CHAPTER 868: CHAPTER 868: A MOTHER’S FAULT FOR NOT DISCIPLINING HER CHILD (8)

That’s called fate you can’t escape.

Seeing the arriving doctor, who performed emergency procedures on the poisoned old lady, there was no improvement, and she heavily closed her eyes.

The relatives at the table held their heads and cried into a cluster.

No one was allowed to leave the restaurant because, clearly, someone had poisoned her!

In the face of a human life, and as human life is of utmost importance, the police dared not be negligent.

Continuously supported by criminal investigation police forces, they arrived at the scene, hoping to solve the case as quickly as possible.

Records from all the cameras in the restaurant were compiled together.

Soon, a target suspect caught the police’s attention.

In the middle of the protesting crowd, Xiao Shuju, who did not understand what was happening, suddenly saw the situation take a 180-degree turn.

Several police officers pushed through the crowd and abruptly grabbed her niece, Kang Yueting.

"Hey, what are you doing?!" Xiao Shuju quickly pushed through the crowd like a swimmer.

Kang Yueting was about to faint; when several police officers surrounded her, she shook like falling autumn leaves.

Until she suddenly heard Xiao Shuju’s voice of rescue.

Xiao Shuju said, "Do you know what you’re doing? How could she poison that old lady? None of us know that old lady or the people at her table! Also, do you know who we are?"

Those words undoubtedly injected a shot of adrenaline into the nearly fainting Kang Yueting.

Kang Yueting straightened her neck and chest, declaring to everyone, "I am the lady of the Kang Family, my mother’s surname is Xiao, and she is the current president of Changda. You need to know the kind of person you are suspecting!"

Gu Nuan watched from afar, suddenly feeling it was a bit ridiculous, her lips curled, almost laughing.

These two people, don’t they realize that the law is merciless, and it doesn’t care if you’re rich and powerful? As long as the evidence is conclusive, even the Emperor cannot save you.

Kang Yueting is finished; if the intention was to poison and kill someone, surely she’ll face the death penalty, there’s no escape. Not to mention whether Xiao Shulan has the ability to save her daughter’s life; if the old croc finds out, he would pretend to be dead and disown this granddaughter.

Crazy, truly crazy.

How could an ordinary person do such a thing?

To think of poisoning a romantic rival!

Ou Shihua and Ou Chunhua’s legs went limp when they saw the police arrest Kang Yueting.

Needless to say, the old lady lying there with her eyes closed was originally their fate.

"This, this is simply—!" Ou Shihua angrily pounded the table with his fist.

Gu Nuan casually retorted, "Didn’t President Ou just have his eye on the daughter of the second miss?"

"Nonsense! Such a madwoman, how could I be interested? Let me tell you, such a madwoman, her mother isn’t much better—" With this, it turned into Ou Shihua advising others strongly against doing business with Xiao Shulan.

Ou Chunhua’s heart was pounding as she wondered how she never noticed that Xiao Shulan and her daughter were such people. It was truly terrifying, incredibly terrifying!

She looked back and discreetly glanced at Gu Nuan: Did she know all along?

Xiao Shuju and Kang Yueting argued with the police for a long time, but helpless and outmatched, they had no choice but to get into the police car and go to the police station. Therefore, when Kang Yueting was taken away by the police, Xiao Shuju quickly called Xiao Shulan.

Upon hearing her third sister say that her daughter poisoned someone to death, Xiao Shulan’s mind felt as if it had been blown up by a bomb.
