The man in black gave a sinister smile: "Only the dead know that saying nothing is the best policy."
Grandma Ming was so frightened that her heart pounded, and she didn't dare to follow him at all, watching helplessly as Ding Ruoxu left.
She wanted to go to the school to see Ming Xiaoxiao, so she carefully went through the back door, but she was arrested by the police as soon as she appeared.
——
"This old lady is quite something; she's very good at counter-surveillance." Officer Lu was handling this matter again.
He glanced at Xie Sidu and Xie Li. "She requested to see Old Master Xie and Xie Li. What do you think? Should we go see them?"
——
"She won't see me?" Granny Ming couldn't believe it. "Why won't Xie Li see me? I'm her Granny Ming. I took care of her so many times when she was little..."
"Didn't Ding Ruoxu send you to keep an eye on me?" Xie Li appeared at the door of the interrogation room.
Xie Sidu originally did not agree to let him come to see Grandma Ming.
With the college entrance exam just a few days away, he didn't want Xie Li to continue to be distracted by these things.
However, Xie Li thought about it and decided to come, since Granny Ming had been kind enough to give her a meal.
Grandma Ming forced a smile. "Lili, I really had no other choice but to steal some things to try and get some money... Please, have mercy and drop the charges, okay?"
"Not good!" Xie Li shook his head. "You know your own intentions. Withdrawing the lawsuit is impossible. Since you dared to reach out, you should be prepared to bear the corresponding responsibility."
No, she didn't do a good job! All she did was steal an antique, why is Xie Li being so aggressive and relentless?
The Xie family is about to go bankrupt, why do they still have time to care about such a small matter?
It's better to let her take her things than to have them confiscated by the court!
Grandma Ming's face still held a kind expression. "Lili, Grandma is so old. Do you really want Grandma to go to jail?"
"If you can honestly explain your relationship with the Ding family, and how you are involved in my disappearance back then, do you know Old Zhang? If you can answer these questions clearly, I can drop the charges." Xie Li looked at Grandma Ming calmly, but the words he uttered were like thunderclaps from a clear sky, making Grandma Ming panic.
"W-what are you saying?" She looked at Xie Li with a "surprised" expression.
Xie Li: "You don't understand? Oh, Ding Ruoxu or Old Madam Ding understand, right, Old Zhang should understand too, and Feng Meihua should know you, right? If we give them a chance to reduce their sentence through meritorious service, what do you think they will do?"
Grandma Ming's face twitched almost imperceptibly, but her eyes remained kind and harmless: "You child, sigh, when will you get rid of this habit of spouting nonsense?"
Xie Li stood up: "It's okay if you don't want to confess, I have a way to find out the truth about what happened back then."
As Grandma Ming watched Xie Li's figure disappear into the interrogation room, she gradually broke out in a cold sweat.
——
Following the arrest of Grandma Ming, the Xie Group, which was in the eye of the storm, issued a statement with a very firm attitude.
The statement included two police reports and warned several media outlets and marketing accounts that were most active in spreading rumors and defamation, reminding them that the internet is not above the law and that spreading rumors and defamation is a legal offense. The Xie family has already collected evidence and filed a lawsuit, and the statement reminded them to be prepared.
The two police reports were as follows: one concerned the criminal activities of Shen Erzhu and his wife, including human trafficking and extortion of the Xie family; the other concerned Granny Ming's theft.
While onlookers were impressed by the Xie family's strong character, they were also puzzled as to what connection Ms. Ming Caiyun's theft had with Shen Erzhu's case.
