Chapter 171: Very Good!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The news of Wei Chaoguo, the CEO of Wei Enterprise, being taken away by the police quickly spread online. As a nationally recognized company, there were many financial journalists keeping an eye on it. It caused quite a stir in society. However, for now, these developments didn’t concern Su Xuan and his team directly. Any potential connections were blocked by the city police department and Old Mai. What did concern them was Wei Chaoguo’s lack of cooperation once he arrived.

In the interrogation room, Wei Chaoguo had only one topic on his mind. “I don’t want to speak now. My secretary has contacted my lawyer. Please wait until my defense attorney arrives. I believe you can wait for such a short period without disturbing me. Thank you.”

Seeing the lack of cooperation, Zhou Qiang’s brows furrowed tightly. They had worked hard to bring the case to this point, and they had even brought the person back with them. They couldn’t afford to fail at this final step.

“Wei Chaoguo,” Zhou Qiang said from the interrogation position, his expression stern as he tapped the table. “Please understand this clearly. The police have already found evidence of your crime. This interrogation is your last chance. If you think you can escape with a defense attorney, it’s impossible. Now, I’m asking you, what was your motive for the murder?”

As soon as those words left Zhou Qiang’s mouth, Wei Chaoguo, sitting across from him, immediately closed his eyes, displaying a defiant attitude. Zhou Qiang took a deep breath, feeling like he was having a streak of bad luck these days. Why did everyone they faced lately refuse to cooperate?

However, he quickly adjusted his mindset. They had encountered uncooperative suspects before, and ultimately, they had all ended up in prison. Despite Wei Chaoguo’s different status, there was no doubt about the facts of his crime.

“Resisting will only make things harder for you,” Zhou Qiang said sternly. “I’ll give you one last chance…”

On the other hand, things were much smoother on Su Xuan’s side. In fact, it was almost too good to be true.

When Zhou’s parents found out that they might have another son, they were so excited that they rushed to get a DNA test. Even Zhou Hao’s cremation wasn’t of great concern to them. Of course, they couldn’t completely disregard it, given that the DNA test results hadn’t come in yet, but they couldn’t care less compared to before.

The contrast with their previous attitude was striking. They hurriedly completed the cremation, placed the ashes in a box, and placed it in Zhou Hao’s rented apartment. Then they headed straight to the police station.

Since Zhou Qiang was already in the interrogation room with the suspect, it fell to Su Xuan to meet Zhou’s parents. When they saw Su Xuan, their minds were solely focused on whether the DNA test results had come in or not.

Upon seeing them, the couple didn’t care which police officer it was; all they cared about was whether the results of the DNA test were available. They bombarded Su Xuan with questions.

Meanwhile, Zheng Qin, who had also attended the cremation and noticed Zhou’s parents rushing out afterward, followed them curiously. She had her own suspicions about the situation. When she heard the inquiries about the DNA test results, her hunch grew stronger.

“What are you talking about? What’s this DNA test result?” she asked.

“Uncle and Aunt, what’s going on?”

Zheng Qin wasn’t foolish. She had already formed a certain guess about the situation. Yesterday, Police Officer Zhou Qiang had called her, and not long after, Zhou Hao’s parents rushed out of their rented apartment. When they returned, they were visibly nervous. Now, they were treating Zhou Hao’s cremation carelessly and rushing to the police station.

Listening to their inquiries, Zheng Qin’s suspicion became even more pronounced.

“The DNA test results haven’t come in yet,” Su Xuan replied calmly. “Please don’t worry. Once the results are available, the police will be the first to know.”

However, when Su Xuan finished speaking, the couple in front of him became unhappy.

“This won’t do.”

“Officer, this is about finding out if that person is really my son!”

“If I really have another son, that would be amazing!”

Zhao Laidi immediately chimed in. After she returned home, she had discussed it with her husband. If he hadn’t secretly had a child outside of their marriage, then what the police had found was likely his biological child with her. It was very possible that they had switched their babies when they were young.

Gasp!

Didn’t that mean her biological son might still be alive?

“When will the DNA test result come out?”

“We’ll wait right here!”

Zhao Laidi looked at her husband as she spoke. This paternity test was not just between her husband and the other person; it also involved her and the other person. If the result showed that the child was truly theirs, they wouldn’t have to worry about their old age!

Thinking about this, Zhao Laidi’s mood became excited in an instant.

On the other hand, Zheng Qin opened her mouth as if to say something but held back. In this situation, whatever she said would be wrong.

Su Xuan hadn’t expected this couple to be so excited. Fortunately, they didn’t have to wait long before the test results arrived.

“According to the test results, your biological relationship with Chen Jianxun is 99.9%.”

“Which means, he is your biological son.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Laidi and her husband became extremely excited, but Zhao Laidi quickly realized something.

“What about Zhou Hao?”

After all, they had raised him for so many years. When she had the test done, she was confident about their biological relationship.

“…I’m very sorry,” Su Xuan sighed as he looked at the results.

“He is not your son.”

“Uncle and Aunt…”

“Do you mean…”

“Hao…”

Zheng Qin finally understood at this moment. She also remembered how her uncle and aunt, who had been nervous about Zhou Hao before, suddenly stopped caring about him. They had even initially said she couldn’t attend the funeral. When she came today, they only gave her a cold glance and walked away. Even during the cremation, they didn’t want to wait and immediately sent him into the furnace. Even the flowers were bought by Zheng Qin.

She had been puzzled by this change and wondered why it had happened. But now, she seemed to understand.

“Hmph! That brat Zhou Hao is indeed not our child!” Zhao Laidi was the first to react, and she immediately sneered. “I knew that neither my husband nor I had any illnesses. How could we have given birth to a sick child? It turns out he had been swapped out so many years ago…”

“Hahaha! This is great! We still have a son, honey! I can’t wait to see our son…” Zhou’s mother said excitedly, paying no attention to Zheng Qin standing nearby.

Although Zhou’s father didn’t show as much excitement as his wife, he didn’t refute her words. It was clear that he also wanted to see his son as soon as possible.

For this matter, Su Xuan could only assist them to the very end.

When he mentioned that Chen Jianxun was still in the interrogation room, Zhou’s parents were immediately shocked. Shortly after learning the reason, they both exclaimed, “What, our son killed Zhou Hao? But Zhou Hao died in an accident, didn’t he? Both of us, his parents, don’t even care about it anymore, and you are saying this?”
