Chapter 2489 Missing
Sha Zhu and his friends went out with Cheng Chenliang, met many people, and were questioned many times.
They were not allowed to go home until seven days later.
In the courtyard, the Jia family suddenly discovered that Xu Damao and Shazhu were missing.
For the first two days, they didn't pay much attention. But as time went on, the family became restless.
They weren't concerned about Sha Zhu; on the contrary, they secretly hoped something would happen to him and that he would never come back.
Once Sha Zhu dies, the courtyard house and Chuanweiju will completely belong to Qin Huairu.
If it's Qin Huairu, then it belongs to the Jia family.
In order to find out where Sha Zhu had gone, the Jia family gathered together to discuss it.
"Mom, where do you think Sha Zhu will go?"
The younger members of the family all looked to Qin Huairu. After all, Qin Huairu knew Sha Zhu very well.
Qin Huairu shook her head: "You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?"
Qin Huairu never understood Sha Zhu, nor did she know what Sha Zhu liked.
The version of Sha Zhu she knew was the one they wanted him to become.
What is the real Sha Zhu?
They don't want to know, nor do they need to know. Because that's not the silly Zhu they want.
Bang Geng said, "Do you guys think something might happen to Sha Zhu?"
The Jia family's eyes lit up for a moment, then dimmed again.
They hoped something bad would happen to Sha Zhu, but things rarely go as planned.
Sha Zhu's body didn't look like it was going to be in any danger.
Qin Huairu instructed Xiao Huaihua to call Qin Jingru and ask.
Qin Jingru didn't tell them the truth; she only told them that Xu Damao and Shazhu had gone on a trip.
After hanging up the phone, when he told the Jia family about going on a trip, they didn't believe him.
Sha Zhu spent his entire life confined to the courtyard house by Yi Zhonghai. They were afraid that Sha Zhu would leave and escape their control, so they didn't want him to go out.
The farthest Sha Zhu went was when he went to Baoding to find He Daqing.
After Yi Zhonghai confirmed Sha Zhu's status as a backup option, he tightened his control over Sha Zhu.
He basically wouldn't allow Sha Zhu to leave his sight.
After Jia Dongxu died, Sha Zhu had to report to him almost every day.
How can they believe that someone who has never left home is suddenly going on a trip?
"Impossible. Once Sha Zhu leaves Beijing, he doesn't even know which way is north, south, east, or west."
"Could he have gone to see Lou Xiao'e?"
The room fell silent again.
Qin Huairu also became worried: "Impossible. How could he possibly go to Lou Xiao'e?"
Lou Xiao'e had already said she wanted to cut off all contact with him.
People who have done bad things always feel guilty.
The Qinhuai River is the same.
The person she least dared to see and least wanted to see in her life was Lou Xiao'e.
She was afraid that Lou Xiao'e would come back and try to take the family property from her.
Not only Qin Huairu, but the Jia family also did not want Lou Xiao'e to return to Beijing.
They all knew very well how the Jia family acquired their wealth.
"If he didn't go to find Lou Xiao'e, then where did he go? He couldn't have gone to find Li Dong and Li Miao, could he?" Tang Yanling asked疑惑地.
The Jia family members tensed up again. Sha Zhu's son and nephew were their enemies who had come to fight them for the family fortune.
They don't allow Shazhu to have contact with these people.
Qin Huairu displayed the shrewdness of a black-hearted white lotus, immediately instructing the children in her household to make preparations.
“Huaihua, you’re close to Li Miao, why don’t you go find her and ask her what’s going on?”
Xiao Huaihua didn't dare to complain at this point, and reluctantly agreed to go find Li Miao.
Her connection with the Li family had long been severed. Ever since acquiring Lou Xiao'e's estate, the Jia family had been wary of Sha Zhu's relatives trying to seize it.
Every time I saw He Yushui's two children, I just gave them a perfunctory answer.
She had no choice but to go in order to find out more about Sha Zhu's situation.
After instructing Xiao Huaihua, Qin Huairu then instructed Chen Kai, "How is your relationship with the Yan brothers? Go and ask them." Chen Kai agreed and got up to go find Yan Jiefang and his brother.
