Chapter 905: Chapter 903: A Mom Obsessed with Getting Rich Every Day 5
However, they were too naive. In front of the police, their little tricks were not worth mentioning.
The police clearly observed their previous reactions, and coupled with Zhang Shiying’s mention that today these two teenagers came looking for Yang Hongyu to go fishing in the river. How the person died was not yet certain, but these two teenagers should be aware of the situation.
The commotion at the scene was halted, ignoring the pleas from the Jiang Family, Jiang Yue and Jiang Xiangyang were taken to the police station.
The Jiang Family had no choice but to follow.
Meanwhile, Zhang Shiying was laughing maniacally: "I told you these two little brats had problems. Now the police officers think so too. You killed my grandson; don’t think about running away! Such heartless little fiends should be shot!"
The Jiang Family did not look happy, and their spirits were low.
Previously, they noticed the panic on Jiang Xiangyang and Jiang Yue’s faces but just wanted to let it pass.
At this moment, they regretted calling the police.
No matter how much they regretted it, Jiang Xiangyang and Jiang Yue had to be questioned. With their limited abilities, they quickly confessed the whole story.
The two stated they indeed wanted to save Yang Hongyu but really couldn’t hold on to him, so they had to go ashore first, feeling terrified at the time, they ran to the town to surf the internet.
What Zhang Shiying envisioned as execution was, of course, impossible. They wouldn’t even spend time in prison.
This infuriated Zhang Shiying, causing a scene at the police station.
As for the aftermath, Ah Chen did not witness it. Seeing that it had nothing to do with her, and with night falling, An Shuo Hai took her back.
"That foul-mouthed old lady Zhang Shiying will surely not let Xiaoqing and the others off now," Liang Xuefang said. "With this incident, the two children panicked and ran away."
An Shuo Hai said, "Running away wasn’t right, they should have returned to inform the villagers, maybe there was still hope."
It’s hard to predict what people will do when panicked. Similar incidents have happened many times, but those with a conscience would call for help.
Throughout the journey, An Shuo Hai was much quieter than usual, but Liang Xuefang didn’t notice, she kept talking, from Zhang Shiying’s stubbornness to the possibility of both families having to pay compensation.
Ah Chen noticed something was off about An Shuo Hai. She guessed that he was thinking about the motorcycle failing to start inexplicably after noon, the sudden appearance of a stone blocking the road, and ultimately not going to town as intended.
An Shuo Hai was indeed thinking about this. Based on the information he knew, if he and An Miao had gone to town, they should have encountered the drowning Yang Hongyu. They wouldn’t have called others for help, as they both could swim and were skilled at it.
He would definitely jump in to save the person first.
He didn’t believe that with his skills, he wouldn’t be able to save a person, especially with his eldest son An Miao with him.
However, this world has too many accidents.
If he really went to town, would some accident have happened?
Thinking about Yang Hongyu, a child of only fifteen, losing his life like this, he felt a sense of sorrow. For things that didn’t happen, An Shuo Hai couldn’t predict what would occur.
But the loss of a vibrant life troubled him deeply.
This is being a good person.
Ah Chen thought so. Even though the Yang Family wasn’t good, with Yang Hongyu now dead, An Shuo Hai, realizing he might have been able to save the person, still felt uneasy in his heart.
The other party didn’t know what saving a person would lead to; it’s normal for someone with a good heart to think this way.
If this matter persists in his mind, it won’t be good.
Thinking about it, Ah Chen communicated with the commissioner, wanting to use dreams to reveal events of the past life to An Shuo Hai.
Otherwise, given his character, even with her watching, he might easily get scammed.
Being forewarned, An Shuo Hai might feel shocked and in disbelief, but at least he would be prepared. If things just drag on and something happens later, it would still hurt him.
The commissioner originally didn’t want Dad and Brother to find out, but after listening to Ah Chen’s analysis, understood that with her mom’s disposition, sooner or later it may harm Dad and Brother, so giving a dream warning is also good.
Back home, An Miao also noticed his father wasn’t quite himself today.
He only assumed it was because a child from the village drowned, which made his father unhappy, not expecting anything else, nor did he associate it with the big stone.
After returning home, An Shuo Hai continued fiddling with his motorcycle.
"Hey, why are you messing with that broken motorcycle again?" Liang Xuefang was exasperated, "Can’t you eat first?"
An Miao didn’t follow to town, instead stayed home cooking, so they could eat as soon as they returned. However, too many things happened today, leaving the family without much appetite.
"You guys go ahead and eat, I’ll check again." As soon as he finished speaking, the motorcycle started, surprising An Shuo Hai.
What’s going on?
He just wanted to try it, not expecting anything else.
This made today’s events seem even more eerie.
He was curious about why such strange events occurred; was it possible that going to town today with his son would really lead to bad events?
With such thoughts, An Shuo Hai went to have dinner, though he still had no appetite.
"What, is it working again?" Liang Xuefang asked, having heard the sound of the engine starting earlier.
An Shuo Hai responded, heavily burdened with thoughts.
Late at night, after falling asleep, An Shuo Hai had a long dream, as if living an entire lifetime within it.
The questions from before sleep were answered in the dream.
He thought the worst scenario in the dream would be if he and his son drowned, leaving some money and accident insurance, ensuring his wife and daughter wouldn’t live too poorly.
But he was too naive.
The rescued Yang Hongyu surprisingly lied.
Without his guidance, his wife actually implemented her whimsical ideas, quickly squandering the wealth he accumulated, and even ruined their excellent student daughter. Witnessing those scenes, he almost spat blood from rage, his heart itching with hatred.
He couldn’t comprehend how his wife, whom he just thought had minor quirks and a sharp tongue, would turn out like that.
For the dream of being rich, she squandered the family’s assets and even considered exchanging their daughter for dowry to continue her grand dreams, ultimately ruining the daughter’s life.
The Liang Xuefang in the dream felt unfamiliar.
Suddenly waking up, despite sleeping all night, An Shuo Hai felt exhausted in body and mind.
Realizing it was only a dream, he couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief. However, except for the events that didn’t occur, things that did happen in the dream were astonishingly identical.
Imagining the dream scenario and Yang Hongyu, he felt very conflicted.
If the dream was like reality, even with his kind heart, he couldn’t muster any compassion for Yang Hongyu.
In the dream, due to Yang Hongyu, the ingrate, his family was ruined.
Thinking again about Jiang Xiangyang and Jiang Yue running away, he felt it wasn’t just a dream.
"Early in the morning, what are you dazing about?" Liang Xuefang asked.
An Shuo sat up, hiding the complexity in his eyes: "Had a nightmare."
A very frightening nightmare.
He glanced at Liang Xuefang. Whether the dream was real or not depended on Xu Yue. In the dream, Xu Yue wasn’t successful at all, the guy was a complete fraud.
During breakfast, Ah Chen observed An Shuo Hai’s state, knowing the dream had left a lasting impression on him.
