Chapter 247: Why Can't I Be Happy?
Linda listened to me and was silent in her seat for a long time.
Probably like this, they are too persistent in the predicament, get into the horns of the bull, and lose even the most basic analytical ability, which is probably the "mystery" of the authorities.
"Who is the man who drove the car that sat in the same car with Jiang Mei just now?" I thought the person was familiar, so I wanted to ask Linda if she knew him.
"It should be Zheng Ye, Zheng Dong's son, don't you remember?" Linda recalled.
"Zheng Ye. I repeated the name, finally remembering who he was.
At the press conference of the Starlight Project, Chu Qingchuan attended as Ai Hui, when he was in Yaoshi Auction, and Zheng Ye was one of Yaoshi's shareholders.
Zheng Ye is also the youngest son of Zheng Datong, a member of the board of directors of FW, and I remember that Zheng Dong also said kind words such as asking Chu Qingchuan to teach dogs more.
"Why is he with Jiang Mei?" I can't help but suspect that there is something wrong with it. Judging from Zheng Ye's identity and social circle, it is indeed a bit abrupt for Jiang Mei to sit in the same car with him, and Zheng Ye actually served as her driver in person......
I can almost conclude that Jiang Mei's rise in status was after making a big fuss with Linda, and if she had the ability and connections at that time, she would not have given up like that.
When I told Linda to stop, she didn't seem to listen. Perhaps, everything is already determined.
Different people, even if they do the same thing in the same way, will have different results due to their behavior, language, and habits of dealing with others.
Thinking about it, in the short time after Jiang Mei made trouble with Linda, it seems that a lot of things have happened? Was it a mistake of judgment for Linda to assert that Jiang Mei would not go back to discuss countermeasures with Owen?
"Sunshine, I seem to have figured out something. Perhaps it was my question that gave Linda a hint, and she slowly turned her face to my side.
I waited for her to speak.
"Some time ago, it was reported in the news that Zheng Dong was critically ill and admitted to the hospital, and the lawyer read out the will after the critical illness notice was issued. Because there are more children, the distribution of property will definitely be disputed, and as the highlight of the inheritance, he handed over the shares of FW to his youngest daughter to inherit...... "Linda said this, without continuing, leaving me time to think.
"Are you trying to say that Zheng Ye wants to use the Xingmang scandal to bring down Xingmang because he is jealous of this inheritance, so that the most direct consequence is to damage the reputation of Xingmang's largest contractor, FW, and then the stock price will fall and the market value will shrink?" I speculated.
"Rumors say that the Star Project is secretly doing some shady things, although this rumor is certainly not confirmed, but FW's stock price is indeed falling all the way. Linda continued to analyze.
I'm starting to feel like it's all coming to an eyebrow.
On the premise that the above inference is established, Zheng Ye found Owen to cooperate with FW, as an executive of FW's competitors, Owen must be looking forward to this scene.
So Ke'er's case was also collected by Zheng Ye and sent to Ryan for him to make public?
According to what Liu Yixian said, Ryan defends justice on the surface, but behind the scenes, he takes the opportunity to accumulate money, but he is actually a greedy person. If Zheng Ye puts the money in place in advance, and then lets Ryan "" public opinion, he can also meet Ryan's request.
In this way, except for the incomprehensible contact between Jiang Mei and Zheng Ye, other inferences seem to be connected.
"Owen's purpose in making you confess is to divert the attention of the prosecutor and the public, so that people will not suspect the AC he works for, second, to make up for the negative impact of his previous theft of FW and Chenmei's trade secrets on AC, and third, as the senior person in charge of the Xingguang Project, you will take the initiative to confess your guilt, which will inevitably cause a heavy blow to FW's reputation......
That's a lot of good things. I really didn't expect him to become like this. "I remembered the sunny and enthusiastic guy I met in the elevator when I went to the AC interview, and he said his name was Owen. However, in just a few years, it has long been unrecognizable.
Linda nodded, still a little confused, and asked, "But what does all this have to do with you, and why is it mixed with slander and insults against you?"
"After all, I was the original initiator of Project Starlight. Even though I replied in this way, I felt that the reason was not very convincing.
When the scandal broke out, I had already left my job, and the painstaking effort to pull me in didn't seem to help bring down FW's stock price, and the biggest consequence of this was a lot of personal distress and trouble, and more importantly, reputational damage.
Could it be that among these people, I have offended before, and I am taking the opportunity to take revenge?
Anyway, at least we have a direction that we can follow this trail on.
In order to avoid startling the snake, I asked Officer Xiaohu to meet me at my house, and Linda agreed to call the police, first confess part of the facts, and then cooperate with the police.
I also know that the reason why she chose to take on everything herself is that she did use the million.
