Chapter 1200  : Goodbye, Second Brother (20)

Qiao Lian was stunned when she saw the headline.

She widened her eyes in shock and read the report in disbelief.

The wealthy businessman Mr. Lu referred to in the report was Lu Nanze.

He had actually gone to the police and admitted that the jerry-built building project from eight years ago had actually been a set-up, a ploy that the Lu family and Qiao Zhigang had planned to gain commercial benefits.

As for why the police had never been able to find evidence, it was because Qiao Zhigang had had access and covered up the tracks in the Qiao family business. The fire was also started by the deceased in cahoots with Qiao Zhigang.

He said that this matter had been eating at his father’s conscience before his father died, but the man hadn’t had the courage to tell the world.

Now that the man had had an accident, Lu Nanze wanted to help his father realize his last wish.

Qiao Lian knew that the final remarks were fake.

Lu Nanze was just trying to make his father look better.

But she felt that this… was adequate.

It was really adequate.

The moment the man died, Qiao Lian had thought that it was similar to what had happened eight years ago.

She had never thought that the truth would be out now.

Dad and Mom finally had their names cleared.

She bit her lip hard and clenched her fists tightly, her eyes reddened with emotion.

Her gaze was fixed on that report for a while before she finally took a deep breath.

Noticing her reaction, Shen Liangchuan glanced at her a few times. In the end, he walked over to her curiously and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Qiao Lian looked up, still overwhelmed with emotion, and showed him the article on her cell phone.

Their interaction had completely left Shen Xiu ignored and the man was hopping mad. He complained, “Look at you, I’m talking to you guys, what sort of attitude is this? You’re indeed the child of scammers, such a low class woman!”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Lian’s head snapped up and she looked at him steadily. She said to him confidently and with her head held high, “My parents were not scammers!”

Shen Xiu smirked and said, “Your parents are not scammers? No one would admit that their parents are scammers! But so what if you don’t admit it? Facts speak louder than words, so are you saying that the whole world is wrongfully accusing you?”

“They dared to do it, but didn’t dare to admit it! At least if you were to admit it, I’d give you some credit. But now… Ha! Besides, it’s useless even if you don’t admit it.”

Shen Xiu’s words were most unpleasant and Xia Yehua frowned disapprovingly. She rebuked him, “Shen Xiu, what nonsense are you speaking?”

Shen Xiu raised an eyebrow and replied, “Why? Am I wrong?”

Xia Yehua opened her mouth to speak again but Qiao Lian interrupted, “My parents were wrongfully accused and now, their names have been cleared!”

At these words, she immediately handed her cell phone to Xia Yehua.

Her eyes reddened and she was completely overwhelmed to the extent that she almost forgot that Shen Xiu was there.

Upon reading the content of the news report, Xia Yehua was stunned too but immediately said joyfully, “Oh! The in-laws’ names have finally been cleared!”

“That’s right, Mom, I’m so happy. So so happy.”

Qiao Lian threw open her arms to embrace Xia Yehua.

Unable to contain her joy, she took the cell phone from the woman and said, “Mom, I- I have to call Qiao Yi.”

Xia Yehua nodded and said, “Go, go.”

Then without taking another look at Shen Xiu, she took her cell phone and went upstairs.

Upon reaching the bedroom of the second floor, Qiao Lian went to the balcony.

She looked at the cell phone and made a long-distance call to Qiao Yi.
