The Regent's Little Wife

Chapter 441 Li Mei's Spoiling

Just as Li Mei was intoxicated with her masterpiece, a familiar and shrill cry suddenly came from behind. Lu Wange stumbled forward, tears pouring down her cheeks, and she complained at the top of her lungs: "Mom, how could you treat my sister like this? How could you do such a thing? How can I survive in the Lu family, how can I face my adoptive parents, my eldest brother, my second brother, and my sister whose life or death is uncertain? Mom, how could you do this?"

Li Mei stood there in a daze, speechless at the accusation of her daughter. After a long while, she spoke with difficulty: "Wange, look at the current situation. Your brother is gone, and your sister is still in the hospital, her life or death uncertain. Now, I only have you. Can you help me, please? I know you are rich, and you have more than 20 companies under your name. Can you transfer more than a dozen of them to me? I will run them well like you."

Everyone present was shocked by Li Mei's words. She was still thinking about money at this time. Lu Wange originally thought that her mother would compromise for her. As long as she gave in a little, she would find a way to rescue her. However, Li Mei openly mentioned money in public.

Lu Wange didn't stop crying. She continued to beg, "Mom, don't force me anymore. Those companies belong to the Lu family, not mine. I send you more than 2000 million yuan in living expenses every month. Isn't that enough? Why do you still force me? Will you be satisfied only if you force me to death? I know that your brother's matter makes you very sad, but I gave you 500 million yuan a few days ago. Isn't that enough? What else do you want me to do? Do you want me to give you my life as well?"

After Lu Wange finished saying this, she fainted on the ground. Lu Zhiyao, who was standing by, watched all this coldly, secretly mocking herself in her heart: Lu Wange is really a master of acting, she can even act fainting so realistically.

At this time, the second son, Lu Jingxing, quickly stepped forward and hugged the unconscious Lu Wange tightly in his arms. He glared at Lu Wange's parents fiercely, his tone full of threats: "Listen, you two old guys, if Ge'er is hurt in any way, I will never let you go. It turns out that you are the beasts who stole my sister back then. I tell you, our Lu family will never let you go, you better wait and see." After saying that, he carried Lu Wange to the second floor without hesitation.

Meanwhile, Li Mei was still yelling, "Why are you pretending? You fainted after a few words. As my daughter, you don't provide me with support and living expenses. This is unfilial. I didn't say anything wrong."

At this moment, Li Mei's husband Yang Xiong finally couldn't stand it anymore. He grabbed Li Mei who was throwing a tantrum and shouted angrily: "Enough! Look where we are? This is the Lu family! Your daughter has been scared to unconsciousness by you, can you shut your stinky mouth!"

However, Li Mei completely ignored her husband's advice. Instead of restraining her behavior, she once again directed her anger at Lu Zhiyao who was standing beside her. A cold smile appeared on her lips, and she said viciously: "Bitch... What qualifications do you have to live in this world? How dare you return to the Lu family? If it weren't for you returning to the Lu family, these bad things would never have happened! I still remember clearly that your biological mother didn't like you at all, and she said that you were a nemesis... You really are a nemesis!"

"It's because of you that I went back to the Lu family that my daughter won't give me money now, my little daughter went to the hospital, and my son died! You evil bastard, I'm going to beat you to death today!" Li Mei became more and more excited, waving her fists and rushing towards Lu Zhiyao, looking like she wanted to fight to the death. Seeing this, Yang Xiong hurriedly hugged Li Mei tightly to prevent her from really hurting Lu Zhiyao.

Lu Zhiyao looked at Li Mei as if she were an idiot, thinking to herself: Is this family all crazy? Does your son's death have anything to do with me?

Lu Yucheng witnessed Li Mei's madness and felt helpless. He didn't want to get involved with such unreasonable people, and originally planned to negotiate with Li Mei's parents with money as the medium. However, Li Mei's behavior was really unbearable, and what shocked him even more was that she was the murderer who stole the child more than 20 years ago. This is simply walking into a trap. If there is a way to heaven, don't take it, and there is no door to hell.

Lu Yucheng took a deep breath and instructed the housekeeper, "Go tell Officer Bai to hand this couple over to him." After that, he turned and left the living room, leaving Li Mei sitting on the floor and acting like a spoiled child.

"Oh, why am I so miserable? My daughter bullies me, and my daughter's adoptive father and his whole family also bully me. Is there any reason for this?" Li Mei cried loudly, and Yang Xiong tried to help her up, but to no avail. They originally planned to make a scene so that their daughter could get some money, but they didn't expect things to turn out like this.

Less than half an hour later, the sirens of police cars sounded outside the door. A police officer who called himself Bai Qi walked into the living room and waved his hand to signal his men to take the two away.

Li Mei wanted to continue to act like a spoiled child, but Officer Bai said with a smile: "Ms. Li Mei, I am Bai Qi, the leader of the Nancheng Special Case Team. We suspect that you are related to the missing baby case and the drowning case of a 20-year-old woman more than 25 years ago. Please come with us. You have the right to remain silent, but what you say will be used as evidence in court." Bai Qi didn't want to waste any more time talking to Li Mei, and directly ordered his men to take the two away.

He walked up to the housekeeper Lu Chen and nodded: "I have watched the surveillance video. They admitted what happened 20 years ago, and the woman who drowned in the reservoir was their sister. These are all valid evidence. The case that has lasted for more than 20 years can finally be solved. Please apologize to the head of the Lu family. After the matter is settled, I will come to his house in person to apologize." After that, he bowed and left the Lu family.

Lu Zhiyao watched Bai Qi leave, and couldn't help but sigh at the officer's decisiveness and wisdom. In this world, justice may be late, but it will never be absent. He.

Officer Bai is the soul of the special case team. Whenever a murder occurs, he can always bring the criminal to justice with his sharp eyes and extraordinary wisdom. However, the murder case at the reservoir more than 20 years ago has always troubled him like an invisible shackle. Although the forensic doctor determined that it was a homicide, the murderer seemed to have disappeared and has never been brought to justice.

Time flies, more than 20 years have passed, and Officer Bai has grown from a high-spirited new officer to a mature man in his 40s. At this time, the reservoir murder case that had been silent for many years had a breakthrough. Upon hearing the news, Officer Bai was undoubtedly filled with mixed feelings, with both his adherence to justice and his regrets about the past years.

It is said that Officer Bai personally handled both cases. In order to find the missing girl, he stayed up for seven days and seven nights. Although he failed to find the girl, he never gave up. Lu Zhiyao was able to return to the Lu family thanks to Officer Bai's help. Therefore, she was full of gratitude and respect for Officer Bai.

Just when Lu Zhiyao was about to return to the second floor, the system suddenly sounded an urgent task reminder. She couldn't help but frown, wondering why there were always side quests? But when she heard the content of the task, she fell into deep thought. It turned out that this side quest was related to Officer Bai's son.
