"The old feelings have been talked about enough, Sister. Just one sentence: one million. I swear to heaven, once I get this money, I will never show up in front of you again."
"I don't have that much money."
"Come on, Sister, Manager Huo has it. Isn't it yours anyway? I'm not asking for too much; just a mere million. Manager Huo's house in the suburbs is worth much more than that."
"I told you I don't have it."
"If you really don't have it, then I'll have to ask Manager Huo for it. Back then, he offered a reward for the capture of the murderer who killed his daughter. I'm sure he would be more than willing to pay that amount."
"You! Don't go too far. I only resorted to such measures to avenge my daughter. I never intended to take Huo Yiheng's money; I had his child because I loved him. Who knew his wife would be so cruel and ruin my daughter's life? I'm just returning the favor; there's nothing to regret."
"Yes, you completely ruined her. Women really are not to be trifled with. It's almost laughable when I think about it—former Mrs. Huo wanted me to harm your daughter, and now this future Mrs. Huo wants me to harm hers. Ha, there's no humanity in high society at all."
"What do you need so much money for? That's too much; I really don't have it."
"Sister Shan, stop repeating the same thing over and over." The man poured himself another beer, gulping it down hurriedly.
With a crash, the bottle hit the table.
"To be honest, if I had listened to you back then and met up with you after finishing the job, would you have taken care of me too?" The man's tongue began to slur, his words becoming indistinct.
A heavy silence fell over them, eerie and unsettling, followed by the woman's uncontrollable scream.
"Since you know, why don't you just stay in your doghouse!" A scuffle ensued, accompanied by a woman's hoarse cries.
"What did you inject me with? You..." A muffled mumble followed, along with the sounds of heavy objects falling and glass shattering.
The woman's sobs grew fainter, her gasps slowly fading away.
A door slammed shut, and not long after, another door opened.
Then, silence enveloped the space, leaving only the static hum of the tape recorder and background music.
"Is it over?" San Zhua seemed still lost in the aftermath of the earlier conversation.
"It's over. Lin Xue's mother wanted to kill him from the very beginning, driven by jealousy. Auntie transferred Lin Xue to the same school as Le Xue," Yunsu explained.
"Perhaps this hatred was sown from the moment Lin Xue was born. Otherwise, why would she name her daughter with 'Xue' in it?" He Weiran remarked.
"Exactly. I believe Auntie truly loved Lin Xue's father, which is why her jealousy ran so deep. Mrs. Huo isn't a fool; she must have realized what was going on as soon as she saw Lin Xue. She likely conducted quite a bit of investigation behind the scenes. She's quite a formidable character; I've heard that Brilliant Company was built through her and her husband's hard work. It's no wonder she lost her mind when faced with her husband's mistress's blatant provocation..."
"She's incredibly shrewd, pretending her daughter was kidnapped when in reality it was all to eliminate her rival's daughter. Using one person's misfortune to take down another—how clever! I can imagine Auntie understood everything when she saw Mrs. Huo's expression."
"And so, six years later, the second act played out. That Teng must be the mastermind behind the kidnapping case from back then. Using the master's dog to bite back at its owner—truly a fitting retribution. But sometimes people can't escape their own greed; otherwise, that bastard wouldn't have met his end."
"But what about poor little Xue? How will she face her mother and father?"
"Will Lin Xue's mother go to jail? Sigh, which side should I stand on now?" San Zhua asked with a mournful expression.
"And what about A Qi? What will happen to A Qi?"
