Seeing that Luo Ying was not doubting her husband in the slightest, Officer Hou could not lead the conversation that direction. He could only ask, “Then, did your good friend, Tian Tian, ever enter your master bedroom?”
Luo Ying’s face turned ugly. She bit her lip and said, “She has been in there a few times.”
When Officer Hou heard this, his expression turned grave. “May I ask about your relationship with this Ms. Tian Tian?”
“We grew up together. She’s my best friend, and she cares about me the most. She was by my side when I was at my lowest.” Luo Ying’s tone was a little choked up with disbelief. “So, it can’t be her, right?”
“This Tian Tian.” Lu Zhao, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly cut in. ” Is she the one who’s been encouraging you to divorce me behind my back?”
As soon as he said this, all the police officers present were surprised. While looking at the interaction between the two just now, and the trust and attachment Luo Ying showed to Lu Zhao, there had been no indication that this couple as on the verge of divorcing.
Only Officer Hou remained unsurpised. Just by looking at the states of the rooms and the interaction between the two, he had guessed that something was off.
He also noticed that when this lady walked, she seemed a little clumsy. She must have been recently injured.
However, all these details had little to do with the case for the time being, so he didn’t pursue them. After asking the basic information, Officer Hou packed up the evidence and brought them back to the police station. “Don’t worry, we will summon Ms. Tian Tian to the police station to cooperate with the investigation. If there is anything else that needs to be clarified, the two of you may come to the police station again. Similarly, we will inform you after we have the results of the investigation.:
Lu Zhao handed over a business card. “This is my lawyer. If you have any questions, you can contact him. We only hope that no innocents are caught up in this, while the rightful criminals are caught.”
On the other side of things, after Luo Ying hung up on Tian Tian, she had been so angry that she smashed things in her room to vent her anger. After she calmed down, she turned on her phone, hoping to spy on Luo Ying. Perhaps she could learn why she had changed so drastically.
At that moment, her mother came in and asked her to go out. “It’s your grandfather’s birthday, the day after tomorrow. Come with me to pick out a gift and go shopping. We can pick out our outfits for that day.”
Shopping was Tian Tian’s favorite activity. Upon hearing this, she immediately put down her cell phone and went to the mirror to dress up. Then, the two of them went shopping together.
When the two of them returned after a long time, Tian Tian was about to pick up her mobile phone, when the police knocked on the Tian family’s door.
“Hello, Ms. Tian. We have a case regarding illegal surveillance on someone. You’re one of the suspects. Please cooperate with the police. We’re here for an investigation.”
The entire Tian family was dumbfounded, especially her mother. She held her daughter’s hand and refused to let go. “Did you make a mistake? Our daughter is so obedient. How could she be involved in such a dirty affair?”
Meanwhile, Tian Tian stood rooted to the ground in a daze. There was only one thought in her mind – she was finished!
She could not understand. How did she get found out? Now, the police had shown up at her doorstep. In other words, not only did Luo Ying know about this matter, but Lu Zhao also probably knew about it.
Tian Tian was well aware that Lu Zhao would never let her off the hook if she were to meddle with the Lu family.
While her mother was still dealing with the police, Tian Tian took out her phone to call Luo Ying with trembling hands.
She was only twenty-three years old and had a bright future ahead of her, so it was absolutely impossible for her to be charged and sent to prison! So she had to find a way to get herself out of this.
Tian Tian’s first reaction was to look for Luo Ying. Luo Ying was so stupid. As long as she could trick her, Luo Ying would believe her.
As for Lu Zhao, at this point, Tian Tian could only begrudgingly accept the truth. Lu Zhao valued Luo Ying dearly, so he would only let her go if Luo Ying did the pleading with Lu Zhao.
After sorting out this logic, Tian Tian’s flustered heart calmed down a lot. However, Luo Ying had already blocked all of her contact information, so Tian Tian was destined to be disappointed. No matter how much her mother threw a tantrum and flailed around, Tian Tian was still taken away by the police.
