"Miss Qiao—" the servant bent over to help her, "You don't know that group? I'll call the police immediately."

She ran towards the house, but Qiao Hanrun stopped her, "It's unnecessary."

The servant stopped, "Do you know him?"

Qiao Hanrun took a deep breath, "I know."

"Is it your friend? Is Longlong in danger?"

She stood up without a word and got into the taxi.

While driving out of the community, he received a call from Xue Yan. He was galloping on the highway, erratic, "You've been exposed, haven't you?"

"It's Chongzhou's problem, I didn't betray him!" Qiao Hanrun hurriedly argued.

Xue Yan said calmly, "Since Ms. Qiao has not betrayed her, why bother?"

"There is no need for suspects, but no doubts for employing people. Chongzhou monitored me and Chen Yuan found out. What should I do next?" She almost collapsed, "Chen Yuan hates lies the most in his life. You want me to be his weakness and arouse his old love , but he already suspected me and guarded against me, is it my fault?"

"Since the day you returned, Chen Yuan's suspicions have never been dispelled. The men of the Chen family, if they love another woman, it doesn't stop them from being wary of her." Xue Yan said in a dark tone, "Although I know it, you are his only one after all. The affection of a woman who has been given a title is extraordinary, even Miss Shen can't compare to it."

Qiao Hanrun couldn't help tensing up, "What do you mean?"

"Make the most of this affection, make him feel unbearable, reluctant to give up, and try to stay by his side."

"Xue Yan." Her voice was trembling, "He and Chongzhou are incompatible, at this point, can I stay?"

"Chen Yuan doesn't stay, and the second son also doesn't leave waste." Xue Yan pulled over, lowered the window, turned on the player slowly, and heard a girl crying, "Miss Qiao, Yangyang often has nightmares in England, dreaming that you don't want She is gone, no matter how carefully the servants take care of her, she is not her mother after all, she is just three years old, if mother and daughter are separated from now on, it will be really pitiful."

She trembled all over, and couldn't restrain herself any more, "Where is Qi Shang..."

"Mr. Qi has his duties and has no time to take care of his daughter. Yangyang expects Ms. Qiao to retire and take care of her."

Qiao Han clenched his fist tightly, gasping for breath, "I understand."

Xue Yan smiled, "You just need to understand."

At dusk, she returned to Tianfu No. 1, rushed up to the second floor in a panic, "Chen Yuan—" Qiao Hanrun shouted his name like crazy, she knocked open the door of the study, but when he was not there, she knocked open the guest room, the bathroom, and it was empty. one person.

The nanny heard the movement, hurried out from the storage room, and stopped her, "Miss Qiao, you—"

"Where's Chen Yuan?" She looked pale.

The nanny signaled her to the master bedroom tremblingly, and Qiao Hanrun broke in immediately.

The floor-to-ceiling windows were opened, and the chaotic dust was flying in the sunset, and Chen Yuan's elegant and handsome eyebrows were blurred.

Longlong was in his arms, and he teased him patiently. This scene was extremely warm, but Qiao Hanrun felt chills.

Chen Yuan's beauty at this moment is more like a sharp sickle, wrapped in colorful foam, and his body is smashed to pieces with the knife.

She froze in place, motionless.

"Mom!" Longlong found Qiao Hanrun and struggled to jump from between his legs.

Chen Yuan smiled warmly, let go of his hand, Longlong hugged Qiao Hanrun's leg, "Uncle Chen gave me a lot of toys, I like him so much."

The moment his eyes met, Chen Yuan casually moved away and tidied up his shirt.

Qiao Hanrun settled down, squatted down to coax him, "Longlong, go back to the room to play, mom and Uncle Chen have something to say."

Longlong returned to the window again, grabbed Chen Yuan's knee, "Uncle Chen, can I sleep with you at night?"

Chen Yuan touched his head, "Yes."

Longlong smiled openly, "Uncle Chen, you and my father are ranked first."

"Oh?" He leaned over, "What about the second one?"

"Mom comes second."

Chen Yuan laughed out loud, "Is Uncle Chen in front of mom?"

"Mom loves my sister more, and Dad loves me."

"Where's the other Uncle Chen?"

Qiao Hanrun's heart skipped a beat, almost suffocating.

Longlong held his chin, "Uncle Chen Chongzhou ranks third."

Chen Yuan lifted him up and put him between his legs again, "Didn't Longlong be born with Uncle Chen's company?"

"Uncle Chen goes back to visit me every year. He only stays with my parents, but he buys expensive gifts for me and my sister."

"Qi Long!" Qiao Hanrun stepped forward and grabbed him, "Go back to the room."

Chen Yuan stroked Amber Jade's cufflinks, and looked at her meaningfully.

Longlong seldom saw her get angry, so he slipped out of the master bedroom in fright.

Qiao Hanrun calmed down for a while, then said hoarsely, "Chen Yuan, I lied to you."

He got up indifferently, and moved the fish tank in the living room to the window sill. Under the setting sun, there was muddy blood. A piece of meat at noon stimulated their appetite, but the feeding stopped abruptly. Hunger prompted them to fight and plunder each other.

