The couple was silent all the way and returned home in silence.
The two children now know how to take care of each other, so they also finished their homework early and fell asleep.
Xiao Yanran silently turned on the lights in the living room, but when she was about to enter the room, she discovered that Chen Liangshan's arm was covered with bright red blood stains.
"ah!"
Xiao Yanran couldn't care less about being angry at this time and exclaimed in a low voice: "Husband, what's wrong with your arm?"
While she was talking, she stepped forward and took off her husband's shirt. Only then did she realize that there were several wounds as deep as the flesh on his left arm. The blood flowing from these wounds almost dyed most of his arm red.
arm.
"Hey! Are you finally willing to pay attention to me?"
"When did you say this again?"
Xiao Yanran's tone was full of complaints, but she quickly took out an alcohol swab from the medical kit at home. After wiping away the scabbed blood clots, she finally saw the wound on the other person's arm clearly.
There were a total of 5 or 6 wounds, all of which were cut by sharp blades. In the longest and deepest wound, the skin and flesh were almost turned out, which was very horrifying to see.
"Don't look at it, don't be afraid of being scared!"
Chen Liangshan didn't care much, but picked up the band-aid and put it on after a few random touches.
Later, Chen Liangshan took out a red Swiss Army Knife from his pocket. When he opened the sharp knife, he revealed the blood stains on the metal blade. He said jokingly: "Here! Do you understand? It's all.
You just did it, and now the murder weapon and fingerprints are there, tell me what to do!"
Xiao Yanran finally understood that the wounds on her husband's body were all caused by herself. When she was dragged into the flower bed just now, she waved the saber in fear and uneasiness, and unexpectedly it was pierced on her husband's arm.
Finally, Xiao Yanran's angry mood with the other party finally softened, and she whispered: "Yes... I'm sorry... I was too impulsive. If you hadn't stopped me, I really don't know what would have happened tonight.
What's up."
"You! It's good to know!"
Although Chen Liangshan complained about the other party, he still carefully raised Xiao Yanran's ankle and placed it on his leg. Then he gently wiped the wound with an alcohol cotton swab. This action also made the other party gasp in pain and said: "
Be gentle...be gentle...it hurts!"
"Do you know it hurts now?"
Chen Liangshan laughed at the other party jokingly: "Where did your young and Dangerous aura go?"
Xiao Yanran lowered her head and suddenly stopped talking.
"Hey? Hey? Yanran, I was joking with you."
Chen Liangshan hurriedly tried to persuade him, but saw the other party slowly raised his head and asked in a low voice: "Husband, I believe you have your own reasons for doing things, so what happened to me just now...if you don't want to tell me, I
I won’t ask anymore, but I just want to know what you just said...is it true?"
Chen Liangshan: "Which sentence?"
"Just what you said...if anything happened to me, you would...accompany me."
"Yanran."
Chen Liangshan slowly raised his head, looked directly into his wife's eyes and responded: "Whether you live or die, I will never let you be alone. No matter what happens to you in this life, I will be with you.
Understand?"
As the words fell, tears filled Xiao Yanran's eyes.
The pressure and burden of life had made her forget the vows she had made between her husband and wife. When she heard these words again, she couldn't help but feel ripples in her heart, and she realized that the focus of her life was not only...
For the sake of the children, for the family, and also for myself to feel the unreserved love between my family members.
Xiao Yanran quietly wiped away her tears and whispered: "Me too, no matter life or death in the future, I will definitely be by your side..."
"You can not!"
Chen Liangshan smiled and touched his wife's head, and whispered: "Nanny and Xiaoyue can't live without you, so whether I'm here or not, you have to take them to live together."
"Okay, don't say such things again..."
Xiao Yanran couldn't imagine life without her husband and children, and she didn't even want to mention this kind of joke when the love was deep.
A moment later, after Chen Liangshan treated his wife's wound, he helped her limp into the bedroom.
Xiao Yanran sat on the bedside, watching her husband fetching water to wipe her body because of her difficulty in moving, and she couldn't help but feel a little warm in her heart.
For her, too many things happened today, which almost turned her life into a mess. However, whenever Xiao Yanran felt happiness or short-term joy, she could always think of the threat of Wu Chachai.
I suddenly fell into anxiety again about my own affairs.
"Honey, you've started again."
