Captain Lei was also touched. He frowned and said, "Okay, we will get to the bottom of this."
"By the way, Lin Nan also called the police. When we rushed over, she was already unconscious. She has been sent to the hospital, and we don't know her exact condition."
Zhou Jiyun understood: "We will go check it out later. Thank you, Captain Lei, for letting us know."
After leaving the criminal police team, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, feeling refreshed. Now that all the evidence they had was in the hands of the police, it all depended on their efficiency.
Yun Xu put his arm around Zhou Jiyun's shoulder and said, "Have you heard that your grandfather has found any information yet? It's almost eleven o'clock in the evening."
Zhou Jiyun shrugged. "He should have received it. After all, Zhou Zhida is a celebrity, so someone would have informed the old man. What's more, the case was closed so easily as an accident back then. I secretly think that grandpa must have helped cover it up."
Yun Xu patted his shoulder and said, "Oh, how pitiful it is to meet such a biased and unreasonable old man."
He doesn't even call them elders. Only those who are sensible and have correct values are called elders, okay?
Zhou Jiyun sighed, but the strength of his grip on Xie Jing's hand increased by three points. It was obvious that he was not so calm inside. Zhou Jiyun understood that after he reported the case, the little affection between him and Mr. Zhou was almost gone.
Because his parents have passed away. No matter how good they were in life, the dead can never win over the living. After all these years, the old man probably doesn't have much affection for his parents anymore.
Especially after he suppressed Zhou Jiwen and Zhou Zhida's family's situation became increasingly worse, the old man completely sided with the second wife. It was clear at a glance which was more important, the eldest son and his wife who had been sleeping underground for more than a decade, or the youngest son who was alive and well before him.
Xie Jing took Zhou Jiyun's arm and said, "Revenge is a solitary journey. It's already very difficult for the two of us to be together this long. How can we expect everyone else to stand in your shoes?"
Zhou Jiyun took a deep breath and put his arm around Xie Jing's waist: "Yes, having you is enough for me."
Mr. Zhou usually goes to bed at nine o'clock. He used to have good sleep quality, but tonight he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. After finally falling asleep, he was woken by the ringing of his cell phone.
The old man half sat up, and Butler Zhong came in with a cell phone. "Master, the criminal police team took Zhida away, and the ambulance went to Jiangnan Garden. Lin Nan was sent to the hospital. It was said that his life was in danger when he was taken away. He was unconscious."
The old man's arms, which had been supporting him halfway up, suddenly loosened, and he fell heavily onto the bed. Butler Zhong hurried over to prepare a quick-acting heart pill: "At this critical moment, you have to hold on!"
After barely calming himself down, Old Man Zhou leaned against the headboard of the bed: "How else can I hold on? I've been helping him for fifteen years. He's done something wrong, and he'll have to pay for it..."
"Things are different now. In the past, I could always get away with it as long as I thought of a way. Now... it's difficult. Ji Yun has done all this, there's no way he'll let it go easily..."
Butler Zhong was very cautious. "It's not necessarily Master Jiyun who did it, right?"
He also knew that what he said was nonsense. If it wasn't Zhou Jiyun who did it, who else could it be? The Lu family's relatives were all abroad. The only person in China who had a relationship with Zhou Zhihong and Lu Wen was Zhou Jiyun.
It couldn't possibly be Zhou Jiwen, could it? Zhou Zhida was his biological father, and reporting Zhou Zhida wouldn't do him any good.
Although Butler Zhong was old, he was well-informed. He glanced at his phone again and said, "I heard from the people at Jiangnan Garden that it was Lin Nan who called the police to report Zhida. He was halfway through the conversation when the call was disconnected. I guess Zhida happened to bump into him, and he got carried away and did what he did."
"He's already over fifty, and he's still so emotional?" Old Master Zhou snorted coldly, "Alright, I already know what's going on. It's getting late, you should go back and rest."
Butler Zhong was surprised: "You're not going to the police station?"
The old man closed his eyes, looking much older for a moment. "What should I say to the police? The second brother owes the eldest brother so much. He has been hiding it for so many years. He has had enough of the good life he has had."
"My boss, he's not even forty yet..."
"And the Lu family... they are all debts owed by our Zhou family..."
Butler Zhong gently opened the door and walked out. Looking up at the crescent moon in the sky, he murmured, "The sky has changed, it has changed..."
Even after arriving home, Zhou Jiyun still hadn't received a call from the old mansion. He lowered his eyes slightly and quickly smiled. In the past, if there was anything, the old man would call him quickly.
But now, things have fermented so intensely, and there has been no movement in the old house until now. Zhou Jiyun knows that his grandfather is blaming him. Although he no longer has any expectations of his grandfather, Zhou Jiyun still feels wronged.
He didn't feel wronged for himself, but for his father. Because his father was gone, even his biological father didn't remember him, didn't remember how outstanding he had been, and he died a violent death, but no one sought justice for him.
Xie Jing easily noticed Zhou Jiyun's depressed mood. After everyone went back to their rooms to rest, she opened her arms towards Zhou Jiyun and said, "Zhou Jiyun, come here."
Zhou Jiyun stood there looking at her. Xie Jing had said this to him twice before, and this was the third time. But each time, he was in a low mood.
And every time at this time, Xie Jing stood there like a green pine. Although she was thin and weak, she still used her slender body to hold up the sky for him.
She generously told him with her actions that even if the whole world abandoned her, she would still open her arms to her.
"Zhou Jiyun, come here." Seeing that Zhou Jiyun didn't move, Xie Jing whispered again. Zhou Jiyun was pulled back from his memories. Seeing that Xie Jing was still looking at him with her arms open, he took a few quick steps and successfully embedded himself in Xie Jing's arms.
Xie Jing stumbled after being knocked down by him, and fell onto the big bed. Fortunately, Zhou Jiyun still had some sense and remembered to support her waist and the back of her head when she fell.
But after they fell onto the big bed in each other's arms, Zhou Jiyun fell silent. Xie Jing hugged his back and said, "You did a great job. As a child, you did the right thing."
Zhou Jiyun was silent for a long time before he whispered, "Grandpa...he has resentment in his heart."
Xie Jing stroked his back. "So what if he has grievances? He taught Zhou Zhida to be so ruthless and heartless. He should bear the consequences. It's not fair for us to bear the pain alone."
"It's unfair to you, and even more unfair to your parents. Just because they're gone doesn't mean we should ignore their grievances and resentments. That would be too cruel to them."
