For several days in a row, Shen Yan did not try to explain to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu's mind started racing, going through all the things she should and shouldn't think about.
get out of class dismissed.
Chen Yu's phone rang in her pocket. She eagerly reached out to grab it, hoping it would be Chen Yan calling.
But to my surprise, it was Li Ziyun calling.
"Hello, Mom?"
Chen Yu softened his tone and called her name, but all he heard from the other end was Li Ziyun's sobbing.
This made Chen Yu immediately realize that something was wrong.
"What's wrong, Mom? Did you and Dad have a fight?"
Li Ziyun's choked voice finally came out, and Chen Yu only heard a few words clearly: Chen Kang had been arrested.
She wouldn't listen to anything else.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Yu anxiously asked her advisor for a week's leave.
I bought a ticket for the next high-speed train home.
Chen Yu felt heavy-hearted. She held back her tears, feeling a heavy weight of emotions weighing on her.
Back home.
Li Ziyun sat on the sofa, sobbing uncontrollably. Chen Yu, without even putting her things down, rushed to the sofa and sat down, comforting Li Ziyun while asking about what had happened.
It turned out that someone came down to check and found 200,000 yuan in cash in Chen Kang's drawer.
The last thing Chen Kang said to Li Ziyun was that he absolutely did not do that, he did not do such a thing, and he would never let his child be ashamed to face others.
Chen Yu couldn't help but shed tears as she listened.
She quickly thought about it and realized that nothing like that had ever happened.
Why did this happen so suddenly?
Chen Yu couldn't understand it at all. After crying in Li Ziyun's arms for a while, she started looking for a lawyer.
They also found a subordinate who had close contact with Chen Kang.
But it turned out that they didn't want to get involved at all, directly rejected Chen Yu's request, and even kicked him out.
In an instant, Chen Yu felt a dramatic change.
She ran around for many days, contacting everyone she could, including close relatives and friends, hoping to get some help.
But when something really happens, everyone tries to avoid it.
Clinging to her last glimmer of hope, Chen Yu knocked on the door of her father's friend's house.
This is Chen Kang's only friend besides Chen Yu's stern parents, who is also Li Mo's father, Li Yuanhao.
"Uncle Li...could you...?"
"Child, I know why you've come. Please come in."
A wave of bitterness washed over Chen Yu; this was the first person to invite her into his home.
“Uncle Li, you know that my father isn’t that kind of person.”
"Yu Yu, calm down. Uncle Li knows everything, but there's nothing he can do about it."
Chen Yu understood what Li Yuanhao meant. She stood up as soon as she sat down. She knew that she shouldn't place her hopes on these strangers. Even her relatives would avoid her if they saw her.
"Excuse me, Uncle Li, I'll head back now."
No matter how much Li Yuanhao called after her, Chen Yu didn't turn around and went out.
Li Mo listened to his father's conversation with Chen Yu in his room, and sighed as he looked at his computer.
Chen Yu dragged her tired body home, where the lights in the living room were off.
"Mom, why aren't the lights on?"
Chen Yu's weary voice echoed throughout the living room, even producing a faint echo.
She turned on the living room light and found Li Ziyun lying on the sofa, holding a white envelope in her hand.
The blood on my wrist had dried.
Chen Yu trembled as she took out her phone and dialed 120.
When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor only glanced at them, didn't say much, calculated the time of death, and reported it.
Upon hearing this result, Chen Yu lost her balance and fainted.
The nurse checked Chen Yu's emergency contacts; two of the numbers were unreachable, only one was reachable.
"What is your relationship with Chen Yu?"
"What's wrong?"
"She fainted in the hospital, could you come over?"
"Hospital? Which hospital?"
Shen Yan's hand holding the phone trembled. When the nurse said it was a hospital near his home, he completely panicked.
He didn't know when Chen Yu went back.
Shen Yan took the fastest bus back and arrived in less than an hour.
He rushed to the hospital and asked a nurse, only to find out that Chen Yu had already woken up.
They've already gone home.
Shen Yan took out his phone and dialed Chen Yu's number.
The call was connected, but no one answered.
After thinking it over, Chen Yu realized he had nowhere to go and could only go home.
Shen Yan hurriedly returned home from the hospital.
He entered the password to open the door, and a small light was on in the living room.
"How did you faint in the hospital?"
Shen Yan looked at Chen Yu sitting on the sofa. Her face was very pale. In just a few days, Shen Yan felt that Chen Yu had lost weight.
After waiting for a long time, Chen Yu didn't say a word, but stared blankly at the TV in the house.
Chen Yan sat down beside her helplessly, and Chen Yu seemed to only then notice him, "Why are you back?"
Her voice was hoarse, as if she had been crying for a long time.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Where's Aunt Yun?"
Shen Yan frowned, brushed the hair that was stuck to Chen Yu's face, and looked around the house before realizing that neither Chen Kang nor Li Ziyun were home.
Perhaps it was because Li Ziyun was mentioned that Chen Yu burst into tears.
But she had already shed tears, and not a single tear could flow from her eyes.
All I can do is cry.
Shen Yan was startled by Chen Yu's sudden outburst. He stepped forward and hugged Chen Yu, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault these past few days. I didn't explain things to you properly. It's all my fault."
Hearing Shen Yan's belated apology, Chen Yu suddenly felt that nothing mattered anymore. In the face of life and death, everything else was trivial.
Since they couldn't get through to Chen Yu by phone, the police called Shen Yan's cell phone instead.
"May I ask your relationship with Chen Kang?"
The voice on the other end sounded unfriendly, and his stern expression changed.
"Who are you?"
"I'm from the police station. We need to interview family members. You're his son, right?"
Chen Yu leaned on Shen Yan's shoulder. She heard everything clearly. Shen Yan wasn't a member of their family, but his household registration had been transferred to their household.
No matter what, they'll be found out.
Chen Yu wanted to explain to him, but Shen Yan hung up the phone shortly after, saying, "Wait for me at home, I'll be back soon."
"No, don't leave me at home."
Chen Yu looked at Shen Yan with red eyes, her gaze filled with sorrow. Shen Yan took her hand and led her to the police station.
Just as the police were about to contact Chen Yu, the two of them arrived together.
"You are Chen Yu, right? You are Chen Kang's daughter, right? We need your assistance in the investigation again."
"I've already said I don't know anything, so don't ask me anymore."
