Mother Xia has always been slow-witted, so as soon as she heard what the staff said, she believed it right away.

That’s why there was that whole scene of Mother Xia opening her mouth to "identify" Xia Chuyi.

Putting together what she’d seen herself and Mother Xia’s statement, Xia Chuyi pieced the whole thing together in one go.

Having gotten the answer she wanted, Xia Chuyi nodded slightly and said, "Then what about Xia Lianlian? Did you see her? How did she react at the time?"

"And also, when you fell into the water, why didn’t she save you?" Xia Chuyi went on, "Not only did she not save you, Xia Lianlian even turned around and ran off, leaving you there. Have you ever thought about what’s wrong with that?"

"This..." Hearing that, Mother Xia glanced at Chuyi again, then lowered her head, hesitating, not knowing how to answer.

"You don’t know? Or..." Xia Chuyi had no intention of letting Mother Xia off. "Are you trying to cover something up for Xia Lianlian?"

Hearing this, Mother Xia said in a bit of a panic, "No, I’m not covering for Lian’er!"

"Lian’er, she... she might have seen you and been afraid you’d call someone to have her arrested, so... so she left first..." In the end, though Mother Xia was stammering, she still voiced what she was thinking.

"A-and besides, maybe she went after the person who pushed me into the water!" Everything in Mother Xia’s words was helping Xia Lianlian explain herself.

In other words, it had never even occurred to Mother Xia to suspect Xia Lianlian.

Hearing this, Xia Chuyi of course seized the advantage and pressed on.

Who knew that the stupid hothead would step forward again and say, "Hey, are you done yet?"

"The way you’re talking, it sounds like you’re coercing a confession," the stupid hothead shouted.

Faced with this "justice-obsessed" reaction from the stupid hothead, Xia Chuyi was actually getting calmer.

"Coercing a confession?" Xia Chuyi said calmly. "Fine, then I won’t ask anymore."

"Officer, right now the situation is, she says the person who pushed her into the water was someone I sent..." Xia Chuyi shook her head and said to the Police Station officer, "But I never did such a thing, and I don’t even know this person."

"So I hope you officers will step in and find this person as soon as possible." Xia Chuyi said evenly, "So I can clear my name as soon as possible."

Hearing that, the stupid hothead also said, "Yeah, you guys at the Police Station hurry up and find that person, so we can know who really ordered the person who pushed Auntie into the water!"

Even as he said that, the stupid hothead’s eyes were on Xia Chuyi.

Obviously, the stupid hothead was still standing on Mother Xia’s side.

After all, the stupid hothead still felt that Mother Xia was pitiful, while Xia Chuyi was aggressive and hateful.

The young and impulsive stupid hothead’s reaction, to be honest, was something Xia Chuyi had already expected.

So Xia Chuyi glanced at the stupid hothead, then at Mother Xia, and finally said to the officer, "Comrade, I’ll have to trouble you."

Hearing Xia Chuyi say that, the officer immediately replied, "It’s no trouble, no trouble, it’s our duty!"

Then the officers opened a case file and started preparing the next steps.

As for Xia Chuyi and the others, they left the Police Station. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Once outside the Police Station, Xia Chuyi still hadn’t said anything, nor made any move.

It was Ou Jun who stepped forward, getting ready to ask Mother Xia something.

Seeing this, Mother Xia immediately looked frightened and hid behind the stupid hothead and his girlfriend.

Clearly, Mother Xia knew how awkward her situation was and could only look for someone to lean on.
