You should read chapter 72 that should be posted 2 days ago first, lol, I forgot to click schedule button and I just realize it now 
Yan Kai and Zhao Liang’s mother, Zhao Dayong’s sister-in-law, Yan Hui, shared the same surname, whether he was Yan Hui’s real brother or not, at present, Yue Xingwen had only a theoretical speculation, there was no actual evidence, and there were still many doubts.
——If he was Yan Hui’s younger brother, how could Zhao Liang act unfamiliar with him? Did Zhao Liang not know this uncle? Buf if he had nothing to do with Yan Hui and just happened to have the same surname, then how could he explain what he did at the construction site?
Yue Xingwen told Liu Zhaoqing to ask Zhao Liang personally. Senior brother Liu had chatted a lot with Zhao Liang in the past few days, and whenever he had time, he would comfort this teenager who had just lost his relatives. The relationship between both of them had gradually become familiar, and Zhao Liang was also willing to talk to him.
Liu Zhaoqing pretended to ask casually, “A-Liang, do you have any other relatives at home now?”
Zhao Liang shook his head and said, “No.”
Liu Zhaoqing said, “Your father had a younger brother, Dayong, what about your mother? Is there no other siblings in the family?”
Zhao Liang was silent for a moment before he said, “I don’t know. For as long as I can remember, my mother never went back to her maiden’s house. Everyone in the village said she was an orphan and that my father took her in… I had never heard her talk about grandfather or grandmother either.”
The teenager did not look like he was lying. Liu Zhaoqing paused, followed up and asked, “Then, do you know where your mother’s hometown is? Maybe there are other relatives?”
Zhao Liang bit his lip and said, “My mother is from Xiuhe Town near city B. She never went back to her hometown, and I don’t want to go to those relatives in her hometown. Those people didn’t care about her when my mother was alive, and there’s no way they’d take me in if I go to them.”
He paused and looked up at Liu Zhaoqing. “Don’t worry brother Liu. My uncle had already gone, and I got the compensation. I will use this money to learn a skill properly in the future. Both aunt Xuemei and uncle Zhao Qiang will take care of me.”
Liu Zhaoqing gently patted him on the shoulder and said, “You are still young, live well in the future.”
Liu Zhaoqing relayed Zhao Liang’s answer to Yue Xingwen. Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce glanced at each other and analyzed, “It seems that Zhao Liang’s mother Yan Hui’s family might have had an incident as well. Her hometown is near city B, isn’t this Jiang Dexin’s hometown?”
Jiang Pingce said, “Suppose, Yan Hui’s parents had also met with an accident and were related to Jiang Dexin?”
Liu Zhaoqing sighed. “Then Yan Hui’s family would have even more reason to take revenge.”
Yue Xingwen said, “Check the history of the establishment of the Dexin Group carefully.”
Ke Shaobin had downloaded the information of Dexin Group before. Upon hearing this, he immediately opened his laptop.
According to official information, Dexin Group was established 10 years ago and was registered in city A. Jiang Dexin started from scratch, made the real estate company bigger and stronger. The business became more and more prosperous, becoming a well-known entrepreneur representative in city A. Although he often operated in city A, his hometown was actually far away in city B, and he was also… a person from the city B, Xiuhe Town.
Ke Shaobin pointed at the line and said excitedly, “His hometown is in the same place as Zhao Liang’s mother’s hometown!”
Xu Yishen squinted his eyes at the laptop screen and said thoughtfully, “From the information, Jiang Dexin’s parents are farmers with little income, and he himself isn’t a graduate of a famous university. It is impossible to get a bank loan approved directly to people like him who have no economic base and no family backing if he wants to start a business from scratch. So, where did his first pot of gold come from?”
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
To start a business, a starting capital was a must. People could not just use their mouth and had other people invested in you. Jiang Dexin, a person with no background. Where did he get the money to register and establish a real estate company?

Yue Xingwen nodded. “Yan Hui married Zhao Dacheng and gave birth to Zhao Liang twenty years ago. Yan Hui had no relatives from her maiden family to attend her wedding when she got married, which is why the people of Zhao Village thought she was an orphan. Zhao Liang hadn’t heard her mention relatives such as grandparents and uncles or aunts, which meant that if something happened to the Yan family, it would definitely be before she got married.”
Assuming something happened to Yan Hui’s family before she got married, it would make sense that she would refuse to mention her family in front of her husband and son.
