1169 Captured
“Xiao He, when are you going to bring that kid Deng Fan home for us to take a look?” Liu Fen asked with a gossipy look.
“Second Aunt-in-law! We’re just ordinary friends! Don’t misunderstand!” Xia He said as she blushed.
Xu Lan and Liu Fen looked down and smiled to themselves. Everyone could tell what was going on. Xia He was the only one who did not know!
“Or why don’t you consider Luo Yu? I think this young man is not bad. He can be considered to have grown up alongside all of you and has worked hard for the Xia family for so many years. He’s also very nice to you. Won’t you think about it?” Liu Fen said.
“What’s there to consider! Luo Yu is like my older brother! How can I fall for him! Stop joking.” After saying that, Xia He muttered, “Deng Fan would be a better suggestion than him…”
“Look! Good grief. Second Aunt-in-law won’t nag at you anymore. It’s good as long as you have a plan in mind.” Liu Fen smiled in satisfaction.
Everyone waited quietly for a week. Cheng Gu was finally captured and the truth was out. The Xia family could finally heave a sigh of relief.
It was Xia Zhe who personally led a team to capture Cheng Gu. After a week of investigation and searches, they finally found Cheng Gu’s lair and captured all of them in one fell swoop. At the same time, they also rescued many kidnapped women, the majority of whom were captured by the gang for pleasure.
Some of them were already delirious, while others had densely packed needle marks on their arms and thighs. It was simply inhumane. By the time these women were discovered, they had been there for a long time. These women were locked up in a container and it was so crowded and small inside that they could not even breathe properly. They even had to live, eat and do their toileting inside the same place. It was a very tragic sight.
Xia Zhe went to the interrogation room in the prison with a solemn expression. He sat on a chair and quietly looked at Cheng Gu, who was behind the metal bars. Cheng Gu had been smiling happily in a carefree manner, as if being caught meant nothing to him.
“How can you be alive! Shouldn’t you be dead? Why are you still alive! You clearly…” Cheng Gu said in shock.
“Sorry to disappoint you, but I’m actually not dead. I jumped out of the car before the explosion. It’s so regrettable that your plan failed,” Xia Zhe said.
Cheng Gu was only shocked for a moment before he said smugly, “Hmph, so what if you’re not dead? Didn’t your family die at my hands? Your wife and children are either dead or weakened. What’s the point of living on your own? I’m guessing you must hate me very much now?”
“There’s a high chance that you’ll be sentenced to death. Most of your brothers will also die together with you. All your goods have also been confiscated,” Xia Zhe said calmly.
Cheng Gu did not believe what Xia Zhe said. Qiao Mei was dead and he had caused Xia Zhe’s two children to be born weak. Xia He had also lost her job and Tan Jing probably would not be able to survive. As for Xia Wen, he was probably crying in some corner!
He had caused the Xia family to be in such a miserable state, yet Xia Zhe did not hate him at all. How was this possible?
“Sorry to disappoint you. My wife and children are fine and my family is doing well,” Xia Zhe said. He knew what Cheng Gu was thinking and feeling smug about.
He Ning was right. Destroying a person meant destroying the thing that the person cherished the most. Death did not cause the most pain. The most cruel thing was to torture someone’s mind and soul.
That was why everyone was so afraid of He Ning. He was an expert in this subject.
“Impossible! How is this possible! I clearly made all the arrangements! You must be lying to me!” Cheng Gu smacked the table and shouted furiously.
The prison guard immediately pressed Cheng Gu down on the table and restrained his hands as he scolded, “Be quiet! Behave yourself!”
“I’m not lying to you and I don’t have any desire to lie to you. I do hate you for hurting my family, but you have nothing left now. What can I take away from you? You don’t seem to have anything valuable for me to take away. You should spend your last few days here alone.” After saying that, Xia Zhe left the interrogation room. Before he left, he even turned around and smiled at Cheng Gu.
Xia Zhe stood under the sunlight and smiled disdainfully at Cheng Gu with his back against the light. This action was like an arrow piercing through Cheng Gu’s heart. At the same time, it made Cheng Gu completely understand that he had really lost this time. He was completely defeated.
