Chapter 343 Godmother
After listening to what Zhao Cai'e said, Ah San blurted out, "He left the money to Jack?" Then he put his hand on Du Heng's shoulder and shouted, "Isn't that right?"
Du Heng just sneered slightly, seeming a little unfathomable.
Zhao Cai'e answered for him at this time. She said flatly, "No! I only recently learned about the affairs between Jack and the 17 households. I didn't expect that the wolf would appear when stalking the rabbits. However, Du Heng and Jack are just using each other. It's not to the point of trusting each other with life and death."
Many people nodded. Du Heng did not collude with Jack from the beginning. He just met Jack after escaping to the United States and temporarily decided to team up with the other party in order to let Jack help him catch Zhang Nianzu. Although the two men cooperated, they were more scheming against each other. It was unacceptable for Du Heng to give all the money to Jack before his death.
Ah San scratched his head and asked, "Who did he leave the money to?"
Zhao Cai'e glanced at Lao Guo and said, "This has to start with what I have done over the years." She pointed at her face and asked Du Heng, "Have you really never seen this face of mine?"
Du Heng looked at her again in confusion and still shook his head.
Zhao Cai'e said: "After Zhang Baifeng died, I spent five years completely erasing all traces of my existence in this world, making people believe that I was indeed dead, and by the way, I changed my face."
Du Heng said coldly: "You are too self-indulgent. Once Zhang Baifeng dies, who cares whether you live or die? Can you do anything to me?"
Zhao Cai'e said, "It's always better to be careful." At this point she suddenly changed the subject and asked in a normal chat tone between friends, "Who did you have the best relationship with back then?"
Du Heng said, "Besides Da...besides Zhang Baifeng, there's Liu Yuejin. We're together every day, doing the same work. Zhang Baifeng jokingly calls us 'Du Da Ming Ming' and 'Liu Da Cong Ming'. Why are you asking this?"
Zhao Cai'e asked, "Who is smarter, you or Liu Yuejin?"
Du Heng said: "I am more accurate in judging domestic and international situations, while Liu Yuejin is more obsessed with details. He can handle hundreds of millions of dollars without missing a penny. I can spend money, but he can manage money. It's hard to say who is smarter."
Although the two sides were in a hostile relationship, everyone couldn't help but curl up their lips when they heard their conversation. These few words showed that they had a close relationship with each other. At that time, everyone was full of vigor and vitality and spent their youthful years together. There are countless details to recall.
Zhao Cai'e clapped her hands and said, "Right! Liu Yuejin pays more attention to details. At that time, you were in love with a girl from another place, and you didn't tell anyone, but Liu Yuejin noticed it."
Du Heng's face changed drastically despite hearing such an ordinary sentence.
Zhao Cai'e said softly, "She's a girl from Guangdong, right? Liu Yuejin said that you went to Beijing and Shanghai on business trips several times, but all you brought back in your bag were bacon, ginger milk and the like."
Du Heng forced a smile and said, "Everyone has done something foolish when they were young. It was just a fleeting romance."
Zhao Cai'e said, "Actually, there's nothing wrong with saying this, but since you didn't ask, we tacitly agreed not to ask. Liu Yuejin wanted to play a joke on you one day, but he didn't expect that this joke would take 20 years to come, and he never got to do it until he died."
"You..." Du Heng's eyes suddenly became fearful.
Zhao Cai'e nodded and said, "I didn't finish what I said just now. During those five years, I changed my face and found this girl."
Unexpectedly, Du Heng pounced on Zhao Cai'e and put his hands around her neck. Li Changgui sensed something was wrong and knocked him to the ground with his elbow. Du Heng's eyes were bloodshot and he roared at Zhao Cai'e, "Did you kill Chen Shuyi?"
Everyone was surprised and asked, "Dead?"
Zhang Nianzu was also shocked. Although he could tell something was fishy in her words, he never expected his mother to kill someone with her own hands. He couldn't help but say, "Mom..."
Zhao Cai'e was unmoved and smiled, "You admit it, right? Your name is Chen Shuyi, right? It seems I didn't find the wrong person."
Du Heng bared his teeth and said, "Zhao Cai'e, you are so cruel!"
Zhao Cai'e was stunned and said, "I am cruel? The money you took away affected the livelihoods of thousands of people, and only one person, Chen Shuyi, died. How could I be cruel?"
Du Heng shouted: "But it has nothing to do with her, she is innocent!"
Zhao Cai'e also shouted: "Go ask those more than a thousand tribesmen if they are innocent!"