The Yan brothers' idea was to have their cake and eat it too; in front of Sha Zhu, they didn't show any closeness to the Jia family.
Now, both Liu Guangtian and his brother are in the courtyard house, and he is afraid that the Liu brothers will tell Sha Zhu on them.
After all, the Liu family's specialty is badmouthing people behind their backs.
Yan Jiefang's tone was distant: "What are you doing here?"
Chen Kai had no time to play along and asked directly, "Do you know where Sha Zhu and Xu Damao went?"
They haven't shown up for three or four days.
Yan Jiefang and a few others were also talking about Sha Zhu and Xu Damao.
When they returned to the courtyard house, most of their daily expenses were covered by Sha Zhu.
If Sha Zhu doesn't show up, they'll have to pay out of their own pockets. Once or twice is fine, but after several days in a row, they can't take it anymore.
"Did your family do something bad to Sha Zhu?" Liu Guangfu looked at Chen Kai with suspicion.
If we're talking about the people in this world who would love for Sha Zhu to die early, the Jia family would definitely be number one.
The Jia family is also the most likely to have done something drastic to Sha Zhu.
"Don't talk nonsense." The Jia family really wished Sha Zhu dead, but they were absolutely unwilling to admit it.
The Jia family had considered hiring someone to kill Sha Zhu.
But doing that would be too risky.
The conflict between Sha Zhu and the Jia family is common knowledge. If Sha Zhu gets into trouble, the police will definitely suspect the Jia family first.
Seeing that the Liu brothers didn't believe him, Chen Kai continued to explain, "Shazhu is our stepfather, we would never do anything to him."
This explanation is practically the same as no explanation at all.
Liu Guangtian and the other two knew all too well what kind of people the Jia family were.
Seeing that they still didn't believe him, Chen Kai gave the Yan brothers a look, signaling them to step forward and help.
The Yan family has a cooperation agreement with him.
Yan Jiekuang then stepped forward and said, "Everyone, stop making wild guesses."
Sha Zhu went out with Xu Damao, Yang Feng, and a few others.
"With so many of them going out together, they won't run into any trouble."
"Where could Sha Zhu and Xu Damao go?" Liu Guangfu asked.
Yan Jiekuang couldn't answer that question.
Chen Kai asked, "Didn't they tell you when they left?"
"They just said they were going to see a friend, but they didn't say who the friend was," Liu Guangtian said.
He bumped into Sha Zhu and Xu Damao at the door that day when they went out.
I asked it once, but didn't pay much attention. Sha Zhu didn't have many friends, but Xu Damao had quite a few.
He thought that Sha Zhu had gone out to see his friends with Xu Damao.
Chen Kai looked down on the four of them because they knew nothing when asked.
He hangs out with Sha Zhu every day, yet he doesn't even know where Sha Zhu goes, and he still wants to eat Sha Zhu's childless offspring.
They learned from elementary school to adulthood how Yi Zhonghai did things, and they still don't know how to copy.
"Do you think Sha Zhu might go to Li Dong or He Xiao?"
I think he always wanted to leave his family fortune to them.
Upon hearing this, Liu Guangtian and the other three's expressions changed. The biggest fear when trying to take over someone else's property is that someone will legitimately challenge them for it.
Sha Zhu has fallen out with the Jia family, so the Jia family is no longer a threat. What they fear most are Sha Zhu's son and nephew.
They knew in their hearts that they should stop Sha Zhu, but they didn't know how to stop him.
Just because Yi Zhonghai can do something doesn't mean they can do it too.
In fact, the only people who could make Sha Zhu suffer such a loss were Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu.
They might shout a couple of times, but it won't really have any effect.
"Probably not," Liu Guangtian said. "Even if they went to find Li Dong, they should still come back to live here."
"There are so many of them, they can't all live at Li Dong's house."
Once Chen Kai confirmed that they truly didn't know, he turned and went back, leaving the four of them to speculate in secret. (End of Chapter)
