Aunt Zhang was so frightened that her legs went weak, and she instinctively knelt on the ground. "Madam, please investigate! I didn't... I absolutely didn't put anything in the customer's cup to frame Miss!"
Xia Xingyun's lips curled into a cold, sharp smile. She tapped her nails lightly on the table and asked calmly, "Tell me, who exactly ordered you to do this?"
Just as Aunt Zhang was about to protest her innocence, she suddenly saw a photo on Xia Xingyun's phone that Xia Xingyun had deliberately shown her—it was of her youngest son…
They were being led by a man wearing a baseball cap whose face was obscured, and were eating ice cream in what looked like a high-end shop.
After seeing Aunt Zhang's face turn pale, Xia Xingyun slowly asked, "Aunt Zhang, do you remember who instructed you now?"
Aunt Zhang had worked for the Li family for over ten years and had seen quite a bit of life. However, she used to think that people like them who came to work as servants only needed to be diligent and do their jobs well. As for matters related to the master's family, they should just be deaf, blind, and mute, and not listen, see, or speak.
But no one expected that she would get into such trouble today simply by doing her job of helping Li Wanjun serve juice.
With her head bowed, she asked in a desperate voice, "Madam, I...I don't know who ordered me to do this..."
"Let me remind you, who made our young lady look bad today?" Xia Xingyun's voice was cold and menacing, full of threat.
Today, an old sage appeared in the hall. When Li Wanjun used the makeup remover given by the old sage to remove her makeup in public, all the servants were still serving her in the living room. She must know who the culprit behind Li Wanjun's death is.
Aunt Zhang gritted her teeth, "Madam, will you let my child go as long as I go out and identify someone from the Su family?"
Xia Xingyun looked at Aunt Zhang in surprise. "Aunt Zhang, what are you talking about? What do you mean, let your child go? Did I do anything to your child?"
I just felt that your family was struggling financially, and seeing such a cute child who has never had anything good to eat, I asked someone to take him to try the best ice cream.
“Aunt Zhang, don’t worry. Although you did something like this, our Li family is a family that has accumulated good deeds. We will take care of your eldest son’s medical expenses and your younger son’s tuition fees. If your younger son is successful in the future, even if he wants to study abroad, the Li family will support him. In addition, I will also give your husband a living allowance every month.”
Xia Xingyun knew how to give a slap and then a sweet treat, demonstrating a masterful grasp of human nature.
Aunt Zhang's initial resentment at Xia Xingyun for kidnapping her youngest son and threatening her vanished instantly; instead, she felt a sense of gratitude towards Xia Xingyun.
After all, with her current salary at the Li family, she would have difficulty even buying medicine for her eldest son and supporting her younger son's education. Sending her son to study abroad was something she wouldn't even dare to dream of!
But now, Xia Xingyun has given her this hope.
Xia Xingyun smiled and asked Aunt Zhang, "Aunt Zhang, you should know what to say when we go in later, right?"
"Madam, don't worry, I understand." Aunt Zhang agreed solemnly, then asked cautiously, "Madam, if I identify them, will our Duoduo really have the opportunity to study abroad in the future?"
Xia Xingyun looked at Aunt Zhang with a gentle, light smile. "Aunt Zhang, don't worry, I keep my word. Besides, this won't kill you. You can handle it yourself, so what's there to worry about, right?"
Xia Xingyun patiently persuaded Aunt Zhang, who completely trusted her and gritted her teeth, saying, "I'll go to the lobby to turn myself in to the police."
Xia Xingyun frowned and glanced at Aunt Zhang with displeasure. "Aunt Zhang, you should be packing your things and running away now, not turning yourself in, understand?"
Aunt Zhang was stunned for a moment. Although she was not very educated, she knew that if someone turned themselves in after committing a crime, they could be treated leniently.
But now...
She gritted her teeth and said, "Madam, I understand."
At this moment, in the hall.
The police have received a call from the department's laboratory; a new type of psychotropic drug, known as "obedience water," was detected in the residue on the cup.
After ingesting this "obedience water," a person will lose consciousness for a period of time, becoming as obedient as a puppet, and it will also cause permanent damage to the brain.
Meanwhile, Li Wanjun was crying her eyes out in the hall. "Grandma, Dad, police officers, please believe me! Although I handed the juice to Ruanruan and the others, I took it from the maid. I really don't know what kind of 'obedience water' was put in that glass!"
Even if Madam Li and Li Dazhi resented Li Wanjun at this time, Li Wanjun was still their own granddaughter and daughter!
Old Madam Li's face was cold and full of authority. "Which maid did you get the juice from? Explain yourself clearly!"
"It's...it's Aunt Zhang," Li Wanjun said, her face pale and trembling.
"Butler, go and bring Aunt Zhang here to me!"
As soon as Madam Li finished speaking, a police officer came out and said, "I'll go with the housekeeper!"
Seeing that Li Wanjun was crying her eyes out but showed no fear, Xiao Ruanruan understood that Li Wanjun had already found a scapegoat.
She glanced at Qin Xinyu and Qin Shuai, whose faces were symmetrically swollen. The two of them didn't seem flustered at all, and seemed quite confident that Li Wanjun wouldn't dare to expose them.
Xiao Ruanruan ignored Qin Xinyu's venomous gaze. She had already tried to find the most direct evidence by directly investigating the source of the "obedience water" and handing it over to the police, leaving Qin Xinyu, Qin Shuai, and Li Wanjun, who were conspiring together, with no way to refute it.
But to her surprise, she couldn't find a single trace of it.
This is absolutely something that Qin Xinyu and Li Wanjun could not do, let alone Qin Shuai.
Therefore, Qin Xinyu and Li Wanjun...
One of them must have a powerful backer, but who exactly is it...?
Xiao Ruanruan wasn't in a hurry. Anyway, as long as that person had already made a move, it was only a matter of time before she found him.
Soon, the Li family's butler and the police escorted in a middle-aged servant who looked to be in his forties.
With one hand tied behind Zhang Qiuhua's back, the policeman handed an evidence bag to the captain. "Captain, when we arrived, she was about to run away. We found this small bottle and a bag of cash in her residence."
As soon as Zhang Qiuhua saw Su Yiqing, she immediately knelt down in front of him, pleading, "Mr. Su, I don't want your money anymore. I don't want to go to jail! I'll give you back the money, please, please save me!"
