Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mrs. Li spat out a sunflower seed shell contemptuously at Wang Yue’s retreating figure. “What’s she pretending for? Nowadays, everyone knows her daughter has been spoiled rotten and is simply no good at ail!”
“Enough, why are you so angry with her?” Mrs. Han tried to calm things down, but seeing that Mrs. Li still seed inclined to gossip about the i family behind their backs, she grew impatient. “Alright, I’m tired today. You can go now, and we can arrange to et up another ti.”
Reluctantly, Mrs. Li left the Han residence.
As soon as she stepped outside, she took out her phone and made a call.
The voice of Jiang He quickly ca through the receiver. “Mrs. Li?”
“Yes, it’s , it’s !” Mrs. Li hurriedly put on a smiling face. “I’ve already started working on the task Master Si assigned to . Now, about my husband’s business…”
“Don’t worry,” Jiang He replied calmly. “Master Si will keep his promise, and as long as you handle things properly, there will be rewards for you.”
Mrs. Li nodded repeatedly. “Alright, alright! I’m going to spread the news about what happened between Wang Yue and her troubleso daughter everywhere. They won’t be able to lift their heads high again!”
With Jiang He’s assurance, Mrs. Li used her communication skills to spread the news, embellishing the story as she called various people.
In less than an afternoon, the news that i Mu was involved in a case and was currently held in the police station had beco common knowledge.
Lin Feng had implicated i Mu in the hope of portraying himself as another victim, reducing his own guilt.
Unlike i Mu, he was an adult and would face legal consequences.
So he sought an opportunity for a reduced sentence.
The situation continued to escalate quietly.
By the ti the news reached i Yun’s ears, it was already too late.
“What did you say?” i Yun listened to the secretary’s report, collapsing into his chair in a daze, unable to recover his senses for a long ti.
The secretary cautiously repeated, “Mr. i, should we use our connections to inquire about the situation at the police station and what evidence they have?”
“She’s getting more and more audacious!” i Yun, infuriated, swept all the docunts on the desk onto the floor and quickly dialed the police chief’s phone number.
For the current situation, he could only first figure out the facts, then spend money to try to minimize the impact. Otherwise, the entire i family would be disgraced along with i Mu!
He had dined with the police chief before and exchanged contact information, but they weren’t very familiar. So, he could only make the call with a trial mindset.
To his surprise, the police chief actually answered his call, which filled i Yun with joy.
“Chief, hello, I’m i Yun. I heard that my daughter, i Mu, was brought into the police station today. I’d like to inquire about the reason behind this. Is there perhaps a misunderstanding?”
The police chief seed to have anticipated his call and remained composed as he said, “Your daughter is the mastermind behind a rape case. The evidence is solid, and calling won’t change anything. I will handle this matter impartially!”
“What?” i Yun felt a sudden darkness before his eyes and nearly collapsed.
The secretary quickly steadied him, asking, “Mr. i, what’s happening with Miss i Mu?”
“That little troublemaker!” i Yun was so enraged that he almost threw his phone. Through gritted teeth, he said, “Let’s go. We’re heading to the police station now! I want to hear her confess in person!”
i Shu returned ho today to find the i family residence empty.
Not only was the old lady absent, but i Yun and Wang Yue had also not returned.
i Yan had heard about i Mu’s situation and eagerly grabbed i Shu’s hand, asking, “Sister, how many years do you think i Mu will be sentenced to?”
i Shu smiled and playfully tapped his forehead. “This isn’t sothing you should be concerned about. Focus on your studies.”
“Doesn’t Sister need to study?” i Yan tilted his head and looked at her, slightly dissatisfied.
i Shu suddenly rembered sothing and pulled out her report card that had been issued today. She said, “This ti, I ranked second in my grade. I’ve already exceeded our previous bet. Now, it’s your turn!”
They had previously made an agreent. i Shu had to rank in the top two hundred of her grade, while i Yan had to make it into the top twenty of his class. Even with the support of the system’s abilities, she hadn’t expected to make such rapid progress.
i Yan looked at the report card and was so shocked that he couldn’t speak. He stared blankly at her grades for a while before finally letting out an excited scream.
i Shu was taken aback by his reaction and playfully scolded him, “Why are you making such a fuss?”
i Yan imdiately looked at her with admiring eyes. “Sister, you’re so smart! How did you manage to study so well?”
i Shu smiled and tempted him, “I just complete my daily learning tasks on ti and in full. You’re smart too, and if you study diligently like , you’ll also beco a top student in your grade!”
“Really?” i Yan’s eyes brightened at the ntion of becoming a top student. “Can I beco as aweso as Sister?”
“Of course, you’re my little brother. Whatever I can do, you can do too!” i Shu encouraged him without hesitation..
