Chapter 35: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole
"How do you lure a snake out of a hole?" Shang Yucheng asked.
Ye Shen took a sip of tea unhurriedly before saying, "Let's sort out the causes and consequences of Wu Hong's case first." β
He stood up and said in an orderly manner, "Wu Hong was originally Lu Jingpeng's disgraceful lover, but you stabbed him in front of Zhao Yilin. Zhao Yilin got your hint and met Wu Hong himself, so he sent someone to follow Lu Jingpeng and grasped the facts of Lu Jingpeng's relationship with Wu Hong. As a result, Zhao Yilin and Lu Jingpeng had a big quarrel and almost divorced. Am I right? Ye Shen looked at Shang Yucheng with a smile and asked.
Shang Yucheng smiled faintly, "Ye Shen, why do you want to be so clever and show your cleverness?" Zhao Yilin's tracking of Lu Jingpeng was clearly known when you sent someone to investigate Mr. Shu, do you think you did a clean job? β
Ye Shen smiled, without the slightest sense of shame, and continued, "After Zhao Yilin and Lu Jingpeng quarreled, Wu Hong disappeared. A few days later, Wu Hong reappeared and stayed in the most luxurious suite of the Capital Hotel in an extremely high-profile manner. At the same time, there are witnesses that she is always followed by someone close to her - isn't that intriguing? It's just an outdated dancer, even if she saves a little money, is it really necessary to be so extravagant? β
Shu Qiang frowned, "Isn't it easy to deduce the fact that she was being held hostage?" β
Ye Shen pouted and said, "Inspector Shu, you said that you are also a person who has been a detective, have you ever seen such a blatant hijacking?" β
"You!" Shu Qiang pointed at him angrily.
"Ye Shen-" Shang Yucheng frowned, "If you want to say it, you can keep talking, and if you don't say it, you won't open your mouth." Don't talk with a gun and a stick. β
Ye Shen looked at Shang Yucheng with an obvious look of submission on his face, and continued, "Through the misleading testimony of that so-called witness, the police will smoothly come to an inference: Wu Hong's sudden disappearance was due to her sense of danger, and her high-profile appearance - on the one hand, she felt that the opponent would not make a move in a conspicuous place like the Capital Hotel, and on the other hand, it may be that she has a secret that can pose a threat to the other party. And with her are the people who protect her. But this murderer took a risk, and finally killed Wu Hong. β
"It's not hard to believe such a logically complete and reasonable story, right?" Ye Shen looked at Shang Yucheng and Shu Qiang and smiled.
Shang Yuchengzi thought about it carefully, exchanged glances with Shu Qiang, and then nodded, "You have a point." But what is the point of such a true or false story? If you don't have to go to such trouble to get rid of your suspicions, do you? β
Ye Shen smiled, "I didn't just say it, it's time for you to go on the stage and play a drama to lure the snake out of the hole." β
Shang Yucheng looked at him, waiting for him to continue.
Although the relationship between Wu Hong and Lu Jingpeng is secret, if you make a lot of effort to investigate, it is not difficult to find out. And the dispute between Lu Jingpeng and his wife because of Wu Hong - I think Miss Shang must be as happy as I am to confirm it for them. β
Ye Shen smiled slightly, "The direction of the police investigation will soon point to Lu Jingpeng." Lu Jingpeng is a hidden old fox and is not easy to deal with, but if Zhao Yilin knows that his husband is actually a murderer, I'm afraid it will be difficult to calm down. β
"Do you want to take advantage of the contradiction between Zhao Yilin and Lu Jingpeng to make Lu Jingpeng show his feet?" Shu Qiang said.
Ye Shen nodded and looked at Shang Yucheng.
Shang Yucheng smiled slightly, "Mr. Shu, if we have a disagreement with Mr. Ye one day, remind me that we must think of a way to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle, so that he can't speak up." β
Ye Shen was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile, "Didn't Miss Shang conclude that I was only smart?" You are a man of great wisdom - there is no need to intimidate me like that! β
Shang Yucheng couldn't help but smile, she cleared her throat, "I know what to do." β
Ye Shen nodded, "Then it's up to Miss Shang." β
"That's all about Wu Hong." Ye Shen sat down, adding tea to the cup in front of Shang Yucheng, and said, "You called me today, you didn't originally plan to talk about Wu Hong, right?"
Shang Yucheng nodded, and turned to Shu Qiang, "Did the money be deposited in Zhao Wenxuan's name?" β
Shu Qiang nodded, "I went to do it early this morning." β
Ye Shen smiled, "You deposited the stolen money from that jewelry into Zhao Wenxuan's bank account?" β
Shang Yucheng nodded, "This was planned a long time ago. Only in this way can the charge of reselling fake goods be confirmed on Zhao Wenxuan's body, and he will not implicate others. She glanced at Ye Shen, "It can also prevent Ye from being suspicious." β
Ye Shen smiled, "It seems that you are still angry about my accusation yesterday." β
Shang Yucheng shook his head, "What you said yesterday was right. I was indeed in a hurry to deal with Zhao Wenxuan, ignoring the collateral harm to others. β
She looked up at Ye Shen, "I should apologize to you for this incident." β
Ye Shen also looked at her, and only smiled after a moment, "It's not necessary to apologize, but you owe me once, let me write it down?" I'll ask you for favors later. β
Shang Yucheng nodded, "Okay." I owe you once, remember. β
Ye Shen smiled, as if he didn't take it seriously, and continued, "Leng Fanqing has been in charge of the Leng clan for so many years, you may not be able to deceive him in such a trap. I am afraid that although he punished Zhao Wenxuan for the sake of Leng's face for a while, he caught their attention. β
Shang Yucheng frowned and thought for a while, and then said, "Then according to what you mean, what about this matter?" β
"Now that you're here, just wait and see what happens." Ye Shen did not answer Shang Yucheng's words. He took a sip of tea and stood up, "Can we finish this secret meeting?" I still have some mundane things that I need to take care of. β
Shang Yucheng glanced at him, "Since Mr. Ye has something to do, then I won't keep you." β
Ye Shen smiled and said goodbye and went downstairs.
