Chapter 168 Betrayal
Shen Xiujie was also frightened at home, but surprisingly she did not receive the summons.
They have a small group where they chat about various things every day, but it has been surprisingly quiet these days. Shen Xiujie looked at the latest group messages, which were already 3 days ago. She was getting angry with Ruby, and she would definitely not be the first to show weakness. Others, seeing the awkward atmosphere, kept silent. They simply didn't make any noise in the past two days.
What Shen Xiujie didn't know was that outside the police station, Ruby walked out accompanied by a lawyer. She was not surprised to see Xia Cheng and She Liang. She looked around and didn't find what she wanted to see most. shadow.
Xia Cheng and Ruby were brought out by the Xia family's lawyer. They got in the car and drove directly to Xia Donglai's office.
"Now you all tell me honestly. Forget it, I don't even need to ask. It must be true. How much do you know about that boy's death and how much did you participate in it?"
Xia Man glanced at her cousin Xia Cheng and said nothing. She smoked something that night and hung out with cod, but she later heard others say that if Xia Cheng hadn't done that thing at that time, this might not have happened.
"I drank too much at the time. I didn't even know this kid." He insisted on what he said at the police station.
How much older is Xia Cheng than Xia Man and the others? He was indeed the one who administered the medicine, but he was sure that no one had any evidence. Besides, he wasn't the one who wanted to sleep with that girl, and he wasn't the one who forced the unlucky guy to go to the first place. not him. He sat there and didn't move the whole time.
"And Brother Dong, I can also testify to Xiao Man that she was not there at the time. It was just a few boys who were having fun and wanted those girls from the art school to accompany them."
Xia Donglai came over with a sharp look. As the current head of the Xia family, Xia Donglai graduated from a prestigious school and behaved himself in private life, but that didn't mean that he didn't understand the misfortunes of these bastards.
Xia Cheng quickly raised his hands and swore, "Brother, I swear, I didn't touch these girls. Really, I was an adult at that time. How could I fool around like these stupid kids?"
Xia Donglai understood the meaning. Children born in aristocratic families like them were all well-connected and could do whatever they wanted, but there were some things they would never do under the eyes of others.
For example, taking drugs or having an unclear relationship with a minor.
Ruby nodded aside, "Really, brother, I wasn't even there at the time."
Xia Donglai slowly put down the pen in his hand, "Then who are you with and what are you doing?"
Ruby had always wanted to be with Shen Xiujie, but she and Shen Xiujie had been at loggerheads recently, and she wasn't sure if Shen Xiujie would cover for her.
How could Xia Donglai not understand the meaning behind her hesitation at this moment, so he threw the cup in anger. His father retired early to recuperate due to poor health. He was the first and smoothest among the second generation to take over the family business, but now he understands why his father wanted to retire early. In addition to being busy with late-night business every day, there are also these prodigal sons who carelessly eat idle food and get into trouble.
"You were only 15 or 6 years old at that time, could you be more careful?"
"Brother, don't be angry. It's not what you think. At that time, Xia Man was in love with that boy from the Lin family."
Xia Donglai breathed a sigh of relief, "Lin family, Lin Shujie?" He was hung up again in one breath. The only person who could directly prove his alibi was dead.
"Anyway, you all should keep a low profile and don't say anything you shouldn't."
"Brother, there's no need to worry about this. You know who Ruby and the others listen to, right? The Shen family is still supporting it." Xia Cheng said confidently.
Xia Donglai glanced at him, "I heard from Lawyer Chen and others today that I didn't see the Shen family's lawyer at all today."
Ruby quickly looked at each other and Xia Cheng, indeed she had not seen Shen Xiujie at the police station before. Ruby, who had just returned to the Xia family, saw the Zhao family's car waiting outside the door. The Zhao family's daughter gently whispered into Ruby's ear: "The only person who was there at that time was Shen Xiujie who was not questioned." After saying that, he got in the car and drove away. Ruby was left standing there stunned. She didn't care about the falling out with Shen Xiujie before and took the initiative to call Shen Xiujie.
No one answered Shen Xiujie's call. Later, she called the Shen family and a servant of the Shen family picked up the call.
"Our lady is not at home."
The next day, several people went to the police station to assist in the investigation. Ruby observed carefully. Neither Shen Xiujie nor the Shen family's lawyer was present, and they could not contact Shen Xiujie.
