âShu Yan, watch yourself. If it isnât for Mom, you think you would have been able to marry Ye Zhiqiang? And that you would have been able to come into so much money if you hadnât married him? In fact, all these money came because of Mom. Even if you donât give them all, you have to at least give us half of them. Besides, didnât you give money to Shu Jianyang? You need to figure out whoâs close to you and whoâs not. We are your real brothers.â Shu Jianbin, upon hearing Shu Yanâs words, starting getting anxious.
He heard snickering from the other end of the phone. âThis was the first I have never heard that when a woman gets a divorce, she needs to give half of her wealth to her brothers. Have you no shame? I am better off without brothers like you. Now that youâve mentioned it, I only have one brother and that is Shu Jianyang. Besides, I have never given him a dime. He earned his own success. Unless leeches like you. All you know is to leech blood from your sisters.â
Shu Youfu was just about to say something when he was stopped by the cop.
The person that they have sent to contact the City Nan police station had returned and confirmed that they did, indeed, have a Shu Yan in their system.
âPardon us, Madam Shu. We were able to confirm that you are who you said you are and everything had been straightened out. We apologize for the inconvenience caused.â
âThank you, Mr. Comrade Cop. And, please do keep my location from my parents.â
âDonât worry. We shall not divulge your personal information without your consent.â Having said that, they hung up the phone.
âWhat do you mean by that? Why canât I find out where my daughter is?â Lin Zixiang immediately asked about Shu Yanâs whereabout after the call had been disconnected; nevertheless, the cops would not share that information.
âShe had explicitly asked us not to share that information. As such, we donât have the right to share that information.â The cop shrugged.
Noticing that Shu Youfu and Shu Jianbin were about to make a fuzz, the cop gave them a solemn look. âThis is the police station. Are you sure you want to make a scene here?â
Many people were still afraid of the cops back then. Not to mention that Shu Youfu and Shu Jianbin were the ones who were only crossed in their own territory. Not another peep came out of them after the warning from the police.
âI am taking off if there is nothing else.â Shu Jianyang glanced over at Shu Youfu and the others. Their ties could be considered as severed by this point.
âSure, just sign here and you are free to go.â They then pulled out another document for Shu Youfu and the others to sign while giving them a lecture. âWe will let this one go as it is your first offense. Keep in mind that there are penalties for making phony reports. Now that case has been solved, hurry up and get out.â
âNo, about my sister......â
âThatâs your family business. Nothing we can do about it.â
Shu Youfu was intimidated the minute that Shu Youfu saw Shu Jianyang waiting for him outside.
âJianyang, we are just worried about Yanyan. It doesnât mean anything.â*
Shu Jianyang chuckled at them. âAs you are relatives, I will let this go this one time. Do not come looking for me in the city again. I will let our grandparents and my parents know that I will have nothing else to do with you going forward.â
On the other side, Shu Yan, too, was very speechless as she looked at the phone. How could anyone be this shameless? They made a phony police report just for the sake of locating her?
After thinking about it for a little while, Shu Yan picked up the phone and dialed Shu Jianyang, âThird Brother, I have a favor to ask.â
She needed to have this taken care of. She couldnât stand them popping up and disgusting her from time to time.
Translatorâs rambling:
Really? It doesnât mean anything when you accuse someone of murder? It was just a friendly murder accusation...
