Chapter 99 Surprise
Han Zhan went out in the evening.
Said something happened.
Shi Yin didn't ask any more questions and walked him to the gate, watching the Cullinan disappear at the end of the tree-lined avenue. She turned around and was about to go back to the house when she saw the housekeeper rushing out in a hurry.
Holding her cell phone.
It is already a call interface.
A landline number, surprisingly, belonged to the Chaoyang District Police Station in Beijing. As if anticipating the call, Shi Yin picked up the phone and slowly put it to her ear. Then, the person on the other end said, "Miss Shi Yin?"
"I am."
"Cheng Lan is your mother, right?"
"Yes."
"We've received a report that Shi Qinghe deliberately murdered Cheng Lan. As the only immediate family member, please come to the Chaoyang District Police Station as soon as possible."
…
Half an hour later.
The Macan was parked on the side of the road.
Shi Yin got out of the car and went straight to the police station.
People were walking in the quiet hall. As an iron door opened, Shi Qinghe's sharp voice suddenly came from inside, piercing everyone's eardrums.
Some people are dissatisfied.
Some people looked at him with disdain.
The daughter of a wealthy family, born with a silver spoon in her mouth and living a life of luxury, has such low moral character. Yesterday, at a wedding, she was caught having an affair with her sister's fiancé. Today, she stabbed her own mother with a knife and was taken to the police station.
"Captain Lin, Miss Shi Yin is here."
The police officer called Captain Lin turned his head and saw Shi Yin who had just entered the room. The man's eyes brightened and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that although they were born to the same parents, the difference between the older sister and the younger sister was too big.
An arrogant and domineering one.
A well-behaved and gentle one.
Yet, the Shi couple favored the former and neglected the obedient one. The result? Shi Qinghe stabbed Cheng Lan and sent her to the hospital, where it was unclear whether she could survive.
Captain Lin walked over and said politely, "Miss Shi, I'm the person in charge here. Let me tell you about Shi Qinghe's current situation. He's been detained and can't be released on bail for the time being. We have to wait for news from the hospital about your mother. Only if Ms. Cheng wakes up safely and issues a letter of apology can Shi Qinghe leave."
"We couldn't reach your father, so we had to call you. As Shi Qinghe's immediate family member, you need to sign this sentencing document."
Shi Yin did as he was told.
Sign it.
He handed the document back with both hands.
She looked up at Captain Lin, who was standing before her with awe-inspiring righteousness, and asked, "Can I meet Shi Qinghe?"
"OK."
"Can I go in now?"
"Yes, but she was emotionally unstable, and it took several officers to restrain her. If you go, remember to stay away from her to avoid her accidentally hurting you."
"Thank you very much."
Shi Yin nodded and followed Captain Lin to the supervision room at the back.
There was no one on the deserted corridor.
The silence around made Shi Qinghe's shouting even more shrill.
Shi Yin pushed open the door in front of her and walked in. What came into view was Shi Qinghe, who was sitting in a wheelchair, still wearing the white wedding dress from yesterday, with messy hair and blood on her hands.
Meet Shi Yin.
Shi Qinghe, who was already on the verge of collapse, became even more crazy. He straightened his back and lunged forward, his body almost leaving the wheelchair. However, his legs could not move, and he finally fell in front of the railing.
"Are you mad because the Song family broke off your engagement?" Shi Yin looked down at her.
"Are you here to laugh at me?" Shi Qinghe struggled to get up with her arms supported. The last thing she wanted was to look embarrassed in front of Shi Yin. "So what if I cancel the engagement? I don't really love Song Sinian anyway."
"You don't love me, but you still want to snatch me away."
"As long as it's something you care about, I'll grab it."
"Are you satisfied now?"
"Stop being sarcastic!" Shi Qinghe glared at her. "Once Dad comes back from the Procuratorate's investigation and issues a letter of apology, I can walk out of here unharmed."
Shi Yin was silent.
Her cold and expressionless look was filled with utter contempt in Shi Qinghe's eyes. Shi Qinghe couldn't stand it anymore and roared, "I won't lose, I will never lose to you! Whether it's my parents' love, my position in the Shi family, or even snatching Song Sinian away, I am far superior to you. I was, I am, and I will always be!"
"So, this is how you repay your parents who favor you?" Shi Yin asked back.
