The Disowned Young Lady Married a Homicide Detective - Chapter 33

Yao Xiuying spent her whole life trying to make money in every possible way.

Even in haunted houses like Ping An Apartment, she would rather rent them out at a low price and earn enough to cover the water and electricity bills than let them fall into disrepair and become abandoned due to water and power outages.

However, he was unwilling to share the money he earned with his family and secretly hid it all away by himself.

Otherwise, it’s for the flowers given to a lover.

The middle-aged man in front of Yao Xiuying, who was several years younger than her, was the one that the young man had introduced to her.

He was not Yao Xiuying’s biological son. After raising him to the age of eighteen, Yao Xiuying told him this cruel truth.

Tell him that from now on, whatever he does, he will have to rely on himself.

Of course, she will contribute a portion of the money if she has to arrange a wedding in the future, but only a small portion.

In other words, after giving his wife the three gold coins, which amounted to 20,000 yuan, Yao Xiuying never gave him another penny.

He’s 33 years old now, and he still can’t afford to get married and have a wedding banquet.

The two of them have only had an engagement party so far, and haven’t even registered their marriage yet.

Sang Ning looked at the message Shen Chen had just sent and felt a headache coming on.

She never expected this to happen to her, and more importantly, what does it have to do with her?

“When your mother had the accident, I happened to call her to tell her that I wanted to terminate my lease.”

The young man’s eyes widened. “You want to terminate your lease? What’s wrong with Ping An Apartment? Why would you want to terminate your lease?!”

Is this the key point?

Perhaps because they had made too much of a commotion, Gu Yezhou came out of the interrogation room and swept his cold gaze over the three of them.

Upon seeing the newcomer, the young man nervously swallowed, not daring to say anything more.

The man in front of me looked like someone who was not to be trifled with, with an expression that said someone owed him eight million.

He just stood there, not saying a word, and none of the others dared to utter another sound.

“Aren’t the family members here to claim the body?”

Upon being asked this question, the woman next to the young man immediately replied, “We’ve come to claim the body, but we know this police officer and want to know more about the situation.”

Her eyes were practically sparkling as she looked at Gu Yezhou.

Such a handsome man, and he’s a policeman!

Isn’t he much better than her current boyfriend?

She’s lazy and good-for-nothing, all she thinks about is inheriting his adoptive mother’s estate after she dies. If it weren’t for all the real estate she owns, she wouldn’t want to be with such an ugly man.

The young man was indeed not good-looking. He was thin and small, and his skin was very dark. He never went out in the sun, but he was still so dark. No matter how much he tried to make himself fair, he could never get his skin white.

The worst part is that her face is covered in acne. Every time they do “that,” not to mention men like to turn off the lights, she, as a woman, also has to turn off the lights before she can bring herself to do it.

“I’m sorry, I don’t know you. My relationship with the deceased is limited to that of landlord and tenant.” Sang Ning stood up, preparing to lead these people to identify the body.

The young man wanted to argue, but because of the policeman in front of him, he didn’t dare to utter a sound.

Ironically, the middle-aged man he found was the most daring.

The old woman is dead. With so much money, are we really going to let this kid have it so easily?

Even if he only approached this woman for money, he still put in a lot of effort, diligently washing dishes, cooking, and doing laundry every day. He did all the woman’s work, so what’s wrong with wanting a share of the money?

He wailed, “Sooyoung, who killed you, Sooyoung…”

Sang Ning walked ahead, and the only sound of weeping behind her was that of the middle-aged man.

The young couple remained silent, and their faces showed no sign of sadness.

If she hadn’t seen the information Shen Chen sent her, she would have really thought that this middle-aged man was truly in love with his landlady.

Upon arriving at the autopsy room, Lu Lin was piecing together the skeleton, which was almost completely complete.

He had just covered the white cloth with it when the group of people came in.

When the young man saw Yao Xiuying’s body, his eyes reddened slightly and his nose stung, but he did not want to cry.

He clenched his fists and watched as the middle-aged man rushed over like a madman, weeping bitterly beside Yao Xiuying.

He forced a smile. This woman was finally dead; now that she was dead, she wouldn’t have to tell anyone.

Lu Lin was a straightforward person who wasn’t afraid of offending people. He glanced at the young man and said with a hint of sarcasm, “If you don’t want to cry, then don’t cry.”

He didn’t know if the deceased was the young man’s mother; there was a young girl standing next to her.

They look like a couple.

And this middle-aged man looks much younger than the deceased.

This family looks really strange.

The young man was told something by a stranger who looked like a forensic doctor.

“My mother died, and you think I don’t want to cry?”

The young man was enraged. He stepped forward to hit Lu Lin, but Sang Ning held him back with one hand.

“This is a police station. Even family members can’t lay a hand on the police. Do you want to stay here for a few days?”

The young man was frightened by Sang Ning’s cold attitude, and also, how could this woman be so strong!

“I… I just acted impulsively. My mother is lying there like this, how can I, as her son, not be sad? I’m not crying now, I just don’t want to cry in front of so many of you.”

He stammered his explanation, his eyes constantly glancing, intentionally or unintentionally, at the middle-aged man beside him who was crying bitterly.

Damn it, isn’t this just one of the actors he hired?!

How come she cares about him more than he does about his adopted son?

Sang Ning released him, picked up the prepared documents beside him and handed them over, “Your mother died from falling from a building. Just sign here and you can take her away.”

On his way there, he heard that Yao Xiuying’s cause of death was falling from a building, or being thrown from a building.

He didn’t even glance at it before signing it immediately.

Then, the middle-aged man and the body left.

Yao Xiuying’s family came inexplicably and left inexplicably with the body.

Other people’s family affairs are indeed none of Sang Ning’s business, but…

She must have been seeing things; she thought she saw the young man smile.

Since she was able to see this beautiful world, she has been extremely observant, especially after becoming a forensic pathologist, she doesn’t want to miss any details.

“What’s going on? Claiming a corpse and it’s turned into this mess?” Lu Lin whispered from the side.

Because of this farce, Gu Yao was able to suppress the incident that happened at Ping An Apartment, and her condition improved somewhat.

“Forensic Doctor Lu, I think you went too far just now. His mother is dead, and you said he didn’t want to cry, but didn’t you see how red his eyes were just now?”

He looked like he was in a lot of pain, and the woman next to him was gently patting his back, clearly trying to comfort him.

Lu Lin leaned against Gu Yao’s office desk, took a sip of tea, and said, “Little brat, you don’t understand. This kid is acting. I bet he’s going crazy with joy as soon as he steps out of this door.”

Over the years, he’s seen all kinds of family members.

“No way.” Gu Yao’s eyes widened.

Sang Ning rested her chin on her hand and looked at Lu Lin, asking, “Why did you say that just now? Did you see something?”

“What can I see?” Lu Lin scratched his head, quickly realizing what was going on.

He moved closer to Sang Ning, placing one hand on the table and the other on her shoulder, making him look like a tall man talking to a little girl.

It gives the impression of: Little sister, where do you want to go? Big brother will give you candy.

In short, it’s the kind of thing that’s very unconventional.
