Lin Zhi's hand holding the phone instantly froze.
Hearing "disappointment" again, she no longer felt the heartbreak she had before; instead, she gave a bitter smile.
Li Tingze had always been like this, but she mistakenly thought that his plea for reconciliation was a genuine desire to change for her.
As it turns out, being delusional only hurt her.
She said "Sorry to bother you" and hung up the phone.
Jiang Nan noticed the subtle changes in Lin Zhi's expression, so he stepped forward and gentlemanly took her arm, saying softly, "Sister-in-law, although I've just returned to Beijing and don't have as many connections as Brother Tingze, I can still help. If you have anyone in mind, feel free to tell me, and I'll have my friend investigate."
"If it's not Wen Rongbin, then it must be Sun Meng."
Lin Zhi looked up at Jiang Nan's eyes, which were somewhat similar to Li Tingze's. For a moment, she was in a daze, as if the person beside her, speaking gently, was Li Tingze. But she quickly regained her senses. She wanted to slap herself hard. Every time she had an emergency, she couldn't contact Li Tingze. Why did she always think of him first?
Jiang Nan helped her to a chair and then took out his phone to call the person in charge of the organization established by the second-generation rich kids.
Within five minutes, his phone received an address.
Originally, Jiang Nan planned to wait until the police found Sun Meng before taking Lin Zhi with her.
Lin Zhi couldn't wait a moment longer and rushed to the scene immediately.
The location was an urban village, with dilapidated farmers' houses that seemed on the verge of collapse at any moment.
A foul stench permeated the surroundings.
Lin Zhi's body reacted immediately upon smelling it, and she vomited towards the roadside.
Jiang Nan handed her a bottle of mineral water.
As soon as her hand touched the water bottle, she unconsciously recalled how he had handed her water not long ago.
At this moment, instead of thinking that Jiang Nan harbored ill intentions towards him, she saw pure kindness in his eyes.
She couldn't tell the difference between what was real and what was fake.
While Sun Meng was rinsing her mouth, the police quietly arrived at her rented apartment. When they burst through the door, they found Wen Yueze sitting on the sofa, trembling all over.
The police took him into custody and, after questioning him, learned that Sun Meng had just left ten minutes earlier, but they did not know where she had gone.
Hearing this, Lin Zhi's legs went weak, but he saw a hint of smugness in Wen Yueze's eyes.
She immediately rushed forward, grabbed Wen Yueze by the collar, and screamed, "Tell me, where are you hiding my mother!"
Wen Yueze, frightened, hid behind him, shaking his head repeatedly and saying he didn't know.
The police have tracked Sun Meng's movements and are preparing to move to another location.
Before leaving, Wen Yueze leaned close to Lin Zhi's ear and said with a sneer, "If you don't give our whole family a way to survive, you can forget about your mother living!"
Lin Zhi clenched her fists and glared coldly at Wen Yueze. Just as she was about to rush forward and beat him up, Jiang Nan stopped her.
Jiang Nan shouted loudly in her ear, "Sister-in-law, don't be impulsive. He's deliberately trying to provoke you and make you do something wrong. Don't fall into his trap."
"Tell me, where did you hide my mother? Tell me!"
"Tell me!"
Lin Zhi tried desperately to rush forward, but Jiang Nan held her tightly in his arms.
Finally, she was carried outside.
Jiang Nan gently patted Lin Zhi's back, speaking comforting words softly, her eyes seemingly filled with heartache.
Lin Zhi leaned against him and began to cry uncontrollably.
When Li Tingze arrived, he saw her leaning against Jiang Nan, heartbroken and crying.
He stood frozen in place.
His pupils were stunned by the scene before him.
She should have been nestled in his arms, but now...
He clenched his fists at his sides, feeling uneasy.
When Jiang Nan noticed Li Tingze's appearance, she quickly pulled Lin Zhi out of her arms and explained, "Brother Tingze, it's not what you think, I just..."
Lin Zhi, her eyes red, looked at Li Tingze standing at the bottom of the stairs without saying a word.
Instead, he said to Jiang Nan, "Take me there quickly, I'm afraid we'll be too late..."
I will never see my mother one last time.
She couldn't bring herself to say the rest, suppressing her overwhelming emotions.
Jiang Nan was somewhat embarrassed. He glanced at Lin Zhi and then looked at Li Tingze.
Lin Zhi, however, went downstairs first.
Jiang Nan had no choice but to follow behind her.
As Lin Zhi passed by Li Tingze, he tried to grab her hand, but she dodged him.
Seeing his hand hanging in mid-air, Jiang Nan whispered, "Brother Tingze, your wife is extremely anxious right now, please don't take it to heart."
A bitter smile appeared on Li Tingze's lips.
When everyone arrived at the abandoned factory, they saw Sun Meng standing on the rooftop in a white dress, laughing loudly at Lin Zhi as she approached. Her laughter was extremely grating and made Lin Zhi feel nauseous.
Lin Zhi walked closer and closer, and Sun Meng shouted, "Don't come any closer! If you come any closer, I'll jump down and make sure you never find your mother again!"
Tears streamed down Lin Zhi's face, her eyes filled with resentment: "Sun Meng, I have never done anything wrong to you, so why did you try to kill my mother?"