Jiang Dexin was in his 40s, and 20 years ago he was right around 20 years old. After returning to his hometown in Xiuhe Town, had he done anything harmful?
It was hard to find out what happened 20 years ago, and most of the news was drowned out. Ke Shaobin searched for a long time before he found a local media report in the inconspicuous corner: ‘There is a pair of elderly people in Xiuhe Town lost hundreds of thousands of pensions because of the failure of investment, and committed suicide by turning on gas at home in despair. There were also several elderly people who committed suicide by jumping off the building. Xiuhe Town did have an illegal fundraising case that year, but the suspect fled with the money and was not caught.”
Everyone: “……”
The elderly were the most gullible group. Those fraudsters under the guise of ‘high interest, high return’, send some eggs, fruits, and defraud their pension. At the beginning, there would be a little interest and sweetness given to them. After the elderly saw that the interest was so high, naturally they would increase the investment, and even pull relatives to invest together to finally lose everything they invested.
There were too many such scams. Yue Xingwen asked in a low voice, “The elderly who committed suicide, surnamed Yan?”
Ke Shaobin nodded. “Yan and Liang, from Xiuhe Town, were around 60 years old when they committed suicide.”
Yue Xingwen looked at Jiang Pingce, who calmly said, “These two elderly are Yan Hui and Yan Kai’s parents. They were cheated out of their family fortune and committed suicide by turning on the gas in despair. Yan Hui and Yan Kai might have witnessed the tragic death of their parents and did not want to mention it again. So, Zhao Liang had never heard his mother mention his grandfather and grandmother.”
Yue Xingwen said, “The suspect fled with the money? Jiang Dexin must be related to this fraud organization, and this money was pocketed by Jiang Dexin after turning around outside the country, becoming the first pot of gold for the ‘Dexin Group’ started by Jiang Dexin. 20 years ago, Jiang Dexin, the profiteers, must have erased the relevant evidence, and even if the people of Xiuhe Town know something, there is no way to sue him.”
Jiang Pingce said, “Later, in Zhao Village’s Qingshui Bay project, Zhao Anming mentioned that after Zhao Dayong’s brother died in an accidental fall, his sister-in-law went to the other side to seek justice… The words ‘Seeking Justice’ might include the death of the parents back then?”
Yue Xingwen agreed and said, “If it’s just her husband accidentally falling off the building, Jiang Dexin can just pay her some money, there is no need to kill her. However, Yan Hui was hit and killed by a car when she went to ask for an explanation, so she was obviously silenced, which means that the matter Yan Hui wanted to seek justice for was not simple. It’s likely to involve the inside story of Jiang Dexin’s fundraising fraud many years ago?”
Xu Yishen frowned and said, “Yan Hui might not know much about legal common sense, thinking that she could get more compensation if she went to make trouble, but she didn’t expect Jiang Dexin to be ruthless and directly create a traffic accident to kill her.”
Ke Shaobin seriously concluded, “The parents lost their pensions and committed suicide by turning on the gas 20 years ago; The sister was hit and killed by a car a few years ago, and all of this related to Jiang Dexin. Yan Kai hates Jiang Dexin to the bone, and has a sufficient motive for the crime?”
Yue Xingwen replied, “Check Yan Kai’s resume.”
Ke Shaobin quickly searched for relevant information and said, “Yan Kai is 35 years old this year, his education is not high, and he has been working everywhere after graduation without a stable job. Three years ago, he came to the 8th Engineering Team in city A and has been working with the engineering team.”
Jiang Pingce said, “Nowadays, Jiang Dexin is already a well-known local entrepreneur, the boss of Dexin Group. It’s difficult for Yan Kai, as a construction team person to see president Jiang, so even if Yan Kai hates president Jiang to the bone, he can’t do anything to him.”
Yue Xingwen carefully ran through the timeline and concluded, “The 8th construction team of his city happened to cooperate with Dexin Group to develop the Xinyue Plaza project. When the project was launched in March, president Jiang must have come to the construction site. Upon seeing him, Yan Kai’s idea of killing the other party came to his mind, but there wasn’t the right time at that time; It wasn’t until September that Zhao Dayong’s arrival made him think of a brilliant way.”
Ke Shaobin continued his words and said, “Use Zhao Dayong as bait to lure out Jiang Dexin!”
