The trio first met with Lin Cheng and Lin Hun but had little time to explain. Gu Zi and Mrs. Lin proceeded to the Public Security Bureau while Li Hua and the two men returned to the village.
Before the mother and daughter could enter the police station, they encountered a middle-aged man who warmly greeted Gu Zi.
“Little Zi, here for business? Why aren’t you with Su Shen?” he inquired.
Gu Zi recognized the familiar Mediterranean-style haircut and recalled he was the male leader who had assisted in teaching Aunte Wang a lesson last time. She had heard people referring to him as Deputy Chief He.
“Yes, Deputy Chief He, I’m here for some business!” she replied with a smile.
Deputy Chief He thought Su Shen’s wife was very polite and smart but felt she was overly courteous.
He expressed, “Given my relationship with Su Shen, you should call me Uncle.
If Uncle has met you here for something, there’s no reason I shouldn’t help. What brings you here?”
Declaring he had no plans to go out, Deputy Chief He personally escorted Gu Zi and Mrs. Lin into the Public Security Bureau.
Gu Zi couldn’t refuse his offer. With his support, tasks became notably more convenient. Also, considering Su Shen’s rapport with him, addressing him as Uncle He didn’t seem out of place.
Following Uncle He’s lead, Gu Zi and her mother entered the bureau.
Mrs. Lin was quietly amazed. She hadn’t anticipated her future son-in-law’s influence—having an acquaintance who was not only within the Public Security Bureau but also held the position of deputy director!
She realized the saying that having more connections makes tasks easier held true.
Deputy Director He arranged for them to sit in a specific department downstairs, where someone promptly served them tea and snacks.
Gu Zi felt their visit to the Public Security Bureau seemed less like reporting a case and more akin to being entertained at a teahouse. It was all too comfortable.
Of course, Deputy Chief He couldn’t just let them sit there and do nothing. He quickly called the person in charge of investigating the Lin family’s dowry gift money theft case.
Gu Zi and Mother Lin provided details about Lin Miao’s unusual behavior. Mrs. Lin collaborated, adding further explanations, while the investigator earnestly took notes.
“Miss Gu,” he said respectfully, “the clue you provided is very important. We will investigate in this direction.”
Gu Zi expressed her gratitude and continued, “Regarding the follow-up investigation, I have some ideas that I’d like to discuss with you privately.”
Downstairs in the pavilion of the military compound, the Gu and Gong families had arranged to meet before proceeding to the Golden Sun Hotel for lunch. Their agenda was to discuss Lin Miao and Gong Zhan’s marriage certificate and wedding-related matters.
Upon seeing the Gong couple, the Gu couple extended profuse thanks. “Chief, Madam Chen, we’re immensely grateful for your help with the household register transfer. Lin Miao, you should also express your gratitude to the elders!”
Gong Zhan stood silently to the side, offering no words. The Gong couple appeared puzzled.
Confused, they glanced at their son, wondering when they had aided in the transfer. The Gu family hadn’t mentioned anything about it.
Lin Miao had already bowed in gratitude, expressing, “Thank you so much. I thought I’d never be able to return to the Gu family’s household register in this lifetime. I didn’t expect your assistance.”
This time, she wasn’t lying. After all, she had transferred her rural household registration to a city household registration. She didn’t have to be a farmer anymore!
As they spoke, the group had already walked out of the courtyard. However, they encountered Lin Cheng and Li Hua waiting outside the door.
They were supposed to go back, but after parting ways with Gu Zi and the others, Lin Cheng asked Li Hua why she wanted to go to the Public Security Bureau.
Li Hua felt that there was nothing to hide, so she told Lin Cheng about Lin Miao’s previous lies.
Everyone had seen how Lin Cheng had loved Lin Miao since he was young, even Lin Hun had always called him a sister slave.
Lin Cheng couldn’t help but cry when he heard this. Even Lin Hun was stunned by Lin Miao’s shamelessness.
Unable to believe Lin Miao’s actions, Lin Cheng insisted on confronting Lin Miao about her accusations against the Lin family regarding Su Shen’s 3,000 yuan dowry. Li Hua accompanied him.
Lin Miao felt an inexplicable unease upon seeing the pair. She tried to ignore them, but Lin Cheng halted her and asked in a quivering voice, “Sister Lin Miao, why did you accuse the Lin family of taking Su Shen’s 3,000 yuan wedding gift?”
Lin Miao’s body trembled, feigning ignorance. “Brother, what… what are you talking about?”
Gu Shan and Zhang Mei swiftly shielded their daughter, scolding the pair, “This is the city. Why are you causing a scene? How could Lin Miao falsely accuse you? Don’t create unnecessary trouble!”
The Gong family remained silent, considering it a personal issue that needed resolution between the parties involved..
