Chapter 273 Second Request for Help
Every time Xu Zhengnan saw me coming to the study, he would subconsciously turn off the computer, and if he was on the phone, he would hang up.
This has never happened before because even if I heard what he was doing, I basically didn't understand.
"I need to finalize this investment during this period, so I'm quite busy." Xu Zhengnan took the fruit plate from my hand and said, "What's wrong? Are you bored again?"
I am indeed bored and have not even had the energy to paint lately.
"No, I just feel that you are working too hard, working with an injury," I replied.
Xu Zhengnan smiled and said, "I'm not tired. After I finish this work, I plan to take a break for a while, and wait until the baby is born to accompany you."
"Really?" I was a little surprised. Maybe it was because of hormones, I have been extremely afraid of loneliness recently and always hope to have someone around to accompany me.
But I was too embarrassed to say it out loud because it would seem pretentious.
"Well, you and the child are the most important things right now." He stood up and walked over to me, hugging me. "As for the wedding, when do you want to hold it?"
I want to wait until after the baby is born because I'm worried that my body won't be able to handle it. I've been feeling increasingly uncomfortable lately and the doctor's advice is to get more rest.
I shared my idea with Xu Zhengnan and he had no objection.
After we chatted for a while, his cell phone rang urgently. He looked at the caller ID and then looked at me. Although he didn't say anything, I understood what he meant.
So I tactfully left the study on my own.
And closed the door.
However, Xu Zhengnan’s reactions planted the seeds of uneasiness in my heart. I always felt that something bad was being hidden from me.
As soon as I went downstairs, my cell phone rang. The nanny came over and told me that the cell phone rang twice.
It was Jiang Fang calling.
I remembered Shen Yixiao's warning to me, asking me not to interfere in Lu Xiaoyun's revenge on the Jiang family. Now that I am pregnant, if I insist on getting involved in this dispute, it will be tantamount to asking for trouble.
The phone rang again and again. I endured it for a while, and finally answered it.
"Thank God, you finally answered the phone! Li Yue, please help me again. A group of people broke into my house and took my parents away. Now their whereabouts are unknown. I have called the police, but it will take time. I feel that they were sent by Shen Yixiao. Can you help me plead with him? Don't touch my parents!" Jiang Fang started crying as she spoke.
"I can't do anything about this matter. I can't go to Shen Yixiao to plead for mercy. Jiang Fang, just wait for the police's result." I refused cruelly.
Jiang Fang burst into tears immediately, "I can't wait! When they took my parents away, they were beaten all over. I know it must be Lu Xiaoyun's revenge, and Shen Yixiao is just helping her vent her anger. If it drags on, my parents might die. Li Yue, can you help me again? Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Just consider it as accumulating merit, and God will bless you!"
I felt bad. Lu Xiaoyun's vicious revenge on the Jiang family who raised me was beyond my expectation.
In this respect, I think she is very similar to Shen Yixiao.
Suddenly, I thought of what Shen Yixiao had done in China. Since no one reported the case, he could not be held accountable. If I use the Jiang family's affairs this time to completely trap him in China and let him accept legal sanctions, wouldn't that be just right?
Thinking of this, I was moved.
"Jiang Fang, I can help you, but I also need you to help me," I replied.
"How do you want me to help you? Tell me!" Jiang Fang answered anxiously.
I said, "After I help you rescue your parents, you must sue Shen Yixiao and Lu Xiaoyun and keep pestering them. If you need witnesses to prove what they did, you must stand up."
Jiang Fang fell into silence.
She now wishes to cut off all ties with Shen Yixiao and Lu Xiaoyun, never meet them again, and avoid revenge, but I asked her to sue Shen Yixiao and Lu Xiaoyun.
Isn't this just asking for trouble?
After a long while, she asked weakly, "Can you promise to take them both down? I'm afraid they will retaliate against me again."
I thought about it, if we can find evidence of Shen Yixiao's crimes in China and let Jiang Fang sue him for this, then other people will definitely reveal his other crimes.
"It should be possible, but I can't guarantee it 100%. If it fails, I can give you some money and you can take your parents and run away." I answered truthfully.
Jiang Fang thought for a moment and finally agreed, "Then can you help me find my parents as soon as possible? I'm really worried about them..."
As she spoke, she began to curse Lu Xiaoyun, mainly accusing her of being ungrateful and cruel.
There is no point in scolding these people. What we need to do now is to find a way to rescue Jiang Fang's parents.
Based on my understanding of Shen Yixiao and the others, there is a high probability that they are really capable of taking ruthless action.
Without further ado, I hung up Jiang Fang's phone call and sent a message to Meng Zicheng: Meng Zicheng, is Shen Yixiao back from Country M?
Meng Zicheng replied surprisingly quickly: Yes, what’s wrong? My sister-in-law likes the desserts from the Scandinavian Hotel, so Brother Xiao specially packed some for her and sent them to her, then returned without any hesitation.
You're talking a bunch of nonsense, aren't you just trying to make me envious and jealous?
He may still think that part of the reason why I am with Xu Zhengnan is to take revenge on Shen Yixiao.
Me: Did you go to find Jiang Fang’s parents? Did Lu Xiaoyun ask you to do this?
Meng Zicheng replied a little slower this time: What’s it got to do with you?
I was too lazy to talk nonsense and just sent him the video.
The next second, Meng Zicheng sent me several 60-second voice messages, all scolding me.
Then he posted a bunch of abusive emoticons.
It makes me want to laugh.
I continued to ask: Where are Jiang Fang’s parents now?
Meng Zicheng: Do you think I will tell you?
Me: Then I will send the video to Shen Yixiao, and then you and he will have a falling out, and Lu Xiaoyun will also suffer because she is pregnant.
Meng Zicheng sent me a few more 60-second voice messages.
This time I didn’t click to listen, but just asked again: What have you done to Jiang Fang’s parents? If you help me this time, I can destroy the video completely.
By that time, Shen Yixiao would most likely be brought to justice. The existence of this video would not have much significance. It was worth it if it could be exchanged for the lives of Jiang Fang's parents and the evidence of their illegal crimes.
Meng Zicheng ignored me. I knew he was considering it, so I gave him some time.
A few minutes later, he called me and I quickly answered the phone, "Have you figured it out?"
"Can you really destroy that video?" he asked suspiciously.
"Of course, we can meet, and I'll format my phone in front of you," I answered calmly, "If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do. Have you seen me send the video to Shen Yixiao during this period? No, right? I always keep my word."
