Li Yan's eyes widened in surprise. "Uncle's back? Mom, how did you know?! I didn't see him at Grandma's house!"
She adored her uncle the most; he was handsome, especially when he wore his military uniform, which made her stare at him with wide eyes.
When she was little, she would bring a picture of her uncle to school, and he would be the coolest person in the whole school!
Mu Jiuhong said, "He told me the date he would be back when he left. He should have been back yesterday, but something happened that delayed him. I didn't see him yesterday, but he will definitely be back today!"
Although her younger brother is younger than her, he is her source of confidence.
She raised her younger brother when he was little!
Hehe, she has a family to rely on. She'll have her younger brother bring a few of his best buddies to Li Wenbo and Cheng Xiaohui's house and teach them a lesson. She doesn't believe Li Wenbo won't be scared!
She made up her mind to take her daughter back to her parents' home and wait for her younger brother, Mu Cangnan.
In the interrogation room, Cheng Xiaohui answered all of Captain Liu's questions, explaining the events of that year clearly and plainly.
Captain Liu grew angrier as he listened. He never imagined that a perfectly good family would be ruined by a nanny!
He slammed his hand on the table and said, "Sister Cheng, you've suffered so much injustice over the years, I will definitely help you get justice!"
Jin Cuicui's crimes are heinous; she'll never walk out of prison again!
Cheng Xiaohui cried so hard she could barely breathe. After all these years, she could finally pour out all her grievances, and Captain Liu was willing to believe her!
This sense of trust was so precious to her. She had said these words to others before, but they all thought she was crazy...
She choked up as she said, "Captain Liu, thank you! Thank you for believing in me! I'm not afraid of any injustice I suffer, I just hope my daughter can return to the Li family openly and honestly."
Captain Liu said, "That's for sure! Li Xiyue is your and Li Wenbo's daughter. The blood test results can prove that she is your biological daughter!"
"Once I submit the case file to the higher authorities and receive their approval, you can transfer Li Xiyue's household registration back!"
In this era, household registration is extremely important; only one family member can transfer their household registration here.
Moreover, having a household registration meant having various coupons such as grain coupons and meat coupons; without coupons, you couldn't buy anything even if you had money.
Cheng Xiaohui thanked Captain Liu. The thing she had longed for her whole life was finally about to come true; her daughter was finally back by her side!
Li Wenbo waited outside the interrogation room the whole time, and he could hear everything that was said inside clearly.
Even a grown man couldn't help but shed tears.
When Cheng Xiaohui and Li Xiyue walked out of the interrogation room, Li Wenbo lowered his head, too ashamed to look up at Cheng Xiaohui.
He said, "Xiaohui, I'm sorry. I was foolish. I didn't believe you back then, and you and our daughter have suffered so much... Please forgive me!"
Li Xiyue grabbed her mother's arm and said, "Mom, don't forget how you've managed all these years."
"All of this is thanks to Li Wenbo! If he had believed you back then, would you have suffered so much injustice?!"
She had to remind her mother that what she feared most was that her mother would soften her heart and forgive Li Wenbo!
Cheng Xiaohui's lips trembled slightly as she said, "I haven't forgotten... Lao Li, why wouldn't you believe me back then..."
This is the question she has wanted to understand all her life.
Li Wenbo closed his eyes painfully and said, "When I got home... I saw you in bed with another man... What man could tolerate such a thing..."
"It's all Jin Cuicui's fault! I fell for her trick! I know I owe you and our daughter so much. Let's go home, and I'll make it up to you both!"
Before Cheng Xiaohui could speak, Li Xiyue interjected, "You think you can just take us home like that? Ha! What were you doing back then? What were you doing when my mother was seriously ill?!"
She grabbed Cheng Xiaohui and left, not giving Cheng Xiaohui a chance to stay.
As Cheng Xiaohui was being led out of the police station by her daughter, she couldn't help but turn her head back and saw Li Wenbo following behind.
She said to Li Xiyue, "Your father has come looking for us... Actually, what happened back then..."
Li Xiyue interrupted her mother, "Mom, don't make excuses for him! You've suffered for so many years, you can't let it all be for nothing, let's go!"
She unlocked the bicycle and took her mother home.
Sitting on the back of the bicycle, Cheng Xiaohui said, "That kind of thing... no man could tolerate it if he saw it..."
I can understand how your father felt at the time... As long as he admits his mistake and treats you well... actually..."
Li Xiyue said, "Mom! A person must have backbone and integrity! You can't let anyone mold you into a puppet, otherwise people will think you're easy to bully."
I'm all grown up now. Even without a father, I'm all grown up. From now on, it's just the two of us, mother and daughter. We'll live our lives to the fullest, and let others envy us!
She's absolutely capable of taking good care of her mother, so why does she want to go back to the Li family?!
Cheng Xiaohui slowly lowered her head, then couldn't help but turn back to look at Li Wenbo.
Li Xiyue could sense her mother's subtle movements. She sighed inwardly. Cheng Xiaohui had suffered so much, yet she still couldn't let go of Li Wenbo...
Li Wenbo watched Li Xiyue and Cheng Xiaohui walk away until they were out of sight before returning to the police station. He didn't want to leave yet; he couldn't swallow his anger!
In those days, police stations would build a few small bungalows in the backyard, and suspects would be kept in these bungalows.
Li Yin saw Li Wenbo walking towards her through the iron gate.
She grabbed the iron gate and shouted, "Dad, I'm innocent! I'm innocent! I'm clearly your biological daughter, why is this happening? Why is this happening? I don't know anything!"
In the detention cell next to Li Yin's, Jin Cuicui sat slumped on the wooden bed, her only moving part of her body being her eyes, which darted around aimlessly.
There was only one thought in her mind: this time, she and her daughter were finished!
Li Wenbo walked to the iron gate, pointed at Jin Cuicui angrily and said, "Jin Cuicui! You ruined my whole family! You'll never get out of prison for the rest of your life!"
Li Yin, I've treated you like my own daughter, but you've been lying to me all along!
Looking at his daughter, he felt a metallic taste in his throat from anger, and a spurt of blood gushed from his chest.
Li Yin cried out, "Dad! I don't know anything! I don't know anything!"
"Help! Someone, please save my dad! My dad is coughing up blood!"
Upon hearing Li Yin's shouts, the police officers rushed to the backyard, took Li Wenbo away, and sent him to the hospital for a medical examination.
When Li Yin saw Li Wenbo leave, her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground.
She clutched her hair and said to Jin Cuicui, "I can't just end like this! I can't!"
"I haven't lived enough in this life yet! I haven't inherited the Li family's fortune!"
The young police officer walked over and said, "Jin Cuicui, Li Yin, let's go! To the interrogation room! Honestly confess your crimes. Confess and you'll be treated leniently; resist and you'll be punished severely!"
