Chapter 2333: Chapter 2337: Stunned
The Gu Family’s courtyard.
Zhan Jinchuan was in shock when he saw the news of Ruan Feifei’s death.
In today’s society, nearly everyone has a mobile phone, and the first reaction when something happens is to take it out, record a video, and post it on social media.
It didn’t take long for the video and news of the madwoman strangling Ruan Feifei to death while riding on her to spread everywhere.
Some people even started a live broadcast, standing directly at the scene to broadcast live.
After seeing the news, Zhan Jinchuan thought it was fake, so he hurriedly opened a video, watching it from start to finish, paying close attention.
It wasn’t fake.
Ruan Feifei was really dead.
Dead as can be.
He stared at the video looping on his phone, a buzzing sound filling his ears.
Dead?
A living person, a few hours ago, he had even spoken to her on the phone, a few hours without contact, and she vanished from the world just like that?
His mind felt cluttered, yet blank, with a sense of unreality.
Gu Junzhu was tapping away on the laptop on his knees.
These days, with many family matters to handle, he planned to officially return to work once Zhan Jinchuan and Wei Hanting left.
These past few days, unless there was something only he could solve, he’d handle work matters from home using the computer.
Noticing Zhan Jinchuan silent for a while, he took a quick look at him between tasks: "What’s wrong?"
"Ruan Feifei... is dead..." Zhan Jinchuan turned to look at him, his expression absent-minded.
"Oh..." Gu Junzhu responded flatly, without a hint of surprise on his face.
Zhan Jinchuan realized something: "You knew?"
Gu Junzhu, his eyes fixed on the computer, fingers agile on the keyboard, said casually, "I didn’t know."
"Didn’t know?" Zhan Jinchuan was puzzled: "Then how can you be so calm?"
Gu Junzhu’s eyes remained on the screen: "I guessed it."
"Guessed it?" Zhan Jinchuan frowned: "What do you mean?"
"I had Xiao Gu Qi send someone to inform Lin Rong of Ruan Feifei’s whereabouts," Gu Junzhu said, "Otherwise, how could a mentally unstable woman like Lin Rong find Ruan Feifei?"
"Why?" Zhan Jinchuan furrowed his brows: "Xiao Zhu, you’re going too far, murder is illegal! Ruan Feifei’s death is a loss of life, Lin Rong killed Ruan Feifei and she’ll have to pay with her own life, that’s another life lost! You... how could you be so reckless?"
"Lin Rong won’t have to pay with her life," Gu Junzhu’s fingers flew over the keyboard, multitasking, "She’s mentally unstable, with a certificate from a credible institution, even if she kills, she bears no legal responsibility."
Zhan Jinchuan: "...Xiao Zhu... why? Why did you let Lin Rong go kill Ruan Feifei?"
"Shh..." Gu Junzhu closed the laptop, tossed it aside, and looked at Zhan Jinchuan with a half-smile: "Brother Chuan, you should watch your words! Killing by Lin Rong is not illegal, but if you accuse me of inciting murder, then I’d be breaking the law!"
Zhan Jinchuan: "...Isn’t that what it is?"
"Of course not," Gu Junzhu said, "I merely had Xiao Gu Qi’s people inform Lin Rong of where Ruan Feifei showed up. From start to finish, neither I nor my subordinates ever instructed Lin Rong to kill Ruan Feifei. That’s a world away from your accusation that I incited Lin Rong to kill Ruan Feifei, right?"
"But didn’t you expect it?" Zhan Jinchuan looked at Gu Junzhu, his expression complex: "You expected that when Lin Rong saw Ruan Feifei, she would definitely kill her."