Yang Jie, Zhao Qing, Lei Tingting, Liu Laoliu, the Liu brothers, Wei Biao and all the strongmen were all shocked and speechless. In just a few minutes, they heard that there were more than one or two people who had died. The good and evil in the human nature of those who had touched the money were forced out of their bodies and displayed vividly. The huge amount of money that Du Heng embezzled came with all these good and evil, conspiracy, chaos, and intrigues. It seemed that it was unclear whether Chen Shuyi was innocent. Was she a participant? A bystander? Or was she just innocent and caught in the crossfire?
Zhang Nianzu felt mixed emotions. In his memory, his father was a mediocre man, and his mother was as ordinary as all housewives. She had to be frugal when going to the vegetable market, and felt heartbroken for a light that she forgot to turn off. If these were disguises, then her murder was beyond his imagination.
At this time, Lao Guo jumped forward with both feet like hopscotch and said casually: "Don't make a fuss. Who knows how Chen Shuyi died? Maybe it was just an ordinary car accident? And what's the benefit of killing her? Can the money be returned?"
Everyone thought that was right. Zhao Cai'e was so patient in order to get back the public funds. If she killed people just to vent her anger, that would be too childish.
Zhao Cai'e laughed and said, "There are actually smart people. That's right, the matter is not over yet." She glanced at Du Heng and said, "Are you pretending to be distressed?"
Du Heng was at a loss.
Zhao Cai'e said word by word: "You are not concerned about Chen Shuyi, but Chen Lingyan!"
Everyone wondered: "Who is Chen Lingyan?"
Zhao Cai'e explained at the right time: "Chen Lingyan is the daughter of Du Heng and Chen Shuyi. She is just 20 years old this year. Well, when you fled to the United States, Chen Lingyan was still in her mother's belly. You were afraid that your clan would seek revenge on them, so you kept the pregnant Chen Shuyi at home. Even after Chen Lingyan was born, she didn't have your surname. After she was weaned, you forced her mother to cut off contact with her, just in case she was exposed one day, and Chen Shuyi would be sacrificed and used as a fire retardant. As long as your daughter is fine, you don't care about Chen Shuyi's life or death, am I right?"
Du Heng's eyes changed. If the anger just now was all pretended, then his expression at this moment could only be described as fear. He asked weakly, "How did you find my daughter?"
Zhao Cai'e said, "You ignore the nature of women. How can a mother resist going to see her daughter when she is in the same city as her daughter?"
Du Heng gritted his teeth and said, "Stupid woman!" He raised his bloodshot eyes and asked, "What did you do to my daughter?"
At this time, Zhao Cai'e's phone suddenly sent a video invitation. Her ringtone was very high, and she seemed very noisy. Zhao Cai'e glanced at the screen, suddenly grabbed her hands in the air, and said as if announcing something important: "Don't talk, I want to chat with my goddaughter." She clicked on the video and said affectionately, "Lingyan, why do you want to harass your godmother at this time?"
Hearing Lingyan's name and hearing her gentle voice, everyone was shocked. It was obvious that the person on the phone was the enemy's daughter, but people only felt pity for her. At the same time, they also felt sorry for Du Heng. Why did he mess with such a woman...
Chen Lingyan said coquettishly: "I'm bored, where are you, godmother?"
Du Heng subconsciously wanted to shout, but Zhao Cai'e kept her smile on the video and made a threatening gesture with her hand outside the screen. Du Heng immediately shut up.
"I'm at my hometown. Let me show you my hometown." Zhao Cai'e pointed the camera at the crops in the distance.
Chen Lingyan said "Wow" politely, saying that she was very beautiful, and immediately said, "Come back soon and go shopping for clothes with me."
Zhao Cai'e smiled and said, "Okay, Godmother will take care of the family affairs and then go to accompany you!"
Asasin quietly touched Lei Tingting and whispered, "I'll give Zhang Nianzu to you. I don't want a mother-in-law like this."
Zhao Cai'e and Chen Lingyan chatted for a while before hanging up the phone. Zhao Cai'e said calmly, "The person who just video chatted with me is the beneficiary of Du Heng's will. In two years, she will use the money of the Strongman Clan to become the richest person in the world!"
Lei Yuanzheng widened his eyes and said, "Boss Du..."
Du Heng said in a deep voice: "Why, do you feel you have been cheated? I never said I would leave the money to you."
Lei Yuanzheng said like a wronged child: "I didn't want your money, but you have a daughter and I didn't even know about it!"
Du Heng was stunned and whispered, "Originally, I was going to tell you if we could pass this level."
Zhao Cai'e said decisively: "Don't say such nonsense. You didn't tell him because you were afraid that he would kill your daughter out of jealousy." She sighed and said, "In front of such a large sum of money, everyone becomes neither human nor ghost."
Everyone: “…”
