The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 718 - 733 Call the Police.
Earlier, Old Sir Lu said he was feeling unwell, so Lu Jinghan took him to the hospital for a check-up. Ji Qing was worried about being caught drugging Old Sir Lu’s meals, so she hasn’t dared to take any action these days.
It wasn’t until dinner today that she couldn’t resist going back to the kitchen. At that moment, there was no one in the kitchen, and she was very cautious, but how did Lu Jinghan manage to find out?
Although Ji Qing was extremely scared inside, she still put on a calm front: "Jinghan, what nonsense are you talking about? Drugging and inheritance? You’re making me confused."
"Really, not planning to admit it?" Lu Jinghan leaned forward and flicked the ash in the ashtray on the coffee table.
"Jinghan, you’re wrongfully accusing your aunt, I’ve done nothing. What do you want me to admit to?"
Ji Qing thought to herself that he probably didn’t have any evidence, perhaps he was just bluffing her, she wasn’t foolish enough to think that willingly confessing would make Lu Jinghan go easy on her.
Ji Qing saw Lu Jinghan wasn’t speaking, paused and continued: "Is there someone in the family who wants to harm your grandfather?"
"Let’s call the police." Lu Jinghan said these words to Housekeeper Li.
Housekeeper Li nodded: "Alright, young master, I’ll make the call now."
Ji Qing hesitated to stop him but worried that speaking up would only raise Lu Jinghan’s suspicion more. She ran through the process of drugging in her mind, making sure no one noticed, so she kept quiet, allowing Housekeeper Li to take out his phone and dial the police.
After the call, Housekeeper Li bent down and whispered a few words in Lu Jinghan’s ear. Lu Jinghan nodded and looked at Ji Qing with his inscrutable eyes.
Suddenly, Ji Qing felt a vague sense of unease, she shifted and spoke: "Jinghan, who exactly wants to harm your grandfather? When the police arrive, we’ll need evidence."
Lu Jinghan pressed his cigarette-holding fingers against the sofa armrest, a smile cold as an icy pond on his lips: "Of course, there’s evidence."
Ji Qing’s face immediately fell, and she could no longer maintain her pretense of calmness: "You...you mean there is...evidence?"
Lu Jinghan nodded, took a deep drag from his cigarette, his eyes deep and obscure behind the thin smoke.
Ji Qing still clung to a glimmer of hope, believing the whole drugging process did not leave any traces, and she was certain no one was in the room at the time.
She had been so careful and cautious, surely there couldn’t be any so-called evidence.
Soon the Director Li arrived with his subordinates, since the Lu Family reported the incident, he had to personally come over.
"President Lu, I heard someone wants to murder Old Master Lu?"
Lu Jinghan nodded, extended his hand to invite Director Li to sit down: "Director Li, please wait a moment, I’ll have Housekeeper Li bring over the evidence for you."
With that said, Lu Jinghan turned around and nodded towards Housekeeper Li.
Housekeeper Li understood and headed upstairs to the study room.
Lu Jinghan extinguished his cigarette butt in the ashtray, leaned over to pour a cup of tea for Director Li: "Once Director Li takes them away, make sure to interrogate them thoroughly, this is an attempted murder, a criminal case."
"Rest assured, President Lu, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer." Director Li said with a smile, taking the tea from Lu Jinghan.
Ji Qing could no longer sit still, her expression becoming more flustered: "Jinghan, who exactly wants to harm your grandfather?"
