Shan Mingxu was also pestered to the point of a headache. With no other choice, he could only agree.
Anyway, it’s just a eting. Once it’s over and I don’t like it, my parents can’t say anything more, right?
With Shan Mingxu’s words, Yin Shihua finally breathed a sigh of relief, however...
The sound of chopsticks falling on the floor followed closely after Shan Mingxu’s voice.
Ming Xu turned to look at the nearby Fu Sheng... his brows slightly furrowing,
"Can’t even hold chopsticks steady?"
Fu Sheng seed a bit uneasy... she thought she could compose herself, but hearing Ming Xu agree to the arranged eting caught her off guard.
How many pairs of eyes were on the table?
Not a single person missed the panic and loss in Fu Sheng’s eyes at that mont.
Probably the only one who didn’t notice was Shan Mingxu.
Yin Shihua was about to say sothing when the sound of a car ca from outside.
"At this ti, who could it be?"
Yin Shihua raised her eyebrows, looking puzzled.
"Maybe it’s Little Aunt. I had sothing to discuss with her and asked her to co to our house tonight."
After saying this, Shan Mingxu stood up and walked outside.
Upon hearing it was Xiao ng, Yin Shihua quickly stood up as well, following behind Shan Mingxu and muttering,
"You have sothing to discuss with Little Aunt, why not just go to her, why make her co all the way to our house?"
Yin Shihua felt Shan Mingxu wasn’t being thorough enough in handling things, criticizing him a bit.
Shan Mingxu sighed, shook his head, and really wanted to remark on how nagging his mother was...
But after thinking about it, he held back.
It turned out to be Su Xiaong, as the driver parked the car to the side, and the Shan Family’s servant went up to greet them.
Seeing Ming Xu and Yin Shihua coming out, Su Xiaong quickly walked over.
Only after entering the door did she regretfully scratch her head,
"Ca in such a rush that I forgot to buy sothing..."
As soon as Su Xiaong finished speaking, Yin Shihua feigned to knock her on her head,
"Coming to see Third Sister, you have to bring sothing? Acting like a stranger?"
Su Xiaong rubbed her own head,
"My bad, my bad."
"This kid Mingxu is so thoughtless, bothering you to co all the way here for sothing, we wouldn’t even know you were here if not for the sound of your car!"
Yin Shihua hurriedly asked,
"Have you eaten dinner? I’ll rush to make a couple of good dishes——"
"Third Sister, no need to trouble yourself, I’ve eaten before coming, it’s who has sothing to discuss with Mingxu."
"Huh?"
Yin Shihua looked at her confused,
"What could you have to discuss with Mingxu?"
"Just a little sothing!"
Su Xiaong quickly laughed it off, exchanged a few pleasantries with the elders after entering the house, and only smiled slightly upon seeing Fu Sheng.
Xiao ng knew that Mingxu had brought back an injured woman who had been cared for at ho the whole ti.
But Xiao ng had never actually spoken to Fu Sheng, she didn’t even know her na was Fu Sheng, otherwise...
"Mom and Dad, you continue eating, I have sothing to attend to with Little Aunt, please don’t disturb us."
After saying this, Shan Mingxu dragged Su Xiaong upstairs and into a room.
Su Xiaong, after sprinting a few steps, was already sweating. Shan Mingxu shut the door and took a drink from the mini-fridge for Su Xiaong.
"Little Aunt, just wait a mont."
With that, he took a brown paper bag from the military backpack by the window.
Sitting in a chair, Su Xiaong watched as Shan Mingxu retrieved sothing from the bag and then sat on the bed’s edge. He took out a voice recorder from the paper bag and handed it to her,
"This is the complete recording from the black box, this is a backup, the black box has already been stored in the bank’s safe."
"..."
"In the future, if Uncle returns safely, the black box will be the strongest evidence to clear his na and accuse Wu Rong of framing him for murder."
"..."
Su Xiaong’s eyes lit up. She wasn’t foolish; she had already grasped the main point of Shan Mingxu’s words.
When pressing the play button on the recorder, Xiao ng instinctively held her breath.
The air seed to stagnate, the room was extrely quiet, and the gentle sound of static slowly began to erge...
The recording lasted for a total of sixteen minutes and thirty-two seconds...
