Cai Ping immediately started ranting: “You’re such a strange girl! How could
this old woman remember something that happened five years ago! Weren’t you looking for Han Suwen? Why would you question me? You’re not a cop, and
I’m not a criminal!”
Once Cai Ping started talking, she couldn’t stop, speaking quickly like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube, making it sound like hundreds of bees buzzing around the listener’s ears.
Ming Jing smiled: “That day was when your granddaughter went missing. How could you be so forgetful at your age? Are you that young and already suffering from Alzheimer’s disease?”
Cai Ping was stunned: “What the hell is that all about?”
Xu Huan sneered, Ms. Zhu was really good at implying things.
Cai Rong said, “Auntie Cai, Alzheimer’s is dementia in the elderly.”
Cai Ping was like a cat that has its tail stepped on and exploded, “How dare you say I have dementia?!”
“Then tell me, what were you doing on the evening your granddaughter went missing?”
The cold tone of the girl made Cai Ping’s heart tight, and she subconsciously said, “That… That day I was cooking at home, my foot was sprained, and it was inconvenient for me to go downstairs. I hadn’t gone downstairs for several days.”
“Oh, how convenient. So, the loss of your granddaughter has nothing to do with you?”
“Of course, it has nothing to do with me! It’s her mom who didn’t take good care of her and lost her, what does it have to do with me? Why are you so weird? Weren’t you looking for Han Suwen? Instead, you keep questioning me, acting like a cop and meddling in everything.”
Ming Jing nodded, “Very well.”
Han Suwen walked over and said, “Ms. Zhu, what do you want from me?”
She looked beautiful when she was calm, but these five years had not treated her well. She looked haggard, had large bags under her eyes, a sickly complexion, and was skin and bones. It seemed that a gust of wind could blow her away.
Ming Jing looked at her with deepening eyes.
“Do you have a place to live after leaving the Qin family?”
Han Suwen bit her lip and lowered her head.
She was not from Jiangzhou but from Yunzhou near Jingdu. She and Qin Xu were university classmates. After they fell in love, she went against her family’s wishes and followed him to Jiangzhou. After giving birth to their child, she quit her job to take care of the child and Qin Xu, never expecting this outcome after giving up everything. Ming Jing said, “Come with me.”
Han Suwen looked up, astonished.
Qin Xu held Han Suwen’s hand, “Suwen, you can’t go…”
Han Suwen shook off his hand and looked at him coldly, “You’ve made your choice just now. I respect your decision. Just let me know when you decide on a divorce date, and I’ll be there on time.”
To Ming Jing, she said, “Ms. Zhu, please wait for me.”
She quickly walked into the bedroom and came out carrying a bag. She pulled her suitcase and left.
Cai Ping complained, “What’s the background of this woman?”
Qin Xu frowned, “Mom, she is Ms. Zhu from the Zhu Group, don’t talk about her like that.”
Cai Ping was not sensitive to these groups, but Cai Rong was incredulous, “The Zhu Group? You mean the real estate company?”
Qin Xu nodded.
“Wow, Auntie Cai, do you know? The Tianheng Garden house that you wanted to buy is a property of the Zhu Group!”
Now Cai Ping got the idea. She and her son’s savings for half a lifetime could
only afford a down payment for one house. All the buildings in Tianheng Garden belonged to Zhu Group, not to mention their other properties…
Cai Ping couldn’t believe it, “Han Suwen actually offended Ms. Zhu from the
Zhu Group? We’re doomed! I hope we don’t get implicated.”
Cai Rong’s eyes were laughing, but she said, “Don’t worry, Auntie Cai. Ms. Zhu is discerning and won’t bother with us commoners. But Sister Suwen went too far. How could she take Ms. Zhu’s sister? That’s not right! There are only two heiresses in the Zhu family, where did this young lady come from? Is she her cousin?”
“Son, let’s not get involved in this. It’s Han Suwen’s mess, not ours. Ms. Zhu is reasonable. You’d better divorce her quickly and completely. Otherwise, if Ms. Zhu stops us from buying a house, we’ll be in trouble.”
Qin Xu left them and chased after them, but Ming Jing and the others were already gone.
The neighbor across the hall secretly retracted her head. The Qin family’s drama was now a big deal.
As they left the residential area, Xu Huan secretly pulled Ming Jing to one side, glanced at Han Suwen not far away, and whispered, “Ms.. Zhu, are you really suspicious that Nannan’s disappearance has something to do with Cai Ping?”
