Chapter 457 Jiangling Restaurant
Xia Jinning suddenly widened her eyes, good man, little beauty, you are so considerate!
"My baby, you are afraid that I will miss this clue."
Little Beauty laughed and laughed, but did not reply, for fear that the boss would find out that she was deliberately letting him go.
Xia Jinning couldn't help but get excited, and planned to go back to the space and look for news on the Internet.
Editor-in-Chief Han had paid all the wages for the past few days early in the morning, so Xia Jinning just picked up her bag and prepared to go off work.
As soon as she came downstairs and onto the road, Xia Jinning immediately raised her vigilance, someone was watching her.
Feng Chao and Chen Minyi were both waiting by the roadside. Xia Jinning had nothing to worry about, so she turned around and looked over.
She found out... it was Ren Zheng.
Ren Zheng glanced at the Fengyue Magazine on the third floor, then nodded at Xia Jinning.
He turned and left. Xia Jinning understood immediately and followed him.
No matter what his purpose was, she needed to find out from Ren Zheng what happened seven years ago, why it was related to the Lin family, and why it was related to the truth of her death in her previous life.
Ren Zheng came to the park next to him, stopped in a relatively spacious place with few people around, turned around and waited for Xia Jinning to come over.
It gets dark earlier in winter, and now is lunchtime, so there aren't many people in the park. Xia Jinning didn't disguise her face,
but the mask, hat, and scarf are good for concealment.
"Brother Zheng, do you have something to talk to me about?"
Ren Zheng was wearing a gray cotton jacket with frayed cuffs, some whitish jeans, and old Martin boots with creases all over them.
Just a casual glance and you can tell that his current living conditions are not particularly good, and when he just came back in the afternoon, he heard the argument between him and Editor-in-Chief Han.
Although I don't know the specifics of what happened back then, I can guess roughly.
Ren Zheng nodded, "I don't mean to morally blackmail or force you, it's just that the last unfinished building incident and this undercover visit made me feel that we are the same kind of people.
I'll talk first and you listen first. I'll only narrate what happened, without any emotional color.
Do you think... can you give me a few minutes?"
Xia Jinning nodded decisively, "You go."
"You should know my identity. I was originally a member of Fengyue, but I was expelled later."
Xia Jinning went straight to the point, "I have already checked the information about your personal situation this afternoon.
What event did you report 7 years ago? I looked for scans of all the journals on my computer and found that only one issue was missing 7 years ago. No one I asked was willing to talk about it.
Just tell me. "
Ren Zheng's eyes seemed to brighten up suddenly, and a glimmer of hope emerged in his heart.
"Jiangling Restaurant, do you know that a girl came to the newspaper to submit an article, saying that when she was a waitress in Jiangling Restaurant, she was forcibly dragged into a private room and humiliated.
She wanted to call the police directly after getting out of trouble, but the other party... gave the girl's parents 50,000 yuan to achieve a settlement.
The girl's family kept the girl at home for nearly a month, and the best time to call the police was missed.
But she still went to the police, but her family kept saying that she had mental problems and was reporting a false case. She just wanted to retaliate because she was fired from the hotel and held a grudge. A
case was originally filed, but it was left unresolved.
I reported this matter, and then not only did the newspaper suspend publication and transform, I also lost my job and became lame in my leg."
Xia Jinning was stunned, "Jiangling Restaurant"
"Yes!"
Of course Xia Jinning knew about Jiangling Restaurant. This restaurant... was opened by the father of her high school classmate. When they graduated, all the classmates of Class 1 of Senior 3 had a reunion there.
"How is that girl now?"
"She was infected with AIDS. The person who bullied her at that time must be an HIV carrier. Her family didn't care about her at all. After so many years, she can't stand it anymore."
Ren Zheng was helpless.
Although today's society is an era of self-media, everything is open and transparent.
You can report anything with your real name and ID card, but... you have to know that it's because you are not strong enough to report.
Over the years, Ren Zheng has also tried to expose the matter through short videos or Weibo Fanqie and other platforms, but... it's not only in vain.
He also suffered a series of blows and retaliations.
His wife suddenly had an affair and divorced him. The landlord suddenly raised the rent for the house he rented.
It was also difficult to find a job. Even if he found one, he would be fired soon. He also encountered resistance when he was treated in the hospital. The doctor was unwilling to examine his legs properly.
Or he would be beaten up for no reason.
Even the girl said that she wanted to give up, but Ren Zheng had been insisting. On
the first day of becoming a reporter.
Ren Zheng wanted to speak for all those who could not speak, and let his pen write about all the injustices in the world.
What a pity.
He debuted and reached the peak, but the peak died prematurely. Over the years, Ren Zheng tried all possible ways, but he never saw a ray of hope.
Xia Jinning was full of doubts. Jiangling Restaurant was the property of Lin Shiran's father. This matter was related to Lin Shiran's father.
What was the relationship between Lin Shiran's father and the Lin family?
Xia Jinning seemed to have suddenly thought of something and immediately picked up his phone to check the Internet.
Good guy, he is really a family member. Lin Jue, Lin Shiran's father, is also Lin Yi's younger brother and his second uncle.
So, Lin Shiran is still his cousin .
Xia Jinning suddenly recalled that after recognizing the relatives, Xia Jinning also talked about this second uncle with his family, but many years ago, the second uncle had a quarrel with the grandfather.
Until now, the grandfather still does not allow the second uncle and his family to enter the house.
In the early years, although the industries of Nanshi Lin also belonged to the Lin Group, they have been gradually separated in recent years.
Ren Zheng saw Xia Jinning frowning and saying nothing, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was
just daydreaming. How could a new idol who had just become famous compete with powerful capital? One wrong step would lead to hell. Ren Zheng regretted his impulse today.
He was afraid that if things were not done well, one more person would be implicated.
"I didn't think about it..."
"Come and scan the code and add WeChat." Xia Jinning took out his mobile phone and showed his business card.
"Uh... okay..."
Xia Jinning directly transferred 1 million. Ren Zheng looked down at his mobile phone and was startled for a moment. He quickly said, "That's not what I meant. What are you doing?"
