with Pei Daoyuan supporting her, her life was simply wonderful.

After hanging up the phone, she continued to play her mahjong and soon won.

I'm so lucky today!

I won a thousand dollars!

Thanks to the Liang family and the Chu family.

Chu Lingyue just got home when she received a call from a friend in the United States.

"Ayue, I asked for you. That Jin Feng'er said that Pei Daoyuan died in a car accident. Not only him, but his whole family died." The friend was very sorry that he couldn't help Ayue.

This is too unbelievable. Chu Lingyue asked, "Is there any evidence?"

"I can't say for sure, but I think it's very likely. Since his brother can marry the daughter of the Liang family, it means that the Pei family is not short of money. Otherwise, would the Liang family agree? And Jin Feng'er got pregnant before marriage and raised a daughter alone. If there are still people in the Pei family, they should not ignore them, right?" The friend was helpless. She tried her best.

After all, she was not in San Francisco now. If it really doesn't work, she will go to San Francisco to inquire when she is free.

Chu Lingyue was still skeptical. She said thank you and hung up the phone.

One-sided words are not credible. She should find someone else to ask.

She didn't find her mother. When she asked the housekeeper, she knew that her mother went to the hospital.

She hurried back.

When they got there, Liang Xinxin was still unconscious.

This was not right. She sat beside him, looking worried: "Mom, what happened to Xinxin? If she keeps sleeping like this, she will become a sleeping beauty."

Zhuo Ying had already asked the doctor, who said that she was just too sad, and it was nothing serious. She would be fine

once she woke up. So she comforted her: "She will wake up, wait a little longer. Why don't you go back and clean up a room for her?"

Chu Lingyue understood that no one in the Liang family had asked about Xinxin's situation so far. Even if Xinxin shamelessly returned to the Liang family, she would only be waiting for endless attacks.

It would be safer to go to their house.

She asked, "Then I'll choose the guest room on the third floor?"

"The second floor, isn't the room next to your brother Zheng's bedroom empty? It's right there. By the way, Yue, don't you know yet? Xinxin is your brother Zheng's girlfriend." Zhuo Ying wanted to create an opportunity for her son.

In fact, that room was originally Zheng's room, but later he felt that his room was close to Feng's, so he moved to the east.

Feng wanted to move to the east as well, but was beaten by Zheng and gave up.

Now there is an empty room between the two brothers' rooms.

If Xinxin moves in, it will be convenient for Zheng, but what if Feng plays a prank...

Never mind, at least that room is spacious and faces south, with good lighting, and it is more comfortable to live in than the guest room on the third floor.

Chu Lingyue thought this was a good idea, after all, the guest rooms on the third floor were too small.

But she was a little surprised: "No way? Didn't Brother Zheng ask you to prepare clothes, shoes, hats and bags more than half a month ago? But Xinxin just arrived yesterday. How did they know each other?"

"I don't know either, but your brother Zheng is very powerful, so it's not surprising that he knows people from the mainland. Anyway, you should make arrangements quickly. When Xinxin wakes up, she will go home with us and come back for the funeral." Zhuo Ying didn't want to delve into it. Anyway, if Zheng said yes, it was yes.

She was happy to see it happen.

Now that Liang Guoxing was in trouble, the female bodyguard he found for Xinxin also resigned. They were the only ones who could protect Xinxin.

Chu Lingyue hurried back.

Zhuo Ying stayed at the hospital all the time. Soon Chu Weizheng came with three boxed lunches and a male bodyguard.

The mother and son had dinner together in the ward.

After eating, Liang Xinxin still didn't wake up.

Chu Weizheng was worried. There were many people in the hospital. If some dangerous people sneaked in, the consequences would be disastrous.

Just don't wait here anymore.

He picked up Liang Xinxin and sent her to his car: "Mom, I have to go to work, be careful on the road."

Zhuo Ying nodded: "Go, when we get home, A Yue and I will help her upstairs, maybe she will wake up by then."

Chu Weizheng watched the car leave.

When he arrived at the office, he couldn't stop working.

He paid special attention to the people who came from Beijing. He asked every ghost if they knew Pei Daoxuan.

All the answers he got were negative.

The next morning, he took over the shift with Shuzai, but he didn't leave.

Instead, he stopped Shuzai and asked, "How do you calculate birth date, life and death, fortune and misfortune? Teach me."

Shuzai was stunned: "You actually want to learn this? Didn't you say you were not interested?"

"Don't talk nonsense." That was in the past. Now he is very interested.

He must find out as soon as possible what those cold-blooded animals of the Pei family are doing.

Are they dead or not, are they hiding out of helplessness, or are they really cold-blooded and heartless? He must find out

everything.

And he doesn't want to let go of those selfish ghosts of the Liang family.