When Owen transferred the money to Linda's account in the name of Hanhan's child support, she didn't want to move. This money can be saved for Han Han as an education fund, and secondly, in order to prevent Owen from having a backhand, she will hand over the money if necessary.
Coincidentally, Linda's younger brother in his hometown happened to have an accident during this period, he hit and killed a pedestrian due to fatigue driving, and the other party's family proposed that at least 2 million yuan could be private, and the insurance company did not pay compensation.
Linda's hometown is in a fourth-tier city in the interior, and her younger brother is only three years younger than her.
In order to save her brother, Linda took out all her savings and borrowed some money, which was still not enough. She thought of selling the house, but the house couldn't be sold all at once, the family of the deceased was pressing step by step, and her parents were so worried that they couldn't bear it, so Linda couldn't bear it, so she had to use the money given by Owen to fill it after the house was sold.
"The house is sold?" I asked.
"Sign the contract in two days. Linda replied.
"Don't sell it, I'll lend you the money. Where do you and Hanhan live after selling the house?" I know that Linda will definitely sell the house at a low price in order to raise money, and the reason why she didn't want to tell me just now, I also understand.
"I can understand that you don't want to trouble me, but now that you don't trouble me, it's the biggest trouble you've caused me. "I was like saying a tongue twister.
"Hmm. Linda didn't say "thank you" to me, but I understood her feelings, and she was too heavy to say thank you.
"I'm helping you, and I'm helping myself. I helped her unload her burden and drove home.
Officer Xiaohu was already waiting for us downstairs, and when I went upstairs, I noticed that the things related to Liu Jing in the house were empty.
She moved away.
After listening to Linda's statement, Officer Xiaohu expressed his hope that Linda would cooperate with the operation, and the police have not been able to come forward to investigate at present, and Linda and Owen need to continue to trade and confirm the incriminating evidence.
Linda agrees to an interview with Owen, and the police will take surveillance measures to ensure that the evidence is conclusive.
At the same time, the police will also launch an investigation into Zheng Ye, and Yaoshi, which he controls, may be suspected of unfair competition.
I don't need to worry about the rest of the matter, but I still want to find out who and what is related to me.
Ryan brought me to the rhythm when he broke the news, could it also be that Zheng Ye instructed me? I didn't have a holiday with Zheng Ye, and even had very little intersection.
However, for now, I want to visit Kerr in the hospital first. Her beast father has not been caught, Mu Zhan's suspicion cannot be cleared, the school is now closed, the Xingmang Project has also entered a suspension period, the fermentation of online violence has accelerated, and some whistleblowers said that Xingmang used crowdfunding funds to make illegal investments.
When I took out my phone again to refresh the news page, I saw that there was another self-media fabricating my life.
They were very set, not only attached photos of my childhood, but also photos of my mother and Liu Cheng'an, and the words implied that my mother was dating multiple men at the same time, etc......
I took a screenshot and saved it, and I was ready to entrust a lawyer to sue these self-media who are accustomed to spreading rumors.
Probably because the cost of lying and rumor-mongering is too low, this kind of garbage appears.
However, there is also a real shadow of the apocryphal fabrication, and I vaguely feel that these old things that have been turned out have something to do with Liu Jing.
This time. I remembered my mother's diary that I hadn't destroyed.
Except for Zhan Jiang, all the parties involved are dead, and there is probably only one possibility that can be made up based on old things, that is, they have read that diary.
During this period, the most suspicious person was Liu Jing, who was in the same room with me before.
My ability to reason and hypothesize has taken a qualitative leap forward as a result of recent encounters.
The ever-gloomy sky tore a crack, and twilight shone in.
The dull mood of the past few days has eased a little, and I have received a message from Yang without regrets.
She reported Chu Qingchuan's situation to me: "Jiaoyang, I told him that you were busy as you told him before, but he didn't continue to ask. However, he just learned that Sister Meng had passed away. I have been standing alone in front of the window of the ward for a long time. Would you like to come back and see him? If the doctor hadn't stopped us, he would have gone to the cemetery. ”
When Sister Meng died, Chu Qingchuan was still in danger, and he lost his memory when he woke up. I should have thought that after he recovered his memory, he would definitely be hit hard when he learned that Sister Meng had died.
Will he blame me for not telling him earlier, and not letting him pay homage to his mother? I felt like my entire ribcage was filled with cotton, and I had to breathe heavily to get better.
I opened my phone's location tracking app and saw that little red dot flashing in the hospital.
It was a miniature GPRS tracker that I asked Lin Yuan to install on the Patek Philippe movement that I gave to Chu Qingchuan. Because he was lost that time, I thought of such a solution, but I didn't expect it to become my way to avoid him now.
It's okay, even if it's just looking at it like this, I'll feel a little more at ease.
Maybe he'll hate me because of Sister Meng...... If so, it should be a good thing that I can better fulfill my promise to Luther, but why am I not happy at all?
