Chapter 988: 988: Do you think it's such a coincidence?

Gu Zhichuan suddenly looked at Chen Zhou.

A deep memory in his mind was abruptly awakened, and the horrible scene of Ruan Ning’s car accident surfaced before his eyes.

Blood, screams, the wailing of police sirens, and in the end, Ruan Ning died and was pushed into the morgue, ice-cold all over.

“Ruan Ning’s car accident… wasn’t an accident?” Gu Zhichuan’s throat felt choked by a pebble as he struggled to speak, “But back then, the police had already investigated and ruled it as a traffic accident.”

“An accident? If it was an accident, why did Chen Zhou flee far away, and why, after things had settled down, did he suddenly receive a sum of money from an unknown source?” Wen Yanqing retorted, “Do you think that’s just a coincidence?”

From the moment Ruan Ning’s accident was brought up, Feng Yangyang lost her previous fragile demeanor and was staring at Chen Zhou with a frightening intensity.

“Chen Zhou, do you know this woman?” Wen Yanqing pointed towards Feng Yangyang.

Chen Zhou glanced at Feng Yangyang very quickly, then lowered his head, appearing very nervous, “I know her, I can’t forget.”

Gu Zhichuan looked at Feng Yangyang darkly, asking as if to confirm a suspicion in his heart, “What did she do that you can’t forget?”

Chen Zhou timidly answered, “Back then she promised me money and planned a traffic accident for me to cooperate with, assuring me that the traffic police would never find anything wrong.”

Chen Zhou was too nervous, stuttering as he spoke, “At that time my family was sick and needed a lot of money, I was even prepared to sell blood on the black market, then she found me, and for the sake of medical expenses, I agreed to her.”

Feng Yangyang fiercely looked up, “I didn’t do it, Chen Zhou, stop making up stories!”

“I’m not spouting nonsense, Miss Feng, I was blinded by money and helped you harm people. I haven’t slept well for years, every dream filled with blood, and ghosts coming to claim my life,” Chen Zhou said in anguish.

Feng Yangyang lunged at him, putting all her strength into choking Chen Zhou’s neck, “You’re framing me! Say it, how much money did someone give you to falsely accuse me!”

Killing him would shut him up.

That vicious action completely shed her feeble facade.

Gu Zhichuan grabbed her hand, pulled her away from Chen Zhou, and forcefully pushed her away.

He gradually felt a chill rising in his body, “If you’re innocent, why panic?”

Gu Zhichuan stared at Chen Zhou, “Speak! Tell me everything!”

“There’s nothing else,” Chen Zhou stepped back, afraid of the woman attacking him again, “After that, she told me to leave C City, to avoid any future complications.”

Chen Zhou said with shame, “I thought after doing it once she would stop, but I didn’t expect her to continue harming others, so even if I was scared, I still came when Mr. Wen found me. Whatever consequences I have to face, I’m ready to accept them, at least I won’t be troubled by my conscience. But if she doesn’t face justice, who knows how many more people she will harm.”

“No, I didn’t do it! He’s slinging mud!” Feng Yangyang shook her head repeatedly, grabbing Gu Zhichuan’s hand in desperation, “Brother Gu, you have to believe me, how could I possibly harm Sister Ruan Ning! Evidence, he has no evidence!”

Wen Yanqing spoke with indifference, “Just now when you denied plotting against Xing You, you said the same thing. Mr. Gu, you fell for this kind of lie once, falling for it repeatedly would be incredibly stupid.”

Xing You thought, wasn’t that exactly the case?

She sneered, “Probably back then, you were jealous of Ruan Ning just as you were of me, and that’s why you acted, right?”

Feng Yangyang clutched her chest, gasping for breath, struggling to breathe.

Even though she looked like she was in severe heart pain, Gu Zhichuan didn’t show concern like before; he even became colder, frost seemingly dusting his eyebrows, “After Ruan Ning died, you even transplanted her heart.”
