Before being reborn and getting married, the pampered young lady emptied her family's assets to

Chapter 160 Establishing Special Economic Zones
After the three finished speaking, Li Hongmei got up and left, and An Min went to see her off.

Li Hongmei pulled out a lot of bills from her bag and said to An Min with great embarrassment, "I'm sorry, I was wrong before."

“If I hadn’t revealed your affairs in the capital to Zhao Caihua, none of this would have happened.”

An Min refused what Li Hongmei offered, gently shaking her head.

"No need. We're not exactly close friends; we're just cooperating right now."

We have come together temporarily for our common interests.

Li Hongmei's cheeks flushed slightly, and she tightened her grip on the ticket.

She could sense the distance in Anmin's words, but she also understood that this was the biggest concession the other party could make.

"No matter what, I was the one who made the mistake first."

She shoved the tickets into Anmin's hand, saying, "Please keep these; consider it my way of apologizing."

Anmin took a half step back, avoiding her hand.

"I said no."

"You should think more about how to collect evidence against Zhao Caihua; that's the most important thing right now."

Looking at the tickets that had been pushed aside, Li Hongmei felt a pang of sadness, but she could only put the things back into her bag.

"I understand, thank you."

She lowered her head, turned around, and quickly walked out of the tenement building.

The hallway was dimly lit, and footsteps echoed in the narrow space, much like her chaotic thoughts at that moment.

When Zhang Jianjun got home, he was reading a newspaper on the sofa.

Seeing Li Hongmei return, he asked, "How did it go? Did Liang Yi and the others agree to help?"

Li Hongmei nodded and briefly recounted what had happened at Liang Yi's house.

"They are willing to work with us to find a solution, but we need to find solid evidence first."

"That's great!"

Zhang Jianjun breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to brush the dust off her shoulders.

"Don't worry too much, we'll find the evidence slowly, there'll always be a way."

Looking at her husband's honest and kind smile, Li Hongmei felt a little less heavy-hearted.

"Ok, I know."

She held Zhang Jianjun's hand and spoke to him softly.

"I plan to go back to my hometown tomorrow to find the old man's family and see if I can get them to come out and testify."

Zhang Jianjun frowned: "Go back to your hometown? Wouldn't that be too dangerous? Although Zhao Caihua is in the hospital now, she still has many relatives in her hometown. If they find out you're going back and bringing up old grievances, who knows what they might do to you."

"I'll be careful."

Li Hongmei's eyes were firm; she thought the same way as Liang Yi and the others.

Only by making Zhao Caihua shut up completely can they have a peaceful life.

Although it hurts to peel off this plaster, it's better than causing her to bleed heavily later.

"This matter cannot be delayed; the longer it is delayed, the more unpredictable things will become. Moreover, only by finding witnesses can those account books be more convincing."

Zhang Jianjun knew Li Hongmei's personality; once she made a decision, she wouldn't easily change it.

He sighed, "Then I'll go back with you."

"No."

Li Hongmei immediately objected: "The family can't do without you. Mom and Dad are getting old and need you to take care of them. Besides, if I go back alone, I'll be less noticeable."

Zhang Jianjun wanted to say something more, but Li Hongmei interrupted him: "Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself. I'll come back as soon as I've taken care of things."

She tiptoed and gently kissed Zhang Jianjun on the cheek. "Don't worry about me."

Zhang Jianjun's face flushed red, and he nodded slightly, saying, "Then you must be careful on the road, and call me anytime if anything happens."

The next morning, Li Hongmei set off with her bag on her back.

The train swayed and rattled along the tracks, the scenery outside the window constantly changing, from the city's skyscrapers to the countryside's fields and villages.

Li Hongmei leaned against the window, pondering the various possibilities after returning to her hometown.

She didn't know what awaited her, but she knew she had to take this step.

Meanwhile, Liang Yi and An Min were discussing countermeasures at home.

An Min turned the radio volume down a bit and looked at Liang Yi, saying, "Do you think Li Hongmei can find the evidence smoothly?"

Liang Yi pondered, "It's hard to say. Zhao Caihua has been running her business in her hometown for many years, and those relatives are definitely on her side. If Li Hongmei goes back to find that old man's family, she'll probably encounter a lot of resistance."

"Should we do something?"

Anmin was a little worried: "What if she gets harassed by Zhao Caihua's relatives and can't collect any evidence?"

Liang Yi tapped his fingers lightly on the table: "All we can do now is wait. We'll wait for news from Li Hongmei before deciding on our next step."

He paused, then looked at Anmin: "However, we can't rely on her entirely. Go to the library tomorrow and look up the relevant legal provisions on reselling and fraud, so you're well-informed."

Reading is Anmin's forte, not his.

His wife was also happy to do these things.

An Min nodded: "Okay, I understand."

She looked out the window; sunlight streamed through the glass and fell warmly onto the table.

"Speaking of which, the radio just said that the special economic zone is developing very quickly, and many people are going there to do business."

Liang Yi followed her gaze to the window: "Times have really changed."

His eyes held a hint of anticipation: "Once we resolve Zhao Caihua's matter, we'll need to plan our future properly. Maybe we can seize this opportunity and make our lives better."

Anmin smiled and said, "Yes, then Si'an and Shouye can also live a good life."

Ultimately, whoever can seize the opportunities presented by the times will rise to the top.

As the two were talking, a neighbor's voice came from outside the door: "Is Liang Yi home? You have a phone call!"

Liang Yi got up to answer the phone and returned shortly afterward, his expression somewhat grave.

Anmin quickly asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

"It was the hospital that called, saying that Zhao Caihua was causing a scene at the hospital, demanding to be transferred to another hospital, and that she wanted to seek an explanation from us."

"She was making a huge scene, and the police asked us to go there."

Liang Yi frowned: "It seems she can't wait to start causing trouble."

An Min's face also darkened: "He's only been in the hospital for a few days, and he's already causing trouble."

Liang Yi's eyes were as dark as ink, indicating that he had no choice but to go; even the police couldn't handle Zhao Caihua.

The two went to the hospital. When Zhao Caihua saw Liang Yi and An Min walk in, she immediately stopped crying.

"Oh, so you dare to come back! Do you think you can get away with everything by getting me into the hospital?"

"Zhao Caihua, we've done nothing wrong, so we're not afraid to come. But you, causing a scene at the hospital demanding a transfer, are you looking for a place to continue your antics?"

Zhao Caihua's face flushed red when her secret was exposed: "I don't like living here! The doctors and nurses are all in cahoots with you to kill me!"

She reached out to grab Liang Yi's arm, but An Min blocked her way.

"This is a hospital, not a place for you to run wild."

An Min looked at her coldly: "Let's talk this out. If you keep making a scene, we'll call security."

The previous chapters will all be revised tonight. Sorry, my darlings. I'll randomly select five people to comment on this chapter and give them 100 reading coins as a small token of my apology!
