Chapter 162 Being Accused



After Lu Hongjun hung up the phone, he angrily called Lu Jiaxin. As soon as the call was connected, he cursed: "Lu Jiaxin, are you crazy? If you have any dissatisfaction, you can tell me directly. Why do you have to report your Aunt Ding?"

Lu Jiaxin was in a good mood when she heard his roar, and deliberately said, "Ding Jing was arrested? That's great, I'll go buy a chicken and kill it to celebrate."

"Lu Jiaxin..."

When Lu Jiaxin heard his roar, she was not angry at all. She smiled and said, "I didn't just investigate Ding Jing, I investigated you as well. You still have a bottom line and didn't go along with Ding Jing. Lu Hongjun, as a father, he is a scumbag, but as a general manager, he is still qualified."

She said this to anger Lu Hongjun, but she didn't actually send anyone to investigate him. First, she had deep feelings for him and definitely didn't want to see him go to jail; second, she was afraid that investigating him would be discovered. Lu Hongjun had been in this position for not that many years, and he had all the scheming, tactics, and connections that Ding Jing could not compare to. Once discovered, she might be exposed.

Of course, being exposed would not do anything to him, but if he alerted the enemy, he could no longer use this trick against Ding Jing. He could certainly retaliate in other ways, but they would not relieve his hatred. The little girl was dead, dead! Lu Hongjun asked incredulously: "Lu Jiaxin, I am your father, I am your father, and you asked someone to investigate me?"

Lu Jiaxin closed her eyes, and the last moment of her original life emerged in her mind: "I was lying in a pool of blood, knowing that I was going to die. At that time, I thought that my father would definitely find out the truth and send that bad woman to jail to avenge me."

After she finished speaking, she opened her eyes and said coldly, "I didn't expect that after I escaped death, you would still choose that vicious mother and daughter to abandon me after knowing the truth. Lu Hongjun, from that moment on, you are only the father of Ding Jing's husband Zhao Siyi, not my father."

Lu Hongjun always thought that she was just throwing a tantrum, and thought that when she calmed down, the father and daughter would be able to reconcile. So no matter how Lu Jiaguang and Lu Jiajie persuaded him, he would not give in or change. But now he knew that she was not throwing a tantrum, but really did not want to recognize him as her father.

He panicked: "Jia Xin, you are the one I care about the most..."

Lu Jiaxin interrupted him and said, "In your heart, the most important thing is you, and everyone else has to step back."

No matter whether it is Lu's mother, the original body, or Ding Jing, no one can threaten his interests, otherwise they will turn against him.

Lu Hongjun wanted to explain, but the other end of the line kept beeping. He called again, but the other end kept saying busy. He sat down in his chair dejectedly.

Ding Jing was arrested, and it was Lu Jiaxin who reported the case under her real name. The news spread quickly, and the department store’s staff quarters were in an uproar.

Aunt Xue said, "This girl said before that she would not let Ding Jing go. After such a long time without any action, I thought she was just trying to scare her. I didn't expect that she was not just threatening but was actually planning a big move!"

This is much more cruel than beating and scolding Ding Jing. If she is arrested, not only will she be finished, but her daughter will also be implicated and will not be able to find a job after graduation.

Aunt Xue was talking to everyone with great excitement. When she saw Aunt Zhao approaching from a distance, she shouted, "We are talking about Jia Xin reporting Ding Jing here. Come over here and join us."

Aunt Zhao didn’t even have time to hide, so how could she get involved?

There was a lot of discussion in the family compound, and the people of the Lu family also got the news one after another. Lu's second wife knew about this and felt that Lu Jiaxin was right and that she had to kill the vicious woman.

My father-in-law always said that Uncle San had a hard time too. Bah, what was hard about that? He was just so possessed that he didn't even want his daughter anymore.

Second Brother Lu said, "Jia Xin reported the man surnamed Ding. I wonder if it will implicate Third Uncle."

"Even if she is implicated, she deserves it. If Jiaxin had returned home from the ancient capital last year, he would have helped Jiaxin divorce that vicious woman and there wouldn't be this disaster today." Put yourself in her shoes. If your daughter was bullied like this, you would also hope that the child could fight back.

Second Sister-in-law Lu also told Xiaoqiu not to mention this matter in front of Lu Jiaxin. Third Uncle has been very prosperous in recent years, but only the first wife has benefited from it, and their second and third wives have not received much benefit. On the contrary, Jiaxin has given them a livelihood and given their family hope. Second Sister-in-law Lu is very grateful to Lu Jiaxin for this.

Ma Lili was the most worried one: "Jiajie, Ding Jing has been arrested now, and Uncle San will definitely be implicated. What do you think I should do?"

If Ding Jing was arrested, Lu Hongjun would definitely be implicated. Without this big backer, her life in the department store would not be so easy.

Lu Jiajie has already resigned and is now working on his own, so this matter has little impact on him. Seeing Ma Lili's worry, he said, "Why are you worrying so much? You are a formal employee and you haven't done anything wrong. Even if the general manager is replaced, they can't fire you."

"You can't fire me, but you can make things difficult for me."

Lu Jiajie said impatiently: "If you are worried that others will give you trouble, just quit your job. You don't make much money a month anyway, so go home and concentrate on taking care of the children."

Ma Lili was naturally unwilling to do so. Seeing his expression, she did not dare to continue talking about her own affairs. She turned back to the matter of Lu Hongjun: "If Ding Jing betrays Third Uncle, then wouldn't Third Uncle also go to jail?"

