Chapter Eighty-Five: Shadow Invasion
Jing Sheng sat in the audience on the second floor, poking his head out and looking at the three people on the court outside the window with a worried expression.
When they arrived here, Lu Jisheng didn't let her go to the stadium with him, just watch it in the audience. and sent a few capable bodyguards to guard her.
She was the only one in the spacious and bright audience hall, as well as the bodyguards arranged by Lu Jisheng and the service staff of several clubs.
She saw that the three of them seemed to be chatting about something, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious from a distance.
She got up early today to change the medicine on Lu Jisheng's arm and did a massage for a long time, just because she was worried that his old injury would affect his performance today.
But now it seems that Lu Jisheng has coped with him very well.
The elegant black shirt concealed the scars on his shoulders and perfectly accentuated the lines of his muscles, and the slim trousers wrapped around his two long straight legs. At this moment, he is also like a king who does not smile on the court, exuding a dazzling aura.
Jing Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the juice at hand and drank it.
Well...... The taste was ok. The juice is purple-red, like grape juice, but it is not the same as what you drink in China.
Just as she relaxed, there was a vibration from her phone.
It's an unfamiliar number plus her WeChat friend.
Who is it? She clicked on the person's avatar and found that this person was actually an aunt she hadn't seen for a long time.
She clicked through, and the other party immediately sent a message to herself: [Shengsheng, are you okay! I heard that there was an earthquake in your area? 】
This aunt is a distant relative of her own family, and she basically has little intersection except for visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year. How can you suddenly care about yourself at this time?
She replied: [I'm fine, I'm fine. Is there anything wrong with Auntie? 】
Zhang Lan showed the information on her mobile phone to the police officer Ning Ke and asked, "How am I going back now?" ”
"Where is she, you ask? Don't talk about her mother's disappearance directly, tap on the side to see what she's doing. Ningke said.
When their search team was investigating at the home of the deceased Zhang Yimei today, they happened to meet Zhang Lan, who had come to collect debts.
Zhang Lan is a distant relative of Jingsheng's family, and when Chen Xuefeng gambled the most, Zhang Yimei was forced to borrow money from relatives. As a nouveau riche, Zhang Lan directly lent them a sum of money in order to show his arrogance.
But later, the money has not been repaid, and now they can't be contacted, Zhang Lan was in a hurry, so she came directly to the door.
Her search just happened to solve the urgent need of the police.
Ning Ke is worried that he can't find a contact person. So he immediately took Zhang Lan back to the police station and asked her to contact the owner's daughter Chen Jingsheng through her mobile phone number to find out more clues.
After making a few phone calls, he said that he was not in the service area, so Ning Ke asked Zhang Lan to try to add WeChat to see if he could get in touch.
[I'm not here to urge your dad to pay back!] Shengsheng, don't blame your aunt for urging you, it's really because we also need money! If your father doesn't pay us back, we won't be able to live anymore. 】
Before Jingsheng could reply, Zhang Lan sent another message: [Shengsheng, where are you now? Why don't you go home? 】
Jingsheng's hand holding the phone trembled a little, she didn't know that her father had borrowed money from her aunt's family, and she didn't know how much she had to pay back.
She bit her lower lip and replied: [I'm abroad now, and I still have some money in my hand, I'll transfer it to you when I return to China.] How much does Dad owe? 】
Ning Ke read the information and secretly screamed in his heart, he didn't expect that she had already gone abroad.
They found out from the bank that Chen Jingsheng had transferred money to Chen Xuefeng, so they suspected that the two of them might be accomplices. At this time, if the suspect knows that the police have targeted her, it is likely that she will stay abroad and not come back.
So Ning Ke said to Zhang Lan: "Don't tell her that the police are looking for you, let her return to China as soon as possible." ”
"Okay." Zhang Lan agreed.
[Your father, he has now left a pile of IOUs and run away, and we can't find his people so we have to come to you. When will you come back? You can rest assured that your aunt will not force you to pay it back immediately, just let you come back and press a handprint to prove that someone is responsible for these arrears. 】
"Is that okay?" Zhang Lan showed Ning Ke the information that had been sent.
“…… It's okay. "Ning Ke's face has a black line, what if people see that there is a debt and directly block you and can't get it back? He looked nervously at the phone screen.
If she is really blocked, then this clue will be broken, and any relative who adds her in the future will be considered a debt collector and refused. It is not easy to track down people abroad.
However, to his surprise, Jing Sheng quickly replied with a message: [Okay, I'll go back and deal with you as soon as possible. 】
Actually said he wanted to come back? Ning Ke touched her chin with her hand, if she was an accomplice to that Chen Xuefeng, she would probably refuse to contact these relatives and friends again, which would expose herself.
