My Lovely Wife is a Forensic Doctor

Chapter 48 Such Cruel Measures

'Clothing World's owner', 'jumped off the building', 'died on the spot' were the few key phrases that made Mu Yu's head spin.

"How could this be? How could this be?" She subconsciously grabbed Jiang Wenwen's arm tightly. Her voice was shaky, and her eyes were trembling.

No wonder the woman was instantly shocked to that extent just now.

Jiang Wenwen, whose face was just as pale, held her phone tightly and looked at Yan Xiaobing with disbelief. "Bing, is-is this true?"

Yan Xiaobing nodded solemnly. "After that incident, there were some colleagues that went to the scene to have a look. They confirmed that the victim was the owner of the Clothing World, Fu Hongyun."

"Oh my God!" Mu Yu felt her legs weakened.

Jiang Wenwen immediately helped her up and was speaking so fast as if she was trying to convince herself. "Maybe the reason she jumped off the building wasn't because of what happened yesterday, but something else instead?"

After she finished talking, she then looked at Yan Xiaobing with a pleading gaze.

Yan Xiaobing understood her glance and realized that there was something wrong with their expression. He quickly corrected himself and consoled them, "Yes, yes, there probably is another reason. I heard that she and her husband were divorced. And her children were really rebellious. These things may be the reasons that caused her to end her life."

Jiang Wenwen nodded her head continuously. "Yes, that's why her death has not a single thing to do with us."

Mu Yu looked at her with a gaze filled with despair. She shook her head and sighed, "Think of how arrogant she looked yesterday. Did she look like someone who wanted to commit suicide? She must be desperate enough to end her own life. I thought he was only going to teach her a lesson, how can he take such cruel measures? I was the reason she took her life. It was me!"

After saying that, she covered her face and broke into tears.

"Yu, don't be like this. There could probably be some hidden agenda behind this? The website you saw didn't even mention that her death had anything to do with us."

"Do you think they dare to mention it on the website?"

When Mu Yu asked such a question, Jiang Wenwen instantly felt that her words didn't carry any conviction either, and then started to cry.

"Don't cry, please don't cry." Yan Xiaobing panicked as he failed to console the both of them. Then, he quickly pulled the both of them into the passageway as soon as he saw more curious people surrounding them. After closing the door, he advised them in a low tone, "Listen to me, the cause of this matter could probably be linked to yesterday's incident. However, this matter really isn't entirely your fault. We can only blame her as she usually treats others harshly. After they heard about her mishap, not one of her friends was willing to help her and they even took the chance to throw sarcastic remarks at her. Moreover, all her family members were resentful toward her. This must be the actual reason why she wanted to end her life."

Mu Yu cried and said, "The one she had offended was Qin Jinhuan. Who would dare to stand out and help her? That's why, no matter what you say, her death still has something to do with me."

Jiang Wenwen wiped away her tears and said, "Then we could only blame her for going too far yesterday."

"She indeed crossed the line, but that doesn't mean that she had to take her own life! My intention was only to teach her a lesson in hopes that she wouldn't be so biased when treating customers."

"I understand your intentions." Jiang Wenwen suddenly thought of something and her expression changed again. "Bing's boss had also treated us really badly today. If by any chance the news of this incident reached Young Master Qin, won't he repeat the same actions?"

Mu Yu's entire body froze before she turned and ran down the stairs.

"Yu, where are you going? Wait for me!" Jiang Wenwen hurriedly followed her.

"Hey, hey, you." Yan Xiaobing ran a few steps behind them and then he stopped. He stared blankly and stood still on the ground.

Mu Yu ran all the way to the underground parking and phoned Huang Bo.

Soon, Huang Bo drove the car to her. Before Huang Bo got down from the car to open the door for her, she had already entered the car and threw a "Grab a taxi and go home yourself" statement at Jiang Wenwen. Then, she anxiously urged Huang Bo to start the car as she ordered, "Bring me to see Qin Jinhuan."

Huang Bo, who had just walked to the side of the car door, had realized something was not right. Through the car window, he quickly asked, "Mistress, is something wrong?"

