Chapter 15 No Case Allowed for Investigation

"ah--"

Before Hu Li'er could explain, Shan Jianshe knocked her to the ground.

She looked at Shan Jianshe's fierce appearance, which resembled a vengeful ghost with bloodshot eyes, and panicked.

"Shan Jianshe, you only hit me once, why did you hit me too? What did I do to offend you? Zhiwei and I are completely innocent!"

"Who asked about your shameful deeds, you slut? You'd better confess yourself where you transferred all the family assets while I was away!"

Dan Jianshe, speaking through gritted teeth, questioned Hu Lier in a low voice, "If you don't talk, believe me, I'll kill you!"

Before Hu Lier could ask what was going on, Cen Yan exclaimed in surprise.

"What? The family assets have been transferred? Dad, what do you mean? I don't understand!"

Cen Yan's shout immediately drew everyone's attention, and they all stared at her with wide eyes.

They were afraid that if they blinked even slightly, they would miss some juicy gossip.

"You misheard me..." Shan Jianshe quickly covered up.

Cen Yan didn't give him a chance, and ran into the house with a scream.

"Ah!! How could this happen!!"

"Yan'er, are you alright? Auntie is here to help you!" Aunt Wu couldn't wait any longer and rushed in with her neighbors.

Cen Yan sat on the ground, her face filled with disbelief. "Everything in my house is gone. Everything was fine yesterday. Why did I wake up drunk to find my fiancé and stepmother in bed, and the house completely empty? Who did this...?"

Aunt Wu led her neighbors in a thorough search of the Cen family's home.

"I was so busy catching her cheating that I realized now that Yan's house is even cleaner than my own. It wasn't like this when I came to borrow soy sauce a few days ago. How come all the tables, chairs, furniture, and decorations have disappeared overnight?"

"Yan's family's TV, radio, and big refrigerator were all new and good products from the supply and marketing cooperative. Especially that refrigerator, there were only three in Shanghai. Now it has been moved away, and the kitchen is bare."

As if she had just remembered something, Aunt Wu quickly tugged at Cen Yan.

"Girl, go back to your room and check if anything is missing. Your watch, necklace, earrings, and even that lace parasol are all worth a lot! If you lose them, I'll feel the pain for you."

Upon hearing this, Cen Yan was enlightened and quickly ran upstairs. Less than two minutes later, she came downstairs screaming as if her father had died.

"Gone! All gone! My room has been emptied, not even the sheets are left! Not to mention the donations I was supposed to give to various organizations! Dad, leaders, and the captain of the enforcement team, this matter must be thoroughly investigated! We must find out where all of our Cen family's belongings went, and we absolutely must bring this thief to justice!"

Cen Yan cried bitterly, and the three leaders from the Academy of Sciences, the Construction Bureau, and the Railway Bureau turned green after hearing her words.

I never expected that someone would be so audacious as to rob the Cen family and empty their little villa.

"Don't worry, Yan'er, Captain Chen from the enforcement team is here too. He will definitely investigate the theft from the Cen family and recover their assets!" The old dean of the Academy of Sciences held Cen Yan's hand, feeling extremely sympathetic.

But at that very moment! Shan Jianshe shouted, "No investigation is allowed!"

"Why not, Dad? Do you know who emptied our house?"

Cen Yan looked around with teary eyes, then coldly questioned, "Could it be that someone you know committed the crime, which is why you're not calling the police, Dad, to protect them? No wonder you're in such a hurry to send me back to the countryside with Hu Zhiwei..."
