When Li Tian and Li Zilong entered, the atmosphere in the house was unusually heavy.

A heavy weight hung over everyone's faces, almost dripping with sweat.

Although they only heard half of it, they knew something serious had happened.

It's still a case involving a death.

That group squeezed every last bit of value out of Wenqing.

They're so willing to go all out; it seems they won't stop until they've crippled the Li family.

Li Tian pulled Li Zilong back to the room to change clothes.

I can't cause trouble for my family right now.

Lee Seungri never doubted Lee Won-joo. Once he confirmed that Lee Won-joo went straight home after watching the movie last night, he had even less chance to get close to Wen Qing.

After thinking it over, I first reported the situation to the national security department.

They are the ones following up on Wen Qing's investigation and are therefore the most qualified to speak on the matter.

Moreover, this matter is not simple.

Is the other party just trying to smear Li Yuanchao?

Not too possible.

After hanging up the phone, Li Shengli called Lao Wang from the Public Security Bureau.

He recounted everything he knew so far.

"Brother, I'll set up a special task force to investigate this matter right away. You need to get moving too. It seems they want to wage a media war, so we absolutely can't let things escalate."

"Thank you. Please let me know if anything comes up, provided it doesn't put you in a difficult position."

"Okay, let me find out the situation first."

The phone call ended, and the room fell silent again.

We know nothing about it, so there's nothing to discuss.

Li Yuanchao stood up; he couldn't just sit there and wait.

"Dad, Mom, I'm going to go and see what they're up to."

Ye Zhao stood up as well.

In such a situation, a man would likely find himself unable to defend himself, as any explanation would sound like an attempt to shirk responsibility.

She couldn't let her son fight alone.

"Old Li, you stay home and keep things in order. Yuanchao and I will go and take a look."

Li Tian had just finished changing her clothes and came out when she grabbed Ye Zhao's hand.

"Grandma, I'll stay with you."

Ye Zhao patted Li Tian on the shoulder. The child is thoughtful, but too young to get involved.

"We'll take care of things at home. You and Zilong eat your meal properly, and then go to school obediently."

Li Tian did not let go.

Good things don't go out, bad things pass thousands of miles.

Even children fawn over the powerful and look down on the weak, and their words can be incredibly hurtful.

She didn't want to listen to those gossips and wanted to contribute to her family.

"Grandma, my dad's case is the most important thing. I want to do my part. If I can't clear my name, how can I continue my studies?"

Ye Zhao squeezed Li Tian's hand.

That's considered an implicit agreement.

Li Yuanchao never had the habit of backing down in the face of trouble.

"My dear daughter, I am upright and honest, and I will never allow anyone to smear me or harm you."

Li Tian held Ye Zhao with her left hand and Li Yuanchao with her right.

"If we work together, we'll be invincible. I won't cause trouble, and I can even say things you can't say at crucial moments."

We are all in this together, whether we prosper or suffer.

When the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact.

Li Tian is an asset, not a burden.

Li Shengli had witnessed it.

"Take Tian Tian with you, she might actually be able to help."

"Grandpa, I'm going to protect Tian Tian and Grandma."

Lee Seungri waved his hand, saying that all children should be treated equally.

The two can also look after each other.

"Go, see the dangers of the world, and protect yourself."

Li Zilong responded and went to Ye Zhao's side.

No sooner had they left than Li Shengli made a phone call to the security department.

Regardless of the outcome of the negotiations, safety is the top priority.

The entrance to the compound was unusually lively at this moment.

Wenqing's family members are still there, wailing and lamenting.

A crowd of onlookers had already gathered around, pointing and whispering.

The police officers nearby tried to persuade and comfort them, but did not forcibly pull them away.

The guards in the compound stood there like pine trees.

As long as no one rushes in, they won't interfere.

The scene was too noisy to talk, so Li Yuanchao went directly to the gatekeeper and got a thermos.

With a thud, it fell onto the open ground.

A tremendous explosion rang out.

Instantly diverting everyone's attention, even the sobbing stopped abruptly.

Li Yuanchao was the first to walk to the center of the crowd.

"You say I murdered Wenqing, do you have any evidence? If you have evidence, then sue me. What are you doing throwing a tantrum here!"

"Are you deliberately trying to ruin my reputation, or are you dissatisfied with the government?"

A middle-aged woman was the first to get up from the ground and charged at Li Yuanchao with bared teeth and claws.

"You heartless bastard..."

Li Tian and Li Zilong weren't there to watch the show.

While Li Yuanchao went to get the thermos, the two of them stole the guard's broom and mop.

These can be used as weapons, but they are not murder weapons.

Before the woman could get close to Li Yuanchao, the two children waved brooms and mops and blocked her way.

Li Tian even deliberately shook the dust off the broom.

"Speak your mind. Assaulting a soldier is illegal!"

"You two brats, get out of the way."

"No way!"

"No way!"

The two children not only refused to give way, but instead took a step forward, waving what they were holding, forcing the woman to step back.

Ye Zhao grabbed Li Yuanchao, urging him to temporarily avoid the limelight.

Li Tian looked at the woman opposite her, and she couldn't see the slightest hint of sadness in her expression.

"Our teachers taught us to abide by the law and to find the police if we have any problems."

Why didn't you report the death of someone in your family to the police?

"We live in a society governed by law, and you still want to settle personal scores? That's illegal too."

Being forced back by a little kid who was half her height not only ruined her plans but also made her lose face.

The woman lowered her head, looking aggrieved and wronged.

"What can ordinary people like us do? Is reporting it to the police even useful? It's just a case of officials protecting each other."

Li Tian chuckled.

"Officials protecting each other? Who's protecting whom?"

"If you can't say the name, the police might sue you for defamation."

"You're so young yet you're already so sharp-tongued and bullying. It's all because you have your family backing you up."

After scolding Li Tian, ​​the woman turned around and looked at the surrounding crowd, her face immediately filled with sorrow.

"My niece Wenqing is a wonderful college student. She is beautiful, well-behaved, and sensible. She is all the hope of my brother and sister-in-law."

"Who would have thought that a pure and innocent young woman would be manipulated by Li Yuanchao to the point of depression and suicide? Before her death, she wrote a suicide note saying that she had no will to live and never wanted to live a humiliating life again."

"I have a suicide note and photos of them in bed together."

The woman wiped her eyes with her sleeve.

"Even if my niece suffered all sorts of injustice, she committed suicide. The law? Can the law severely punish Li Yuanchao?"

"It's not that I don't want to sue, it's that I can't!"

"Wenqing, why did you have to do something so foolish? How are we, your family, supposed to live now..."

The woman started another round of crying and fussing.

It's like a funeral procession.

Who can stop someone from crying?

Wow, they're trying to make it impossible for anyone to prove anything!

Li Tian felt a chill run down her spine as she read it.

Holding the so-called "suicide note" and photos, they threw excrement and urine all over Li Yuanchao.

How can I prove my innocence?

Li Yuanchao's face was both pale and red at this moment.

I'm so angry.

That person is spouting nonsense; not a single word of truth is he speaking!
