Chapter 266: Chapter 265 Admission (5/5)

After Gu Xijun finished speaking, Liu Chengpeng visibly lost his composure, his expression changing multiple times.

"Take a look at him!" Yang Chen instructed Gu Xijun.

Gu Xijun glanced toward Liu Chengpeng.

It was obvious that Liu Chengpeng’s eyes were evasive.

Yang Chen smiled slightly and said to Gu Xijun, "That’s enough, go inside!"

Gu Xijun walked in, and Liu Chengpeng regained his calm.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting."

"You better let me go quickly! Otherwise, I will definitely sue you! Do you know how much tax I pay every year? And you treat me like this!" Liu Chengpeng said angrily.

Yang Chen taught Gu Xijun, "Don’t rush, you probably won’t just be paying taxes; you’ll likely be paying fines and having your assets confiscated too."

"What do you mean by that!" Liu Chengpeng became nervous.

Gu Xijun laughed and said, "Isn’t it obvious? As a father, you should take responsibility for your actions, instead bring your son into it, even letting him contact others. Honestly, a tiger wouldn’t eat its cubs!"

Liu Chengpeng’s face showed panic, and he said solemnly, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Am I talking nonsense? Do you really not know why I’ve arrested you?"

"You must have caught the wrong person!"

"Without evidence, would I dare to arrest you in broad daylight on a busy street?"

Liu Chengpeng’s expression darkened, looking extremely unnatural.

Yang Chen observed Liu Chengpeng’s changes in expression and felt that it was about time.

So-called adults or experienced people can easily have their psychological defenses broken if you hit the right spot.

Young people like Liu Zekai are more likely to hold onto fantasies. Whereas people like Liu Chengpeng are more realistic; once he believes you truly have evidence, his defenses crumble.

This principle is much like how the too rigid are easily broken.

Yang Chen instructed Gu Xijun, "Ask him directly—do you want me to read Liu Zekai’s confession to you, or would you prefer to come clean yourself?"

Gu Xijun followed Yang Chen’s instructions and questioned Liu Chengpeng.

Upon hearing this, cold sweat poured down Liu Chengpeng’s forehead.

After a while, Yang Chen told Gu Xijun, "Say: You’ve been given the time already, and a few hours to think. Isn’t that enough? I’m very busy, and my patience is limited. If you don’t confess willingly, I’ll follow procedure, put all the evidence we have in front of you, and have you sign it right there!"

Hearing this, Liu Chengpeng’s psychological defenses completely broke; he sighed, collapsed into the chair, and feebly said, "I’ll talk... I’ll talk!"

Gu Xijun’s eyes flashed with joy, and she asked, "Go ahead, there’s audio and video recording. Everything you say will become evidence."

Liu Chengpeng slowly said, "I killed Wei Qingzhong."

"Bastard!" Upon hearing this, Wei Xueqing couldn’t hold back any longer. She jumped from the chair and swung her purse at the screen.

Everyone in the room was startled by this.

Quick on his feet, Yang Chen caught Wei Xueqing around the waist.

Wei Xueqing still struggled wildly, kicking and shouting.

"I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you! Liu Chengpeng, my dad treated you so well, how could you do such a thing? How could you! When did the Wei family ever owe you anything!"

Just as Wei Xueqing said, Wei Qingzhong was a sentimental person who never owed Liu Chengpeng anything. To find Liu Chengpeng as the killer left many feeling coldhearted.

Yang Chen said in a deep voice, "Control your emotions!"

"How am I supposed to control them!" Wei Xueqing cried as she hit Yang Chen with her purse, "If something like this happened to you, how would you control your emotions!"

Yang Chen fell silent.

He was no stranger to such things.

Once, during a mission, they hid beneath the enemy’s artillery, knowing any movement would expose them.

It was a snow-covered winter day; the enemies were warming themselves by a fire inside, while they froze outside.

But somehow, the enemy suddenly dumped a pile of half-burned coal outside, directly onto a comrade.

At that moment, Yang Chen wanted to rush out but was held back tightly.

Because if he moved, the entire team would be exposed, and everyone’s life would be at risk.

Yang Chen just helplessly watched his comrade endure on the burning charcoal.

But then the artillery dumped two more piles of burning coals; his comrade couldn’t stand it any longer, giving a tragic smile to a few men, and stabbed his temple with a dagger...

Back then, Yang Chen kept thinking, why did such a thing happen around him, and why to him? He thought events like these should only be in textbooks.

Later, Yang Chen led the team and killed all those people while they were resting.

He found the man who dumped the coals and tortured him to near death, asking why he dumped the coals.

The man said it was because the artillery was full of gunpowder and warming by fire wasn’t allowed, so when the leader came to check, he had no choice but to dump it out.

It was just an absurd, dog-blooded accident, yet it claimed the life of a young man.

Yang Chen looked at Wei Xueqing and said, "There aren’t many ’whys’ in this world; there are only things that have happened and are happening. If you couldn’t stop it, it means you can’t stop it. You didn’t choose to be Uncle Zhong’s daughter, but you are, and everything he’s borne for you is to give you a better life. It’s inevitable you must accept it all!"

"Why me? Why do I have to accept it? Can’t it just pass me by? Why does it have to be me? Why did he do this?" Wei Xueqing cried as she asked.

Yang Chen’s eyes flickered with a cold glint. He said to Wei Xueqing, "Because... I’m going to make him face the most terrifying things in this world, make him regret everything he’s done, and regret ever coming into this world!"

Wei Xueqing froze, seemingly sensing the terrifying aura emanating from Yang Chen. As she looked up, she saw a murderous intent flashing in Yang Chen’s eyes.

"You..." Wei Xueqing froze, staring at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen said, "Rest assured, I’ll definitely avenge Uncle Zhong. Right now, at this crucial moment, you must stay calm, or I’ll have to have someone take you out. If you ruin the plan, will you just watch Liu Chengpeng continue to roam free? Is that what you want to see?"

Wei Xueqing shook her head.

"Alright then, continue sitting there and wait for me."

Wei Xueqing thought for a moment and nodded slightly, although still crying, she tried her best to control her voice.

Yang Chen took a deep breath and turned to look at the surveillance screen.

Liu Chengpeng began to speak slowly, "Now that I think about it, I don’t really regret doing it. Wei Qingzhong treated me as a brother, like family. Honestly, I feel guilty towards him; he has no shame in front of me. The blame is only on him being too excellent, too perseverant, taking everything that should’ve been mine, and climbing ever higher, always standing above me. We started this business together, and now I’m just his subordinate; it’s something I can’t accept. Do you know what this feels like?"

Liu Chengpeng looked at Gu Xijun and said, "It feels like you married a wife, but you watch her have kids with someone else. You raise the wife, but the child isn’t yours, and yet they’re calling someone else daddy!"
