Chapter 31 The terminally ill mother-in-law who killed her daughter-in-law 15
Father and son broke up unhappy.
Brother Xie couldn't take a long leave from work, and the court wouldn't be in session for a while, so he had to go back to work. But before he left, he tried to find a good lawyer for Mother Xie.
Ye Zhiqiu didn't take it seriously after she found out. Xie's mother would not live long, so she had to send her a gift before that. She spent points to ask the system to help reveal Xie Yuan's whereabouts to the local underworld.
A group of armed men with firearms suddenly heard that there was a wealthy man, so they kidnapped him without caring whether it was true or not. They didn't care if they killed someone by mistake, because in their eyes, all Chinese were rich.
Even if the Chinese have no money, they can negotiate with the government forces if they are caught, or ask the embassy for ransom. In short, the lives of the Chinese are more valuable than their lives, so they will not lose out no matter how they calculate it.
The younger brother below was a little worried: "What if it's not Chinese, but other yellow people? People from other countries may not be taken care of?"
The boss didn't take it seriously: "What are you afraid of? No one cares. It's just a bullet. It only costs a few cents. Are you reluctant to give it up?"
The younger brother nodded and bowed: "Boss, you are wise."
Xie Yuan knew that it was safest to stay in the dormitory and not go out, but he had been locked up for a long time. Prisoners were given time to exercise, but he had never left the dormitory area since he arrived. This was too depressing.
This time, he couldn't help wanting to go out for a walk after seeing other colleagues coming back safely. He had a good idea and would go back to the dormitory after finishing his work, but he was caught as soon as he left the house.
Xie Yuan was a timid man. After being caught, he didn't even dare to beg for mercy. He just hoped in his heart that his colleagues would discover his disappearance as soon as possible.
"Host, Xie Yuan has been arrested, what should we do now?" The system reminded excitedly. Since following Ye Zhiqiu, it has also become bad, not only likes to watch the fun, but also likes to watch the host make trouble.
As the old saying goes, "It's hard to learn good things, but easy to learn bad things", this is an example. However, being a bad guy is fun and free. Being a bad guy is too frustrating and being criticized everywhere. No wonder the host doesn't want to be a good wife and mother.
Ye Zhiqiu didn't want to kill Xie Yuan directly, that would be too easy for him. There were so many viruses in Africa, it would be good to randomly pick one to infect him. He wouldn't die, but living would be more painful. It all depends on his choice.
The system nodded: "Good idea, I will do it right away."
The system helped to contact the local underworld and quickly solved the problem. The other party did not ask who wanted to harm Xie Yuan, they just took the money and did the job.
For them, it is too easy to get people sick. Even without their help, people living in the local area may be infected with various viruses. Therefore, Ye Zhiqiu, who spent money, was just a sucker in their eyes.
Xie Yuan never got rescued. Just when he thought he would die in the hands of the gangsters, he was released for no apparent reason. He was never locked up in the small dark room, and he didn't know how many days he had been locked up.
However, no one had brought him food and drink in the past few days, so he was still alive, and it would not be more than a week. Dragging his weak body, he rushed back to the dormitory as fast as he could, fearing that if he was slower, he would have another accident.
When his colleagues saw Xie Yuan coming back, they were relieved. Three days had passed and they thought Xie Yuan would never come back. They didn't expect that he was lucky enough to return safely even after being captured.
Xie Yuan was worried, as he felt as if someone had pricked him in the confusion during the few days he was locked up, or maybe he had been stung by a mosquito or some poisonous insect.
Mosquitoes and various small poisonous insects in the tropics are very poisonous. Even if you appear to be healthy on the surface, who knows if you are really safe? It is better to have a full body check to be assured.
Xie Yuan was very cautious, but it was too late. The local medical level was not good, and the test results showed that everything was normal. He was worried, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only hope that everything was fine.
After Ye Zhiqiu dealt with Xie Yuan, he turned his attention to Xie's father. Brother Xie was really a filial son. Before he left, he did not tell Xie's father that Xie's mother's injury would affect his future.
In that case, she didn't mind being a bad person and deliberately told the matter in front of Xie's father before the trial.
Father Xie was so shocked that his jaw dropped. "What did you say? The old woman killed someone, what does that have to do with the boss? How can it affect his work? Are you lying?"
Father Xie looked around for help and finally locked onto Mother Xie's lawyer. This was someone the eldest brother had hired through his connections, so he would definitely not lie to him.
The opposing lawyer didn't expect that Mr. Xie was so ignorant. He didn't want to say more, but just nodded to prove that Ye Zhiqiu didn't lie. What can I say? With a murderer mother, there will be criticism wherever I go.
Xie's father left in a trance, and the first thing he did when he got home was to call his eldest brother Xie behind closed doors. He needed his eldest son to give him a positive answer, maybe the leader would take a fancy to him, so there would be no impact.
Brother Xie was willing to comfort his father, but Sister Xie was unwilling to sugarcoat the situation. Brother Xie had a chance to be promoted, but his competitor won because of Mother Xie's incident.
She grabbed the phone and directly scolded Xie's father: "What is there to ask? Other parents help their children, but you are not able to help and are holding them back. Fortunately, we don't live together. If we lived together, would I be the one who was killed?"
Xie's father was speechless. He could still play the emotional card with Brother Xie, but he didn't dare to say anything to his daughter-in-law whom he had only met a few times. If he wanted to blame someone, he should blame Xie's daughters-in-law for marrying down. He couldn't show off his power as an old man.
Mrs. Xie would not let Brother Xie go just because Father Xie did not speak out. She was very upset, not only because of Brother Xie's promotion, but more because of her own situation. Mother Xie could kill her young wife, but who knew if she would kill her.
Although Xie's mother was arrested, there was still Xie's father. Who knows if he would also kill someone with a knife? She didn't have the filter of Brother Xie. In her eyes, Xie Yuan and Xie's father were not good people.
If she hadn't been married for many years and her children were grown up, she would really want to divorce. If she couldn't divorce, she didn't want to go back to the Xie family and never see the Xie family again in her life.
Brother Xie remained silent. This request was too much, but at this critical moment, he did not dare to conflict with his wife.
Sister-in-law Xie would not allow Brother Xie to go back to his hometown, even if Mother Xie's case was about to go to court. The last time he asked for leave, it affected his work, so how could he ask for another long vacation?
It would be fine if he could not get promoted, but if he continued to ask for leave, not only would his mother not be concerned, but his current position would also be affected. Brother Xie smoked for most of the night, but in the end he did not dare to ask for leave.
He also knew that Mrs. Xie was doing this for his own good. It was easy to ask for leave, but he was afraid that his work would have to be adjusted after he came back. At a critical moment, many eyes were on him, and he couldn't chase him away, so it would be much easier to adjust his work content.
The work he is in charge of now is very important and the power he holds is considerable. If he were to take a less busy post, not only would his power be greatly reduced, but he would also be marginalized and face the possibility of being transferred to another job or laid off at any time.
Father Xie knew that Brother Xie would not come back, so even though he was disappointed, he did not dare to say much, fearing that Sister Xie would scold him. He could only go to the hearing alone.
