How to capture the evil villain? I choose to be his mother!

Chapter 72 The Black Lotus Movie Emperor's Rich Mother
Shen Xuecheng looked down upon women and children the most in his life.

But now, he was suppressed by Zhu Wen and Zhu Mo, mother and son, and could not stand up.

He was angry and dissatisfied, and furious at Zhu Mo's incompetence.

But Zhu Mo remained unmoved, and openly looked at Shen Xuecheng as if he were a clown.

He turned and left only after he had almost finished watching the monkey show.

He left behind the cowardly and weak self of the past, along with the name "Shen Mo".

After returning home, Zhu Mo selected some of the conversation he had just had with Shen Xuecheng and told it to Zhu Wen.

Zhu Wen never blamed Zhu Mo, but just touched his head and praised him:

"Well done! You should have scolded him severely!"

Zhu Mo raised his little face, looking worried:

"Isn't it too much for me to say that? After all, he is my biological father..."

Zhu Wen said without hesitation:
"How could that be? He didn't fulfill his responsibilities as a father, so why should he ask you to fulfill your obligations as a child! Momo, you are right!"

Zhu Mo seemed to be comforted and snuggled up to Zhu Wen like a little animal.

Zhu Wen smiled slightly.

She could see through Mo Mo's little temptation.

But she also understood that this was Mo Mo's way of survival that had been rooted in his bones for a long time.

It may be difficult to completely remove it.

It can only be washed away slowly with time.

It doesn't matter, she can afford to wait.

"Ma'am, there is a letter for you. The sender's surname is Zhao."

Feng Siyi came over with a brown paper envelope.

"Zhao?"

Zhu Wen immediately thought of Zhao Qin.

The news about Shen Xuecheng broke out yesterday.

Shortly after the news broke, Zhu Wen received a contact from Zhao Qin who was in the detention center, saying that he had something to tell her.

Zhu Wen was too lazy to see her and just thought it was Zhao Qin's dying struggle.

I didn't expect Zhao Qin to be so anxious that she simply sent a letter today.

Feng Siyi: "Do you want to demolish it?"

Zhu Wen didn't want to pay attention to it.

But then I thought:
"Tear it down."

She wanted to see what clichéd nonsense Zhao Qin was going to say.

However, Zhu Wen did not expect that what Zhao Qin threw at him was a heavy bomb -

After opening the cowhide envelope, there was no letter inside, only a small black USB flash drive.

Feng Siyi took the computer, plugged in the USB drive, and found the recording file inside.

"Click to listen."

Zhu Wen looked indifferent.

Feng Siyi did as she was told.

The recording file will then play.

However, it was not Zhao Qin's voice, but Shen Xuecheng's unilateral conversation with someone.

He gnashed his teeth, as if he was extremely angry:
"...Do you think you can threaten me like this? I tell you, not only will your precious daughter be driven crazy by my torture, but you two old guys will also have no chance of having a good life..."

Snapped!
The recording stops abruptly!

Zhu Wen covered Zhu Mo's ears in time.

She slowly raised her eyes and met Feng Siyi's shocked gaze.

Feng Siyi stammered:

"This, could this be your parents and... and..." Feng Siyi couldn't continue!
Because this recording most likely means... Zhu Wen’s parents’ death was not an accident!
Zhu Wen's face darkened. He didn't expect that there was another hidden story behind this.

She immediately ordered:
"Go to the detention center now!"

Feng Siyi came back to her senses in time and couldn't help but remind:
"Ma'am, prisoners in the detention center cannot meet with their loved ones at will. Even if you apply by phone, it will take time..."

Zhu Wen was annoyed that he had forgotten about this.

But she thought quickly:
"...Then contact Zhao Qin's parents! She wants to see me, which means she has more bargaining chips in her hand! This thing can only be in the hands of someone she trusts!"

Feng Siyi nodded immediately:

"I'll do it right away."

While waiting for Feng Siyi to contact the Zhao family, Zhu Wen kept pondering and recalling the details of his parents' death.

Because it happened so long ago and she was mentally unstable during that time.

Therefore, that memory is also intermittent -

When she just got divorced, her parents blamed Shen Xuecheng for not sharing her hardships, but when they thought about how she almost hurt her child due to postpartum depression, they could understand Shen Xuecheng's choice to some extent.

But not long after, his parents learned that Shen Xuecheng had remarried, his new wife came from a wealthy family, and she became pregnant quickly after marriage, so they felt that something was wrong.

Sure enough, they soon found out the truth about his infidelity and guessed that her postpartum depression was probably related to it, and they were immediately furious.

His parents knew that Shen Xuecheng was already a young entrepreneur with some success at the time, and it would be like hitting a rock with an egg for an ordinary person to go against him.

So they thought of other ways to retaliate against him, and even mentioned in front of her that "he must pay the price!"

Later one day, my father came back from outside very excitedly and told my mother that he had contacted Shen Xuecheng’s former fellow villagers and heard some rumors that could ruin his reputation!
At that time, she was in a daze and had little perception of the outside world. Even if she heard this, she didn't care, and she didn't pay attention to what her mother said to her father when she pulled him aside.

Not long after that, my parents got into a car accident...

……

Now that I think about it, my parents should have not only found out about Shen Xuecheng’s past, but also found solid evidence.

For some reason, they did not announce it to the public. Instead, they approached Shen Xuecheng and asked him for something.

This angered Shen Xuecheng, and he cruelly killed his parents...

"Ma'am, I contacted Zhao Qin's father. As expected, he has been waiting for this call for a long time and asked us to meet now!"

Feng Siyi came hurriedly.

Zhu Wen decided decisively to keep the appointment.

Zhu Mo had been listening silently, and seeing this, he also wanted to follow.

But Zhu Wen didn't want him to get involved in these complicated matters, so he carefully calmed him down and advised him to stay at home.

Afterwards, Zhu Wen took Feng Siyi to the appointment.

The meeting place was scheduled to be in a private room of a teahouse near Jiujingtai.

Father Zhao seemed certain that Zhu Wen would contact him after seeing the envelope, so he waited in the teahouse early in the morning.

Zhao's mother was also there, but she just sat quietly beside them and didn't say anything.

Zhu Wen is too lazy to waste time talking nonsense, so he gets straight to the point:
"What on earth is that thing in your daughter's hand?"

Father Zhao was not in a hurry and poured a cup of tea for Zhu Wen:
"Ms. Zhu, business is an equal exchange. We came here with sincerity, and we can't go back empty-handed."

This display of cards dragged the box into the atmosphere of a negotiation table.

If Zhu Wen acts too impatiently, he will only be at a disadvantage.

She suppressed her anxiety and looked at the couple in front of her calmly and sharply——

Compared with her memory, the Zhao couple looked much more haggard and their spirits were not as good as before.

Zhao's mother, who usually wears jewels and is arrogant, looked very simple today, wearing only a pair of small-sized sea pearl earrings.

It seems that the Zhao family is not in a good situation.

In this case, the person who is really anxious is probably not her.

She leaned back and tapped the table slowly:

"Of course you can exchange it, but how can you guarantee that this thing is worth exchanging?"
