She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

Officer Lu only said that Zhu Ling admitted to being bribed, but did not say who bribed her.

This made me vaguely uneasy. My subconscious told me that the person who bribed Zhu Ling was most likely not Lin Xixi herself, otherwise Officer Lu would have clearly pointed out Lin Xixi's name. After all, Lin Xixi herself was a person involved in the case or a suspect, and was an old acquaintance.

"Of course it's Lin Xixi, who else could it be besides her?" Yuan Tianye took over my words and said firmly, "Don't worry, sister, Lin Xixi will definitely not escape this time! She will definitely go to jail!"

My brows furrowed even deeper and I just stared at Officer Lu, waiting for his answer.

"It's really not Lin Xixi." Officer Lu said in a low voice.

My heart finally died, and I knew that Lin Xixi was even smarter than Zhao Hongmei. Even if she acted on impulse, she would quickly find a way to clean up her mess. She would definitely not instruct Zhu Ling herself, but would definitely let someone else do it. So even if Zhu Ling confessed, she had a suitable scapegoat and would not be implicated.

"How could it not be Lin Xixi? Officer Lu, please check again, including the name of the trading account. You will definitely be able to find some clues and traces." Yuan Tianye was anxious.

"Don't worry, Xiaoye. Listen to what Officer Lu has to say." I quickly held Yuan Tianye down and turned to look at Officer Lu. "The person who instructed Zhu Ling must be related to Lin Xixi."

"Ms. Meng is really smart." Officer Lu praised me with a smile. "Zhu Ling said that they traded in cash, so we couldn't find any clues online. But Zhu Ling described the appearance of the person she traded with. We have found out the identity of this person based on his characteristics. This person is Lin Youde, Lin Xixi's father."

"Lin Youde?" I was surprised and stood there in a daze.

It turned out that he was the one helping Lin Xixi to clean up her mess behind the scenes.

But I soon figured it out. After Lin Xixi's momentary impulse, her first reaction must have been to call someone she trusted, and the people she trusted the most should be her family.

Because it was an emergency, Lin Youde handled it urgently. Also, in order to keep it confidential, he did not look for irrelevant people. He completed the deal himself and cleaned up the mess for Lin Xixi.

"Now that we have found the suspect, bring him here for a thorough investigation. Lin Youde is Lin Xixi's father, he won't be able to escape!" Yuan Tianye looked relaxed and said with his fists clenched.

Officer Lu also had a serious expression on his face: "My teammate has already gone to pick him up. Please rest assured, we will investigate this matter thoroughly, restore the truth, and catch the real culprit!"

But my heart is heavy.

If I had known about this before yesterday, I would have felt relieved and would have asked Officer Lu to investigate thoroughly without hesitation.

But it happened that yesterday I already knew Lin Youde's other identity. He is Lin Xixi's father, my father, and my aunt's brother. My aunt has been worried about his safety for many years and is so eager to find him and meet him. At this time, he is involved in my case again and has become an important suspect. He is very likely to bear legal responsibility.

If my aunt knew this, she would be very sad, and I...

I don't know how to choose.

After I signed at the police station, I said goodbye to Officer Lu.

On the way home with Yuan Tianye, Yuan Tianye noticed that I was in a bad mood and said, "Sister, it's okay. We will definitely find out the truth about this. Even if Lin Xixi can't go to jail, her father will have to go to jail. After all, they are all members of the Lin family, so one of them has to stand up and go to jail."

I nodded.

"And you don't have to worry about anything else. Aunt Zhang has already made a call. Zhou Hanzhi can't reach out to them. Officer Lu is a very responsible police officer and will not let the criminals go easily." Yuan Tianye added.

I was stunned when I heard this.

Lin Xixi's plan was not a problem. After all, Zhu Ling's hometown was so far away and so remote. Who would go to such a remote mountainous area to look for someone for such a minor case? And why did she go there twice in a row and spend so much energy to bring Zhu Ling's son to Beijing and Hong Kong?

What's more, Lin Xixi is Zhou Hanzhi's official girlfriend. The case involves the family of such an important person. Who would deliberately offend Mr. Zhou for someone like me who comes from a humble background?

But they miscalculated.

They didn't expect that I would have a persistent and determined friend like Yuan Tianye by my side, who was willing to do his best and take risks for me.

They also didn't expect that I had friends like Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Tingyuan around me. They just wanted to support me and give me justice because they loved me.

They would never have thought that there really was a good police officer like Officer Lu who was upright and incorruptible and would get to the bottom of the matter and seek the truth.

I am lucky and happy to have these people around me.

"Okay, I'm not worried." I nodded and answered seriously.

But Yuan Tianye frowned: "Sister, why are you still unhappy? Is it because you don't want to buy meat for me to make twice-cooked pork? Don't worry, I will pay for all the ingredients later so that you don't have to spend money."

"Nonsense. Although I, your sister, have limited financial resources, I can't be unable to afford two pounds of meat, right? Besides, you have done so much for me. Let alone one serving of twice-cooked pork, I would be willing to make ten servings." I immediately interrupted Yuan Tianye and said hurriedly.

After saying this, I saw a smile of success on Yuan Tianye's face: "Really, girlfriend, can I have ten servings of twice-cooked pork? Okay, then I'll start keeping accounts. Today is the first serving, and I still have nine servings to eat."

Hey, this kid, he was teasing me on purpose to make me angry. The key point was that when I was angry, I actually promised to produce ten servings of twice-cooked pork, and he took the opportunity to fulfill his promise.

But I am willing to do it. If ten servings of twice-cooked pork can bring me a friend like Ono, then I am willing to make a hundred servings...

However, I couldn't let this kid mess around, so I seriously corrected him: "I promise you, you will have the privilege of twice-cooked pork in the future. If you want to eat it, I will make it for you, but there is one thing you must change. I am your sister, not your girlfriend, and you can't call me that."

The main thing is that this will cause misunderstandings from others, which I don’t mind, but I’m mainly worried that it will affect Ono’s future love life.

But Yuan Tianye raised his eyebrows and said mischievously: "Just call me, girlfriend, girlfriend, girlfriend."

"You little brat, just be naughty. I'm going to beat you up..." I wanted to hit him, but he was driving and I didn't dare to move. I could only pretend to twist his ear.

At this moment, my cell phone rang urgently.

I immediately stopped making trouble with Yuan Tianye and took out my cell phone.

It was my aunt calling. I answered the phone immediately and called her. Then I heard her crying voice on the other end of the line: "Xuxu, your father has been found."