Remembering that Qin Jinhuan and Huang Bo were whispering to each other after coming out of Clothing World yesterday, Mu Yu instantly had her suspicions. She then glared at him and asked, "I've only asked you guys to teach the owner of the Clothing World a lesson, so that she would treat the customers more politely in the future. Why did you force her to end her life? You are treating human lives like playthings, do you know that?"

Huang Bo immediately explained, "Mistress, you've misunderstood. The death of the Clothing World's owner had no one to blame but herself. It had nothing to do with us."

"How does it have nothing to do with us? Can you be sure that she didn't choose to end her life because her shop was closed down and had no other way out? It was all my fault! I was the one who allowed you all to destroy her shop and close her shop down, just for that short-lived pleasure. If not, she wouldn't have."

"Mistress, no, it's not like that. Her death has nothing to do with you. Don't you take it into your account."

"It was me who caused her to commit suicide! I was the reason she died!"

Huang Bo was even more anxious when he saw Mu Yu burst into tears. "Mistress, listen to me. The truth isn't what you think it is, but."

"Bring me to see Qin Jinhuan!"

"Mistress."

"Hurry up!"

If Qin Jinhuan caught wind of what happened today, another suicide might happen again the next day. By then, her sins would indeed be huge.

"Okay, sure, sure."

Huang Bo hurriedly went into the car and started the car engine. He sneaked a peak at Mu Yu through the rear mirror. When he saw that she was still crying, looking really terrible, he didn't dare waste any time and quickly phoned Qin Jinhuan. After asking where Qin Jinhuan was, he immediately drove toward the destination, while secretly sending Qin Jinhuan a message. He informed him that Mu Yu had already learned about the news of Fu Hongyun committing suicide by jumping off the building, and that she felt really guilty about it.

In the CEO's office of the Qing Tian building.

Because it was almost six o'clock, Qin Jinhuan switched off his computer as usual while leaning at the back of his chair. Rubbing his forehead, he closed his eyes to take a short rest and was ready to go back home in a short while. He didn't expect to receive Huang Bo's call, and he frowned slightly when he saw the message.

After having a thought about it, he called Rong Jian's phone. "Has the result of Fu Hongyun's investigation came out yet?"

"It's still in progress. She committed suicide in order to escape punishment. This has caused some difficulties in the investigation."

"When is the earliest I can get the results?"

"We still need a few more days." Rong Jian knew he cared about the case. "However, don't you fret. For now, we only found out that the Clothing World and the Nightclub City had close illegal trades. The other luxury boutiques all have legal trades with the Nightclub City. When the time comes, you can ask someone to send some warnings to these shops, and it'll be fine."

"Give me the results of Fu Hongyun's investigation as soon as possible."

Rong Jian could tell that something was wrong, but he soon responded, "Does Mu Yu know about this?"

"It's all over the internet. How can she not know?" Qin Jinhuan was a little annoyed.

"I didn't expect Fu Hongyun to choose suicide either. Don't worry, I will get to the bottom of this as soon as possible. Do you want me to find Mu Yu to explain it to her?

"Do you think a mere explanation would work?"

"Fine, I will give you the investigation results as soon as possible. You can use the truth for your explanation." Rong Jian then ended the call in a hurry.

Qin Jinhuan put his phone down, and closed his eyes to continue resting.

Not long after he sat down, Mu Yu entered his office. Without even greeting him, she asked him straightaway, "Fu Hongyun's attitude toward me was only a little impolite yesterday. She had already apologized to me after that. Why did you still want to force her to the extent of ending her life by jumping off the building?"

Although her tone was demanding, her heart was actually filled with hope. She hoped that Qin Jinhuan would answer her by denying it. After all, she couldn't believe that he was such a cruel and merciless person.

Qin Jinhuan slowly straightened up and said faintly, "The blame was all on her."

"So you actually forced her to a deadend?"

