Ye Wangchuan instructed Cai Gang on what to do.
After a while, Cai Gang hung up silently. He took a deep breath of fresh air and lit a candle for the Zhou family in his heart.
Playing this game with this person, they would only be tortured to death.

In the hotel.
After hearing the assistantâs report, Mr. Zhouâs nerves, which had been tense for the past few days, relaxed. A smile appeared on his lips, making him look gentlemanly and refined. âKeep him locked up for half a day. Iâll look for her tonight! Letâs see if sheâll relent this time.â
Seeing that the situation had taken a turn for the better, Madam Zhouâs dispiritedness from the past few days disappeared. Today, she had dressed up and looked especially radiant.
After tidying her hair, she said in a light tone, âHalf a day? Isnât that too easy on them? If you ask me, we must keep him locked up for at least a day.â
She remembered the middle-aged woman didnât know what was good for her and chased them out the other day.
This was such a good opportunity for revenge. She couldnât wait to make the other party suffer.
Mr. Zhou turned to look at her and frowned in disapproval. âWhat do you know?â
Madam Zhou choked.
Before she could retort, he continued in a deep voice, âWe canât drag it out for too long. I asked Captain Yang and he said that that personâs health isnât good. Itâs already his limit to keep him locked for half a day without his medicine. If we drag it out for too long, itâs easy to have complications.â
Madam Zhouâs eyebrows twitched, and she pursed her lips disapprovingly.
In her eyes, Aunt Chen and Uncle Chen were just ants in the sand. Even if they died in front of her, she might not be moved.
She only cared about herself and her son Zou Zheng!
What did their lives have to do with her?
Mr. Zhou seemed to see through her thoughts and reminded her calmly, âDonât forget. Our goal isnât to force them to death but to get them to help us. If both sides suffer, it wonât be good for either of us.â
Ye Wangchuan was still in Beijing.
He could crush the Chen family like crushing an ant, but werenât they also ants to others?
âGot it. Iâll listen to you as long as I can save my son.â Although Madam Zhou was unwilling, she reluctantly agreed.
Mr. Zhou ignored her and turned to his assistant with a serious expression. âConvey my wish to Captain Yang and the rest to treat them to lunch to thank them for their help this time.â
âAlright, President Zhou.â
It wasnât the first time the assistant had done this. He was very good at dealing with matters like this. Thus, he immediately went to do it.
After the assistant left, Madam Zhou returned to her senses and worriedly said, âThere wonât be any accidents this time, right?â
âTheyâre just ordinary people. Donât worry.â Mr. Zhou squeezed her shoulders and walked to the cafeteria to make himself a cup of coffee.
He was a scheming person. He planned to negotiate with Aunt Chen after lunch with Captain Yang and the rest.
Because things were going so smoothly, he made coffee much more briskly.

At the same time.
Without Mr. Zhouâs knowledge, the family who caused trouble in the hospital had already been brought to the police station.
In the beginning, when faced with the policeâs questioning, they still acted like they were innocent. They insisted that their family member had eaten Aunt Chenâs spicy soup, which caused food poisoning. Thatâs why they rushed to the hospital.
No matter how much the police officer reminded them not to lie, they refused to relent.
When the police officers who went to the doctor to collect evidence returned, they brought the residue and surgical records from the gastric lavage and placed them in front of them.
âSpeak.â
