Chapter 174 174 A Complete Sweep
Wang Biao pondered the unfinished words of his younger brother. With the army coming from outside, this matter was unlikely to end well.
If the arrested brothers can't hold their ground, they might very well implicate him...
After a moment's thought, Wang Biao made a decision: "Pack your things and let's go."
He has always been pragmatic, and at this moment he decisively chose to avoid the limelight.
As for Su Peipei, he felt there shouldn't be any major problems, since the workshop had all the necessary permits and there was nothing to be afraid of if they investigated.
After Wang Biao left, Su Peipei was locked in the interrogation room and remained silent no matter who came to question her.
She was hoping Wang Biao would come and rescue her, but after waiting all day, he never showed up.
The police station had already reconciled accounts with the textile factory based on the ledgers, and the evidence was conclusive: falsifying accounts, engaging in smuggling work, and selling smuggled goods.
"Su Peipei, I'll ask you one last time, do you plead guilty?" Zhang Bing threw the documents in front of her and said in an unfriendly tone, "Are you still hoping your old flame will come and bail you out? Don't dream about it, he would have come long ago if he wanted to. Now, he's probably in trouble himself."
Su Peipei's eyes darkened slightly, and she asked in a daze, "What's wrong with him?"
Perhaps because she hadn't spoken or drunk water for too long, her mouth was dry and her voice was hoarse and parched, like a broken bellows.
“He ran away, we don’t know where he went.” Zhang Bing tapped the documents on the table. “The evidence is conclusive. Even if you don’t tell the truth, we can still convict you, but that would be an even more serious crime.”
“I said…” When Su Peipei heard him say that Wang Biao had run away, she knew that she was finished too, completely finished.
In the evening, after delivering dinner to the hospital, Su Xiao took some fresh vegetables she had just picked from her spatial storage to the Shu family's house.
Xu Xiuyun looked at the vegetables she brought and was very pleased. She smiled and said, "We have vegetables at home, why are you spending money again?"
"Just a few kinds of vegetables, grown at home, not worth much." Su Xiao arranged the vegetables on the shelf and said with a relaxed smile, "Aunt Xu, what are you making? I'll help you."
"No need, it'll be ready soon. Go wait in the living room, your uncle will be back soon..." Xu Xiuyun ushered her out of the kitchen.
Helpless, Su Xiao could only obediently go to the living room to wait. There were various newspapers on the coffee table, which she picked up and flipped through, and she didn't find it boring.
Shu Zhendong rushed home excitedly. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Su Xiao in the living room and said with a smile, "Xiao Xiao, guess what good thing happened today?"
Su Xiao raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, "Uncle Shu, is there something good happening today?"
"Yes." Shu Zhendong was too excited to notice Su Xiao's little actions. Perhaps he was too eager to talk. "Old Li, Li Zhian, and Old Sun, Director Sun of the Finance Department, have all been arrested."
Su Xiao was taken aback for a moment, then overjoyed, "Really, really?"
"Really." Shu Zhendong began to talk at length about another arrest operation that afternoon.
This afternoon, a military vehicle arrived at the factory, and seven or eight soldiers got out, armed with weapons. They barged into the finance department and Deputy Factory Director Li's office, took people away, and left cleanly and efficiently.
Su Xiao listened with great interest, and her mood was also very pleasant.
The matter that had been weighing on her mind ever since she transmigrated was finally resolved.
The Li family, the Li family that harmed the original owner in the previous life, has finally been extricated ahead of schedule, and can no longer persecute other innocent girls.
Su Xiao smiled slightly and thanked Shu Zhendong again, "Uncle Shu, thank you."
"Hey, you're too kind." Shu Zhendong laughed heartily.
