Chen Family Villa.
"Ah Jun, how could you do something as foolish as arson! What a terrible thing to do! If you're caught, you'll go to jail!" Chen Fangmei paced back and forth, her heart filled with anxiety.
After Fang Jun received a phone call from a stranger saying that his accomplice had been arrested by the police, he panicked and confessed everything to Chen Fangmei.
Chen Fangmei only had one son. Frustrated and disappointed, she panicked and took out her savings book from home. She then had the nanny pack her things and personally drove him away.
Unexpectedly, their car was blocked by Little Fatty and Monkey at the foot of the villa mountain.
Seeing that they were trying to escape, Little Fatty brought over some logs, which were covered with barbs.
"Damn it, what do you want?" Fang Jun felt uneasy and leaned out of the car window, shouting loudly.
The monkey opened his car door, pulled him out, and said coldly, "We brothers have a score to settle with you."
"You thugs, what do you want to do to my son?" Chen Fangmei got out of the car, holding up a mobile phone, and threatened, "Believe me or not, I'll call the police and have you arrested!"
Little Fatty said coldly, "Fine, let the police judge this. Your son is suspected of arson, and now you want to run away!"
Hearing this, Chen Fangmei's face turned pale, and she had no choice but to use both soft and hard tactics, saying, "My old man is sick, and we have to rush to the capital to visit him. Please let us go there quickly." She took out a thousand yuan from her small handbag and said generously, "As long as you let us go, this money is yours."
One thousand yuan is equivalent to their annual income.
Little Fatty and Monkey didn't even glance at them, and coldly shouted, "You burned down our shop and think you can just pay us off? Dream on! Come with us to the police station!"
As they spoke, they stepped forward to stop the person.
Seeing this, Chen Fangmei said to Fang Jun, "Jun, run!" She actually wanted to grab Xiao Pang and Monkey by herself.
Fang Jun panicked and ran away, but was caught by the police who came running towards him.
Upon seeing this, Chen Fangmei was terrified.
With trembling hands, she dialed the Fang family's number in Beijing and cried, "Dad, something's happened to A-Jun!"
When Fang Jun was taken to the police station, the arsonist had just finished giving his statement, and another accomplice was also arrested.
"It was him! He gave each of us five hundred dollars and told us to set fire to Qiao's house!"
"But I didn't know anyone lived upstairs. At most, I committed arson, which doesn't constitute intentional homicide!"
Upon seeing Fang Jun, the first man to be captured shouted excitedly.
Fang Jun's face turned cold, and he retorted, "I don't know you, don't talk nonsense!"
"Well, you bastard, you're turning your back on me now! I must have been blind to believe you!" the man yelled at his accomplice.
Fang Jun crossed his arms and said coldly, "I refuse to answer any questions until my lawyer arrives."
As expected of a rich young master, he quickly adjusted his mindset. He thought that as long as he insisted that he did not know those two people, they could not do anything to him.
He sat in the interrogation room, looking incredibly arrogant.
“If he doesn’t admit it, or if he finds someone else to take the fall, we really can’t do anything to him.” Mo Cong also arrived and said to Lu Siqiao, “You should also be prepared.”
In this era without cell phones and surveillance cameras, when Fang Jun found the two men, no one was present, and all transactions were in cash. It was really difficult to find any evidence against them.
Lu Siqiao whispered in Mo Cong's ear that she had a kind of truth-telling potion. She took out a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Mo Cong, asking him to find a way to give it to Fang Jun.
Mo Cong was skeptical, but he used his connections to cut off the power to the interrogation room where Fang Jun was being held.
The weather was extremely hot. Fang Jun was cursing and scolding people to fix the power supply. He saw a bottle of mineral water on the cabinet, and without thinking much, he drank it all in one gulp.
Soon, Chen Fangmei arrived with her lawyer.
As they approached the door, they saw Fang Jun standing on the table, speaking with utter arrogance: "Yes, so what if I sent people to burn down the Qiao family's house? Let me tell you, my grandfather is a member of the Fang family in Beijing. He knows many big shots. If you know what's good for you, you'll let me go!"
Chen Fangmei was terrified and rushed in to stop him.
The guards only allowed the lawyer in, but she was kept out.
The lawyer reassured Fang Jun, telling him not to talk nonsense, otherwise, even a god couldn't save him.
"Who do you think you are, daring to order me around!" Fang Jun roared, seemingly out of his mind. "I've been annoyed with Qiao's House across the street for ages. Why is their business better than mine? Are all their customers blind? Only when Qiao's House disappears completely will no one stand in the way of my grand plan to make a fortune..."
The lawyer was on the verge of tears; how could he possibly win this case?
Chen Fangmei was already slumped at the door, looking utterly hopeless and helpless.
Because Fang Jun confessed without reservation, he was convicted of arson and attempted murder and sentenced to five years in prison.
Chen Fangmei also had to compensate Qiao House for economic losses of 5,000 yuan, etc. Disheartened, she closed the Natural Milk Tea House and prepared to return to Beijing to seek help.
Lu Siqiao is finally on vacation.
On this day, Lu Mingfeng and his family took a train to the capital.
Lu Siqiao had never been to the capital in her previous life, but in this life, she was determined to take her family on a proper trip.
"Grandpa, I've done a complete research trip, I guarantee you won't regret it." Two days later, gazing at the scenery rushing past the window, she excitedly lifted Lu Jin'an from her arms. The two, one big and one small, beamed with joy as they exclaimed, "Little brother, look! We're almost there!"
Master Lu and the others were also full of anticipation, never expecting that they would be able to come to the capital and tour the beautiful landscape of their motherland in their lifetime.
This is all thanks to Joa.
After exiting the train station, Lu Siqiao and her group saw a sign held high in the crowd: Welcome Qiao Wa's family!
"Qiaowa!" Cheng Ze quickly stepped forward, patted her head, and politely greeted Master Lu and the others.
A year has passed, and he has grown taller and his skin has become much darker, making him look healthier and more rosy. His eyes are deep, as if they hold a swirling galaxy.
Lu Siqiao only reached his shoulder.
Her face was flushed, and her eyes were sparkling.
It was a long-lost sense of warmth.
"Qiaowa, you're finally here!" Cai Ming rushed over and lifted Lu Qiaosi up, saying happily, "Your godparents have missed you so much!"
"Did that brat from the Fang family hurt you?" He turned Lu Siqiao around again and asked with concern.
Lu Siqiao blinked: "Godfather, I'm fine."
Cheng Ze took them to a manor in the suburbs of Beijing.
Upon seeing the antique-style courtyard house, Lu Siqiao fell in love with it at first sight.
"To the left is a 500-mu orchard, and to the right is a 500-mu fishpond." Cheng Ze handed a contract to Lu Siqiao. "You also have a 10% share here."
It turns out that Cai Ming and He Zhangzhi poured all their wealth into buying this place, intending to create a business legend of self-production and self-sales.