Su Xiaong listened with her heart nearly stopped...
The weakness in her husband’s voice... made her worried, and heartbroken.
"This man nad Wu Yao, I’ve looked into him. He’s Wu Rong’s younger brother, two years younger than Wu Rong."
"Wu Rong’s younger brother...?"
Su Xiaong was surprised. Previously, when she suspected that Wu Rong might be the murderer of her husband, she had also sent soone to investigate Wu Rong, but it was never ntioned that he had a brother.
"Like Wu Rong, this man graduated from the police academy with excellent grades and entered the public security bureau to work."
"Wu Yao, like Uncle Bai, ca from a criminal investigation background."
"How did this Wu Yao know about Wu Rong’s layout and this yacht?"
Su Xiaong asked.
In the recording, the conversation between Yin Shixiu and Wu Yao wasn’t much, only the dialogues inside the yacht’s cockpit were recorded, and mostly were conflicts between the two.
Wu Yao explained Wu Rong’s plan, but Yin Shixiu didn’t believe it.
Especially after Wu Yao revealed his identity, Yin Shixiu was even more surprised in his words.
Wu Yao was trying to buy ti, but Yin Shixiu at that mont didn’t dare to easily trust Wu Yao.
Among their conversations, probably the most valuable part was Wu Yao’s statent,
"Only if you die will he let his guard down, and only then we have a chance to counterattack."
Only if Yin Shixiu died, Wu Rong would drop his guard, and they would have a chance to counterattack..."they" ant Yin Shixiu and Wu Yao?
After that, Yin Shixiu followed Wu Yao out of the cockpit, as Wu Yao was taking Yin Shixiu to see the remotely controlled bomb equipped on the yacht.
Later, Yin Shixiu and Wu Yao returned to the cockpit and drove the yacht towards the center of the sea, both wearing life jackets before jumping into the sea.
"Shixiu was shot... they just jumped into the sea! A yacht exploded not far away! Was this saving him?"
Su Xiaong opened her eyes wide in shock, full of disbelief.
Shan Mingxu pursed his lips, "That’s why I said if Uncle can co back safely..."
Su Xiaong didn’t expect that the contents recorded by the yacht’s black box would make her feel more anxious.
"Little Aunt, I said before, don’t think too optimistically... Uncle’s injuries are severe, but..."
Su Xiaong clutched her chest.
How could she dare to think too optimistically?
However, she still hoped, hoped that heaven could show more favor to her husband, even for the sake of their two children...
Such severe injuries...
Even if not blasted to death by the yacht, still...
"At least we indeed did not find Uncle’s body."
Shan Mingxu said to Su Xiaong.
"That’s the hope, I believe Uncle is not dead, maybe gravely injured, but definitely not dead."
"..."
Su Xiaong looked up.
"Think, this Wu Yao ca to help Uncle, and this yacht had a manually controlled bomb. He risked being blown up to save Uncle."
"...Yes."
Su Xiaong quickly nodded.
"So, there’s no need to doubt Wu Yao’s stance for now. If Wu Yao was helping Uncle, and he said only if Uncle died would Wu Rong relax his guard, right?"
"Yes, he did say that!"
"In fact, he ant to fake Uncle’s death, letting Wu Rong wrongly believe Uncle was already dead, hence the severed arm with the wedding ring, sothing Wu Yao had prepared long before."
Su Xiaong continued to nod.
"If Uncle was indeed dead and the ruse failed, do you think... standing from the perspective of soone trying to help Uncle, would he not let Uncle’s body appear?"
"... No, he wouldn’t."
"He had no reason to hide the body."
Su Xiaong swallowed, Shan Mingxu’s analysis... was not wrong.
"Little Aunt, I dare to assert, Uncle is not dead!"
"..."
Tears welled in Su Xiaong’s eyes...
She had been waiting for such a statent for so long...
"Right, he’s not dead, we just need to find Wu Yao, and ask him, then we can know where your Uncle is! It doesn’t matter if he’s injured, injuries can be treated, Ming——"
"Little Aunt. But there’s one more problem..."
"Hmm? What is it?"
Su Xiaong’s eyes sparkled with hope as she looked at Shan Mingxu, only to see Shan Mingxu’s gaze turn cold...
"Wu Yao died fifteen years ago."
"..."
