Chapter 379: Chapter 379 You Know Full Well Sister Zhou saw that something was wrong and quickly pulled Lin Zhiyi to sit down.
She smiled awkwardly at the police. "Sorry, sheâs been overly worried about her motherâs situationâshe startles easily."
The police officer said they understood and let Gong Shiyan continue speaking.
"The true profiteer is Jiang Fen. While she doesnât have assets under her name, sheâs long since transferred them to her sonâs name."
"Sheâs even arranged a bone marrow transplant for her son, and he knows all about it. All this evidence is included in the documents my lawyer has submitted."
"Her son, taking advantage of his young age, has been spouting nonsense online, exploiting peopleâs sympathy unscrupulously. Heâs even suspected of misappropriating charity funds, with the amounts reaching over one million yuan."
"I demand that Jiang Fenâs son issue a public apology in his livestream."
Gong Shiyan spread out the documents; shockingly, the young boy already had an offshore account.
He even had plans to attend an overseas school in place.
So Jiang Fen used her death to pave a golden road for her son.
And in the process, attempted to drag Liu He and Lin Zhiyi down with her.
Itâs just that Lin Zhiyi hadnât stepped into the fray yet.
Itâs often hard to reconcile human hearts.
And just as hard to establish whatâs right and wrong.
The police, upon seeing the undeniable evidence, had already formed a clear picture in their minds, but they needed further confirmation.
"Please wait for a bit. We will verify everything as quickly as possibleâthis has stirred up a lot of attention online."
"Alright."
With that, the police and the lawyer left together for further investigation.
In less than ten minutes, Jiang Fenâs sonâs livestream account was officially suspended.
Speculation ran rampant online, yet Jiang Fenâs son cluelessly continued to cooperate with his backstage accomplices, slandering others.
Lin Zhiyi glanced at it briefly, then put away her phone, looking at Gong Shiyan with confusion.
"Uncle, why did you say that? Was it his idea?"
Gong Shiyan looked troubled, but finally, as if making up his mind, nodded.
"Yes, it was his idea. Zhiyi, I know youâre angry, but right now, nothing is more important than your motherâs safety. Jiang Fen brought this upon herself."
"What about Wen Qing?"
"Zhiyi, unless Jiang Fen is willing to testify against Wen Qing, itâs unlikely any charges can stick. But her sonâs illness still relies on Wen Qing for treatment. She even put her own life on the line for her sonâitâs obvious sheâs trading her life for his. Do you really think sheâll testify against Wen Qing?" Gong Shiyan asked in return.
"So weâre just letting it slide?" Lin Zhiyi gritted her teeth.
"No. Wen Qing manipulated your motherâs trust in the investment by fabricating much of the façade using Jiang Fen. Didnât she give your mom a significant amount of money? She even signed a contract to make it convincing. This means your momâs profits came from Wen Qing. As for the rest of the money, if Wen Qing doesnât want to get caught, sheâs likely to refund it through Jiang Fen," Gong Shiyan analyzed.
"Huh?"
Lin Zhiyi felt like she had suddenly won an improbable lottery.
Sister Zhouâs eyes widened. "Huh, what? That means the mastermind didnât get a dime and even ended up paying you a dowry! Your aunt truly has good fortuneâachieving her small goal while making others furious in the process."
Lin Zhiyi knew Sister Zhou was saying this on purpose to lighten the mood.
But that was the reality of it.
Unless Wen Qing dared to step forward and admit the over ten million she handed to Jiang Fen was used to deceive Liu He.
Otherwise, she could only suffer in silence.
Gong Shiyan was amused by Sister Zhou.
Not wanting to dampen the mood, Lin Zhiyi forced a small smile but soon found herself staring blankly out the window.
Because the controversy had grown too large, combined with Jiang Fenâs son spreading lies online, more and more people gathered outside the police station, overwhelming those who wanted to report their own issues.
So the police station expedited the verification of all evidence.
By evening, they released an official statement online.
The scammed netizens were instantly outraged.
"A fifteen-year-old boy with such ambitious goals overseas, and we were donating for his treatment? Let him vacate that hospital bed for me!"
"A blogger pointed out earlier that his livestream lighting was very professionalâitâs obviously a team behind him, not some helpless orphan and widow."
"Jealousy makes people twistedâthis is terrifying! Out of envy for Second Young Master and Second Madamâs life, they had to drag others down even in death!"
Casually scrolling, Lin Zhiyi saw mentions of the ambitious goals, confirming that everything was just as Gong Shiyan had said.
Out of fear of being investigated, Wen Qing had refunded the money to Jiang Fenâs sonâs account to dissociate herself.
At that moment, Jiang Fenâs hoarse yelling echoed from outside the door.
"Why are you arresting me? That money isnât mine! Donât you touch my son!"
Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi stood up and walked out of the room.
Jiang Fen, handcuffed, struggled futilely as the police held her.
Suddenly, as if provoked, she lunged in a certain direction.
Following her gaze, it was right at Gong Shiyan, who was supporting Liu He out.
Lin Zhiyi rushed forward, but it was too late to stop her. Fortunately, Gong Shiyan raised a hand and pushed her away.
"Why? Back then, the three of us were the same! Why are you, this fool, the happiest now?"
Liu He, having spent the whole night at the station, was already shaken. Being scared like this on top of it completely unhinged her.
She fainted on the spot, her eyes closing.
Lin Zhiyi hurriedly caught her. "Mom, Mom..."
Jiang Fen stared at Lin Zhiyi, as if looking at her and simultaneously at something else.
"Mom? Heh..."
Before Jiang Fen could finish speaking, the police forced her away.
Lin Zhiyi didnât have time to dwell on her meaning and rushed to take Liu He to the hospital.
Thankfully, it was just fright.
Confirming that Liu He was fine, Lin Zhiyi and Sister Zhou stepped out of the room, leaving space for the couple.
But as Lin Zhiyi turned, her legs gave out, almost collapsing to the floor.
Sister Zhou steadied her. "Whatâs wrong?"
"Probably low blood sugar," Lin Zhiyi said, gripping the wall to stand upright.
"Youâve been preoccupied since waiting for the news at noon and barely ate anything. No wonder youâre feeling weak." Sister Zhou pointed toward the elevator. "I saw some food downstairs earlier. Letâs grab something to eat first."
"Alright."
Lin Zhiyi followed Sister Zhou downstairs, only for the elevator to go up first.
When the door opened to the VIP ward area, Lin Zhiyi remembered that Sang Ran was staying here.
Since they were already here, she figured she might as well visit.
Lin Zhiyi tugged Sister Zhou along and walked over.
Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight ï¤Chapter 378: Sheltering Rebirth of a Village Girl ï¤Chapter 1123 - 286: Retribution, Recognizing Each Other_3 Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress Standing at the door, she wondered about what to say.
But before she could push the door fully open, she heard the voices inside.
Sang Ran asked, "Will Aunt be alright?"
Gong Chen replied coolly, "Sheâll be fine."
Hearing that, Lin Zhiyi let go of the door handle, turned, and pulled Sister Zhou away.
Sister Zhou asked curiously, "Youâre not going in?"
"No need. After eating, I just want to rest."
"Alright. Your place is a total mess today; just stay at my place for now."
"Thank you."
...
Inside the ward, the conversation continued.
Sang Ran asked, "Third Young Master, whereâs Aunt? Why havenât I seen her yet?"
Gong Chenâs expression remained cold as he looked at Sang Ran. "I thought you knew."
Sang Ran hesitated, weakly smiling. "Knew what?"