"Ah? How..."
Xiao Yanran came back to her senses and asked: "What started again?"
Chen Liangshan gently moved the other person's legs to the bed, then sat next to the other person, and said in a deep voice: "At that moment, I could see that you were starting to feel anxious again."
Xiao Yanran lowered her head, but her voice was as small as a gnat when she spoke.
"I'm sorry, I didn't fulfill my responsibilities as a wife."
Chen Liangshan gently hugged the other person and whispered: "You mean... you feel guilty because you can't do that kind of intense exercise with me tonight?"
Xiao Yanran didn't react for a moment, but was soon amused and laughed, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
However, she smiled and burst into tears.
"Husband, I'm sorry... I really don't want to be like this..."
Chen Liangshan was not angry, but hugged the other party more tightly and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Do you want to tell me about that man blackmailing you?"
Xiao Yanran said in surprise: "How...how did you know?"
"Actually, when I was at the funeral home today, I heard him tell you to hurry up and prepare the money. But I don't know yet what kind of information you have in his hands."
"Actually... that person's name is Wu Chachui, a private detective hired by Sister Yulan to investigate Mr. Wu's extramarital affair."
Chen Liangshan's heart suddenly sank and he asked: "What? Private detective?"
Xiao Yanran nodded, "Well... I only learned about it recently. About 2 months ago, Sister Yulan suspected that her husband was out... doing something sorry for her, so she went to that man
A private detective named Wu Chachui.”
"but then……"
When Xiao Yanran said this, her eyes dimmed and she said solemnly: "I'm sorry, husband, actually what I haven't dared to tell you is... when Wu Chachui was following Wu Juyang, he accidentally photographed me drunk that night
What happened after..."
This sentence shocked Chen Liangshan even more, but after the shock, he almost broke his teeth.
Finally, Chen Liangshan held back his fists that were shaking with anger and said in a deep voice: "So, this guy named Wu Chahui is using that video to blackmail you, right?"
Xiao Yanran lowered her head, not daring to look directly into her husband's eyes, and whispered: "Yes... he wants me to have 80,000 yuan, and there is still a deadline of 5 days, otherwise... I will show the video to Sister Yulan..."
"Husband, I don't want it, I really don't want it!"
Xiao Yanran said and explained desperately: "I really don't know why it turned out like this. I know you have forgiven me for the mistake I made after drinking that time, but I really don't want to take this matter again.
To stimulate you, but..."
Xiao Yanran covered her face tightly and choked up: "But I don't want to lose everything now... Sister Yulan just decided to let me manage the company. The children will obviously be able to live a better life in the future, but why... why
These things always haunt me like a nightmare..."
Suddenly, Xiao Yanran felt like he was being held in his arms. However, when he raised his head, he found that her husband's expression was not as pessimistic as he imagined, as if all difficulties could not overwhelm him.
Chen Liangshan put his wife into his arms lovingly and whispered: "Don't worry, wife, everything will be fine."
Xiao Yanran didn't understand where her husband's confidence lay when he said this, but when she heard his firm tone, she couldn't help but have any doubts, as if everything would really get better soon.
However, when Xiao Yanran wiped away her tears and the outline of the man in her eyes gradually became clearer, she saw the other person's cold eyes staring out the window. However, no matter how much she asked, her husband never responded.
At this moment, Xiao Yanran seemed to really think that life would be just like her husband said, and everything would be fine.
After a while, Chen Liangshan said with cold eyes: "I'll go see him."
"Husband... you... what are you doing?"
Xiao Yanran was surprised to find that when the other party said this, there was a frightening indifferent expression on his face, and she couldn't help but asked worriedly: "Husband... you, what's wrong with you? Don't you want to... leave?"
Extreme, right?”
Chen Liangshan put away his expression, smiled again and said to his wife: "Don't think blindly, how could I do that kind of thing? I will meet with the private detective to have a talk."
"No! You can't see him!" Xiao Yanran said worriedly.
Chen Liangshan seemed to be very rational in this matter. He explained: "Don't worry, Yanran, this kind of person takes advantage of your fear of not saying anything about doing something wrong. Once I appear in front of him, let him
Knowing that these things cannot destroy the relationship between our husband and wife, the bargaining chip in his hand will naturally be reduced by half."
