Rong Cheng never expected that his plan would be seen through by Yu Hanjiang. He had made all the necessary arrangements, boarded a private jet, and was about to take off. Once he left this place, he could live a peaceful and stable life abroad under a completely new identity.
But at this final moment, Yu Hanjiang actually rushed in and held a gun to his head?!
Rong Cheng was so angry that he felt like vomiting blood on the spot after all his efforts were in vain!
This time, in order to escape, he deliberately traveled light without any helpers, which made it easier for Yu Hanjiang to directly board his private plane and capture him. Rong Cheng regretted it so much that he was green with envy.
Yu Hanjiang deftly handcuffed him, grabbed the man's shirt collar to make him stand up from the sofa, pushed him in the back, and whispered, "Let's go, come back to Police Station with me."
Rong Cheng was pushed so hard he almost stumbled. Feigning innocence, he asked, "Who are you? Why are you arresting me?"
Yu Hanjiang sneered: "Still pretending? Although you're using a fake ID, we have your fingerprints and DNA in our police database. Come back with me and we'll compare them to find out why I arrested you."
Rong Cheng's face was ashen, and he was muttering curses under his breath.
As Yu Hanjiang escorted him back to the Police Station, Shao Qingge and his group arrived just then.
In the pouring rain late at night, Song Xiaoqing and Rong Cheng stared at each other in front of the police station. Song Xiaoqing was so excited that she almost jumped up and kicked him: " Rong Cheng, you bastard, you actually wanted to blow me up too! Why didn't you tell me there were explosives buried underground?!"
Rong Cheng's lips twitched slightly, his face expressionless.
Yu Hanjiang was happy to see the two of them fighting like dogs. Both of them being arrested would greatly help with the upcoming interrogation, and he could use Song Xiaoqing's testimony to put psychological pressure on Rong Cheng.
Shao Qingge walked up to Yu Hanjiang and asked, "Do you need our help with the interrogation?"
Yu Hanjiang glanced at Xiao Lou, who immediately understood his meaning and said, " CEO Shao, Captain Yu is the most professional in interrogating criminals. You can leave this to us. You have a more important task."
Shao Qingge asked in confusion, "More important? What mission?"
Xiao Lou whispered in his ear, "Your father hasn't been home for a while, and you don't know where he is, do you?"
"Well, I only called him once after I was discharged from the hospital to let him know I was safe. He said he was too busy at the company and wouldn't be home yet, so I don't really know where he is." Shao Qingge frowned. "You want me to go home and find out where he is? But my mother has been his caged canary all these years, so she should know nothing about his business dealings."
"She might not know about business matters, but what about matters of the heart?" Xiao Lou said seriously. "Sometimes, a woman's intuition can't be explained by science. If your father has a mistress and an illegitimate child, do you think your mother would really be completely unaware?"
"That makes sense!" Shao Qingge smiled and glanced at Xiao Lou. "Although she is frail, I can tell she is a very smart woman. Maybe she knows where my dad and his mistress live. That is, if there really is a mistress."
Based on Xiao Lou's speculation, Shao Zhengyang definitely has an illegitimate child. Otherwise, how could he be so heartless as to eliminate his only adopted son, Shao Qingge? Xiao Lou reached out and patted Shao Qingge on the shoulder: "Be careful, and inform Captain Yu immediately if there is any news."
Shao Qingge nodded, and Ye Qi chimed in enthusiastically, " CEO Shao, I'll go too! I can protect you!"
Ye Qi felt no pain at all, and all his external wounds had healed. He was unaware that a bullet was still lodged in his body, and even volunteered to protect Shao Qingge...
Shao Qingge sighed softly and patted Ye Qi's head: "Alright, let's act together."
After all, Ye Qi is still in the state of the insect king. Three hours have passed, and Ye Qi will be fine for the next 21 hours. Shao Qingge will feel more at ease if he brings Xiao Ye with him.
Xiao Lou stayed at the Police Station to help Yu Hanjiang, while Shao Qingge took Ye Qi home.
His adoptive mother, Qin Wan, is still awake.
Late at night, a pale-faced woman sat alone on the living room sofa watching television. The sound of the drama echoed through the house, but she had fallen asleep on the sofa. Countless nights had passed since then, and she had waited like this for her husband and son to come home. Seeing this, Shao Qingge felt a pang of sadness. He went over and gently helped her up, saying, "Mom, why are you sleeping on the sofa?"
As they got closer, Shao Qingge caught a faint, pleasant scent emanating from her, which seemed to be perfume.
