Their plan went unexpectedly smoothly, but unfortunately, they ran into Xiao Wenqiang, who knew the story's ending, and everything changed.
Lying in the hospital, Xu Xinyi finally learned the whole truth. She couldn't believe it and cried to the police, "Impossible, you must be lying to me. Sun Liang really loves me, he wouldn't use me! You're lying to me... you're lying to me..."
Watching Xu Xinyi cry and tear at the sheets, Officer Zhang didn't know what to say. The doctor had already mentioned that Xu Xinyi's body was starting to show adverse reactions due to exposure to "thallium" poisoning. While it might not be life-threatening now, the baby in her womb couldn't be saved.
Officer Zhang then recalled how Dong Zhenhua, with red eyes, had requested a paternity test after the miscarriage. The final test result showed that the baby in Xu Xinyi's womb was not Dong Zhenhua's. Was it fortunate or unfortunate for that man?
Dong Zhenhua (Xiao Wenqiang), the victim whom Officer Zhang pitied immensely, was currently lounging in a luxurious villa, enjoying the air conditioning and sipping red wine.
"86365, do you consider this mission complete?" Xiao Wenqiang thought that Sun Liang, Sun Guihua, and Xu Xinyi had all been apprehended and would face severe legal punishment. And Dong Bin wasn't dead; he was still alive!
[The original host, Dong Zhenhua, wishes to teach his son properly, as he is his last remaining family member.]
"This mission is a bit difficult, Dong Bin has already been spoiled by his upbringing," Xiao Wenqiang said with a troubled expression. "And does Dong Zhenhua have any spare soul power?"
[You handled this relatively quickly. Dong Zhenhua has plenty of energy. He said if you can help him raise his son well, all his remaining energy will be given to us,] System 86365 relayed.
"I don't get any benefit from giving you more energy. Didn't we agree that completing the mission would give me at most 20,000 points?" Xiao Wenqiang still remembered doing two missions and being 60,000 points in debt.
System 86365 was speechless for a moment, and after a while, it replied, [Wenqiang, I applied to the main system of the Soul Administration. They said if this mission is completed successfully, you will be given 30,000 points. Do you want to continue with this mission?]
"Alright, then I'll give it a try!" Xiao Wenqiang agreed and then added, "If I can't complete it, I'll still get the previous 20,000 points, right?"
After receiving an affirmation from 86365, Xiao Wenqiang called Dong Bin.
Dong Bin was originally scheduled to go to Yangliu County the next day, but after Xu Xinyi and Sun Guihua were interrogated, he stayed behind to cooperate with the investigation.
When he learned all the truth and discovered that Sun Guihua was indeed his biological mother, he was sad for a while. After all, this biological mother wanted to kill him!
However, Dong Bin didn't have much affection for his mother, and he couldn't remember much from before the age of four. So, after a few days of sadness, he returned to his previous dissolute lifestyle.
When Dong Zhenhua's phone rang, Dong Bin was at a KTV with a group of friends, howling at the top of their lungs! However, they hadn't called any women this time; he was a bit afraid of women lately. As soon as he saw Dong Zhenhua's name on the caller ID, he rushed out of the private room and found a quiet place to answer.
"Hello, Dad, are you looking for me?"
"Where are you now?"
"I... I'm singing with friends after work!" Dong Bin knew that even outside the private room, the sound of the speakers couldn't be completely blocked, so he could only tell the truth.
"You're still working? How long has it been since you went to work?" Xiao Wenqiang already knew that Dong Bin had quit his job a while ago.
"Dad, you already know... Hahaha, that company wasn't suitable for me. I... I'll find another one in a few days and I'll definitely work hard!" Dong Bin could only laugh it off.
"There's no need to wait a few days. What I told you last time is still valid. Go to Yangliu County and learn from Uncle Wang. As long as you can slowly build up the project there from scratch, I'll promote you to manager here when you return." Xiao Wenqiang arranged for Dong Bin to gain experience.
This time, Dong Bin had no excuse and could only obey his father's words. He packed his bags and set off for Yangliu County the next day.
"Xiao Bin, your father called me. Don't worry, Uncle Wang will take good care of you here." As soon as Dong Bin got off the car, the plump and smiling Wang Sanyao was there to pick him up.
"Thank you, Uncle Wang." Dong Bin knew that Wang Sanyao was the vice president of his father's company and had started from small construction sites with his father. He was an old family acquaintance.
"Xiao Bin, you are my nephew, why are you being so polite with Uncle?" Wang Sanyao patted Dong Bin on the shoulder and said, "I also think your father is too anxious. You are still so young, sending you to such a remote place to suffer. If it were my own son, I wouldn't bear to do it!"
"My dad just wants me to stop being so idle. I know he's doing it for my own good." Dong Bin was clear about this. Moreover, after all that had happened recently, only he and his father were left in the family.
"Hehe, it's good that you understand your father's good intentions," Wang Sanyao continued to say with a smile.
However, Dong Bin couldn't help but feel that Wang Shushu's expression seemed to freeze for a second. But he quickly forgot about this small interruption.
After a day of rest, Dong Bin tidied himself up the next day and went to the construction site to find Wang Sanyao.
Dong Bin put on a hard hat. He was excited when he set out, thinking about patrolling every corner of the construction site and showing off his skills. However, after inspecting only a few places, Wang Sanyao, using the excuse of the hot weather and fearing he would suffer heatstroke, took him back to the office to enjoy the air conditioning.
"Xiao Bin, it's not that Uncle Wang doesn't want you to patrol. In this scorching heat, it's common for construction workers to suffer from heatstroke. You've never exercised much, so if you were to get heatstroke here, it would be terrible. You know that thing, yes! It's called heatstroke? I heard that people who suffer severe heatstroke get this illness, and it can be fatal!" Wang Sanyao spoke with great concern for Dong Bin. "Moreover, our Yangliu County is a small town, and the medical conditions are not very good. If you really get this heatstroke, it would be dangerous." httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Dong Bin didn't want to be exposed to the sun himself. If it weren't for his father's instructions, he wouldn't even want to come to this godforsaken place. So, after Wang Sanyao said this, he had even more reason not to go, but he was still a little scared.
"But my father told me to work hard and learn from you, Uncle Wang..." Dong Bin seemed hesitant.
"In this hot weather, even Uncle Wang doesn't want to go out! Xiao Bin, don't worry, I'll put in a good word for you with your father. We're like uncle and nephew, aren't we!"
With Wang Sanyao's endorsement, Dong Bin felt at ease and no longer went to patrol the construction site. He was supposed to be learning about the project, but in reality, he was just passing the time. Except for not having his former group of bad friends, Dong Bin gradually adapted to everything else.
Although Yangliu County was not as developed as Yuncheng, it still had a couple of entertainment venues. Dong Bin had a burst of enthusiasm to live it up for a day after arriving here, but since then, he had been living a carefree life until something major happened at the construction site...
