Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Chapter 421 Being fooled



Chapter 421 Being fooled

Chi Moqing was taken aback, then reached out and grasped Yan Zuozuo's hand, "Wife..."

"I've made up my mind. You don't need to try to persuade me. If you try to stop me, I'll regret it for the rest of my life," Yan Zuozuo said firmly.

Chi Moqing's eyes softened: "Silly boy."

Yan Zuozuo smiled, opened her mouth as if to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.

Chi Moqing went to the kitchen to cut fruit for her. She sat alone in the living room, thinking about the child. If she really missed the child in the future, with transportation so convenient these days, seeing him wouldn't be difficult. It was precisely because she knew Chi Moqing cared for her that she was even more determined to make this decision.

Those were his family members, and also her benefactors!

A doorbell rang, and Yan Zuozuo walked curiously to the door. Upon opening it, she saw the police chief and Song Xian standing there. Her heart tightened. "Is there something you need?"

Just as Song Xian was about to speak, he was stopped and said very politely, "Madam Chi, we are here to apologize for what happened yesterday. I..." Before he could finish speaking, he saw Chi Moqing walking over, pulling Song Xian aside and gesturing for him to speak.

Clearly, Song Xian was unwilling, but since the other party was his superior, he could only purse his lips and say, "Mrs. Chi, I apologize to you. What happened yesterday was my fault."

Yan Zuozuo's expression didn't soften; the memory of yesterday still terrified her. For a moment, she didn't know what to say, and simply stood there. Just then, Chi Moqing walked up behind her, pulled her into his arms, and said coldly, "And then?"

Uh! Faced with Chi Moqing's imposing aura, he felt a chill run down his spine. Chi Moqing was no longer the same person he used to be; he was now a dignified general, and could not be taken lightly.

Of course, he wouldn't dare offend Chi Moqing in the past.

He coughed twice and said, "We were wrong in this matter and caused harm to Madam Chi. I brought this boy here today to apologize to you and Madam Chi. We promise to solve the case as soon as possible and give Madam Chi justice. Please forgive us."

Chi Moqing's expression was cold and indifferent. He glanced at her and then put his arm around Yan Zuozuo, leading her inside. "Come in."

The bureau chief breathed a slight sigh of relief, sitting on the living room sofa with an unusually restrained posture. Yan Zuozuo had originally intended to make tea to greet the guests, but was stopped by Chi Moqing.

Think about how they treated his young wife before. He's already being lenient by not holding them accountable. They expect his wife to take care of them? Dream on!

Chi Moqing's hostility was obvious, which made him break out in a cold sweat. This man was already frightening enough when he was the president, but now he has not only been reinstated but also promoted, making his aura even more terrifying.

He nervously licked his lips and said, "Besides apologizing to Madam Chi, I've come today to discuss the case with you." As he spoke, he respectfully placed the computer in front of Chi Moqing. "This is the surveillance footage from that time. Madam Chi is indeed a prime suspect."

Chi Moqing stared at the screen for a while, then asked in a low voice, "Is this all?"

Chi Moqing narrowed his eyes: "You can accuse someone of murder based on just one surveillance video? A huge charity organization only has this one video?"

Startled by Chi Moqing's sharp questioning, the police chief quickly told Song Xian, "What are you all standing there for? Bring all the surveillance footage over!"

Song Xian pouted, clearly resentful of being scolded. But he reluctantly got up, "I'll go get it now, but it'll take some time..."

Chi Moqing remained silent, while the bureau chief glared at him. "Why are you talking so much when I just asked you to retrieve the surveillance footage! Go now!"

Song Xian pursed his lips, turned around and left.

After watching the surveillance footage on the computer, Chi Moqing smiled mockingly. "When did Director Tong become so careless in his work?"

Chi Moqing's smile was somewhat eerie, and Director Tong's heart skipped a beat, involuntarily shivering. "What has General Chi noticed?"

"What do you think?" Chi Moqing asked with a cold smile.

He was stunned for a moment, then carefully took the surveillance footage and watched it meticulously. What he saw almost scared the wits off. Song Xian, I really don't know how he handles things!

Chi Moqing looked at him: "What does Director Tong want to say?"

“Um…”General Ikegami, although the previous arrest warrant was invalid, it was still signed off by higher-ups, and you know how difficult it is for us…

Chi Moqing raised an eyebrow: "So you can disregard the evidence and frame innocent people?"

The person being scolded didn't dare to speak. Not long after, Chi Moqing snorted coldly, "Whoever signed it, let him come to me. I want to see just how brazen some people can be!"

