"Officer, we have no money."

"The owner of that seafood supermarket where the theft occurred, Jiang Jingxue, is my own daughter. How about we negotiate compensation privately?"

"no!"

The police resolutely refused.

"The person who called the police is surnamed Gu, and he's a family member of the seafood supermarket owner. Since they've called the police, we have to see this through to the end!"

"Gu Pingwei, is that right? He's my son-in-law, we're all family! This is a family matter, there's no need to trouble the police to handle it."

Yao Guilan attempted to cover up the theft by claiming it was a family matter, using the name of the family.

However, the police officers were unyielding and refused to let them go, insisting that they hand over the stolen money.

"You have half an hour to think it over!"

After the police officer finished speaking, he left the room.

When it was just Yao Guilan and Jiang Zhizhi.

The mother and daughter couldn't help but hurl insults at Jiang Jingxue.

"That ungrateful wretch Jiang Jingxue! I raised her all these years!"

“I’m her own mother! Even if she gave me five hundred or five thousand, it would be my due! It’s only natural for a daughter to be filial to her mother! I only took fifty yuan from her, and she dared to call the police and have me arrested?”

"If I had known it would turn out like this, I would have just drowned her in the latrine in the first place!"

"That's right, Mom!"

"Jiang Jingxue is so outrageous! She actually called the police to arrest her own mother and sister! She's utterly inhuman!"

Jiang Zhizhi also joined in cursing Jiang Jingxue.

Yao Guilan turned her head to look at Jiang Zhizhi.

"And you, you brat! What kind of man did you find! He even dared to steal your mother-in-law's things!"

"When the police come in later, tell them that Chen Yuyan stole all the money and that the police should go after him!"

"Mom, what if the police really arrest Yuyan? Will he lose his job?"

If I weren't handcuffed...

Yao Guilan was so angry that she went to hit Jiang Zhizhi.

"What time is it? Are you still worried about whether he'll lose his job?"

"You're afraid he'll get arrested, but aren't you afraid we'll both be sentenced and thrown into jail?"

Jiang Zhizhi shrank back, not daring to say anything more.

Now, Chen Yuyan is with that woman named Bai Xiuxiu and refuses to see her at all.

She didn't know where the Bai family lived, nor could she find him.

Perhaps she can find him through the police?

Not long after, the police came in.

"So, have you thought it through? Are you going to hand over the stolen money or not?"

"Officer, all the stolen money was stolen by my heartless son-in-law, Chen Yuyan!"

Yao Guilan took the opportunity to throw dirty water on Chen Yuyan.

"It was he who instigated us to steal money from the cash register. Otherwise, how could the two of us women have had the guts?"

“Besides the stolen money, he also stole all the money and valuables we had on us. He stole everything I had!”

"That wicked bastard! He even secretly had an affair with another woman behind my daughter's back!"

"Officer, you have to help us! How unlucky we are to have such a bastard like this!"

"So, Chen Yuyan not only stole money, but may also be guilty of bigamy?"

"Yes! Yes! It's that crime!"

Yao Guilan responded repeatedly.

"That guy has climbed up the social ladder now and is hiding from us, officers. You absolutely have to find him!"

"Alright, I understand. You guys stay inside for now, we'll come find you if there's any further news."

After the police officer finished speaking, he left.

at this time.

The Gu Family Compound.

Yue Keqi came to find Jiang Jingxue to review her lessons, but unexpectedly did not see Jiang Zhizhi.

"Sister Jingxue, it's so quiet today."

"Where's Jiang Zhizhi? She's not here."

"She was taken away by the police half an hour ago."

"They were taken away by the police?" Yue Keqi asked in surprise.

In recent days, she had heard some news and learned about Jiang Zhizhi and Yao Guilan stealing money.

"Sister Jingxue, those are your own mother and sister. How can you bear to send them in there?"

"Besides, Chen Yuyan did such a terrible thing, why didn't you keep her around and let her go and cause trouble for that scumbag? Are you just going to let him off so easily?"

Jiang Jingxue spoke casually as she read her book.

“Since Chen Yuyan dared to openly break ties with Jiang Zhizhi, it means he must have Bai Xiuxiu under his control. At this point, he is not afraid of Jiang Zhizhi causing trouble for him at all.”

"That Jiang Zhizhi still harbors illusions about Chen Yuyan. Expecting her to seek justice for you? I'm afraid Chen Yuyan will just brush her off with a few words."

"Only by making Jiang Zhizhi completely lose faith in Chen Yuyan can we cure her love-struck mind. How can she learn her lesson if we don't teach her a lesson?"

Yue Keqi, who was standing to the side, was utterly astonished upon hearing this.

Why didn't she think of all that?

Sister Jingxue is so smart! Everything seems to be under her control.

Yue Keqi secretly rejoiced.

Fortunately, she reconciled with Jiang Jingxue early on.

Otherwise, how could I possibly outsmart her with my own brain?

night.

When Jiang Jingxue and Yue Keqi arrived at the night school.

They bumped into Chen Yuyan head-on.

He was holding a resignation letter in his hand.

Yue Keqi couldn't help but tease him.

"Oh, you finally got this job, and you're already quitting? Is there some hidden story behind it that got you fired?"

Chen Yuyan smiled slightly.
