At this moment, there were no customers in the jewelry store. All the staff leaned against the counter, watching from a distance.
They had initially thought it was just an ordinary quarrel, but unexpectedly, they suddenly heard the words “murder”!
Everyone perked up!
They stared at Zhao Shufeng in shock!
This guy, who always felt superior because he was a local and often looked down on them as outsiders, had actually killed someone?
They thought he was just a bit arrogant at most, but they never imagined he could be so ruthless!
As they watched Zhao Shufeng, they slowly gathered around, wanting to hear more clearly.
Zhao Shufeng was also taken aback.
He looked Su Jiaojiao up and down, then sneered, “Are you crazy? How would I not know if I’ve killed someone? If you really have evidence that I’ve murdered someone, let’s go to the police station right now!”
He pointed outside, “Do you dare?”
Seeing how calm and unflinching he was, everyone began to doubt Su Jiaojiao.
Could this person really be talking nonsense?
Only the old lady firmly believed Su Jiaojiao’s words!
This was a true master!
Since she could tell that her grandson had faced a calamity yesterday, she must also be able to see that Zhao Shufeng had killed someone!
Su Jiaojiao didn’t care whether others trusted or doubted her. She simply looked at Zhao Shufeng with indifference.
She said, “The person you killed isn’t dead yet, but it won’t be long.”
Zhao Shufeng burst into laughter, “You’re really treating us like fools! First, you say I killed someone, then you say I didn’t kill them. I…”
Just as he said this, he seemed to remember something, and his voice abruptly stopped.
A flicker of panic flashed in his eyes, though he quickly regained his composure. Still, this momentary abnormality didn’t escape everyone’s notice.
Su Jiaojiao glanced at him, “Remember now? Wearing a mask and living with your wife for half a year, have you almost forgotten that her life is slipping away day by day because of you?”
Zhao Shufeng had just steadied himself when he suddenly heard Su Jiaojiao’s words!
He was so shocked that he staggered backward, staring at Su Jiaojiao in disbelief!
This matter was supposed to be known only to him!
How could she possibly know?
Seeing his reaction, the onlookers grew serious!
It seemed what this lady said was true!
Zhao Shufeng really was plotting to harm his wife’s life!
The thought of his wife sharing a bed every night with someone who wanted to kill her, completely unaware, sent chills down their spines!
What could be more terrifying than the person you love secretly plotting against you?
He treats you with utmost tenderness and affection, but while you sleep, he stares at you with murderous intent right beside your pillow. Just thinking about it was horrifying!
Someone quickly asked Su Jiaojiao, “Miss, you said you have evidence of Zhao Shufeng harming someone. Can I call the police now? Such a malicious person should be arrested and locked up!”
“No need to call the police.”
Su Jiaojiao glanced sideways at the onlookers and shook her head, “I do have evidence that he is harming his wife’s life. However, the police might not be able to convict him.”
Everyone was confused.
If there was evidence that he was killing someone, why couldn’t he be convicted?
How exactly was he killing someone?
Su Jiaojiao looked at Zhao Shufeng, whose face had turned deathly pale.”Your wife was someone you met through a matchmaking arrangement. You never truly loved her; you only decided to marry her because her deceased parents left her several valuable properties.”
“However, just before your wedding, she was involved in a car accident that left her completely blind.”
“You never loved her to begin with, and now that she was blind, you felt that even with those properties, her disability made her a burden. You didn’t want to be tied down to a blind woman for the rest of your life, so you planned to break up with her.”
“But during one of your visits to the hospital, her attending physician approached you.”
“The doctor informed you that a lesion had been discovered in her liver. After consultations, it was confirmed as early-stage liver cancer, and surgery was recommended as soon as possible.”
“She was already blind and had no parents, so all hospital matters were handled by you, her fiancé. The contact number left with the hospital was yours. Even if you kept her early-stage liver cancer a secret, no one would ever know.”
“That’s when a terrible idea took root in your mind.”
“Marrying a blind woman would burden you for life, but what if this blind woman died from late-stage liver cancer within two or three years of marriage?”
“She would only hold you back for a couple of years. Once she died, you could inherit her properties worth millions and use that money to marry a beautiful woman. How convenient would that be?”
“So, you asked the doctor to keep the liver cancer diagnosis a secret, claiming you were afraid she couldn’t handle the shock and wanted to tell her yourself.”
“Then you told the doctor you didn’t want the surgery done at that hospital. You planned to take her abroad for the operation while also seeking treatment for her eyes. After that, you arranged for her discharge.”
“But the doctor had no idea that you completely concealed the liver cancer diagnosis from your wife. You married her while she was blind, becoming the rightful heir to her estate.”
By the time Su Jiaojiao finished speaking, Zhao Shufeng had staggered backward, leaning against the glass counter in terror!
He looked at Su Jiaojiao as if she were a devil!
How could she possibly know these things? Only he was supposed to know!
Even his wife’s attending physician didn’t know she still hadn’t undergone surgery. When the doctor called last time to ask about her condition, he had brushed it off!
But how did this woman find out?
Could she really be a master who could see through all causes and consequences?
No…
Beads of sweat covered his forehead. He glanced around in panic, then turned to flee the shop!
“Stop!”
Among the staff, Zhao Shufeng wasn’t the only man—there were three others.
They immediately rushed forward, grabbing him in anger!
Once they had hold of him, one of the hot-tempered staff members couldn’t restrain himself and punched Zhao Shufeng hard in the face!
“You heartless monster!”
“For a few million, you’d actually kill your own wife!”
“With early-stage liver cancer, she could still live for decades after surgery. But you deliberately planned to let it progress to late-stage cancer, letting her die. How could you be so cruel?”
The other female staff members watching also wished they could step forward and punch him a few times!
She was already pitiful enough being blind, yet he deceived and harmed her. He was nothing but scum!
Someone angrily stepped forward, trying to take Zhao Shufeng’s phone to call his wife.
How could Zhao Shufeng dare let his wife find out about this?He was so frightened that he immediately hurled his phone away, smashing it to pieces!
Seeing the shattered phone, everyone was nearly driven mad by his shamelessness!
“Do you think that by not cooperating, we won’t be able to contact your wife?”
Someone angrily pointed at him, “Although we don’t know your home address, the company kept your information when you joined!”
After saying this, she took out her phone and called the store manager.
“Hello, Manager, we’d like to check Zhao Shufeng’s home address. His wife might be in danger from him, and we must save her…”