Chen Yuan picked up the net spoon and fished out the blood foam and fish scales on the water surface, "How long has it been?"

"Qi Shang and I have known each other for nine years, we have been married for seven years, Longlong is five years old, and Yang Yang is three years old."

The man turned his back to her and rinsed himself in the clear water, "You still have a daughter in London, does Yang Ji know about it?"

Yang Ji fulfilled her promise and did not expose her secret. Maybe it will be of other use in the future. Naturally, she will not bite back and break this way.

"If you don't know about it, how could Secretary Yang know about it?"

He put down the net spoon, "What does my second brother tell you to do?"

Qiao Hanrun told the truth, "Expose Chen Zheng, kidnap and murder me."

Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes. The nature of criminal crimes and economic crimes is completely different. Criminal crimes have no room for reversal, while economic crimes only need to recover public funds, pay fines, and be banned from the stock market for three years. At least there is a way out.

Chen Zheng has been in Vanity Fair all his life, and has a lot of contacts from all walks of life.

It's easy to turn big things into small things.

It's just that he wants to keep the 60 billion in Switzerland. Based on this, he introduced Chen Chongzhou as a scapegoat.

The move that the second child was brewing obviously put him to death.

Refusing to vomit, coupled with the attempted murder, Chen Zheng exploded one after another, and Fucheng was bound to be implicated.

Without the help of Wan Jia, Chen Yuan couldn't stabilize Fucheng at all on the cusp of the crisis.

And Chen Chongzhou escaped safely, and he held the handle of the He family. Even if he didn't marry when, He Pengkun would help him to keep the He family safe and peaceful, and he would go around and go around. Fucheng was still in his pocket.

Chen Chongzhou's layout and moves were very well thought out in this big game of chess that was played step by step.

His city government and planning are far above all his colleagues in the mall.

It was only now that Chen Yuan got a glimpse of his unfathomable panorama.

After a long while, Chen Yuan turned around, wrapped his arms around Qiao Hanrun, and encircled him somewhat.

She was numb from head to toe, looking at him.

"What the second child orders you to do, you just let go." He brushed her hair away with his fingers and put it behind her ear, "I haven't heard of it, and I won't interfere with your actions."

Qiao Hanrun was stunned, "Chongzhou's target is Chen Zheng—"

"I know." Chen Yuan brushed the mole at the corner of her eye with his fingertips, "Tell Xue Yan, I won't pursue you anymore."

The temperature on her face went cold inch by inch, and she vaguely sensed something, her chest was sore and uncomfortable, "And then."

He didn't answer directly, "What is your purpose for coming back?"

Qiao Hanrun shed a tear, "In addition to Chongzhou's intentions, I also miss you in my selfishness. Chen Yuan, I have given up after so long. Only my heart is persisting. I thought you would be happy, but I am in your eyes , didn’t see the emotion I longed for.”

He remained silent, wiping away the wet tears from her chin.

"Han Run, if it wasn't for feelings, the moment I doubted you, everything would be over."

"So it's not over now?"

Chen Yuan let out a dull sound from his throat.

She smiled with tears in her eyes, "What's the reason for not ending?"

"Actually, you don't have to care so much." He slipped his hand from her waist and walked towards the door.

"Is it the person who is plotting me, who can't let go of the old relationship that ended with regret, or is Chen Chongzhou behind the plotting me!"

She choked up inexplicably, like a huge needle, sucking up all the blood and oxygen she needed to survive.

He went on.

"Chen Yuan." Qiao Hanrun stopped him, his eyes fixed on his broad back, "Do you not love me at all?"

He turned his head, and in her last expectation, there was still no response.

Qiao Hanrun closed her eyes tightly, what she was nostalgic for, what she was obsessed with, what she reminisced about day and night.

When she looked away, his pure and gentle eyes on her finally disappeared.

If she had to do it all over again, she would rather give her life with such an emotional gaze.

She didn't even know who to blame, and she couldn't blame anyone.

Resentment.

Complaining about mistakes and mistakes is too exhausting.

She is already a wife, so why should she ask him to be as true as ever.

***

On Friday, the Chang'an District Bureau invited criminal investigation experts from the police circle to conduct the first joint interrogation of Chen Zheng and Chen Chongzhou.

There used to be a perverted serial murderer who kept his mouth shut for 17 days. It was this expert who pried his mouth open, and his psychological tactics were excellent.

As key witnesses, Jiang Rong and Zhang Li had to sign a statement of guarantee with their real names. When they arrived, their subordinates were escorting Chen Zheng to the interrogation room.

"Jiang Rong!" Chen Zheng roared.

She stops and turns around.

Chen Zheng glanced over her and Zhang Li, "Back then you used dirty tricks to harm Pei Yu's and me's eldest son, and you will return to your old business 30 years later." He was furious, "You bitch, even your own husband is pissed!" dirty!"

"Have you ever taken on the responsibility of being a husband?" Jiang Rong retorted with red eyes, "You also remember that I have been married to you for more than 30 years. How many days have you been at home in these 30 years? How many days have you taken He Peiyu to show off around the world? Have you ever seen my face and my feelings?"