They are all the people who hurt Xinxin, and no one can escape.

Shuzai had nothing to do at the moment, so he went to his office and took out a few books: "I'll teach you for an hour every day, is that enough?"

It should be enough.

Chu Wei was thirsty for knowledge, and even if he didn't sleep all night, he would cheer up and study.

After finishing the one-on-one private lesson with Shu Zai, it was already ten o'clock in the morning, and he hurried home.

He went to the master bedroom on the first floor and knocked on the door: "Mom?"

Zhuo Ying hung her arms and didn't want to move, so she shouted to come in.

Chu Weizheng pushed open the door and was dumbfounded. He hurried to the bed: "Mom, what happened?"

"The second wife of the Liang family sent someone to assassinate Xinxin. I happened to be out and wanted to ask a private doctor to come to Xinxin to see why she was still not awake. At that time, I was wearing the windbreaker I lent to Xinxin the day before yesterday, and they recognized the wrong person. Fortunately, you hired a bodyguard last night and pushed me away in time, otherwise..." Zhuo Ying thought of the thrilling experience in the morning and couldn't help feeling scared.

Chu Weizheng was very angry and said in a deep voice: "Has the murderer been caught?"

"The bodyguard caught him and is watching him in the nanny's room. Go ask him yourself." Zhuo Ying leaned against the head of the bed, looking tired.

Do you want to ask her if she regrets it?

She brought back a hot potato.

No, she doesn't regret it.

Not to mention that this is A Zheng's girlfriend, even if she is just a stranger, she can't bear to see a group of adults bullying an eighteen-year-old orphan.

This is too immoral.

I just don't know if her arm will have sequelae.

For example, it can't be straightened, and it hurts when it rains.

If that's the case...

Hey, it's worth it, at least a life was saved.

Zhuo Ying quickly convinced herself, smiled and closed her eyes to rest.

The roar of a sports car engine was heard downstairs, and Chu Weizheng, who had interrogated the murderer, went out directly.

He stopped at the foot of the mountain and clicked on the wanted order for fierce ghosts that only they saw in the void. He

chose a five-star difficulty and took it.

He drove to the halfway point of Taiping Mountain where fierce ghosts were lurking. He got out of the car and climbed the rocks with his bare hands to the bottom of the valley.

He chose a relatively flat place to draw a sealing spell and set up a ghost catching formation.

Soon, he found the vehicle that crashed ten years ago in a pile of wildly growing weeds.

There were more than a dozen skeletons underneath.

This was the family of the missing youngest son of the Shao family, the second richest family.

Three children plus a couple, it was too tragic.

The five wronged souls turned into earth-bound spirits. For ten years, they kept harassing passing vehicles. On every anniversary of their death, a car would have an accident or go missing.

There were seven vehicles that fell in the same place, so there were a total of more than ten skeletons here, covered by weeds.

It was extremely dangerous.

He didn't want to provoke the fierce ghosts here unless it was absolutely necessary.

But now, he had to take the risk.

After all, the fierce ghosts would not leave any evidence when they were taking lives. He had a policeman brother and his father was an old antique who had been running a legal business all his life. He didn't want to make things difficult for them.

He picked up a knife, cut his palm, and led the fierce ghost to his side.

The fierce ghosts usually sleep during the day, waiting to come out at night to cause trouble.

The disturbed fierce ghosts also got angry when they woke up, and rushed towards him with their teeth and claws bared.

He turned around and ran, heading straight to the center of the formation.

A chilly wind suddenly rose, and the wronged souls cried out in pain, chasing relentlessly, crashing into the formation entrance one after another.

There were too many of them, and he might not be able to bear it alone, so he could only grit his teeth and hold on until the last moment.

The corner of his mouth was bitten, and blood flowed down. In the fierce wind, he smiled coldly and attracted the last fierce ghost.

"Seal!" He shouted angrily and closed the entrance.

The magic circle was like a cage, tightening little by little, and finally turned into a glass bottle and fell into his hand.

At noon that day, he went to the Liang family's mourning hall to pay his respects. He

left behind an empty glass bottle with the seal opened and walked away.

As soon as he got back to the car, he was attacked by the backlash for releasing the fierce ghost and suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood.

An emotionless voice rang in his ears: "Illegal operation, bad luck for three years, considering that you are avenging your mother and girlfriend, it is understandable, and today's victim is related to the death of the fierce ghost, this punishment can be withdrawn. Please capture the fierce ghost and bring him back to the underworld within 72 hours to avoid punishment. The countdown begins-"

Chu Weizheng raised his eyebrows. Today's victims are all here in the Liang family's mourning hall. Someone is actually related to the death of the fierce ghost?

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and prepared to ask Liang Guoxing if he knew anything about it. By the way... he wanted to give Ah Feng a credit for solving the case!
