Chapter 375: On-Site Evidence Collection

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Miao was suspected of stealing a hefty sum of three thousand, a sum that was by no means small even to them. How audacious of her!

Moreover, the money was a betrothal gift from someone else. She had taken the money, refusing to marry, and left her adoptive family to bear the blame. She then ran off to the city and stole Gu Zit s fiancé, and now they were married.

Although the wedding banquet couldn’t proceed as planned, it was a fact that Lin Miao and Gong Zhan had already obtained their marriage certificate. A person like Lin Miao was not fit to be Mrs. Gong. Some things couldn’t be changed now, but she should never be allowed to keep the gold jewelry.

Thanks to the police maintaining basic order, everyone’s actions in retrieving the gold jewelry were somewhat restrained. However, due to the large number of people taking the gold, Lin Miao’s neck and wrists were left with several red marks, and her hair was a mess, making her look particularly disheveled.

Gu Shan and Zhang Mei stood there, their faces alternating between shades of gray and white, clearly still in shock from certain truths.

They remembered that Lin Miao had never spoken well of her adoptive family, so they naturally assumed that their daughter had been living a life of unimaginable hardship these years.

They had also visited the previous Lin family home, located in a mountainous area, which was so poor it was hard to look at. Therefore, they were even more convinced that Lin Miao had not had an easy life these years and wanted to make it up to her.

When the two families had mistakenly taken the wrong child, it was the adults’ negligence that had caused Lin Miao to bear the hardship alone. They felt guilty and wanted to make amends. What was wrong with that? Why had things turned out this way!

Gu Shan and Zhang Mei couldn’t help but look at Lin Miao. She was now being controlled by others, her expression panicked and helpless, crying pitifully. She couldn’t even lift her head to answer Gu Zi’s questions.

The couple now had no choice but to understand that Lin Miao had not been telling the truth about the Lin family after returning to the Gu family. But perhaps she did it to gain more of their care and affection. It was a pity she had used the wrong method.

Looking back, when Lin Miao had said she could use her own private money to cover the cost of the banquet, Gu Shan and Zhang Mei had been very proud of their daughter. Now they knew that the money was such a thorny issue. The Gu couple was confused.

While Lin Miao was indeed at fault, Gu Zi shouldn’t have been so cold-hearted and relentless in revealing the truth. At least for the sake of them raising her for so many years, she should have let Lin Miao off the hook and resolved the issue privately, shouldn’t she?

Although they had lived each other’s lives for many years due to the identity swap, the mistake was not caused by Gu Zi. But Gu Zi had indeed enjoyed the good days that originally belonged to Lin Miao.

After all, Lin Miao had lived in the countryside for her. No matter how much the Lin family loved her and didn’t make her work, it was still the countryside. How could it compare to life in the city?

As Lin Miao was on the verge of being taken away for questioning by the police,

Zhang Mei hurriedly caught up, pleading, “You can’t arrest my daughter, Captain He, can’t we settle this matter privately? Gu Zi, I’m telling you, I demand that this matter be handled privately!”

Gu Zi stood to the side, unable to muster a smile. At this point, they still believed this matter could be resolved privately? Lin Miao was intentionally stealing! She calmly spoke, “I’m sorry, Aunt Zhang, I’m not the plaintiff.”

Upon seeing this, Captain He also shook his head with a cold expression, “This case is very serious, it was intentional. Even if the plaintiff requests to settle privately, it’s unlikely that the suspect will walk away unscathed. Mrs. Gu, you are also a member of the compound, you should not need me to explain these things. Also, please take us to your home, we need to do some on-site evidence collection.”

Due to Captain He’s investigation order, the Gu family had no reason not to comply. Gu Shan and Zhang Mei ultimately had no choice but to accompany the police, along with Lin Miao, to the Gu residence to collect evidence. The Gong family, He Ming, and Boss Huo were also called in as witnesses.

In the end, the police found all the luxury items Lin Miao had purchased with the gift money in her room. With the person and the stolen goods apprehended, there was no room for denial. The stolen goods and the suspect, Lin Miao, were immediately taken back to the police station for further investigation.

Upon hearing that the bride had been arrested at the Gong and Gu family’s banquet, the compound was abuzz with people coming to watch the spectacle. They watched as Lin Miao, the biological daughter of the Gu family who had only recently been found, was taken away in a police car.

This scene not only served as a harsh slap in the face for the Gu family, but also inexplicably slapped the reputable Gong family. Their reputation was tarnished, and He Ming left with Boss Huo, both looking quite satisfied with the outcome..
