Chapter 483: Chapter 483: Gu Shiting’s Merit
Gu Shiting asked Song Chen to come personally and explain the situation to the Sheng Family.
Because of this disturbance, everyone in the Sheng Family took leave.
Sheng Zong was extremely happy.
Song Chen arrived an hour later. Breakfast was laid out on the dining table, so he sat down and joined them.
"That woman is called Tao Baiyu. She grew up in an orphanage in Guangzhou. At ten, she started following human traffickers, specializing in luring innocent boys and girls.
Later, the traffickers got caught, and she was only thirteen. After some education in the detention center and unable to convict her, they released her.
After she got out, she joined various gangs involved in activities like murder and arson and eventually settled down in this city. She has been here for three years and has made quite a reputation for herself." Song Chen spoke slowly.
As he spoke, Grandma broke out in a cold sweat.
Grandma still remembered the girl’s appearance, delicate and weak, seemingly harmless.
No one expected that she was a vicious little monster from such a young age!
A person like her, if she wanted to harm someone, would undoubtedly succeed each time. Who would guard against such a pretty young girl?
"Why hasn’t she faced retribution?" Grandma said bitterly.
Gu Shiting, very filial, immediately comforted her: "This time she will face retribution. Song Chen will collect evidence of her crimes to ensure she spends the rest of her life in prison."
Song Chen nodded: "Yes, ma’am, don’t worry. This time she won’t escape."
Grandma slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
Sheng Tang interjected, "Who paid Tao Baiyu?"
Song Chen handed a photo to Sheng Tang.
The photo showed a middle-aged man, a bit overweight and with a fierce look.
"This man is Gao Guoqiang. He informed Tao Baiyu and arranged this business deal for her. My people have already caught him. We’ll interrogate him later and find out who the mastermind behind this is.
According to Tao Baiyu, the buyer paid five million to have your whole family taken across the southern border and then killed one by one to avoid alerting domestic police." Song Chen explained.
Everyone in the Sheng Family put down their chopsticks simultaneously.
Sheng Tang’s analysis was more optimistic; they hadn’t expected that the intention was not just to kill but to avoid doing it domestically.
"It must be someone from the Sheng Family. Anyone who can pay five million is no small figure." Sheng Tang said calmly, "It’s Sheng Siyu."
Sheng Siyu is the patriarch of the old mansion.
"...Why would he do this to us?" Sheng Zong’s hand trembled a little, "We haven’t offended him."
"He’s afraid we’ll take away Grandpa’s inheritance. Think about it, if we split it equally, what we get would far exceed five million." Sheng Tang explained.
Sheng Sidong’s heart sank heavily.
He no longer wanted to go to the patriarch’s place.
"Brother Song, you must interrogate Gao Guoqiang thoroughly and preferably find evidence against Sheng Siyu." Sheng Tang said.
Song Chen nodded: "Don’t worry, I’ll go interrogate him soon."
"I want to go too!"
Song Chen smiled: "That’s not very appropriate."
He was conducting private interrogations, which in a law-abiding society, is illegal.
He naturally has ways to cover it up, but he couldn’t let Sheng Tang be a witness to it.
"Don’t worry, I’ll investigate this matter for you," Song Chen said with a smile.
Sheng Tang thanked him again.
Then, she turned to Gu Shiting and said, "Ting, thank you!"
Song Chen worked for Gu Shiting. The real helper to the Sheng Family was Gu Shiting.
Gu Shiting gently held her hand.
She didn’t pull back.
It was at this moment that Sheng Tang realized just how important Gu Shiting was to her.
Since she had been reborn, getting through school and society as smoothly as she had was largely thanks to Gu Shiting.
