The police officers in the courtyard all looked up at her.

She was caught off guard by the sight of so many police uniforms and was instantly stunned.

"You are, Miss Qin Sisi?" The lead policeman seemed to recognize her, and after looking her over a few times, he guessed her identity.

Her heart skipped a beat, and her face instantly turned pale.

"Miss Qin Sisi." The policeman walked towards her, his face stern, as if he wanted to ask her something. But Qin Sisi was so frightened that she turned around and ran back to the living room in a panic.

"..." The policeman stood there, stunned.

"It's over, it's over!"

Qin Sisi was so flustered that she didn't even bother to change her slippers before rushing upstairs.

Ding Fenglian was coming downstairs when she almost bumped into Qin Sisi.

"Sisi?" She grabbed Qin Sisi's arm, interrupting her headlong rush. "Why are you running? Who's downstairs?"

"...The police are here!!" Qin Sisi gritted her teeth, saying anxiously and fearfully, "A group of police officers came to the courtyard. They recognized me as soon as they saw me, and they are most likely here to see me!"

"Mom, hurry downstairs and keep them calm. Don't let them find me! I don't want to go to the police station, I don't want to go to court, and I definitely don't want to go to jail!"

"What?" Ding Fenglian was frightened by what she said. "You mean, those police officers came looking for you?"

"Yes!" Qin Sisi stamped her feet anxiously. "I didn't reply to the indictment notice Pei Xingzhi sent, so these police officers are very likely hired by Pei Xingzhi! They're going to arrest me and take me to the police station!"

"Mom, I can't go to the police station, you have to save me!"

The words "Public Security Bureau" were too frightening. Seeing Qin Sisi's extreme panic, Ding Fenglian couldn't help but panic along with her.

“…Okay!” She grabbed Qin Sisi’s hand, completely ready to go all out.

"Mom will save you! Mom will hold them off for you. Hurry up and go call your dad and brother, and ask them to find a way to help you!"

Qin Sisi: "Okay, thank you, Mom!"

After saying that, she hurriedly ran upstairs.

Ding Fenglian took a few deep breaths and, trying to appear calm, slowly walked down the stairs.

The police arrived in the living room just then.

"Who are you looking for?" Ding Fenglian asked haughtily, putting on airs.

The lead policeman replied expressionlessly, "Hello, we are from the Yuncheng City Public Security Bureau. We've come here unexpectedly because we need to speak with Mr. Qin Feihong."

"President Qin..." Ding Fenglian paused, "Are you only looking for President Qin?"

The police officer nodded: "Yes, we are only looking for Mr. Qin right now."

"Oh..." Ding Fenglian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "That's unfortunate, President Qin hasn't returned from the company yet."

Police officer: "It's already afternoon. When will Mr. Qin be back?"

"I don't know." Ding Fenglian raised her hand to tidy her hair. "His off-get off work time is never fixed. If he's not busy, he can come back earlier, but if he's busy, he'll come back very late."

"Why don't you come back tomorrow? Or you can go directly to the company to find him."

"No need for that trouble." The police officer smiled politely. "If I'm not mistaken, you are Mr. Qin's wife, Ms. Ding Fenglian, right?"

Ding Fenglian: "...Yes."

Police officer: "It doesn't matter that Mr. Qin is not at home. Asking you about these things is the same as asking Mr. Qin Wushuang's mother."

"...Wushuang?" Upon hearing this name, Ding Fenglian's expression changed instantly.

She eyed the police officers in front of her warily and asked tentatively, "You're here today because of Wushuang?"

Police officer: "Yes, we came here because of Mr. Qin Wushuang."

"What happened to Wushuang?"

Qin Feihong's voice suddenly rang out in the courtyard.

The police officer in the living room turned around upon hearing the sound and greeted Qin Feihong very politely.

"President Qin, you're back."

"Hmm." Qin Feihong looked them over, his slightly weary face showing a gloomy caution.

"Are you from the Yuncheng City Public Security Bureau?" He walked slowly into the living room with his hands behind his back. "Which branch are you from? Who is the captain?"

The lead policeman smiled and replied, "Mr. Qin, we are police officers from the Criminal Investigation Division of the Yuncheng City Public Security Bureau. Our captain's surname is Li."

"Li?" Qin Feihong took off his coat and tossed it to Ding Fenglian as if it were the most natural thing in the world. He frowned and thought for a moment. "Li Fei?"

Police officer: "Yes. The case of Xie Zhaoyuan's disappearance is under the jurisdiction of our Captain Li. There are some things that Captain Li doesn't quite understand, so he specifically ordered us to come and verify with President Qin."

"Hmph," Qin Feihong sneered, feigning ignorance, "What does Xie Zhaoyuan's disappearance have to do with our Qin family? Why are you coming to me to verify this? What obligation do I have to cooperate with you?"

"..." The police officer didn't explain much, but simply took a document out of his briefcase and handed it to Qin Feihong.

Qin Feihong stared intently, and his expression instantly changed.

"After verification by the special investigation team, it has been confirmed that President Qin's son, Qin Wushuang, is inextricably linked to the disappearance of Xie Zhaoyuan. President Qin, we ask for your cooperation."

"..." Qin Feihong's face darkened, and his previous arrogance had completely disappeared.

The police officer raised a hand, making a seemingly polite but actually forceful "please" gesture to Qin Feihong.

"Mr. Qin, please."

Qin Feihong glared at the policeman with displeasure, then reluctantly turned and went upstairs.

"Come with me, let's talk in the study."

Police officer: "Okay."

Five or six policemen in uniform followed Qin Feihong upstairs. Ding Fenglian was left alone downstairs, frantic with worry.

Three hours later, the police officers finally came out of the study.

"Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Qin. Please stay in Yuncheng during this time and do not leave without permission until Mr. Qin Wushuang's suspicion has been cleared."

"..."

Qin Feihong's face was deathly pale, and he remained silent.

The police officer didn't seem to mind and remained smiling: "It's getting late, so we'll be leaving now. Goodbye, Mr. Qin."

After saying that, he led the other police officers away from the Qin family.

"Old Qin, what exactly happened?" Ding Fenglian, arm in arm with Qin Sisi, rushed to Qin Feihong and asked anxiously, "Old Qin, could Xie Zhaoyuan's disappearance really be related to Wushuang?"

Qin Sisi: "Dad, why won't they let you leave Yuncheng? What exactly did my older brother do wrong?"

One question after another bombarded Qin Feihong, who impatiently closed his eyes and didn't answer a single one.

"Call Wushuang! Call Wushuang right now!"

"Huh?" Ding Fenglian was stunned. "Should we...should we start right now?"

"Attack!!" Qin Feihong raised his voice, suddenly shouting at the top of his lungs, "Attack now, attack immediately! Hurry!!"

“…Oh, I’ll call right now.” Ding Fenglian quickly took out her phone from her pocket, found Qin Wushuang’s number, and dialed it.