"But……"
Xiao Yanran still asked worriedly: "But if Sister Yulan really knows about it, I'm afraid...she won't let me stay in this company in the future."
Chen Shanshan sighed softly, "So in this matter, we still need to spend some money to settle it. Wife, don't think about it anymore, I will handle it. And I have already said that last time
It's not your fault at all, after all... you were still calling my name when you were so drunk."
"Stop talking about that..."
Xiao Yanran curled up her legs, buried her head, and cried, "I'm sorry... Husband, you treating me like this makes me feel even more uncomfortable..."
"Okay, it's okay."
Chen Shanshan gently hugged his wife into his arms again and comforted her: "Leave this matter to me, and you can stop taking care of it, okay?"
Xiao Yanran nodded vigorously. Only then did she truly realize that the sense of solidity her husband brought to her made her feel safe, just like a child, no matter how many wrong things he did, there was always someone behind him who would always be there.
Parents who are willing to accept themselves.
After a long time, Chen Liangshan saw that his wife's mood gradually relaxed, so he pretended to be casual and asked: "By the way, Yanran, you have been accompanying Sister Yulan these two days, have you ever found out why Wu Juyang died?
"
Xiao Yanran thought for a while and whispered: "About this matter, the police originally prohibited me and Sister Yulan from speaking out, but in fact... on the morning of Wu Juyang's death, I discovered a problem."
"what is the problem?"
Xiao Yanran recalled: "Originally, the police sent by the police station and the criminal investigation detachment had initially concluded that it was an accident, but then I saw your classmate at the scene."
Chen Liangshan's heart sank and he hurriedly asked: "Which classmate?"
"That's it...I am number one in the world."
"Is it Xu Tiannan? Why did he go to the scene?"
Chen Liangshan murmured to himself, but the tension in his heart became even more intense, "He is the investigation consultant of the criminal investigation detachment. He usually only appears when encountering suspicious cases. Logically speaking, he should not come to such an accidental death case."
?”
Xiao Yanran said: "I don't know what happened to them, but not long after Xu Tiannan went to the scene, the police found Sister Yulan's home and directly informed Sister Yulan that her husband's death was not an accident.
, but a murder.”
"murder?"
Chen Liangshan was suddenly startled. He never expected that Xu Tiannan would find out so quickly. Then he asked: "If this is the case, what did the police say?"
Xiao Yanran thought for a while and responded: "The police didn't say anything. They just moved the computer from Wu Juyang's office to investigate."
This situation was actually within Chen Liangshan's plan. Although he chatted with Wu Juyang for a long time through the software called "Where Are We Going Tonight?", whether it was the photos he sent to the other party or the registration information on the software,
Even the Internet cafes where he surfed the Internet were chosen with great care so as not to leave any evidence to the police.
However, Chen Liangshan felt that the current situation was gradually getting out of control. He never expected that his carefully designed accidental death scam would be discovered by Xu Tiannan so quickly.
So... will the thing that I am most worried about now be discovered by the police?
Thinking of this, Chen Liangshan suddenly realized that he had to take precautions in advance and do something to interfere with the police investigation again in order to avoid being traced to himself in the future.
While Chen Liangshan was thinking, Xiao Yanran added: "Oh, that's right! That private detective named Wu Chachui is simply a scumbag!"
"He? What did he do again?"
Xiao Yanran: "I haven't finished speaking yet. Before the police investigation, he had already replaced the computer host in Wu Juyang's office!"
"Replaced?" Chen Liangshan asked in surprise.
The other party nodded, "Yes, as soon as he went to work that day, he went to Wu Juyang's office. Not only did he change a computer host, but... he also took away a pinhole camera from the bookcase next to him. Husband? What are you doing?
Already?"
Xiao Yanran was surprised to find that when she said these words, her husband's hand holding hers suddenly trembled, and even the expression on his face suddenly became strange and scary. She couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong? Husband?"
?What happened?"
Chen Liangshan immediately realized his gaffe and hurriedly made an excuse: "Oh! I just feel that this person has no limit to what he can do! He even puts a pinhole camera in someone else's office. Doesn't he know that this is illegal?
"
"This man is not only doing something illegal!"
When Xiao Yanran said this, she felt chills running down her spine, with a hint of fear mixed in her words: "He even told Sister Yulan that it was best not to let the police catch the murderer, because... because he actually planned to punish the murderer.
