Fu Junshan tossed and turned all night without sleep, and by dawn, his eyes were bloodshot, his complexion was sallow, and he looked as though he had aged several years in an instant.

He went to the bathroom for a cold shower and changed into a fresh set of clothes. With no appetite for breakfast, he grabbed his bag and headed straight out the door.

Since the situation had reached a point of no return, it was only right that he started planning early.

Li Mei watched him leave with a gloomy expression, and seeing his haggard appearance, she knew that Fu Junshan was under tremendous pressure and enduring immense mental torture and agony.

She didn’t sympathize with him at all; instead, she felt a profound sense of satisfaction.

She was suffering so much now, and she had to drag him down with her, to make him suffer just as much!

Want to enjoy the blessings of everyone’s affection?

Pah! As if he had the fate for that!

In the past, she had been lenient, but now that she was holding grudges, she would make sure he deeply remembered this lesson and never forgot it!

Li Mei and her third daughter, Fu Chaoying, along with her youngest son, Fu Chaofan, sat together and leisurely finished breakfast.

After seeing Fu Chaoying off to work, she asked Fu Chaofan to stay home and go out with her later.

Then, Li Mei returned to the bedroom and picked up her mobile phone to call Shen Wenzheng, hoping to get an update on the progression of Fu Chaofan’s case.

Over the years, as Shen Wenzheng has occupied the position of police chief in Suzhou, it was inevitable he would frequently encounter the Fu Family at government-business collaboration events, so it was not strange for them to be acquainted.

Moreover, Li Mei’s elder brother, Li Song, had quite a good relationship with Shen Wenzheng; they were considered good friends.

When Fu Chaofan got into trouble this time, Li Mei had immediately called Shen Wenzheng and inquired about the situation regarding Fu Chaofan’s case.

Now, she just wanted to ask Shen Wenzheng again if the son of the third party had been arrested or not.

Shen Wenzheng, who had also been up all night and day, knew as soon as he saw the incoming call from Li Mei that she must be anxious about the outcome of the case.

He pressed the answer button and greeted her with a cheerful tone, "Hello, Li Mei! How are you?"

Li Mei quickly responded with a smile, "Greetings! Director Shen, I wouldn’t trouble you without good reason. You should know why I’m seeking you out, right?"

Shen Wenzheng chuckled, "Are you calling about that case?"

Li Mei nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, may I know if the mastermind behind the crimes has been caught?"

Shen Wenzheng laughed heartily, "I have good news for you. Thanks to the tireless efforts of our police officers, day and night, the case has been solved. The criminals and the mastermind behind the scenes have all been arrested, the evidence is conclusive, and we’re preparing to transfer the case files to the prosecutor’s office today for review. Once the prosecutor’s office completes the review, they will bring charges to the court for a trial. You can rest assured!"

Upon hearing this, Li Mei was immediately excited and said, "That’s wonderful! Director Shen, thank you so much for your hard work. I’ll find a way to thank you properly later."

Shen Wenzheng replied with a smile, "No need for thanks, this is all part of our duty."

Li Mei smiled, then tentatively asked Shen Wenzheng, "Director Shen, I wonder if the mastermind behind the scenes is Fu Junshan’s illegitimate son?"

Now that the case has been solved and adjudicated, and will soon be made public, Shen Wenzheng had nothing to hide. He sighed softly and said, "That’s right! The person behind the scenes is Fu Junshan’s illegitimate son, named Fu Chaoming."

Although Li Mei and the others had long suspected that it was the illegitimate son who had committed the crime, hearing this definitive answer still made Li Mei feel as if her heart had been painfully stabbed.

Seeing that Li Mei had been silent on the other end of the phone for a long time, Shen Wenzheng also understood her feelings at the moment very well.

He sighed softly again and said to Li Mei, "Li Mei, I’ve already spoken to your brother about this, and he’s very worried about you. If you need anything, just go to your brother Li Song for help. I believe he will definitely take a stand for you!"

Shen Wenzheng had called Li Song early in the morning about this matter, and now he was giving Li Mei a reminder. It seemed likely that Li Mei and Fu Junshan would have a serious marital dispute, right?

As a good friend of Li Song, Shen Wenzheng felt that he had fulfilled his obligation to warn her. After a few more words of polite consolation, he said goodbye to Li Mei.

After hanging up the phone, Li Mei remained stunned for a while. Thinking back on what Shen Wenzheng had said, she felt that if she and Fu Junshan decided to part ways, things would certainly blow up.

Indeed, she needed to inform her family about this situation so that they could be prepared and prevent the fallout between her and her husband from spreading to her parental home.

Her elder brother, Li Song, just like their parents, had always been very loving and indulgent towards her since she was young.

Back in the day, when she insisted on marrying Fu Junshan, her brother had tried to persuade her, warning that a marriage between two people from mismatched social statuses is the most prone to problems.

Her brother also said that her background was too high, while Fu Junshan’s was too low. As a man, Fu Junshan would surely feel inferior, and the day he rose up with her help, it would be hard for her to control him.

Her brother’s words had turned out to be prophetic.

But at that time, she was blinded by love, her intelligence slipping away, seeing only Fu Junshan.

She couldn’t grasp the desperate concern and meaning behind her brother’s words; instead, she suspected his motives, thinking he wanted to break her up from Fu Junshan.

She was angry with her brother for quite some time, but it was her brother’s generous nature that brought them back together, as he bought her many gifts to appease her.

Now, having gone through the trials of marriage, Li Mei truly understood her brother’s earnest advice. Thinking back on how she treated him at the time, she felt instantly ashamed, her old face turning red.

Li Mei let out a long sigh, then still picked up her phone and dialed her brother Li Song’s number.

After receiving a heads-up from Shen Wenzheng, Li Song was just about to call Li Mei.

Now that he saw Li Mei’s call coming in, he hurriedly answered, his voice filled with tension and concern as he asked anxiously, "Hello, little sister, are you alright? Is everything okay?"

Hearing the deep, rich voice of her big brother filled with such intense love and worry, Li Mei instantly felt as if she had returned to her younger days, when she could freely express her grievances only in front of her parents and brothers.

Not wanting to worry her children, she had always repressed her own pain in front of them, showing only strength.

But now, hearing her brother’s question, her long-restrained emotions collapsed in front of her own brother, "Brother, sob sob sob..."
