Chapter 349: Chapter 349: Lost a Million_1

Mother Zhang gasped, “Are you saying, the old master never wronged them?”

“Yes.” Hai Xiaotang nodded.

“What exactly is going on? If it wasn’t the old master, then why did he confess?”

“Mother Zhang, I can’t explain this to you for the time being, I’ll talk about it when I get a chance. All I can say is that grandfather is a good man, he is innocent.”

Mother Zhang sighed, “I’ve always believed the old master to be a good man. He must have admitted it to save you at the beginning. But Dongfang Yu insisted on uncovering the truth and pressuring you all, not believing in the old master… Miss, it’s good that you’re not with him, if it weren’t for him, there wouldn’t be so many issues now…”

Hai Xiaotang was suddenly feeling a bit complicated.

The reason why grandfather didn’t want her to be with Dongfang Yu was because they couldn’t be completely honest and trust each other, right?

Of course, everything that happened over 30 years ago also determined they could not be together.

So it’s better they’re not together, just like Dongfang Yu said, they should each go their own way, that would be best, for everyone.

…

She couldn’t get any information from Dongfang Yu anymore.

Hai Xiaotang could only find her grandfather by herself.

At night, she rummaged around the old man’s study, trying to find some clues.

But other than that mysterious photo, there were no clues…

Sitting at the desk, Hai Xiaotang was pondering when her phone suddenly rang.

The call was from Hua Sheng!

Hai Xiaotang quickly answered, “Hello, Uncle.”

“Chrysanthemum, any news about your grandfather?” Hua Sheng asked her.

Hai Xiaotang said dejectedly, “No.”

“No news at all?”

“Yes.”

Hearing her sorrow, Hua Sheng comforted her, “Don’t worry, your grandfather will definitely be found and he’ll be fine. If you need any help, just tell uncle, even though I’m not in C City, I can ask someone to help you.”

“Okay, thank you, uncle.”

Hua Sheng laughed, “We’re family, no need to be so polite….”

After a few more words with Hua Sheng, Hai Xiaotang hung up the phone.

She picked up the mysterious photo again to examine it closely but still couldn’t make out anything.

If she could just know who the person in the photo is, there might be a clue…

But she couldn’t tell anything right now.

Hai Xiaotang rubbed her temples and decided to rest. Tomorrow, she would have to go to the traffic police team to close the case.

***************

The next day, after breakfast, Hai Xiaotang received a call from the traffic police, asking her to come and close the case.

Her car was also damaged, so she had to take a taxi to the traffic police station.

Dongfang Yu had already sent his car over yesterday.

The traffic police determined from the dashcam that Hai Xiaotang was entirely at fault for the accident. In other words, she had to compensate Dongfang Yu for all the repair costs.

In total, one million!

Hearing this amount, Hai Xiaotang immediately regretted it.

Impulse is really the devil, look, she just lost a million in an instant!

The lesson also told her that she could crash anyone’s car, just not Dongfang Yu’s because she could not afford to!

Nonetheless, Hai Xiaotang readily agreed to pay all the repair costs.

However, to close the case, both parties involved must be present. Since Dongfang Yu hadn’t come, Hai Xiaotang couldn’t close the case.

The traffic police said they had notified him, but he still hadn’t shown up.

After waiting for two hours, Hai Xiaotang directly asked the traffic police for Dongfang Yu’s number and dialed him.
