103 You reap what you sow Part 3

Shi Meng tossed his phone back on the table extremely confused and amused at the same time.

He knew why he was in a celebratory mood, but why was the slut and her boy toy this confident?

"Hmph. The idiots just might not have come to their senses yet."

"Wait till you wake up to the gift I have prepared for you."

He smirked and continued with his work, slowly sipping his morning coffee.

Di Di Di

Shi Meng frowned and picked up his phone again.

It was his mommy dearest calling, so he obviously couldn't ignore her call.

"Shi! Have you started this dirty habit of staying up all night again!!" Her high pitched voice shrieked.

"Sorry, mom. Sorry." Shi Meng absentmindedly answered her back, and continued doing his work, without missing a beat.

It looked as if he had been doing this his entire life.

If it was anyone else, they would have gotten tired of the constant nagging in a nasally voice.

But Shi Meng was extremely filial and always treated his mom and his late grand father with the utmost respect.

He smiled gently and nodded in agreement with everything she said.

He then remembered about his surprise gift for Su Lin.

"Mom, check out the media. I am sure that will brighten up your morning. Heh" He chuckled and cut the call.

Shi Meng could never understand the monumental hatred his mother harbored for Su Lin.

The sheer sight of her and his beloved mother will start erupting like a volcano.

Shi Meng chuckled and went back to his work, when his mother called again.

"Shi!!! What the hell happened? Is uncle Tang ok? Why are you laughing?"

His mother's voice bled through the phone extremely worried and anxious.

Shi Meng was confused, "Don't panic mom. Calmly tell me what happened."

Shi Meng simultaneously opened his laptop and gazed at the morning news.

Puhark. He almost spit out his coffee.

Mayor Tang had been removed from his post over night!

A huge scandal had broken out, very cleanly and clearly detailing his corrupt and illegal business handlings.

Shi Meng stood completely shell shocked for a second.

He didn't even know what to think.

Was uncle Tang always this unscrupulous?

No wait. Almost every politician had done something of this sort. This was not something new.

But who the hell managed to collect all this incriminating evidence against him?

That's what should have really pushed him over the edge!

Shi Meng crushed the folder in his hand.

He scrolled through further and saw something that shocked him even more than the previous scandalous news!

"Corrupt Hangzhou politician sells his own daughter."

Along with his political mishaps he was actually being blamed for selling his own daughter!!!

Wait, what happened to the trap he had set up for Su Lin???

Shi Meng hurried and haphazardly searched the internet for their photoshop job, like a dog searching for its lost bone.

But alas... None of it was to be found!

He couldn't even find the original pictures in his own laptop!!

What the ???

Shi Meng sat down bewildered. He drooped his head and bit his lips, completely hopeless and out of his league.

He had merely plotted to put up some photoshopped pictures of his ex-wife!!

But his ex-wife had actually managed to overthrow the mayor of the city overnight !!!

Or was it the power behind her?

Shi Meng couldn't tell. Everything was a mess. His mind was a wreck.

After several minutes to silence, he finally looked up.

But there was no sense of defeat or sadness in his face.

On the contrary, he had a wide grin plastered on his face!!!

In the cold empty office, his maniacal laughter echoed endlessly.

Bring it on bitch!

He chuckled some more and left the office to visit Mayor Tang.

This was too big. He needed to visit his uncle first before taking any action.

It was still early morning and the road was relatively empty.

Shi Meng reached the Mayor's house within minutes breezing through the roads.

"Uncle?" He quickly reached the front door and knocked loudly.

1 minute... 2 minutes... 10 minutes...

No answer. He took his phone out and tried calling him.

But to no avail... No answer again!

He then called his mom, who was still sniffling and sobbing, lamenting about their bad luck.

"Mom, did you talk to uncle Tang earlier today?"

"Sob. No Shi. I am not able to reach him".

Several unfortunate scenarios flashed across Shi Meng's mind and he frantically tried to open the locked door.

Hearing the commotion, the watchman and the security guards came to his aid as well.

The four of them pushed the door open and Shi Meng immediately dialed the police, requesting assistance.

But it was already too late... What he feared the most had happened...

Tang Yue and her father both had committed suicide, their corpses still fresh and hanging vulgarly from the ceiling.

Shi Meng fell back, completely frozen in shock and fear.

This time... there was no trace of any sort of smile or competitiveness on his face.

There was only fear and endless horror.

This... There is no way this was just a voluntary suicide right??

No, these were definitely murders.

Both Tang Yue and Mayor Tang had been murdered in cold blood. He was sure of it.

Just how did everything go so wrong???
