Chapter 1669: Chapter 1669: Shattered Dreams
Hearing He Jing’s words, the Luo Family had no more concerns.
Afterwards, calls were made one after another, just waiting to see the results.
At the same time, Luo Xuyuan’s private lawyer also reported Li Qianqian’s matter directly, attaching all the evidence they had collected.
******
The He family thought that after returning, the Luo Family would start investigating these matters, but never expected that they had already gathered all the evidence before coming to acknowledge the kinship.
Yet, when the Li family came to inform them of the truth, they still did not pay attention to the two children.
They only wanted to fool the Luo Family at the time of acknowledgment, thinking that after building a good relationship, they could leverage the Luo Family’s connections to expand their business. Truly wishful thinking.
The next day, the police went to find Bao Xiaorui. This matter was closely monitored by Luo Feng under Lu Yichen’s orders, to get a quick outcome, as the evidence was already substantial, and only needed verification from the authorities.
The Bao Family was worried and quickly called the He family.
The He family did not expect the Luo Family to act so quickly, and through their connections, they learned that the other side had also provided relevant evidence, which made them panic as well.
If Bao Xiaorui was sentenced, then the He family would be guilty of harboring.
After all, they helped conceal the truth and handled quite a lot of evidence.
The He family made a round of calls but couldn’t find any useful information. The only clear thing was that the Luo Family was serious, not just talking.
They moved around, trying to find someone to help them, but the savvy ones wouldn’t tread in such murky waters.
So, the He family turned to the Li family, hoping to gather some information from them.
But the Li family didn’t give them any face, pretending to know nothing at all.
If it weren’t for the fact that the two families had been longstanding friends, the Li family would have wanted to kick the He family out, as they truly loved Li Qianqian.
After the incident, Li Qianqian’s adoptive mother, Di Wenying, almost followed suit, and it took a long time for her to recover her life, but she remained frail and sickly for years, having developed a chronic condition.
The reason why He Jing and He Yuan couldn’t feel the love from the Li family was that Di Wenying blamed Li Qianqian’s death on her two grandchildren, so every time the two children visited, she wouldn’t be too enthusiastic, keeping a serious demeanor.
She felt that if it weren’t for them, Li Qianqian wouldn’t have chosen to marry He Peng, and would not have ruined her own life, even paying with her life.
Furthermore, she instilled this resentment in every family member, forbidding them from getting close to He Jing and He Yuan.
If anyone dared to defy her, she would either refuse to eat or drink, or fall ill again. After several instances, everyone dared not treat the two children well anymore, fearing she would end up in another incident.
When the He family came to visit today, Di Wenying knew that the Luo Family had made a move. She couldn’t be happier and had no intention of providing them with any information.
Moreover, it’s not like the Luo Family would negotiate with them. The Luo Family probably also resent them for marrying their daughter into the He family.
After the He family left, Di Wenying hugged Li Qianqian’s photo and cried bitterly, only falling into a deep sleep under her husband’s comforting.
A few days later, public security officers took Bao Xiaorui from the hospital. Perhaps knowing she couldn’t escape her crimes, fearing the Luo Family would go after her son, during the re-interrogation, she confessed everything.
It might have been out of revenge, as it was He family’s interference that prevented Li Qianqian from divorcing He Peng all this time.
Until her pregnancy became visible, and she had no way out, leading her to take extreme actions on that day.
