Chapter 65 If there's a next time, it won't be as simple as just stunning someone with electricity.
The residents' group chat instantly became active.
'Young Master Wei, you're really something! Quickly secure the scene and let us get to the juiciest part.'
"This is catching them red-handed. According to criminal law, trespassing is a crime punishable by imprisonment. Shen Shiqiu, how do you explain this? @ShenShiGroupShenShiqiu."
"Why is she climbing over someone's wall so late at night instead of sleeping? What was she thinking? The guy climbing the wall is obviously a bodyguard. This guy is so unlucky to have such an employer."
"What else could it be? They're after Miss Lin's house, of course. I heard the Shen family was willing to offer a hundred million yuan in child support just to get that mansion from Lin Muyan."
According to rumors, Miss Lin has already repaid the 100 million yuan. Miss Lin, mindful of the Shen family's kindness, managed to scrape together 100 million yuan despite being kicked out and penniless. It remains to be seen whether the Shen family will be satisfied with this outcome.
Seeing the residents' group discussing the Shen family's affairs without restraint, and even making Shen Shiqiu sound quite unpleasant, while Lin Muyan received a wave of sympathy and praise, Shen Shiqiu was almost furious.
Mrs. Shen was filled with hatred upon seeing this, wishing she could rush to the Lin family right now and slap Lin Muyan a few times.
But now, the Shen family's reputation is the most important thing. If this continues, the group's stock will be affected, and Chairman Shen Shiqiu may be impeached by other shareholders because of this.
Shen Shiqiu clearly realized this as well, and they returned to Shen Jiaojiao's room.
Shen Jiaojiao was completely wide awake and extremely frightened. When she saw her parents return and looking at her with scrutinizing expressions, her heart skipped a beat.
"Jiaojiao, tell me, is the person in this photo you? Have you ever been here?"
Shen Jiaojiao was extremely terrified, but her face showed confusion as she sobbed, "..."
"Daddy, don't you believe me? If you don't believe me, you can check the home security camera footage. I didn't go out tonight."
Shen Shiqiu had already believed it to some extent, but Mrs. Shen said:
"What about Xu Jin? He's your bodyguard now. Just now, Wei Tuling from the Wei family went to the scene and found Xu Jin lying there."
"How is he? Is he dead?" Shen Jiaojiao almost swallowed the question, only realizing then that her parents were looking at her with disbelief.
Shen Shiqiu took a deep breath: "It really is you. You're so careless. You've even let someone catch you red-handed."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jiaojiao's initial fear subsided. It seemed that her father didn't think what she did was excessive; he just lacked a bit of agility and got caught on camera.
Just then, the doorbell rang at the Shen family's house. The police responded quickly, and four officers arrived at the door.
Lin Muyan finally arrived, stepping on the gas. After parking the car and getting out, she found a crowd gathered in front of her house. The streetlights were on, illuminating everyone's faces.
Lin Muyan also spotted the Shen family of three in the crowd, along with several police officers in uniform.
She was slightly surprised that someone had actually called the police for her, and it seemed that they had almost finished handling the matter. Shen Jiaojiao looked terrified, and the Shen couple looked like they had swallowed a few flies, their faces extremely ugly.
"Lin Muyan is here, officer. She is the owner of this mansion."
Suddenly, a handsome young man in the crowd saw Lin Muyan and his eyes lit up. He quickly grabbed a policeman and walked towards Lin Muyan.
Lin Muyan took a closer look and recognized the man. He was Wei Tuling, the only son of the Wei family. Old Master Wei was a well-known real estate tycoon in China with assets worth hundreds of billions, far surpassing the Rong family. The Shen family was nothing but ants in front of the Wei family.
Why is Wei Tuling so enthusiastic? She doesn't remember having much interaction with him.
And isn't the Wei family's villa on the other side of the mountain? The villa on the mountainside is very, very large, built around the mountain. It would take the Wei family more than half an hour to drive here on the winding mountain road.
Wei Turing grinned and stepped forward, enthusiastically acting as the middleman.
“Officer, she is the homeowner, Lin Muyan. I have already told you about her background. The Shen family has a grudge against her.”
"Lin Muyan, I called the police for you. Don't worry, I protected the crime scene immediately. The footprints and fingerprints at the scene are all there. The bodyguard from the Shen family has confessed everything. It was Shen Jiaojiao who instructed him to climb over the wall. Your courtyard wall is so high and looks very sturdy. Tell me which company did the renovation. I'd like to renovate mine too."
Wei Tuling is extremely outgoing and can't stop talking once he starts, which is completely at odds with his calm and handsome appearance.
Before Lin Muyan could speak, the police officer quickly spoke up. He had already witnessed Wei Tuling's talkative nature and was afraid that the guy would keep talking and delay the important matters.
"Ms. Lin, please show us your ID card so we can register you and ask you for some more information."
After Lin Muyan finished speaking with the police officer, she asked:
"So what punishment will Shen Jiaojiao receive?"
"We will take her back to the station for further ideological education, and depending on her behavior, her detention will not exceed fifteen days."
Lin Muyan opened her mouth, but did not plead for Shen Jiaojiao. As for what connections the Shen family would use, that was none of her business.
Does Shen Jiaojiao really think that becoming the daughter of the Shen family means she can disregard the law and do whatever she wants?
Her safe house had a comprehensive security system, which is why Shen Jiaojiao didn't succeed. What if it didn't have those security systems? Wouldn't she have been able to break in so easily?
Her despicable behavior warrants her being locked up and properly educated to prevent her from doing even worse things in the future.
Seeing that Shen Jiaojiao was about to be taken away, the Shen couple became anxious, and Shen Shiqiu rushed over to Lin Muyan.
"Lin Muyan, this is ultimately a family matter. I think we should resolve this privately and not let the police take Jiaojiao away, okay?"
Although Mrs. Shen already had some issues with Shen Jiaojiao, she was, after all, her own daughter with whom she had a paternity test, and the daughter of the Shen family. How could she be allowed to have a criminal record with the police?
She stepped forward to take Lin Muyan's hand, but Lin Muyan dodged her.
Suppressing her disgust and anger, Mrs. Shen smiled at Lin Muyan and said:
"Mu Yan, Jiao Jiao is still young and doesn't understand things. Please forgive her this time, okay? You two sisters are destined to be together. For my sake, let's settle this privately, okay?"
Mr. Shen: "Mu Yan, you are a grateful child. We were wrong before, and you have paid off the child support. In the end, there is no deep hatred between us, don't you think?"
Seeing that Lin Muyan remained unmoved, Shen Dong gritted his teeth and made a decision in his heart.
"Mu Yan, this mansion is yours to begin with, and has nothing to do with our Shen family. I, Shen Shiqiu, will never covet your house again. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Muyan couldn't help but look up at Shen Shiqiu. Seeing that he seemed somewhat unwilling, she sneered inwardly.
He must have been heartbroken when he made that decision, right?
However, she didn't believe in verbal promises.
"I'm sorry, you two, but she should be punished for her actions. She's not a child anymore. I'm the same age as her. Even I know that adults should be responsible for their actions, yet you say she's still young?"
"Furthermore, the mansion originally belonged to me and has nothing to do with your Shen family. Chairman Shen's statement is rather ridiculous, as if your Shen family gave it to me. I'll say it again: Xiu is trying to take advantage of the mansion. If there's a next time, it won't be as simple as just being stunned with an electric shock!"