"It wasn't me who forced her to a deadend. She was the one who chose that path. This kind of person is not worthy of your pity. The police will soon announce the real truth behind her suicide to the public. You will know it by then. Okay, it's time to get off work. Let's go home and eat." Qin Jinhuan got up and held her hand gently as usual, leading her out.

Mu Yu followed his footsteps dully. She didn't expect him to be this calm about Fu Hongyun's death. For now, she had already lost interest in what the police were going to say regarding Fu Hongyun's real reason behind her suicide. With the influence of the Qin family in An City, wasn't it easy to legally murder someone?

If she had really angered him one day, would he force her and her family to a deadend, just like he had done to Fu Hongyun?

At that moment, she felt that he was extremely terrifying.

Remembering that she had already made fun of him several times, her entire body couldn't help but tremble.

Because his Grandpa hadn't recovered from his illness yet, she was still considered useful to him. Or else, she and her family would have died long ago.

My God, I am indeed risking the life of my entire family! In the future, I must treat him.

"Yu?"

She almost jumped in shock as she didn't expect Qin Jinhuan to lean so close to her all of a sudden. When she noticed him looking at her in surprise, she quickly responded, "What-What is it?"

"You're still thinking about Fu Hongyun's incident?"

"N-No." Mu Yu forced a smile. "What were you talking about just now?"

Qin Jinhuan caught the terrified look in her dodging eyes. He frowned, but he didn't point it out and only said faintly, "We're going to the West Bay to have our honeymoon the day after tomorrow. Don't go to work tomorrow and stay at home to pack up."

"But the forensic lab."

"Feng Rubing is discharged from the hospital today."

"Oh." Mu Yu didn't make another sound and turned to look out of the window. However, what she saw on the car window were raindrops.

It's raining!

Her mood, which was already terrible enough, instantly fell into the bottom of the pit.

When they reached home, they made it just in time for dinner. She didn't have any appetite, but had forced herself to finish a bowl of rice. She waited until everyone finished eating, then left the table.

As soon as she went upstairs toward Qin Jinhuan's and her bedroom, she immediately shut all the windows tightly and pulled the curtains. Then, she switched on the TV and sat on the sofa while she stared blankly at the screen.

Knowing that she still felt guilty over Fu Hongyun's death, Qin Jinhuan didn't explain anything. He was about to switch on his computer and get busy with work when he received a call from Huang Bo. After ending the call with Huang Bo, he went to her side.

"Besides using that VIP card for a discount, it can actually."

When he mentioned the VIP card, she assumed that he had found out about today's incident. Mu Yu froze and quickly cut him off to explain, "That shop's owner didn't make things difficult for me."

"Really? I just want to tell you that the VIP card is also a credit card. The password is the last six digits of your phone number. You can make overdrafts however you like."

"Oh." Mu Yu wanted to sigh in relief but then Qin Jinhuan added, "The luxury women's clothings area in Heavenly Shopping Center is indeed problematic. A restructuring is needed." Mu Yu became terrified again and begged anxiously, "I have already taught her a lesson. Don't you go and make things difficult for her!"

Qin Jinhuan didn't think that Fu Hongyun's incident would have such a major impact on her. He didn't explain much and only said faintly, "I merely want to solve the bad practices. I didn't say I want to teach whoever a lesson." Then, he turned around and got busy with work.

Mu Yu stared blankly at his back. After a while, she curled herself up on the sofa with her dull eyes fixed on the TV screen.

Qin Jinhuan was busy typing on his computer and sneaked a few peeks at Mu Yu from time to time. When it was already twelve o'clock, she yawned, but still didn't have any intentions of going to bed. He became moody as he remembered the subtle look of fear that had subconsciously filled her gaze during their conversation earlier.

Does she really think that I am the devil who would want to harm one's life just because of a trivial issue? Is that why she didn't even dare to get into my bed?

This woman's brain is really.

He was speechless as he switched off his computer. He didn't even bother with her while he got up and went into the bathroom to brush his teeth.

"Ah! Help me! Help me!"

As soon as he took his towel, he heard Mu Yu's panicked screams. His heart tensed as he rushed out of the bathroom.
