Chapter 150: Investigation

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gong Zhan approaching her voluntarily surely didn’t wasn’t good news, thought Gong Xin. But hindered by her short legs, she might not be able to escape.

“What do you want to say?” she asked calmly as she walked up to him and poured herself some water.

Gong Zhan wasn’t coy either and asked, “When Gu Zi worked as a broadcaster at the radio station, did she have an affair with the station’s leader?”

In response to Gong Zhan’s astonishing and infuriating question, Gong Xin spat out the water she was drinking.

“Gong Zhan, don’t tell me you think that some man helped Gu Zi? Couldn’t it be because of her husband’s connections?”

Although it was said that Gu Zi was marrying a pig farmer, at least he owned a pig farm.

Since he was running a business, what was so odd about knowing one or two officials? How could Gong Zhan jump to conclusions and question Gu Zits character? Men’s thinking was too dreadful!

Gong Zhan’s face was cold as he firmly believed in his own judgment. “Ask around at the station and see if there was anything unusual about her previously,” he said.

“Please don’t order me around!” Gong Xin said with her hands on her hips. “Besides, what’s wrong with you? You both are about to get married separately, yet you’re still meddling in Gu Zi’s affairs?”

Gong Xin felt that something was amiss, and she shot a strange glare at her brother.

After Gong Zhan left, Gong Xin suddenly realized something. Could it be that her brother liked Gu Zi?

Lin Hun stomped out the cigarette rudely. “I was fooled by Lin Miao at that time, too! But I’m better than you all; I can admit my mistakes.”

Just then, a police car stopped at the Lin family’s gate, and two officers got out, making everyone nervous.

The officers asked, ‘Who’s from the Lin family?”

Lin Cheng and Li Hua stepped forward to respond. The police asked Li Hua,

“Regarding the missing gift money, do you remember someone seeing Lin

Miao returning to the village on that day? Can you find that witness?”

Li Hua affirmed that she could and, under everyone’s watchful eyes, got into the police car to look for the witness.

Those who had been unwilling to admit their mistakes were instantly refuted. At this rate, it was clear the Lin family couldn’t have lied.

After dinner, Mrs. Lin and Li Hua took Gu Zi into a room.

Mrs. Lin handed a pair of red embroidered shoes with intertwined lotus patterns to Gu Zi, while Li Hua gave her a red box, instructing Gu Zi not to open it yet.

Mrs. Lin said, “Since ancient times, wealthy families have provided their daughters with everything they need from birth to death, as part of the dowry to take to their husband’s home. We don’t have that capability, but we want to provide what we can..”
