Luo Jintong sighed and said, "How would we dare?! We don't have the time to think about this. We're more worried about Xiao Qiang getting arrested than we are. But now that we can inform them, it's time to do so. I'll call Fang Cheng's father now. Sigh, I've never made such a call before. What should I say? Sigh. "He sighed and walked to the side to make the call.
Qin Meijuan grabbed Li Rui's hand gratefully and said, "Lil Rui, you're our family's savior. Why are you so nice? I really regret it now. I regret not marrying Xiaoshan to you back then. If only you were my son-in-law. You're a hundred times better than Fang Cheng … No, you two can't even be compared at all. Fang Cheng was a bastard when he was alive. Even after he died, he still brought harm to our family. Lil Rui, you're still so kind …"
These words made Li Rui and Luo Shan blush. The two of them looked at each other. Luo Shan was even more embarrassed and quickly turned her face away.
Li Rui lowered his head and smiled. Godmother, you're only saying nice things now. Why didn't you say this when our Li family was in trouble? You didn't even come to our house. Who are you trying to fool now? Do you think I'm a fool? I'm only doing this for Xiao Shan and Xiao Qiang. I'm also here to help the two of them. I'm not doing this for the two of you.
"The police are here!"
"Hey, this is even more exciting!"
"Who are the police going to arrest?"
Suddenly, there were people talking outside. Li Rui heard that the police were here. He was about to walk out when his phone suddenly rang. He took it out and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. It was probably the police station's superintendent. He picked it up. Sure enough, it was the superintendent. He had just arrived at the neighborhood and wanted to talk to Li Rui face to face.
Li Rui hung up the phone and went out to pick him up. He quickly brought the superintendent back to the unit and introduced him to Luo Shan and Luo Qiang. He also asked Luo Shan to tell him about Fang Cheng's accidental death.
The director listened very carefully. After listening, he asked the siblings a lot of details. After confirming that there was no need to worry, he went out to arrange things for the subordinates he brought over.
A few minutes later, the sound of a woman wailing could be heard from outside. Her voice was extremely sorrowful.
Luo Jintong and Qin Meijuan looked at each other. Qin Meijuan said, "Fang Cheng's parents are here. You go out and deal with them."
Luo Jintong had a bitter expression on his face, but he still walked out obediently. Not long after he left, shouts and roars could be heard from outside.
Li Rui noticed that Qin Meijuan and Luo Shan had a distressed and helpless expression on their faces. He reckoned that Fang Cheng's parents couldn't accept their son's death, especially that he had died in front of the Luo residence. Therefore, they vented their anger on Luo Jintong and blamed him.
Li Rui comforted the mother and daughter. "It's okay. They can do whatever they want. We're in the right. We're already letting them off easy by not pursuing the matter of Fang Cheng hitting Luo Shan."
Just as he finished speaking, the shouts and curses suddenly came from afar. Then, there was the sound of chaotic footsteps at the door. Luo Jintong retreated into the house, followed by a man and a woman. Their expressions were angry and sad. They should be Fang Cheng's parents.
"Luo Qiang, you bastard. You killed my son! Give me back my son's life! "
"Luo Shan, Luo Shan. Chengcheng just didn't agree to divorce you. I didn't expect you to have the intention to kill him. You killed him in front of your house and even slandered him by saying that he fell to his death. I didn't expect you to be such a woman. I, as your father-in-law, have always valued you as my daughter-in-law. You really have a heart of snakes and scorpions … "
As soon as the two of them came in, they shifted their anger onto Luo Shan and her brother. They each took aim at a target and instantly turned Fang Cheng's accidental death into Luo Shan and her brother's death.
Luo Shan and Luo Qiang felt wronged and defended themselves. Luo Shan even showed the scars on her face to Fang Cheng's parents to show that she was the victim.
However, Fang Cheng's parents ignored her. Fang Cheng's father kept scolding Luo Shan while Fang Cheng's mother kept spewing filthy words. She kept insulting Luo Shan and Luo Qiang. Later, she even pounced on Fang Qiang and scratched him.
Luo Jintong and Qin Meijuan naturally didn't want to see their son suffer and hurriedly went forward to stop her. Everyone pulled at each other and it instantly became a mess.
Li Rui hurriedly went out to find the superintendent and asked him to come back and preside over the situation. The superintendent came back with his subordinates and shouted at Fang Cheng's parents to stop their violent actions. Then, in the name of recording their statements, he asked his subordinates to bring the two families back to the police station to record their statements. Li Rui got into the car without hesitation and followed them.
In the police station, after the police recorded the statements of the Luo and Fang families, the superintendent concluded that this was an accident and that the parties involved, Luo Shan and Luo Qiang, did not have to bear any responsibility. Of course, Fang Cheng's parents had the right to file a lawsuit in court and ask Luo Qiang to pay a certain amount of financial compensation for Fang Cheng's death. However, Luo Qiang did not have to bear all of the compensation. The owner of the broken beer bottle that caused Fang Cheng's death had to bear a portion of the compensation. However, it seemed that it was difficult to find that abominable person.
