Chapter 2688: Your Husband’s Clinic Is Near That Coffee Shop
Ning Shu inwardly suspected Cheng Fei, but she couldn’t outrightly accuse him. “Li Qiang is, at most, only an executor. The person who instigated him to commit a crime is the mastermind here. I suspect this person holds some grudge against my father and had just picked out Li Qiang to use him to get their revenge.
“I think you should start your investigation around this coffee shop.
“People who are far away from the coffee shop wouldn’t go all the way there just to drink coffee. The culprit is most likely someone from its vicinity.”
The policeman nodded. “We have sent officers to watch around the coffee shop. You can rest assured about that.”
Ning Shu nodded back.
The policeman thought about it, then asked Ning Shu, “Your husband’s clinic is near that coffee shop. Do you think…?”
Ning Shu raised her eyebrows. Was the police suspicious of Cheng Fei already?
Ning Shu expressed: Your deducing skill is quite great!
Ning Shu shook her head. “My husband’s clinic is indeed near the coffee shop, but he’s definitely not the culprit.”
“We think this is a crime committed by nonstrangers.
“Do you still want us to continue investigating this matter?” the policeman asked.
Ning Shu bit her lip. She had a conflicted expression on her face. Finally, she gave the policeman a firm nod. “Since this case concerns my father’s safety, I definitely want it to be investigated thoroughly.
“However, my husband is definitely not the culprit. He’s always been very filial and treated my parents as his own parents. He definitely didn’t do this.
“Even though we’re about to get divorced, he still treats my family very well.”
“If I may ask… you’re about to get divorced?” the policeman asked.
Ning Shu nodded. “We are.”
“Then, may I know the reason for the divorce?” the policeman asked again as he recorded Ning Shu’s answers in his notebook.
“It’s…” Ning Shu hesitated to answer him.
“Please tell us the truth. It might help with the case,” the policeman said to encourage Ning Shu.
With a helpless expression, Ning Shu told the police about how Cheng Fei installed cameras at their home and sewed a tracker into her wound.
The policeman’s face was solemn as he asked, “Why did he do that?”
Ning Shu sighed again. She told him her husband believed that she had a mental illness.
After getting some information from Ning Shu, the policeman let Ning Shu go home. He told her that they’d definitely notify her if there was any news.
If it was possible, he also asked Ning Shu to give them the key to Cheng Fei’s clinic, so they could check it thoroughly.
Ning Shu shook her head. She didn’t have the key to Cheng Fei’s clinic.
In fact, she didn’t have any of their keys. What kind of couple were they?
Rather than marrying a wife, Cheng Fei seemed more like he was raising a canary.
Ai Yun couldn’t participate in Cheng Fei’s economic life at all. She didn’t even know about the things Cheng Fei purchased.
When Ning Shu arrived home, Mother Ai was already awake. When she saw Ning Shu, she asked, “Why aren’t you keeping watch in the hospital? Cheng Fei has no one to care for him. It’s going to be rough for him to be there by himself.”
Ning Shu: …
She felt very distressed every time she heard Mother Ai talk about Cheng Fei. She made him sound like he was so pitiful.
The more this happened, the more Ning Shu couldn’t help but shudder in fear. Cheng Fei really disguised himself well, pretty much everyone was on his side.
“There are so many nurses in the hospital. If he needs anything, he can just call one of them,” NIng Shu said with her hands spread.
Mother Ai was speechless. “You—! Your husband fell off a building that’s more than ten meters tall, and this is how you treat him? Are you serious?
“Yeah, I’m a ruthless and heartless monster, Mom, and I make trouble for no reason at all,” Ning Shu woefully said.
“Yes, you are indeed ruthless and unreasonable.”
Ning Shu: …
Oh, the influence that a man with good looks and a thick wallet has on women…
It felt like Mother Ai insisted on having her and Cheng Fei be together no matter what.
In contrast, Professor Ai appeared to be much more rational.
Mother Ai was too emotional.
