But Sun Gongda wasn’t around at this moment, and Sun Rui had been arrested, so it was impossible for Sun Qionghua to ignore it. She hurriedly got out of bed. Without even changing out of her pajamas, she grabbed her coat and left.

“Qionghua!” Fu Zhongli was woken up. Seeing her anxious expression, he hurriedly chased after her to find out why.

“Don’t worry about it. I’ll go to the police station to see what’s going on.” Sun Qionghua knew that Fu Zhongli didn’t like to interfere in the Sun family’s matters.

“I’ll send you there.” Fu Zhongli knew very well that it wasn’t easy to separate completely. Moreover, being caught for drugs was a very serious matter.

Their movements also woke up the entire Fu family. At this moment, apart from Fu Shinan, who was working in another city, Fu Sinian and Yu Manxi were also staying here. They all came out to check on the situation.

Although they had already gone out, the news of the Sun family being searched had already spread like wildfire.

***

When Fu Chen arrived at the old residence, the house was brightly lit. The police didn’t disclose Sun Rui’s matter to the public, but the media and those rich young masters and ladies had spread a lot of news to the outside world. Naturally, the Fu family had already heard the news.

When Yu Manxi thought about how the robbery attempt was deliberate and the robbers’ goal was to kill, she reached out to touch her stomach, and her back felt cold.

“Sinian, bring her back to your room to sleep first. It’s very late. It’s not good for pregnant women to stay up late.” Dai Yunqing was sitting on the sofa with her arms crossed, looking furious.

“Mom, don’t be angry. I’m fine. Besides, she’s been arrested.” Yu Manxi didn’t know how to comfort her, and she returned to her room after saying a few words.

After Fu Sinian and his wife left, Dai Yunqing still felt angry. “How presumptuous. She acted so lawlessly in broad daylight! She’s too arrogant!

“Dad, Mom.” Dai Yunqing looked at the two Fu elders. “I have to tell you in advance. If Second Sister-in-Law protects her maternal family this time, I won’t let this matter rest!

“Sun Rui is too spoiled. She treated Third Brother like that before, and now, she almost killed people. Nothing happened because Manxi and Wanwan were lucky and met a kind-hearted person. If anything had happened, could the Sun family afford to take responsibility?”

Old Madam Fu pinched the space between her eyebrows. “I understand.”

She hoped that Sun Qionghua could be clear-minded this time. If she protected her maternal family again, the Fu family would probably not be calm.

“I can’t sleep. I want to go to the police station to take a look.” Dai Yunqing walked out.

“Eldest Sister-in-Law, don’t go. It’s quite late, and there are many reporters over there. I’ll help you take a look, and I’ll tell you the news.” Fu Chen stopped her. With her current state of mind, if she went there and Sun Qionghua wanted to protect Sun Rui, there would definitely be a conflict.

“Let Third Son go. Zhongli is also there. The brothers know what to do.” Old Madam Fu could only sigh.

***

Fu Chen found someone and successfully entered the police station in a police car. Although it was already past one in the morning, the police cars outside were honking, and the reporters’ flashing lights had never stopped. The dark night magnified everything to be extremely chaotic.

At midnight…

A clap of thunder exploded in the entire country. Public opinion surged like a torrential storm of beasts.

Sun Rui was suspected of hiring people to commit murder, and the results of the urine test were not out yet. But the evidence of drug possession was conclusive. Even though she denied it in every way possible, she still panicked when faced with solid evidence.

Although Sun Qionghua and the others arrived early, they didn’t see her. It wasn’t until four in the morning and after contacting many people that they finally saw Sun Rui.

“Second Master, it’s all arranged.” Fu Zhongli had found this person. “Your wife can only enter for fifteen minutes. You can see her now. Please hurry up.”

“Thank you.” Fu Zhongli thanked him.

“Thank you.” Sun Qionghua had already understood everything that had happened at the police station. She could clearly feel her blood turning cold.

“You’re welcome. Time is tight. Go quickly.”

Fu Chen followed the two people to an interrogation room. There were still people guarding outside. The police officers in charge of investigating the case were mostly dragged out of their beds. After staying up all night, their eyes were bloodshot.

