Chapter 51 - 51 Money Trap
Moon was dumbstruck after finding out her husband would be in prison for eight years at the end of the year.
She felt lucky that she did not have a heart problem.
Otherwise…
She would have probably been hospitalized because of a heart attack.
Was Chen Yu predicting the future, or was he testing the endurance of others’ hearts?
“As expected of Dr. Chen. The content of his livestream is always so exciting.”
“The twists and turns are thrilling.”
“I smashed ten bookstores in a row but still couldn’t find a story similar to this.”
“Dr. Chen, 1 give you full marks for this.”
“I thought it was already complicated enough that things had reached divorce. I’m still too young.”
“What did he do to deserve eight years in prison?”
“It must be a serious crime.”
Netizens who had been watching other people’s livestreams vowed they would never watch another person’s livestream again.
They were certain to stay on the livestream to watch until Chen Yu finished streaming.
Enjoying these scandals was more interesting than watching female streamers dance and sing.
“Dr. Chen, what crime did my husband commit that he has to stay in prison for eight years?”
Moon’s tone was filled with worry and bitterness.
She has complete faith in Chen Yu’s words after hearing all of his detailed explanations.
She was eager to know why her husband broke the law and why he was sentenced to such a heavy sentence.
“We have to start after you didn’t call to save him,” Chen Yu said.
“After being beaten up for two days, your husband thinks he’s a tough guy.”
“At night, a female higher-up of the drug company personally interrogated your husband.”
“A few hours later, your husband admitted to his identity as a reporter.”
“Then, he willingly joined the phony drug group.”
“Relying on some of the abilities that he had developed from working in the newspaper agency for many years, your husband soon gained the trust of the female higher-up.”
“In a few months, the profits of the drug group rose sharply, and their network expanded to the countryside.”
“At the end of the year, the mother of a member died from eating their medicine, causing this person to gain a conscience.”
“He ran to the police and turned himself in, leading the police to destroy this drug group.”
“It was a major case. The relevant departments dealt with it strictly and took half a month to complete drafting out the lawsuit and sentence.”
“Although your husband has only joined briefly, he has done many important things for them. He deserves his sentence of eight years in prison.”
Chen Yu leisurely finished recounting the process of how her husband would be sentenced.
He then looked at the comments in his chat.
“Fuck, even the BBC can’t make up a story like this.”
“Previous commenter, what are you talking about? Do you think this is a story? It’s clearly true.”
“Did her husband get kicked in the head by a donkey?”
“A beauty must have seduced him.”
“That makes sense. Many good men can survive a beating but will finally fall under a woman’s skirt.”
“How many bad things did this woman’s husband do to make the court sentence him this severely?”
“It’s better to divorce a husband who can’t stand the test of beauty.”
“I support her divorce. Women should be self-reliant.”
The female netizens had just changed their impression of Moon’s husband.
After Chen Yu tossed out a new piece of news, they united against a common enemy once again.
If he couldn’t survive the torture, it wasn’t shameful to reveal his identity.
After all, not many people can endure pain.
However…
Moon’s husband not only revealed his identity; he even took the initiative to join them after encountering the female higher-up.
What ridiculousness.
If that woman did not seduce him, he must have other thoughts.
Furthermore, it must be someone terrible.
Otherwise, why would he be sentenced to eight years in prison?
“How… how did he become like this…” Moon sobbed.
“The most complicated thing in the world is a person’s character.”
“Your husband can survive torture but can’t survive the temptation of money.”
Chen Yu’s answer was far from the netizens’ guesses.
There was no honey trap.
But a trap worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
“The female higher-up checked your husband’s background and had obtained all of his background files from his university until now.”
“It doesn’t matter whether your husband admits his identity now.”
Chen Yu’s deep voice explained to Moon the female higher-up’s ruthlessness.
The other leaders knew that a spy was inside and were determined to get rid of him.
However, she acted the opposite.
Not only did she ask those thugs to untie Moon’s husband, but she also asked them to prepare some medicine and food for him.
She then brought in boxes upon boxes of money.
“He has never seen so much money in his life.”
“After learning that the phony drug group earns hundreds of millions a year, your husband’s worldview quickly collapsed.”
“She admires your husband’s courage to endure torture and his intelligence. So, she invited him to join their group and make a fortune together.”
“After a few hours of consideration, your husband jumped ship into the wolf’s den.”
“Your husband only used a few months to expand the group’s sales network from the city to the countryside.”
“In just a few months, your husband will have earned nearly 100 million for the group.”
“Do you think eight years in prison is too much?”
After Chen Yu finished speaking, he looked at Moon with a profound expression.
Moon shook her head with a complicated expression.
“Dear patient, I have already told you the effects of your two choices.”
“Now it’s your turn to make a choice.”
Hearing this, Moon fell silent for a long time.
“Dr. Chen, I want to ask one more thing. What will happen to us after my husband comes out eight years later?” Moon asked.
“Sister, are you still thinking about that man at this time?”
“If you don’t cut it off now, you’ll be the one in trouble.”
“You can’t say that. After all, one day as husband and wife, always husband and wife.”
“Reality is always more ridiculous than movies.”
The netizens sighed at the unpredictable nature of the human heart.
At the same time, they tried persuading Moon to throw away her fantasies.
He went undercover with the goal of exposing the phony medicine group.
Surprisingly, the journalist who was supposed to represent justice instead fell for money.
This meant that he was a person extremely desperate for money.
Regardless of whether the money was dirty or not, it could make him sink into it.
Such a man would even sell his wife one way if they continued living together.
“Because of his good performance in prison, he was released in about seven years.”
“After he came out, he knelt before you and cried bitterly. You chose to forgive him and continue living your life.”
“After going through this prison, he has become more appreciative of you than ever before.”
“Although the days ahead will be dull, the two of you will be together for the rest of your lives.”
The two future outcomes that Chen Yu proposed had various pros and cons.
Thus, Moon fell silent again.
She was silent, but the netizens were having a field day at the chat.
“Sister, you have to think twice.”
“Why don’t we choose the second outcome?”
“It’s better to tear down ten temples than one marriage.”
“As long as he knows he’s in the wrong, he can be forgiven.”
“Have all of you forgotten your worldviews? This isn’t a matter of forgiveness! This is a major event that would affect her life.”
“Yo, a white knight is here..”
