Chapter 729: No Lies
Chapter 729: No Lies
"Old sir, I have something that can prove that what I said is true. There is absolutely no falsehood."
After saying this, Xing'er took out a bank card from her wallet and handed it to Gong Qilin, explaining, "This is the reward that the Second Miss gave me after the incident. It's a full million. I left in a hurry because I was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so I didn't touch a penny."
This was indeed true. Xing'er had been on the run for less than 24 hours when she was captured by Lan Qichen's men. She had not yet had time to spend the one million yuan in the card.
She had wanted to wait until the storm had passed before taking her back to treat her mother, but she had never expected that Lan Qichen's men would act so quickly and efficiently, and they caught her in no time.
There was evidence, witnesses and evidence all pointing to Gong Wanwan. The evidence was irrefutable and she had no more words to argue.
Gong Qilin held the bank card with one million yuan in reward in his hand, and stared at Gong Wanwan quietly with his cloudy eyes. Although he was angry, he was more disappointed.
Gong Wanwan was indeed his granddaughter who was raised by him. The little girl was quirky, innocent and lively when she was young, and was very much loved by her grandfather. But no one expected that she would develop this kind of temper when she grew up.
The dirty thing of framing others had nothing to do with that sweet and kind little girl, but she did it, and she even threw the dirty water on her own sister. The Gong family had strict rules, and it was a shame that they would raise someone with such a temper.
"Gong Wanwan, you were the first to maliciously smash the white jade bottle, and then framed Ningning. Even now, you still refuse to admit it, and you keep telling lies! You have violated the family rules and committed a serious mistake, do you know that?"
Gong Qilin was furious, and his voice became several degrees higher when he was scolding people. Even Lan Qichen, who was usually calm and composed in the face of difficulties, was startled.
Gong Wanwan was so frightened that she immediately knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face: "Grandpa, I was wrong! I shouldn't have ordered people to break the white jade bottle, and I shouldn't have put the blame on my sister... I'm sorry, it's all my fault that Wanwan was bewildered and confused! As this is my first offense, please forgive me this time!"
Now Gong Wanwan confessed everything. She crawled to Gong Qilin, hugged his legs and begged for mercy.
When doing that thing, Gong Wanwan probably never thought that her plan would be exposed. She thought that if the surveillance was broken, she could make it watertight, but Xing'er gave away everything. She dared to conclude that Bai Ning and Lan Qichen used coercion and inducement to force Xing'er to confess, otherwise how could that little maid be willing to give up one million.
"Dad, Wanwan broke your beloved white jade bottle in a fit of rage. You watched her grow up, and she is kindhearted and not a bad person. She has absolutely no bad intentions. Please forgive her this time! I will teach her a lesson later and she will never do it again."
Gong Chenxi couldn't bear to see her daughter being punished. Worry was evident between her beautiful brows. She tried her best to persuade Gong Qilin to stop and let Wanwan go.
Bai Ning couldn't help but find it funny when she saw the scene in front of her. She still remembered that when she was criticized by thousands of people at the birthday party, Gong Chenxi was the one who took the lead in adding insult to injury. How could he be as eager to protect his own daughter as he is now!
"Grandpa, you are a fair man. You always enforce the law impartially and do not favor one party over another. I believe that you will definitely not bend the law for personal gain and shield the murderer this time, right?"
Lan Qichen suddenly spoke up, he held Bai Ning's hand tightly, suggesting that she should not be afraid, that he was there and would never let her be bullied.
Bai Ning curled her lips slightly, feeling very relieved. Finally, she was no longer alone. The feeling of being protected by someone was really good.
Gong Chenxi glared at Lan Qichen fiercely, obviously very dissatisfied with his attitude and behavior, but the other party didn't even look at her and didn't care at all about the angry look of the mother and daughter.
"Dad, don't listen to the nonsense of an outsider. This is our Gong family's internal affairs, and we should handle it internally instead of letting others point fingers at us."
Gong Qilin's expression was extremely ugly, completely different from his usual amiable appearance. Anger was visible between his gray brows, revealing his dissatisfaction with Gong Chenxi.
"Snapped!"