Liu Zhaoqing said, “Zhao Dayong shouldn’t know him, but he knows that his sister married to Zhao Village, and he also knows the truth about her death. As long as he told Zhao Dayong that ‘I’m your sister-in-law, Yan Hui’s real brother’, Zhao Dayong would naturally get close to him quickly.”
Xu Yishen added, “If others told Zhao Dayong to commit suicide and that person will help you revenge, Zhao Dayong might still be suspicious. However, the other party is his sister-in-law’s brother, and he might promise to take good care of A-Liang, so that Zhao Dayong can die with confidence!”
That way, all the clues could be linked together.
“In September, Zhao Dayong came to the construction site. Yan Kai took the initiative to identify himself. Upon hearing that A-Liang actually had an uncle, Zhao Dayong felt emotional and told the other party he had liver cancer, hoping that once he died, the other party could take care of A-Laing.”
“Knowing that Zhao Dayong was suffering from terminal liver cancer, Yan Kai came up with a plan to lure the snake out of the hole and conferred with Zhao Dayong, suggesting that he commit suicide. On one hand, Zhao Dayong didn’t want his condition to drag his nephew down, but on the other hand, he was haunted by the death of his brother and sister-in-law and had been trying to find out the truth. Two people hit it off, and Zhao Dayong found the right time to commit suicide on the night of the leaders’ inspection. Yan Kai operated the Weibo account that he had bought long ago to send photos, going on the hot search, led to Jiang Dexin, the poisonous snake, and then used the fundraising fraud case and the Qingshui Bay’s murder and extermination case as threats to ask Jiang Dexin to come out for a negotiation.”
“Jiang Dexin didn’t expect the old account from 20 years would be turned over, let alone the fact that Yan Hui had a younger brother. He went to the appointment alone with a guilty conscience, wanted to send the other party with money, but was kidnapped by the strong Yan Kai to the construction site. In the middle of the night, Yan Kai took him into the building and when he woke up, Yan Kai sealed him inch by inch into the walls with cement, leaving him to die slowly in fear and despair.”
After listening to Yue Xingwen’s analysis, Liu Zhaoqing and Xu Yishen looked at each other and lamented, “This makes the logic complete.”
Ke Shaobin adjusted his glasses and said, “Jiang Dexin really deserved to die. However, Yan Kai is also hidden too deep, he is actually Zhao Dayong’s sister-in-law’s brother. Previously, we had been entangled with the Zhao Village, simply not associated with this aspect of sister-in-law’s relatives…”
Liu Zhaoqing scratched the back of his head and said, “There is only one last question left—— yesterday afternoon, Yan Kai was at the construction site, right? No one saw him go out. How did he kidnap Jiang Dexin over? Did he have helpers outside?”
Yue Xingwen thought carefully and suddenly his eyes lit up. “Just because he hadn’t gone out didn’t mean he hadn’t left! Don’t forget he’s the warehouse supervisor, he’s been following the construction team for years and is very familiar with the project!”
Zhang Xiaonian froze, reacting to what Yue Xingwen meant. “Could it be that there are still underground passages over there in the warehouse?”
Yue Xingwen said, “When you asked the workers about it, did you ask Yan Kai where he went yesterday afternoon?”
Lin Manluo raised her hand and said, “I asked, Yan Kai went to sleep in the warehouse yesterday afternoon, went in at noon, and slept until late in the evening. That said, no one can testify whether he was in the warehouse during this period or not. Because he is so fierce that the workers are afraid to approach him.”
He was alone in the warehouse and it looked like he had a good alibi, after all, he had never left the construction site. But what if, from the moment he plotted the murder in September, he had dug an underground access road through the warehouse?
It went straight from the warehouse to the underground parking lot and out through the outside manhole cover, unnoticed and unseen.
He was the warehouse supervisor at the construction site and usually visited the warehouse so often that the workers had long been used to it and would not suspect him of sneaking out of the warehouse. But in fact, his alibi was ‘alone’ and there were no witnesses.
Yue Xingwen looked at Qin Lu and said, “Go over with the plate movement to see.”
Qin Lu immediately took out the globe and sent everyone straight into the warehouse. Everyone knocked around on the ground for a while, and soon, Zhang Xiaonian’s voice came from the corner, “There’s a hole in the ground here!”
Everyone ran over in unison. An underground passage had been dug out at the corner of the warehouse, which should have been dug out slowly with a shovel over a long period of time; the perimeter of the passage was not even, but it was enough for an adult to pass through.
