Chapter 290 Zhou Family
Judging from what the uncle said, Zhao Mingna's father sold her to someone else.
This is outrageous! Killing his wife and selling his daughter—this person is utterly despicable.
Xia Lan shook her head as she listened.
"You wouldn't believe it, this old Zhao is a gambler. His wife had a terrible life following him. You know about the death of his wife, right?" The uncle downed a glass of wine, still feeling unsatisfied.
Shen Tong nodded: "We've heard about this, but we don't know much about Zhao Mingna's situation yet."
The middle-aged man gave him a knowing look and said, "That girl... was sold for this much!" He then held up two fingers.
"Sold for only 200,000?" Shen Tong was somewhat surprised.
"Otherwise what? Do you believe that someone like Old Zhao wouldn't earn 100,000 yuan in his entire life?" The uncle shook his head, his face gradually turning red, indicating that he was quite drunk.
"This guy usually lives off the neighbors' charity. He's run up debts to everyone on this street. He owed me two or three thousand yuan before..." the uncle muttered. "But he's already paid me back... It takes shameless people like him to make money..."
"And this girl is still in the hospital. Someone bought her, so Old Zhao doesn't even need to treat her anymore. Why wouldn't he want that? He doesn't care about the child's life or death; he only cares about money! Even tigers don't eat their cubs..." The uncle got furious as he said this: "You didn't see that smug face of that little man when he came to my place for dinner that night!"
The middle-aged man spat on the ground as he spoke: "Money earned by selling one's wife and children, it's truly filthy!"
"Brother, did you see who bought his daughter?" Shen Tong wanted to investigate further and see if he could find out anything.
"I don't know, but the car that came that day was really luxurious. I even took a picture. Let me show you!" The uncle said, taking out his phone and showing the two of them the photos.
"Maybach..." Xia Lan frowned. This is not a car that ordinary people can afford.
"You even recognize luxury cars?" Shen Tong joked. "I only recognize a Ferrari, and that's because I encountered it in another storyline before."
Xia Lan rolled her eyes at her, too lazy to explain. After all, she was the female lead from a domineering CEO novel, and the unimportant male lead back then drove this car, so she knew.
Seeing Xia Lan's serious expression, Shen Tong wondered if she already had a plan: "You think it's the Zhou family's car?"
Xia Lan nodded. It was pretty much true. As for whether it was true or not, sending the photos to Lu He would make it clear. It was easy for the Han family to check a car.
Xia Lan forwarded the photo to Lu He and planned to call her to ask, but unexpectedly the call didn't go through.
It made me feel a little uneasy.
We need to get back quickly.
It's likely that Zhao Mingna was bought by the Zhou family. Initially, they were afraid that if Old Zhao made a big fuss online, it would be detrimental to the Zhou family, since lending money and violent debt collection are illegal.
If the death of Lao Zhao's wife implicates Zhao Mingna, and combined with the school incident, it could become very troublesome. Once it gets out, it will be difficult to suppress.
However, since the Zhou family is so afraid, it means that Zhao Mingna knows Zhou Boming and has evidence to implicate him, which forced the Zhou family to take her away.
"Uncle, do you know which hospital Zhao Mingna is hospitalized in?" Xia Lan thought that no matter what, the Zhou family should have a record of taking over her medical expenses.
The uncle nodded and gave Xia Lan an address: Huaren Hospital.
Xia Lan stood up and said goodbye to Shen Tong: "You continue to gather information here, I'll go to the hospital to look for clues about Zhao Minna..."
Huaren Hospital isn't far from here, only about a 20-minute drive.
It's one of the larger and better-equipped hospitals in the city. Looking down the street, you can see a sign for a psychiatric hospital called Tianren Hospital at the intersection ahead.
