Chapter 578: Caught
"He is suspected of trafficking babies 20 years ago, embezzling hospital funds, and having poor work style. In short, he is a scumbag."
Molly pulled a small recording device from her pocket.
This was given to her by the private investigator Molly hired.
It's considered high-tech.
Molly pressed the recorder, and their conversation began to play.
But there is some noise and it is not clear which sound is which.
Besides, Ye Shaoan hadn't said a word since they entered the door.
The police officer was very cautious. "How can you prove that the voice inside was his?"
Gao Lan, who had been silent the whole time, stepped forward, walked in front of the police, and spoke weakly, "I can testify that I am his wife. Even if you don't take him away today, he will be placed under double supervision tomorrow. If you don't arrest him now, I'm afraid he will run away."
Gao Lan pointed to the wound on his head and said, "He beat me. If you don't take him away, he will be desperate and my life will be threatened."
The police comrades, this is considered as a witness or physical evidence. The person on the sofa didn't say a word the whole time, perhaps because he was beaten so hard that he couldn't stand up or something.
But he looked at Gao Lan with despair.
According to the procedure, these people should be taken to the police station to take a statement.
Gao Lan's body was staggering at this time, his face was pale, and the wound on his forehead had not been treated yet. He looked quite miserable.
Tang Liye said to the police comrade, "Comrade, I will take your statement. Forget about these two female comrades. She is injured and needs to be treated in time."
The police comrade glanced at Gao Lan, took a brief statement from her in the room, and then took Tang Liye and Ye Shaoan away.
Ye Shaoan was pulled up from the sofa by the police. His eyes stayed on Gao Lan, and Gao Lan looked at him with empty eyes, as if she was looking at a stranger.
Ye Shaoan stopped in front of Gao Lan, and Tang Liye tried to pull Gao Lan vigilantly.
Gao Lan dodged and met Ye Shaoan's gaze.
The look in her eyes when she looked at Ye Shaoan was without a trace of emotion.
"Gao Lan, I took this step today because of you."
Ye Shaoan said in a hoarse voice, "I want to integrate into your life circle, but I can't, and I am also in pain..."
Gao Lan stood there in a daze. Facing Ye Shaoan's final explanation, she still didn't say a word.
At this moment, her mind flashed back to the scene when she first met Ye Shaoan when she was interning at the People's Hospital more than 20 years ago.
At that time, he was very clean.
His face was clean, his eyes were clean, and his white shirt was even cleaner.
Ye Shaoan always complained that she was too cold to him.
But she actually loved him.
He is too inferior, too sensitive, and too insecure!
The moment Ye Shaoan was taken away by the police, Gao Lan could no longer hold on and fell straight down. Molly hurried forward to support her.
"Gao Lan, are you okay?"
Molly helped her onto the sofa, which was stained with Ye Shaoan's blood and splashed with water by Molly, making it a mess.
She said, "Come on, I'll help you get to the bedroom and treat the wound on your forehead."
Molly helped Gao Lan to her bedroom, found the medicine box, and simply treated the wound on her forehead. Then, she helped her lie down on the bed.
She tried to pour some water for Gao Lan, but the kitchen was empty and there was no hot water.
Molly put some water on the kettle and went back to the bedroom.
"I just boiled some water. You lie down for a while while I clean up outside."
Gao Lan grabbed Molly's hand.
She looked at Molly with a guilty look on her face, “Sister-in-law, I’m sorry.”
At this point, knowing the truth, she really couldn't face Molly.
Molly patted the back of her hand and shook her head, "You have nothing to do to let us down. I know you are also a victim."
Gao Lan murmured with a sad look on her face, "I really didn't know what happened back then. I didn't know that bastard would do such a heartless thing."
But in the end, it was because she didn't handle the relationship between the two of them well that she ended up implicating others.
Molly chuckled, "I believe you."
Although Molly was understanding and could forgive her, Gao Lan really didn't know how to face her.
Not only could she not face Tang Liye and Molly, she couldn't face Tang Min either.
Tang Min saved Gao Zheng's life and is the benefactor of the Gao family. Her parents both like Tang Min so much.
After their family learned about Tang Min's identity, they were all very sad.
Everyone felt sorry for what she had gone through.
Now she suddenly told her that all the suffering Tang Min had endured in the past 20 years was largely due to Ye Shaoan.
The man she had been married to for more than twenty years.
How could she face everyone?
Gao Lan lay on the bed with gauze wrapped around her forehead and her eyes dull and lifeless. The more Molly ignored her, the more uncomfortable she felt.
"Sister-in-law, I'm too slow. I've lived with that man for so many years, but I didn't notice anything. It was me who asked him to find a doctor for you. Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..." Gao Lan's heart was filled with guilt and self-blame, and his expression was in pain.
Molly sat beside the bed and held her hand, comforting her softly, "Gao Lan, calm down. I know you have nothing to do with that incident. I have never blamed you. You were kind enough to ask him to introduce a doctor to me. You can only say that you can never know a person's heart.
Once they have that intention, even if you don’t ask him to find a doctor for me, they will have other means.”
Molly did not take her anger out on Gao Lan because of that incident.
She herself did not trust Gao Lan's character.
Gao Lan was still worried, and explained, "Sister-in-law, Liye and I have been innocent since childhood, and there is no relationship like what Ye Shaoan said, please don't misunderstand."
This was one of the reasons why she couldn't face Molly.
Molly chuckled, "I know."
"Ye Shaoan did everything behind your back. Whether it was corruption or other things, you are the victim. Don't worry, the organization will investigate it thoroughly and make him bear the due punishment. You will not be implicated. Just lie down and take care of yourself."
"Sister-in-law, I'm fine."
Molly suggested, "Why don't you go back to live with Uncle Gao? You'll feel better with them around. It's easy to get depressed if you lie here alone."
They were a little worried about leaving Gao Lan alone at home.
Gao Lan shook her head. "No, I don't want my parents to know about this for now. They are old and they can't bear some things."
It was because he was afraid of making her parents sad that his marriage with Ye Shaoan had been maintained for so many years, even though it was in name only.
But in the end...
Gao Lan looked at Molly sincerely and said slowly, "Sister-in-law, say sorry to Xiao Min for me."
"You don't need to apologize. Those bastards will pay for their actions."