His words were so domineering that they startled him. Indeed, Chi Moqing had originally been protected by his superiors and forced into hiding. But now that the matter was resolved and he had been promoted, his abilities were clearly extraordinary.

Although he wasn't quite sure why the person in charge had signed, it seemed that the one who signed wouldn't fare much better. He secretly glanced at Chi Moqing, only to see him tightly protecting Yan Zuozuo, his face tense and grim.

She sighed quietly, mentally cursing Song Xian for always causing trouble. Of all people to mess with, why did he have to provoke Chi Moqing? Wasn't he just trying to get him killed?

“General Chi Shang, um… Song Xian was just transferred here. He’s a young man and doesn’t know any better. Don’t take it to heart…”

"What you've done, is it something to be considered trivial?" Chi Moqing sneered. "My wife hasn't been sleeping well at night since. If I don't confront him, who will be responsible for the emotional damage to my wife?"

Hearing this, his heart sank. Well, that's good; he no longer needed to plead for that brat Song Xian. Chi Moqing had put it this way, without implicating him in the matter; he was already burning incense and praying to Buddha.

"General Ikegami, how about this? Once the case is closed, I'll transfer this kid to a lower-level position and wait three to five years. This kid is really outrageous, doing something like this. He needs to be trained!"

Chi Moqing remained silent, simply holding Yan Zuozuo's hand. Did they think they could get away with it so easily? Dream on!

Since you dared to lay a hand on his wife, you should be prepared to pay double!

Forty minutes later, Song Xian returned, panting, and plugged the USB drive into the computer. "It's all here."

The police chief slapped him on the head, wishing he could strangle the kid to death. "What are your eyes for?!"

Song Xian was naturally upset about being beaten up for no reason. But before he could speak, he heard Chi Moqing's icy voice, "You're in charge of this case?"

Song Xian couldn't understand why someone's gaze was so sharp, like an ice blade cutting into flesh inch by inch. He nodded timidly, "Yes, yes."

"Very good, watch this surveillance footage again," Chi Moqing said sternly.

Song Xian was a little confused, but he still turned the computer to look at it carefully. Was there a problem? No problem. He looked at it from left to right and felt that Yan Zuozuo was very suspicious.

The police chief had an urge to shoot this guy: "Are you blind? When did Madam Chi go in, and when did she come out? Why isn't Madam Chi on the surveillance footage during that time?"

Upon hearing this, Song Xian quickly rewound the footage and was instantly shocked. One of the videos not only lacked any mention of Yan Zuozuo during the time of the crime, but also showed that she had left much earlier. In other words, the content and timing of the two surveillance videos didn't match at all!

Has the surveillance footage been tampered with?!

"Is there anything you two wish to say?" Chi Moqing asked coldly.

After a long pause, he finally spoke: "We will take the two surveillance videos back for analysis." He stood up and said guiltily to Chi Moqing, "We will definitely get to the bottom of this matter. Please rest assured, General Chi and Madam Chi."

"How many days will it take to get the results?" Chi Moqing asked.

The bureau chief, observing the situation, wondered if saying three days would anger Chi Moqing. He paused, then held up two fingers. "Two days?"

Chi Moqing's face darkened, clearly dissatisfied.

That day? But time is tight, and they can't be sure they'll give a satisfactory result.

Chi Moqing sneered: "I will send people to support you. We need results today!"

today?!

His eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in fright. He was about to speak, but when he saw Chi Moqing's "You dare to have a problem with this?" look, he nodded hesitantly, "Then I'll have to trouble you to send someone to help."

Chi Moqing made a phone call to his subordinate in front of the bureau chief, and the matter was resolved in just a few minutes. The bureau chief then left with Song Xian, rubbing his nose in dismay. Only after leaving the Chi family's house did he finally let out a long sigh of relief.

Song Xian scoffed dismissively, "So what if you have a high status? Does that give you the right to treat others badly?"

"Shut up!" "You think you haven't caused enough trouble already? Do you know how much trouble you've gotten yourself into? He's already being very kind by letting us in, and you still have the nerve to talk nonsense here?"

He knew this kid was no pushover the moment he was transferred here, and now look what happened—it's exactly what he feared. He made a mistake and still dared to put on a cold face in front of Chi Moqing; he deserves to never have a chance to turn things around.

Although he was angry, he meant well. However, Song Xian still looked disgusted. It's true, you'd be better off without a subordinate like that.
