Chapter 524: Chapter 524: I Want to Ask You for a Favor
Wen Bilan’s heart skipped a beat. She had underestimated Lan Ruikang’s love for the child as well as his suspicion of her.
She tried to control her expression and kept her gentle demeanor: “Ruikang, you have misunderstood me too much. I indeed don’t like your mistress, but the child is innocent. I wouldn’t take out my anger on him.”
“Besides, you see the child all the time, so you know whether I’m a good caregiver. With your supervision, I can’t possibly mistreat him!”
“You have always wanted a son, but I couldn’t give you one, which is something I have always felt guilty about.”
“Now that you have a son, the heavy stone in my heart has been lifted. I swear I will treat the child well.”
Lan Ruikang’s smile faded, his face filled with mockery: “When I was young, I was deceived by your seemingly gentle and refined demeanor!”
“Ruikang, you—”
Lan Ruikang cut her off sharply: “It was only after we got married that I found out you were a venomous woman, Wen Bilan. Your attempt to play the good person now doesn’t fool me.”
“If it weren’t for Yuyi, I would have divorced you long ago. I stay married only for our daughter’s sake!”
“You want to raise my son? Absolutely not! I warn you, if you so much as lay a finger on my son, I will make sure you have nowhere to rest in peace! I am not kidding!”
“Now, get out! The sight of you disgusts me! Out!”
Wen Bilan was fuming. She never expected that all her hidden plans would come to nothing.
Her husband’s disgust for her was no longer hidden. It was as if the death of his mistress removed all his restraints, he was virtually insane!
She ran out crying, heading to find her daughter to vent her grievances.
In doing so, she needed to rethink her plan on how to get the child.
Only Lan Ruikang was left in the ward.
He murmured, “You, I watched the accident surveillance video. I feel that this is not an accident. After all, you’re such a cautious person, so why would you drive at such a high speed?”
“Did something agitate you? Or was your car tampered with?”
“You rest assured, I will find the killer who ended your life, I will not let your death be in vain, I will make the killer pay.”
“I will raise our son properly, I will do it myself, I will not let someone else raise our son.”
“You once said you wanted our son to live a worry-free life, you hoped he wouldn’t have to live in poverty like you did, you wished that he would never be short of money, I will fulfill this wish for you.”
He rambled on for a long time, only stopping when an assistant came in to remind him that the body needed to be moved to the morgue.
He watched as his beloved was moved away, took out his phone and dialed a number.
Half an hour later, he appeared at the Shengling Group office building.
He was led into a visitor’s room, where he waited a while before Lu Lingche arrived.
However, he showed no signs of impatience; as if waiting for nothing, he no longer held the pride he used to have when facing Lu Lingche in the past.
“President Lu.”
He used a formal address, unlike before when he would simply call Lu Lingche by his name: “I came today to ask you for a favor.”
Lu Lingche’s face was indifferent: “What favor?”
“My student died, the person who ran her over fled the scene. I would like you to help me find them.”
Of course, Lu Lingche understood who the “student” he referred to was, the student who was his mistress died in a car accident today, and it was already on the news and attracting a lot of attention.
Many people were cursing at her, saying she destroyed another person’s family and deserved to die.
With no emotion in his voice, he said, “Director Lan, you should take this matter to the police. I’m not a policeman and can’t help you.”
