Chapter 79 Using Yourself as Bait



Jiang Zao didn't say anything more, but simply held Zheng Xiao in her arms, and the two slept together all night.

The next morning, Zheng Xiao had a scheduled event, so she left early.

After she left, Fu Yanci felt that the whole ward became more pleasing to the eye.

The mistress who had taken over his wife's position has finally left.

Because Madam Fu was also hospitalized, breakfast was delivered by Fu Yinhe.

“Zaozao, I heard from Mom that the person who planted the bomb is likely the man who eloped with my eldest sister back then, is that right?” Fu Yinhe asked.

Since Madam Fu had already spoken, Jiang Zao had nothing left to hide.

She nodded: "It's definitely not a coincidence that he was there; it's most likely him."

Fu Yinhe served Jiang Zao a bowl of soup, her lips trembling slightly as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

Jiang Zao noticed this too and asked, "Second Sister, why don't you just say what you want to say?"

Fu Yinhe then spoke up: "Actually, my eldest sister contacted me ten years ago."

Jiang Zao and Fu Yanci, who was floating beside her, were both surprised.

Ten years ago, that was when Eric was executed.

"Why did your older sister contact you?" Jiang Zao asked.

Fu Yinhe sighed, "When my eldest sister was young, she was the most business-minded person in the Fu family. She bought a lot of properties in the suburbs when she was a teenager. Later, she got several buildings from the demolition and asked me to help her sell them all to cash out. After I transferred the money to her, she never contacted me again."

Jiang Zao thought that the money must have been used to pull strings, help Eric escape the death penalty, and change his identity.

"Does Mom know about these things?" Jiang Zao asked again.

Fu Yinhe shook her head: "I used to think it was unnecessary to say anything, since those properties originally belonged to my eldest sister anyway. But now I don't dare to say anything. Mom has suffered too many blows lately, and I'm afraid of her..."

Jiang Zao told Fu Yinhe about Eric escaping the death penalty and changing his name.

"Second sister, if this matter is exposed, the police in the United States will investigate, and you may not be able to escape responsibility."

Fu Yinhe was so shocked that she instinctively covered her mouth with her hand. "Oh my god, I never thought that my eldest sister would... She was clearly the most promising person in the Fu family, so why did she have to go down this path for a man?"

Jiang Zao's words cannot be denied.

Love is something that cannot be easily explained.

Although she didn't believe in the existence of true love that lasts until death.

“Second sister, Eric has changed his name to Zack, and I think eldest sister should have returned to China as well, but she hasn’t shown her face yet,” Jiang Zao said.

Fu Yinhe couldn't help but recall what happened twenty years ago.

“My eldest sister left very decisively back then. She has always been the kind of person who would never easily change her mind once she made a decision, so even if she has returned to China now, she will definitely not contact our family again.”

“But her man has made a move against the Fu family!” Jiang Zao said seriously. “If the eldest sister doesn’t know about this, it means that Zack and she are not completely open and of one mind. If the eldest sister knows but doesn’t inform the Fu family, then she is standing against the Fu family for the sake of her man. In fact, her purpose in returning to the country may very well be to take over the Fu family.”

Her analysis, though cruel, is undeniably not without merit.

Fu Yinhe and Fu Yanci, who was floating in mid-air, had no way to refute it.

In the afternoon, a light drizzle began to fall outside, and the sky was dark and gloomy.

Jiang Zao stood at the window, watching people hurrying by with umbrellas in hand, and deliverymen riding electric bikes in the rain. All walks of life were captured in the rain.

Knock knock!

"Come in."

Jiang Jinfeng pushed open the door and entered.

"Aunt, the police have informed us that they have found the driver, Xiao Zhang."

Jiang Zao turned around, already having a guess in her mind, "Dead?"

Jiang Jinfeng nodded: "The body was found in the moat outside the city, and the cause of death... was rather gruesome."

Jiang Zao changed her clothes and went to the police station with Jiang Jinfeng.

It wasn't until she arrived at the forensic lab that she realized Jiang Jinfeng's description of the situation as "somewhat tragic" was actually quite conservative.

Xiao Zhang's hands and feet were nailed with iron nails the length of a palm, he suffered 84 blows all over his body, almost all of his bones were fractured, and he was also sexually assaulted.

The forensic pathologist took a deep breath: "To be honest, in all my years as a forensic pathologist, I have never seen such a gruesome corpse. The cruelty of this murderer is appalling. He doesn't seem to be obsessed with killing, but rather enjoying the process."

Xiao Zhang's wife also came, and she was crying her eyes out.

Jiang Zao stopped her from going in to identify the body.

Otherwise, this frail woman might not have been able to withstand such a blow.

"The Fu family will take care of your future life, mother and son," Jiang Zao said softly, trying to comfort you.

Although saying these things at this time is of no use, it is the greatest promise she can make.

Back at the hospital, Jiang Zao spent five hours straight in front of the computer, constantly hacking into various systems in an attempt to find Zack's whereabouts.

She absolutely cannot let this inhuman pervert go unpunished.

Finally, hard work pays off.

She finally tracked down Zach by following the Department of Transportation's surveillance cameras.

He actually dared to hunt for prey in nightclubs so brazenly.

Without saying a word, Jiang Zao changed her clothes and left the hospital. She found a shop and changed into a sexy outfit. Her wavy long hair and smoky makeup exuded charm, and she attracted everyone's attention as soon as she entered the nightclub.

Many people even whistled at her.

Fu Yanci's spirit followed behind, itching with anger, but he couldn't stop it.

This woman is taking too much risks.

They actually wanted to use themselves as bait!

Bait Jiang had spotted Zack the moment she entered, but she didn't glance at him. Instead, after rejecting several men, she agreed to dance with a muscular man who looked wild and untamed.
