My brother is reborn and his engagement is changed; my ex-sister-in-law is pregnant again and again.

Just as Lin Yurui was about to go to sleep, he suddenly heard a knock on the door. After the Lin family sold all their assets to President Chen, they had moved out of the villa. However, their situation was definitely better than the Qin family's, because they still had a large apartment, so the whole family was living in that apartment, unlike Qin Mei, who was even renting a place to live.

Hearing the knocking, Liang Hongyan woke up from her sleep. She didn't know what was going on, so she could only suppress her annoyance, get up, go to the door, and open it.

The people at the door were wearing police uniforms. Seeing this scene, Liang Hongyan's heart skipped a beat. After all, if you had to say who you least wanted to be associated with in this life, it would definitely be the police.

"Officer, what's wrong...?"

Where is Lin Yurui?

"Huh? My son? What happened to my son?"

Hearing the police directly mention Lin Yurui's name, Liang Hongyan had a vague sense of foreboding. After all, the police came to her house late at night and immediately mentioned Lin Yurui's name. Something must have happened. Her son had been at home the whole time, so he shouldn't have done anything wrong, right?

"Your son is involved in smuggling, so you need to assist us with our investigation."

"Officer, this must be a misunderstanding. My son has been staying at home recently. How could he be involved in smuggling? I think there must be something wrong here."

Liang Hongyan definitely wouldn't believe that Lin Yurui was smuggling.

"But we have concrete evidence here."

Where are they?

The team leader took a deep breath and continued.

"Yes, yes..."

At that moment, Lin's father also came out of the bedroom.

"What's wrong?"

"Yu Rui is involved in smuggling, this..."

Mr. Lin was slightly taken aback.

"Officer, this must be a frame-up, my son..."

Seeing the two of them keep talking like that, the team leader became somewhat dissatisfied. He waved his hand, ordering his men to go in and arrest the people. Lin Yurui was lying on the bed at this time. He could only hear what sounded like people talking outside, but he couldn't make out the specifics. If Lin Yurui could hear clearly, he probably wouldn't be lying on the bed so calmly.

When the bedroom door was pushed open with a bang, Lin Yurui instinctively sat up. When she saw the police officers at the door, her eyes widened in panic.

police?

How did they get here?

"Lin Yurui, you are suspected of illegal smuggling, so you need to come with us."

"Come on, cooperate with our investigation, and maybe you can get lenient treatment."

At that moment, Lin Yurui realized something.

smuggling?

Oh no, which side has been discovered?

How could this be...?

"This, this..."

At this point, although Lin Yurui still wanted to say something, it was clear that they wouldn't give him a chance to speak anymore; Lin Yurui was now completely under their control.

"Officer, please listen to me, this must be a misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding."

At this point, Lin's father and Liang Hongyan couldn't care less about anything else and kept insisting that it was a misunderstanding.

"Son, tell me quickly, this is a misunderstanding."

Liang Hongyan looked at the silent Lin Yurui and became anxious, but even if Lin Yurui spoke, it probably wouldn't be of much use, because whether it was a misunderstanding or not depended on what the other party said, but on the evidence.

"We also received accurate information, otherwise we wouldn't have come here to take him away. In short, if you have any questions, you can report them through the relevant departments, but Lin Yurui must be taken away today."

The police were adamant. After saying those words, they took Lin Yurui away, and Lin Yurui became anxious.

"Mom, save me, save me!"

"Dad, save me!"

"..."

At this point, Lin Yurui was truly in despair.

After all, this is a huge matter; if it's discovered, everything will be over.

I might end up in prison for the rest of my life.

Of course, Lin Yurui was overthinking it. Spend his whole life in prison? Nobody gets off that easily. Lin Yurui will be executed within a year.

Seeing Lin Yurui being taken away, Liang Hongyan suddenly sat down on the ground, her face filled with disbelief.

"What...what's going on?"

Liang Hongyan's voice trembled as she spoke. Hearing this, Lin's father took a deep breath. He didn't know what was going on either. After a long while, Lin's father looked at Liang Hongyan.

"Is this... related to that company that Yurui Investment invested in? Isn't that company involved in foreign trade?"

At this moment, Lin's father suddenly thought of the investment Lin Yurui had mentioned some time ago. It seemed to be a foreign trade company. If it was foreign trade, then smuggling was a possibility. But how could this be...?

"Could it be related to that company?"

"That's possible. If that's the case, Yu Rui's situation isn't too serious. I'll contact a lawyer now and see if I can find out the details of this matter through them."

At this point, Lin's father had no choice. After all, he was his eldest son, and he certainly needed to take care of him. Of course, Lin's father was thinking too simply at this time. He felt that smuggling was not too serious, and that he might just be an accomplice. In that case, he would only be in jail for a few years at most, which would not be too serious, and he might even get a suspended sentence.

However, when Lin's father learned about this, he was completely desperate, but that was some time later.

Although Lin's father is not as powerful as he used to be, he still has some connections. Therefore, he quickly contacted a very influential lawyer in the industry. This lawyer had good connections and could find out about almost everything.

"Smuggling? Old Lin, if what you're saying is true, it might indeed be because of this foreign trade company. But don't worry, I'll go ask what's going on. I don't think it's too serious."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

"It's alright, just wait for news. This matter probably won't be too serious, and it might even be a suspended sentence."

"Um."

After ending the call, Lin's father felt somewhat relieved because of the lawyer's words.

After the lawyer hung up the phone, he didn't hesitate and dialed a number he knew.

