Zhang Ze had been suffering from insomnia and vivid dreams for the past few days, breaking out in cold sweats at night. He felt like he had forgotten something, so he sat up.
After seeing Huo Cifeng fast asleep, she decided to rely on herself to find clues and see what Huo Cifeng had been doing while she was away these past few days.
He opened Huo Cifeng's WeChat and looked through the people he frequently contacted, but found nothing amiss.
Finally, he turned off the screen, secretly put the phone back in its place, and lay back down.
In the dark night
Huo Cifeng slowly opened his eyes. He knew Zhang Ze had touched his phone, so what was going on?
Was Zhang Ze faking it?
His intuition told him it was impossible; Zhang Ze was now like a lost lamb, searching for something.
Huo Cifeng suppressed his restlessness; the fact that his parents were both in prison recently was already troublesome enough.
He wasn't too surprised when he learned that Huo Cixiao's mother had been murdered by his own mother.
Anyway, all these people are in jail, so all the money is his.
Huo Cixiao is now managing the company for him, and he's almost emptied it out.
After Huo Cixiao learns that Lin Lan is his enemy, he probably won't let his enemy's son off the hook.
Therefore, Huo Corporation needs to secretly sell his shares as soon as possible and escape the country before Huo Cixiao takes revenge on him.
Having already made his plans, Huo Cifeng slowly drifted off to sleep.
Two weeks later
With the help of several classmates, Zhang Ze fully regained his memory. After learning that Huo Cifeng.
Just then, Huo Cifeng was reported for embezzling company funds and stealing company resources for other companies, and he was forced to wear a silver bracelet late at night.
Zhang Ze was dissatisfied that Huo Cifeng might only be sentenced to a few years in the future, so he went to turn himself in and confessed that Huo Cifeng was the mastermind behind the murder of Huo Cixiao and Luo Beishi.
Luo Beishi admired Zhang Ze quite a bit. You could call him a jerk, but he was devoted to his "white moonlight" (his first love).
You can't say he's not a jerk, but he found a substitute.
Luo Beishi asked Huo Cixiao with a grin, "Honey, do you think it will be very lively there?"
Huo Cixiao: "?"
Seeing Huo Cixiao's puzzled expression, he continued, "I really don't know what Zhang Ze was thinking. You could call him a scumbag, but he went to jail and even turned himself in. He even chased Huo Cifeng to the point of jail."
Huo Cixiao raised an eyebrow. "I remember, Wu You'an was there too. The world is so big, could the three of them be locked up in the same area? That would be very interesting."
Luo Beishi nodded. "They're all cases that haven't gone to trial yet; they're in detention."
System: "Host, the villain guessed right, the three of them really did run into each other in the detention center."
Luo Beishi burst out laughing, "Hahaha... My god, this is so funny! I can't even imagine how exciting their lives will be from now on."
Speaking of interesting people, Luo Beishi almost forgot one: Qu Wanying.
Qu Wanying is now constantly battling wits with the doctors, and has almost been driven insane.
She kept muttering a phone number to herself, and using the stolen phone, she dialed the number and called Luo Beishi.
"Mommy misses you so much... Little one, please save Mommy!"
Luo Beishi's lips curled into a smile. "What's wrong? Were you unhappy there?"
Qu Wanying: "I'm unhappy, I'm really not happy at all... Please, only you can help me. They're all ignoring me, and that ingrate Luo Bai even insulted me! I raised him all these years, and he insults me... Waaah!"
Where are you being held?
"I don't know either..."
"You don't even know yourself, how can I save you? Don't you like Luo Bai a lot? If I save you, I'll take you to his place so you and your son can be reunited, okay? Oh, you probably don't know about him, right? His biological father isn't Luo Ming, but that murderer Xu Qing from the Xu Family."
The devilish whispers echoed in her ears, and she cried out in terror, "No, Xiaoshi, don't send me there. Take me to your place... Please, I'm so scared!"
Luo Beishi sighed deeply, "I've been scared for the past 20 years too. Few people have cared about me. You can experience what it feels like when no one around you believes you while you're inside. Isn't that perfect? You never believed me before, did you?"
Qu Wanying recalled that recently, after Luo Bai stopped pretending, his ugly face was revealed. Not only did he scold her for the 200 million yuan compensation, but he also claimed that he had deliberately framed Luo Beishi in the past, calling her blind and brain-dead, and hurling all sorts of nasty insults at her.
"Not going to say anything? Then I'm hanging up."
Her hoarse voice pleaded urgently, "No... Shi Xiao, I was wrong, really."
"I will never accept your apology. Your repentance means nothing to me." Luo Beishi laughed and continued, "Besides, what gives you the nerve to want to live in my house? Do you think I'm some kind of filial son? Let me tell you clearly, anyone might help you, but that person will definitely not be me."
After saying that, he hung up the phone, feeling refreshed.
"Hahaha, Tongtong, this is so funny! I can really feel her despair even through the screen. If I were to have a saintly heart and lend her a helping hand, I would be betraying my past suffering. To hell with kindness, kindness has to be selective."
Luo Beishi: "There have been quite a few happy events lately. It feels like most of the monsters have suddenly been wiped out, which is very refreshing."
System: "Host, the villain is back from the meeting, and you're still slacking off!"
Luo Beishi frowned guiltily. "Why are you in such a panic? Do you think I'm the kind of person who's afraid of him...?"
It's just a little punishment, isn't it? Pshaw, he's not afraid at all.
Half an hour later, he regretted it, "Waaah... Huo Cixiao, you're not human."
Huo Cixiao, however, said in a serious tone, "Wife, I feel pretty good."
Luo Beishi: "..."
noon
The detention center also had dormitories, and coincidentally, Zhang Ze was in the room opposite Wu You'an. While queuing to enter their respective rooms, the two exchanged glances and had a chance to chat. Huo Cifeng, who was behind them, was in no mood to pay attention to whether the two were exchanging glances.
Now that he has fallen from heaven to hell, he is as calm as still water.
His good older brother set a trap for him to fall into, and Zhang Ze betrayed him. His parents went to jail. All of this combined made him utterly desperate and regretful.
He only had 5% of Huo Corporation's shares left, most of which he had sold to pay off other debts. Huo Cixiao was putting financial pressure on him, and he simply couldn't manage the cash flow... In the end, he lost count of how much he had to pay in breach of contract damages to the partner companies.
He thought he could transfer the money Huo Cixiao had given him to the two companies and then run away, but after the money was transferred to an external account, when he was ordered to return it, the account was frozen.
In the end, he could only use his remaining shares in the Huo Corporation to pay off the debt.
He truly had no idea when he had fallen into such an obvious trap.
Huo Cifeng ignored Zhang Ze. Since they were assigned to different dormitories, all of which were single rooms, Huo Cifeng remained silent the entire way.
