At this moment, the police officer behind Xue Liang, Yuan Shan, walked in front of everyone and raised the arrest warrant. "I'm sorry to have disturbed this competition for everyone. After investigation, Madam Qiao Xi was imprisoned in the Kang family's villa for a hundred days five years ago. The evidence is conclusive. We'll take the two suspects away to cooperate with the investigation. Mr. Kang Jichuan, Madam Kang Qingzhi, please."
Boom!!!
Yuan Shan's words were like a thunderclap that exploded in everyone's ears. They understood what the police officer meant. Bright Moon's real name was Qiao Xi. Most importantly, it was not Bright Moon who wanted to stay with the Kang family five years ago. In fact, Kang Qingzhi and Kang Jichuan were the ones who imprisoned Bright Moon for a hundred days!
Kang Ru's expression instantly stiffened, and her eyes were filled with shock. "How is that possible?!"
Xue Liang said coldly, "I think I heard Mr. Kang say that Little Six willingly stayed in the Kang family's house. In that case, you know about the imprisonment too. Mr. Kang, please go to the police station to cooperate with the investigation."
Kang Ru's face turned red as he gritted his teeth. "Y-You…"
"Did I say something wrong? Didn't you say that Little Six was willing to stay in the Kang family's house? However, reality has proven that this was a premeditated kidnapping. Old Madam Kang even distorted the truth just now and said that Little Six was greedy for the Kang family's wealth and refused to leave. This is considered slander, right?"
Xue Liang looked at the Kang family coldly. "If Mr. Kang and Old Madam Kang can't give me a reasonable explanation, I can only take the two of you away."
At this moment, Qiao Xi said with a smile, "Miss Kang, this is the reason why I couldn't leave the Kang family. It's because I was imprisoned by you. Moreover, you forced me to write those perfume recipes. In order to survive, I was forced to hand the perfume recipes to you."
Kang Qingzhi gritted her teeth and explained, "I didn't imprison you. I just let you come to our house as a guest!"
Officer Yuan Shan had already said that the evidence was conclusive, so naturally, no one believed Kang Qingzhi's words.
Kang Ru watched as the police cuffed Kang Jichuan and Kang Qingzhi away. He instantly panicked and hurriedly chased after them. "Qingzhi! Jichuan! What exactly is going on?"
Kang Jichuan's mind was a mess. He was still in shock and did not answer Kang Ru's words. Kang Qingzhi, who was at the side, had tears in her eyes as she said aggrievedly, "Dad! I didn't do it! Sister Xi Xi… gave the perfume recipes to me, but she's saying that I stole them. Dad, you have to save me!"
At this moment, Kang Jichuan suddenly turned his head and stared at Kang Qingzhi. He suddenly felt that the sister in front of him was so unfamiliar. Back then, Qingzhi insisted that she wrote those perfume recipes and even said that Xi Xi stole her perfume recipe. He reprimanded Xi Xi, but Xi Xi said that Qingzhi was the real thief.
At that time, he thought that Xi Xi had made a mistake but refused to repent. Hence, in a fit of anger, he locked her in the basement.
Could it be that the perfume recipes were really Xi Xi's? Had Qingzhi lied?
"Brother, you don't believe me either?" Kang Qingzhi sensed Kang Jichuan's gaze, and her tears welled up even more. She looked at him with a sad expression. "I'm really not lying. Sister Xi Xi did steal my things, but she didn't steal the perfume recipes. I was indeed selfish, so I didn't make myself clear. I was afraid that you would listen to Sister Xi Xi and chase me out of the house.
"Brother, my health has been poor since I was young. If I was really chased out of the house, I definitely wouldn't be able to live. I was really afraid…"
Kang Qingzhi sobbed helplessly. Kang Jichuan was silent for a moment and could only comfort her helplessly. "Don't cry. It's not all your fault."
They could not blame her, but could they blame Xi Xi? Xi Xi was clearly the victim!
For the first time, Kang Jichuan doubted his decision. He did not expect Xi Xi to have suffered so much. No wonder her eyes were filled with despair when she looked at him.
"Little bastard, she called the police over such a small matter! Not only will she embarrass the Kang family, but our perfume business will also be affected. Why won't this b*tch die?!"
Ignoring the fact that everyone was present, Old Madam Kang cursed crazily, "We should have killed her and her damned mom back then. There wouldn't have been so much trouble if we had done that!"
Kang Jichuan suddenly came back to his senses.
That was right! Xi Xi was wronged, but everything she did would have a huge negative impact on the Kang family. She was a child of the Kang family. Couldn't she think about the Kang family?
The guilt that had just surged in his heart suddenly dissipated. Instead, there was a trace of anger and blame.
When Kang Ru heard that Old Madam Kang wanted to kill Xia Yunqiu and Qiao Xi, he did not react. He knew that his mother had always had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Her words were a little vicious, but she would not really hurt Yunqiu and Xi Xi.