"You asked for that!" Chen Zheng twitched all over his body, "You knew that Peiyu and I had a child, and that she left home, and I couldn't let her down, but you stepped in and instigated the Chen family to force me to marry you! You said it yourself You only care about the status of the wife, not affection, why did you change your mind?"

"Why did I change my mind?" Jiang Rong walked towards him, "Is there any wife in the world who doesn't care about her husband's affection? In the first few years, I washed your hands for you, raised Chen Yuan with all my heart, and managed the Chen family. I asked myself if I was a good wife and mother. But you hated me, neglected me, and was hanged by that old vixen He Peiyu, have you ever gone home? The woman is beyond recognition, and the man is the one who started it. You can't let her down, have you forgotten that you let me down?"

Chen Chongzhou was next door, calmly holding a cigarette, and the smile on his lips deepened.

"Who ordered you to slander me?"

Jiang Rong turned her head aside, "How can I slander you for the good things you did yourself? The Chang'an District Bureau is a police officer trained by Chen Ling. There is no one who is stupid. Can I escape their sharp eyes with my false confession?"

"People are not sages." Chen Zheng stared at her. "The financial case is complicated, and they will inevitably be negligent. They will listen to your nonsense."

Chen Zheng turned to his subordinates who were in charge of him, "Jiang Rong is my first wife, and our marriage is not harmonious. Her testimony contains personal emotions, and the law should invalidate it."

The subordinate frowned, "Zhang Li and Xiao Hui are neither relatives nor relatives, they have no grievances with you, and they also accuse you."

"Are you sure they haven't been bribed to give false testimony?" Chen Zheng said calmly, "Businessmen put money first, and there is no bottom line for profit. The Chen family fell, and there are countless families trying to replace the Chen family. And me?"

There are rumors in the shopping mall that Chen Zheng is cunning, Chen Chongzhou is smooth, and only Chen Yuan's reputation is positive.

Sure enough, he dared to fight back even if he was doomed.

The Chen family is well-known in the province, and they are top-notch figures. The legal team is always monitoring human rights. If the interrogation goes too far, they complain to the superiors, and the inspection team is also in a state of distress.

Moreover, this old fox was indeed quite virtuous, and the subordinates couldn't argue against him, so they didn't say a word.

"Old Mr. Chen doesn't seem to trust us." The team leader in the corner cut off the walkie-talkie and stepped sideways to make way. "Our criminal investigation experts from the police circle will interrogate us in person, okay?"

Chen Zheng looked over his head and looked towards the elevator.

The two doors were slowly opened, and a cluster of scorching white lights cast down, revealing a man's face, full of strong and masculine flavor, exposed to the sun and rain all year round, his skin color was extremely dark, his muscles were rougher and stronger than most men's, and his jaw The bones are deep and distinct, the pure black uniform is crisp without any wrinkles, and the shiny police badge in the center of the police cap shines brightly.

Resolute and upright, heroic.

The team leader greeted him respectfully, "Ting Chen."

The subordinate laughed, "Chen Hall is in charge of the interrogation today, and he is an expert."

Chen Ling ignored him and glanced at him, "Stop flattering." He focused on browsing the previous transcript, "Chen Chongzhou was interrogated in Room 2."

The team leader asked, "Where is Chen Zheng?"

"Temporary detention."

"Third brother! What are you trying?" Chen Zheng rushed forward, "I'm your eldest brother, don't you know if I committed a crime?"

Chen Ling didn't squint, and his footsteps were windy, "Take it away first."

"The third child—" Chen Zheng panicked. He understood Chen Ling's temper, and his attitude was obviously business-like.

Chen Ling didn't go out easily. Once he decided to go out, all the original physical evidence was invalidated. He dug three feet to dig new materials, dug a pile, threw another pile, and the opponent was speechless.

He was silent in the hospital for many days. Both Chen Zheng and Chen Zhiyun thought he was recovering from his injuries. In fact, he investigated secretly, and the details in his hands were quite weighty.

The subordinates dispatched one after another to arrest Chen Zheng and imprison him in the confinement room opposite.

Chen Ling entered Room 2 and took a look at Chen Chongzhou. The latter blew a wisp of smoke at the ceiling, "Third Uncle."

He sat down, raised one leg, looked down at his watch without saying a word.

In the tug-of-war, Chen Ling was a top player.

Even Chen Chongzhou could hold his breath. In this contest where Chen Ling had the upper hand, he sat quietly for half a day and then crushed out the seventh cigarette, taking the initiative to break the deadlock. Shouldn't the charges against my nephew be avoided?"

Chen Ling raised his eyelids, "We should avoid suspicion." He put down the case file, "Unfortunately, I was entrusted by someone."

Chen Chongzhou stared at him, "Who entrusted third uncle."

"Shen Zhen." Chen Ling didn't hide anything.

A turbulent wave rose in the man's eyes, and then subsided immediately, "She had a miscarriage and almost got off the operating table. I didn't touch Ni Ying, and she hated me in her heart."
