Chapter 904: Aunt Ping’s Been Arrested
When Aunt Ping heard what Ning Shu said, she trembled in shock. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to do it. I didn’t mean to!”
She kept apologizing nonstop, but she refused to reveal why she did it.
So Ning Shu called the police and they soon arrived. Ning Shu informed them of what happened and Aunt Ping was arrested. However, even at this point, Aunt Ping still refused to confess.
After what happened with Aunt Ping, Mother Miao became suspicious of and on guard against the other servants. She didn’t allow these servants to get close to the kitchen anymore and started to handle even buying groceries personally.
Ning Shu took out the pieces of evidence she had previously kept at the bank and handed them to Father Miao. “Dad, I want to get divorced with Zhang Jiasen, but we can’t let him off so easily. This incident with Aunt Ping definitely has something to do with him. There’s also the issue of the designs being stolen.
When Father Miao saw these pieces of evidence, and especially after he saw what was in the USB, his face turned purple with anger. Ning Shu hastily rubbed his back to help him breathe. “Dad, don’t be angry anymore. At the very least, we’ve already discovered him.”
“White-eyed wolf that just can’t be satisfied,” growled Father Miao angrily. His brows were furrowed sternly. For better or for worse, Father Miao was also someone who had climbed to his current position step by step. It only took a little bit of consideration for Father Miao to figure out what Zhang Jiasen had been planning.
Ning Shu already had a plan. If she directly brought up divorce, Zhang Jiasen would probably bring up dividing their assets and she couldn’t allow that. Her goal was to make sure that Zhang Jiasen lost everything and would never be able to reverse his situation in this lifetime.
A grand mansion, success, and a respectable status. Zhang Jiasen didn’t have any of these, so he was working hard to obtain them. However, she would make each of these things forever out of his reach.
“Divorce, you two must get divorced!” Mother Miao slapped the table. “We can’t let things go like this.”
“Mom, I know. Don’t worry,” said Ning Shu calmly.
She went to the police station to see Aunt Ping. If she could get an oral confession from Aunt Ping that pointed to Zhang Jiasen, then not only would Zhang Jiasen be guilty of the crime of embezzling, he would also be guilty of incitement.
Ning Shu dared to use Miao Miaomiao’s head to bet that this incident was definitely related to Zhang Jiasen.
When she got to the police station, she ended up encountering Zhang Jiasen. What did he come to the police station for?
Ning Shu walked towards him and asked, “Why are you here?”
Zhang Jiasen’s gaze was very gentle as he looked towards Ning Shu. “I’m here to check on Brother-in-law.”
“Haa…” Zhang Jiasen didn’t know what to say, so he just sighed and rubbed his forehead. Then he said, “No matter what, we have to teach Brother-in-law a bit of a lesson this time, otherwise he’ll cause even worse of mess next time.”
Ning Shu declined to comment. Could it be that this wasn’t a big mess? That stealing designs doesn’t count as a big issue?
Tan Heyu was clearly bad to the core.
Zhang Jiasen then asked Ning Shu, “Why are you here?”
Ning Shu replied mildly, “Aunt Ping added poison to Dad’s medicinal dish, so she’s been arrested.”
Zhang Jiasen’s pupils dilated and he seemed quite shocked. “Poison? No way, right?”
Ning Shu’s gaze swept across Zhang Jiasen’s face. There was only shock and confusion on his face. There was no trace of him being flustered.
“We’ll find out sooner or later why she did this,” replied Ning Shu as she walked past Zhang Jiasen to head inside.
Zhang Jiasen turned around to follow after Ning Shu. “Miaomiao, I’ll go with you.”
“No need, and only one visitor’s allowed.” Ning Shu walked faster to leave.
Zhang Jiasen’s gaze was slightly strange as he stared after this woman’s back. He pressed his lips together, then loosened his collar a little.
Ning Shu walked into the police station and looked through the barred window at Aunt Ping who was in prison garbs. Not much time had passed, but Aunt Ping looked much older. She was no longer a capable and experienced servant of the Miao family. Her expression was panicked and filled with despair.