Then it seems that this person should not be an accomplice. Think about it, it would be terrible if someone's daughter could murder her mother with her father and talk to people so calmly.
[What day is it?] You say a date, my aunt has a good number in mind! 】
Jingsheng looked up at Lu Jisheng's figure on the court, with a low expression: [I'm not sure now, I'll get back to you in the afternoon.] 】
[It's afternoon, it's five o'clock.] 】
Jingsheng looked at her watch, it was ten o'clock in the morning, and she had just forgotten to calculate the time difference.
[I'm sorry it's still morning here, I'll get back to you tomorrow when you get there, okay?] 】
"Ask her exactly where she is." Ningke said.
[Which country and where are you located?] 】
[I'm in Munich, Germany. I will definitely return to China in a few days, auntie, don't worry. 】
[No hurry, no hurry, just come back.] That aunt is waiting for your letter! 】
[Hmm.] Jingsheng replied, and it didn't take long for her to send another message herself: [By the way, Auntie, how is my mother? I haven't reached her in a long time! 】
"This ...... How do you say that? Zhang Lan felt very uncomfortable after reading Jingsheng's question.
She learned through the police that Jingsheng's mother had unfortunately died, and that she had been killed by her own father. Such a thing can't be said at once, and she is worried that Jingsheng's spirit will not be able to stand it.
"Hmm...... You say that her mother is sick and needs her to come back and take care of her. Ningke replied with a frown. If this person really didn't participate in the crime, it would be cruel to suddenly tell her such news.
I'll wait until I get to the police station.
[Shengsheng, your mother has been sick recently, lying in the hospital, waiting for you to take care of her. 】
The other party immediately replied: [What kind of illness is serious? Where are you sick and in which hospital? 】
[Hey, it's not serious, it's just a small cold.] Auntie is here to watch it, it will be fine in a few days, your mother is fine, I just miss you very much, you can come back and have a look! 】
It turned out to be a cold...... The tight strings in Jing Sheng's mind finally relaxed a little, and she was glad in her heart that there was no big thing.
[Okay, then I'll go back as soon as possible in the next few days and tell my mother that there is no need to worry, I'm fine now.] I'll bring her some souvenir gifts when I go back. 】
Zhang Lan couldn't help but feel pity for her when she looked at the information, and said to herself on the phone: "Hey, this kid is really good, he is very polite to visit relatives during the New Year, and he is also beautiful." It's a shame that something like this happened at home, and there was a good future for it. ”
Ning Ke sighed deeply, there was nothing he could do about such a family tragedy.
Another message came from Jingsheng's side: [I will also bring a lot of gifts to Auntie for you and your children, please talk to my mother more, thank you!] 】
Zhang Lan and Ning Ke glanced at each other, their expressions heavy.
Zhang Lan's eyes moistened, her fingers trembled a little, and she replied: [Shengsheng, actually... Your mother is in good spirits now, and she told you not to worry about her! You don't have to worry so much about the money your dad owes, you can pay it back anyway, you can go over there and have fun for a while, and then come back when you've had enough. 】
[Okay, thank you, Auntie! 】
"Hey, what's ...... you??" Ning Ke was a little angry, the clues he had finally found were trying to let her come back quickly to participate in the investigation, and Zhang Lan would drag on for a long time if she was so agitated.
"Just let her have some more fun." Zhang Lan's eyes were sad, "When she comes back, I'm afraid I will be sad for the rest of my life." ”
"......" Ning Ke was speechless, he didn't blame Zhang Lan anymore, let her fill out a few forms, press her handprints and let her go.
—-—-——
Putting down his phone, Jing Sheng felt a stone in his chest.
Again debt.
In the past few years, her father has brought them family wave after wave of debts that seem to never be repaid.
Mom should not be able to withstand the pressure of debt collection to catch a cold. Fortunately, it was just a cold, and there was nothing serious about it.
Jingsheng leaned his whole body on the back of the chair and lowered his eyes to look at Lu Jisheng on the court outside the window.
I don't know when his treatment will be better...... Let's ask him when he can go back. Dad's debt can't be repaid, and Mom must be anxious in her heart.
But...... Should she tell Lu Jisheng about her current situation at home?
With Lu Jisheng's strength, he can indeed help her settle all the predicaments in front of her, but what about after that? If her father knew that she still had a backer like Lu Jisheng, he would definitely do his best to squeeze out every penny he could get.
She will drag Lu Jisheng into such an abyss.
No, I am already in this quagmire, and I can't drag Lu Jisheng into it anymore.
