Chapter 78: The Truth
After Du Manlin returned home from Bishui Cliff, she immediately held a family meeting. Attending the meeting were Kang Jiawei's brother, sister-in-law, sister and brothers-in-law.
Du Manlin told everyone about Kang Jiawei's situation from the beginning, and everyone was extremely surprised.
Kang Jiaying screamed: "Let's go, what kind of meeting are we going to have? Just go and pick up my brother."
Kang Jiazheng stopped him: "What are you in a hurry? It's not that simple. I think that first, we must find out who is behind this matter and get this person to change his mind, so that Jiawei can successfully get out of Bishui Cliff; secondly, we must get Jiawei to
I agree. I think Jiawei was able to hide in the cave for so long mainly because of the tacit cooperation between himself and the manipulator behind the scenes. How the third couple Manlin found out about Jiawei must be kept strictly confidential, otherwise it will be exposed to those who take care of Jiawei.
Mother and daughter bring trouble."
Zheng Xiaoya said: "Second brother, you worry too much. I think the safest way is to call the police immediately and let the police handle it."
Kang Jiaqi raised her eyebrows: "No, when Jiawei just disappeared, the police didn't search the Bishui Cliff, but they didn't even find a person. I'm worried that when the police were called, the police didn't arrive, but the people moved.
Where can you find it? So I agree to do what the second brother said."
Zheng Xiaoya was unhappy, she pursed her lips and made a face at Kang Jiaqi.
Kang Jiazheng glanced at everyone and asked if they had any other opinions. Everyone said no. Finally, everyone looked at Du Manlin.
Du Manlin's expression was calm and confident.
Zheng Xiaoya said: "Manlin, why don't you leave the task of finding the man behind the scenes to me? I know who to start with."
Kang Jiaying said: "I'll go find my brother and tell him to go home quickly."
Du Manlin raised her hand to stop: "Xiaoya, Jiaying, you must not mess around. I think the second brother has considered the problem very carefully, and I completely agree. However, I think it is inappropriate for any of you to interfere in this matter, so your mission
Just keep it secret and keep it confidential, and I will do the rest."
The next day, Du Manlin booked a private room at Wangjiang Tea House, the most upscale restaurant in Tucheng. She wanted to meet someone, and this person was Li Shijing.
It took Li Shijing less than five minutes from receiving Du Manlin's call to arriving at Wangjiang Teahouse. The speed really surprised Du Manlin.
Du Manlin stood up to greet her: "Mr. Li, take a plane or a high-speed train?"
The language was humorous, which made Li Shijing smack his lips: "Tsk, tsk, Fourth Sister-in-law, you are very humorous today."
"Really? When did you put oil on your lips and learn to flatter others?"
"I dare not, I am telling the truth."
"Tell the truth, and I'll give you a focus interview."
"It seems that I am the interviewee?"
"Of course, please sit down and let's talk slowly."
Du Manlin handed the brewed tea to Li Shijing.
Li Shijing tasted several sips and smacked his tongue: "Good tea, Fourth Sister-in-law, I know your drunkard's intention is not to drink, but to have other purposes. Tell me, why did you call me here?"
Du Manlin also took a sip of tea and said cheerfully: "I said today's program is a focus interview. The issues involved may be sharp, but the principle is to speak with facts."
Li Shijing nodded: "I swear to speak with facts and conscience."
Du Manlin poured him tea again, but unexpectedly the tea splashed on Li Shijing's sleeve. She quickly took out her hand and patted it for him. The gentle movement made him nervous and breathless, his heart beat faster, and there was a circle on his face.
The blush of peach petals.
"Fourth sister-in-law, you want to ask about fourth brother, right?" Li Shijing said with a slightly nervous tone, "I heard that you found fourth brother in Bishui Cliff!"
Du Manlin was suspicious: "Who told you?"
"Don't worry about it. If you don't treat me as a brother, of course someone will treat me as a brother. She has already asked all the questions you want to ask, but I didn't give any answers."
"Is it Xiaoya?"
Li Shijing was silent for a while and nodded: "That's right. I didn't answer her because I resented her caring about our affairs. But I want to answer the questions she raised."
Du Manlin smiled implicitly: "Okay! I'm all ears."
Li Shijing said: "Sister-in-law Xiaoya asked me three questions. The first question, she asked me, am I waiting for the opportunity to marry you? How to put it, speaking from the bottom of my heart, I have this meaning, because I have always
There is no way to erase my love for you from the depths of my heart. The second question she asked me was, did I mobilize my fourth brother to leave you? I can swear to God, I never thought of breaking up your loving couple.
Mandarin duck, but I know that there is a person who once hurt the fourth brother. Shortly after being hurt by him, the fourth brother disappeared. This person is Scorpion. The third question, she asked me, is the person behind the disappearance of the fourth brother?
My father? This question shocked me so much. I wasn’t sure because I really couldn’t find a reasonable purpose for my father to do this. But I didn’t dare to deny it, because my father knew very well that I was still unmarried.
Because you are the only one I love, letting Fourth Brother leave is tantamount to creating opportunities for me."
Du Manlin glared at him and sneered: "That's quite straightforward. For this reason, I should say 'thank you' to you. Since you speak with facts, I will also speak with facts. No one of us owes anything."
Who. First, we can only be friends and brothers, not husband and wife; Second, if we have to be husband and wife, it can only be a fake couple, and we can never be a real husband and wife; Third, Jiawei is missing
It is indeed related to Scorpion, but what Scorpion did was entirely for you, Mr. Li."
Li Shijing blinked in confusion: "I have no idea what Scorpion did!"
"Do you really think this is just the fault of Scorpion? Let me tell you, Scorpion is just an errand boy, and the one who supports him is a big shot."
"who?"
"Your father Li Shimao and Li Dong."
"He? Why are you so sure it's him?"
Du Manlin took out an envelope from her bag, and took out a piece of letter paper from the envelope and gave it to Li Shijing: "I don't know who wrote this letter, but someone secretly stuffed it into my office. It records that your father will
Jiawei hid the specific circumstances of the Immortal Cave in Bishui Cliff, and swore a poisonous oath to ensure the authenticity of the stated circumstances."
Li Shijing read the letter word for word from beginning to end and wondered: "What is he trying to do?"
"What is he trying to do? Isn't it clear? Poor parents in the world. What he wants is for you to get married as soon as possible with the woman you love so much."
Li Shijing was stunned, hemming and hawing, and said to himself: "I'm stupid, I didn't expect that my dad is stupider than me. Doesn't this illegally restrict personal freedom and interfere with other people's marriages and families? Dad, just wait for a lawsuit!"
