Chapter 37: Car Accident (Part 2)

  “Huanli……” Chulin Tao gazed at the screen where a little girl was intently playing the piano, muttering to himself, “Lin, look at her, how much she resembles you. Originally, I could have watched over her as she grew up bit by bit, just like I did with you back then. I would have isolated her from the entire world, letting her live only in my palm, within the golden cage specially crafted for her. No boy would be able to get close to her, no boy would be able to obtain her, no boy would be able to defile her!

  Suddenly, Chu Lin Tao's face was filled with anger. "However, that stupid Gu Wenjuan actually quarreled with me over some trivial matters and even carelessly let Huan Li hear those things. It's all over, the castle I built for her, the future I designed for her, all destroyed."

  "Just because you felt that the perfect illusion was destroyed, so you secretly instructed someone to kidnap her?" Ling Dan asked, his voice a stark contrast to the gentle tone he had used earlier.

  "Exactly!" Chu Lin Tao sneered with a smile, his hands forcefully prying open Ling's legs, entering fiercely and then frantically thrusting, "But now I don't care. Lin, as long as I have you, we can give birth to countless daughters, each one as beautiful, lovely, and innocent as you."

  "Really?" Zero heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, she casually stretched out her hand and pressed a certain place behind her back, then lazily hugged Chu Lintao and coquettishly hummed.

  "Chu Lintao, you really are with this cheap woman..." Gu Wenjuan suddenly pushed open the door and stormed to Chu Lintao's front, but was shocked to find that the woman under her husband was not Shen Yanran.

  "What? Want to go back?" Chu Lintao retreated from Ling's body, his eyes even more deeply crazed. He reached out and grabbed Gu Wenjuan's hair, flinging her to the ground. Then, with a ferocious smile, he stood before her, uttering only one word that made Gu Wenjuan tremble violently and curse loudly.

  "Let me tell you, it's your honor that I married you, don't pretend to be a saint here. From today on, get back home and be Mrs. Chu. And, Yanran is pregnant, take good care of her. As for Lianyou, she's also a young lady from a good family, did you teach her well as her mother? She behaves like a shrew, it's disgusting just looking at her."

  "Dad, you say I'm a shrew? And you want mom to accept that bad woman?! Chu Lianyou stood at the door of the basement, despairingly looking at her parents who had already become strangers in the house. "I hate you, I detest you, I'd rather not have you as my father."

  "Fine," Chu Lin Tao sneered, "then return to me all that belongs to me - my bones, my blood."

  "You bastard!" Gu Wenjuan stood up and slapped Chu Lintao hard, roaring, "The one who should get out is you. Don't forget, this house was my dowry, the one who has no right to live here is you. Get out! Get out! And you, don't know where you came from, cheap woman, get out, all of you get out!"

  "Why should I leave? This is my home." Chu Lintao spat a mouthful of saliva, and sneered, "Gu Wenjuan, don't think that just because you have the surname Gu, you're someone important. To Gu Hanqing, you're nothing but a pawn in his hands."

  "What's the big deal?" Gu Wenjuan stretched out her arms to hug the crying Chu Lianyou, saying word by word, "Chu Lintao, wait for the lawyer's letter. Even if we go to court, I'm not afraid, because I believe that the one who will end up with nothing is you."

  "I lose? Don't make me laugh." Chu Lintao's face twisted in rage, "The Chu family is mine, I will never let you take away a single penny. As for alimony, humph, does the young mistress of the Gu family need to make such a big fuss over that little bit of money?"

  "Don't worry, the one whose reputation is ruined is absolutely not me." Gu Wenjuan hugged her daughter and walked to the basement door, her voice cold as ice. "Take your woman and get out. If you're still in this house half an hour later, don't blame me for not showing mercy and throwing you out directly."

  "Want to go? No way!" Chu Lin Tao said, and directly chased out. Just as he ran to the door, he suddenly felt his body lightened, and when he came back to himself, he had already been slammed to the ground.

