Obsessive Tycoon and His Swan Girl
Chapter 129 - 129 129 Confessing the Scheme

Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Confessing the Scheme Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Confessing the Scheme Mrs. Wu had been most worried about Jiang Xiliang getting involved and causing a direct confrontation.

Seeing the situation now, she knew that what she had worried about couldn’t possibly happen!

As she watched Jiang Xiliang leave without interfering, Mrs. Wu felt more confident, and her complexion improved.

As long as Jiang Xiliang didn’t intervene, there was no way Jiang Zhe could handle this situation by himself!

Upon seeing this, Liang Jinlan immediately took the initiative and said, “Mrs. Wu, it’s true that Jiang Zhe is disobedient, which is why we had already kicked her out of the family. Now that she has caused such a big mess, you can punish her however you see fit. We won’t say a word against it, nor will we hold any grudges. If you need my help, I’m always available.”

Mrs. Wu looked down on her and merely gave her a cold glance.

Director Fang and Qin Jingchen accompanied Jiang Zhe as they walked out.

Wu Hen also arrived just in time.

Mrs. Wu was no longer very worried, and she asked Director Fang, “Director Fang, how is the interrogation with Jiang Zhe going? When will we proceed with the formalities?”

“Before we proceed with the formalities, Director Fang, I want to ask, we are in a police station now, so does that mean that everything we say is officially witnessed and monitored, and that there is evidence to support and records to check?” asked Jiang Zhe.

Although Director Fang didn’t dare offend Wu Hen, he was currently in the police station, and what Jiang Zhe said made sense.

He looked towards Wu Hen.

Wu Hen snorted coldly and said, “Of course. Or what do you take this place for? Could it be that you think people can mess around and throw wild tantrums here? Director Fang, have someone check to ensure that everything said and done here is under the police department’s case monitoring.”

Even if Jiang Zhe didn’t mention it, he would have insisted that Director Fang do so.

Could he really afford to miss an opportunity that could help his son obtain a confession?

“Since Director Fang and Chairman Wu have said so, I feel reassured,” stated Jiang Zhe calmly.

Jiang Zhe found a seat and sat down, with Qin Jingchen and Fen Ye standing behind her.

“I want to ask Wu Yingze why he drove his car and injured my classmate Xiao Meng yesterday,” Jiang Zhe said nonchalantly as she flipped through a document in her hand, her tone was unhurried, but there was already a hint of sharpness in it.

Qin Jingchen had asked Fen Ye to prepare the information last night, so as not to disturb Jiang Zhe’s sleep, hence he hadn’t given it to her until now.

“Jiang Zhe, stop beating around the bush! What classmate, what hit and run—what does that have to do with today’s issue?” Mrs. Wu had no patience to listen to irrelevant talk from Jiang Zhe.

“Yesterday, Xiao Meng was hit by a car at the Art High School. There were no cameras, no eyewitnesses, but now we have found his duplicate-plate car with his fingerprints on it, and satellite monitoring shows that he was coming down from the car when it was abandoned,” explained Jiang Zhe.

“Impossible! My son would never do such a thing! Besides, who’s Xiao Meng? He doesn’t even know him. Who knows if you’re not conspiring together?” exclaimed Mrs. Wu.

Although Wu Yingze was severely injured, his mind was still clear, and he slowly denied it, saying, “No, I didn’t do it, and I don’t know any Xiao Meng!”

Wu Hen pressured Director Fang, “Director Fang, you’ve been investigating all night and this is the only nonsense you come up with? What’s actually going on? When will you give me an explanation?”

Director Fang was in a difficult position; the incident between Jiang Zhe and Wu Yingze had happened in such a small, enclosed space, and there was no surveillance inside the bathroom, so no one knew what had happened.

As for the outside, there was also no footage of how Wu Yingze got inside.

The situation was at an impasse and truly difficult to handle.

“Alright, let’s not discuss the matter of Xiao Meng for now. Then I ask you, Wu Yingze, why were you in the women’s bathroom last night?” Jiang Zhe suddenly asked again.

“It was you who said you had something to discuss with me and wanted to find a place with fewer people around to talk. I trusted you, which is why I followed you in. How was I supposed to know you had ulterior motives?”

Wu Yingze spoke slowly, but every word and sentence was crystal clear.

Madam Wu immediately said, “What ulterior motives could there possibly be? My son is handsome and charming—there are plenty of people who like him. It’s just that Jiang Zhe, frustrated and angry at being spurned, attacked my son!”

Jiang Zhe didn’t speak, and neither did Qin Jingchen or Fen Ye, who stood by her side. They didn’t even show any particular emotions and both diminished their presence to the lowest.

She took out a bottle of chewing gum and didn’t actually take any gum out. Instead, she just leisurely shook the bottle back and forth. The soft sounds from within, as the gum pieces collided with each other and hit the bottle walls, were crisp.

Wu Yingze hadn’t suffered a head injury and was clear-eyed. At that moment, however, his gaze was captured by the bottle of chewing gum, watching it intently.

Gradually, his vision seemed to blur.

“Wu Yingze,” Jiang Zhe said in an even tone, not too light or too heavy, “where did the steel pipe come from?”

Her question provoked a scornful expression from Madam Wu.

Director Fang also shook his head inwardly. Wu Yingze, confident in the support from his family, had been very uncooperative when questioned last night.

Now, did Jiang Zhe expect to coax out any useful information with just a sentence?

That seemed too difficult.

“It came from my house. The last time the butler had the gardener replace the rusty fence in our garden, that was the steel pipe. I thought it was fun, so I kept it.”

Unexpectedly, Wu Yingze actually responded directly to Jiang Zhe’s question without any hesitation or pause.

Wu Hen and Madam Wu were both shocked, “Yingze? Yingze? What nonsense are you spouting?”

Jiang Zhe looked at Director Fang, “Director Fang, does this qualify as valid information?”

Director Fang had no choice but to immediately speak up, “President Wu, we will need to come to your house to confirm the origin of the steel pipe.”

The situation developed so quickly that Wu Hen and Madam Wu had no time to react.

If the steel pipe could be traced back to the Wu Family, Wu Yingze’s troubles would multiply significantly.

“Why did you drive into Xiao Meng? Why come after me for trouble?” Jiang Zhe continued to ask.

Madam Wu stepped forward to stop her.

Director Fang intercepted her, “Madam Wu, my apologies, but you can’t interfere with them.”

Director Fang had indeed been pressured by Wu Hen and Madam Wu before, not daring to go at the case with full effort, instead investigating in a way that favored Wu Yingze.

But now, with the lead on the steel pipe, and especially since they were at the police station with all recording surveillance turned on, Director Fang could no longer show partiality regardless of the circumstances.

Everyone then realized why Jiang Zhe had insisted on making sure the work surveillance was activated beforehand.

“Son, what’s wrong with you? Don’t talk nonsense!” Madam Wu shouted loudly, desperately trying to stop Wu Yingze.

If these words came from Wu Yingze’s own mouth, the consequences would be far too severe!