Lynching! This man... is terrible!"
"Just him?"
Chen Liangshan mocked mockingly: "The police may not be able to find the murderer, so how can he be more powerful than the police?"
Xiao Yanran didn't think so. Instead, she lowered her voice and whispered: "Actually, this person captured the murderer's murder scene on the night Wu Juyang died! But he lied to Sister Yulan that it was someone else's driving recorder that captured the scene.
Yes, just because of this incident, he actually defrauded Sister Yulan of 20,000 yuan! This person is simply terrible...so greedy!"
At this moment, Chen Liangshan's heart was like a taut hemp rope that would break with just a little bit of force, and he tried his best to use a normal tone and said: "Then Sister Yulan... has determined that the murderer is
Who is it?"
Xiao Yanran shook her head, "The picture was not taken clearly enough, and the murderer's face was covered, so we can only roughly tell that he is a man over 1.7 meters tall."
After hearing this, Chen Liangshan finally let go of the stone in his heart.
It was so dangerous. When I did it that night, I didn't even realize that I was being followed. Fortunately, I was wearing a mask and a hat that night, so it didn't cause a big disaster.
"Husband? What are you thinking about? Why do I feel that your state has been a little wrong since just now?"
Xiao Yanran said this, gently hugged her husband's neck, and whispered: "This person is too terrible. I really don't want to have anything to do with this person anymore. If it doesn't work this time, I will go to my mother to borrow money. Let's
Let’s understand this matter!”
What Chen Liangshan is worried about at this time is not at all about his wife being blackmailed out of 80,000 yuan. He is only worried about two things now.
The first is whether this private detective will find out about himself. After all, such people are not as particular about evidence as the police. Once they have logical suspicion, they will take money to do anything and help their employer do anything.
Secondly, the thing that worries me the most right now is that since the police have filed a murder case against Wu Juyang's death, sooner or later they will find the most critical piece of evidence in this case.
Just some time ago, before doing it himself, Chen Liangshan tried various methods to make Wu Juyang's shoes and the ground achieve the purpose of breaking down the current that night. He even tried to replace all the soles with metal, but these attempts finally ended
All ended in failure.
Just because he didn't have a mold, it was difficult to make metal jewelry that met the requirements. At the same time, he couldn't make the metal jewelry on the shoes too exaggerated, otherwise it would be difficult for the police to identify him as an accidental death.
Therefore, one day some time ago, Chen Liangshan discovered a thief in the supermarket he often went to. The thief dyed his hair red and green, and also wore an exaggerated silver flying eagle armband on his arm.
When Chen Liangshan saw this flying eagle armband, he realized that it was a very suitable decoration. With a few modifications, the pair of metal armbands could be inlaid on shoes as a decoration.
Chen Liangshan was very convinced that when he followed the unconventional boy back home, he took advantage of the moment when the other person opened the door and knocked him unconscious. There was no one else in the dark house except a pet dog, so
That operation should be very safe and covert.
Now, I'm afraid I have to do something, Chen Liangshan thought, but slowly stretched out his hand and pulled Xiao Yanran into his arms.
"Husband, why do you... hurt... the wound on your leg rubbed... why did you suddenly..."
Before Xiao Yanran could finish her words, she felt that her husband was already pressing on her, and she also saw a strong sense of friendship in his eyes.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the bedroom suddenly became ambiguous, and Xiao Yanran's weak protest soon turned into a faint moan.
After a long time, Chen Liangshan looked at his wife who was exhausted and almost passed out, but suddenly she put on her clothes calmly.
He knew Xiao Yanran well, and he knew that she usually worked very hard, and every time after the husband and wife ceremony, his wife would sleep tiredly until dawn.
And this was exactly what Chen Liangshan wanted to achieve. He gently touched his wife's forehead, which was wet with sweat, and whispered: "Don't worry, Yanran, everything will be fine."
In the darkness of the night, Chen Liangshan once again took out the black skullcap and put it on his head, and walked towards the home of the boy who had snatched the Flying Eagle armband from him.
He had a bold plan at this time, that is, he believed that Xu Tiannan would find the unconventional boy sooner or later based on the pair of silver flying eagle decorations.
But Chen Liangshan will take the initiative this time. He will use the police to give Wu Chahui a big gift.
