1190: The Big Shot Of Li City

The Big Shot Of Li City

"Do you need the president to accompany you?"2

Qiao Xi hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Yes! I'm just a weak woman. My precious collection was ruined by Xia Mengyan. I didn't want to report it to the police at first, but my husband encouraged me to go head-to-head with evil forces, so I finally agreed to go to the police station."

Song Shijing was speechless. She was already pretending to be weak before reaching the police station?

At the police station.

Xia Yunlou said hatefully, "Qiao Xi stole the bracelet! Arrest her for interrogation now and ask her to hand over the bracelet!"

The police officer looked troubled. "Madam Xia, you said that Miss Qiao stole it, but you didn't provide any substantial evidence. We can't arrest her. As for who stole your item, we still need to investigate it. Please give us some time."

Xia Yunlou glared at them. "What do you mean? You don't believe me? Other than Mengyan and me, only she touched that box. She must have stolen the bracelet. She's only 20 years old, but she's already stealing things. If you don't arrest her, she'll definitely steal more expensive things in the future!"

The police officer said patiently, "Evidence is important in a case. We can't arrest someone just because of your words. If we wrongly accuse Miss Qiao…"

Madam Xia insisted that Miss Qiao had stolen something, so they would have to investigate Miss Qiao first. However, without evidence, they had no right to arrest her. They could only go to her house to find out the situation.

Xia Yunlou's face was ferocious as she shouted without caring about her image, "What evidence do you need? My words are evidence. Let me tell you, I'm the daughter of the Xia family. I'm also Qiao Xi's—"

"Madam Xia, if you have anything to say, tell me directly. Why make things difficult for them?" A gentle and sweet voice sounded. The few of them looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young lady exuding a pure aura standing at the door. Beside her was a tall and handsome man. The two of them stood there like a painting, pleasing to the eye.

The place was silent for a moment. Xia Yunlou instantly exploded. She pointed at Qiao Xi and roared, "Alright! You're finally here! Hurry up and hand over Mengyan's bracelet! Otherwise, you'll go to jail!"

Gu Zheng stood tall and straight beside Qiao Xi like a mountain. His deep eyes swept across Xia Yunlou. It was just a casual glance, but it made Xia Yunlou shudder, and she instantly swallowed the words in her mouth.

Xia Mengyan took two steps forward, her eyes filled with helplessness and worry. She said gently, "Mr. Gu, I'm really sorry. I told Aunt not to call the police, but she insisted on coming. I believe that Xi Xi wouldn't steal the bracelet. Aunt came to the police station because she was afraid that Xi Xi would go astray. Please don't blame Aunt…

"Mr. Gu, you should take Xi Xi away first! Aunt and Xi Xi are already very distant with each other. If Aunt says something bad again, Xi Xi will definitely be sad! I believe that Xi Xi wouldn't steal anything, and I tried stopping Aunt too. Who knew that she would force me to come to the police station? I tried to persuade her for a long time, but she…"

Xia Mengyan stood in front of Gu Zheng as if she was an innocent little white flower. She made it seem that everything was Xia Yunlou's idea, and she had tried her best to stop her.

She bit her lip, and her eyes turned red. She looked at Gu Zheng aggrievedly and shyly. "Mr. Gu…"

"Miss Xia, if I leave with Xi Xi, the entire Li City will think that Xi Xi stole something," Gu Zheng said coldly.

Xia Mengyan's expression froze as she explained in a panic, "No, I'm just afraid that Xi Xi…"

The police officer sized up the person in front of him and found him familiar. Before he could figure it out, Gu Zheng's gaze landed on him. Gu Zheng slowly said, "Officer, I'm Qiao Xi's husband. I want to confirm that Madam Xia accused my wife of stealing a bracelet worth a million yuan?"

"Yes. Since you're here, can you cooperate with us? We want to know what happened." With that, the police officer called for his other colleagues.

"This…" The police officer who had just arrived suddenly froze on the spot and asked the person beside him in a low voice, "Isn't this the big shot of Li City?"

The police officer in charge seemed to realize something and quickly asked, "May I know your name, sir?"

Gu Zheng's expression was indifferent, and there was a cold smile on his lips. He said casually, "My surname is Gu."

"Hiss…" The police officers gasped. This man's surname was Gu, and his aura was very similar to the legendary big shot. Could he be the famous president of Gu Corporation?

Miss Qiao was Mr. Gu's wife?
