Xiao was still asleep when a harsh ringtone rang, and the call was answered in the dark. Before he could complain, a hoarse and choking voice came from the other side of the phone: "My grandfather is dead..."
It's Shang Yao's voice!
Xiao Zheng suddenly heard the news and immediately sat up.
Grandpa is dead
Yan Shichang
Why did he die? Isn’t the old man’s health always in good shape? The last time we met, he even invited me to drink two drinks. Can't see anything unusual at all
"What's going on?" Xiao Zheng's heart sank.
He knew that the old man's death was definitely not natural and there must be some hidden secret.
"It's suicide." Shang Yao's voice trembled slightly. "Died in the small building in the backyard. A knife stabbed into the heart."
Listening to Shang Yao's voice, she still couldn't break free from the bad news.
A cold look flashed across Xiao Zheng's face. suicide? impossible.
Yan Shichang has completely delegated power and left the Yan family completely to Shang Yao. Theoretically, it was impossible for him to have a major conflict with anyone. Even Shang Jingtian was the only one who would hold a grudge against him. Didn’t you also hand over the business to Shang Yao before
At this time, does Shang Jingtian have a reason to do this
After Xiao Zheng straightened his thoughts, he first comforted Shang Yao for a while, and then expressed his intention to rush to Yan's house immediately.
In the past few years, he had several major conflicts with the Yan family. But in the end, under Yan Shichang's adjustment and Shang Yao's guidance, the two parties have entered a harmonious honeymoon period. Whether it is Yan Shichang, Yan Hong, or Shang Yao himself, they are all very close to Xiao Zheng.
So when the Yan family was in such a big situation, Xiao Zheng had to rush there as soon as possible. Whether it's to solve the mystery or to stand up for the Yan family.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Huayin, who didn't sleep early last night, opened her beautiful beautiful eyes, glanced at Xiao Zheng and said, "Is something big going on?"
"Yan Shichang is dead." Xiao Zheng explained while getting dressed. "Shang Yao said it was suicide, but there is probably another reason. I have to go and have a look."
Lin Huayin nodded slightly and said, "Be careful on the road. This is not an easy matter."
"I know." Xiao Zheng nodded, leaned over and kissed Lao Lin on the cheek. "You stayed up until midnight last night and got some sleep."
Lin Huayin didn't say anything, but looked at Xiao Zheng softly. He was told to proceed with caution.
Yan Shichang is dead
suicide
This is indeed unreasonable and the method of death is too cruel.
Plunging a knife into one's heart is definitely not the method a normal person would use to commit suicide. Unless forced.
So who can force Yan Shichang to commit suicide by self-mutilation
The answer quickly emerged in Xiao Zheng's mind.
Zhao family!
As one of the three giants of the year, Yan Shichang is also the only one left in the world.
When Zhao Yin returns to China, who will he look for first
Of course it’s Zhao Yin!
This is the most direct enemy! He is also the enemy who is most likely to make the Zhao family angry!
Maybe the Zhao family can use some means and give them some patience when dealing with the second or even third generation. But facing Yan Shichang, the direct executioner and accomplice. How could the Zhao family have so much patience
Xiao Zheng knew that the Zhao family must have come to the Yan family last night. As for whether it was Autumn Harvest or Zhao Yin, he didn't know.
As soon as the car stopped, Xiao Zheng strode into the Yan family's door. The person waiting at the door was none other than Yan Hong.
As the two walked, Yan Hong explained: "The police have checked the scene. The old man died at about 1 a.m. last night. The cause of death was severe heart trauma and excessive blood loss. As for the murderer - there is no answer yet. There was no fight at the scene. Mark of."
"No other fingerprints were left?" Xiao Zheng asked with a frown.
With today's technology, as long as someone appears in Yan Shichang's study. You will definitely be able to find clues. Unless someone deliberately concealed it. Or in other words - the higher-ups simply don’t want to investigate this matter thoroughly!
Of course, the most important point is that the police can basically conclude that Yan Shichang did not commit suicide, but stabbed his own heart with a knife and died!
The cause of death of the deceased has been determined. Whether there are other people present or not is less important.
What's more, the Yan family also made it clear that they would leave the matter at this point and did not want to investigate further.
The person who expressed his attitude was none other than Shang Yao.
The Yan family responded very quickly to the funeral arrangements. Just a few hours later, the old man was lying peacefully in the coffin. The spiritual platform has also been built. As if specially trained. It seems like I often take care of funeral arrangements...
Xiao met Shang Yao in the reception room of the side hall.
She was well-dressed, her clothes were gray in color, and she looked very haggard. Those beautiful eyes were also red and swollen from crying. It seemed as if he was suddenly struck down by Yan Shichang's death.
Xiao Zheng sighed softly in his heart, walked over slowly and said: "Don't be too sad. The old man is gone, maybe he just hopes that you can live well."
After listening to Xiao Zheng's words, Shang Yao frowned deeply, raised his eyes and asked, "What did Boss Xiao guess?"
"I only believe that no matter how difficult it is, the old man will never end his life without reason. There must be a reason for him to do so." Xiao Zheng pursed his lips and said.
As for the specific reason, Xiao Zheng has no idea.
Shang Yao took a deep breath, and then said in a serious tone: "Actually, as early as a week ago, grandpa said some inexplicable words. It seemed that he was preparing for his own funeral."
After a brief pause, Shang Yao blamed himself: "Why didn't I notice it in the first place?"
Xiao Zheng gave Shang Yao a cup of hot tea: "The old man has already made a decision. Even if you can notice it, it doesn't make any sense."
After a pause, Xiao Zheng narrowed his eyes and said, "I believe that the old man must have made an agreement with those people. If he leaves, he can exchange for your peace."
"Grandpa is so confused!" Shang Yao bit her lip and said. "How will those people let our Yan family go?"
When Xiao Zheng heard this, his mood was very complicated.
yes.
How could the Zhao family let the Yan family go
But as far as Xiao Zheng knew about the Zhao family. If they go all out, even a master-level expert like Bai Wuxia may not be able to withstand it.
So, the old man's compromise must be to ask the Zhao family not to kill the descendants of the Yan family
You can compete in the market, and you can even make the Yan family fall apart, but please don't - eradicate the roots!
It is impossible for Yan Shichang not to understand how powerful the Zhao family is.
So he used his own life to exchange for the life safety of the descendants of the Yan family.
Otherwise, in front of the powerful Zhao family, the Yan family's martial arts background may not be enough for the Zhao family to endure all night!
The night sky outside the window seemed to be splashed with ink.
The rising sun that was supposed to appear for a long time refused to appear.
Xiao Zheng knew that Yan Shichang was just the beginning, and the real competition was already on the way!
