Chapter 63
When he left the house the next day, Shen Ron’s eyes fell unconsciously on the white Audi as he walked into the garage.
Cheng Lydia didn’t drive the car away, it just sits quietly in the garage these days, remembering how delighted and touched Cheng Lydia was when she bought it for her, so genuine and real.
Was it all just an act? Was it to make him believe her?
Next to the white Audi was the red Ferrari that was supposed to be sent to the garage for long-term maintenance.
Two cars, two women, his robbery in this life.
He walked over to the Bentley, pulled open the door and got in, skillfully backing up, turning and driving the car out of The Shen Family mansion.
Shen Ron arrived at the office and lifted the intercom to dial Assistant Peng’s number.
Soon Assistant Peng came in and stood respectfully before him waiting to be dispatched.
“How’s the investigation I asked you to do going?”
“The Japanese side just provided an important lead, the poison was bought from a man named Fukada Muyo, and it was a face-to-face transaction, but the buyer is unknown, only that it was a Chinese man.” Assistant Peng paused and added, “But I think the message came too easily to be very reliable, and the other side also provided a video of the parking lot.”
“Maybe rely on it?” Shen Ron smiled blandly, “Send me the video to look at it.”
Fukada No Amnesty, on the other hand, is a familiar figure.
He is a prominent figure in the Japanese yakuza, who has been making a name for himself in recent years.
He didn’t find the message to be uncomfortable, rather he found it quite easy, and who else but Gu William would it be?
Only he doesn’t understand whether Gu William is doing this to cover up Cheng Lydia’s crimes or to prove that she is truly innocent.
The video was indeed extracted from the parking lot, where a young man wearing a duck-top hat and sunglasses on his face got out of a car and got into the same car at the same time as the man named Fukada No Amnesty.
Fukuda Muyo is as high-profile and sightless as ever.
Although the information emphasized that the two men were dealing with a poison that could cause the slow failure of human organs. But this video does not mean anything, not even direct proof that the two men were dealing with a drug of combustible nature, and even if they were dealing with a drug, it does not prove that it was intended for Yang June, so it is no wonder that Assistant Peng denied its authenticity without even bringing it to him.
But even so Shen Ron paid careful attention to every detail in it, the characters’ first traits.
He fixed the image on the Chinese man and then pulled up the video extracted from inside the computer that night in the parking lot below the Western restaurant.
Shen Ron’s eyebrows twitched, since he noticed that the two men were similar in size and height.
Could it be the same person?
Shen Ron lifted the intercom on his desk and dialed the number for the technical department and asked the head of the technical department to come to his office immediately.
After the technician processed it in HD, the picture was much clearer, and Shen Ron couldn’t find more common points after several comparisons. He was about to turn off the video when his eyes inadvertently landed on the back of the man’s left hand and noticed a burn mark on the back of his left hand, and he immediately switched to another video.
What surprised him was that the man on the other video also had a faint light-colored mark on the back of his left hand, and although it was blurry to see and he couldn’t be sure if it was a burn, such a coincidence was really suspicious.
“CEO Shen, why don’t you directly contact the people over at Fukuda No Amnesty to ask about the situation?” Assistant Peng Tiyi said.
Shen Ron gave him a look askance, leaving him to deal with Fukuda?
He had always been uncomfortable with people who went around doing all sorts of harmful things in the name of the gang, and naturally, he would not lower his status to associate with them too much.
So he just knew Fukada as a person, but had no deep friendship.
One thing Gu William says is true, and that is that his Master Gu is doing better than him in Japan!
“No need.” He said.
“Doesn’t CEO Shen want to know the truth?” Assistant Peng asked suspiciously.
“Don’t want to know now.” He turned off the video and raised his eyes to stare at Assistant Peng, “Go do your thing, this is over.”
Assistant Peng was full of confusion, but he didn’t dare to ask anything more and turned around and walked out.
Cheng Lydia thought that Old Lady Shen would not call again, but she did today.
When Mrs. Shen called, she was at home on vacation with Chung Grace, lying in bed doing a face mask.
She had to put it on speakerphone because it was not convenient to listen to the call.
The old lady’s voice came apologetically long: “That … Lydia ah, if the mood is better, come home. I think it’s better to come back ah, the home is well fed and well housed, there is still someone to serve, it’s better than being outside by yourself ah.”
Cheng Lydia craned her head and locked eyes with Chung Grace, who shook her hand at her and whispered, “Determined not to return.”
Cheng Lydia smiled as lightly as she could, “Don’t worry, Grandma, I’m eating and staying well at my friend’s place too.”
“It seems like you don’t want to come back at all.” The old lady sighed impatiently and said bitterly, “Don’t be too angry, it’s normal for a young couple to live together and quarrel, just forget about it. Besides, you can’t blame Ron for this, after all, all the evidence points to you, and Ron can’t let go of Ms. Yang, just forgive him, okay?”
Cheng Lydia opened her mouth, but didn’t know whether to say yes or no.
The old lady had already lowered her attitude to this point, so if she didn’t go back, wouldn’t it seem a bit too cold? Besides, she still had a contract with The Shen Family.
“Just come back today, okay? I’ll have the driver pick you up.”
“Grandma, I’ll think about it.” Cheng Lydia swept a glance at Chung Grace, who continued to wave her hand beside her, and finally gave the old woman this.
The old lady didn’t give her much trouble, and hung up after a few words of advice.
When Cheng Lydia hung up the phone, Chung Grace immediately said, “Back now? Are you kidding me? I have to stay here for at least another month before I’m allowed to go back.”
“This isn’t going to work out, what should we do?” Cheng Lydia sat up from the bed, removed the mask from her face, looked at Chung Grace and said, “Grace, I’d better go back.”
“No, you have to be invited back by Shen Ron himself, it’s a matter of principle.”
“Waiting for him to pick it up? Don’t be naive, he ba not to go back with me in this life.”
“So what are you going back for? Look at his face for a living?”
“Who made me owe it to their family?”
Chung Grace followed and sat up from the bed with a look of no good, “Our women’s self-respect is disgraced by weak women like you, really …”
“Come on you, if this were to happen to you and Gu William, you probably wouldn’t even wait a day to run back.”
“Gu William and I aren’t as complicated as you guys.” Chung Grace handed her a hot towel and thought for a moment, “How about this, let’s do a test and decide if we want to go back.”
“What test?”
“I’ll send Shen Ron a message telling him you were in a car accident, if he’ll call over to check on you or rush to the hospital right away, that means he still cares about you a little and you’ll go back with him, if he ignores you and doesn’t care about you, then don’t go back, it’s insulting to go back.”
Cheng Lydia was dismissive: “He’ll take it as a scam message.”
“Is it a scam, wouldn’t he just call and ask, even if it’s a scam call, it’s not a good thing to get your number for a scam. If he cares about you, surely his first reaction is to dial your number and figure out the situation, if he loves you, then surely he doesn’t even want to waste time to dial the phone and pull his leg and head for the hospital.”
“Why do I have a bad feeling about this.”
“Because you don’t have faith in him.”This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“Better not try …” Cheng Lydia just said the first half of the sentence, Chung Grace already picked up her phone and started to look up the address book, it was Cheng Lydia’s new phone, there were only a few numbers saved, so Chung Grace quickly found Shen Ron’s number and started to enter the information.
Cheng Lydia did not continue to stop it.
Subconsciously, she also wanted to see Shen Ron’s reaction, but she was more afraid of not being able to wait for anything.
“Okay.” Chung Grace shoved the phone into her hand.
Cheng Lydia took the call and began to stare at the phone screen moo with dead eyes, expecting it to light up again.
