Chapter 1537 - 1526: Revenge for My Sister

Chapter 1537: Chapter 1526: Revenge for My Sister

Li Zihui dared not return home to tell her elder brother and sister-in-law the truth. Li Zhihua still believed she was about to be cleared of her reputation. She had already prepared for her comeback and contacted a design school abroad, intending to go overseas and polish her skills before developing her career globally.

After some years, people would gradually forget these matters. With the power of her family and support from her fiancé, the Wang Family, she was confident she could rise again.

Li Zhihua’s imagination was beautiful. Had Zhan Hui not exposed those pieces of evidence, her future would have been bright. But she had committed murder, and although the police had no evidence earlier and Zhan Hui did not pursue the matter, thus closing the case hastily, now that it was known to be intentional homicide, even the Li family, with all its power, could not obstruct the police investigation.

In the evening, a group of police officers forcefully knocked on the Li family’s door. The nanny went to open it and was startled by the severe expressions of the officers.

"May I ask what the matter is?"

"Is Li Zhihua home?" the leading officer asked sternly.

"She is, you all..."

Before the nanny could finish her sentence, the police had already stormed in. They were here to arrest someone, not for small talk, so pleasantries were unnecessary.

"Li Zhihua, you are suspected of murdering Ms. Zhan Yao two years ago. The police now arrest you according to the law, please do not resist." As soon as the lead officer finished speaking, before the Li family could react, two officers quickly approached Li Zhihua and handcuffed her.

"What are you doing? Release my daughter!" Mrs. Li shouted loudly as she rushed forward, even physically attacking the police and scratching the face of an officer capturing Li Zhihua.

"Ma’am, we are lawfully arresting a suspect, please do not obstruct our duty," the leading officer sternly pulled her away.

Mrs. Li had relied on her family’s wealth and developed arrogance over the years. When she went out on business, everyone fawned over her, so she did not regard these officers and loudly made a scene, attacking the captain again.

"Ma’am, you are suspected of obstructing justice, I now warn you to cooperate with our actions immediately." The officer warned, tense and serious.

However, for Mrs. Li to take this seriously would be strange; she continued to shout and make a scene: "On what grounds are you arresting my daughter? Nanny Sun, are you deaf? Hurry and come to help!"

The police chief, seeing the warning was ineffective, and realizing she wanted help to obstruct official work, no longer tolerated it. With a reverse grip, he restrained her, and like her daughter, handcuffed her.

"Ma’am, you have not only obstructed justice but also attacked police. I now lawfully arrest you. If you have questions, contact your family to hire a lawyer." After speaking, the chief snorted coldly, "Back to the police station for questioning."

Nanny Sun, seeing the household’s lady and the young lady both taken away, took a moment to come to her senses before calling the home’s male master.

"Yes, the police said they arrested the eldest lady on suspicion of murder, and said madam obstructed justice and assaulted police, so she was taken as well." Nanny Sun said in a panicked manner, and after finishing, only heard a low curse before the phone was hung up.

After making the call, Nanny Sun began to reflect on today’s events. Always seeing other wealthy families in the villa area with various bizarre incidents, she thought her employer’s family was the most normal one. Unexpectedly, they secretly did so much - it was murder!

Satisfying her native instinct to watch drama, Nanny Sun immediately opened the nanny group chat for the villa area she worked in and exaggeratedly spread the recently occurred events.

Within just an evening, news of Li Zhihua’s arrest for murder and Li Lady’s arrest for assaulting police had spread throughout the entire upper-class circle of A City.

Other families learned of this, and naturally, the Wang family closest to the Li family did too. Unwilling to believe the truth of the matter, they hurriedly called but received no answer, instantly feeling a sinking sensation.

Mrs. Wang called her son, asking if he knew about the things Li Zhihua had done. After hearing, Wang Chengyang had a bad premonition.

He knew Li Zhihua was the murderer of Zhan Yao, but aided her in handling aftermath events. If Li Zhihua was the principal offender, he too was an accessory. ℯℯ𝑙.

Before Mrs. Wang hung up the phone, Wang Chengyang’s apartment door was knocked on, and outside came the voice of the police.

"Police? Why would the police be looking for you?" Mrs. Wang panicked, quickly asking, "Is it because of Li Zhihua’s matter, did the police come to ask for your assistance in investigation?"

Wang Chengyang said with a trembling voice: "Mom, please hire me a lawyer."

What else did Mrs. Wang not understand? Shocked as if struck by lightning, why was her son also involved with the case? What exactly happened?

When police presented evidence to Li Zhihua regarding her murder, saying if there were accomplices, revealing them could lessen her sentence, overwhelmed by panic, she revealed Wang Chengyang.

The incident that day was actually simple. After Zhan Yao was scolded by Zhan Hui for refusing to heed the Li family’s demands, Li Zhihua had invited Zhan Yao to a deserted rooftop that evening, intending to talk.

Wang Chengyang was also there, originally wanting to play the emotional card to persuade Zhan Yao not to fuss. Unexpectedly, because he was present, Zhan Yao became more agitated and said she would not let either of them off and must let others know their true faces.

During the argument, being outnumbered, Zhan Yao was forced to the edge by both of them. Wang Chengyang intended only to threaten by saying Zhan Yao had been raised and supplied by the Li family shouldn’t be ungrateful, but she was insistent on exposing the truth.

Li Zhihua, for the sake of her image and reputation, pushed Zhan Yao in a fit of anger, leading to Zhan Yao’s fatal fall.

Actually, neither intended for Zhan Yao to die, but due to standing in the wrong position at the time, they panicked afterward, with Wang Chengyang even suggesting to report it to the police.

But thinking she was the one who pushed, Li Zhihua stopped him, threatening him not to disclose the matter as he was also involved, having cornered Zhan Yao with her.

Afterward, Li Zhihua dared not tell her parents of the incident, so she called her beloved aunt, Li Zihui. Upon learning Zhan Yao died because of Li Zhihua, Li Zihui was also very shocked.

But the niece claimed it was unintentional, she couldn’t let her niece go to jail. Initially wanting to persuade her husband to resolve the case quickly, her husband suggested letting the police investigate first, leaving her no choice but to honestly report it to Zhan Hui, offering threats and promises which benefited him greatly, prompting Zhan Hui to hastily resolve the case.

No one knew Zhan Hui, regarding his daughter’s death, kept a careful eye and preserved the video and recording of Li Zihui and Li Zhihua discussing the matter with him, as these now served as evidence to sentence Li Zhihua and Wang Chengyang.
