After saying that, Li Qiongan looked at the stunned Sze parents. They were so frightened that they did not even dare to breathe too loudly in front of the police officers. They said angrily, “They were the ones who wanted to marry their daughter off to me so badly. They took the initiative to arrange the marriage! I didn’t snatch her away. Why should I be arrested? Why should I be arrested?!”
Li Qiongan was already arrested by the police at this point. Chi Yang looked at him and said expressionlessly, “I’m arresting you not because you’re trying to marry Sze Lingyun, but because you have a connection to a murder case that took place yesterday. Yesterday, Sze Lingyun was attacked by two truck drivers on her way home. The truck drivers were cooperating with the driver of the taxi that Sze Lingyun was in. All three of them were working together and planning to kill Sze Lingyun on the highway. Upon investigation, we learned that the two truck drivers were gamblers who had been working for their transportation company to pay off their huge debts. Your son paid off their debts not long ago. And the taxi driver, whose daughter had uremia, did not have the money to treat her. Your son also paid for her medical expenses. So, I have good reason to suspect that you’re related to this attempted murder. Whether you want to marry Sze Lingyun or kill her, go to the police station and tell them. I’m only responsible for proving that you’re related to this murder.”
Li Qiongan stared at Chi Yang with his eyes wide open. It was as if he was listening to a fairytale. His face was full of disbelief.
Wu Pingting sneered and said, “Tsk tsk, I was saying that I would bankrupt your Rongxing Company tomorrow, but it looks like there’s no need for that now. You and your son are both connected to a murder case. Who knows if you’ll be able to worm your way out of this one? This is karma! Sze Lingyun is a 20-year-old girl who’s so beautiful and such a talented student. Why should she marry a greasy old man like you? Even if she wanted to marry an uncle, he would definitely be a tall, handsome, and well-built elite of an uncle! Someone like you isn’t even fit to kiss her feet!
“Also, I followed Sister Sze here for a few days to stand up for her! Szesze is the eldest daughter of our Wu family now that my grandfather’s taken her in as his goddaughter. Do you think a greasy-faced man in his 40s or 50s with an annual income of ten million is qualified to marry the eldest daughter of the Wu family? Looking at your arrogant face just now, I couldn’t get a word in edgewise. If you really dare to try to marry my Sister Sze, the Wu family will make sure that your time in Sea District comes to an end!”
Li Qiongan had been arguing with Chi Yang just a moment ago. However, after hearing Wu Pingting’s words, his entire body lost all its previous vigor and vitality.
He would never have thought that an unfavored daughter from a village on the city outskirts was the godgranddaughter of the Wu family of Sea District. He had only wanted to find a young and beautiful successor. How had he ended up offending the Wu family?
“Let’s go!”
Li Qiongan was pushed by the police behind him. He staggered forward and fell to the ground.
When the police heard that this man had made an enemy of the Wu family, they gave him even less face. They reached out, grabbed Li Qiongan’s handcuffed hands from behind his back, and rudely pulled him up.
Li Qiongan let out a painful roar. He had a diet full of oily food, rarely exercised, and already had serious shoulder and neck problems. This move dislocated his left arm.
Seeing Li Qiongan’s clearly dislocated arm falling off his shoulder while his hands were still handcuffed, Mrs. Sze could not help but scream out in fear.
