Film and Television World Life Record

"It's all your fault...it's all your fault...you liar, Lili is gone, the money is gone, the job is gone, everything is gone, it's all your fault, you liar."

"You made me unable to work, you bankrupted me, you made me lose Lili..."

As fists rained down, Manager Zhou, terrified by the crazed man before him, screamed at the top of his lungs, "Help! Someone help! Murder! Help! Call the police!"

However, thanks to Li Mu's intervention, Mingcheng did not hit Mingyu, nor was he arrested, and did not get to experience the majesty of the law up close.

Having never experienced the iron fist, he naturally lacked a sense of awe. In addition, he had been drinking, and all the anger and resentment that had been building up for so long were released during this opportunity.

Manager Zhou soon lay on the ground, unable to stand up, with only intermittent cries of pain and pleas for help escaping his lips.

It wasn't until a car came in, heard the cries for help, and called the security guard to check that a car pulled up.

Mingcheng was startled when the bright light from the security guard's hand cleared his head a little. He was also shocked when he saw Manager Zhou, who was on the verge of death.

He stood up and ran quickly out of the community before the police and a large number of security guards arrived, and no one dared to stop him.

After the commotion, he sobered up considerably. Thinking about what he had just done, he couldn't help but feel a little scared. If he had really hurt Manager Zhou, his life would have been over.

However, he remembered Manager Zhou's miserable appearance very clearly, so how could he be alright?

I'm pretty sure I'll be eating prison food this time.

Perhaps the police have already started arresting him.

With blood on his hands and clothes, he couldn't hail a taxi, so he just walked slowly, reflecting on his 30-plus years of life, realizing it had become a joke and that he had ended up in such a state.

At that moment, he suddenly understood: isn't life just about ups and downs?

Watch him build a tall building, watch him entertain guests, and watch his building collapse!

I've had it too easy in the past, so maybe God wants to teach me a lesson.

As he walked, his thoughts raced, growing more and more as he thought about Lili, his parents, his older brother, and finally, Mingyu.

His impression of Mingyu was extremely complicated; she was his sister, but also his enemy. The two had accumulated too many grudges from childhood.

At this moment, without any personal emotion, from an outsider's perspective, his responsibility for the development of the relationship between the two to this point is considerable.

In fact, he was the one who stirred up many conflicts.

The influence of his mother is undeniable, and his unruly personality, fostered by her doting affection during his childhood, also plays a role.

Lili said he was like a child who had just been weaned, immature and too self-centered, which was probably a genuine feeling.

For a moment, Su Mingcheng's mind was filled with a whirlwind of thoughts, countless images and ideas swirling in his head.

He was afraid, terrified, afraid of losing his freedom, terrified of never being able to breathe fresh air again.

Although I tried my best to reflect on my past mistakes and lament my past naiveté.

However, one must stand at attention when being hit and be punished for making mistakes.

Those who beat Manager Zhou like this today will ultimately have to bear legal responsibility.

Right now, the person he most wanted to see was Lili, but he couldn't, he dared not. His current state would probably disappoint her greatly, and he dreaded that scene. He'd better keep that beautiful hope in mind.

But, I am not willing to give up after all.

He thought for a moment and then sent a text message.

"Lili, I'm sorry."

Take good care of yourself, I love you!

……

There was still no reply from the other end, which made Mingcheng feel both disappointed and relieved.

At this moment, he was afraid to face Lili, and to face her reproachful and disappointed eyes, which would reveal how pathetic he was.

"That's fine!" Mingcheng thought silently.

After walking for a while, they came to a police station. Mingcheng hesitated for a moment, but still went inside.

Since some things are unavoidable, let's face them bravely.

He is still young, and perhaps he still has a chance to turn over a new leaf and start over.

……

When Li Mu received Zhu Li's call and learned what had happened during this period, he was shocked.

I originally intended to use the investment failure as a way to temper Mingcheng's character and make him reflect on his actions, but things have unexpectedly escalated to this point.

Under his influence, Mingcheng failed to beat up Mingyu, but by a twist of fate, he ended up beating up his boss, Manager Zhou.

Furthermore, they struck harder.

Based on the current examination, the injuries include a perforated eardrum, a fractured nasal bone, a fractured mandible, five knocked-out teeth, two broken ribs, a mild concussion, soft tissue injuries, and internal organ damage.

In this situation, it's certain that a case will be filed; the only question is how far the other party intends to pursue the matter.

However, given Manager Zhou's injuries, it's not impossible that with a little extra effort, he could be sentenced to seven or eight years.

