Chapter 395: Telling Wen Han the Truth

~7 min read 1,345 words

From Wen Han's sigh, I immediately understood what he was referring to.

That's the video on the USB drive—only someone very close to that father and son could have made it; otherwise, an outsider would have no chance.

No need to ask—whatever Xiao Sun, he's also gone off to the Western world to have fun.

And Qiu Xi is also involved in all of this.

Whenever their core interests are threatened, these people strike down ruthlessly without hesitation, making people vanish in an instant.

I then took out another cigarette,

I lit it and began to smoke,

After two puffs,

I looked at Wen Han and then said seriously: 「Mr. Wen, since you've asked like this, I don't want to hide anything from you.

My name is Zhao Jianqiang, I come from Zaocheng.

I used to be the chairman of Zaocheng Da Heng Group."

After Wen Han heard me finish these two sentences, he nodded,

"Just like my investigation, Zhao Jianqiang, tell me, what is your purpose in coming to Sijiucheng?"

"My purpose in coming to Sijiucheng is to overthrow the Zhou family. Zhou Renfeng and Zhou Jie, that father and son. I have a grievance. My Da Heng Group was schemed away from me by them joining forces with our local Kong Shi.

To topple my Da Heng Group, they staged a car accident that left me seriously injured and turned my wife into a vegetative state. Mr. Wen, I'm telling the truth.

My status in Zaocheng is that of a fugitive.

I can no longer live in Zaocheng,

I can only wander around.

You need to know that overthrowing the Zhou family requires a powerful backer.

Without a backer, I could never overthrow the Zhou family; I could only die at their hands,

This time I ventured to Sijiucheng precisely to find a backer.

Coincidentally, He Zuming, Mr. He, is an old acquaintance of mine; he said the Wen family's influence is now strong.

He wanted to recommend me to you, so he brought me to the Douqu Hall.

Thus I became acquainted with Mr. Wen at the Douqu Hall.

Everything I said is true,

Coming to the Douqu Hall was to meet you, Mr. Wen, and to find myself a backer.

That is my purpose."

After I finished speaking, two more tears welled up.

I wiped my eyes with my hand.

"What if I don't help you?" Wen Han said.

"That's fate; I'm just an ordinary commoner. No matter how great the injustice, without a backer I can accomplish nothing. Mr. Wen, if you don't help me, then forget it—I'll bear this myself. This trip to Sijiucheng, getting to know Mr. Wen, is already worthwhile."

"What a worthwhile outcome. Zhao Jianqiang, you should know, the Zhou family's power is too great. Those in that position are not someone others dare to touch."

"I want to ask you, do you have evidence in your hands to overthrow the Zhou family?" Wen Han asked me.

My mind was racing,

I wondered whether I should tell this evidence to Wen Han.

Because my understanding of Wen Han is still shallow, I fear that if I expose the evidence, it will bring danger to Shen Honghong, Xiao Fang and the others.

Moreover, the evidence concerning Zhou Fuhai—if I hand it over to Wen Han, I'll have nothing left.

Now, Wen Han hasn't yet become enemies with the Zhou family; can he help me? If these things were to lead to an agreement between them,

What should I do next?

Seeing that I didn't answer directly, Wen Han said: "It seems, Zhao Jianqiang, you have reservations."

"Mr. Wen, I have reservations. First, I want to protect these people's safety. Also, this evidence is also something the Zhou family is looking for."

"If I don't have absolute confidence, I won't hand it over."

"It seems we still lack complete trust. Zhao Jianqiang, I understand you; I've already sent people to Zaocheng to learn about you. Knowing you value loyalty and righteousness,

how, given your current situation, you would protect them.

"If you don't trust me,"

then there's no need for us to continue talking.

"Why would I want to look at your evidence,"

"I want to verify whether these pieces of evidence are genuine and whether they're worth our effort. Do you understand what I mean?"

I certainly understood; Wen Han just wants to know whether these pieces of evidence are critical.

It looks like I must be completely frank in front of Wen Han.

I then said: "Mr. Wen, do you know Zhou Fuhai?"

"Yes. He is the person most trusted by Zhou Renfeng." Wen Han said.

"He is in my hands."

"Ah, he's in your hands. How could he be in your hands? I said, we've been looking for him but couldn't find him." Wen Han asked in surprise.

"Not only are you looking for him, the Zhou family is also looking for him, yet they haven't found him. Zhou Fuhai is truly in my hands, Mr. Wen—take a look at my face; do I resemble Zhou Fuhai?"

I raised my head and looked at Wen Han as I spoke.

Wen Han carefully examined my face,

After a moment he said: "Indeed there is a slight resemblance, but not entirely, because I have seen Zhou Fuhai; he followed Zhou Renfeng to my home."

"I once had plastic surgery to become Zhou Fuhai, and I once stood in for him. Zhou Fuhai was sent by Zhou Renfeng to Zaocheng to handle the Da Heng Group."

In Zaocheng I captured Zhou Fuhai.

Then I made Zhou Fuhai look like me and locked him up in a mental hospital.

Zhou Fuhai is in the mental hospital; does the Zhou Family know now? Wen Han asked immediately.

I shook my head,

They probably don't know. They suspect I killed Zhou Fuhai.

Zhou Fuhai's phone and computer are in my hands; the contents inside are crucial, all Zhou Family matters, and there are many plans that need to be prepared for implementation.

Mr. Wen, there is something directed at your family,

It looks like the Zhou Family is figuring out how to deal with your Wen Family.

Mr. Wen, what I want to say here is that dealing with the Zhou Family is not just helping me; it's also for the sake of your own family.

After I finished speaking,

Wen Han then asked: "Where are Zhou Fuhai's phone and computer?"

"They're with me, hidden where no one can find them. Mr. Wen, if we can trust each other, I'll hand these things over to you."

"Besides these, what other evidence is there?" Wen Han continued to ask.

"Do you know Shen Honghong?"

"Shen Honghong, isn't she a host?"

"Yes, she is Zhou Fuhai's lover, not only Zhou Fuhai's lover but also Zhou Renfeng's lover. This woman also holds Zhou Renfeng's criminal evidence in her hands."

"This woman is also in my hands." I said.

"What, Shen Honghong is in your hands. My goodness, obtaining her was effortless. Zhao Jianqiang, you know how important what you're saying is."

"We've also been searching for Shen Honghong. Since she left Sijiucheng, she's disappeared; I've always suspected that Zhou Renfeng had her silenced."

"I never expected her to be in your hands—oh, great!" Wen Han got so excited he almost shouted.

This Wen Han is still too young; he shouldn't be so excited.

His excitement shows how important Shen Honghong is.

The importance of the evidence in my hands, as well as the conflict between their Wen Family and the Zhou Family, are all exposed.

We still need to be more steady.

That way, I can easily put forward my own conditions.

I said to Wen Han: "Mr. Wen, you don't know this, but Shen Honghong went to Zaocheng to look for Zhou Fuhai, and I happened to impersonate Zhou Fuhai in the hotel. I also arrested Shen Honghong along the way."

Then I took her away and hid her; I didn't expect this woman to be hiding Zhou Renfeng's secret in her hands.