Shu Qiang watched Ye Shen leave, and then frowned and said, "Miss Shang, this Ye Shen-"
Shang Yucheng turned his head to look at him, "Ye Shen has already sensed our plan, I must stabilize him." She paused, "And Ye Shen has helped us many times, I don't think he looks like he has a ghost in his heart." Since he wants to contribute to Su Jingyao's affairs, it doesn't hurt to fulfill him. β
Shu Qiang nodded, "Miss Shang has a point, but I don't think he is simple. Shu Qiang paused, and then said, "Ye Shen and Miss Su have never known each other, how can they believe in Miss Su's innocence so much, and then participate in our plan?" β
Shang Yucheng nodded, "The answer given by Ye Shen to this question is indeed not very convincing. "But I can't think of any reason why he would lie to me." Let's leave this matter like this for the time being, since he already knows about Zhao Wenxuan and Lu Jingpeng, it doesn't hurt to ask him for help. But-" Shang Yucheng paused, "Don't let Su Jingyao know about finding the little boy for the time being." β
Shu Qiang nodded hesitantly, "Miss Shang, Ye Shen is scheming, and you must be more careful when dealing with him." β
Shang Yucheng smiled and nodded, "This is nature. β
Saying goodbye to Shu Qiang, Shang Yucheng took a detour to Huijin Department Store to buy two things before returning home.
After entering the door, Shang Yucheng hadn't turned his head yet, and heard Lu Jingcheng's voice from the house, "You're back?" β
Shang Yucheng turned his head to look at him in some surprise, "Jing Cheng? Didn't you go to Ye Shen? Why are you still with me. She said as she approached Lu Jingcheng and handed the things in her hand to Xianglin, who came to hear the sound.
Lu Jingcheng glanced at him expressionlessly, and turned to Xianglin and said, "Xianglin, I asked Mother Zhang to boil lotus seed soup, you can bring some for Miss to taste." β
Xianglin glanced at Shang Yucheng, responded obediently, put down the things in his hand, and hurriedly went out.
Shang Yucheng looked at Lu Jingcheng's expression, and while sitting down beside him, he said suspiciously, "What's wrong Jingcheng?" Didn't talk well with Mr. Ye? β
Lu Jingcheng turned his head to look at her, and said hesitantly, "Yucheng-"
Shang Yucheng looked at him like this and said with a smile, "What's wrong with you?" Slurred. And what else can't I say? β
Lu Jingcheng hesitated for a moment, looked at Shang Yucheng's eyes and said, "Yucheng, since I was with you, I have always been wholeheartedly devoted to you. You get that, right? β
Shang Yucheng nodded without hesitation and said with a smile, "This is nature. If not, why am I going to marry you? β
Lu Jingcheng stared at her, "You're nowβyou don't regret it, do you?" β
Shang Yucheng looked at him strangely, "Jing Cheng, what's wrong with you, why do you always say such strange things." What the hell is going on? β
Although the expression on her face was innocent, but at this time, Shang Yucheng was a little drumming in his heart, Lu Jingcheng said such a thing, obviously he knew or saw something, could it be that he found the trap at yesterday's engagement party?
Lu Jingcheng rolled his eyes, "Since you said so, then what happened between you and Ye Shen?" β
When Shang Yucheng heard this, he stood up in shock, "Me and Ye Shen? What do you mean by that? β
Lu Jingcheng also stood up and said with a calm face, "I didn't feel normal yesterday, why did I find a fake diamond on you, but Ye Shen had to come out?" I'm your fiancΓ©! I haven't said anything, when will it be his turn? β
Shang Yucheng heard his mean words, and couldn't help but sink his face, "It turns out that you still know that I am my unmarried husband!" Even Ye Shen knows how to stand up for his female companion, but you only care about the cooperative relationship with the Leng family. At this time, he turned around and questioned me? β
Lu Jingcheng sneered and nodded, "That's right." I'm really worried about business. Ye Shen is angry for you regardless of it, isn't it? β
Shang Yucheng paused, "Ye Shen has always been a careless and willful young master, you know this better than me. But what is he going to do is his business, and what does it have to do with me? Lu Jingcheng, I understand that your career is not stable now, and I have repeatedly tolerated you, you don't want to make an inch! β
Lu Jingcheng's face turned white, "I have to inch in?" What is there I not doing for our future? What about you? Other men on the night of the engagement, you think I won't know? β
Shang Yucheng was stunned, and didn't know what to say for a while.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Lu Jingcheng thought that he had caught Shang Yucheng's sore foot, stepped forward and pulled Shang Yucheng's arm, and asked angrily, "What did you do when you met Ye Shen?" β
Shang Yucheng shook off his hand and said coldly, "He just came to comfort me when he saw that I was in a low mood, what do you think we did?" She looked at Lu Jingcheng, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Could it be that I became your fiancΓ©e, and I can't even say a word to other men?" β
Lu Jingcheng looked at Shang Yucheng's indifferent expression, listened to her sarcastic words, and remembered the sympathy on the faces of the subordinates who had just reported to him that Shang Yucheng and Ye Shen had met late at night, and couldn't help but slap him in the face!
