Mr. Bigshot Is Obsessed with His Hidden-Marriage Wife
Chapter 187:

Chapter 187: Chapter 187:

Three days later, Ye Yan was discharged from the hospital and returned home.

Director Bi gave her a few more days off, and she was not due back at work until a week later.

During that time, she asked Xiao Xiao to take care of Jia Qing. Xiao Xiao said that Li Jin had not come again, and Jia Qing was recovering very well.

Ye Yan put on her white lab coat and went straight to Jia Qing’s ward.

Inside the ward was a middle-aged woman, dressed in plain clothes, gently feeding Jia Qing porridge with careful and tender movements.

"Dr. Ye, you’re finally back," Jia Qing greeted her happily upon seeing Ye Yan, "Mom, this is Dr. Ye."

The woman quickly set the bowl down, stood up, and bowed to Ye Yan, "Dr. Ye, I really can’t thank you enough. Xiao Qing told me everything. You’ve been taking care of her during her hospitalization. Without you, she might have..."

As she spoke, the woman wiped away a tear.

She knew her daughter was here, but she couldn’t come in herself.

Her daughter was suffering and on the brink of life and death, but she, as a mother, couldn’t help at all.

"Auntie, please don’t be so formal," Ye Yan hurriedly helped the woman to her feet, "I am a doctor, and it’s my duty to do these things."

"I heard from Xiao Qing that Dr. Ye had a car accident. How are you recovering now?"

"It’s all superficial injuries, nothing serious."

Ye Yan asked the woman to sit down on the chair and then walked over to the bedside.

The girl on the bed looked up at her with eyes full of admiration, as if she was seeing a superhero.

But Ye Yan felt she had failed Jia Qing’s trust because she had lost that phone.

Just as she was wondering how to apologize, she heard Jia Qing’s joyful voice, "Dr. Ye, thank you for saving me and my mom’s life. That bastard will never threaten us again."

A question mark slowly formed in Ye Yan’s eyes.

"Dr. Ye has been recovering at home and may not have been following the news," said Jia Qing, her face beaming with a smile she hadn’t worn in a long time, "This morning, the news program on the TV station broadcasted a special report about the vicious incidents involving Li Jin. In five years, he abused six girls to death, and there are countless other victims like me... His two previous wives, they didn’t die natural deaths either; they were poisoned by Li Jin’s hand."

"Dr. Ye, I really must thank you. It was your act of justice, fearless in the face of power, that allowed so many girls to be redeemed," Jia Qing attempted to get up from the bed but was stopped by Ye Yan.

"Thank you for giving that video to someone trustworthy in the police, so that a demon like Li Jin could be brought to justice."

Ye Yan stepped out of the ward and quickly turned on her phone.

Sure enough, the news of Li Jin being caught was causing an uproar. The public, upon learning the truth, were brimming with righteous indignation. The families of the victims had even gathered in front of the police station demanding stern punishment for the criminal.

Someone online had posted several photos of Li Jin being arrested.

He reportedly had been involved in a car crash while trying to escape and was ultimately carried off on a stretcher.

Ye Yan enlarged the photos and was quite startled by Li Jin’s battered condition.

According to her professional experience, Li Jin’s injuries didn’t look like they were caused by a car accident at all.

He looked as if he had been suffering some kind of abuse for a long time that left him emaciated. Looking into his eyes, there was no life left in them anymore.

Could a man like him actually lose the will to live and long for death?

At this moment, Ye Yan was even more certain that the video had been taken by Fu Xingzhou, and Li Jin’s current sorry state was also Fu Xingzhou’s doing.

She had always known he was ruthless; that was the real face of Fu Xingzhou.

But what he always presented to her was nothing but the demeanor of a gentleman.

He was also afraid of scaring her.

Online there were also "informed sources" revealing that a righteous citizen risked their life to record Li Jin’s criminal evidence and then braved death again to deliver it to the police.

Nearly paying with their life for the act.

The entire Ao City was in a fervor, the public clamoring for a severe investigation as to why a villain had been allowed to commit evil deeds for years before finally being exposed today.

Because of this incident, those in the police force who had been protecting Li Jin also consequently came to light and one after another were brought down.

The skies of Ao City seldom revealed such clarity.

After reading these news articles, Ye Yan took a deep, relieved breath.

"Villains will eventually meet their fate," this saying could not have been more apt for Li Jin.

"Ah Yan," Meng Tian suddenly appeared, slapping her on the shoulder.

Ye Yan was startled, "Why did you come without calling first?"

"Is your injury almost healed?" Meng Tian had only found out about Ye Yan’s car accident that day, "My godchild hasn’t been harmed, right?"

These past few days, she had been preoccupied with Li Jin’s case and had inadvertently neglected her good friend.

"It’s just a superficial wound, healing fast," Ye Yan said with a smile, "You’re not just here for a simple visit, are you?"

"Of course not, I’m here on behalf of our district police station to express our gratitude," she pulled out a silk banner from behind her, "This is personally inscribed by the chief, to present to our virtuous citizen."

"For me?" Ye Yan was puzzled.

"Yes, isn’t it you who sent me the video of Li Jin’s incriminating evidence? Thanks to your video, we were able to find the evidence of Li Jin’s crimes and apprehend this extremely wicked murderer."

The phone wasn’t in her possession; she was certain she hadn’t sent any video to Meng Tian.

It was Fu Xingzhou. It was him who used her name to send the video to Meng Tian, and through Meng Tian’s and Lu Changchen’s hands, Li Jin was put behind bars.

A whole week had passed from the time he obtained the video until Li Jin was captured.

During that week, Li Jin might have been in his grasp the entire time.

For Li Jin, he finally got to experience a taste of hell on earth.

The violence he had inflicted on those girls, he "experienced" deeply for an entire week.

For the first time, Ye Yan felt that Fu Xingzhou’s ruthlessness deserved a round of applause.

But this thought went against the original intent of a healer, and she quickly denied it in her heart.

"Today, our police station is holding a celebration banquet, and the chief insisted that I invite you to come."

"Me? That doesn’t seem right, I’m not part of your station," she objected.

"But you are a great contributor. The chief said that to ensure your personal safety, we must not overly publicize this matter, so online they only refer to the virtuous citizen," Meng Tian said with a smile and a wink, "Come on, go as our virtuous citizen, or else I can’t fulfill my task."

Under Meng Tian’s persistent coaxing, Ye Yan could only agree.

When she left the police station’s celebration banquet, it was already late.

Meng Tian had intended to take Ye Yan home, but upon stepping outside, she saw Chai Chen standing there as if he had been waiting for a long time.

"Your boyfriend is here; I won’t be the third wheel," Meng Tian teased.

"He’s not my boyfriend yet," Ye Yan corrected.

"Not now, but it’s only a matter of time. Doctor Chai is really great; take care of him," Meng Tian was very supportive of Chai Chen. According to her experience as a police officer, the look in Chai Chen’s eyes towards Ye Yan was without any impurities, transparent to the core.

If he could help Ye Yan move on from her last relationship, it wouldn’t be a bad thing.

Meng Tian watched Ye Yan and Chai Chen get into the car and waved goodbye.

As she was preparing to leave, she suddenly caught sight of a car parked in the shadows.

The light was too dim to see the person inside, but she glanced at the license plate.

In Ao City, such a unique license plate was only owned by people of esteemed status.