"She forced me to do this!" Shi Qinghe gripped the railing tightly with both hands, her eyes bloodshot as if they could drip blood. "My reputation is ruined, my wedding is over, and I've lost my position as Mrs. Song."
"At this time, not only did she not care about me, she also blamed me for everything. She said that I had no bottom line in order to seduce Song Sinian, and slept with him while he was engaged to you, and also said-"
Shi Qinghe choked.
Her pride prevented her from speaking.
"You still say you are not as good as me." Shi Yin said for her.
"Bullshit!" This made Shi Qinghe mad again. She stared at Shi Yin, who was a few steps away, and shouted, "How dare you compete with me? Who do you think you are?"
"So you stabbed her with a knife."
"She deserves it."
"You deserve to spend the rest of your life in jail."
"What do you mean!"
Shi Yin ignored her.
He turned and went out of the supervision room.
Looking at the woman's back as she walked away, Shi Qinghe panicked for no apparent reason. She craned her neck to stare at the direction Shi Yin had left, and screamed, "Shi Yin, are you kidding me? Are you going to use the Han family's power to take advantage of me when I'm down? You can't do this, Shi Yin, you can't!"
Outside the door.
Shi Yin walked away, but she could still hear Shi Qinghe's cries. She thanked Captain Lin, then left the police station and drove to the Jingcheng Hospital where Cheng Lan was.
In the ICU ward.
After greeting the nurse, Shi Yin lifted the curtain and walked in.
Ms. Cheng lay flat on her back, pale and covered in tubes. Only her eyes could move, and she couldn't make a sound. The doctor said the knife had pierced an aorta, causing excessive blood loss and oxygen deprivation to her brain. Although she was revived, she was likely paralyzed for life.
"I asked the doctor outside the curtain, and you should have heard the result with your own ears." Shi Yin said.
The veins at Cheng Lan's temples bulged.
Want to talk.
But I couldn't speak.
Shi Yin walked over to her and opened the latest audio recording. When Qing He's voice came out, especially when she heard the words "that's what she deserved", Cheng Lan's eyes suddenly widened, bloodshot, and she was so angry that she couldn't breathe.
"Why are you angry?"
"Shi Qinghe is your most beloved daughter."
"No matter what she did wrong, you would do everything you could to cover for her."
"Why are you angry this time?"
"Because she stabbed you?"
"You're still not generous enough."
The heart monitor at the bedside suddenly stretched into a straight line, triggering the alarm.
Medical staff rushed over.
Seeing Cheng Lan's pupils dilated, the whites of her eyes rolled back, and her heart stopped, they immediately performed CPR on her and wheeled her to the emergency room.
…
Night enveloped the earth.
Shi Yin walked up the stairs and out of the hospital gate.
She glanced at the neon lights in the distance, and her mind couldn't help but replay the time when Qinghe stole her favorite doll when she was little, and Cheng Lan scolded her: "Why are you so stingy? Just because your sister took a small toy from you, you cried with red eyes and nose?"
She was just copying what she had said before.
But Cheng Lan couldn't stand it.
The streets were crowded with people, and Shi Yin walked aimlessly forward. Soon, brilliant blue fireworks burst into the night sky, illuminating everyone. Everyone stopped and took out their phones to take pictures.
Shi Yin also stopped.
Look up.
The fireworks, seemingly launched from the summit of Lushan Mountain, the highest point in Beijing, were visible to the entire city. The ban on fireworks had been in place for years, and fireworks displays were generally only permitted through official organizations. Individuals seeking to set off fireworks not only required a substantial sum of money but also the application for a permit, a time-consuming and laborious process.
but.
These blue fireworks are really beautiful.
She remembered that Song Sinian had spent a huge amount of money on a blue fireworks display when Qinghe celebrated her birthday a few years ago. Compared to tonight's display, Song Sinian's was still far inferior.
The cell phone suddenly rang.
Shi Yin came to her senses and looked down to see the name 'Han Zhan' on the caller ID. She answered the call, and the man's magnetic and pleasant voice penetrated her ears: "Honey, did you see the fireworks?"
Hearing this, Shi Yinyan frowned.
Next second.
The fireworks burst into the night sky, forming the shape of a person's name: "Shi Yin."
Shi Yin was stunned for a moment. Before she could reply, the image of thousands of drones with lights on swarmed over her was reflected in her eyes, and several lines of content emerged clearly:
"Happy birthday, wife!"