Fang Cheng's parents couldn't accept this result and cried and made a scene in the police station. Fang Cheng's mother asked the police station to shoot Luo Qiang to avenge her son. This ridiculous request naturally didn't get the superintendent's attention. Fang Cheng's father threatened that if the police station couldn't make a decision for his dead son, then he would go to the Northern District Public Security Bureau to find a familiar leader to do justice.
Fang Cheng's death was originally an accident. In addition, the Luo family's background was connected to the highest leader of the Northern District Public Security Bureau, Tan Yang. Therefore, the superintendent didn't care about Fang Cheng's father's threat and told him to find anyone. However, they couldn't make a scene in the police station right now, otherwise they would be chased out.
Fang Cheng's parents didn't dare to make a scene in front of the superintendent and could only swallow their anger and leave. However, anyone could predict that the two of them would definitely not let this matter go. This was just the beginning of the disaster caused by this accident.
After Fang Cheng's parents left, the Luo family didn't have anything else to do and it was time for them to go back. The police station didn't detain Luo Qiang and let him go home. However, they also asked him not to go out for the time being and to come whenever he was summoned. Otherwise, he would have to bear all the consequences caused by this. How could Luo Qiang not agree? He made a promise to the superintendent.
Before leaving, Li Rui shook the superintendent's hand and said some polite words.
The bureau chief told him the truth. "The worst that can happen is that the Fangs will find the branch's leader and ask him to uphold the so-called justice. However, this case is purely an accident. Besides, the bureau chief is watching over you, so no matter who it is, they won't be able to stir up any trouble. If you're afraid of trouble, you can ask the superintendent to talk to the deputy leaders in the bureau and ask them to stay out of this matter. Then, the Fang family won't be able to make any trouble, and this matter can be resolved as soon as possible. "
Li Rui was very grateful for his kind advice and thanked him again. However, in his heart, he felt that there was no need to do that. If he really did that, it would seem that he was using his power to oppress others. Even the Fang family's channel for help was blocked. It was too overbearing. If word got out, he and Tan Yang would be in trouble.
Outside the police station, the four members of the Luo family surrounded Li Rui and sincerely and excitedly thanked him for a long time. Especially Luo Qiang, who was no less than treating Li Rui as his second parent. His eyes were filled with blind trust and respect when he looked at him.
Li Rui didn't pay much attention to him. He only paid attention to Luo Shan. He saw that her expression was sad and her eyes were red and swollen. She looked extremely pitiful. However, when she looked at him, her eyes flashed and she opened her mouth. It seemed that she had something to say to him, but it was inconvenient in front of her family. He was curious and didn't know what she wanted to say to him.
After the two sides were done with the formalities, they parted ways on the side of the road. The four members of the Luo family took a taxi back home to deal with the follow-up matters. Li Rui also rushed to the Qing Bao store to pick up his car.
Not long after he got in the car, around 4: 30 pm, Li Rui received a text message from Qin Lina, whom he had just met yesterday. The content was very simple: "Do you have time to have dinner together tonight?"
When Li Rui saw this message, he frowned. Qin Lina's words were somewhat frivolous. This was not only reflected in the "ba" auxiliary word, but also in the sentence structure. Qin Lina didn't say "I'll treat you to dinner" or "You'll treat me to dinner", but instead, she said "Let's have dinner together". This "together" highlighted the ambiguity and also showed that Qin Lina's invitation was not pure.
Li Rui thought back to when he met Qin Lina yesterday and her attitude towards him. He was even more certain that she was trying to seduce him. As for the reason, Yuan Jingjing had already explained it very clearly yesterday. Not only could she taste the freshness of him, a young grass (compared to her, an old cow), but she could also use him to put in a good word for her in front of Song Chaoyang so that she could be promoted. Thinking about this point, he immediately felt endless disgust towards this woman. He thought about how he knew many women in the officialdom, such as his good sister Zhang Mingfang, who also had the intention to befriend him in order to improve. However, not only did her actions not disgust him, but they also made people involuntarily want to help her. But why was it that when it came to Qin Lina, she was so blatantly vulgar? It seemed that women were really different from each other. Some were born to be liked, while others were born to be hated.
He really wanted to directly reject Qin Lina and not give her any illusions. However, considering that she knew about his relationship with Yuan Jingjing, if he rejected her and angered her, would she use this to threaten or even take revenge on him? Thinking about this, he had a big headache and couldn't help but raise his hand to slap his own mouth. Damn, he was really a bastard. Yesterday, when he saw Jingjing, he hugged her and kissed her. In the end, it was seen by Qin Lina. Could it be that he would explode and die if he endured it for a few minutes? This was really a self-inflicted evil.
The taxi driver saw him slap his own mouth and was shocked. He looked at him curiously and asked, "Are you okay?"
