Chapter 1096: The Outcome Will Be Even More Miserable Than Hers!

After the Five-Person Group Meeting ended.

The working group took action immediately.

However, there was a variable in the situation.

Tang Ye returned to his office, and the landline began to ring.

Zhao Shuli called, his tone muffled, "Mao Yu is not in his office; he sensed something was wrong and fled immediately."

Tang Ye frowned!

Mao Yu was indeed very cunning.

Tang Ye arrived at Mao Yu's office.

There were many books on Mao Yu's bookshelf, showing signs of frequent reading.

Zhao Shuli said coldly, "I didn't expect Mao Yu to have a hobby of reading novels."

"Mao Yu must have caught wind of the situation and prepared to run."

Zhao Shuli nodded slightly, "I have already called Zheng Shaokang to find his whereabouts as soon as possible."

Tang Ye took out a book and flipped through a few pages.

He suddenly made a discovery!

The name of a female character in this book was actually somewhat familiar.

At this moment, Mao Yu was driving a Toyota Prado, speeding along the road.

Countless thoughts swirled in his mind at this moment.

In the eyes of others, what kind of evaluation did he have for his life?

Mao Yu received a call from Li Haizao.

"The police suddenly arrived and surrounded the company. I'm so scared right now! What should I do!"

"Haizao, I have some business and need to leave Yechuan."

Ever since Li Haizao learned that Chen Shunfei had been arrested, she had been restless.

Now that Mao Yu was also leaving Yechuan, it made Li Haizao sense that something was wrong.

She knew about the connection between Chen Shunfei and Mao Yu.

Although Mao Yu was deeply affectionate and doted on her in every way, it could not change the fact that she was a tool for Chen Shunfei to curry favor with Mao Yu!

"Can you take me with you?"

"I'm sorry, I can't take you with me. In the bedroom closet, there is a hidden compartment with a safe; the password is my birthday. There is cash and a bank card inside; this is what I'm leaving for you."

"You can't leave me behind! I'm carrying your baby."

When Mao Yu heard this news, he was not surprised; he had been with her for a while and had never used any protective measures.

Li Haizao was young and in good health, so it was reasonable that she was pregnant.

"Although I really want you to give birth to this child, I have encountered some problems now. Go to the hospital and get rid of the child; I've let you down. I'm driving, I'll contact you again once I've stabilized."

A busy signal came from the phone.

Li Haizao's tears could not stop falling.

She knew Mao Yu could not be considered a good person.

However, to her, he was refined, gentle, considerate, and took good care of her.

The office door was pushed open heavily.

A police officer walked in and looked Li Haizao up and down, "Are you Li Haizao?"

"Yes!" Li Haizao stood up trembling, her breathing rapid, looking as if she might faint at any moment.

"There is a case that requires your assistance in the investigation; please come with us." A policewoman walked up and grabbed Li Haizao's arm.

Li Haizao lowered her head and followed the police out of the office.

Those gossiping whispers reached her ears, making her feel ashamed to show her face.

"Chen Shunfei and Cheng Xin were caught, so it's finally Li Haizao's turn now."

"I've long been annoyed with Li Haizao. I heard she had a boyfriend but went behind his back to be with a high-ranking leader."

"This leader was too high-profile; I've seen them several times, with car pick-ups and drop-offs. Well, now they've finally been caught."

"A few colleagues were fired just for gossiping about it before. Now it's finally retribution!"

"Sigh, the company has become like this now; I wonder what will happen next?"

"Why worry! With such a large project placed here, someone will definitely come to take it over."

"That's right, the Government definitely won't ignore us."

Tang Ye saw Li Haizao in the Interrogation Room.

Her long hair draped over her shoulders, her face was delicate, her eyebrows were light, and her eyes held panic, giving one a sense of pity.

"My name is Tang Ye, and I am the Acting County Magistrate of Yechuan County."

Li Haizao had heard the name Tang Ye from Mao Yu.

Whenever Mao Yu mentioned this name, he would grit his teeth and even curse with crude and vicious profanities.

Li Haizao had assumed that Tang Ye would be like Mao Yu—a middle-aged man with a potbelly and thinning hair.

She had not expected that Tang Ye looked very young, only a few years older than herself.

"County Magistrate Tang, hello."

Tang Ye took out several photos, "The people in these photos are you and Mao Yu, right?"

Li Haizao bit her lip, "Yes!"

Tang Ye sighed, "Mao Yu is suspected of violating discipline and the law. You are in a romantic relationship with Mao Yu; I hope you will actively and voluntarily provide clues to strive for a lighter punishment."

Li Haizao shook her head, "I, I, I don't know anything!"

Tang Ye said in a deep voice, "According to our investigation, you and Mao Yu have already developed a cohabiting relationship.

You went to the hospital yesterday, and the hospital results show that you are pregnant.

You should know in your heart whose child it is."

Li Haizao bit her lip and remained silent.

Tang Ye took out a transfer record, "According to the financial staff's confession, this transfer was requested by Chen Shunfei to be sent to you. Having taken the money, you are a beneficiary of bribery, and you have already broken the law."

Li Haizao defended herself in a panic, "This, this is something I borrowed from the company; I will definitely pay it back later."

Tang Ye sighed,

and took out the novel that had been seized from Mao Yu's office,

pushing it in front of Li Haizao.

"This is a novel seized from Mao Yu's office. He read it very seriously and carefully, and even made marks. I think you will have some feelings after reading it."

Li Haizao took the novel in confusion, flipped to one of the pages, and was instantly drawn in by the text inside.

"Whether you take me as an older brother or an uncle, I don't even care if you take me as a grandfather.

But you must believe me, there is no problem that cannot be discussed.

Haizao's tears had already fallen, but because of his mention of 'grandfather,' she broke into a smile through her tears, though it was an ugly smile; she wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, turned her head away, and said nothing.

Haizao doesn't look good when she cries.

A smiling Haizao is more beautiful.

How about this, wait until I finish the things at hand, and I will go out for a stroll with you, alright?"

Li Haizao's first reaction was, why is this passage of text so familiar?

Immediately, her eyes revealed realization, surprise, and shock!

Mao Yu had once said these exact words to her!!!

Tang Ye observed Li Haizao's reaction and continued,

"Does it feel like you've seen it before? You actually have the same name as the character in this book."

Li Haizao bit her lip and said, "This is just a coincidence!"

Tang Ye shook his head.

"Don't deceive yourself; this is not a coincidence! The story between you and him is actually just a game he designed based on this novel.

In the novel, the girl named Haizao ends up in a miserable state: she breaks up with her boyfriend, and after getting pregnant, she suffers a miscarriage due to an accident, which leads to lifelong infertility, and she eventually ends up alone in a foreign land.

If you still insist on having fantasies about him, your end will be even more miserable than hers!"

Li Haizao subconsciously looked down at her stomach and couldn't help but tremble, trying to convince herself! "No, you must be lying to me! He has feelings for me!"

Tang Ye tried to change his angle and advised her with a sincere attitude,

"Actually, you are a victim of his desire to satisfy his power.

I believe you are very smart; only by cooperating with our investigation can you protect yourself to the greatest extent."
