Cao Tongwen glanced at Wen Jun sideways and thought he was simply insane.

"It's such a trivial matter, why are you making such a fuss? Do you still want to work with the Qiu family?"

"A girl as good as Shanshan is hard to find even with a lantern, we absolutely can't miss her! It's just that Cheng Wan drank a bowl of ginseng soup, it's no big deal, we have to accept it no matter what."

Cao Tongwen, with the air of someone who's been there, patted Wen Jun on the shoulder with a smug look on her face.

"Your future father-in-law's family is so well-off. As long as we can win them over, are we afraid that we won't get any benefits in the future?"

"You don't need to worry about work at all. What can you do with the meager salary you earn now? After you and Shanshan get married, have your wife ask her family to introduce you to someone even better."

Wen Jun realized he could profit from the situation, so he shut his mouth and stopped talking.

He just didn't know why, but he always felt uneasy, as if something bad was going to happen.

Sure enough, the police arrived shortly afterward.

"You are Wen Jun and Cao Tongwen, right? Someone has reported that you two committed domestic violence and attempted to harm others. Please cooperate with our investigation truthfully."

"Why are you being so literary? I can't understand it at all."

Cao Tongwen waved her hand dismissively.

"What do you mean by 'other people'? You've come to me about my daughter-in-law, Cheng Wan, right? She was indeed hospitalized yesterday, but that has nothing to do with me or my son."

"Cheng Wan's miscarriage was entirely due to her own weakness and poor health."

"Her family is also very vicious. Ever since Cheng Wan became pregnant, I have been taking care of her with all my heart and soul. Not only are they ungrateful, but they also slandered me, saying that I wanted to harm her?"

Throughout the questioning, Cao Tongwen appeared extremely confident and answered fluently.

If it were someone else, knowing that their unintentional act almost caused the death of two lives, they would definitely feel some fear and guilt.

Cao Tongwen, on the other hand, remained calm and composed, showing no signs of the recent incident involving her daughter-in-law and grandson.

The person in charge of liaising with her was Guo Bin's partner, Yi Chunlan.

With her extensive experience, she immediately saw through Cao Tongwen's hypocrisy and shamelessness, and was so disgusted that she felt physically uncomfortable.

No wonder this family has a bad reputation in this tenement; they're so cold-blooded!

After asking all the questions and recording them, Guo Bin and Yi Chunlan realized they hadn't gathered any more useful clues, so they decided to leave.

"You should not leave the capital during this period. If there are any new developments in the investigation, we will need your cooperation at any time."

Cao Tongwen smiled broadly, but inwardly she breathed a huge sigh of relief.

It was impossible to get her to cooperate; she just hoped these plague-mongers would never come again.

As soon as the police left, Cao Tongwen couldn't wait to close the courtyard gate, but unexpectedly saw them heading towards the courtyard house!

The Xie family lives over there, so these police officers will definitely go and question Shen Zhihuan and Xie Lanshen.

Cao Tongwen panicked and muttered a curse under her breath.

"Why ask that wretched girl Chen Zhihuan of all people?! She loves to meddle in other people's business, so we have to be careful and not let her spout nonsense in front of the police."

After telling Wen Jun to stay and watch the house, she hurriedly ran towards the police officers, wanting to follow them to the Xie family's house.

Before they could even leave the courtyard, they saw Shen Zhihuan's figure appear at the intersection.

"You gentlemen are here to investigate the Wen family and Miss Cheng, right? You've worked hard."

Shen Zhihuan ignored Cao Tongwen, smiled at the police officers, and took the initiative to explain the situation.

“I participated in the entire rescue of Ms. Cheng last night and know some of the inside story. I was afraid that I might have missed something, so I thought I would come and tell you all.”

Guo Bin and Yi Chunlan exchanged a glance and instantly guessed that the girl in front of them must be Xie Lanshen's fiancée.

After Cheng Wan's incident, they both had a very good impression of Shen Zhihuan, thinking she was a warm-hearted and kind girl, and they valued her advice very much.

"Miss Chen, do you mean you know why Miss Cheng had the accident?"

Shen Zhihuan nodded and said calmly:

"The reason why Ms. Cheng suffered a hemorrhage and miscarriage this time was entirely because of the ginseng soup that Cao Tongwen gave her. If you need evidence, the hospital's test results can serve as proof."

“Ginseng is a tonic, but it is also a medicinal herb. Cao Tongwen gave it to a pregnant woman without consulting a doctor. Combined with her previous behavior of often tormenting Miss Cheng, it is enough to suspect that she was trying to harm someone with malicious intent.”

These words were reasonable and well-founded. Guo Bin and Yi Chunlan nodded frequently as they listened, noting down Shen Zhihuan's points. They then invited her to continue:

“Miss Shen is right. You are knowledgeable in medicine and must have done a lot of research in this area.”

"If it's convenient for you, please come with us to the Wen family's house to see if we can find more evidence."

Shen Zhihuan readily agreed.

"Yes, ginseng is a very precious medicinal herb, so we will definitely take extra care in preserving it."

"Although the Wen family has finished eating the ginseng, the box must still be there, so we can find it and collect evidence."

Cao Tongwen was furious when she heard what they said.

She just made so many excuses, how could she have forgotten about the ginseng?

Seeing that several police officers and Shen Zhihuan were about to walk towards her house again, she hurriedly stepped forward and began to argue.

"Officers, don't listen to her nonsense. What do you mean by medicinal herbs? We ordinary people don't know anything about this."

"I only made this soup for Cheng Wan because I thought ginseng was a good thing; I had no intention of harming her at all!"

"Whether it was intentional or not is not for you to decide. We'll know once the evidence is gathered."

Guo Bin and Yi Chunlan had little affection for people who plotted to harm their daughter-in-law and grandson.

After telling Cao Tongwen to step aside and not obstruct their official duties, they went into the Wen family home with Shen Zhihuan.

Watching them take away the empty box containing the ginseng, Cao Tongwen angrily pointed at Shen Zhihuan and cursed loudly.

"You little slut, who gave you permission to meddle in other people's affairs? And you dare to slander my reputation? Be careful you don't get your comeuppance!"

Shen Zhihuan glanced over coolly and immediately started to criticize.

"If a murderer like you isn't afraid of retribution, why should I be afraid?"

"Instead of polluting the environment with your foul mouth, you should go back and worry about yourself. Don't be so scared at night that you wet your pants thinking about the child you killed."