"Wen Zhi, you bitch! If you hadn't schemed to steal the Lin family's business, Rong Bin and I wouldn't be penniless. If you hadn't been so stingy with your two hundred million, we wouldn't be driven to desperation by debt collectors, and Yue Ze wouldn't be so miserable that he can't even go to school. It's all because of your selfishness!"
"If your mother dies, you'll be the one who killed her! Even if we all die, you'll never have a peaceful life. We'll become vengeful ghosts and torment you every night until you go insane and die!"
"Come here! Come and die with me!"
Sun Meng burst into laughter as she spoke.
Lin Zhi was consumed by rage. She strode toward Sun Meng, as if she were ready to take them both down with her.
Jiang Nan and Li Tingze, who were standing on either side of her, grabbed her wrists at the same time.
He then said, "Don't go!"
Lin Zhi turned around and looked in Jiang Nan's direction.
In that instant, Li Tingze tasted the pain of heartbreak.
The next second, he forcefully pulled Lin Zhi into his arms, looked at Sun Meng with a cold gaze, and said in an icy voice, "Even if you don't tell, my people can still find my mother-in-law."
Sun Meng laughed loudly. She had long known that with Li Tingze's abilities, he would be able to find Lin Wanxin very quickly.
But by then, Lin Wanxin will definitely be dead.
She laughed and replied, "Li Tingze, you're a devil. Our family of three has come to this dead end because of you."
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhi looked at Li Tingze in confusion.
Sun Meng's next words cleared up her doubts.
"Back then, you used despicable means to force my husband to sign the Lin Group equity transfer agreement. Later, for the sake of that bitch Lin Zhi, you sentenced him to life imprisonment instead of just a few days of detention! It was you who coerced the school principal, leaving my son with no way to study."
"If it weren't for you, that bitch Lin and her daughter would have been left to rot in the wilderness long ago. You would have died just like them, a horrible death!"
Lin Zhi knew some of these things, and she didn't know others.
Lin Zhi's mind became increasingly confused.
She looked at Li Tingze and asked, puzzled, "Is what she said true?"
Li Tingze nodded slightly.
Jiang Nan, standing nearby, advised, "Sister-in-law, Brother Tingze is doing all this for you."
At this moment, Lin Zhi lost her reason.
She roared, "But he did this without asking me, leaving my mother's life hanging in the balance!"
As she spoke, she used all her strength to pull away from Li Tingze's embrace.
She stumbled and fell into Jiang Nan's arms.
Jiang Nan grabbed her arm, wanting to say something more, but Lin Zhi had already rushed in front of Sun Meng.
She gripped Sun Meng's collar tightly, gritting her teeth as she demanded, "How much money do you want? I can transfer it to you right now, as long as you bring my mother back safe and sound."
Seeing that Lin Zhi had been provoked by her and rushed over, Sun Meng smiled smugly.
He deliberately whispered, "I can tell you, as long as you..."
As she spoke, she placed her hand on Lin Zhi's shoulder and deliberately leaned close to her ear. But the next second, she hugged Lin Zhi tightly and fell towards the outside.
At the same time, Li Tingze had anticipated this and rushed over to grab Lin Zhi's foot as soon as Sun Meng hugged her.
With blood rushing to her brain, Sun Meng's hands slipped due to gravity, and she fell to her death right before her eyes.
Blood spread across Sun Meng's body.
Like a bottomless river of blood.
Before she could even see the gruesome state of Sun Meng's death, Li Tingze pulled her up.
Li Tingze held her tightly in his arms and asked her if she was injured anywhere.
Lin Zhi was like a block of wood.
Jiang Nan put away the phone and said softly, "The police have found my sister-in-law's mother, but..."
"It's too late."
Lin Zhi was in tears, her knees buckled, and she fell to the ground from Li Tingze's arms.
I couldn't cry.
"No...it's impossible...Mom wouldn't leave me alone..."
"impossible……"
Li Tingze hurriedly picked her up from the ground and walked towards the exit.
Jiang Nan drove ahead, anxiously heading towards the hospital.
In the car.
Lin Zhi seemed to have her soul ripped out; apart from silently shedding tears, she was utterly lifeless.
Her mind was filled with thoughts of her mother's passing.
Her mother left her alone.
When the car came to a stop in front of the hospital, Lin Zhi hurriedly tried to get out, but her legs gave way and she fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Li Tingze noticed in time, grabbed her hand, and carried her to the ward.
Doctors and nurses in white coats stood in the ward, while Lin Wanxin lay on the bed with her eyes closed, her face showing no sign of pain.
A beam of light shone from the window onto Lin Wanxin's face, making her appear peaceful.
Lin Zhi knelt down beside the hospital bed and reached out to check Lin Wanxin's breathing.
To confirm the exact moment when Lin Wanxin truly passed away.
She felt as if something had collapsed in an instant, her heart felt like it was being squeezed tightly, and the pain was so intense that she couldn't breathe.
Tears blurred her vision.
She tried desperately to call out "Mom," but no sound came out of her mouth.
Seeing her so grief-stricken, Li Tingze squatted down beside her, wanting to pick her up.
Lin Zhi suddenly pushed him away.
Tears streamed down her face as she stared intently at him.
She said nothing.
But he knew in his heart that she was blaming him...
It caused her mother's death.
