Chapter 189 Heartbreak
Xia Mufan's eyes were like lightning as he looked at Huang Jinfeng. Although his voice was not loud, it carried an inexplicable deterrent force: "Huang Chunhua, have you really confessed everything?"
When Huang Jinfeng first heard this name, she was stunned.
Chunhua, what an ancient name.
Ever since she came to Shenzhen from the village to work and met the Hong Kong businessman Liu Tianhua, she has never used this name again.
The bustling and prosperous city dazzled Huang Chunhua.
She took off her pigtails and permed her hair into big wavy curls; she changed her old clothes and put on a beautiful new dress; her accent no longer had a strong rural accent, but had a hint of Hong Kong accent.
It would be too rustic to name such a fashionable urban girl Huang Chunhua, so Huang Chunhua named herself Huang Jinfeng, which means a golden phoenix flies out of a chicken coop.
After having this new name, Huang Jinhua's life is no longer as peaceful as before. It was like a car out of control, running wildly all the way. Sometimes it would encounter dizzy bumps and bumps, and sometimes it would encounter a smooth road and speed all the way, which was extremely exciting.
Huang Jinfeng closed her eyes and pulled a bitter smile: "I didn't expect you could find out even this." Yes, after a long time, even Huang Jinfeng herself forgot that she was not a wealthy person from Hong Kong, nor was she a patriotic businesswoman with her motherland at heart. She was just a Huang Chunhua who walked out of the mountains of Hunan Province.
Xia Mufan took out a piece of information, which was the information she asked Xiao Yuanfeng from the Information Intelligence Department to help investigate Huang Jinfeng's family situation.
Xia Mufan had a cold expression and sharp eyes: "Huang Chunhua, you even concealed your birth, and you said you have explained everything you should explain?"
Huang Jinfeng's long-suppressed dissatisfaction was ignited by Xia Mufan's attitude. She gritted her teeth, and her tone was filled with undisguised disgust.
"I will never go back to that poor home."
"They keep saying that I'm a useless money-loser, but when it comes to sucking my blood, they show no mercy at all."
"It was only after I came out to work that I realized how big the world is. What they can give me is not help, but a burden."
…
Huang Jinfeng gnashed her teeth and cursed her original family for being wrong. Xia Mufan looked at her quietly. When she finally vented her anger, Xia Mufan asked, "And then?"
Huang Jinfeng said bitterly: "Then? Then I changed my name and never contacted my family again. Let them think I was dead."
Xia Mufan stood up and took out a photo from his file bag and handed it to Huang Jinfang. "We haven't seen each other for so many years. Don't you want to know how your parents and brothers and sisters are doing? This is a family photo that your eldest brother gave to the police when our Public Security Bureau comrades came to investigate. Please let us bring it to you."
Huang Jinfeng didn't want to look, but there was a voice in her heart tempting her: Look, see how those vampires are doing now, and see if those family members who once disliked her for being a girl will regret leaving her after leaving her.
After a long silence, Huang Jinfeng slowly raised her head and looked at the family photo.
Huang Jinfeng's expression suddenly changed.
Her hands were handcuffed and she was holding Ruyi, so she couldn't free her hands for a moment. She had to lean forward, squinting her eyes, trying to see the photo more clearly.
"Where's my mother?"
“Why isn’t my mom in the picture?”
"My mother just turned fifty-five this year, why isn't she in the photo?"
Huang Jinfeng raised her head and looked at Xia Mufan blankly, trying to find the answer from her face. However, she already had the answer in her heart, and this answer made her panic and frightened.
If there is anything Huang Jifeng still misses about this family, it is the honest mother who gave birth to her and raised her. She gave birth to seven children in total, three boys and four girls, and worked hard for her children all her life.
When Huang Jinfeng left her hometown, her mother quietly gave her two eggs and three rice balls, and looked at her with tears in her eyes: "Hua'er, if you are doing well outside, don't come back. Our family is too poor. I am sorry for you."
