Zhou Wei faced a room full of people, each of whom bore ill will towards him.
Everyone wanted him dead!
The only thing he had left on him was that bank card that proved his meaning of existence...
"Dad."
Baby's hand was thin but soft. It landed warmly on his face, jolting him out of his daze.
Although Wu Mingyu was holding his arm and tugging at the amulet on his forehead that kept him alive, he couldn't help but turn his face to look at his son.
"Dad..."
Baby noticed that Zhou Wei had responded to his call and called out even more cheerfully. He stretched out his two little hands and struggled towards Zhou Wei. "Hug... hug, Dad..."
Zhou Wei was a bit dazed. In his memory, he had never held the child before. Because Baby was ill, he had been in the intensive care unit right after birth. When his wife called him asking for money, he was lying in Wu Mingyu's arms, indulging in debauchery.
He thought that throwing hundreds of thousands into the hospital was not as imposing as buying something for Wu Mingyu to boost her performance and having the words "Mr. Zhou Wei, Supreme VIP" appear on the huge screen of the high - class banquet hall!
But... this little kid whom he had never cared about or even looked at properly now wanted him to hug him.
Did this mean that the kid needed him?!
As if possessed by a ghost, ignoring the fact that Wu Mingyu was still tugging at the tape on his head, Zhou Wei suddenly turned around and took the child from Zhao Zifeng's arms.
"Hey..."
Wu Mingyu didn't expect Zhou Wei to do this suddenly. The tape had already been torn off by her.
"Dad!! Dad!"
Finally having a loved one respond to him made Baby extremely excited. He bounced in Zhou Wei's arms, and his little face with teardrops broke into a big smile...
Zhou Wei held his son stupidly. He opened his mouth to smile, but tears streamed down the corners of his eyes.
"Stick it on quickly! Stick it on quickly!!"
Wu Mingyu panicked. She couldn't let Zhou Wei die yet! The money couldn't be withdrawn from the card now!
She had tried several times at the ATM, and each time it showed that the password was incorrect. She even went to the bank with the card, but the bank teller required Zhou Wei to be present in person!
In a daze, Zhou Wei saw his wife smiling at him. It seemed that as long as he hugged his son, his wife could forgive him...
Then, Zhou Wei saw two dark shadows slowly seeping out of the wall. At the same time, the sound of rattling chains came from the air.
Zhou Wei shivered and quickly returned Baby to Zhao Zifeng.
Wu Mingyu also re - stuck the broken amulet on Zhou Wei's head.
"A Yu... You're so good to me!"
Zhou Wei wiped his eyes and bared his blood - smeared gums as he grinned.
"Humph..." Wu Mingyu didn't know what Zhou Wei meant by this. Was he mocking her... or really thinking she was okay!
She simply kept silent.
Zhou Wei put his arm around her waist and walked far away from us to the window. "They all want me dead... Only you want me alive."
Zhou Wei touched his forehead and smiled. "I'll quietly tell you the changed password."
"You're finally being sensible!"
Wu Mingyu was happy inside, but put on a pretentious look on her face. "If you had been obedient earlier, would you have suffered so much?"
"You bastard!"
I was standing nearby. Hearing Zhou Wei's words, I was furious. How could there be such a stupid man in the world? I wanted to summon a Yin Thunderbolt to tear him into pieces!
Zhou Wei glanced at me and then looked at Baby in Zhao Zifeng's arms, still struggling and wanting his dad to hug him.
Suddenly, he tightly hugged Wu Mingyu's body and jumped out of the open window.
"Ah!!"
Everyone was shocked. No one had expected that the death - fearing Zhou Wei would actually jump out of the building!
Although the old - style apartment was only five stories high, by the time we rushed to the window and looked down, we only saw two bodies tightly hugging each other. Like a pair of lovers who had committed suicide for love, their blood was all mixed up...
"Hehe..." Zhou Wei's wife finally showed a relieved smile.
She looked at her son reluctantly, then bowed deeply to me and Du Peilin. "Thank you..."
Du Peilin reached out and tapped her forehead lightly. The green amulet immediately rose with a small puff of smoke and disappeared.
Zhou Wei's wife gradually faded from our sight... A gust of wind blew, and she was scattered like a wisp of smoke.
At this time, a commotion of screams came from downstairs.
"Ahhh!! Someone jumped out of the building!!"
"This... This must be because of a serious illness that can't be cured, right..."
"Alas!! It's so pitiful! It's two people! Their relationship is really good!"
"Call 110 quickly!!"
...
There were sighs downstairs. I stood by the window and could see clearly that on the two bodies with their heads smashed to pieces, Wu Mingyu was tugging at Zhou Wei, screaming and scolding.
"You useless bastard. Why did you drag me down with you when you wanted to die!!"
"It's all your fault... You've ruined me..."
Zhou Wei let her pinch him, but his eyes were looking at us upstairs. He waved to me in the distance, and his lips clearly said: "Please."
I knew what he wanted to ask us to do.
Baby's grandparents might not know how to check the inheritance left by Zhou Wei. We might have to help with all this.
I glanced at Du Peilin. This guy was just like my grandpa... uh, like A Wen. He was a money - grubbing miser. I was really afraid that after doing these things, he would ask the two old people for a service fee.
Du Peilin shrugged and laughed. "Xiao He, in your eyes, am I just a miser obsessed with money?"
"Aren't you?"
As I said this, I looked downstairs again.
I saw two faint black mists appear beside the two bodies. Two pitch - black chains hooked onto Zhou Wei and Wu Mingyu.
Zhou Wei didn't struggle at all. He just stared straight at the window where we were. Baby was being held by Zhao Zifeng. He didn't know that his dad was going away forever. He was still happily waving his little hands and saying "bye - bye" to his dad...
Ghosts don't have tears. I didn't know whether the expression on Zhou Wei's face was crying or smiling.
And Wu Mingyu beside him was not so obedient. She let out one shrill scream after another and struggled not to leave.
The black mist immediately transformed into countless thin tentacles that stabbed directly into her soul body, rolled her up like a piece of waste paper, and wrapped her into the mist.
The black mist dissipated. The souls of Zhou Wei and Wu Mingyu had disappeared from the world, leaving only two blood - spattered corpses lying on the ground for people to sigh over...
Soon, the police car with its red and blue lights flashing drove into the scene of the suicide jump.
All of us were taken back to the police station for interrogation and to make statements.
Finally, the result of the police investigation came out. The conclusion was that Zhou Wei had been bewitched by Wu Mingyu and had been imprisoned in the apartment. We had been entrusted by Zhou Wei's father - in - law and mother - in - law to find Zhou Wei, who had been tortured and persecuted. However, when we entered the door, unable to bear Wu Mingyu's abuse, Zhou Wei had grabbed her and jumped out of the building together to commit suicide...
