Chapter 121 What Is the Truth



Chapter 121 What Is the Truth

Yan Hua can’t believe what she hears.

How dare Yuan Li ask her to admit that she lost the money?

“Mrs. Lu, I didn’t catch what you said. Would you mind repeating it?”

Yuan Li stares at her.

“Mrs. Lang, I said that could you please tell the police that you lost the money.”

Yan Hua looks at her as if she sees a fool, “And then? Shall I report a false case?”

“Don’t worry. I’ll talk to the police. As long as you agree, I’ll solve the rest problem.”

“Mrs. Lu...” Yan Hua takes a deep look at her. “Didn’t you take medicine before you go out today? Do you think that’s possible?”

Yuan Li’s eyes flash across the craziness. She says, “How could it be impossible? I’ve told you that I could settle with the police. You just have to go and tell them that the money is yours.”

Yan Hua looks at her quietly. After a few seconds, she says, “Why?”

Yuan Li obviously has something wrong, Yan Hua thinks. If she continues to refuse, she doesn’t know what will happen. It’s better to hear what Yuan Li will say first.

“My ex-husband is coming back.” Yuan Li looks panicked. “That money is for the child. I... I did want to give them ransom. But I didn’t think they would let my son go if I paid them ransom. I...”

Yan Hua is stunned. Didn’t she say that the child had been lost? Why is kidnapping involved?

“Mrs. Lu, can you make it clear from beginning to end?”

Five years ago, Yuan Li met Lu Youde. This was her chance. At that time, Lu Youde’s wife died not long ago and he had no children. She knew that Lu Youde liked her very much. But she was worried that he would not accept her son.

“You should know that rich family always pays more attention to consanguinity. If he knew I had a son, I would not be Mrs. Lu.” Yuan Li has a faraway look in her eyes. It seems that she sinks in her memory.

“I took my son to get a vaccination. When I took him out to get on the car, I just turned around and he disappeared.” Yuan Li bursts into tears. “I couldn’t find him anywhere. When I got back in the evening, I got a phone call that someone kidnapped my son. He told me that he wouldn’t let my son go unless I gave them three million yuan.”

“I said I didn’t have so much money even if I sold myself. But he said my husband had money. I told him that my husband had died early. But he told me that my husband had made a fortune by doing business with him abroad and my husband wanted to monopolize all the money alone.”

The man knew he had a wife and son at home. So he went back to kidnap the kid to get the money back.

“I realized that he wasn’t dead. The next day I got a call from him. He said he couldn’t come back for the time being. I told him to transfer money to save his son.”

Yuan Li thought he was rich and asked him to come back. But her ex-husband said that was all he had. He became poor after giving her money. He had to earn again.

“I went to the bank and got the money out. It was 600 thousand US dollars!” Yuan Li smiles, “It was the first time in my life to see so much money.”

When Yan Hua hears that, she understands a little. She feels like a stone presses in her heart, “You didn’t give the money to the kidnappers. You didn’t save your only son.”

“I... I just hesitated for a moment. But then... I was trying to save him!” Yuan Li says in a hurry, “He’s the baby that I gave birth to after ten months’ pregnancy. How could I...”

“But you didn’t save him.” Yan Hua looks at her coldly. “You thought if he died, you could marry into a rich family without him and become a rich wife from then on.”

It turns out that she didn’t lose her child. She just allowed her one-year-old baby to be killed.

“You didn’t call the police afterwards. But you monopolized the money alone and married your present husband.” Yan Hua stands up. “Mrs. Lu, today’s coffee goes Dutch. Goodbye. No! Never see you again.”

Yuan Li rushes to catch her. Yan Hua turns away and goes out. But Yuan Li comes up behind her.

“You can’t go! I have told you everything. If you don’t help me, I won’t let you go.” After that, she is about to scratch Yan Hua’s face. But her arm is grabbed by a man immediately.

“Lang... Mr. Lang?” Yuan Li stutters when she sees who the man is.

Lang Ruoxian lets Yan Hua stand behind him, “Mrs. Lu, what do you want to do?”

“I... It’s just a misunderstanding!” Yuan Li calms down and says immediately, “I just want to send Mrs. Lang out.”

She dares not offend Lang Ruoxian. Lu Youde will be angry if he knows that.

Yan Hua finally has a look at Yuan Li and says, “I won’t help you, nor do I have the obligation to help you. Don’t come to me in the future, or I’ll call the police.”

“Mrs. Lang...” Yuan Li’s words are swallowed back under Lang Ruoxian’s eyes.

She can do nothing but watch them to leave. Then she falls into her chair.

Yan Hua sees Lang Ruoxian taking the car’s key from the driver. She looks at him, “Don’t you go to work?”

“There’s nothing to do in the afternoon. I can send you back.”

The car slowly leaves the company, Yan Hua thinks about the whole thing.

“Five years ago, she wanted to remarry, but her one-year-old son blocked her way. At this time, her ex-husband, who she thought he had died, made a lot of money abroad and offended his business partners.”