Huang Jinfeng felt bad when she saw her mother's wrinkled face, dry yellow hair and calloused hands. She made a promise to her mother: "Wait, Mom. When I make money, I will take you to the city to enjoy a good life."
But since changing her name, Huang Jinfeng has forgotten everything about her hometown. She thought her mother was still young and would always be waiting for her in her hometown. However, she did not expect that her mother, who was only 55 years old, had disappeared from the family photo.
There was a trace of compassion in Xia Mufan's eyes, and the words he said made Huang Jinfeng feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave: "Your mother died of illness three years ago."
A deep crack appeared on Huang Jinfeng's calm face. She asked in a trembling voice, "Why did she die? Three years ago, my mother was only 52 years old. Her children had grown up and started their own families. It was the happiest age for a woman. How could she die? She hadn't even seen me..."
Before he could finish his sentence, it suddenly got stuck in his throat.
Huang Jinfeng originally thought that when the company was established, when she could get rid of the name of Hong Kong businessman Huang Jinfeng and become Huang Chunhua again, she would organize a luxury car fleet to return home. With a wave of his hand, he hired a stage to set up a play and hired a construction team to tear down the dilapidated house and build a three-story villa, so that his family and the villagers could have a good look. The money-losing Huang Chunhua they had called her was back. She had made a lot of money and became a famous entrepreneur. She was no longer the country girl who was bullied by others. She was a golden phoenix that had flown out of the chicken coop!
But now, she has become a prisoner, sitting here being interrogated by the police. Even if she wants to go home and show off, it is impossible.
Now, the mother whom she most wanted to repay has passed away. What’s the point of going back to show off?
Xia Mufan stabbed Huang Jinfeng's heart again: "Three years ago, your mother had acute hepatitis. She could have survived if she had been sent to a large hospital for treatment, but because the family was poor, your father, your brother and your sister-in-law unanimously decided to give up treatment."
Before she finished speaking, Huang Jinfeng screamed in a shrill voice: "Stop talking, please, stop talking!"
Huang Jinfeng is rich. If she went back to see her mother earlier, perhaps she could fulfill her parting promise and bring her mother to the city. Even though everyone is going to die eventually, at least my mother has enjoyed the blessings of being rich.
But now, it's too late.
Three years ago.
What was she doing at that time? At that time, she had just arrived in Xing City to start a company, and with an investment of more than one million Hong Kong dollars from Liu Tianhua, she was ready to make a big splash.
If she could go back and visit at that time, or ask someone to send some money home, perhaps everything would be different.
Feeling both pain and regret, Huang Jinfeng bit her lips tightly until a taste of blood rose up in her throat, and then she stopped her almost self-abuse action.
Huang Jinfeng looked at Xia Mufan steadily and asked in a hoarse voice, "What do you mean by showing me this family photo? Do you want me to regret it?"
Her chest heaved up and down. The excitement, pain and regret in her heart, all these emotions intertwined together, made it impossible for her to remain calm.
"I tell you, I don't regret it."
"I don't want to be like my mother, who toiled for this family all her life, gave birth to six children, but in the end gave up medical treatment because she had no money, and died at the age of 52 on a broken, cold wooden bed at home."
"The world is unfair. We are both women, so why does my mother have to live such a hard life, while those rich ladies are so happy and carefree?"
“I don’t regret it!”
"I didn't come to this world to devote my life to others. I wanted to have a lot of money and enjoy all the prosperity in this world. I did it. I made a lot of money, wore the most beautiful clothes, stayed in the most luxurious hotels, and ate the most delicious meals. I enjoyed everything I should have. I think my life is worth it!"
Huang Jinfeng's almost sharp voice echoed in the interrogation room. Gong Weiguo and Feng Xiaoyu looked at each other and then at Xia Mufan at the same time.