Qin Miao, with a lean figure, took the initiative to climb down the passage, and Xin Yan brought a spirit lamp to light the way afterwards.
—— At the end of the passage, it was indeed the underground parking lot.
This was the real reason why Yan Kai beat up Zhao Liang and drove him away. Only if Zhao Liang was not in the dormitory could he went to the warehouse alone without any worries, left the construction site through the warehouse and carried out his sophisticated murder plan!
Yue Xingwen finally decided to call the police.
Yan Kai’s parents and sister were both killed by Jiang Dexin. Yan Kai had no evidence to turn him in, let alone put him in jail, so Yan Kai used the most radical way possible and killed Jiang Dexin himself.
Yan Kai’s approach was understandable, but there were police in this world. There was a legal system, and it was impossible for them to shield the murderer. The next thing was to leave it to the police to deal with was the best choice.
After calling the police, the police did come to the scene quickly and found the hole in the ground that Yan Kai had dug out in the warehouse, and also found the body of Jiang Dexin sealed in the wall.
Yan Kai seemed to have expected it earlier, and his expression was extremely calm.
Zhao Liang watched blankly as this ‘roommate’ was taken away by the police.
Yan Kai walked to the entrance of the construction site and suddenly looked back at Zhao Liang. “Do you know why I beat you?”
Zhao Liang was a little afraid of him and shrunk his neck.
The next moment, he heard him saying in a deep voice, “In order to support you, your uncle is working hard outside to earn money, and you delay your studies with a group of hooligans to play games! An indisputable bastard like you, ashamed of your parents and uncle’s soul in Heaven, that beating I gave you was a light blow, I should have crippled you to make you remember!”
Zhao Liang’s face turned pale, lowered his head, and whispered, “I-I know I was wrong.”
Yan Kai said, “You’re still young, be an upright person in the future—— They are all watching you from Heaven.”
The man followed the policemen and turned to leave the construction site, and Zhao Liang watched his back for a long time in silence. Zhao Anming sighed softly, patted the teenager on the shoulder and said, “He has the same surname as your mother.”
Zhao Liang was stunned. “Ah? What do you mean uncle Ming?”
Zhao Anming smiled and looked at Yan Kai’s back, then said, “It’s nothing. You are really an orphan now. However, in the future, the people in our Zhao Village are all your relatives, and everyone will take care of you.”
Zhao Liang choked out a muffled sob as he looked back at Zhao Xuemei and said seriously, “Aunt Xuemei, I want to go back to high school and repeat, can you help me go back to school to go through the formalities?”
Zhao Xuemei was both surprised and excited as she asked in a trembling voice, “A-Liang, are you sure you want to go back to school? It’s only been less than a month since school started, so it’s not too late for you to go back to school if you want to!”
Zhao Liang nodded vigorously and said, “I used to have good grades, but I loved to play too much. After my parents died, I felt that I had no one to care for, so I indulged myself, skipped class, and played games… I now know it’s wrong, and I want to go back to school.”
The teenager said with a firm gaze, “I want to repeat my studies and get into a good university! My dad and my uncle are carpenters and cement workers, both have a relationship with the construction site. I want to learn architectural design, and become a good architectural designer in the future!”
Zhao Xuemei hugged him excitedly, “That’s great!”
Several people from Zhao Village looked at each other and showed expressions of relief.
Dayong, did you see it? A-Liang was sensible.
Was not expecting that ending
Neither was I. Thought it was the nephew as the main culprit and the other Zhaos as accomplices up until the end of the last chapter.
poor Zhao Liang :-[
thanks for the chapter! <3 looking forward to their next class
Does he call his fiancee “aunt”? Very strange.Or I miss understand smf?
Thank you very much for the translation 💙💙💙💙💙💙
And here I thought there’s another Zhao amongst them. ZX is the same age as his uncle maybe it’s a habit… Imagine calling your gf aunt because she’s older. 😅
Considering that the wife is slang for “old woman” in China, in my opinion it sounds logical, lol
Zhao Qiang (another older construction worker) is the fiance not Zhao Liang (the nephew) 😂
Да, наверное, ты прав!
Man they fr gave them a movie script
Wah didn’t expect it at all :0 fr the twist was good I kinda hoped there was another zhao collab with Yan Kai but having them all be red herrings is really :000
