Liu Bo rubbed his eyes, making sure he wasn't mistaken. When he read the first line, he felt that this woman had a rather tragic life - she only had a mother since childhood, came from a very ordinary family, her mother worked as a housekeeper, and now suffered from such a serious illness.
But as he read to the end, he was shocked to discover that Zhou Man's mother, Zhou Xiuxiu, had never been married or pregnant, which meant Zhou Man wasn't Zhou Xiuxiu's biological daughter.
What an incredible coincidence - Zhou Man turned out to be the daughter of the CEO's stepmother!!!
Liu Bo had no idea how the detectives had uncovered this, but there was even a DNA paternity test included.
What was even more alarming was the detailed record of Zhou Man's previous acquaintance with Xu Zhengyang, and how they had even become intimate.
Liu Bo's worldview was completely shattered. It was all too dramatic.
This was beyond his comprehension. Sitting in his office, staring at his phone, Liu Bo felt at a loss. Should he release all the evidence?
This involved the Xu Group. Liu Bo couldn't understand how Xu Xiuhe could be so calm about it, casually saying, "Just clear things up."
After careful consideration, Liu Bo decided to call Xu Xiuhe.
"CEO, should we release all the dirt on Zhou Man? Including those things at the end of the document."
"Release it all. We warned her before, but she didn't know what was good for her."
"Understood." Liu Bo was about to hang up.
Xu Xiuhe's curiosity was piqued. He wondered what was at the bottom of the document that made Liu Bo call specifically to ask about it.
"Wait, what's at the end?"
When Xu Xiuhe asked this, Liu Bo suddenly remembered that the CEO was temporarily blind and had no idea about the explosive news at the bottom.
"Well, sir, it turns out this woman is Yang Cui's daughter."
Xu Xiuhe was momentarily stunned. Zhou Man was Yang Cui's daughter?
"CEO, are you still there?" Liu Bo, hearing no response from the other end, thought there might be a problem with the signal and asked again.
"I'm listening."
"This Zhou Man was born to Yang Cui and another man. Later, she abandoned the child because she thought the man was poor and came to Rong City. The man, disappointed that the child was a girl, abandoned her. Later, Zhou Xiuxiu found the child, took pity on her, and raised her herself, never marrying."
As Xu Xiuhe listened to this story from 26 or 27 years ago, he could only sigh. One woman's selfishness had ruined two lives, especially that of the woman called Zhou Xiuxiu.
Zhou Man was pitiful, but compared to children in orphanages, she was much luckier.
"Don't release the last bit of information for now. Release all the previous dirt, focusing on her fraud."
Fraud? Liu Bo understood in seconds. Wasn't this indeed fraud? She had deceived so many men - a new type of scam, deceiving people's feelings and money, and when that failed, resorting to blackmail and extortion.
Quickly, Liu Bo used Heyuan Group's official account to post about how the wife of Heyuan Group had been scammed abroad. The key point was that they were just friends, not as Zhou Man had claimed. Liu Bo also released the text messages Zhou Man had sent to Shen Yin as evidence, along with many examples of Zhou Man knowingly being the third party just to scam money.
Soon, the direction of public opinion online began to change. Shen Yin gradually became seen as the victim, and netizens' focus became increasingly intrigued.
After all, the evidence released was crystal clear. Regardless of gender, people began to curse this woman called Zhou Man. Many didn't even notice the hot search about Shen Yin.
Not only men cursed her, but women did too. Men cursed because this woman was too vicious, first seducing and enticing, then threatening. Women cursed because Zhou Man was shameless, knowingly being a mistress.
Many people began to tag Pei City's police. Quite a few men in Pei City had been scammed. The number of spectators grew larger and larger. At first, it was just people from Rong City and Pei City following the drama, but on the internet, news spreads fast. This could be considered a large-scale fraud, and this woman could be considered quite a "talent."
By noon, people across the country were following the drama.
At the same time, the police knocked on the door of Zhou Xiuxiu's home.
"Hello, are you Zhou Man's mother?"
Zhou Xiuxiu rarely went out or browsed the internet. After recovering from her illness, she had been resting at home. Another important reason was that Zhou Man kept everything from Zhou Xiuxiu; Zhou Xiuxiu didn't even know her daughter had gotten married.
"I am. What's wrong? Did something happen to Man Man?" Zhou Xiuxiu's tone was full of worry.
"Where is Zhou Man currently? She's suspected of multiple fraud cases."
The police officer showed his badge.
Zhou Xiuxiu was stunned for a long time before asking, "Officer, you must have the wrong person. How could our Man Man possibly commit fraud?"
"We have sufficient evidence and multiple witnesses. We're now arresting Zhou Man."
"I don't know where Man Man is. She told me she's busy with work, calls me once a week to ask about my health, and sends me money once a month. I don't know anything else."
"Do you know that she married Guo Wei?"
"Who's Guo Wei?"
"Guo Wei of the Guo Group, 56 years old this year."
Zhou Xiuxiu clearly didn't believe it. "That's impossible. How could she marry a man even older than me? It must be false. No, no, you've got the wrong person."
The woman clearly didn't believe it, shaking her head continuously.
Seeing this situation, the police at the door realized they wouldn't get any useful information from Zhou Xiuxiu. After exchanging glances, they left.
At the Guo family house in Pei City, Guo Wei was furious. He had been blind to marry such a vixen who had scammed so many people, even entrapping his own son.
"Where's that bitch? Is she still in her room?" Guo Wei asked the housekeeper angrily.
"Sir, I'll go check."
The housekeeper said, running upstairs. She came back down in seconds, saying, "Sir, it's terrible, it's terrible."
"What's terrible? What happened? Hurry up and say it, don't dawdle." Guo Wei said impatiently.
"Madam is gone, and all the important things in the room are missing."
"What? Gone?"
At this moment, Zhou Man was driving on the road to Rong City.
The woman in the car was repeatedly dialing her phone, but no one answered.
The woman was cursing terribly, both at Shen Yin and Xu Zhengyang.
Finally, the phone call connected.
"Zhengyang, please save me, save me! The police are about to arrest me now."
"There's really nothing I can do to save you," Xu Zhengyang said teasingly. "Look at all the bad things you've done. To be honest, I'm impressed. I can't believe you managed to be with multiple men at the same time."
"Zhengyang, I did it all for you in the beginning. You can't just stand by and do nothing."
"What am I supposed to do?"
