“I…” Madam Zhu was still debating whether or not to say it. Her eyes flickered.
Zhu Pengda took a deep breath and reprimanded her sternly, “Hurry up and say it! If you say it now, I can still help you think of a way to remedy this. If you don’t say it, you can wait for the Zhu family to be finished with you.”
Madam Zhu looked up in disbelief, but she felt that the situation seemed serious when she saw her husband’s ashen face looking at her with a solemn expression.
“I… I don’t know who sent me a message. The message told me that if I want to avenge Hao’er, I can transfer 500,000 yuan into the account he gave me. After I transfer the money, they will naturally teach Qiao Nian a lesson.”
Madam Zhu found her phone and handed it to him so that he could see it for himself. Then, she stammered. “Before you came back, another person I didn’t know came to the house to deliver a package to me. He left after handing it over to me.”
Zhu Pengda quickly asked her, “Where’s the delivery? Bring it to me.”
Madam Zhu did not dare delay. She found the box that the ‘delivery man’ had given her and handed it to her husband.
Zhu Pengda saw that the package had not been opened, and his expression turned grave. He shook the box. It was light, as if it did not contain anything.
His expression was grim as he tore open the plastic and opened the carton. There were only a few sheets of paper inside.
He frowned. He did not understand why the other party specially came to deliver this.
His heart sank when he read the paper.
“What does it say?” Madam Zhu leaned forward to read it.
Only the first sheet of paper was printed with the transfer records for her account.
On another sheet was printed the driver’s late-stage cancer examination sheet.
The list was very clear. The big truck driver was already in the late stages of liver cancer and would not live for more than a few days.
Madam Zhu still didn’t understand why he had given her these two things. “What does this mean? Why did they give me this?”
“Do what?” Zhu Pengda was confused. She was really stupid. He looked at her in a daze, seemingly speechless. “Don’t you know why they gave you this?”
Madam Zhu shook her head. “I don’t know.”
Zhu Pengda was speechless.
He crumpled the two pieces of paper and threw them into the trash can angrily. His temples kept throbbing. He turned around and gritted his teeth. “I’m telling you that our family will definitely take the blame!”
Madam Zhu still looked confused. She said, “Hubby, it’s… it’s not that serious, right?”
There was some silence.
What did she think!
Did she think that this matter could be resolved!
Zhu Pengda reacted faster. He knew that his priority was to find out who had caused the trouble, not to lower himself to the level of a woman.
He immediately called someone he knew from the technical department. After the call, he said to Madam Zhu, “Give me your phone.”
Madam Zhu quickly picked up the phone on the table.
Zhu Pengda turned it on. He wanted to find the message he had read earlier.
Who would have thought that after he’d tried for a long time, the phone screen would go black?
He held the phone and asked her, “Your phone is not charged?”
Madam Zhu took it from him and tried again. Still unable to turn it on, she said in confusion, “Eh, why can’t I turn it on?”
