Chapter 199: How poor you have become
Five in the afternoon!
Inside the Haicheng police station, the interrogation door opened,?and Xia Mo and Xiao Liu walked out.
Xiao Liu smiled and licked his lips. âXia Mo, what do you think Zhou Jianchengâs life is all about?â
Xia Mo smiled and said, âWhat nurturing?â
âThatâs right,â Xiao Liu chuckled. âZhou Jiancheng is already 52 years old, and he has a 25-year-old wife. Sheâs beautiful and sexy, with a great figure. He would have some face if he took her out. But what could be his motive?â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThe number of times he sleeps with his wife in a month is not as much as the number of times the driver sleeps with his wife. Do you think he married his wife or the driver?â
Hearing Xiao Liuâs words, Xia Mo giggled and said, âDonât talk nonsense. You donât care who they marry. How can we understand the lives of rich people?â
âTrue,â Xiao Liu agreed, still smiling. âI didnât expect that no matter how wealthy you are, some things are the same as an ordinary personâs life. You can still end up wearing a âgreen hat.â Itâs nothing special.â
âHowever, Captain Xia, I really donât think it was his wife. She doesnât have any need for it. They have a prenuptial agreement. Even if this happens, she would only receive a maximum of 1.8 billion. As she said, she might as well give birth to Zhou Jiancheng.â
âIf she can have a child with Zhou Jiancheng, this child will be the heir of the Zhou familyâs property.â
âMoreover, the hospital has proven that she is busy preparing for pregnancy. There is a team of doctors who are helping her recuperate so that she can conceive better. There is no reason for her to kill Zhou Jiancheng.â
âYeah, I think it has nothing to do with her.â Xia Mo nodded and said, âDuring the interrogation, I could tell that she was very upset about Zhou Jianchengâs death. The child wasnât pregnant yet, and with Zhou Jianchengâs death, she lost at least tens of billions of dollars in inheritance. To put it bluntly, unless she was an idiot, she would only kill Zhou Jiancheng at this time.â
âBut thatâs a huge sum,â Xiao Liu remarked. â1.8 billion is no small amount. While we talk about it casually, if you think about it carefully, itâs a terrifying sum of money. Itâs enough for her to live a luxurious life.â
Xia Mo nodded in agreement. âYouâre right. Not to mention 1.8 billion, even 100 million is enough to sustain a lifetime. Thatâs why thereâs still some suspicion. However, we donât have any evidence so far. By the way, did Zhou Jianchengâs ex-wife contact him?â
âWeâve been contacted.â Xiao Liu said, âBut she already has a life of her own. After her ex-wife divorced 20 years ago, she emigrated to the United States. She is already married and has?children in the United States. She has two children over there.â
âBesides, she basically has no relationship with the country. Zhou Kang is her biological son. She only expressed her regret for Zhou Kangâs death. Her biological relationship is so weak. I donât think it has anything to do with her.â
Xia Mo nodded and sighed. âItâs a perplexing case. Alright, letâs wrap up for today. Let me know if there are any updates. Iâll head back first.â
âWell, all right, Captain Xia, you can go back first.â
Ten minutes later, Xia Mo left the police station wearing a casual sports suit. She took out her phone, hesitated for a moment, and finally dialed Chu Tianâs number.
Chu Tian answered the call quickly, lowering his voice. âHey, Sister Xia, whatâs up?â
Hearing Chu Tianâs hushed tone, Xia Mo furrowed her brow and said, âChu Tian, havenât you finished your class yet?â
âClass is over,â Chu Tian replied softly. âXiao Bai and I are playing in the library.â
âOh, I see.â Xia Mo said, âThen, donât accompany big baby for now. Letâs meet alone. I have something to discuss?with?you.â
âSure.â Chu Tian said, âThen Iâll talk to Xiao Bai.â
In the library of Haicheng Medical University, Chu Tian hung up the phone and looked at Bai Xiaochun and Yang Rong,?who were reading a book. He said: âBaby, why donât you play with my classmate? I have to go see Sister Xia. Sister Xia has something to talk to me about.â
Huh?
Bai Xiaochun was taken aback. She glanced at Yang Rong,?who was picking out a book and whispered, âIt canât be, you scoundrel. Did you give yourself to Sister Xia after sending her home last night?â
âUh⦠how is that possible?â Chu Tian said with a black line, âSister Sisi and I sent Sister Xia along.â
âThen, Sisi spoiled you so much. She doesnât care about you. Maybe she will help you.â
âI really didnât.â Chu Tian smiled bitterly and said, âIâm crazy. Thatâs?Sister Xia. I?have to dare.â
âThen, why did Sister Xia suddenly want to talk to you alone? You really didnât do anything?â
âI really didnât.â Chu Tian said, âDonât worry, your husband isnât this kind of person, donât think too much. Iâll go find Sister Xia, you and Yang Rong will be together. The two of you donât go anywhere without anyone. You can go to the milk tea shop and bar. Be good.â
Bai Xiaochun giggled and said, âI know.â
âIâll go first, then.â
As he spoke, Chu Tian kissed Bai Xiaochun on the head and left the library.
Six ten in the evening!
Chu Tian entered a coffee shop where Xia Mo was already waiting for him. Seeing him, Xia Mo smiled, and he went straight to her table. He sat down and said, âSister Xia, are we sneaking around? Are you taking me out alone?â
âIâm the one who asked you out,â Xia Mo replied with a smile. âDid you have dinner yet?â
âNo,â Chu Tian answered. âI was just about to sit down with Xiao Bai and me when you called me over.â
âThen letâs order first.â Xia Mo said, âSis, treat you today.â
âNo, no, no.â Chu Tian said with a smile, âSis, said this, how can I let you pay? Youâre already poor.â
What?
Xia Mo was taken aback. She smiled and rolled her eyes. âFine, Youâre the only one with money. Please take it.â
âWell, let?me see.â Chu Tian smiled as he took a look at the menu and said, âSis, letâs have a cheese pizza, two portions of pasta, two portions of fruit salad, two large cups of juice, and a dessert, okay?â
âSure.â Xia Mo said, âWe canât eat these.â
âWell, thatâs all there is to it.â
As he spoke, Chu Tian beckoned the waiter over and handed the menu over.
After ordering, Chu Tian said, âSis, tell me, whatâs wrong? Why?did you suddenly ask me out alone?â
