When Xiao Wanxin was caught, she looked a little embarrassed but still maintained her pride.
She dusted herself off, reached out her hand to tuck the loose hair on her forehead behind her ears, and calmly questioned the person in front of her.
"I am the second wife of the Lin family. How dare you do this? Why do you arrest me?"
Xiao Wanxin's voice was sharp, and Chen Jiang looked at the woman with an expressionless face.
The candlelight flickered, and the light shone on her face, revealing a beautiful woman, but at this moment her face was full of haggardness.
Seeing that she was still struggling, Chen Jiang said coldly:
"Second Madam, you are suspected of poisoning Lin Chang'an. There is evidence. I am following the order of Lord Gu and ask you to cooperate with the investigation. If you have any grievances, please come with me. Lord Gu will clear your name."
Chen Jiang was neither humble nor arrogant. He had seen many people like this before.
A thief never admits that he is a thief, and a bad person never thinks that what he does is against the law.
Xiao Wanxin is different. She is a murderer. Although she did not do the murder herself, she has taken a life.
She sneered when she heard Chen Jiang's words.
"If I don't leave, what are you going to do to me? This is the Lin family. You are trying to take someone from the Lin family, but have you asked the Second Young Master's opinion?"
To this day, she still wants to use Lin Ruohai, but unfortunately, even God can't save her.
"Ask him? The Lin family doesn't have an heir yet. Are you planning a rebellion?"
Just when Xiao Wanxin was trying hard to hold on to hope, a voice broke the awkward situation.
Xiao Wanxin turned her head, her face full of surprise.
"elder sister……"
In front of her was the eldest lady of the Lin family, Wang Shuangrou.
Mrs. Lin's voice was full of coldness. Although she no longer managed the Lin family's business, she was still the one who made the decisions for the Lin family.
Xiao Wan looked at Mrs. Lin guiltily and dared not say another word.
An hour ago.
Before Chen Jiang was ordered to arrest Xiao Wanxin, Gu Changyan had already told Lin Meng all the investigation results as soon as possible.
After knowing the whole story, Lin Meng also considered it carefully, and finally, she decided to meet Mrs. Lin.
When Lin Meng walked to the ancestral hall, Mrs. Lin was chanting scriptures, and her back looked so thin.
Since Mr. Lin passed away, Mrs. Lin has been chanting Buddhist scriptures every day and eating only vegetarian food. Due to her sadness, she has become much thinner.
She couldn't bear to disturb Mrs. Lin's peaceful mind, and when she was about to retreat, her words did not escape Mrs. Lin's ears.
"Meng'er, what's the matter?"
Mrs. Lin slowly opened her eyes and turned to look at her.
Lin Meng couldn't help but speak in silence.
"Mom...oh, I...I'm fine."
How can it be okay?
Lin Meng couldn't help but secretly complain about herself.
After all, she was a mother, so she could naturally see what her daughter was thinking. Seeing her melancholy face, Mrs. Lin guessed something.
"Just tell me what you have to say. I can bear it."
Lin Meng took a deep breath and mustered up his courage.
She told the whole truth about Lin Changan being poisoned. After that, Lin Meng couldn't bear to look at Mrs. Lin.
After Mrs. Lin learned the truth, she was stunned for a long time.
The woman who had accompanied her husband since their youth and spent half of his life burst into tears at this moment.
Lin Meng stared over blankly, as if she saw the passionate love they once had in Mrs. Lin.
But now it has disappeared.
After Lin Changan left, Mrs. Lin was still holding on.
Faced with such a scene, Lin Meng didn't know how to comfort her. Perhaps for Mrs. Lin, venting the long-term depression would make her feel better.
After Mrs. Lin cried for a while, Lin Meng came forward to support her, and the mother and daughter hugged each other tightly.
Fortunately, the murderer has been found now, and I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Mom, don't worry, I will find the murderer and catch them all in one fell swoop."
Mrs. Lin nodded. She had already made a decision about the future of the Lin family.
After receiving the notice from Gu Changyan, Lin Meng agreed to let Chen Jiang take the lead in arresting people.
As the head of the Lin family, Mrs. Lin naturally had to witness all of this.
When Xiao Wanxin still refused to give up, the appearance of Mrs. Lin dealt her a heavy blow.
Lin Meng accompanied Mrs. Lin to the back door and happened to see this scene.
Xiao Wanxin didn't expect that this reclusive woman was actually pretending on weekdays.
But for Mrs. Lin, this was what she should have done long ago as the mistress of the house.
It's just a pity for Mr. Lin that he was so blind as to fall in love with such a person.
And now her son and she are still unclear about each other. She has already lost her husband and cannot lose her son again!
Mrs. Lin saw Chen Jiang and nodded.
Seeing that Xiao Wanxin was still stubborn, Chen Jiang stretched out his hand and made a gesture.
"Second Madam, please."
After saying that, without waiting for her to react, he immediately ordered his men to control her.
Chen Jiang took Xiao Wanxin back to the government office to report to Gu Changyan. Seeing Xiao Wanxin's unwillingness, Gu Changyan said calmly, "You will suffer for your own sins."
Afterwards, Chen Jiang sent her to jail.
Coldness and darkness enveloped her world. Xiao Wanxin secretly left traces at the moment she was caught.
She also hoped that the man she loved would cross mountains and seas to save her.
Xiao Wanxin was taken into custody. During this busy night, Gu Changyan was already prepared to make a public verdict after the matter of the Lin family heir was concluded.
Mrs. Lin felt relieved when she saw Xiao Wanxin being taken away.
She no longer thought about anything else now, only tomorrow's events that put a heavy responsibility on her shoulders.
Lin Meng sent Xiaoyu to take good care of Mrs. Lin, while she herself prepared to go find Lin Ruohai.
When he reached the east courtyard, Lin Meng saw a figure wandering under the moon from afar.
That figure looks so lonely.
She secretly wrote a letter and put it in Lin Ruohai's room when he was not paying attention.
All the causes and consequences are clearly written in this letter.
Lin Meng couldn't imagine what Lin Ruohai would be like after knowing the truth, but everyone must be responsible for their own actions.
Lin Ruohai turned a blind eye and a deaf ear to all the earnest advice given. No one knows how he will face such an outcome.
Lin Meng was feeling depressed. The autumn wind was blowing, and she came to the backyard alone.
The Spiritual Lord Sword was ready to move, and Lin Meng held it tightly in his hands.
"Why, you've been stuck here for a long time and you want to move around!"
Lin Meng talked to himself in front of the Spiritual Sword, and then began to dance with the sword outside the pavilion.
The flashing of swords and the shadows of sabers made the night seem even more depressing.
She waved her wings as if intoxicated by them and feeling the loneliness of being alone.
In a trance, a handful of leaves flew from the sky and Lin Meng became alert.
She swung her sword and the leaves flew everywhere.
A sharp voice rang out in the night sky.
"who!"
I only heard the man laugh, and then he immediately flew down from the tree.
"It's you?"
The familiar figure appeared in front of her.