Qin Wan sat up and rubbed her eyes. After seeing who it was, she quickly smiled gently and asked, "Where did you go today? Why are you only coming back now?"
Shao Qingge said in a low voice, "I went out to take care of some things." He led Ye Qi over and introduced her, "This is my mother."
Ye Qi bowed with a bright smile: "Hello, Grandma!"
Shao Qingge: "......"
Okay, there is indeed a problem with the generational hierarchy. Ye Qi is only 7 years old, so shouldn't he be calling his mother "Grandma"?
Qin Wan stared in astonishment at the bloodstains on Ye Qi's body: "Where did this child come from? Why is she covered in blood?"
Shao Qingge made up an excuse: "He's my friend's son. He didn't see where he was going because of the rain and fell. Luckily, it's all external injuries. His parents aren't home today, so I'm taking him home first. Mom, let's go upstairs and get ready."
After he finished speaking, he took Ye Qi to change into clean clothes, since being covered in blood was quite frightening.
There were no children's clothes at home, so Shao Qingge had to find one of his own sweaters in the closet for Ye Qi to wear. Little Ye Qi looked like a child wearing a sack of pants in his sweater, and Shao Qingge couldn't help but laugh out loud.
.
Ye Qi looked embarrassed: "I don't want to become a child either, stop laughing!"
Shao Qingge suppressed a laugh, glanced at the child wearing an adult sweater, and said softly, "He's quite cute."
Ye Qi didn't want to continue this awkward topic, so he urged, "Let's hurry up and ask your mother. Maybe she really knows where Grandpa Shao is."
Shao Qingge frowned, unsure how to begin. This woman wasn't his biological mother, just a figure in the secret room, yet he held over twenty years of memories of being raised by her in his mind; he couldn't treat her as a complete stranger. Everyone speculated that his father was likely the mastermind, and if his father were arrested and he left, this foster mother might be left alone for the rest of her life.
But no matter what, he could no longer be soft-hearted at this point.
Shao Qingge gently rubbed his temples, took Ye Qi downstairs, sat down in the living room, and asked, "Mom, Dad hasn't been home for so many days, do you know where he is?"
Qin Wan's expression darkened: "Probably at the company."
Shao Qingge turned to look at her: "Mom, tell me the truth. Is Dad having an affair?"
Qin Wan was silent for a moment, then sighed softly and lowered her head, saying, "Back when the doctor diagnosed me with infertility, he found a younger, prettier woman outside. He didn't divorce me because of the financial support my Qin family provided. That woman gave birth to his son, but he's never brought it up all these years, and I've always pretended not to know." She smiled bitterly and looked up at Shao Qingge, "After all, my son and I still depend on him for a living. You'd better not interfere in your father's affairs."
Just as Xiao Lou had predicted, she did know her husband had a mistress, but she pretended not to know.
Shao Qingge gently squeezed her hand and asked softly, "Where do they live?"
Qin Wan gave Shao Qingge an address.
Shao Qingge immediately informed Yu Hanjiang: "Jin Cui Villa, Building B-1. Should I go there now?"
Yu Hanjiang replied: "Don't alert them yet. I'll arrest Shao Zhengyang as soon as I have the results."
Rong Cheng remained defiant, insisting that he had simply been innocently on the tarmac for a few minutes. However, Song Xiaoqing had already confessed. Yu Hanjiang played the recording of Song Xiaoqing's testimony for Rong Cheng to hear: "If you confess now, you can serve as a witness for the prosecution. If you perform meritorious service, the judge may reduce your sentence. But if you don't confess, you will definitely be sentenced to death."
Song Xiaoqing confessed everything, and Rong Cheng had no choice but to confess everything as well.
But what shocked Yu Hanjiang was—
The boss is not Shao Zhengyang, but Qin Wan.
Qin Wan, Shao Qingge's mother, appears weak and innocent, but is actually ruthless.
Xiao Lou's heart nearly jumped out of his chest upon hearing the result. He said nervously, "Oh no, CEO Shao and Xiao Ye are right next to Qin Wan!"
Their reasoning was not fundamentally wrong. Since Uncle Zhong was the Shao family's steward and could help Shao Zhengyang, everyone focused their attention on Shao Zhengyang. But in reality, Uncle Zhong could also help the madam!
Shao Zhengyang knew Shao Qingge's whereabouts, so wouldn't his mother know even more about her son's whereabouts?
Today, when Shao Qingge went to Qingshui Town, he drove away in Shao Zhengyang's car, which had a tracking device inside. Since Shao Zhengyang hasn't been home for so many days, who is more likely to have planted the tracking device? It's Qin Wan!