Li Mu wanted to reform Su Mingcheng and help him turn over a new leaf, not just send Su Mingcheng to jail for seven or eight years.

From the perspective of suffering and hardship, a year in prison is about right. It allows one to reflect on oneself, repent, and be a good person when one comes out.

If he were to spend seven or eight years in prison, he might be able to manage if he had a good mindset, but with Su Mingcheng's current mindset, he might be completely ruined.

Li Mu thought about it and realized that he couldn't just stand by and do nothing. He needed to go through the proper procedures to keep the sentence within a certain range, so that the student could learn a lesson and reform himself.

"Okay, Julie, I understand. Talk to them first and understand their demands. If possible, try to get them to sign a letter of understanding."

"Don't worry, this matter is not as serious as you think. I will return to China in the next couple of days to deal with it."

Julie sobbed, "Thank you, brother. I really don't know what to do about Mingcheng's situation. I can only rely on you and Mingyu for help."

"It's also my fault for not being home. Otherwise, if I had been watching Mingcheng, things wouldn't have come to this."

Li Mu comforted her, "Julie, it's not your fault, you did a great job."

"With Mingcheng's personality, it's good for him to suffer a little. He always has to pay the price for his mistakes."

"We can only try to minimize the cost."

……

After hanging up the phone, Li Mu turned on his computer, bypassed several layers of proxies, and opened an email address where an email lay quietly.

Mr. Shen's true identity, home address, children's situation, and past information were all thoroughly investigated.

This is the result of an investigation that Li Mu hired at a high price to investigate before Boss Shen absconded.

The "Boss Shen" in question is not actually surnamed Shen; this identity is fake, and he is actually a habitual fraudster.

Moreover, thanks to Li Mu's special attention, the detective focused on investigating the relationship between Boss Shen and Manager Zhou, wondering if they were partners.

Otherwise, why would Manager Zhou be running around trying to secure investment for Boss Shen? This is quite suspicious!

Based on the investigation results, the two do not appear to be partners.

Li Mu, on the contrary, noticed something else interesting: this Boss Shen was quite generous to Manager Zhou, giving him Hermes bags, Dior cosmetics, and large shopping cards... totaling about 20 yuan.

Such a generous offer is probably because Manager Zhou believes the other party is financially strong and has great faith in this investment.

This can be used to our advantage, so that the other party doesn't take it for granted. After all, since Mingcheng was deceived, Manager Zhou also has to bear some responsibility.

She not only completely absolved herself of any responsibility, but even began to retaliate against Mingcheng, the victim. She has no one to blame but herself for this outcome.

Concealing some information about Manager Zhou accepting gifts, Li Mu packaged up Boss Shen's information and anonymously sent it to the Suzhou Public Security Bureau, giving them a share of the credit.

Then, I told my secretary to book a flight for tomorrow; it was time to go back to China.

Chapter 26 Returning to China

When Li Mu got off the plane, Mingyu still picked him up in her car, but unexpectedly, Zhu Li also came.

"Brother, brother!"

"Mingyu, Zhuli, why did you two come together?"

Julie's eyes were red: "Big brother, I wanted to come along. Mingcheng is locked up inside and must be suffering a lot. I really don't know what to do."

Li Mu sighed, "Zhu Li, don't worry too much. With Mingcheng's personality, it's good for him to suffer a bit inside. What if he doesn't learn his lesson and makes a mistake again?"

"How's it going with Manager Zhou? What conditions did he offer, and did he agree to a settlement?"

Julie shook her head in frustration: "I borrowed 30 yuan from Mingyu to pay part of the medical expenses, and I wanted to use the rest as compensation. Manager Zhou is fine now and is recovering. We went there several times, but we could only pay the fees; they wouldn't let us see him at all."

"Moreover, he threatened to make Mingcheng spend the rest of his life in jail, and refused to agree to a settlement, saying that he would make us go bankrupt."

"Big brother, what should I do?!"

As she spoke, tears streamed down her face, and she began to sob softly again.

Li Mu glanced at Mingyu. Given her relationship with Mingcheng, it was rare for her to be willing to spend 30 yuan.

If it were Mingcheng, he might be hoping Mingyu would suffer!

As for why Julie didn't ask him for help, Mingcheng had borrowed 100 million from her and lost it all, so she was probably too embarrassed to ask again.

These thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant. He gently patted Julie's shoulder and said, "It's alright, Mingcheng is my brother. I'll figure something out. It won't be that serious, don't worry!"

Upon hearing this, Julie's sobs finally subsided a little.