  She stepped lightly on Chu Lin Tao's body, playing with a few small video tapes in her hand. She flirted and tossed her hair, laughing, "Intentional injury, adultery, plus corruption and intentional murder, Mr. Chu, I'm not interested in taking this business from you. So, he asked me to tell you that the days in prison are very long, and bail for medical treatment will never happen to you."

  "You... are you a night person?" Chu Lintao's drunkenness gradually dissipated, his eyes staring blankly at Ling as he asked, "What did you get me to drink?"

  "A little something to liven things up." With a slight twist of her wrist, after hearing Chu Lin Tao's pained cry, a gentle smile bloomed on her lips, "Isn't Mr. Chu having a great time?"

  "Is the price I paid still not enough? Why, why does the night refuse me?"

  "Doing business, especially our line of work, is about integrity. You pay enough, we naturally do enough. Mr. Chu, all I can say is that you've come too late, and what you hold dear is worthless in my eyes."

  "Whatever you want at night, as long as I have it, I can give it to you!"

  "Mr. Chu, as a man, you must be magnanimous. Losing is just losing, why be afraid to admit it?" Zero bent down and stroked Chu Lingtao's face, "Unfortunately, there are still 25 minutes left, I have to rush off, can't play with you anymore." After speaking, she chopped her palm towards his neck.

  Looking at the fainting Chulin Tao, Zero yawned and casually pulled down a woolen tapestry from the wall to wrap around her body, then began her destructive action. As for the basement of the Chu family, she had already explored it clearly, but the last door lock was an iris recognition security system, which only allowed Chulin Tao to enter.

  If it weren't for the substantial gains, she wouldn't have tolerated that abuse earlier! When I get back, I'll definitely tell Ye, her codename may be Zero, but she's absolutely a living person who can feel pain and hurt, if there's another mission like this, she might just go see a psychologist.

  ……

  When Chu Lin Tao woke up, the underground room had been smashed into a warehouse for storing old electrical appliances. He recalled Zero's words, such as his crimes and the impending prison disaster, he knew that he could not escape. Even if he could escape legal punishment, he could not escape the pursuit of night.

  Is it going to end in failure like this?

  Unwilling to accept...

  Refuse to accept...

  Several hours later, the shrill sound of police cars echoed on the road, and a traffic accident occurred at the intersection of Bao Shan Road. After receiving the alarm from eyewitnesses, the traffic police rushed to the scene immediately. The accident site had been cordoned off with warning tape, and three or five traffic police were measuring with a ruler from time to time, while a slender traffic policeman was concentrating on recording.

  "The driver's head is injured more seriously and has been sent to a nearby hospital by ambulance." The traffic police officer who was holding the ruler put it away while speaking to the man standing beside him.

  "What's the situation?" The one called "head" was a man of medium build, over thirty years old, wearing a police cap. His face couldn't be seen clearly under the dim streetlight, but his voice sounded somewhat low and deep.

  "Witnesses said the accident happened very quickly, and the vehicle involved was traveling at ultra-high speed. The skid marks have already been measured, and it's feared that the speed was at least over 260 km/h."

  "So soon?" The man finally lifted his head, looking at the scrapped car parked beside him with a surprised gaze.

  Moreover, based on the evidence found on the injured person's body, it is likely that he is the CEO of Chu Corporation - Chu Lintao. The hospital has already notified his family, but this matter may shock not only the city but also the whole country. After all, Chu Corporation is a listed company and has a good reputation domestically.

  "Whether he is a wealthy businessman or an ordinary citizen, for us police, the truth is the first step towards fairness and justice." The man said calmly.

  "Head, we can pack up now." Just as they were speaking, the traffic police had already finished their work.

  "Alright, after returning to the team, sort out the materials and check if there's any problem with this car. I'll go to the hospital and communicate with the injured person's family, and take a look at the injured person's condition."