His mother has been taking care of him since he was discharged from the hospital. She probably saw him going to the study to look through documents.
Xiao Lou felt increasingly uneasy and hurriedly said to Yu Hanjiang, " Captain Yu, quickly inform Shao Qingge!"
Fortunately, Yu Hanjiang and Shao Qingge were connected via Telepathic Connection, so they didn't need to make a phone call. They directly told Shao Qingge the truth through the Telepathic Connection channel: "The Boss isn't your father, but your mother. We'll be there as soon as possible. Be careful, she might harm you!"
At this moment, Shao Qingge and Ye Qi were sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Qin Wan brought over two bowls of steaming fish porridge, smiled, and placed them in front of the two of them, saying with a smile, "You two got caught in the rain, here, have some hot porridge first. Your friend's child is quite cute, he can rest at home tonight, and you can take him back tomorrow."
Shao Qingge felt a warmth in his heart: "Thank you, Mom."
He picked up the porridge, scooped up a spoonful, and was about to bring it to his mouth when he heard Yu Hanjiang's voice in his mind, saying, "Boss is your mother."
Shao Qingge: "......"
He looked at the bowl of porridge in front of him, his fingers stiffening slightly.
After Ye Qi transformed into the Insect King, he was only interested in blood. Even the most fragrant fish porridge held no appeal for him. But he still had to put on an act, so he picked up the fish porridge and drank it down in silence.
Shao Qingge tried to stop her, but it was too late. He watched helplessly as Ye Qi wolfed down half a bowl of porridge, his heart trembling. Fortunately, Ye Qi was the Insect King, so even if the porridge was poisonous, it wouldn't affect her. Shao Qingge dared not drink it. He put the bowl back on the table, smiled, and put his arm around Qin Wan's shoulder, putting on an act: "Mom, I had a late-night snack when I came back. If I eat any more, I'll be stuffed."
Seeing Shao Qingge put down the porridge, Ye Qi keenly sensed something was wrong, but he ignored it and continued to finish the rest of his drink.
Qin Wan's gaze softened: "Would you like a glass of water?"
Shao Qingge hurriedly waved his hand: "No need, I'm a little tired, I'll go back to my room to rest first."
Just moments ago, he was feeling sorry for this woman, thinking that with her husband arrested and her son gone, she might spend the rest of her life alone and destitute. But then, Yu Hanjiang told him such a shocking truth—
Looking at the woman with a gentle smile on her face, he felt goosebumps creeping down his spine.
Upon careful reflection, there were actually some flaws in the woman's previous conversations with him.
She said that Shao Qingge's heart belonged to a death row inmate who had left behind a son. To express his gratitude for Shao Qingge saving his life, he had given Uncle Zhong 50 million gold coins, which Uncle Zhong was to pass on to the inmate's son as a token of appreciation. At the time, Shao Qingge thought she was too kind, not only giving the death row inmate 20 million from the money he earned from selling his kidney, but also giving him an extra 50 million as a thank-you gift.
But now that I think about it carefully... kind people aren't stupid. What thank-you gift could be more valuable than a kidney itself?!
This is like someone finding your wallet containing 200,000 yuan, and you giving them 500,000 yuan as a thank you—it's just unreasonable!
It's likely that the 500,000 was Uncle Zhong's hard-earned money, and she said that because she was afraid the police would find out.
The 200,000 yuan that Shao Zhengyang told Yu Hanjiang was based on the price given to him by Uncle Zhong. Shao Zhengyang was not very clear about the price of organs and only listened to Uncle Zhong's report. In fact, Shao Zhengyang was also kept in the dark by his wife.
Shao Zhengyang has been missing for so many days, and given his affair and illegitimate child, could it be that she killed him?
The more Shao Qingge thought about it, the more chills ran down his spine, especially with Qin Wan sitting next to him, smiling gently and lovingly. Shao Qingge was in a state of turmoil, but on the surface, he pretended to know nothing. He got up with Ye Qi and said, "Mom, you should go to sleep early. Xiao Ye and I are going to sleep too. It's raining too hard outside, and the child is afraid of the dark. Let him sleep in my bedroom for the night."
Qin Wan's smile grew even gentler: "Okay, take good care of your friend's child."
Shao Qingge said "Goodnight" and then took Ye Qi's hand and went upstairs.
After returning to his room, Shao Qingge gently closed the door and leaned against it to exhale.
Ye Qi looked puzzled: "What's going on?"
Shao Qingge made a "shh" gesture to his lips, raised Ye Qi's hand, and wrote in his palm: "She is the Boss."
Ye Qi: "......"
