Chapter 69 Qiao Wanwan is completely desperate
The night is dark.
Zhou Yingrui was awakened from her dream by dozens of phone calls from Qiao Xuan, and rushed to Lu Yunzheng's house to see him overnight.
As soon as she entered the door, Qiao Xian threw the medical examination report just delivered by the lawyer in her face.
"Explain?"
Qiao Xuan lowered his voice to a very low level, his fingers almost crushing the wine glass in his hand.
His eyes were as cold as ice, staring at Zhou Yingrui who was standing opposite him.
Zhou Yingrui picked up the report.
When she saw the result written in black and white that Qiao Wanwan was not pregnant, her heart skipped a beat.
As early as the day of the wedding, when she saw the news about Qu Ge's accident, she knew that this day would come sooner or later...
Previously, when she agreed to help Qiao Wanwan lie, she had no idea that Qiao Wanwan would actually say that the "baby" in her belly was Qiao Xu'an's!
If she had known she was so crazy, she would never have helped her tell such a big lie!
At this moment, facing Qiao Xuan's questioning, she could only give vague and perfunctory answers.
"I might have made a mistake accidentally."
"A mistake?"
Qiao Xuan sneered and threw the cup in his hand away.
The glass just passed by Zhou Yingrui's ear, drew a dangerous arc, and then hit the wall and shattered into pieces.
"Just because you said 'accidentally' so casually, I was fooled by her?!"
The veins on Qiao Xuan's forehead were throbbing slightly, his chest was heaving violently, and his anger was about to explode in the next second.
Zhou Yingrui subconsciously took a half step back and swallowed nervously.
"I'm sorry, I understand you're angry right now, but..."
"Understand?" He suddenly interrupted, his tone gloomy, "How can you understand?!"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand and was about to swing it towards Zhou Yingrui.
"Calm down!"
A figure quickly rushed over from the side.
Lu Yunzheng grabbed his wrist with such force that it almost crushed his bones, and he finally managed to subdue him.
"You're crazy! What's the point of taking it out on Dr. Zhou now?! She was just being used by Qiao Wanwan!"
Seeing the unconcealable murderous intent in Qiao Xuan's terrifying scarlet eyes, Zhou Yingrui turned pale with fright.
She looked at Lu Yunzheng gratefully.
If he hadn't blocked it, her face would have been smashed to pieces.
Qiao Xuan's teeth were clenched so hard that they hurt, and his fists were clenched so hard that they made a crackling sound.
He fiercely shook off Lu Yunzheng's hand and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Get out! Don't let me see you again!"
Hearing this, Zhou Yingrui felt as if she had been pardoned.
She didn't dare say anything more and immediately turned and left.
The moment the door closed, Qiao Xuan swept everything on the table to the ground.
The wine bottle smashed to the ground, and the dark red wine stains exploded into pieces of scarlet flowers...
"Qiao Wanwan!"
He gritted his teeth, wishing he could chew these three words into pieces.
"Just wait for me!"
…
Police station.
Qiao Wanwan was imprisoned in a narrow and damp cell, and there was always a lingering musty smell in her nostrils.
Her hair was greasy and stuck to her cheeks. The manicure she had spent thousands of dollars on had broken several times. There was dirty dirt left in the cracks of her nails, which even made her feel disgusted.
The days waiting for the investigation felt like years.
She didn't know what was happening outside and was just waiting for Qiao Xian to send someone to rescue her.
After waiting for an unknown amount of time, the prison guard finally opened her door.
"Qiao Wanwan, someone wants to see you."
"Is that my brother?! He finally came to pick me up!"
"Go and see for yourself."
The policewoman handcuffed her and took her to the interview room.
The handcuffs hurt her wrists, but she didn't care.
She ran into the meeting room with joy, thinking that she could finally see Qiao Xian and leave this damn place.
However, the person waiting for her in the meeting room was not the one she had been thinking about at all.
But it was Han Yu, the bootlicker she used to despise the most.
Han Yu leaned crookedly in his chair, waiting impatiently.
The priceless diamond earring on his ear was out of place against the damp and moldy walls around it.
When he saw Qiao Wanwan being brought in by the policewoman, he immediately stood up with a look of false concern on his face.
"Wanwan, why do you look so haggard? Did they bully you?!"
"Why is it you?"
Qiao Wanwan frowned unhappily, her eyes filled with disappointment.
She pulled out a chair and sat down. Her prison uniform was dirty and wrinkled, but her chin was still held high.
"What are you doing here?" She glared at him arrogantly.
Han Yu looked at her, his eyes lingering on her face for a few seconds, a hint of amusement on his lips.
"Wanwan, you're probably not used to living in a place like this, are you?" He leaned forward and suddenly lowered his voice: "Actually, I can get you out."
"Save me? Just you?" Qiao Wanwan said disdainfully.
She had long been accustomed to this condescending attitude, and even though she was now a prisoner, she still couldn't change her arrogance.
