30: False accusation is self-inflicted
Jiang Jun continued, "I was at the pier yesterday afternoon, at Yiyi Logistics Company. Everyone there can testify." He then looked at the policeman. "If you don't believe me, feel free to ask around or check the surveillance footage."
The policeman had no other choice but to have his subordinate make a call to verify the statement.
In the end, it turned out to be true; there were witnesses for everything.
At that moment, Jiang Li arrived with the police and a lawyer.
Seeing her, Jiang Jun stood up to greet his daughter. "Lili, why are you here?"
"Dad, I'm here to help you!"
After saying this, Jiang Li looked at Jiang Ruian. In her previous life, he was the one who framed her father and was the main culprit behind her family's downfall.
Even though she had found a lawyer back then, it had been to no avail.
The reason for that was because both the lawyer and the policeman were Jiang Ruian's people.
In this life, she would not repeat the same mistake.
A policeman stepped forward and approached Li Hongwen, the officer standing beside Jiang Ruian.
"You have carried out an unauthorized police action and are suspected of framing an innocent citizen. You are now under arrest."
Hearing this, Li Hongwen barked, "What do you think you're doing? I outrank you! Do you dare arrest me?"
Hearing Li Hongwen's words, Gu Ci immediately retorted, "Heh, I really do dare!"
What was there for him to be afraid of? He had only joined the force to experience life; at worst, he would just go back home and inherit the family fortune!
"So, just sit tight! Put on these silver bracelets and let's go!"
Gu Ci directly hauled the swearing Li Hongwen away. As he passed Jiang Li, he said, "Miss Jiang, could I trouble your lawyer to come to the station to provide a statement?"
"Of course."
After responding to Gu Ci, Jiang Li turned to Lin Mo behind her. "Lin Mo, I'll have to trouble you to make a trip there."
Then, she whispered to Lin Mo, "Ideally, don't let him out."
Lin Mo heard Miss Jiang's words. Although he didn't know why she detested this person so much, since Miss Jiang was a good person, then this man must certainly be a bad one.
"Very well, Miss Jiang."
Lin Mo then left with his secretary, Wen Xia.
Lin Mo went to the police station alone, while he sent Wen Xia to investigate the backgrounds of Li Hongwen and Jiang Ruian.
Only Jiang Li and Jiang Jun were left in the office.
"Lili, why did you bring the police and a lawyer?" Jiang Jun only found out when they arrived, but he wondered how Lili knew about this.
Jiang Li knew she couldn't speak about her rebirth, so she had to make up a lie.
"When I went out last night, I overheard some people plotting this on my way back. So, I brought people here this morning."
"So that's how it was! Next time something like this happens, tell Dad. I'll handle it." Jiang Jun remembered that Lili had gone out last night and returned quite late.
This morning, she had left even earlier than he did.
"Last night, I prepared the company transfer contract. Once the signing is done today, I'll take you out for a meal."
"Okay. Oh, by the way, Dad, I ordered a car for you last night. It's arriving today, so remember to drive it."
"Alright, I'll remember. Drive slowly on your way back. I'll pick you up at noon."
"OK, Dad."
After that, Jiang Li left.
The Maybach S680 ordered last night was also delivered to the Youjie Transport Fleet.
Jiang Jun received a call and went downstairs to receive the car.
"Hello, are you Mr. Jiang Jun?"
"Yes."
"Mr. Jiang, this is the Maybach S680 your daughter ordered last night. Here are the keys."
"Alright, thank you for your trouble."
"It's no trouble at all."
The delivery person then left.
Jiang Jun looked at the car, unable to take his hands off it.
Employees coming in for work saw the car parked at the entrance. "Boss, did you win the lottery? Buying such an expensive car?"
Jiang Jun replied with a face full of smiles, "What are you talking about? My daughter bought this to show her filial piety. She recently opened a company in Shanghai, so here we are!"
The people around him were filled with envy.
They wanted a daughter like that too.
By noon, Jiang Jun had successfully transferred the fleet. Although the people in the fleet were a bit reluctant, they quickly got into the swing of things.
To be honest, most of them found work on their own anyway.
A change of boss didn't make a huge difference.
Jiang Jun drove his car home to pick up his wife. It turned out their daughter had gone out again; after a phone call, they learned she was busy preparing for the house renovation. So, it ended up being a date for the parents.
In the afternoon, the two of them went to Yiyi Logistics Company together.
They spent the entire afternoon familiarizing themselves with the company's processes to ensure they could take over quickly... At the police station, the investigation into Jiang Ruian and Li Hongwen concluded that Jiang Ruian had staged the entire incident and had even been involved in transporting illegal goods.
As for Li Hongwen, he had accepted bribes from Jiang Ruian and provided him with many conveniences.
With Lin Mo's assistance, the prison sentences for the two of them were significantly increased.
This was a classic case of reaping what one sows.
Jiang Ruian's parents and wife went to Jiang Jun's house every day to cause trouble.
At first, the two of them were at the company learning the business and didn't run into them, but when they returned in the evening, they were met by a crowd of people surrounding them.
They were saying things like they were all from the same village, yet he was being so cruel.
"Jiang Jun, I'm your uncle after all. How could you do this to Ruian? How is our family supposed to survive!"
Jiang Ruian's parents were there, trying to guilt-trip him.
"Exactly, Jiang Jun! You share the same ancestors, are you really going to harm your own kin now!"
Listening to their words, Jiang Jun wasn't about to play the saint.
"So your son, Jiang Ruian, slanders me, and I'm just supposed to forgive him? If the police hadn't finally uncovered the truth, I'd be in prison right now!"
"Also, don't forget, if I hadn't been busy that day and had gone out with the truck, the brakes on the truck that went out were sabotaged. That driver's legs are paralyzed now!"
Jiang Ruian's parents had absolutely no idea about such things. Even if it was slander, how could their son do something that would lead to someone's death!
In the end, Jiang Jun and Su Wan went upstairs, leaving those people downstairs and ignoring them completely.
Although they had become the talk of the neighborhood, they wouldn't be living here much longer anyway.
This place was going to be rented out as well.
"Dad, Mom, you're back! Come and eat." Jiang Nan heard the door and knew Father Jiang and Mother Jiang had returned.
Father Jiang and Mother Jiang changed their shoes. Looking at the food on the dining table, one sniff was enough to know it was made by their precious daughter.
"Dad, Mom, Big Sister made so much food, it smells amazing."
Mother Jiang looked at Jiang Nan's greedy expression. "You, a boy and so greedy, why didn't you go help your sister?"
Jiang Nan liked his big sister best now, after all, she would buy him game consoles, sneakers, and such.
Hearing his mother's words, he immediately said, "Mom, I've been helping the whole time, okay!"
Jiang Jun looked at the dishes, took a sniff, and said, "It smells so good! Lili's cooking is really excellent."
