Chapter 335 She was picked up by my grandma
“Sigh.” Zhang Ting’s husband, Xu Dafu, sighed. “Isn’t this too cruel? Ting, Dan is your own sister after all.”

Upon hearing Xu Dafu's words, Zhang Ting immediately retorted, "Zhenzhen is still my own son. How can a sister be more important than a son?"

After saying that, she suddenly remembered something and reached out to pinch Xu Dafu's ear. "Are you feeling sorry for him? I told you you have feelings for Zhang Dan!"

"Ouch! It hurts!" Xu Dafu cried out.

Zhang Ting let go of his hand and glared at him angrily, "It's a good thing he's dead, otherwise you two would have been cheating on me sooner or later!"

"Yes, I often see my aunt flirting with my dad!" Xu Zhen added fuel to the fire.

Zhang Dan couldn't believe that her good sister and good nephew would make such a fuss about her.

She was so good to them...

While anger and sadness mingled in her heart, Zhang Dan was also incredibly grateful to have met Jiang Yuan.

If it weren't for her, I would probably be dead without knowing why, and I wouldn't have seen the true face of Zhang Ting's family!

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Xu Dafu was both angry and ashamed. "Adan is your own sister, how could I possibly have feelings for her?"

Besides, even if he were interested, Zhang Dan would never agree!
"She's not my biological sister." Zhang Ting's voice carried a hint of disgust.

"If she's not your sister, is she my sister?" Xu Dafu rolled his eyes.

“I’m serious,” Zhang Ting’s tone turned serious. “Zhang Dan is really not my biological sister.”

Zhang Dan's eyelashes trembled uncontrollably as she struggled to control her emotions and remain still.

"What's going on?" Xu Dafu asked in surprise.

Xu Zhen was already searching the house for valuables when he heard this and asked, "How could that be? If she's not your own sister, why is she so good to our family?"

“She didn’t know,” Zhang Ting said. “She was picked up by my grandma. At that time, even her own children were not enough to eat, and that old woman still went out and picked up a child. Your grandparents were furious.”

"Luckily, she'll grow up and be able to make money." Zhang Ting sat down on the sofa, crossed her legs, and said with emotion, "Our family has raised her for more than ten years, so it's not a bad deal."

"Good job finding her," Xu Zhen commented. "If it weren't for my aunt, how could our family be living such a good life now?"

"Yes." A cold smile appeared on Zhang Ting's lips beneath her mask. "Good sister, you died so that we could have a better life. Your death was worthwhile!"

Xu Zhen rummaged through drawers and cabinets, and suddenly spotted a cell phone.

He was thinking of selling it secondhand, but when he picked up his phone, he found it was recording video. "Huh, what's going on?"

"What's wrong?" Zhang Ting asked, puzzled.

Xu Zhenyang waved his phone, "This phone seems to be recording video."

"A recording?" Zhang Ting frowned. "Who's recording?"

Xu Zhen stared at his phone screen, saw the recording time, and suddenly thought of something. He turned to look at Zhang Dan lying on the ground.

He said in a trembling voice, "It shows the video recording lasted for over an hour..."

"What do you mean?" Zhang Ting didn't understand.

"Auntie..." Xu Zhen stammered, "She might...not be dead..."

"What?" Zhang Ting abruptly pulled her legs back, her face filled with shock. "She's not dead?"

Xu Dafu exclaimed in surprise, "If she's not dead, how come she's lying on the ground?"

"Is he dead or not?" Zhang Ting kicked him.

Zhang Dan didn't move, lying there like a corpse. She was exhausted, both physically and mentally, and had no strength to confront this heartless family.

Seeing this, Xu Dafu muttered, "He must be dead, right?"

"Let me see your phone." Zhang Ting walked to her son's side.

When Xu Zhen handed over the phone, he accidentally pressed the red "End" button.

When Zhang Ting received the phone, all she could see was the wallpaper on the lock screen—a photo of her, her son, and Zhang Dan taken a few years ago during a trip. "What happened?" she asked.

Xu Zhen: "I accidentally clicked it."

Zhang Ting tried several passwords without success and said in frustration, "How about we come back and check again later?"

"I think it's a good idea," Xu Dafu nodded. "It's safer that way."

Xu Zhen, eager to get the money, said reluctantly, "Why don't you just call the police? They'll know whether she's dead or not as soon as they arrive."

"You're so stupid!" Zhang Ting raised her hand and slapped him on the forehead. "What if she's not completely dead yet, and the police come and take her to the hospital to save her life?"

Zhang Dan found it utterly ridiculous.

Zhang Ting is really trying to kill her!

"That's true." Xu Zhen looked enlightened. "Mom is so smart. Shall we go?"

Zhang Ting said smugly, "Of course! Let's go have some morning tea and then come back."

"And what about the phone?" Xu Zhen asked.

Zhang Ting frowned. "Everything we just said has been recorded. We definitely have to take it with us."

After Zhang Ting and her family of three left, Zhang Dan remained motionless, but tears streamed down her face, wetting her temples.

What a heartless family!

Half an hour later, Zhang Dan got up from the ground, locked the door, and the first thing she did was call the police.

Although Zhang Ting took the spare recording device with her, her phone contained recordings that were enough to prove the murder motive of Zhang Ting's family.

After Zhang Dan called the police, she suddenly thought of Jiang Yuan.

She found Deng Rui's phone number and dialed it.

The phone rang a few times before Deng Rui's voice came through, "Manager Zhang, why are you calling so early?"

“Ms. Deng,” Zhang Dan said, her throat dry and her voice choked with emotion, “I wanted to thank your daughter.”

"She's still resting." Deng Rui noticed the unusual tone in the other person's voice and asked with concern, "Manager Zhang, are you alright?"

“I…” Zhang Dan didn’t know how to answer.

Deng Rui sighed, "Relax, stay far away from these ungrateful wretches in the future."

"Yes," Zhang Dan said. "I've already called the police, and I won't let this go."

“It’s good to call the police!” Deng Rui smiled. “I was worried that you would be too attached to family ties and wouldn’t call the police.”

Zhang Dan said with a wry smile, "Originally, I couldn't bring myself to do it, but they really went too far!"

"Don't show any mercy," Deng Rui instructed. "They must receive the punishment they deserve!"

"I will." After Zhang Dan hung up the phone, the doorbell rang.

She saw the uniformed police officers outside the door through the peephole, opened the door and said, "Hello, comrades."

After exchanging greetings, Zhang Dan played the recording aloud on her phone and also provided the receipt for yesterday's gas pipeline repair.

The two police officers looked serious and said they would definitely investigate the matter thoroughly.

Zhang Dan was extremely grateful.

It was 2 p.m. when Zhang Ting and her family arrived at Zhang Dan's residence again.

As soon as they entered the house, they put on masks, and the police hidden in the shadows saw the whole scene.

Seeing Zhang Dan still lying in the same spot, Zhang Ting breathed a sigh of relief, a satisfied smile spreading across her face: "It's done! She's completely dead!"
