Chapter 1081: This Was Their Ploy

“He wanted Ye Hao to groom Ye Chenyu as his successor, then he will stand to inherit the Ye family fortune. This was Ye Yi’s motive. Ye Yi was worried that Ye Hao would divorce Han Xue when you reappeared in their lives and this will affect Ye Chenyu’s chances of inheriting the Ye family fortune. Thus, Ye Yi and Han Xue became desperate and resorted to the extreme means of trying to infect you with HIV so that Ye Hao would shun you.”

He Xiyan’s eyes widened and her jaw fell open. She wasn’t able to say a single word in response.

She couldn’t believe how evil some people could be.

She finally realized why Xia Jingshu was suddenly showering so much attention on her daughter Xi Xi and why Ye Hao had brought the test paper to the castle and insisted on her doing the blood test.

Everything turned out to be a convoluted conspiracy that was extremely ruthless.

“Wang Lan was killed by Ye Yi’s henchman as well. Han Xue tried to bribe Wang Lan to put poison in your food in August 2021 and harm your unborn child. Wang Lan did not actually harm you but she managed to cheat Han Xue out of a sum of money. Later, Wang Lan found out the true identity of Ye Chenyu. Ye Yi and Han Xue were worried that she would spill the beans and thus, they murdered her.”

Cold sweat beaded on He Xiyan’s forehead and gooseflesh rose on her arms.

They had resorted to murder in order to hide their dirty tricks and conspiracies.

“Ye Yi and Han Xue should be put to death,” He Xiyan suddenly clenched her jaw and her eyes blazed with anger.

Inspector Liu gave He Xiyan a cup of water and said, “Ms. He, we’ve already uncovered their plot and obtained enough evidence. Ye Yi is suspected of hiring others to cause a malicious injury to yourself, so you may sue Ye Yi and Han Xue and force them to apologize, and also request for compensation from them.”

He Xiyan’s anger was clearly reflected on her face as she said, “I don’t need any compensation from them. I want them to be punished severely for their crimes. They should rot in jail for a few more years.”

She hoped that they would be sentenced to death. They had committed a crime that was worse than death.

“Don’t worry, the courts will deliver a just judgment,” Inspector Liu said. “By the way, Han Xue has been kicking up a fuss in jail and has been demanding to see you. Are you willing to see her?” Inspector Liu asked.

They would usually not agree to deliver a suspect’s request but it was possible that she was still withholding some details or secrets from the police. If the suspect and the victim were to meet, they might be able to uncover more about the crime and even obtain more evidence.

He Xiyan frowned and she was still extremely livid.

She didn’t use to hate Han Xue and only disliked her because she used to bully her daughter. However, this woman was so evil that she killed a housemaid and even attempted to infect her with an infectious disease.

“I will meet her,” she said angrily. She wanted to hear for herself how that woman could commit such evil crimes.

“Very well, I’ll get my men to make the necessary arrangements. Oh yes, don’t go too near to the metal rails. We don’t want her to hurt you if she gets agitated,” Inspector Liu said as he patted her shoulder.

30 minutes later.

Han Xue was led into the room. She was wearing the blue prisoner’s jumpsuit and her number was 2056.

“Han Xue, you have a visitor. Drink this glass of water first,” the prison guard said coldly. His voice was so cold that it seemed to originate from the depths of hell.

Han Xue shivered.

“Who is it?” she asked. If the visitor was someone she didn’t want to meet, she did not plan on heading out at all.
