Hong Kong Film: Night Cop

Chapter 563 Lin Shao Cong, the Ultimate Scumbag

"Dad, it's getting late, I have to go now. Fei is probably already waiting downstairs," Liang Xiaorou said, glancing at her watch.

“Okay, I’m at ease knowing you’re going with him. It’s fine if you don’t come back tonight,” Liang Xinglong said.

Liang Xiaorou was speechless. What did her father mean? Did he want her and Li Fei to go to a hotel?

Liang Xiaorou went downstairs and happened to see Li Fei standing next to a sports car waving at her.

"You must have been waiting impatiently!" Liang Xiaorou walked over and brushed a strand of hair behind her ear.

“No, I just arrived. Xiaorou, you look absolutely stunning tonight. If you went to the wedding, you would outshine the bride,” Li Fei said, his eyes lighting up.

"You have such a sweet tongue, are you up to something?" Liang Xiaorou glared at Li Fei and said.

Li Fei smiled slightly, did not answer, but opened the passenger door and bowed gentlemanly, saying, "Princess, please get in the car."

Liang Xiaorou placed her hand on Li Fei's hand, pulled her skirt up a bit, got into the car, and teased Li Fei, "Little Fei, aren't you getting ready?"

"The slave obeys the order."

Li Fei readily agreed.

They then got into the car and drove towards their destination.

The wedding was held at the Victoria Hotel, the very hotel that Li Fei and Liang Xiaorou frequented.

When Li Fei and Liang Xiaorou arrived at the wedding venue, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.

A handsome man and a beautiful woman—this couple looks even better than the bride and groom.

Those who knew Liang Xiaorou were all envious.

My old classmate actually found a handsome guy as her boyfriend.

Liang Xiaorou greeted several old classmates, then offered a few words of blessing to the bride and groom, and led Li Fei to a seat.

"Are you Liang Xiaorou?"

As the bride and groom recounted how they met on stage, a tall, burly man who looked to be around thirty years old spoke to Liang Xiaorou.

Liang Xiaorou looked at the man with a puzzled expression, as if he were both a stranger and a familiar face.

"Don't you recognize him? Lin Shao-chung from Pui Chung High School in Hong Kong, Kobe Bryant." The man said, his hands clasped across his chest.

"Class monitor?" Liang Xiaorou asked in surprise.

"Haha, you still remember!" Lin Shao Cong laughed loudly.

"You're here for the wedding too?" Liang Xiaorou asked.

“Yes! They’re all old classmates. They invited us, so it would be a bit disrespectful not to come,” Lin Shao Cong said.

"By the way, is this your boyfriend?" Lin Shao Cong asked Li Fei.

“Yes, this is my boyfriend, Li Fei. Fei is my class monitor from middle school, Lin Shao Cong,” Liang Xiaorou introduced.

"Hello, Lin Shao Cong," Lin Shao Cong said, extending his hand.

Li Fei shook hands with the other person briefly and said, "Li Fei, Xiao Rou's boyfriend."

"How did you find such a great boyfriend, Liang Xiaorou?" Lin Shao Cong asked.

"Excuse me, Mr. Lin, it is Xiao Rou who I have been pursuing. Being able to receive Xiao Rou's affection is the happiest thing in my life," Li Fei said.

"A perfect match! Liang Xiaorou and I haven't seen each other for many years. I wonder where you two are working?"

"The two of us serve the citizens."

As Liang Xiaorou spoke, she took out a business card and handed it to the other party.

Lin Shao Cong took it and glanced at it, then exclaimed in surprise, "Eh, Inspector? My apologies, Madam!"

"Li Fei, are you an inspector too?"

“A senior inspector, working in the same group as Xiaorou,” Li Fei said casually.

Li Fei felt a strong dislike for the man in front of him.

Because he had already recognized who the man in front of him was. This guy was a complete scumbag, a total beast.

In the drama, Lin Shaocong is a fund manager who spends all his time giving lectures on investment, constantly claiming that his few minutes of lectures are worth tens of millions, acting like a successful person.

Lin Shao Cong appears to be impeccably dressed, but in reality, he is an extremely scummy man.

In the drama, his wife Jiang Yunqin is gentle and considerate, a good woman who manages the household well.

She also bore him a son.

If things continue like this, Lin Shaocong can be considered a winner in life.

But the birth of their son, JJ Lin, did not bring happiness to the family; instead, it became the reason for Lin Shaocong's betrayal of his family.

Because JJ Lin was born with a cleft lip and palate.

Lin Shaocong despised his son's disability and blamed Jiang Yunqin, beating and scolding her for giving birth to such a defective child.

Is it my wife's problem if our son has a disability?

Genetically speaking, the two may be related.

However, judging from how Li Fei sees Lin Shao Cong now, it's clear that his son inherited his flaws.

This guy's lips seem to be a little bigger than normal.

No wonder his son inherited a cleft lip and palate.

In the TV series, what this guy did was absolutely heinous.

He blamed all the mistakes on his wife.

This caused his wife, Jiang Yunqin, to develop mental health issues due to immense psychological pressure.

She was diagnosed with severe depression.

Lin Shao Cong not only failed to care for his sick wife and disabled child, but also filed for divorce from his wife.

Jiang Yunqin disagreed with the divorce, so Lin Shaocong threatened her that if she refused to divorce him, he would not acknowledge Lin Junjie as his son.

Jiang Yunqin didn't want her son to be without a father, and she wavered.

So, under Lin Shaocong's combination of coaxing, deception, and threats, Jiang Yunqin signed the divorce agreement.

It's normal for men and women to divorce, but what Lin Shaocong did before the divorce was really despicable, or rather, he had been plotting against his wife and son all along.

Before the divorce, he bought a high-value insurance policy for Jiang Yunqin and her son, with himself as the beneficiary.

Because you can't buy such a large insurance coverage after a divorce, you have to buy it before the divorce.

The policy states that if Jiang Yunqin and her son die by suicide, Lin Shaocong will receive a huge sum of compensation, but this will only happen 18 months after the policy takes effect.

Did Lin Shaocong foresee that his wife would die in eighteen months?

Otherwise, who would buy an insurance policy for their wife like that?
Although he cannot tell fortunes or predict the future, he can create the future he desires.

That's right, this scumbag wants his wife to die so he can get a huge insurance payout.

In the drama, he never saw his son during the eighteen months after he and his wife left.

But once the eighteen months were up, he frequently visited Jiang Yunqin and her son at their home.

Jiang Yunqin was foolish; she thought Lin Shao Cong had changed his mind.

However, Lin Shao Cong's return was not out of concern for the mother and son.

He found fault with everything, criticizing and finding fault with Jiang Yunqin.

Jiang Yunqin already suffered from severe depression and was unable to live like a normal person. Her thoughts were also very negative and extreme. Under Lin Shaocong's verbal abuse, her thoughts became even more chaotic.

Lin Shaocong told Jiang Yunqin to die more than once.

Although Jiang Yunqin was in a negative mood, as a mother, she couldn't bear to abandon her young son.

Li Fei still remembers that in the drama, Lin Shao Cong actually instigated Jiang Yunqin to take Xiao Jie with her to die: "Since you can't let go of your son, take him with you to die."