Xia Mufan shook his head slightly, signaling them not to speak and let Huang Jinfeng vent as much as she wanted.
When Huang Jinfeng was finally tired and stopped shouting and gasping for breath, Xia Mufan said calmly, "Before your mother passed away, the only thing she cared about was you. Before she died, she was calling for Hua'er. Why didn't Hua'er come back?"
With just one sentence, Huang Jinfeng's disguised strength was exposed.
She raised her head and looked at Xia Mufan. The tears in her eyes could no longer be held back and flowed quietly down her cheeks.
"Why are you telling me this?"
"Why do you have to make me feel guilty?"
"I just want to make my life better, is that wrong?"
Feeling Huang Jinfeng's sadness, the big white cat Ruyi meowed, stuck out his tongue, and licked the back of her hand over and over again, trying to comfort his owner. But at this moment, Huang Jinfeng's mind was focused on the news of her mother's death and she had no time to care about the big white cat in her arms.
All the good feelings that Huang Jinfeng had towards Xia Mufan turned into hatred. Fire seemed to be spewing from Huang Jinfeng's eyes, and he roared at the top of his lungs.
"Even if I am Huang Chunhua, so what?"
"I don't steal or rob. I make money based on my own abilities. Why are you blaming me?"
Xia Mufan put the family photo into the file bag, slowly walked back to the interrogation table and sat down.
When Gong Weiguo saw Xia Mufan coming, he first disturbed Huang Jinfeng's mind and knocked a crack in her perfect and cold shell. He couldn't help but admire her in his heart, thinking that she was worthy of being the captain!
Now that her true identity has been acknowledged, the Hong Kong businessman identity she had previously created has been shattered. Xia Mufan turned his gaze to Gong Weiguo, pointed to the questions in the interrogation plan, and signaled him to start asking questions.
Gong Weiguo understood what he meant and began to question Huang Jinfeng about her identity and past in detail.
"Name, age, occupation."
"When did you arrive in Shenzhen? Who did you meet? What did you do?"
"Where did the Hong Kong dollars come from to buy Little Sun Company?"
"Who helped you get the Hong Kong City identity?"
…
Huang Jinfeng, who was restless and irritable, no longer had the energy to make up lies, nor was she too lazy to maintain her false identity as a wealthy person in Gangcheng. She simply gave up and told the story of how Liu Tianhua tricked her into giving birth to two children, and then brought them back to Gangcheng after giving her money. Then, she went to Gangcheng to look for him, but was beaten and thrown out.
Feng Xiaoyu, who was in charge of taking the statement, frowned as he listened. He kept writing while secretly shaking his head in his heart. I never expected that Huang Jinfeng, who looks beautiful, confident and has a strong aura, actually has such a shameful past.
Gong Weiguo asked: "Don't you know that surrogacy is illegal?"
Huang Jinfeng said with a hint of sarcasm: "Comrade police officer, on one side, rich people cannot have children, and on the other side, poor families have a lot of children. I just did some optimization matching of resources, how can it be considered illegal?"
Gong Weiguo was furious when he heard this and slammed the table heavily, "Sweet words and flattering expressions! Surrogacy is selling women's bodies and uteruses as commodities. If this isn't illegal, what is it?!"
Until now, Huang Jinfeng still didn't think that what she did was wrong: "My mother gave birth to six children, but she died because she had no money to treat her illness. She didn't sell her body and uterus, but was she happy?"
Gong Weiguo yelled, "You sold your body and womb, and sold the two children you carried for ten months to that Liu. Are you happy?"
Huang Jinfeng felt as if a sharp sword had pierced his heart, and the pain was so severe that he could not breathe.
She took a deep breath, adjusted her mentality, and responded through gritted teeth: "At least I got 1.5 million, while my mother didn't get a penny."
Gong Weiguo was speechless for a moment.
The atmosphere in the interrogation room suddenly became tense.
Xia Mufan's steady voice broke the silence.
