In the mediation room, Rong Lan and Han Xiaoshuang were sitting across from each other at a wide and long table. The auxiliary police officers who had brought Rong Lan and Han Xiaoshuang to the mediation room left after seeing them seated.
Han Xiaoshuang knew Rong Lan, but she didn't initiate a conversation. Instead, she stared at Rong Lan haughtily, waiting to see what this young mistress of the Chu family would say.
Rong Lan was currently more curious about Chu Chuan than about Han Xiaoshuang. She didn't waste any time on Han Xiaoshuang and got straight to the point. "You should know who I am, so I won't introduce myself. I'm here to ask you a few questions. How did you manage to sneak into my residential community?"
Actually, her elder brother had sent people to investigate this matter, and they had found out very specific details. She was just curious to see if the results of their investigation matched Han Xiaoshuang's confession. If they did, she might be able to use Han Xiaoshuang to pull off a big plan.
Han Xiaoshuang didn't hide her contempt for Rong Lan at all. "For such a simple question, does the young mistress of the Chu family still need to ask me? You and your man are really good-for-nothings."
Rong Lan narrowed her eyes. It was fine for this woman to scold her, but she even dared to scold her elder brother. Her expression turned cold. "My elder brother stepped on your son to get to where he is. If you call my elder brother a good-for-nothing, then isn't your son even worse than a good-for-nothing?"
"You!" Han Xiaoshuang was so angry that her face turned bright red. "You, a fake phoenix who has risen to a high position, have no right to say such things!"
Rong Lan, the so - called 'fake phoenix', didn't bother to refute Han Xiaoshuang. She pressed her left hand on her right wrist to stop herself from hitting someone in the police station. "Ms. Han, I'm not here to argue with you. If you answer my questions properly, I might withdraw the lawsuit. As long as I withdraw the lawsuit, you can get out of the detention center. Otherwise, you'll have to go to jail for a few months."
At the words 'withdraw the lawsuit', Han Xiaoshuang suddenly calmed down and stared at Rong Lan suspiciously. "You're willing to withdraw the lawsuit?"
"Of course." Rong Lan nodded. "As long as you cooperate with me well, I'll seriously consider withdrawing the lawsuit."
Han Xiaoshuang hesitated for a moment. Seeing the determined look in Rong Lan's eyes, she finally didn't want to let go of this opportunity. "I'll answer your questions."
Her tone also softened, losing the overbearing arrogance from before. "It's not difficult to sneak into a residential community. Money makes the mare go. I just found a cleaner and gave her a large sum of money to take me into the community and cooperate with me. The money I gave her is enough for her to buy a big house in the small county of her hometown. Even if the truth comes out and she gets fired, it doesn't matter. She can just go back to her hometown to develop. In the big city, once her reputation is ruined, it's ruined. So she agreed to me."
"Sure enough—" Rong Lan sneered softly. Han Xiaoshuang actually cooperated. What Han Xiaoshuang said matched 99% of the truth that Chu Hengyuan's people had investigated.
After that, Rong Lan asked a few more questions, and Han Xiaoshuang obediently answered them.
When Rong Lan thought the groundwork was done, she threw out the question she was most concerned about. "What on earth were you trying to do after prying open my door?"
A look of guilt flashed across Han Xiaoshuang's eyes. She forced herself to look calm. "Steal documents, steal the documents of the Chu Group. As long as I can sell the documents of the Chu Group to its competing companies, Chu Hengyuan's reputation will be ruined."
This goal was cruel and reasonable enough. If Rong Lan hadn't caught that momentary look of guilt on Han Xiaoshuang's face, she might have believed this statement.
Rong Lan slowly shook her head, her expression cold. "Ms. Han cooperated so well with the previous questions and answered them so perfectly. Why did you choose to lie on this one?"
"I didn't lie!" Han Xiaoshuang wasn't going to admit it.
Rong Lan sneered. "Ms. Han even knows my exact address. I'm sure Chu Chuan has also told you what I do. I can calculate a person's past and future. Whether you're lying or not, I can see it clearly."
Han Xiaoshuang didn't take Rong Lan's words seriously. She disdainfully glanced at Rong Lan. "You're just a quack!"
A quack? Rong Lan, who had just earned two million, wasn't happy. If it weren't for the fact that the big plan she had in mind was so interesting, she would have left right away and didn't want to deal with Han Xiaoshuang. "Don't believe me—"
The little fox raised a playful smile. "Then don't blame me for exposing your secrets, Ms. Han."
"The university you attended was the same one that the former head of the Chu family and his wife attended. The former head of the Chu family and his wife were also well - known figures on campus back then. Their love story was well - known. Even after many years, there were still legends about them on campus. You found that you looked 70 - 80% similar to my mother, Zhen Rui. And seeing that the current wife of the former head of the Chu family wasn't my mother, Zhen Rui, you took the initiative to approach him when he came back to the school as an outstanding alumnus for the school anniversary. You even—used some underhanded means to have a relationship with him. You gambled that the former head of the Chu family wouldn't forget his girlfriend from his youth, and you were right. The former head of the Chu family really took a fancy to your face and kept you as his mistress."
Although Chu's father was a scumbag, Han Xiaoshuang wasn't an innocent person who was forced to submit to the powerful.
"You!" Han Xiaoshuang was so angry that she slapped the table and stood up. Her face was red, and her finger pointing at Rong Lan was trembling. "You! You're talking nonsense!"
"After Chu Chuan had a certain amount of power in the Chu Group, he always tried to brainwash people in the circle, portraying you as an innocent person who was targeted by the powerful and had to comply reluctantly, and was then kicked away when you were no longer useful. Of course, I suspect this was what you told Chu Chuan. But you're not that innocent, are you?" Rong Lan smiled with her eyes bent, but there was no trace of a smile in her eyes. "Why are you so agitated, Ms. Han? I'm just stating a fact. Ms. Han, please sit down quickly. This is a police station."
It was precisely because this was a police station that although she was angry that Han Xiaoshuang had scolded her elder brother, she could only fight back verbally and couldn't scold back. Similarly, when she exposed Han Xiaoshuang's secrets, Han Xiaoshuang couldn't lay a hand on her. Even if she was furious, she had to hold it back.
"You!" Han Xiaoshuang was so angry that it seemed as if steam was coming out of her head. But she still had her wits about her. Even if this weren't a police station, she wouldn't dare to touch the people around the devil, Chu Hengyuan, let alone in a police station.
She withdrew her finger pointing at Rong Lan, lowered her head, took three deep breaths, sat down again, and when she looked at Rong Lan again, her eyes carried a hint of veiled fear.
She was sure that apart from herself and the person from the Chu family, no one else knew about this private matter.
So this fake daughter of the Bai family actually had such abilities?
"Fine." Han Xiaoshuang gritted her teeth and glared at Rong Lan viciously. "I admit it. My original plan was to steal the cat you raised and use the cat to threaten Chu Hengyuan into giving back what originally belonged to Xiaochuan. Xiaochuan told me that you would be at your shabby fortune - telling shop during the day and wouldn't be at home, and Chu Hengyuan would also be at the Chu Group and couldn't go home. I didn't expect to run into Chu Hengyuan at home."
