A voice suddenly rang out, nearly scaring Gu Wanwan, who was completely focused on the situation in the ward, half to death.

When he turned around again, he saw that the leader was Jiang Tiancai and others wearing police uniforms, and he was stunned.

Seeing Gu Wanwan's dazed expression, Jiang Tiancai patiently repeated, "Excuse me, is Comrade Gu Tianyou's ward here?"

Gu Wanwan could only nod subconsciously: "Yes... What do you want with my dad?"

“We’re not here to see your father, we’re here for someone else.”

Seeing that they had found the right destination, Jiang Tian gave a wink to the police officers behind him, his voice suddenly becoming stern: "Go in and arrest Gu Tao."

"yes!"

Two police officers stepped forward and pushed open the ward door with a bang.

Gu Wanwan was so frightened that she covered her mouth.

How did we manage to provoke the police?

Could it be that my older brother really did something terribly immoral?

In the ward, Gu Tao was feeding Gu Tianyou water from a glass.

Hearing the door being kicked open, he was about to yell "Who's blind?" when he looked up and saw uniformed police officers rushing in. His fawning expression instantly froze.

The next second, I was so scared that my legs went weak and I collapsed to the ground, getting water all over myself.

"What...what are you doing?!"

Jiang Tiancai walked in, the handcuffs on his hands gleaming coldly under the light: "Gu Tao, you are suspected of conspiring with Old Li to engage in feudal superstitious activities and poisoning the children of Comrade Chu Yan and Comrade Ye Nian'an."

"This involves serious violations of laws and regulations. Come with us!"

Gu Tianyou's heart skipped a beat, and cold sweat instantly broke out on his back.

How could it be so fast? Only two days have passed!

Could it be that Old Li confessed?

No matter what, we can't let Gu Tao be arrested so easily, otherwise where will the Gu family put their face!

Thinking of this, Gu Tianyou suddenly sat up, pointed at Jiang Tiancai, and angrily said, "What right do you have to arrest people?! Where is the arrest warrant?"

"Right here."

Since Jiang Tiancai has shown up, he must have come prepared.

The arrest warrant, stamped with a red seal, was clearly affixed to Gu Tianyou's front.

This time, Gu Tianyou was completely speechless.

Jiang Tiancai gave him a cold glance: "Mr. Gu, you should focus on recovering and not get involved in these matters. That's the best choice for you and the Gu family!"

Two police officers stepped forward and handcuffed Gu Tao's wrists with a click.

He struggled frantically, crying out, "Dad! Save me! Dad—! I've been framed! Someone's framed me!"

Gu Tianyou was so angry that he trembled all over. He pointed to the door, wanting to say something, but he couldn't catch his breath, and everything went black before his eyes, and he fainted again.

"dad!"

Gu Wanwan screamed and rushed into the ward, supporting the swaying Gu Tianyou. Looking at his pale face and her older brother being taken away, her mind went blank.

Jiang Tiancai glanced at the chaotic ward and coldly ordered, "Call the doctor over!"

In short, we can't let anyone die.

"yes!"

The cries and screams faded into the distance in the corridor, startling people in other wards who peeked out to watch the spectacle and pointed at Gu Tao as he was being taken away.

"That's strange. Why would the police come to the hospital to arrest someone? Have they been infiltrated by spies?"

"Wait a minute, isn't this the direction of Old Master Gu's hospital room?"

"Who in the Gu family committed this crime?"

"This is going to be interesting."

In this era of limited entertainment options, watching the excitement, gossiping, and sharing stories are enduring forms of entertainment.

It's rare to see such a lively scene in Haicheng, and the news spread throughout the city in no time.

Gu Wanwan, supporting herself on the hospital bed, felt the world spinning around her—

Is the Gu family about to undergo a major upheaval?

No... I have to tell my second brother and mother about this right away!

This long-term meal ticket must not be compromised in the slightest!

She hurriedly wiped away her tears and immediately went to find someone to inform the Gu family...

For some, this night was destined to be a sleepless one.

The next day.

The sun rises.

As usual, Ye Nian'an took a bath in the spiritual spring water in her spatial dimension. When she came out, her face was rosy, and she was carrying the breakfast that the space had automatically prepared.

The millet porridge, served with a few delicate side dishes, had a wonderfully fragrant aroma.

"sister in law!"

Chu Xin'er rushed in like a gust of wind, excitedly exclaiming, "Have you heard? Last night, Captain Jiang led his men to arrest Gu Tao!"

Ye Nian'an was setting the table when she heard this and raised an eyebrow: "Oh? You're quick."

Although she hadn't heard about it, she had already made all the necessary arrangements, just waiting for Liu Tingting to find an opportunity to expose herself.

That woman was a smart woman; she knew how to protect herself while also giving Ye Nian'an an explanation.

Working with a practical woman like this is actually less stressful and less likely to make mistakes than dealing with a fool.

A fool will always be an incurable fool.

Last night, Ye Nian'an also told Chu Xin'er and the others about her trip to Gu Tao's house in detail.

No wonder Chu Xin'er ran out early in the morning to inquire about all sorts of news.

"I really didn't expect Liu Tingting to do this so quickly. It can be said that she can admit her mistakes and correct them, which is a great virtue."

Chu Xin'er sighed: "But speaking of which, she's quite pitiful..."

Upon learning of Liu Tingting's ordeal, Chu Xin'er felt a mix of emotions.

Since she has taken the initiative to make amends, let's consider this a transaction and call it even.

"But can she really manage on her own, raising three daughters, especially with such a serious illness?"

"What if the Gu family finds out that she testified against Gu Tao? Won't she suffer a terrible fate?"

Ye Nian'an ladled out the porridge and said calmly, "Since we've chosen this path, we have to make some sacrifices."

"Song Yan has already spoken to Captain Jiang, and the matter of Liu Tingting's testimony will be completely covered up. Song Yan will also help. What we really need is Old Li's testimony and evidence."

"After all, he is the culprit. The evidence and truth that he reveals are our ultimate goal! Liu Tingting's evidence collection is just a means to force Old Li to give up his resistance!"

Actually, Old Li was already on the verge of collapse when Jiang Tiancai and the others were interrogating him.

Li Dahong underwent various interrogations the night he was arrested, and he had already revealed everything he knew.

Old Li was only asking those wealthy patrons to bribe him so that he could secure his livelihood after his release from prison.

Unexpectedly, Gu Tao's wife, Liu Tingting, suddenly betrayed him and confessed everything she knew.

Of course, Jiang Tiancai took absolute measures to protect Liu Tingting's privacy.

Even Old Li himself didn't know.

As Gu Tao's wife, Liu Tingting roughly knew who Gu Tao would contact to handle this matter.

After all, they've been married for many years, and he knows exactly what kind of friends he can and can't use.

Liu Tingting named several suspects among those who worked for Gu Tao, and Jiang Tiancai immediately led his men to wipe them all out.