Lu Jiajie said seriously, "Don't talk nonsense. My Third Uncle has been cautious all his life and would never do anything illegal. Even if she is making random accusations, she will find out the truth and clear my Third Uncle's name in the end."

He knew Lu Hongjun's ability very well. If he wanted to make money, he would never use his position to seek benefits, as that would be too easy to be caught.

Ma Lili thought about Lu Hongjun's behavior and personality, and nodded slightly. She frowned and said, "Even if he hates Ding Jing, he shouldn't use this method? If Third Uncle is arrested and imprisoned, her college entrance examination and work will be affected."

Lu Jiajie was silent for a moment and then said, "Before Jiaxin reported Ding Jing, she went to Hongcheng."

He guessed that Jiaxin went to Hong Kong this time to settle the household registration. With the household registration in Hong Kong, even if the third uncle went to jail, it would not affect her.

Lu Jiajie felt bad. He had always felt sorry for Lu Jiaxin and sent people to watch Zhao Siyi to vent her anger. But he didn't expect that she would investigate Ding Jing behind everyone's back, collect evidence and find a way out before reporting it in her real name. She kept all these things from him, which clearly showed that she didn't trust him.

Ma Lili was stunned at first, then said, "Don't blame me for reporting Ding Jing. It turns out that she has found a way out. But no matter what, Uncle San gave birth to her and raised her, but he wants to send her to jail. It's too cruel."

Ding Jing was arrested, and Lu Hongjun naturally did not escape either. He was also taken away by uniformed men the next morning. When Lu Jiajie got the news, he immediately went to Guangming Road to find Lu Jiaxin.

"Uncle San was arrested just an hour ago."

Without even raising her eyelids, Lu Jiaxin asked, "Why are you telling me this?"

Lu Jiajie was a little angry, and his words were not pleasant: "Your father has been taken away, and he may be in jail. Why can you act like nothing happened?"

Lu Jiaxin looked up at him and asked indifferently, "What do you think I should do? Cry and regret? I'm sorry, I don't have any of that."

Lu Jiajie was so angry that he yelled, "Lu Jiaxin, that's your father, your biological father. Even if he has many faults, he gave birth to you and raised you to this age."

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Lu Jiajie became even angrier: "Lu Jiaxin, you can make a scene behind closed doors if you're angry, but why did you go and report him? Would you be happy only if he went to jail?"

Lu Jiaxin thought his accusation was ridiculous and asked, "Did I report Lu Hongjun?"

She actually guessed that everyone would blame her once the report was made public, so she had unplugged the phone line since yesterday afternoon. But she didn't expect that the first person to come and scold him was Lu Jiajie.

"Husband and wife are one. If you report Ding Jing, can your uncle still escape?"

Lu Jiaxin said indifferently, "You mean that Lu Hongjun acquiesced to Ding Jing's taking bribes? Otherwise, why couldn't he escape? If he was corrupt and accepted bribes, shouldn't he be arrested?"

"Lu Jiaxin, that's your father, how can you be so cold-blooded?"

Hearing this, Lu Jiaxin wanted to laugh. She didn't explain, but just said coldly: "I am cold-blooded, what's wrong?"

Lu Jiajie turned around and left angrily.

Lu Jiaxin did not regret her behavior, but being criticized by Lu Jiajie still affected her mood, so she only ate a few bites of lunch.

Qian Xiaoxiao herself was not good at comforting others, so she asked Xue Mao to go to Xiushui Street to exchange Xiaoqiu back.

When she saw people, she said to Xiao Qiu, "Just now, Lu Jiajie came over and criticized Sister Xin. You should go and comfort her!"

"good."

Xiao Qiu is a straightforward person. When she saw Lu Jiaxin, she said, "Aunt, Xiao Xiao told Xue Mao that Uncle Wu scolded you and you didn't even have lunch."

"No, I just don't have an appetite. I'll eat when I'm hungry."

Xiao Qiu didn't believe her. She said, "Aunt, I don't think you did anything wrong. That woman almost killed you, so you should take revenge. Besides, you didn't slander her. She did take bribes."

Lu Jiaxin was a little surprised: "This is really your idea."

Xiao Qiu did think so: "Yes. Is it that she is the only one who can harm others and not let others retaliate? Then there is no justice in this world. Not only do I think so, my parents also think you are not wrong. If you want to blame someone, blame Third Uncle. If he hadn't married that vicious woman, if he hadn't been biased, this wouldn't have happened."

Lu Jiaxin felt much better, and she changed the subject: "Xiao Qiu, I'm going to Hong Kong City next month. How about letting you manage the clothing store?"

The topic changed so quickly that Xiaoqiu didn't react for a moment.

"You've been selling clothes for a while, so it should be fine."

Xiao Qiu came back to her senses and said, "Aunt, I can help run the store, but I don't know anything about purchasing goods. My parents don't know anything about it either."

Seeing that she didn't refuse, Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "How to purchase goods, negotiate prices, and provide after-sales service, you can learn these from your fifth uncle. It's not difficult for you, as long as you are willing, you can learn it quickly."

"Will Uncle Wu teach me?"

"I will definitely teach you." Lu Jiaxin said. Lu Jiajie has many shortcomings, but he is loyal and righteous, especially to his family. As long as Xiaoqiu is willing to learn, he will definitely teach her everything he knows.

"Then I'll try."

There are many things to do in the countryside. I am very tired, so I will only update twice today.