“The partner went home and kidnapped his son for money. Her ex-husband gave Yuan Li 3 million yuan as ransom for her son. But Yuan Li didn’t give the kidnappers the money. So we can imagine what happened to the child.”

She sides her head, “She wants me to admit the money is mine. Then she will tell her ex-husband that the money was given to the kidnappers, but they didn’t keep their promise and killed the kid.”

Yan Hua looks like she has known everything. Lang Ruoxian looks at her and praises her, “Your analysis is very complete. Probably this is the truth.”

“Probably?”

“I will check what happened at that time to see if there are any traces. Because according to the information from the previous investigation, her sister-in-law said that the child was lost, but she said that the child was in the hands of the kidnappers.”

“Do you think she’s lying?”

“No.” Lang Ruoxian sees her frown. Then he smiles. “Don’t think about it. Wait till I find out.”

When Yuan Li comes home, the nanny is greeting her with her three-year-old son.

“My little baby, are you good today? Did you have a good meal?” She gave birth to a son the second year after she married Lu Youde. Lu Youde is so happy to have a son when he is old. So he likes her so much. In recent years, he doesn’t have any affairs and never touches the girl who is sent to him.

Yuan Li holds her son in her arms with no expression on her face. But she hates Yan Hua in her heart very much and wants her to die. Her request is really an easy thing to do, but Yan Hua still refuses to help her. If the man really comes back and his sister tells him something, he will kill her according to his character.

“Madam? Madam?” The nanny calls her a few times.

Yuan Li regains her composure and asks her, “What’s wrong?”

“A man called you this afternoon and said that he was your old friend abroad.” When the nanny finishes, she sees Yuan Li’s face changing.

“When? What did he say?”

“Wow... Mommy, I’m pain...” The child in her arms is tied up so tightly by her that he can’t help crying.

Yuan Li quickly puts him on the ground, “I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I didn’t mean it.”

After she makes her son not cry again, Yuan Li asks the nanny carefully. But the nanny just says the same words.

Her old friend who is abroad comes back and wants to see her.

“Didn’t he leave any contact information?”

The nanny points to the notebook next to the phone, “Yes, he did. I wrote on it.”

“I see. Take the baby to dinner.” Yuan Li goes upstairs with the piece of paper that has the telephone number on it. She stares at the number for a long time. But she dares not dial it out.

But she dares not delay any more. It will be more troublesome that he calls again at night when Lu Youde is at home. Yuan Li grits her teeth to dial the number. A familiar voice comes after a few beeps on the phone.

“Hello!”

“Li Yi, is that you?”

“It’s me.” The man’s voice doesn’t change a little. But it sounds cold.

Yuan Li closes her eyes and says, “You know it all, right?”

“Where is my son?” Li Yi asks, “My sister said you lost my son.”

“No, no, no! That’s not true!” Yuan Li quickly says, squeezing her throat as if she weeps sadly. “I gave the money to the kidnappers, but they deceived me. They said that they had lost our son on the roadside. I went to look for him, but there was no one nearby. I searched for him for several days...”

“Why didn’t you tell me?” Li Yi questions her, “I said clearly that you should call me after saving my son. Why didn’t you call me?”

Yuan Li cries, “I called you. But I couldn’t get through to you all the time. When I wanted to tell you that I was going to get married, I couldn’t reach you yet. What could I do? I’m also sad to lose my son. I have been blaming myself for all these years.”

“My sister said you got married a couple of days after our son was lost. Do you have time to blame yourself?” Li Yi’s voice sounds obviously angry. After all, Yuan Li had lived with him for several years. She knows that he is angry.

“Li Yi, is it all my fault? If you didn’t go abroad, our son would not have been kidnapped. If you came back then, none of these things would have happened.”

She sobs, “I know what your sister says about me. She always scolds me these years. She said that I deliberately lost my son for wealth, and that I was not fit to be a mother.”

Yuan Li continues to ask him, “But I ask you, if you had come back when I called you back, would these things have happened? Your sister said that I wanted to be rich, didn’t you want to be rich when you stayed abroad? Now what about your wealth?”

There is a moment of silence on the phone, only heavy breathing.

“Well, I’ll investigate it. If what you said is true, I’ll agree to your husband’s cooperation project.”

“What is the cooperation project?” Yuan Li is stunned, but there is a beeping voice on the phone.

He hangs up.

At dinner, Yuan Li pretends to be casual and asks Lu Youde about his company. Lu Youde doesn’t think much about it, and then he talks about several recent projects.

“Returned overseas Chinese?” Yuan Li hears the word.

“His name is Li Yi. I heard that he went abroad few years ago without a penny. But he did well and now is a model for overseas Chinese businessmen.” Lu Youde says to himself, completely ignoring his wife’s face which changes suddenly.

In the Lang Family, Lang Ruoxian also gets Li Yi’s information. He takes it back to Yan Hua.

“Do you think it is possible that the baby is still alive?” Yan Hua just wants to help the innocent baby from beginning to end. Li Yi and Yuan Li are the same kind of people. Neither of them has the right to blame each other.
