Lu An'an waved with a smile, "When you get there, you'd better give a proper explanation in detail~"
[Hmph, you've been trying to harm me all this time. If I don't give you something to do, I'm not the villainous female supporting character!]
Lu Yanli sighed to himself, thinking that his younger sister never forgot her persona.
"An'an, brother!"
Hearing the commotion outside, Shen Jiajia rushed out of the house and stopped in front of Lu An'an, asking with a worried look, "An'an, are you all rescued? Are you alright?"
Lu An'an felt a warmth in her heart, patted Shen Jiajia's head, and replied softly, "You're not hurt."
Shen Jiajia breathed a sigh of relief before turning her gaze to her older brother. "Brother, are you alright?"
The people present: "..."
Lu An'an: "......"
[I hope Jiajia, that little rascal, won't get chased and beaten by her brother?]
Lu Yanli: Luckily, my sister won't upset him like that.
Shen Yi silently repeated several times to himself that this was his own sister, and there were other people around, so he had to give his sister some face. He barely managed to suppress the urge to hit her and gritted his teeth as he replied, "Your brother is perfectly fine!"
Shen Jiajia was completely baffled. She hadn't provoked her brother today, so why did he look like he wanted to beat her up?
Just then, Lu Yixuan, He Beichen, Gu Tingyan, and Gu Shichuan also walked out of the house, still half asleep.
Lu Yixuan looked annoyed at being woken up, "What are you doing? It's so noisy!"
When Lu Rongyu saw Lu Yixuan come out, her eyes lit up with surprise and she cried out for help, "Brother, Yixuan, save me! Lu An'an is going to take me to the police station!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yixuan was jolted awake. He strode forward and blocked the police officer who was holding Lu Rongyu. "Let go of Rongyu! Lu An'an! Why did you let the police take Rongyu to the police station!"
Lu An'an looked at Lu Yixuan, who was blocking the police, and her smile was devoid of any warmth: "She wanted to harm me, so I let the police take her away. What's wrong with that?"
Lu Yixuan didn't believe it. "How could that be! She's your sister!"
Lu An'an smiled lightly, a smile tinged with sarcasm and indifference: "My sister? Any Tom, Dick, or Harry can claim to be my sister?"
Lu Yixuan was stunned, anger welling up inside him. His tone was tinged with accusation: "Grandma has already registered Rongyu under Uncle's name. How come she's not your sister? You should tell the police to release Rongyu right now!"
Lu An'an didn't want to continue this pointless argument with the brainless Lu Yixuan.
Since you two are such a close sibling, why don't you go to the police station together?
She said calmly to Qi Rang, "Captain Qi, Lu Yixuan came with Lu Rongyu. Why don't we take him away and question him as well? What if he knows something?"
Qi Rang looked expressionlessly at Lu Yixuan, who was obstructing official business, and nodded. "If they are together, they should indeed be questioned." Then he turned to two policemen and called out, "Come here, you two, take this gentleman away as well."
Lu Yixuan looked at the two police officers approaching, his face filled with disbelief. "Lu An'an, how dare you?! I'm your brother! What did I do to get the police to arrest me?!"
Lu Yanli's brows furrowed with impatience, his tone cold: "What are you talking about? An'an's own brother is standing right here. What are you trying to prove? Aren't you curious about why Lu Rongyu was arrested by the police? Perfect, why don't you come along and find out? Don't worry, the old lady dotes on you two so much, she'll definitely bail you out soon. Of course, that's assuming you haven't done anything wrong."
"Second brother, you..."
Looking at his unfamiliar second brother, Lu Yixuan felt a chill in his heart. Rong Yu was right. Ever since Lu An'an came back, his uncle's family had become different from before. Although his second brother did not often return to the old house, when had he ever treated him like this?
This sudden change filled Lu Yixuan with an indescribable resentment and confusion. He glared at Lu An'an with hatred, each word seemingly squeezed out from between his teeth: "It's all your fault! Lu An'an! You've turned this house into a mess the moment you came back, you're a jinx... ugh!"
With a fierce look in his eyes, Lu Yanli rushed forward and punched Lu Yixuan hard in the face. Then, he spoke, his tone as if carrying shards of ice: "Lu Yixuan, have I been too kind to you? Who are you calling a jinx? I don't even know who you are now. How dare you talk to my sister like that? I'll break your teeth, you believe me?"
Lu Yixuan reached out and wiped his fingertips, revealing bright red bloodstains. His face was contorted with rage, and his voice was filled with fury: "Lu Yanli! I call you Second Brother out of respect, and you dare to hit me?!" As he spoke, he raised his fist to retaliate, but the police officers around him quickly held him down to prevent him from doing so.
Qi Rang said coldly, "Sir, the police are still here, and you want to start a fight?"
Lu Yixuan touched the corner of his mouth, pointing at Lu Yanli with resentment, "He hit me first, why didn't you arrest him?"
After listening, Qi Rang turned to Lu Yanli and gave him a perfunctory lecture: "Mr. Lu, you can't use your hands next time. You're getting in the way of our business."
Lu Yanli looked at Lu Yixuan provocatively, then apologized to Qi Rang with a grin: "Yes, I was wrong. I will definitely not interfere with your official duties next time, Captain Qi."
Qi Rang nodded, signaling his subordinates to quickly take the two away.
Seeing that Lu Yixuan was no longer of any use, Lu Rongyu turned her gaze to He Beichen, who was standing to the side, and pleaded pitifully, "Brother Beichen, please save me."
Looking at Lu Rongyu's state, He Beichen felt a pang of pity and frowned as he looked at Lu An'an, saying, "Lu An'an, Rongyu is family to you..."
Lu An'an interrupted He Beichen expressionlessly: "What? Mr. He also wants to go to the police station with these two siblings?"