Hearing her sarcastic tone, Han Yu frowned with displeasure.
But he didn't get angry. He just straightened up slowly and said with a smile, "Of course, my saving you has conditions. You know, I've always liked you. As long as you are willing to follow me, I will immediately let my lawyer bail you out."
"With you?"
Qiao Wanwan stared, almost doubting her own ears.
She stood up suddenly, her handcuffs clattering, her eyes filled with disgust: "Who do you think you are? How dare you say such things to me? Your Han family is just a dog raised by the Qiao family! You are simply a toad wanting to eat swan meat!"
"You dare to call me a dog?"
The fake smile on Han Yu's face disappeared instantly, and his eyes turned cold.
He calmly pulled out a stack of photos from his briefcase and said, "Look carefully, who is the dog now?!"
The photos were all about news related to the Qiao Group’s bankruptcy.
Among them, the most eye-catching one is -
"Qiao Jingren, former chairman of the Qiao Group, died of a heart attack at the Central Hospital this morning!"
"Oh, you didn't know yet? Your dad is dead!"
Every word Han Yu said pierced Qiao Wanwan's heart.
Qiao Wanwan looked at the things in front of her in disbelief, and her face instantly lost all color.
"Impossible... You must be lying to me! Stop talking nonsense! My dad can't possibly be dead!"
As she spoke, she grabbed the photos and tore them to pieces angrily.
The fragments were blown into the air, scattered like the last heavy snow in this bitterly cold winter.
Qiao Wanwan's eyes turned red with anger as she stared at Han Yu intently: "Where's my brother? Where's Qiao Xu'an?! Why hasn't he come to save me?!"
"Joshua?"
Han Yu sneered, took out his cell phone and played the video.
In the picture, Qiao Xian signed the bankruptcy documents with his own hands in front of the media.
"He can't even afford the legal fees, and you still expect him to save you? He can't even save himself right now, so how can he care about you?"
"How is it possible...the Qiao family is really bankrupt?"
The incandescent light in the meeting room crackled, casting a pale light on Qiao Wanwan's face.
She bit her lower lip hard until she tasted blood, and then she had to believe that all this was real.
Han Yu stood up, pinched her chin, and gently tidied up the messy hair around her ears with his other hand.
"Well? Do you understand your situation now? Think about it, who else can save you besides me?!"
"W-What do you want?!"
Seeing the evil in Han Yu's eyes, Qiao Wanwan finally felt a fear from the bottom of her heart.
She hid back in fear, but someone held her chin tightly, making her unable to move at all.
"Haven't I made it clear? As long as you're willing to come with me, I can get you out of here with just one phone call."
"You're dreaming! I'm pregnant with Qiao Xu'an's child. There's no way I'll marry a loser like you!"
Qiao Wanwan spat on Han Yu's face, her teeth chattering.
Han Yu frowned, raised his hand to wipe the dirt off his face, and a hint of viciousness flashed in his eyes.
He snorted coldly, as if he had heard a huge joke.
"Qiao Wanwan, you really think highly of yourself! When did I ever say I wanted to marry you? You should understand that your Qiao family is nothing now! I am the only one who thinks highly of you and is willing to give you a chance to serve me! Otherwise, you? You are not even worthy of carrying my shoes!"
"Oh, just a kind reminder. Stop worrying about the 'child' or not. I've already checked with the police, and you're not pregnant at all! You're so stupid that you don't even know whether you're pregnant or not."
"In short, you have no other choice now except to please me. Think it over carefully. I will come to see you again in two days~"
After saying that, Han Yu turned and left.
His leather shoes made a dull sound as they stepped on the concrete floor, and every step seemed to be stepping on Qiao Wanwan's proud self-esteem.
Qiao Wanwan stood there in a daze, not moving at all.
She kept thinking about what Han Yu had just said...
It turned out that the police already knew that she was not pregnant.
Does that mean... Qiao Xu'an also knows about this? !
Qiao Wanwan's legs went limp and she fell to the ground with a thud.
She knew that Qiao Xuan no longer cared about her.
The only thing he cared about was the "child" in her belly.
Now, she doesn't even have a "child".
There was no way Qiao Xu'an would find a way to save her...
Maybe, she will never see him again in this life!
"ah!!!"
Qiao Wanwan burst into tears, and her cries echoed throughout the entire building.
She tore at her hair and scratched her arms with her nails, leaving bloody marks, as if the physical pain could slightly ease the black hole in her heart.
But the reality is just the opposite.
No matter how much she vented, she could not escape from the abyss of despair.
She only felt her whole body falling into darkness, falling endlessly...
…
The news of Qiao Jingren's death from a heart attack soon reached Qiao Xuan'an.
Qiao Xuan'an felt nothing in his heart.
After all, the man who had only abused him since he was a child was not worthy of the title of "father" in his heart.
Qiao Xuan indifferently adjusted his collar, preparing to welcome the incoming distinguished guest.
The three-day deadline has expired.
He Qing said that he would come to him to ask for an explanation...
