Chapter 122: Unexpected Gains

“Because of these two cases of intentional injury, you were sentenced to ten years in prison. You were only released from prison half a year ago. Gu Wan came to you and said that you caused the death of her parents and owed her. She wants you to pay for it, right?”

Hearing this, Shen Shan clearly became more anxious.

The psychiatrist said that when he was nervous or agitated, he would lose control, just like how he suddenly attacked Gu Chu that day.

But now that he was handcuffed, there was nothing he could do. He could only stare at Feng Jia and gnash his teeth.

The incident between Shen Shan and the Chen family’s elders was in the police’ file. But Feng Jia had made up the story about Gu Wan going to him. To be more precise, he was deliberately provoking Shen Shan.

“Gu Wan said that she hated Gu Chu and wanted you to teach her a lesson, right? You don’t even know what Gu Chu looks like, so it was Gu Wan who gave you her photo, phone number, address, and the route to and from work, right? You must have checked the place beforehand and found an opportunity before taking action, right?”

“No! You’re talking nonsense!”

Shen Shan had already forgotten that he denied knowing Gu Wan just now. He was only annoyed at Feng Jia’s accusations, “She didn’t instigate me. I was the one who wanted to do it. It has nothing to do with her!”

Feng Jia laughed. “She knew you felt guilty towards her, yet deliberately said bad things about Gu Chu to lead you to commit a crime. You just said that you understood the law. Then you should understand that instigating a crime is also a crime.”

Shen Shan’s sudden burst of strength almost broke the shackles. Even the iron chair was rattling from his movements!

The other police officers in the interrogation room were shocked by his strength. They shouted at him, “Shen Shan, Don’t move! Sit down!”

Shen Shan shouted, “I don’t feel guilty! I helped her kill those two elders because we were in love!”

Was that so? Feng Jia raised his eyebrows. In other words, she wanted them to die?

With so much evidence in his hands, wouldn’t Chu Chu be overjoyed?

Indeed, Gu Chu was quite happy now.

But it was because she went to the clubhouse.

The last time she left, she had thought of finding an opportunity to come back. She didn’t expect to be able to come back so soon.

After Gu Chu came in, she immediately saw the rockery. She thought it was a little funny. She was drunk at that time and didn’t know how she wandered in. Feng Jia was looking for her from the outside, but she was hiding in the rockery and sleeping.

Lin Yu said gently, “We can walk around later. The person you want to meet has arrived. Follow me.”

Gu Chu was curious. “Who are we meeting? Lin Yu, you and I have been playing charades all the way. Now it’s time to reveal the answer, right?”

Lin Yu smiled. “You asked me to help you keep an eye on Taoist Wu’s painting? I found it.”

Gu Chu’s eyes lit up. “Really?”

“I have a friend who wants to sell it. If you don’t want it, he will auction it tonight.” Lin Yu looked at her with a smile. “Are you surprised?”

Gu Chu nodded. “Yes!”

She had searched for half a year without any results. Now that there was finally news, she wouldn’t give up so easily.

She immediately walked in. “Where is he? Where’s the painting?”

Lin Yu followed her. Seeing her anxious look, he couldn’t help but laugh. “Turn left in front.”

When they came to a private room, Lin Yu knocked on the door twice, then pushed the door open and entered.

Gu Chu looked over. It was a young man. He and Lin Yu nodded at each other as a greeting. Gu Chu felt that he looked familiar. She must have seen him somewhere before.

However, she was now even more interested in the painting that was spread out on the table.

Lin Yu handed her a magnifying glass. “It’s been appraised. This is an authentic painting.”

The young man said, “Of course it’s authentic. If I didn’t need money urgently, I wouldn’t want to sell this. This is my family’s heirloom!”

Gu Chu looked at the painting carefully. She had never learned how to appraise paintings, but she had seen and touched many antiques since she was young. She could more or less know.

Lin Yu stood behind her and looked at the painting with her. “Why didn’t I know that you liked Taoist Wu’s paintings?”

Gu Chu said without turning her head, “It is my mother who likes them, not me.”

Mrs. Gu came from a scholarly family and was very interested in calligraphy and paintings. She had asked many people to look for Taoist Wu’s paintings when her mother mentioned them. She had originally planned to give them to her on her birthday, but there had been no news.