The call was connected very quickly.

When the other party realized that the call was for this reason, he coughed.

"Have they found you?"

"Yeah, they wanted me to find out what's going on. Um, what's going on? Is it convenient for you to tell me?"

The other person smiled after hearing this.

"Let me tell you something more. This matter has been specifically instructed to be kept secret, so you should understand what that means. If I were you, I wouldn't get involved in this."

The lawyer was slightly taken aback.

"Then can you tell me a likely outcome?"

"death penalty."

As soon as those two words were uttered, the lawyer understood that the smuggled goods were not ordinary. Otherwise, if it were just simple smuggling, it would never be punishable by death. Therefore, it was very likely that a large number of contraband items were involved. In fact, sometimes smuggled goods are not necessarily contraband. If you enter the country through normal channels, you need to pay taxes, but if you smuggle, you do not need to pay taxes. So some people choose smuggling in order to save taxes and make more money.

At first, the lawyer also thought so, but after hearing what the other party said, the lawyer realized that he had been thinking too simply.

"In that case, I'll tell his family that we can't find out anything, and ask them to think of other ways."

"Okay, I think there's no problem with saying that. Anyway, keep it a secret."

"Um."

After ending the call, the lawyer tapped his fingers on the table.

Looking at his phone, he felt that the Lin family was truly unlucky.

I never expected to encounter something like this.

Lin Yurui... Heh, that's really something else. Smuggling actually got him killed. I don't know if the other party was bold or stupid. But anyway, this matter doesn't have much to do with him.

About half an hour later, the other party saw that it was almost time and dialed Lin's father's number. How could Lin's father be asleep at this time? When he saw the other party calling, he answered the phone without any hesitation.

"How is it?"

Lin's father's voice trembled.

"Old Lin, I just contacted someone I know, and they said this is confidential and they can't say anything. It might be a little more complicated than I thought. How about this, why don't you ask someone else?"

"Keep it a secret?"

"Yeah, that's what they said, so there's really nothing more I can say. Okay, I have other things to do, so I'll hang up now."

After leaving those words, the other party hung up the phone without waiting for Mr. Lin to say anything. It seemed that the other party had no intention of getting involved in the matter at all. Looking at the disconnected phone, Mr. Lin's expression was gloomy and uncertain. He hadn't expected that the other party hadn't found out either.

For some reason, Lin's father could clearly sense that something was wrong at this moment. After all, keeping it a secret... proved that this matter was probably very big, otherwise, why would they keep it a secret?

Although the rule is to keep it confidential, this rule is actually designed to deal with ordinary people. Although their family is not at its peak, they are definitely not ordinary people. However, even if they are told to keep it confidential, even the most foolish person can realize that something is wrong.

Taking a deep breath, Lin's father kept pounding his thigh, trying to figure out what was going on. Meanwhile, Lin Yurui had been taken into the interrogation room.

Lin Yurui sat in the chair, her mind completely blank.

"Lin Yurui, do you think there's any chance of them putting up a last-ditch resistance now?"

The interrogator looked at Lin Yurui and spoke calmly. Lin Yurui took a deep breath upon hearing this.

"I...I don't know what you're talking about..."

"Don't you know what I'm saying? So you think we arrested the wrong person? I'm asking you, why were there contraband items on that ship? And why did you make that phone call an hour ago?"

Hearing this, Lin Yurui understood that the other party already knew. However, Lin Yurui was also thinking about how her family was trying to save her. Therefore, she could not admit it at this moment. If she did, she would be truly doomed. So, Lin Yurui made up her mind.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

The interrogators laughed at this. They had seen people resist stubbornly before, but they had never seen anyone resist this stubbornly. Did this person really think their parents could save them? They were dreaming.

"You're really stubborn. You don't think the outsiders can save you, do you? You're too naive. Let me tell you, you only have one way out now: tell them everything you know. That way, you might still survive. But if you continue like this, I'm telling you, you're doomed."

Lin Yurui was actually scared, after all, it was his first time experiencing something like this. But even so, Lin Yurui was stubborn. No matter what the other party's question was, his answer would always be the same: he didn't know.

At this point, the interrogators were at their wits' end.

"Alright, then you should think about it carefully."

"Anyway, your life is in your own hands."

After saying this, the interrogator left. Watching their departing figures, Lin Yurui finally breathed a sigh of relief. Just moments ago, she had almost reached her limit, and only now that they were gone could she relax. Meanwhile, in another office, several people were discussing the same matter.

"I never imagined there could be such a stubborn person in this world. We've already clearly investigated everything, yet they still claim they don't know anything, as if we wouldn't know unless they told us."

One person spoke with a disdainful tone, and the other person next to him chuckled.

"He probably still thinks his parents can save him, so he doesn't want to leave any evidence. But he's too naive. Anyway, he doesn't care. He's just been asking questions normally these past few days, once an hour. In short, don't let him sleep. I don't believe that a rich kid can withstand this."

"But I heard that his younger brother is Lin Yuze, and Lin Yuze's fiancée is Su Rui. Could this be...?"

"No, they won't get involved in this. Alright, this is a complicated matter, and I can't explain it clearly in a short time. Just remember that they won't care about this."

Hearing this, everyone finally felt completely relieved. This night was exceptionally long for the Lin family. After the sky brightened, Lin's father and Liang Hongyan quickly contacted other people they knew to inquire about the situation, but the answers were all the same.

That means the investigation couldn't find out...

At this point, the couple looked at each other in bewilderment; they now only had one option left.
