Chapter 2708: You Betrayed Me
Ning Shu felt dizzy.
Between the two of them, who was it that was really the crazy one?
Ning Shu and Cheng Fei silently looked at each other. Suddenly, the door of the basement was opened with a bang. The sound was followed by many hurried footsteps.
Soon, a group of foreign policemen barged into the basement. Professor Ai was also with them.
“Ai Yun!” Professor Ai called out to Ning Shu.
Ning Shu rubbed her face. Professor Ai sure moved fast.
“Hands up! Get on your knees and put your hands on your head!”
A lot of black guns were being pointed at Cheng Fei. He frowned and stared at Ning Shu. He said, “You called the police. Why did you call the police?”
“Cheng Fei, don’t hurt Ai Yun.” Professor Ai shouted at Cheng Fei with a trembling face.
Ning Shu spread her hands. “Because I don’t want to die.”
Cheng Fei was heartbroken. “You betrayed me.”
“No. All that I’m doing is protecting my own life. My life belongs to me, and you have no right to take it away from me.”
Cheng Fei was subdued by the police. His expression was calm. He stared deeply into Ning Shu’s eyes. “I just want us to be together forever.”
“You want to kill me and live with my fossilized corpse. How can that be called being together with me?”
“Like I said, you will be at your most beautiful forever.”
Ning Shu waved her hand. She didn’t want to talk to Cheng Fei anymore. Ning Shu felt that talking to him any further would only shatter her outlook on life.
The police took Cheng Fei away. Cheng Fei did not resist and maintained his calm expression.
“Ai Yun, are you okay?” Professor Ai asked.
Ning Shu shook her head. “I’m fine.”
She had gained nothing at all from this incident. All Cheng Fei had done so far was an unsuccessful attempted murder. A charge like this wouldn’t affect him at all.
A person like Cheng Fei could live like a fish in water no matter where he was placed.
Even in prison, Ning Shu felt that Cheng Fei would still be able to live a great life.
Ning Shu took out the mini recorder attached to her back. It’d been recording and broadcasting everything this whole time.
Professor Ai learned, in real time, that Cheng Fei wanted to fossilize his daughter, and immediately called the police. The Chinese police, then, requested for the local police to arrest Cheng Fei.
Professor Ai sighed. “Return to China and divorce Cheng Fei. Your mother cried so hard she fainted when she heard the recording.”
“Dad, I really think that Cheng Fei has a hand in Mom’s kidnapping. He may have also killed his adoptive parents.”
“However, his adoptive parents died more than ten years ago. It wouldn’t be easy to investigate it.”
Ning Shu turned and looked at Professor Ai. “Dad, Cheng Fei won’t let us off now.”
“Judging from how he is, he probably won’t, but I will find a way,” Professor Ai said with a sullen face.
Professor Ai had known Cheng Fei for years. He never imagined that Cheng Fei would be the kind of person who’d plan to fossilize his daughter from the very start of their relationship.
This just made Cheng Fei all the more terrifying.
Cheng Fei never left any signs of his intentions during his interactions with Ai Yun’s family. The impression Professor Ai had of Cheng Fei was of a gentle and polite man, who was talented and a social elite.
All that good impression, however, had been suddenly overturned and shattered.
Professor Ai and Ning Shu returned to China. Cheng Fei was also sent back to the country.
After all, this was still a domestic Chinese case.
As soon as Ning Shu entered the Ai family house, Mother Ai hugged Ning Shu and wept. She cried until she was out of breath.
Ning Shu patted Mother Ai’s back. “I’m fine, Mom. Don’t worry.”
Mother Ai wiped her tears and as she sobbed, she said, “Divorce him! Divorce him immediately! Who would’ve thought he was someone like this? I was the one who was blind!
“I wanted to entrust you to Cheng Fei, but I didn’t expect him to be such a person.” Mother Ai gritted her teeth.
Cheng Fei was a complete psychopath.
