Chapter 37: Scheming Money Worshiping Substitute 37
Ling Zhi and others were sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. The two nearby hospitals were crowded with people with serious and minor injuries.
This series of car accidents had a great impact and was reported on TV. However, the casualties were not serious. Except for the truck driver who died on the spot, Zhou Congli’s driver and Assistant Zhang injured their legs and had to lie down for three to five months, and the other’s ribs Two were broken, and the others had minor injuries.
After investigation, it was found that the truck driver was drunk at the time, but what was witnessed by the surveillance cameras and the surrounding vehicles was obviously a murder with a clear target against Zhou Congli. The situation was so bad that the police immediately launched an investigation.
A person was accidentally discovered, Zhang Wenhua.
Lin Zhi still remembers him, Mr. Zhang, who made things difficult for her at the C City Food Factory, but ended up compensating her money because of Zhou Congli.
The truck driver once contacted him, and then his son was sent abroad to study. This seemed fishy. The police questioned Zhang Wenhua. He refused to tell at first, but later he said he was jealous of Zhou Congli when he couldn't stand the questioning. She bullied him over a woman in City C, so she wanted to come back for revenge.
The police were furious: "Because of this trivial matter, you dare to hire a murderer? So many innocent people are involved!"
Zhang Wenhua cried bitterly: "I was just impulsive, and now I have I regret it. Please give me another chance. I am willing to use all my property to compensate.”
Surprisingly, the truck driver himself was not clean. He was killed in a hit-and-run accident more than ten years ago. A newlywed couple whose parents are still looking for the murderer.
The four gray-haired old people were angry and relieved when they saw the driver's death.
After the trial, Zhang Wenhua was imprisoned for twenty years as a person who paid for the murder. He spent all his wealth to compensate the victims at the scene of the car accident. The truck driver’s wife and son had divorced him and did not plan to pay compensation at the moment. Still have to keep doing the work.
Ling Zhi felt aggrieved when she saw Zhang Wenhua being punished. She didn't believe it could be so simple. She was even more irritated when Zhou Ye came to the hospital with a flower basket to see her.
“Get out!” Zhou Congli’s eyes were heavy.
Zhou Ye put down his things: "Okay, I just came to tell my elder brother and sister-in-law that Ruoyao and I are getting married next month. Remember to come and attend." He left the ward happily.
Lin Zhi looked at his back and became more sure that this matter had something to do with him. She looked at Zhou Congli: "Husband..."
Zhou Congli tucked the quilt for her and said calmly: "Good boy, your fetus is not healthy now." Stay calm, have a good rest, don’t think about anything, I will arrange the rest.”
The impact was severe at the time, and even with his protection, Lin Zhi’s fetus was still affected and needed to rest.
"Okay, then you should have a good rest." Although it was not clear whether Zhou Congli thought of his younger brother, he was busy with a lot of things now, and he was tired and black at the moment. Lin Zhi could only hold back. anxious.
However, that night, Zhou Ye was taken away by the police.
At that time, she was listening to Mrs. Zhou's instructions in the ward. Because of the car accident, Mrs. Zhou also knew about her pregnancy. I wonder if she brought chicken soup made by the nanny at home for the sake of the grandson in her belly. Look at her.
Although Lin Zhi didn't like her very much, he didn't always have a cold face. He would eat whatever the other party wanted to give her.
But after talking about protecting the fetus and other matters, the two had nothing to say. Mrs. Zhou remembered that her second son was about to marry Li Ruoyao, so she mentioned this matter and asked her not to cause trouble at the wedding.
Ling Zhi raised her lips and said, "It depends on the situation." Just because she didn't provoke them didn't mean they wouldn't provoke her.
Mrs. Zhou was angered by her attitude: "We are all from the same family. It's a big deal..." The call came at this time. Mrs. Zhou answered it irritably and casually asked what was wrong. She didn't know. What was said on the other side made her stunned, and then she turned pale.
He didn't say anything, he forgot his bag, and stumbled out the door. The nurse was carrying things as she was about to come in, but she was knocked away, and all the needles and medicine bottles on the plate fell to the ground. There were patients, nurses and doctors in the corridor, who were all shocked by her rampage.
Ling Zhi's heartbeat was a little fast for some reason. She called Zhou Congli. Before he could speak, the man's voice was calm: "I'm at the police station. You can take a good rest after hanging up. I'll be back when I'm done." ."
She heard the noisy voice on the other end, held back her urgency, told him to come back early, and hung up the phone.
The wait lasted until the afternoon of the next day. Lin Zhi couldn't stand it any longer. The door of the ward opened from the outside. Zhou Congli walked in with a tired look on his face. He had not changed his clothes all night.
He held her in his arms and rested his head heavily on her shoulder: "Are you worried that something bad happened? It has been solved and everything will be fine in the future."
Ling Zhi had a guess in her heart: "My mother heard a phone call yesterday. Gone."
"Is it Zhou Ye?"
Zhou Congli was silent for a long time, nodded, and hugged her tightly: "I didn't plan to doubt him at first, but after thinking about it, it seems that no one but him would hate me so much."
His voice Very plain: "When I die, all his obstacles will be removed."
Whether it's family business or reputation. As long as he and Lin Zhi die and Zhou Ye becomes the new leader of Dongning, who will care about his and Li Ruoyao's past?
A few years, more than ten years from now, everyone will only remember Zhou Ye, the new president, and no one will remember Zhou Congli, the dead eldest brother.
Ling Zhi could feel the pain in Zhou Congli's heart, but only for a moment, the unspeakable pain in his heart gradually disappeared or was hidden in the deepest part: "This time, he can't come out again. .”
After staying in the hospital for half a month, Lin Zhi was discharged and the two returned to their apartment.
At this time, Zhou Ye's court hearing arrived. She and Zhou Congli changed into solemn clothes and went to the scene. As victims, they sat opposite Zhou Ye and listened to the judge sentence him to jail for thirty years.
Mrs. Zhou cried so hard that her heart broke, but the evidence was conclusive. It was Zhou Ye who gave Zhang Wenhua the confidence to dare to commit murder and hurt others.
This is no longer a fight between brothers, and Zhou Congli is not the only victim. He is destined to stay in prison. When he was taken away, Zhou Ye hesitated. It was not until he was about to walk out of the court that he seemed to think of himself. He will spend the next thirty years in prison, struggling like crazy.
The guard gave him an electric baton, and Zhou Ye collapsed instantly and was dragged away.
Ling Zhi and Zhou Congli also stood up and were about to leave, but they saw Li Ruoyao wearing a mask. She lowered her head and was about to leave. Suddenly Mrs. Zhou rushed over and grabbed her hair: "Bitch, it's all you! Why would Ah Ye do this if it wasn't for you? You are not willing to seduce him alone. Are you satisfied now?"
Li Ruoyao was pulled, and the mask on her face fell off, revealing her face that had not fully recovered, and was beaten hard by Mrs. Zhou. A few slaps were given.
Mr. Zhou quickly pulled Mrs. Zhou away: "Stop making trouble and go home."
Li Ruoyao also hurriedly left with her head lowered.
