Chapter 782: Finale
Editor: Henyee Translations
After Liu Yue left, Mei Shu immediately contacted Captain Liu and informed him of the information she had just obtained from Liu Yue, asking him to investigate the person named Li Gen.
Captain Liu had been busy with this case for a long time, so upon receiving the information from the two, he immediately began to investigate.
He arrived at the airport just in time. Li Gen had already purchased a ticket to leave the country, but Captain Liu and his team intercepted him at the airport.
Li Gen was apprehended, and he spilled everything during the interrogation.
This time, the Mei Corporation’s PR crisis was indeed related to Ruan Ning and Su Ling.
Lu Si called Liu Yue again.
Liu Yue had helped Su Ling in the past and had offended many people. He was worried that his wife and children would be in danger if he went to jail, so he asked Lu Si and Mei Shu to send them away.
Naturally, Mei Shu and Lu Si agreed. Liu Yue’s wife and children were unaware of what he had done, and they were innocent. Besides, regardless of Liu Yue’s motives, he had indeed saved Tang Mei’s life a few days ago.
When Liu Yue heard Lu Si say that his wife and children’s visas were ready, Lu Si could hear a sigh of relief over the phone.
He said, “Thankyou, Master Si. I’ll hand the recording directly to President Mei.”
After saying this, Liu Yue hung up the phone.
After the call ended, he went straight to the CEO’s office, handed the recording to Mei Shu, and then submitted his resignation letter.
“What are you going to do next?” Mei Shu couldn’t help but ask.
Liu Yue smiled slightly, a relieved and relaxed expression in his smile. “I’m going to turn myself in to the police. They say they’ll go easy on you if you surrender, right?”
Mei Shu looked complex. She didn’t really understand this subordinate of hers; he was always too low-key.
“Take care,” was all she could say in the end.
After receiving the recording, Mei Shu asked Lu Si, “Should we tell Grandpa about this? He’s been investigating for so many years, so it’s also a knot in his heart. It’s better to tell him so he can be at ease.”
Lu Si nodded. “I’ll tell him, but I won’t let him listen to the recording. He’s getting older now.”
Mei Shu knew what he was thinking. The recording detailed Su Ling’s entire plot, and letting the old man hear it would inevitably remind him of the tragic fate of his son and daughter-in-law. That would be too cruel. He had been investigating for so many years just to know the truth, so they would tell him the truth, but he didn’t need to know about the bloody details.
When Grandpa Lu heard the truth, he fell silent for a long time. In the end, he only said to Lu Si, “Got it. When you have time, bring Shu’er back for dinner. I’ve picked out a few auspicious days for marriage, and I’ll let you know after I’ve re-checked them.”
Because of Liu Yue, all of Su Ling’s past misdeeds were exposed, and there were many cases to be tried.
In Lu Si’s parents’ case, with the recording, not only was Su Ling easily caught, but the person who had conspired with her back then was also caught.
Additionally, the police found a piece of animal skin in Su Ling’s safe at home. After verification, it was confirmed that the animal skin was from the beast that had killed Lu Si’s parents.
At this point, the case was already very clear.
On the day of the trial, not only did Mei Shu accompany Lu Si, but even her brothers followed.
Mei Shu thought that at such an important moment, Grandpa Lu would definitely go, after all, this matter was a knot in his heart for many years.
But he refused, saying, “Knowing the truth is enough. I have no interest in anything else. Innocent people who have died need justice, and the living need to live well.”
How could Lu Si not hear the meaning behind his grandpa’s words? He solemnly said, “I understand, Grandpa.”
In court, Su Ling probably knew that she was powerless to turn the situation around, so she didn’t put up any resistance and pleaded guilty directly.
She didn’t look at Lu Si and Mei Shu throughout the proceedings. It wasn’t until the judge announced the verdict and she was taken away that she looked at Lu Si and Mei Shu.
Although she had pleaded guilty in court, there was no remorse in her eyes when she looked at the two of them now. Instead, there was even a hint of provocation.
Mei Shu quickly reached out to grab Lu Si’s hand, fearing that he would erupt in anger.
But what she feared did not happen. The hand she reached out was held tightly.
Mei Shu turned her head to look at him.
Lu Si smiled at her and held her hand as they walked out, saying, “Let’s go. Let’s go back. Grandpa has picked out a few days, and we’ll choose one ourselves when we get back.”
The two of them left, with Mei Shu’s brothers following behind. Hearing Lu Si’s words, Mei Feng asked in confusion, “What days?”
Mei Shu replied calmly, “Wedding days.”
Her brothers: “…”
Why are you suddenly getting married? Did you even ask us?
The faces of Mei Shu’s brothers were very ugly, and after a while, they all bowed their heads in unison.
Their sister wouldn’t ask them for their opinions before making any decisions, but they would always inform her before making any important decisions.
