After I died, I became the white moonlight of the crazy villain.
Chapter 67 Bian Jiahui was sponsored by my father.
Ge Zeyu and I are both juniors. My dad seemed to feel ashamed and waved his hand, telling me to reflect on my actions when I got back.
As we left the office, Ge Zeyu called over Assistant Ma and asked him to fetch the first-aid kit so he could give my leg wound some basic treatment.
I felt really choked up. On the way back, I told Ge Zeyu what Song Chenhao had told me last time, including the doubts I had been harboring lately.
"Do you think Bian Jiahui could really be my father's illegitimate daughter?"
I was a little worried. If this were true, my mom would be the first one to be unable to accept it.
She and my dad have been loving and affectionate for so many years, and she has always felt that her marriage is perfect and happy. If something like this suddenly happens, I'm afraid she won't be able to handle it.
Ge Zeyu frowned slightly, turned to me and slowly said, "Instead of worrying, we should investigate thoroughly. The people at the hospital said that Bian Jiahui was sent there by her mother, but I don't think that's necessarily true."
"Some things require financial resources, or they require extensive connections. Li Yaqin doesn't seem to fit either of these criteria."
His words made me realize immediately that instead of hesitating and guessing here, it would be better to find out the truth.
But if my dad really was behind this, even with my connections, it would be very difficult for me to reach people at his level.
“I asked a nurse at the hospital to keep an eye on Bian Jiahui and tell me if anything happens. I couldn’t think of a better way.”
Ge Zeyu propped his head up with one hand and reminded me, "We big shots can't really get in touch with them, but the escorts and many other things need to be done by the people below. All they need is enough money."
I immediately took Ge Zeyu to the hospital and went directly to the hospital director. After explaining our purpose, the director initially refused.
I kept raising the price until I took out my bank card and assured him that I would never reveal the information I got from him. He was the one who said it. I just wanted to know who was escorting Bian Jiahui here.
The hospital director gave me a number and an address, telling me that the person on the other end was the warden of the detention center.
I found Director Liu at the address. As soon as I opened the door, he identified me, "Miss Jiang, what brings you here?"
I asked him, somewhat surprised, if he knew me. He chuckled softly and said he didn't know me, but he did know my dad.
He invited the two of us into the house, his gaze unconsciously sweeping over Ge Zeyu, his attitude remaining extremely warm throughout.
His smile faded a little when I asked why Bian Jiahui had suddenly been sent to a mental hospital.
“Miss Jiang, these are all instructions from above. I’m just doing what they say. I don’t know anything else.”
I didn't believe a single word he said. After all, he was a minor leader, and these things had passed through his hands, so he should know more or less about them.
How could he not know anything at all, unless he didn't want to tell him?
On the way here, I made a simple inquiry. This Director Liu's name is Liu Qiang. He was originally just a staff member of the detention center. The reason he was able to become the director is said to be because he has a younger sister who found a good husband. He was able to get the position of director through his connections.
Although he has been promoted, his foundation is relatively weak, and there are many people eyeing him covetously. There are also some of his older subordinates who often refuse to submit to his authority.
He also had few opportunities to curry favor with his superiors, mainly because he didn't have the money to give gifts.
Thinking of this, I tentatively said, "Director Liu, helping people out only earns you an impression, but revealing certain information can bring you real benefits."
To reassure him, I made it clear that I only wanted to find out what really happened and would never drag innocent people into this mess.
"Miss Jiang is joking. Mr. Jiang bailed him out, so why are you here asking for information?" He looked suspicious.
When I heard those words, it felt like a bolt from the blue. My mind was buzzing, and my temples were throbbing.
"You mean my dad arranged for someone to bail him out?" After I asked, he looked like he had just realized something.
He leaned back on the sofa and lit a cigarette. "I thought Miss Jiang knew, but I didn't expect you didn't?"
I immediately expressed my desire to know the inside story and asked him to name his price.
He hesitated for a while, then stubbed out his cigarette, glanced at Ge Zeyu again, and finally said, "Five hundred thousand! I guarantee you'll get your money's worth."
This sum of 500,000 is not a small amount, but fortunately my mother usually spoils me and often finds ways to subsidize me, so I can still come up with this money.
"Deal!" I nodded, took out my phone to transfer the money, and the other party's phone emitted a notification sound.
He glanced at the numbers on the screen and said with a smile, "I'm not entirely sure of the specific reasons, but Mr. Jiang gave up two percent of their company's shares to get the person out of there."
Two percent of the company shares! These words sent a chill down my spine. My father paid such a high price to save Bian Jiahui; I simply couldn't believe that the two of them were completely unrelated.
Is it really worth my dad going to such lengths to repay a life-saving debt?
This made my doubts grow even stronger.
When I left Director Liu's house, I was still a little dazed. Ge Zeyu followed behind me and accompanied me for a long time until I got tired.
He walked over and said to me, "I'll take you home first, and we can investigate this matter further later."
I nodded, and the car pulled up in front of my house. In the distance, I saw a figure get out of the taxi and head towards my house.
When I saw it was Li Yaqin, I panicked and quickly got out of the car to block her way, looking at her warily. "What are you doing here?"
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Li Yaqin's face, but she quickly regained her composure. "I've come to see you, Madam. I hope you can forgive my daughter. She spends all her time in the mental hospital, and it breaks my heart as her mother."
Her seemingly loving motherly demeanor made me scoff. "You care about your daughter, and my mother naturally cares about me too. Do you think she'll forgive you?"
Li Yaqin's expression paused for a moment, then quickly returned to normal. She stared at me intently, then said meaningfully, "There are some things I've been holding back for a long time. I'd like to take this opportunity to have a good talk with you, Madam, about you and my daughter."
