After Chen Guiyuan personally pushed me into the lake, he paced back and forth at the water's edge, his eyes fixed on the surface of the lake.
Half an hour later, convinced that I had drowned, Chen let out a long sigh and took out his phone, trembling as he dialed the emergency number. In that moment, his face transformed into one of utter despair, his voice urgent and slightly choked:
"Officer, my wife... she’s gone. She has Schizophrenia, and this morning I wasn’t paying attention; she ran out of the house by herself. I searched everywhere for her and finally found her phone by the lake. I suspect she fell in; my wife... she can’t swim! Please, officer, hurry and save my wife!"
Upon receiving the call, police and rescue personnel quickly arrived at the scene. The officer in charge of my missing person case was named Xu. Under his command, the rescue team swiftly entered the water to search for me while ground searches commenced simultaneously. The entire lake area was enveloped in a tense atmosphere of rescue efforts.
However, after three days of intensive searching with no results, not even a trace of me was found in the entire lake area or its neighboring regions. Ultimately, Officer Xu, looking weary, delivered his assessment to Chen Guiyuan and my parents:
"I'm sorry to say that based on our current search results, Ms. Su likely suffered an unexpected mental health crisis and accidentally fell into the water, resulting in her drowning. We haven’t found her body in the lake; it may have been swept away by currents into a nearby river. If that’s the case, it will be very difficult to locate her. Nevertheless, we will continue our efforts. Please accept my condolences."
Upon hearing this news, my parents collapsed onto the ground, while Chen Guiyuan played the role of a heartbroken husband perfectly. He immediately broke down in tears:
"Oh! Ming Ke! My Ming Ke! How could you leave me like this? It’s all my fault... I... I didn’t take care of you..."
He knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face like pearls from a broken string. The nearby police officers and rescue personnel were moved by his sorrow and rushed to comfort this pitiful husband.
Everyone was immersed in this tragedy, unaware that the surprise I had meticulously prepared was just beginning.
Once the police officially confirmed that I had "tragically drowned," Juliy—who had been stirring things up behind the scenes—immediately began urging Chen Guiyuan to file for insurance compensation as soon as possible.
"Juliy: Hurry up and handle that Life Insurance claim; now is the best time!
Chen Guiyuan: We can’t rush this, darling Juliy; after all, Su Mingke’s funeral isn’t even over yet. If I go to claim insurance so soon, it might raise suspicions with the police.
Juliy: Su Mingke's death is classified as Accidental Death—that’s what the police concluded. They won’t be watching you constantly; once we get the payout, we can leave here together. Just think about it—we could settle on some island in the South Pacific and start a new life."
After repeated urgings from Juliy, Chen Guiyuan couldn’t wait any longer and went to the insurance company alone the day after handling my "funeral." He even wore the same suit from the funeral, his expression heavy—truly resembling a husband who had just lost his beloved.
However, what he did not expect was that as soon as he proposed to the Insurance Manager to file a claim for my Life Insurance, her expression suddenly changed. She asked her assistant to continue talking with Chen Guiyuan and then left the negotiation room, immediately calling the police.
The officer in charge of this case was none other than Officer Xu, who had previously taken over my missing person case. When Chen Guiyuan saw Officer Xu suddenly appear, he froze in place, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.
Officer Xu took a paper box from the Insurance Manager and said to Chen Guiyuan, "Mr. Chen, we received a call from the insurance company reporting that they received an anonymous package containing a large amount of evidence suggesting you are involved in the murder of your wife, Su Mingke, to fraudulently obtain insurance money. We need you to cooperate with our investigation and come with us."
What anonymous package? What evidence?
Chen Guiyuan's face turned pale instantly, his body stiffening. He couldn't comprehend how this could happen; after meticulously planning for so long, such an unexpected turn had occurred at the last moment.
"What murder for insurance?! You are wronging me! My wife died accidentally; this is my wife's Life Insurance payout, and I have the legal right to claim it! I want to call my lawyer!"
Taking advantage of the opportunity to call his lawyer, Chen Guiyuan tried to contact Juliy, hoping to warn her to quickly deal with their chat records and other evidence. However, he found that Juliy's phone was always unreachable.
Could it be that this woman has already received some news and has run away?
Chen Guiyuan's mind was in chaos, and he felt a wave of dizziness wash over him.
