Chapter 621: A Good Opportunity to Make a Fortune
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Upon hearing the news, Li Er felt a pang of unease in his heart, but given the circumstances, he had no choice but to give it a shot.
Li Er was a city dweller, but his family was as ordinary as they came. He didn’t have a stable job and often found himself working odd jobs at various construction sites, earning a daily wage. His income was anything but consistent.
Ironically, his greatest pleasure in life was gambling. If he went three days without gambling, he would feel uneasy. Recently, he had been strapped for cash. When this golden opportunity to make quick money presented itself, he couldn’t afford to be timid. This was a chance to strike it rich!
Without hesitation, Li Er made his decision. He was determined to get his hands on the money.
He once again tried to convince the other three, “Mom, Dad, big brother, stop overthinking. We’ve come this far, we must demand compensation. Otherwise, how are we going to fulfill the promises we made to our relatives? We must stick to our story and demand compensation, understand?”
The other three thought it over. They didn’t have any other options at this point, and they too wanted the money. They could receive a hefty compensation. After all, Li Da had indeed been poisoned by the food from the restaurant. They were in the right, so what was there to fear? They had to get their hands on the money!
The next morning, Su Shen took Gu Zi to the police station before driving off to the chemistry institute to collect the lab report. This was the most compelling piece of evidence. After Gu Zi arrived at the police station, she and Captain He took a police car to the hospital.
When they arrived at Li Da’s hospital room, it was bustling with activity. The room was filled with people, sobbing and wailing. The source of the noise was Li Da’s mother and their relatives, who seemed to be putting on quite a show. The intended audience was clearly the two police officers and Gu Zi, the restaurant manager who had just arrived.
Li Da, propped up by Li Er, sat up. His eyes were somewhat vacant and fearful, but the firm pat on his back from Li Er signaled him to stick to the plan. Li Da had always listened to his younger brother, believing that he would never lead him astray.
After a moment of hesitation, Li Da nodded at Captain He and listened as the beautiful restaurant manager began to speak, “Mr. Li Da, I’ll ask you again, did you come to our restaurant specifically for breakfast?”
A sense of triumph filled Li Da’s heart. His brother had prepared him for this question the night before. His brother was truly remarkable, knowing exactly what this woman would ask.
Without hesitation, he nodded, “Yes, I came specifically for your hot and spicy soup. A friend from my factory told me that he had tried your braised pork and heard that your breakfast was also quite special. I was intrigued and wanted to try it.”