When they saw the Fu family members coming over, their eyes inevitably became strange.

“F*ck, is the Fu family going to protect Sun Rui?”

“Sigh, who knows. If the Fu family says something, they might give Old Master Fu face and really push all the blame onto others.”

“That’s too disappointing. We’ve been busy all night, but we were busy for nothing?”

…

Old Master Fu could be said to be the idol of several generations. He had devised strategies and won honor for the country many times during the founding of the country.

In everyone’s hearts, the Fu family had always been the representative of a just and noble family. If the family was dirty, it would really be disappointing.

If the upper echelons were rotten, it was useless to have hot blood.

At the door, Fu Zhongli and Fu Chen didn’t enter. “Go by yourself.”

Fu Zhongli’s mood was also complicated at this moment because what Sun Qionghua was going to do next might involve many things.

Once people questioned the Fu family for covering up for the Sun family, the first to be affected would be his father and eldest brother, who was still in politics. Fu Zhongli would have to make a choice.

“Thank you.” Sun Qionghua opened the door with a pale face.

In the small room, there were a few chairs and a table. It was dead silent and empty. Sun Rui was sitting quietly. Her pupils were dilated, and her eyes were lifeless. She looked like a corpse. Her hands were twisting her clothes, and the veins on the back of her hands were bulging slightly. Her entire body was trembling.

When she heard the door open and saw Sun Qionghua, she was still a little dazed.

“Auntie…” Sun Rui tried to get up, but she was fixed to the chair and couldn’t move. “You have to save me. Save me. I don’t want to die. Auntie…”

Ever since she had climbed into Fu Chen’s bed, their relationship had been very tense. Sun Rui hated her for not helping her, and Sun Qionghua was angry at her.

“Did you hire people to commit murder?” Sun Qionghua gritted her teeth, her voice trembling slightly.

“Auntie, I was rash. I didn’t…”

Sun Qionghua rushed over, aimed at her face, and slapped her hard!

“You were rash? You’re still quibbling at a time like this? You’re beyond redemption!

“You even hid drugs. Do you know how many police officers sacrifice their lives every year to fight drugs?

“You want me to save you? You want me to insult their sacrifices? Their families can’t even erect tombstones for them because they’re afraid of revenge. You’ve really brought honor to our Sun family this time!”

When Sun Rui heard this, she broke down and cried. She knew that Sun Qionghua wouldn’t save her.

“Auntie?” Sun Qionghua’s heart turned completely cold. “You’re not worthy of calling me that at all. All these years of treating you well have been fed to the dogs!”

…

When Fu Zhongli heard Sun Qionghua say this, he felt relieved.

Fu Chen patted his shoulder. “It’s a good thing that Second Sister-in-Law understands. I’ll go call Mom and Dad.”

“Okay.”

Fu Chen walked to the window at the end of the long corridor, lowered his eyes, and made a call. The police lights in the police station’s yard flashed, and the light reflected in his eyes was terrifying. “Hello, Mom.”

“How is it? Have you seen her?”

“Don’t worry. Our family won’t become chaotic.”

She was really involved in drugs, and no one could protect her.

When Old Madam Fu heard this, she felt slightly relieved. She spoke to Dai Yunqing before going to the study to talk to Old Master Fu.

…

Everyone didn’t sleep all night. When Old Madam Fu pushed the door open and entered, he was leaning against a chair and smoking. The entire study was shrouded in smoke.

“Second Daughter-in-Law can see clearly. She’s not muddled this time. Don’t worry.”

Old Master Fu nodded. “I’m not worried about her. I’m just afraid that because she has a connection with the Fu family, it will make others feel bitterly disappointed.” Once people suspected that the Fu family was involved and doubted them, anyone’s blood would turn cold.

Old Madam Fu walked to the table and saw a piece of Xuan paper on it. She splashed ink on it and wrote eight words:

[Ten years of drinking ice cannot cool hot blood.]

Old Master Fu lowered his eyes and took a puff of smoke. His voice was hoarse from the vicissitudes of life. “I’m afraid that because of our family, people’s hearts will turn cold. I will have let down the children who sacrificed themselves for this.”
