Chapter 1639
Fu Shen didn’t answer, and after a silent moment, he turned towards the bathroom, and soon the sound of the showerhead showering was heard inside, announcing that our conversation had ended in failure. I sat down on the sofa and waited for him, wanting to ask for clarification.
Fu Shen washed quickly and came out of there in fifteen minutes, wrapped in his robe, his hair still wet. When he saw that I was still awake, his thick brow squeezed into his frown and he sighed, but he went to sit beside me, reached out and wrapped his arms around my shoulders, pulling me into his arms.
It had been a long time since we’d been able to sit down like this and talk quietly about what was on our minds, snuggling for a while before Fu Shen’s low, raspy voice rang through the room once more. “Haven’t you always wanted to know why I didn’t go to Grandpa’s funeral?”
I got up from his arms almost immediately and looked up at him blankly, “Why?” Grandpa Fu was one of the few elders, apart from my grandmother, who treated me extremely well, and there was always regret that Fu Shen wasn’t present at his funeral. “Do you know that both of my parents, Ouyang Nuo and I, were killed in a car accident?” Fu Shen said. “Yes,” I nodded, “Ouyangnuo did mention to me that it was an accident, does that have anything to do with it?”
“Well,” Fu Shen nodded, his eyes suddenly became deep, looking straight ahead and said, “You only know that they were both car accidents, but you don’t know that they were killed in car accidents in Jiangcheng and A City on the same day, the day before their accidents, they were also talking about the same business together, two seemingly unrelated car accidents, behind the scenes But it was a long-planned plan to get rid of the scapegoat.” I frowned Avray, surprised, and froze before asking him again, “But what does this have to do with Grandpa?”
Fu Shen took a deep breath, “Why do you think, my parents became scapegoats so easily?” He paused and told the whole story of what happened back then. Fu Shen’s parents, because of their friendship in the previous generation, signed documents suspected of major violations of the law in the presence of Ouyang Nuo’s parents, unknowingly.
On the day of the car accident, Fu Shen should have been in his parents’ car, but Elder Fu kept him alone, and three hours later, Fu Shen’s parents died in an elevated car accident on the way from Jiangcheng to the capital, meanwhile, Fu Shen was taken by the Elder to meet an old friend, and only later did he learn that That friend, he later learns, is the mother of the murderer.
However, the two crashes were flawlessly manufactured and the police investigation concluded that they were only accidents, and the people who were supposed to pay for the violations were left to die with their deaths, while the real culprits went unpunished.
“A week before the accident, my grandfather had already started seeing that close friend, and because of this, my parents were unprepared, mistaking it for a favorable offer from a family friend, and signed the papers without hesitation. My grandfather knew that there was something wrong with that family, but did not tell the truth to make my parents wary, so how could he not be one of the accomplices.”
The last two words, I even heard Fu Shen gnashing his teeth in hatred. I didn’t expect Master Fu, who always had a majestic and righteous aura, to have these past stories, and locked his brows Avray, “So you’re rushing to progress in order to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with your enemies as soon as possible and avenge your in-laws?”
I did not understand, changed to a more serious sitting posture, “Since this is the case, it is all the more important to go steady to ensure the strength is not it, but you have recently made a bold move to pull in relatives and friends, anyone can see that there is going to be a big move, Shen, you and I both know very well that to such an extent, success or death, since we have waited so long, is it not good to wait again, at least until our child is born. ” Fu Shen shook his head, “I don’t have time for that.”
Chapter 1640
“It took me five years to move Fu to the capital, now there is no next five years waiting for me, two years, if I can’t bring down the other side in these two years, I will lose my chance completely when the high official behind the planning of that whole thing back then goes to another level.” Fu Shen’s tone was calm, but very convincing, this thing is not done, maybe he will regret it for the rest of his life, sometimes, the opportunity does not stand the test of time.
This night, Fu Shen and I slept together, but I kept my eyes open in thought, I knew beyond doubt what a dangerous thing to do with someone dumped at my side, but there was no reason to stop it, torn between the fear of losing him and letting go and supporting him, until dawn, when I drifted off to sleep. When I woke up, Fu Shen was no longer there, having heard from Sister Zhang that he had gone back to the office.
It had been a long time since I had sat down to have breakfast with the Four Seasons, and although I had no appetite, I still drank a bowl of congee with the children. I didn’t think Qiao En would really come back, and this time he brought his lawyer with him, two tall men standing together, looking imposing, seemingly expecting me not to let go and deciding to go straight to the judicial process. Four Seasons went straight over and hugged Jon, “Uncle Joe!” Jon smiled and rubbed Four Seasons’ furry head while the lawyer next to him spoke up in a businesslike manner, “Miss Shen, I’m here on behalf of Mr. Jon to talk to you about the custody of the child.”
I frowned, nursing my stomach as I walked over, “Don’t say that in front of the child.” Turning my head, I instructed Sister Zhang from the kitchen to bring the baby upstairs, and the three of us took our seats in the living room. Mr. Qiao felt that your focus on your own family happiness would affect the growth of the child, and he hoped that you would voluntarily relinquish custody. custody, so that there is no need for both parties to go to court.”
This lawyer should be of some calibre, knowing that there was no actual dereliction of duty on my part to go through the legal framework and that they had no chance of winning, so they wanted to start with the emotional side of the case; in custody cases, the judge usually takes full account of the ward’s emotions.
I looked at Jon and said with a straight face, “Jon may not have told you that I am a law major and have recently passed my judicial exams, so there is no need to scare me with the legal framework, I have a family and the ability to take care of Four Seasons, and as for the children …… Four Seasons would also like to have younger siblings to grow up with, it doesn’t constitute me being irresponsible towards my children at all, my love for them will not be biased.”
Seeing that Jon still looked indifferent and as if he didn’t care, I got a little angry and deliberately drove the conversation to him, “Besides, Jon has children of his own, what position does he have to ensure that he can treat them all equally?” My words were pretty sharp too, but they were clearly prepared and not deterred.
The lawyer tilted his head in Jon’s direction and saw him nod before looking at me again and saying solemnly, “The child you believe to be Ms. Lin Baisan’s is not Mr. Jon’s child, and Mr. Jon can also promise that he will not want his own child in the future and will love both children with all his heart and soul, does Ms. Shen still have a question?” I was stunned and looked at Jon incredulously, “How?”
