Chapter 75: It's Enough to Go to Jail
Suddenly being questioned, Shen Jingxiu paused slightly in his actions and said, "Dad, why don't we talk after we finish eating?"
Since they had already decided to confess, a few more minutes wouldn't matter.
But Shen Yuan hadn't seen through Wen Yan's true thoughts; it didn't mean that he still had the mood to continue eating.
"These past few days, both of you have been coming home every day, which is unusual. Come to my study."
After Shen Yuan finished speaking, he pushed his chair and left the dining room.
Shen Jingxiu couldn't refuse his father, so he followed his footsteps.
In the dining room, the sound of chairs being dragged echoed one after another. Su Yang finally came back to her senses and hastily followed the father and son's steps.
At that moment, only Wen Yan and Shen Jinghe were left at the large dining table.
Wen Yan put down her chopsticks and looked at Shen Jinghe, saying, "Second Brother, do you think Mom will be very sad and upset when she knows the truth?"
"What do you think?"
"Then should we think of a solution in advance, like taking Mom out for a trip to relax? I also want to know if you still have work to do."
Shen Jinghe was about to answer Wen Yan's question when his phone suddenly vibrated repeatedly in his pocket.
He didn't have time to respond and immediately checked his phone.
As he looked at it, his brows furrowed.
Seeing him like this, Wen Yan couldn't help but ask, "What happened? Who sent you a message? Could it be Big Brother? Is something wrong?"
"How is that possible? Do you remember Chai Zhaodi?"
"Of course I remember. What happened? Could something have happened to her? I recently contacted the journalist who helped us expose the information on the internet. He said he had been doing follow-up reports and mentioned that Chai Zhaodi was doing well after being reunited with her loved ones. The local internet users had also provided assistance."
"It just so happens that the person who messaged me was that journalist. The people in the studio weren't sure about what to do, so they sent me the message."
"Is it related to Chai Zhaodi?"
"See for yourself; I can't explain in just a couple of words."
Skillfully, Wen Yan took the phone from Shen Jinghe's hand.
After taking a look, she realized that the journalist hadn't given up on following up on Chai Zhaodi's case since her return.
He believed that Chai Zhaodi's incident was definitely not a coincidence, nor was it the only one. So, he went to Chai Zhaodi's hometown.
During his investigation, he actually found some clues. However, he didn't know what happened; after the last time, his account seemed to have been suppressed, and his plan to create a buzz through public opinion failed.
Therefore, he shamelessly contacted Shen Jinghe's studio, seeking help.
After quickly reading it, Wen Yan handed the phone back to Shen Jinghe.
"What do you plan to do now? Do you want to help him?"
"I'll help," Shen Jinghe frowned. "Even if it's to accumulate merit, I hope Zhirou can really come back to this family. Besides, when we found this journalist, we initially hired him to release the information for a fee, but after we learned the ins and outs of Chai Zhaodi's incident, he returned the money to us. It was considered helping us without any gain. In my opinion, I should repay him."
Wen Yan nodded. "I also hope Zhirou can come back and reunite with the family as soon as possible."
Just as they were talking, Zhang Sao hurriedly walked towards them.
"The sir wants you both to go to the study immediately! Now!"
The two glanced at each other and quickened their pace.
Soon, everyone in the family gathered in Shen Yuan's study.
His eyes were red.
And Su Yang, it was clear she had been sobbing.
Wen Yan couldn't bear to see a girl cry, especially an elder. She immediately walked to Su Yang's side and gently held her.
Su Yang held back her tears and tightly embraced Wen Yan.
She trembled as she spoke, "My good child, you have suffered so much in these four years. Mom didn't know that you suffered so much under that fake person's hand. Dad and I were wrong, we should not have doubted you before. If we had believed you, maybe we would have discovered it earlier, and you wouldn't have had to suffer like this."
"Mom, don't blame yourself. The past is in the past, and those wicked and malicious people are the ones who did wrong. You and Dad did nothing wrong."
Su Yang choked up, wanting to say something more, but couldn't find her voice.
She was afraid that if she opened her mouth, she wouldn't be able to hold back her tears.
In this atmosphere, Wen Yan felt her eyes welling up with tears, quickly took out a few tissues, and handed them to Su Yang.
Seeing that they had finished talking on their side, Shen Yuan finally spoke to Wen Yan.
"Yan Yan, Dad has a few questions for you, can you answer them truthfully?"
"Yes."
"When this fake Shen Zhirou was provoking you or competing with you, did she ever let slip any details, like mentioning her biological parents or her original family?"
Wen Yan carefully thought about it and shook her head.
"Sorry, Dad, I really can't remember the details of the conversation we had a few years ago. But she should have been very cautious and didn't mention it, otherwise I wouldn't have started questioning this only this year.
"But I think her purpose in competing with me was very clear. She wanted to drive me out of this family. Before, I thought she was afraid that I would take away your love and replace her position, so she did all this.
"But now it seems that she herself is a carefully crafted counterfeit, and her purpose must be very strong, definitely for the Shen family's wealth."
"Right," Shen Yuan's voice was cold, "When she came back that year, to thank her adoptive parents, I gave them a large sum of money. Later, I heard that their factory had some problems, and I helped them resolve it.
"But now I know, the disappearance of a group of women in the mountains back then was related to her adoptive mother and her adoptive mother's clothing factory. Their factory had problems back then, and it's very likely that they whitewashed it through me!"
Speaking up to here, Shen Yuan clenched his fists, the veins on the back of his hands bulging.
He hated it! He hated himself for not investigating clearly! He was actually deceived by such people, and even helped them!
After Shen Yuan finished speaking, the atmosphere in the study became extremely heavy, and no one spoke for a while.
After a moment, Shen Jingxiu was the first to break the silence.
"The disappearance of those women can't be traced, because no one ever reported a case. It's been six or seven years now, and they don't have any living relatives, I'm afraid no one remembers them. Dad, the first thing we need to do is to control these few people, we can't let any of them escape."
"Okay." Shen Yuan narrowed his eyes, exuding a calm determination.
"Their behavior constitutes fraud. The money they took from me is enough for them to be imprisoned. I will find the best lawyer in this field, I want them to face the harshest punishment.”
