Chapter 29 (2/2)
Li Xueqing did not have to go to school today. As soon as she arrived home, she heard the sound of the telephone ringing.
She picked it up without hesitation. “Hello.”
“Hello, is this Li Beinian’s family?”
Li Xueqing lost interest after hearing that they were looking for Li Beinian. “Is there a reason that you’re looking for her?”
“I’m calling from the Guang City Police Station. Miss Li has been detained by us for theft. Please make a trip to the police station.”
Upon hearing his words, Li Xueqing’s eyes glistened and she asked, “What? Li Beinian got arrested? Which police station is it?”
The policeman informed her of the address, after which Li Xueqing hung up and guffawed hysterically. “Indeed, a leopard never changes its spots. I must call Father to let him know.”
As soon as she dialed Li Haoran’s number, she was suddenly reminded of his attitude towards Li Beinian in the past few days.
Feeling extremely exasperated, she decided to call her mother instead after giving it some thought.
Fang Zhili was in the midst of playing mahjong with her friends when she received the call. She asked in bewilderment, “Is that true?”
“Of course it is!” Li Xueqing exclaimed with happiness written all over her face.
Fang Zhili laughed for a brief moment before saying, “Call the Mu Family and tell them to bail her out. Just tell them that your parents are not home.”
Li Xueqing’s eyes widened in shock and her heart pounded rapidly.
Regardless of whether the Mu Family goes to bail her out or not, they would definitely find out!
Li Xueqing laughed out loud at the thought of the possible consequences. “I’ll do it immediately!”
“Remember, your parents are not home. When your father asks about it, don’t say that I was the one who told you to do it. Just say that you weren’t thinking properly. Got it?”
