"At first, he could help my father and me with fishing in the village, but later on, for some reason, he always wanted to go to the port city.
He said I could make a lot of money there and let my children and I live a good life.
But it's not so easy to get to this port city! I just thought he was talking and didn't take it to heart.
But before the Lunar New Year last year, he suddenly disappeared! My family and I searched for him for a while, but there was no news of him.
I just gave up on this idea!
I thought that this man might have remembered the past and returned to his previous home!
But just last week, he suddenly came back!
He also brought me five hundred yuan and two beautiful sets of clothes.
I also asked him where he had been these days?
He just told me that he had found a job outside and could make a lot of money! He told me to just take the money and live my life with the kids, and not to ask too many questions.
Then he stayed at home for two nights and left in a hurry again!
And then... today, they came to my house and brought me here..."
The woman finished her story haltingly and begged for mercy again.
"That's all I know! I've told you everything. As for whether he stole your things, what he stole, and where he hid them? I really don't know anything!"
Seeing that this woman didn't seem to be lying, Tang Zhan frowned and looked up at Sister Fang with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.
"You said you're from the Zhou family? Then, with all due respect, may I ask, are the drugs you're looking for real? Also, what's your relationship with Zhou Jingrui?"
In fact, when Sister Fang mentioned the Zhou family in Gangcheng, Tang Zhan began to have doubts in his heart!
No other! Just because Zhou Jingrui was his child's godfather, he still paid some attention to the Zhou family.
The Zhou family has indeed had a lot of contact with the higher-ups in the past two years, and has also provided a lot of financial and pharmaceutical support.
But all of this is clear! There are also special departments to coordinate with us, and the security measures are very comprehensive! There is absolutely no possibility of goods being lost.
Moreover, with the Zhou family's current power and assets, there is obviously no need to engage in any sneaky tricks.
According to this, the identity of this Sister Fang and what she just said are obviously untenable.
"How do you know Mr. Zhou?"
When she heard him mention Zhou Jingrui, a hint of surprise flashed across Sister Fang's eyes!
Obviously, no one expected that the person who suddenly broke in had a close relationship with Zhou Jingrui.
This time, she was planning to do something covert, taking advantage of the Zhou family's delivery of goods to the higher-ups, hoping to make a small fortune in secret!
That's a two-hundred-dollar Swiss watch! The cost alone must be over a hundred thousand!
I was thinking of doubling my fortune in mainland China! Who would have thought that I would be wiped out like this without any explanation?
Sister Fang was a powerful figure in Hong Kong City. This time it was just a matter of convenience, so there was no need for her to go there in person.
Or she heard from her subordinates that Young Master Zhou had been traveling back and forth to the mainland frequently recently and seemed particularly interested in the mainland's development. Out of curiosity, she decided to come and take a look.
She had never thought that when she personally checked in the goods, such a huge mistake would happen! Not only were the goods lost, but she didn't even have a clue what the thief looked like!
Now she was being interrogated like a criminal. How could she possibly swallow this?!
Knowing that this was not the time to lose her temper, she took a deep breath to suppress the irritability in her heart and swept her eyes over Tang Zhan again.
"I didn't expect you to know Mr. Zhou?
Then I have to ask first, what is your relationship with Mr. Zhou? As far as I know, the Zhou family has no relatives in the mainland! "
"Don't worry about my relationship with him. I don't need to prove anything to you!"
Tang Zhan naturally would not fall into the trap of self-provenness, and he kept his own train of thought.
"On the contrary, if you can't explain your relationship with the Zhou family, I'll have the higher-ups conduct a thorough investigation! See if there's anything missing from the goods the Zhou family recently shipped to the mainland..."
He stretched out the last few words, making them sound meaningful.
When Sister Fang heard this, she felt a chill down her spine!
The Zhou family's goods had already entered the country safely, so how could there be anything missing? Wouldn't she be completely exposed if she were to investigate?
She really had a bad start this time, and she was unlucky for the rest of her life!
Who would have thought that interrogating a petty thief would bring bad luck to himself!
"I'm Zhou Jingrui's stepmother! Are you satisfied with this?"
Sister Fang bit her lower lip tightly, looking angry, helpless and frustrated.
In Hong Kong City, she had Mr. Zhou to protect her, and had never been forced to this point!
Who would have thought that after coming to the mainland, she would suffer nothing but humiliation that made her angry!
Maybe she is not compatible with this continent?
When I return to Hong Kong City, I must find a master to exorcise the evil spirits!
“Puff!”
Ye Jingnan couldn't help but cover his mouth. He was really amused by this bloody plot!
Even if he didn't know Mr. Zhou, he could tell that he was an adult!
Look at the age of this woman...the old man of the Zhou family is still strong and healthy!
Tang Zhan: “…”
Hearing her say this, he really didn't know what to say for a moment!
He knew about the opening of Hong Kong City during this period.
Who would have thought that Mr. Zhou, who is already so old, would find such a young stepmother for Zhou Jingrui!
Judging from her age, this woman is a few years younger than Zhou Jingrui, right?
But no matter what!
According to seniority, this woman can be considered the godmother of her three children.
Thinking of this, the cold and hard expression on his face couldn't help but disappear.
"Ahem!" He coughed twice to hide the embarrassment on his face, and then asked,
"They are from the Zhou family. As far as I know, all the goods in the Zhou family are handled by dedicated personnel. How could they be stolen? Could you please tell us so that we can see if there is any way to remedy the situation?"
Although Tang Zhan's words were still a question, his tone was obviously much softer than before.
