Zhou Qiong didn't call He Lan until 10:30.

It's just that the phone rang for a long time before being connected, and He Lan's voice was buzzing, as if he had been crying.

Zhou Qiong thought to himself, is there really something wrong with Fu Yao?On the surface, she asked with concern: "Sister Lan, is Yaoyao okay, she left just like that yesterday, it's quite worrying."

He Lan looked at her unconscious daughter on the bed. There were welts all over her face, body, and back of her hands. Although the doctor had already used medicine, the welts as wide as a thumb would leave scars no matter how well the wound healed.

She couldn't help sobbing, "Yaoyao is fine, don't worry, I... cough cough... I have a cold, and my voice sounds a little hoarse."

Zhou Qiong said clearly: "That's good. When we are free, let's go to Yuan'an Temple and find the master to calculate the wedding date of Yaoyao and Zhuang Yan."

He Lan smiled stiffly, "...I...ok...some other day..."

Zhou Qiong hung up the phone at the right time, and then called Wei Hong with a solemn expression.

Wei Hong just took Zhuang Yan to walk around and greeted various departments. At this time, he was in the office giving Zhuang Yan orders to work.

Seeing his wife's phone call, he didn't avoid suspicion and directly connected.

"Old Wei, I think Fu Yao's affairs are serious. When I called He Lan just now, she was very perfunctory, and her voice sounded like she was crying."

Wei Hong frowned, glanced at Zhuang Yan, and said, "I see."

After hanging up the phone, he said to Zhuang Yan: "Just do as you said, and the supervision work of the law enforcement department will start first."

Zhuang Yan got up and left.

Wei Hong waited for the door to close before calling his assistant in, and gave him such instructions.

......

Fu Family Courtyard.

Fu Yao, who fainted from excessive fright, finally woke up. She looked at her mother beside the bed with a dull expression.

He Lan sighed, and suddenly saw her daughter opened her eyes, and hurriedly asked, "Yaoyao, do you want some water? Do you want something to eat?"

Fu Yao stared at the ceiling in a daze, and after a while, she caressed her face in a vain manner. The pain was burning, and she saw the welt marks on the back of her hand, tears of hatred kept rolling.

"Didn't you say you wanted to beat me to death? Why didn't you kill me?" She snapped.

He Lan cried anxiously, "You child, you still dare to talk back. How could you do such a thing? What did Shen Xia say to you? Why are you so confused."

Fu Yao gritted her teeth and said, "That bitch hooked up with Zhuang Yan and cheated him of his money. I just wanted to scare her, and she was pretty good, but instead I was beaten like this. Am I Fu Beishan's own child?" of."

He Lan was terrified, and slapped her legs anxiously, "You're going to stun your mother to death, dare to say such a thing, if your father hears it, why don't you step down?"

Fu Yao gritted her teeth with hatred.

He Lan belched again and again, her face full of bitterness.

"Ma'am, someone gave Second Miss a gift, do you want to see it now?" Housekeeper knocked on the door holding a box.

He Lan stood up puzzled and walked out.

"Who sent it?" She unpacked the outer package, and inside was a very delicate jewelry box.

"It was sent by Mr. Zhuang."

He Lan's face froze, holding the gift to refuse it or accept it, and finally he could only say: "Put it away first."

Fu Yao in the room immediately shouted excitedly after hearing it: "A gift from Zhuang Yan? Bring it in for me."

He Lan hesitated for a moment, then went into the house with the box.

What Zhuang Yan gave was a very delicate and beautiful necklace, which even included a word of praise written by him.

Fu Yao even forgot the pain on her body, holding the necklace she had to ask He Lan to put it on for her.

He Lan couldn't help but follow what she said.

The more Fu Yao watched, the happier she became, "Mom, Zhuang Yan is really going to marry me. I can't believe it. This is not a dream. Such a handsome man will soon become my husband. Choose a near wedding date for me. The sooner the better."

But He Lan couldn't speak, and finally just comforted: "You rest first, I'll get you something to eat."

Coming to the study, He Lan knocked on the door and said: "Just now Zhuang Yan gave a gift, he really wants to marry Yaoyao..."

Immediately there was a roar from inside the house, "You are still getting married, that bastard will kill the whole family."

He Lan stood silently for a while, then turned and left.

......

Wei Hong received a call from Fu Beishan in the afternoon. The latter's tone sounded like he had suddenly aged a lot.

"Old Wei, let's pretend that the marriage between Fu Yao and Zhuang Yan has never been mentioned. We are at odds with each other. Don't worry, even if he is not in-law, I will help him like a son."

Wei Hong subconsciously felt that he couldn't ask the reason, and guessed that it might have something to do with Fu Yao's anomaly yesterday, but it was so big that it would affect the marriage, and he also felt a little uneasy.

"Okay, let's not talk about these rumors, anyway, I only met a few times, and I didn't make it public."

"Then you can tell Zhuang Yan for me. In addition, he gave Fu Yao a necklace in the morning, and I asked someone to return it. There is no place for my old face, so you can tell it for me."

Wei Hong responded, just when the assistant knocked on the door and came in, he hung up the phone.

The assistant handed over a stack of documents, "This is all the information I found, it's a bit...shocking, you have to be mentally prepared."

Wei Hong frowned, opened the file, and after a while, stared at the file, speechless.

The assistant continued: "Fortunately, Lawyer Ji Xiao only injured his leg. After two months of confinement, there should be no sequelae. But now she is missing, and Zhuang Jian has been looking for her in secret."

Wei Hong irritatedly dropped the documents at hand, "Zhuang Yan still doesn't know about this?"

"As far as I know, he and Lawyer Ji Xiao thought it was bad luck that they bumped into each other."

Wei Hong walked back and forth several times, "No wonder Fu Beishan wants to cancel the engagement, he probably found out too."

"I also secretly found out that there was a lot of noise in the Fu family compound in the morning."

Wei Hong frowned, shook his legs and thought for a long time before saying, "Go and call Zhuang Yan."

Not long after, Zhuang Yan opened the door and walked into the office.

Wei Hong coughed guiltily, "There is one thing, after much deliberation, I really can't hide it from you. The Fu family canceled the engagement. You can see for yourself the specific reason."

He handed a stack of documents to Zhuang Yan.

"Cancel? Do you have any dissatisfaction with me?" Zhuang Yan picked up the file in confusion.

Wei Hong felt more and more ashamed, this marriage was what he wanted to match with all his heart, but Fu Yao turned out to be a poisonous worm, and for doing such a thing, let alone Fu Beishan, he was ashamed as an introducer.

Seeing that Zhuang Yan's face was getting more and more ugly, Wei Hong took the lead and said, "I also have my problem with this matter. Although Fu Beishan has a bad temper, he is still upright. I thought his daughter would be just as good, but I didn't expect to do such a thing. sort of thing."

Zhuang Yan had a cold face, and after a while, he asked: "So what will they do? No matter what the relationship between the victim and me is, it is not the reason for their harm. Moreover, the harm caused to the victim will accompany him for life. .”

Wei Hong had nothing to say, he could only say: "Don't worry, we will definitely give her justice."

Zhuang Yan's face became colder and colder, "Why?"

Wei Hong was questioned.

He really didn't know how to promise what Fu Yao had committed, so he asked back, "What do you think?"

Zhuang Yan raised her eyes slightly, "Then I will make a request for her, and I hope the teacher can agree."
