Chapter 495: The Darkness Within

is voice as icily calm as winter. "Were you happy to see Shao Sinian""Huh" Fu Xiaoyao was taken aback. "Why do you say that"Lu Hánchuan pursed his thin lips and remained silent.Fu Xiaoyao couldn't gue..."In the basement of an abandoned villa on the east side of town, I searched for a long time before finding this place. What do you think Is it hidden enough" Shi Mo asked expectantly.

Fu Xiaoyao also generously gave him a thumbs up, “Not bad, very discreet.”

"Yes, I even sent two mute men to guard it. The key to the basement will be delivered later too. If you want to see Qi Dongming, go ahead." Shi Mo said.

Fu Xiaoyao gave a disdainful smirk. "I don't want to see him, at least not now. Maybe later, but brother, why did you send the mute"

"Of course, it's tormenting him, well, psychological torture!"

“Psychological torture”

"Indeed, haven't you always wanted to know the truth about your biological mother's car accident" Shi Mo replied.

Fu Xiaoyao pursed her lips, "Yes, but Qi Dongming is very stubborn and refuses to say anything."

"Indeed, I heard that even under torture he refused to speak. So for someone who fears no pain, we can only resort to other means to force a confession." Shi Mo smiled softly.

"Brother, what exactly do you want to do" Fu Xiaoyao tilted her head in confusion.

"Everyone has weaknesses, Qi Dongming is no exception. For someone like him who fears no torture, darkness and loneliness are his Achilles' heel, capable of destroying all his psychological defenses. I will lock him in a basement with no sunlight, guarded by a mute. Over time, he will inevitably crumble." Shi Mo explained in detail.

Now Fu Xiaoyao understood, her eyes shining with light, "Brother, you're amazing!"

Such a way can be thought of.

Keep Qi Dongming locked in a pitch-black basement, deprived of sunlight. He has no concept of time passing, nor can he distinguish between day and night. No one speaks to him, leaving him completely isolated from the world, with only darkness and loneliness for company.

Over time, even the strongest of hearts will eventually be broken, especially someone like Qi Dongming who is already quite old. Under such circumstances, he simply wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

I have to say, this method is really great.

"Hee hee." Shi Mo chuckled at the praise, "For my sister, of course I have to do well. Don't worry, I'll make someone interrogate Qi Dongming every week until he speaks up."

"Well, I believe you, brother. But during the interrogation, you could still get some information about Qi Ya's crimes from Qi Dongming. Qi Ya is his daughter, I don't believe he knows nothing about her actions that led to my death." Fu Xiaoyao narrowed her eyes and said.

Shi Mo pondered for a moment, "What if he really doesn't know Qi Ya didn't tell him what she did to you."

After all, at that time, Qi Dongming was still being kept in the Qi family villa by Lu Hanchuan.

Fu Xiaoyao's lips curled into a cold sneer. "That wouldn't be difficult, he doesn't know, we also have to make sure he knows."

Hearing this, Shi Mo probably guessed her thoughts and raised an eyebrow, "You mean, if Qi Dongming really didn't know about Qi Ya killing you, you would still force him to admit he knew"

"Not bad!" Fu Xiaoyao didn't hide the dark side of her heart, she said coldly: "That's exactly what I mean. Qi Ya is his daughter. Once he speaks up and says Qi Ya killed someone, then the credibility in law will be much higher."

“Indeed, society is like that. When parents say their daughter isn't a good person, the outside world will choose to believe them first and think their daughter really isn't a good person. So once Qi Dongming said Qi Ya really killed someone, Qi Ya's crime was basically settled.” Shi Mo nodded.

Fu Xiaoyao stared at Qi Dongming's old face on the video, her eyes showing no emotion. "Yes, so Qi Dongming's words are especially important. As long as he opens his mouth and says that Qi Ya really tried to kill me, legally speaking, Qi Ya will be speechless."

Then even Chongming Qi, who was beloved by Qi Ya, said that Qi Ya had killed someone. Could there be any lie

"Okay, I understand. I'll arrange for someone to interrogate her with me at the time and record it as evidence for later use against Qi Ya. I believe that with Qi Dongming's testimony, Qi Ya will be unable to turn things around." Shi Mo agreed.

Fu Xiaoyao smiled and hummed, "Thank you, brother."

"You're welcome. How has Xiao Bao been lately" Shi Mo changed the subject.

Fu Xiaoyao closed the video, too lazy to look at Qi Dongming's disgusting face any longer. She quickly recalled Xiao Bao's adorable appearance to wash away the disgust Qi Dongming had given her. She softly replied, "Xiao Bao is doing well."

"That's good, then I'll hang up first. I have a meeting coming up." Shi Mo looked at his watch and said.

"Good!" Fu Xiaoyao replied.

Just as Fu Xiaoyao hung up the phone and put it down, a knock on the door sounded again.

Fu Xiaoyao got up and interacted with her body, "Come in!"

The person outside, having received permission, gently pushed open the door. Lisa walked in, holding a small box in her hands.

"Director, here's your package!" Lisa presented the box with both hands.

Fu Xiaoyao glanced at the shipping address, it was blank, so she immediately understood who sent the package.

She took the box, "Thank you."

"Well, I'll be going then." Lisa smiled.

Fu Xiaoyao called after her, “Wait.”

"Is there anything else, Director" Lisa asked, puzzled.

Fu Xiaoyao picked up a document on the table, "This is the original data update for the second phase of new energy. It has the official seal of the headquarters. You give it to Lu Group and have their research department test it according to what's written above. Then send me the test results."

"Okay, I'll go now." Lisa took the file, held it to her chest, and turned to leave.

After she left, Fu Xiaoyao finally sat back down and reached into the pencil holder for a small handcrafted knife to start unpacking the express delivery.

The courier box was quickly opened, and there was only one thing inside, a key.

Fu Xiaoyao took out the key and looked at it, understanding that this should be the key to Qi Dongming's basement.

Thinking of Qi Dongming's current appearance, she clenched the key in her hand and let out a happy laugh.

It's wonderful, Qi Dongming is truly in her hands this time, not like six years ago when he was ostensibly hers but actually under Lu Hanchuan's control.

Lu Hanchuan repeatedly said he would help her seek revenge and get the truth about her biological mother's car accident from Qi Dongming. But what happened

He forgot it all!

So now she understood, what was best held in her own hands. Giving it to someone else might not yield the desired results.

Thinking about this, Fu Xiaoyao loosened her hand, pulled open the drawer under her desk, threw the key in, and then clicked the mouse, continuing to work.

After being busy for about an hour, Lisa returned from the Lu Corporation.

"Director, here are the test results you requested," Lisa placed a file in front of Fu Xiaoyao.

"Alright, looks good." Fu Xiaoyao picked it up and flipped through the pages. "Did the test go smoothly"

“It went very smoothly. Mr. Chen from Lu Shi said that with the updated information we provided, they can now begin trying to produce new energy vehicles. Mr. Lu also asked me to tell you that he hopes you will attend a meeting at Lu Shi Group tomorrow morning. The meeting will be about automobile production.” Lisa reported.

Fu Xiaoyao nodded, "Understood. Reply to Lu Hanchuan, saying I will attend on time tomorrow. Also, discreetly let Qi Ya know that I'm going to the Lu Corporation."

Lisa was a little confused. "What's the director trying to do"bag and hurried after Tang Yi.When I found Tang Yi, he was standing in front of the car, opening the door.Seeing this, Fu Xiaoyao's heart skipped a beat. She struggled through the crowd and walked to...
