Chapter 1 Zhang Lin

Zhang Lin returned to his office and immediately opened the envelope to see what was inside.

He untwisted the thread wrapped around the envelope and pulled out a document.

The paper seemed a bit dusty. Zhang Lin shook the document, and the rising dust rushed straight into his nasal cavity, causing him to sneeze. He rubbed his nose before carefully examining it.

The contents of the paper were indeed a divorce agreement. The literal meaning was that Lin Yang was willing to give up the only marital property, wanting only to divorce Zhao Di as soon as possible.

Zhang Lin had long understood Lin Yang's character. He was actually willing to give up the property, and with Bai Ma Shan involved in his divorce, Zhang Lin naturally had to investigate.

"Find out what Lin Yang has been up to lately."

Soon, a teammate came to him and said, "Team Leader Zhang, we checked the surveillance. Lin Yang has driven a luxury car worth over a million back to the residential complex twice recently. We also checked the license plate number. It belongs to a local wedding company. Recently, the car was rented out to a woman, not Lin Yang. And this woman has been very close to Lin Yang recently. The complex's cameras captured the two behaving intimately."

Zhang Lin tapped his fingers on the desk. "He thinks he's found a rich sugar mommy. No wonder he wants a divorce."

The teammate also sighed, "What a scumbag. His wife is still recovering in the hospital, and he can't wait to get a divorce."

Zhang Lin snorted. "He doesn't even know her background and thinks he's struck gold. He's going to have a hard time."

After he finished speaking, he put the divorce agreement back into the original kraft paper bag and handed it to his colleague beside him. "I have a meeting later. If Wu Peng comes, show it to him."

The teammate agreed and took the paper bag before leaving.

Wu Peng was originally going to come in the afternoon, but he was delayed by something at the law firm, so he couldn't make it. He planned to go again tomorrow morning. After work, he went straight to the hospital.

Zhang Lin, feeling a bit tired after returning from the meeting, ate fast food with his colleagues in the office that evening. He worked overtime until ten o'clock at night. When he was about to get up to go home, he suddenly felt a wave of nausea. The hand holding his bag began to tremble uncontrollably in the air.

He felt a spasm and stabbing pain in his lungs. The bag in his hand fell to the ground, and his other hand covered his chest.

His colleague heard the sound and rushed over, realizing that Zhang Lin was in bad shape. He supported him, "Team Leader Zhang, what's wrong!"

Zhang Lin's face was pale, his lips were purple, and saliva was dripping uncontrollably. He felt his brain swinging back and forth inside his skull like a pendulum. The dizziness made it impossible for him to stand up.

"Quick, to the hospital!" Several colleagues didn't dare delay and immediately took Zhang Lin to the nearest hospital.

Wu Peng didn't find out about Zhang Lin's hospitalization until the next day. He came to the police station to get the documents. A police officer handed him Lin Yang's divorce agreement. He asked where Zhang Lin was, and that's when they told him.

"What happened? How could this happen all of a sudden?"

"It's still unclear. The hospital report hasn't come out yet."

Wu Peng asked for the name of the hospital where Zhang Lin was, which happened to be the same hospital as Zhao Di. While handling the matter, he took the time to carefully read the agreement. As he read, he felt that the dust was a bit heavy, and he wanted to sneeze but couldn't.

He confirmed that there were no problems, and it was basically what Zhao Di wanted to achieve.

He thought about going directly to the hospital later to have Zhao Di sign it, and then he would go see how Zhang Lin was doing.

He took the divorce agreement back to the law firm and worked all day. In the evening, he went to the hospital. Jia Wenjun had just finished feeding Zhao Di dinner. Seeing Wu Peng arrive, she got up to eat the dinner that her parents had just brought over with him.

Jia Wenjun didn't want her parents to stay and watch over her, but the old couple were afraid that their daughter wouldn't eat well, so they came every day to bring her food, bringing Wu Peng's portion along with them.

Wu Peng said as he opened the lunch box, "I've read Lin Yang's divorce agreement. There are no problems. Zhao Di can sign this document tomorrow."

Jia Wenjun nodded, "I know Zhao Di has a stepfather. I'll try my best to contact him. The two of them haven't been in contact for over ten years. I'll try to get him to come over as Zhao Di's guardian to help Zhao Di get the divorce certificate from Lin Yang at the Civil Affairs Bureau."

"Good, this matter should be handled as soon as possible to avoid any complications."

Jia Wenjun agreed and then looked at the person in the bed. "Zhao Di can't write now. Is it okay if she puts her fingerprint?"

"Yes, it is."

"Okay, I'll go buy red inkpad after eating."

Wu Peng put a chicken wing in her bowl. He knew she liked to eat this, "No need, I'll go see Zhang Lin later and buy it on the way."

After dinner, Wu Peng rushed to Zhang Lin's ward. There were two of Zhang Lin's colleagues guarding him. They recognized Wu Peng. Wu Peng asked about the situation, and one of them said, "The doctor said Team Leader Zhang was poisoned. Luckily, he was brought here in time. He's currently receiving an IV to clear his nasal passages and lungs."

Wu Peng was shocked. "Poisoned? Who's so bold as to poison a police officer?"

Another police officer said in a deep voice, "This matter is currently under investigation. No matter what, we must catch the person who administered the poison."

Zhang Lin was not awake, and Wu Peng couldn't go in. After understanding the situation, he left with a heavy heart. He went down and bought inkpad and went back.

When Wu Peng returned to the ward, Zhao Di was already asleep. Jia Wenjun softly told Wu Peng about Zhao Di's recovery today.

As Wu Peng listened, he felt his head was a bit heavy. He thought that perhaps he was too tired today. He got up to wash his face and told Jia Wenjun to go back quickly, that he would stay here tonight.

Jia Wenjun also saw his fatigue, "I'll stay tonight. You go back and rest."

Wu Peng felt a tightness in his chest. He didn't argue with her anymore. He said to call him if anything happened, then picked up his bag, opened the door, and left.

As soon as he reached the nurse's station, he felt a burst of dizziness, and he leaned against the nurse's station.

At this time, Bai Ma Shan called Lin Yang to ask about the signing situation today.

Lin Yang had just dropped off the rich woman at a cocktail party. He was sitting in the car waiting when he received a call from Bai Ma Shan. He said with a frustrated look, "Don't even mention it. I could have had her put her fingerprint on the spot, but I didn't expect to run into that police captain. The police took the file bag away and said they would give it to Zhao Di after checking it."

Upon hearing this, Bai Ma Shan felt a chill run down his spine. He had originally wanted to use Lin Yang's hand to directly get rid of Zhao Di and Jia Wenjun, but he didn't expect this idiot to give the stuff to the police.

If the truth came out… His face darkened. It seemed that Bai Xun had to leave ahead of schedule.