"Huang Chunhua, do you think you have more social value than your mother? I think it's just the opposite."
"Although your mother didn't get a penny, she gave birth to each child willingly and they all grew up by her side. There was no deception or exchange of interests in her life. She lived an open and honest life with no regrets."
“You got that 1.5 million, what was your life like?
You are now handcuffed, sitting in an interrogation room, being questioned by the police. Your company has been seized and all your assets have been frozen. Even their own pets are not protected. ”
Xia Mufan's last words were as heavy as a thousand pounds, hitting Huang Jinfeng's heart hard. She hugged the big white cat tightly, feeling pain and regret in her heart.
She lost her two children to others, the company she had worked so hard to build was gone, and she couldn't even protect the big white cat she had raised for seven years.
Originally, she thought that she had enjoyed all the prosperity in this world and her life was worth it.
But I just realized today that all this was like a bubble and disappeared in an instant.
For the first time in her life, Huang Jinfeng began to doubt what she had done.
If she worked so hard but had nothing to show for it, not even a word of affirmation or praise, then was it all worth it?
After a long silence, Huang Jinfeng murmured to herself, "No! It's all worth it. I have ideals. All I do is to help those poor sisters, give them new hope, and let their labor be rewarded."
"Reward?" Xia Mufan sneered, took out a few photos from another file bag, and walked in front of Huang Jinfeng again, "How dare you say that you are helping them? Open your eyes and take a good look at what the fate of the sisters who have been surrogate mothers is like!"
The photos of Fan Lingwei and Shu Lan when they were seventeen or eighteen years old showed them to be childish and lively, but the photos now reveal a sense of lifelessness. In just three years, there is a world of difference. The energy and spirit of these innocent girls were completely taken away after they embarked on the path of surrogacy.
Xia Muchan's voice was icy cold, as if the strong wind in the cold winter of December blew up ice chips from the ground and hit people's faces, which was cold and painful.
"Seventeen or eighteen years old, the age of beauty, is really the most innocent and lovely age. Born in the countryside, their thoughts are like a blank sheet of paper, allowing you to paint whatever you want."
"You instilled in their minds the idea that having children would make a lot of money and change their lives, and you promised to protect their bodies from harm, but at the same time you planted poisonous weeds in their minds."
"Look carefully and see what they have become three years later?!"
Huang Jinfeng had already learned the fate of Fan Lingwei and Shu Lan from Gong Weiguo yesterday, but today, when she looked at the photo in Xia Mufan's hand, her heart began to tremble.
There was a flame of anger in Xia Mufan's eyes, burning Huang Jinfeng's despicable soul.
Huang Jinfeng had to admit that the fate of these two girls today was indeed caused by her.
Huang Jinfeng stammered, "At first, I had good intentions."
Xia Mufan sneered: "Good intentions! Do you know what kind of consequences your so-called good intentions will cause?"
"The womb becomes a tool for trading and babies become commodities. Such a dirty industry will make the world even more unfair!"
"Girls from poor families will become tools for reproduction."
"Young girls will be trafficked and sent to captive breeding bases to wait for childbirth."
"You, me, her, anyone could be put in a sack and dragged away on the way home late at night, and when we wake up, we could be tied to a bed and abused by the rich who can afford it, lying on the operating table, allowing cold instruments to be inserted into our bodies, deciding the life or death of the fetus in our belly!"
Huang Jinfeng's face became paler and paler. She tried to explain herself: "I, I didn't! I prepared good accommodation for the girls. I will try my best to ensure their safety..."
“Shameless!”
Xia Mufan's voice suddenly increased, startling Huang Jinfeng so much that she leaned back unconsciously, and the big white cat also trembled with fear.
"Huang Chunhua, you are also the daughter of a poor family!"
"You have also suffered the heart-wrenching pain of separation from your own flesh and blood!"
"How can you be so cruel as to drag other girls down this path of no return?!"
