Upon hearing her son's words, Xu Lihua couldn't help but take two steps back, her face filled with astonishment and her eyes wide.
"What are we going to do? If she's not dead, won't she come looking for us? Then she'll go to the police station to report us..."
The more Xu Lihua thought about the consequences, the colder her back became.
"Mom, what I mean is I don't know. I only saw her fall down the mountain, and the situation was quite..."
Lu Chengyi grabbed the beer can and took a big gulp.
“The situation was complicated at the time. I was very nervous, so I left. But I don’t know why the police couldn’t find me. There was no sea or river nearby.”
Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he became alert. A few years ago, there had been rumors that there were wolves in the mountains.
Could it be that Ding Weiwei was carried off by a wolf?
Lu Chengyi sat on the sofa, his right hand tightly gripping the empty beer can until it was completely deformed and crumpled into a ball.
His gaze was gloomy and ruthless.
"I'm starting to suspect that she might have been carried off by a wolf?"
When Xu Lihua heard these words, she felt a chill run down her spine and stared at her son in shock.
But this is also the safest outcome at present.
"Thank God, thank God, it would be best if he was carried off by a wolf, only then would he be safe!"
The little girl, who had been sleeping inside, felt hungry and cautiously walked out of the living room and stood on the corridor.
Just then, she overheard her father and grandmother talking.
Little Cloud is almost 7 years old this year, and she can understand everything. Her father said that her mother might have been taken away by a wolf, and her grandmother said she hoped that her mother would be taken away by a wolf...
She walked back to her room silently without saying a word.
Mom was carried off by a wolf...
Dad saw it with his own eyes, but Dad didn't save Mom; Dad wanted to kill Mom.
Little Cloud was all alone in the children's room, curled up in a ball, shivering.
Most of the time, Xiaoyunduo spends her time in the hospital with the medical staff.
Her father and grandmother rarely visited her; most of the time, it was her mother who went to see her.
This time, for some unknown reason, Grandma suddenly brought her back.
However, after Grandma brought her back, she didn't even make her lunch. She just told her to go back to her room and not to stay outside and get in the way.
In the living room, Xu Lihua was still asking questions incessantly.
"So, how are things going with you and Miss Huo? Is it going smoothly? Is Miss Huo willing to be with you?"
Lu Chengyi sighed. Even if he had the greatest courage, he wouldn't dare to contact Huo Qingqing now.
"Now everyone outside suspects me of cheating on my wife and murdering Ding Weiwei. I can't let them find out anything!"
Lu Chengyi had considered the potential consequences of publicly announcing his wife's disappearance.
However, the incident was exposed too early, and the police even saw him taking his wife up the mountain, but she never returned...
All of this caught Lu Chengyi off guard, leaving him unsure how to explain.
He was panicking when his phone suddenly vibrated, and a number appeared on the screen.
"Jiang Xu?"
Lu Chengyi answered the phone somewhat impatiently.
Jiang Xu's voice was very irritable.
"Lu Chengyi, didn't you say you would help me?"
"Your so-called helping me is just using the news of your own affair and murder of your wife to suppress all the original buzz, is that right?"
"You're really great!"
Lu Chengyi frowned, his face full of weariness.
The man scoffed, "Do you think I wanted things to turn out this way? Let me tell you, I didn't kill my wife!"
"Jiang Xu, calm down. I'm already overwhelmed with work here, I don't have time to deal with you!"
With that, Lu Chengyi decisively hung up the phone.
I caught a glimpse of the children's slippers in the living room.
He turned to Xu Lihua and asked, "When did you bring Yunduo back?"
"Yun Duo's treatment costs in the hospital are so high every day. Now that she's almost recovered, let her come back. Besides, we'll need to hire a nanny to take care of her. You must be really rich!"
Lu Chengyi rubbed his hair without saying a word.
He has lost several of his betting contracts, so things are definitely not going well for him!
With Lu Chengyi preoccupied with his own problems, Jiang Xu had no choice but to find a way to take revenge herself.
At 8:30 p.m., she first anonymously contacted a group of reporters, then disguised herself and infiltrated the Tang Group.
She wanted Tang Li to die along with her grandfather!
Tang Li will have to pay the price for her grandfather's death.
Under the cover of night, Jiang Xu climbed to the top floor of the Tang Group building alone and sat on the rooftop.
She needs the attention!
She wanted everyone to see that Old Master Jiang had died innocently and unjustly, and the only way to get attention was through such actions!
Downstairs, in the lounge on the 26th floor, Tang Li had drunk some wine and was slightly tipsy. Overwhelmed by lust, she became very intimate with Lu Jianshen.
When he was half-undressed, his assistant rushed over and knocked on the door.
Tang Li suddenly pushed Lu Jianshen away. She shouldn't have gotten too close to that scoundrel; he was too cunning.
Lu Jianshen grabbed her and coaxed her, "Everyone's off work at this hour, nothing will happen."
Tang Li wouldn't listen. If there was nothing wrong, her assistant wouldn't rush over to knock on the door in the middle of the night.
"President Lu has a lot of mess to clean up at home, this is not appropriate."
Lu Jianshen chuckled lightly; he didn't care.
Those who are clean will be cleansed themselves!
Tang Li pushed him away, took a deep breath, quickly went to the washroom next door to tidy up her messy clothes, and splashed cold water on her reddened cheeks.
Tang Li strode over to open the door, and his assistant hurriedly said, "President Tang, Jiang Xu went up to the rooftop of our company to get some fresh air!"
