The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

61: Who's Got Such a Nerve

He couldn’t help but say, “When I got back, I heard from my wife that her brother-in-law had brought someone over. Among the few people in this photo, one of them is my wife’s brother-in-law.”

Once he finished, a feisty woman came out and started shrieking, “You idiot, what nonsense are you talking about!”

The man was enraged. “I’m speaking the truth, don’t tell me you want the police to think we’re harboring a criminal? Why should a dutiful businessman like me bear the responsibility of the things that your brother did — I have to tell the police the whole story exactly as it happened.”

The woman wanted to say something in return, but the police reminded her sternly, “Lady Boss, if we find you have harbored a criminal, you’ll have to go to jail for it. I hope that you understand, you have to choose between going against the law or doing the victim justice. Now that the Young Mistress of the Jin family’s whereabouts is unknown, if you continue to obstruct our work, we will have no choice but to bring you in and punish you accordingly.”

The woman who was originally aggressive quietened down significantly.

“You, continue speaking.”

“When I came back from my mother’s house, I heard my wife say that my brother-in-law has brought the person and even got a house — she said something about earning big money. I asked her about it, and she then told me that someone looked for my brother-in-law and made him dispose of a woman while making it look like an accident. Then I found out that the woman was the Jin family’s Young Mistress.” The man continued earnestly, “Officer, whatever I told you is the truth, please don’t arrest me.”

“We won’t arrest you. Bring me to find your brother-in-law. You don’t have to show your face, just bring us to where he is.”

“But…” He looked like he’d been placed in a tough spot. “My brother-in-law is very ferocious…”

“You’re scared he’ll take revenge on you?” the officer said. “He’s in big trouble. He’ll be charged either with life imprisonment or the death penalty for his crime. It’s a very serious punishment, don’t worry.”

“As long as I don’t have to show my face, it’s fine. I’ll show you where you can find him.”

Seeing how cooperative he was, the police officers more or less felt that the case was progressing and that there was room for hope.

At this point, the few men who’d already gotten their money were partying around. They intended to play to their heart’s content that night. Once daylight came, they would go their own ways and pay attention to the news constantly.

The teahouse boss who was on the police car now called his brother-in-law and asked where he was. The man unsuspectingly answered him, and he even told him to join in the fun but he refused.

The group secretly made their way to the destination.

With the sudden ambush, the group of five were caught on the spot.

The man then realized the intention of his brother-in-law’s call a while ago. Knowing very well that he’d been betrayed, he was fuming with rage.

The news continued to report updates on the case’s progress, striving to put the issue into the open.

When the reason for the crime was exposed, it became a sensation online. Netizens started speculating about the reason that had made her a target of assassination.

Some guessed that it was done by a rival of Jin Qingyan’s company, others guessed it was done by a woman, because when a woman goes crazy, they could lose their rationale completely.
