Chapter 34: In the guise of support

Chapter 34 - In the guise of supportThe devil doctor, Yang Mingshen with an arrogant smirk on his devilishly handsome face, royally stepped in as if he owned the bureau. Dai Fengge gnashed his jaw. "Why is he here? A doctor who blatantly refused to treat a patient!" "I must ask why are you still here?" Mingshen sneered. "A husband who blatantly had an affair outside his marriage. You should have already gotten buried deep into the ground by your wife. I must say she is very merciful." Dai Fengge threw a panicked and anxious look at Dai Meihui, but she didn't react much this whole time. She heard their conversation but maintained her silence. Jia cleared her throat to stop the argument before it turned ugly. "He is here to inform you and your wife about the result of the analysis of Mrs. Dai's attack." "Yes, please tell me! How..." his voice broke and tears pooled in his eyes, "h-how did my mother got an allergic reaction in the middle of watching a movie? And why are you here, Xiaoling?" She clutched her dress in her fist but didn't respond. Jia said, "Before we tell you that, we have called in the other witness, and we have to show you something too." Ma Zhilan also arrived at the police station by then, accompanied by her daughter-in-law, who wore a business suit and took large, confident strides. Dai Meihui stared at the incoming figure. "You..." Ma Zhilan looked at her direction and blinked. Then a gasp escaped a second later. "Dai Meihui...You are Dai Meihui, right?" "Yes. Hello, Miss. Ma." Jia asked in surprise, "You two have met before?" Ma Zhilan nodded with vigor. "Yes, yes. How can I forget her? She was the one who had helped us find Juan when she had lost her way some time back..." Ma Yanyu widened her eyes. "It was her?" "Yes. I wished you two could meet after she found Juan, but she was in a hurry." "Oh..." Jia thought that Ma Yanyu would feel thrilled about meeting the savior who had helped find her daughter but instead, a sense of strain enveloped her expression. Ma Yanyu expressed her gratitude to Dai Meihui, albeit with tension laced in her smile. "Thank you so much for helping us out that day. If not for you then..."

Mingshen tilted his head and said, "Your mother-in-law has cool eyesight." Jia's brow twitched, his strange statement throwing her off her train of thoughts. Ma Yanyu was taken aback by the random comment. "T-thanks...?" "So why was such a cool grandma all alone in the theater yesterday?" Discomfort was evident in her countenance. "That..." Ma Zhilan smiled. "I like to spend some alone time." Mingshen gazed into her eyes and snorted. "There is this man," he pointed his finger at Dai Fengge, "who came to watch a movie with the wrong family and then there is this cool grandma with the cool eyesight who came with no family at all." Silence. Mingshen had the art of poking at the place where it hurt the most. "Heyyyy why are you all so stiff?" Mingshen laughed. "I was just pointing at the amazing contrast which turns out to be an amazing joke as well~" From everybody's expressions, it was clear that only Huojin appreciated Mingshen's witty joke. Jia leaned towards Mingshen and whispered, "Do you always have to be such a pain in the ass?" "How will you enjoy your life if I stop being a pain in the ass, Spicy?" He smiled. Jia looked back at Ma Zhilan and said, "Thank you for coming, Miss. Ma. We called you here because we have learned how Mrs. Dai suffered her attack. But before we go into that, Mr. Dai." "Yes?" Huojin took out a sealed bag and placed it before him. "Is this Mrs. Dai's inhaler?" Dai Fengge stared at the inhaler inside the envelope and gasped. "Yes! This is her inhaler!" Mingshen casually tossed a file on the table. "The DNA confirms that too. The remnants of the saliva traces on the inhaler's mouth have matched her DNA." "Wh-where did you find it?" Dai Fengge tearfully asked. "In the trash can." "Sorry what?" He was dumbfounded. "How could it be in a trash can?" "Which is why we summoned Miss. Yin here," Jia glanced at her. "She was the one who threw the inhaler into the garbage bin." Jia played the CCTV footage again in front of everyone. Dai Fengge stared at Yin Xiaoling, aghast. "What is this Xiaoling? How can it be you...? Why would you do that?" Yin Xiaoling silently exhaled but said nothing for a long time. "Xia-Xiaoling, answer something! You...I trusted you, Xiaoling! More importantly, my mom trusted you and loved you! How..." he trembled in anger, "how could you do this to her!?" Jia felt irked. By this point, it was as if he had completely forgotten that Dai Meihui was right beside him and practically openly admitting his affair. Can I punch him just once? Yin Chin, her aunt, anxiously intervened. "You are misunderstanding Fengge. There must be-" Compared to the day when Yin Xiaoling shed tears and supported Dai Fengge in his grief, she now gazed at Dai Fengge with a bitter look and cut her aunt off midway. "Because she was a pathetic person. Your mother was nothing but a sadistic bitch who enjoyed seeing others getting tormented." Dai Fengge was stunned to feel the iciness in her demeanor. Even Jia found it difficult to digest this change. Yin Chin choked and threw glares towards her niece, but she didn't bother. "You...how dare you curse my mother!" He roared. "Shut up! It's out so I don't care anyway. I will curse her how much ever I want because she deserved it. On the outside it looked like she supported me being with you, but only I know how she always tried to control me! She was...weird. Whenever you took me to meet her outside, she acted like things always had to go her way. She had this..." she gritted her teeth, "she had this cynical way of treating me as if she was above everyone else!" It was faint but Jia caught Dai Meihui slightly trembling. "She never talked to me normally but only made snide comments instead. 'Xiaoling, you look so beautiful. I guess there is some appeal in wearing short length dresses, right?' 'That was some lovely mapo tofu you cooked, dear. But you know what? Fengge likes the mapo tofu I make so much. It's his favorite. How about I teach you that recipe next time? I know it will be difficult for you to make it exactly like I do, but I am sure Fengge will appreciate your effort and will like you even more.' 'I am sorry dear but isn't that lipstick too dark of a shade? My Fengge wouldn't like it. It would only bring unnecessary attention your way.' 'Oh Fengge doesn't like that color, dear. How about I help you pick a gift for him? I know his choices the best.' 'It will take some time for Yun to adjust to you, but don't worry. It will be hard for you as you are not his real mother. Plus you are young too so it's difficult to be responsible. But I will definitely help you. I am his grandmother after all.'" That is definitely bitchy and messed up, Jia inwardly grimaced. Mingshen broke the angry silence with his hearty laughter. "That woman is definitely one bitch."
