Chapter 386: Relatives
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Upon hearing Xie Huan’s words, Gu Teng snorted and said, “No one can bully my daughter.”
In Xie Huan’s impression, Gu Teng had always been gentle. This was the first time she had seen her speak so harshly. However, when she thought of how an adorable child like Yunbao was going to be injured, she felt angry.
Xiao Jing walked over and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t let this happen. I’ll protect my daughter.”
Only then did Xie Huan notice this handsome young man and ask, “Are you Xiao Jing?”
Although Xiao Jing did not know Xie Huan, he understood that she was very close to Gu Teng. He nodded and said, “It’s me.”
Xie Huan immediately began to size Xiao Jing up. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was like a mother-in-law sizing up her son-in-law. Xiao Jing also allowed her to look at him with a very generous attitude.
Seeing Xiao Jing like this, Xie Huan smiled and said, “Then I wish you a long life together.”
On one side, it was a scene of friends reuniting, and on the other, Gu Teng had already put on a long face at the police. Why couldn’t they find any evidence?
The policeman’s face was covered in sweat. Logically speaking, this case was not difficult, but the chief had already said that he had to take good care of Zhang Juan. He said that she was a relative of the Gu family and had to be respected. However, now that a Miss Xie had appeared, he really did not know how to deal with her.
Gu Lin could also tell that the police officer was in a difficult position. He called the police chief and said, “My niece was almost injured backstage in the competition. You haven’t dealt with such a simple matter yet. Do you want to be the chief or not?”
Hearing Gu Lin’s words, the police chief almost fell out of his chair. His brain began to spin rapidly to analyze the matter.
Of course, to get to the position of chief, he was not a fool. He quickly understood what he should do and said ingratiatingly, “So it’s because the young lady of the Gu family was almost injured. Previously, Madam Zhang didn’t mention a word when she called. She only said that her child was bullied and that I hesitated because she was related to the Gu family. I’ll get the people present to do business!”
“l don’t want to hear you tell me this on the phone again. Get over here!” Gu Lin said angrily.
He was not a kind person to begin with. Moreover, this police chief was too detestable. If the injured child today did not have any background, would he help Zhang Juan and her daughter get away with it?
Zhang Juan didn’t know anyone else from the Gu family, but she had seen Gu Lin when she went to visit Ye Yan with her family. She quickly walked over and said, “Mr. Gu, you have to stand up for our Xiao Li. If you think about it, she has to call you Uncle.”
Gu Luo looked at Zhang Juan in surprise. It was strange. Could it be that she couldn’t tell that Gu Lin was here to support Yunbao?
Of course, Zhang Juan knew that Yunbao was Gu Lin’s niece, but in her understanding, a niece was not considered a relative. She was just a child born from a daughter who had married out.
Her family was related to Ye Yan by blood. Although Ye Yan had left the Gu family, the two children were still around. They were real relatives.
She remembered that Gu Lin’s attitude was very enthusiastic every time they came to visit, but what she did not know was that Gu Lin was only maintaining a polite appearance and thinking that Chang Li could play with his daughter.
Thinking of this, she continued, “It’s also because Gu Yun is insensible. It’s clearly not a big deal that she’s not injured, but she insisted on making such a big commotion to make everyone uneasy.”
Gu Lin stared at her coldly and said, “Is that really what you think?”
Zhang Juan did not realize that danger was approaching and continued to chatter, “In my opinion, Gu Yun is a child of another family after all. Her surname should be Xiao. You should focus more on Gu Ming and Gu Zi. I remember that Gu Zi used to like to play with our Xiao Li the most.”
Gu Lin revealed a mocking smile. “That’s because you remembered wrongly.”
At this moment, Zhang Juan finally felt that something was wrong. It was as if Gu Lin was no longer what she remembered.
At this moment, the police chief finally ran in, panting. He rushed to Gu Lin and said, “l didn’t take good care of Miss Gu before. I’ll get someone to take her away now.”
With that, they got someone to handcuff Zhang Juan. Gu Lin stopped him. “You didn’t even get the evidence and you want to take her away. How exactly did you solve the case?”
At this moment, Gu Luo pointed at the police captain who was still wiping his sweat and said, “Tell me, what’s the key to this case?”
The police captain didn’t dare to speak when he saw the chief’s expression, but he was very dissatisfied with the chief’s indiscriminate behavior. After thinking about it, he was prepared to speak..
