Chapter 610 - 544: The Early Deceased First Wife in ’Son-in-law’ 7
Fortunately, the police station had an old patrol car.
It fit four people just right, because Director Zheng had brought another female officer.
So, Rong Yan and the female officer took their seats in the back.
The drive to Laiwang Village was quick, taking only half an hour.
"This is it." With Rong Wei guiding, the patrol car stopped right at their doorstep.
The road was wide enough from the village entrance here; otherwise, the patrol car really wouldn’t have been able to make it through.
They got out of the car.
Director Zheng glanced at the tightly shut gate, pitch-black inside, and guessed that everyone inside must be asleep.
"Xiao Li, go knock on the door."
Xiao Li stepped forward and raised his hand to knock...
Ms. Li had just gone to bed not long ago, so she wasn’t deeply asleep. When she heard the knocking, she woke with a start.
Then she quickly nudged the man beside her: "Hey, wake up. Someone seems to be knocking at the door. Go see who it is..."
The man, startled awake, was very annoyed.
"What are you doing in the dead of night? Can’t you let people sleep?"
He was so groggy that he didn’t even hear what his wife had said.
Just as he was about to turn over and go back to sleep, his body was nudged again.
This time, the man grew angry.
"What is it?"
"Husband, don’t sleep. There really is someone outside... Listen..."
Ms. Li wasn’t particularly brave, and she felt a strange sense of guilt that night, so she dared not go to the door even more.
The man listened for a moment, and sure enough, someone was knocking at the door.
He got out of bed with a sullen face, threw on some pants and a shirt, and pushed open the door to go outside.
When he opened the gate, ready to scold whoever was there, his mouth hung open in shock upon seeing three police officers outside.
Why would the police come to his house?
"What... what are you here for?"
"Are you Rong Shuiniu?"
The man was cowering now, nodding hurriedly, "Yes, I am Rong Shuiniu. Officer, what is this about? I’m an honest person..."
"Let’s talk inside!" Upon hearing this from Director Zheng, Rong Shuiniu immediately stepped aside.
As he watched the three officers enter, his heart was in turmoil, and when he saw Rong Yan at the end... his anger surged.
"Oh, so it’s you, you wretched girl stirring up trouble... I’ll beat you to death today..."
His mind was so consumed with rage, he even forgot about the presence of the police.
As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his fist toward Rong Yan...
But his punch never landed on Rong Yan.
Police Li timely restrained his hand.
"I’m disciplining my own daughter... I’m her father..."
That damn girl must have been let out by her mom. To think she even ran to the police station and brought the officers here, she really had some nerve.
"Even if you are her parents, you can’t hit a child like that. And moreover, we came to inquire about something from you. Is Rong Yan really your daughter? Is she your biological child?"
Police Li looked sternly at Rong Shuiniu.
The eyes of the others also fell on Rong Shuiniu.
Rong Shuiniu didn’t expect him to ask this, and his expression momentarily stiffened, "...Of course she’s my own flesh and blood... If she weren’t, would I have supported her through high school?"
"From what I know, Rong Yan didn’t spend any of your money for her education from elementary school through high school, except for the first grade."
Although it was late at night, the moon was still quite bright, so Xiao Li and the others didn’t miss the stiffness on Rong Shuiniu’s face.
"Still, she received an education. If she were not my own, I would’ve made her marry someone off long ago... Is she feeding you some nonsense?"
"I haven’t spouted any nonsense. Whether or not... There is now a DNA medical examination. This can determine if we are indeed biologically related as father and daughter. And it’s because of your wife... that I have the courage to be so sure. If there was a malicious switch, and you don’t confess leniently, it means jail."
Director Zheng: ...
Police Li: ...
They realized this girl was quite eloquent.
