"Is it reliable to find Old Wei?" In the face of benefits, who can say for sure? "We should definitely inform our dad about this."
"If you believe he’ll handle it calmly upon learning his things were stolen, then go ahead and tell him."
"What do we do if we don’t tell him?" Of course, i Shuping knew what kind of reaction the old man would have, but without ntioning it, how could they possibly recover those items? They didn’t even know what was stolen.
"The eldest and second brother are both here, great, I’ve brought the police with . You two can talk to them," said Chen Haichang, knowing that the i Family’s two sons wouldn’t dare to call the police, so he had no choice but to do it for them.
"What? Third Brother, why did you call the police?" i Shuping’s face turned cold when he heard the police were here; he stood up angrily and pointed at Chen Haichang.
"Wasn’t the house burglarized? If I don’t report it, are we just going to take the loss lying down?" Chen Haichang said, ignoring the police who followed him, and sat on the sofa by himself.
"How did you know the house was burglarized?" i Shuqing asked with a frown.
"I called the house this morning, and Aunt Wu answered. Once I learned about the burglary, I even went to the hospital to consult the old man. Eldest Brother, Second Brother, reporting it wasn’t my idea; it was the old man who told to. If you don’t believe , you can ask the old man yourself now. Oh... by the way, it’s no use going now. The old man was so angry he couldn’t speak, he’s still in the intensive care unit. I don’t think you should waste the trip; better talk to the police quickly."
"You told our dad?" i Shuping lifted his hand in anger, almost hitting him. Upon hearing this, it was clear the old man would be furious.
The items he hid were precious to him; he didn’t even allow the two brothers to look at them. You can imagine how he felt. Losing treasures he had hidden for most of his life so suddenly. It’s good enough that he didn’t get scared to death.
"I did it for the old man’s own good. With his things stolen, you planned to keep it a secret and not report it. Over ti, how else would you recover the items? Just now, when I passed by the gate, the guard who was on duty last night ntioned hearing soone suspicious."
"Who?" i Shuping imdiately asked, no longer concerned with Chen Haichang telling their father.
Since everything was known, discussing anything else was pointless.
"It’s not clear yet, just a suspicion. For the investigation, we need to rely on the police. I’ve already talked to the officers, right, officers? These are my two elder brothers, and they were the first to discover it. You can ask them anything you need to know."
i Shuping glanced at the two police officers who ca, realizing they weren’t people familiar with Old Wei.
i Shuping gave Xie Lingzhi a look, clearly indicating she should find a way to send the two officers away.
But i Shuqing first invited the two officers to sit. Though he knew the old man’s things were not legitimate, he also couldn’t just leave it unchecked. It had to be reported to the police. Despite wanting to find Old Wei, with Chen Haichang bringing the police, it’s not suitable to find Old Wei now. They could only wait to see how things developed. If the items were retrieved, and if they indeed were illicit, they must be surrendered and consequences faced.
He knew the old man probably hid those items to leave so good things for them younger ones, but as a soldier, he firmly would not accept those things.
If sothing really happened, he was willing to share the burden with the old man, but it couldn’t be secretly resolved this way.
i Shuping, seeing his brother talking with the police, slapped the table coldly, "Shuqing, do you want to ruin the i Family?"
"Big Brother, you should put yourself in the right position. The old man might be muddled; do you want to follow him in his confusion? This situation should be resolved as it should be. Don’t have any illusions; it’ll only harm us."
After i Shuqing spoke, Chen Haichang applauded, then looked at i Shuping and laughed, "Big Brother, I think you should let the second brother take over your position; it seems more appropriate for him to be the older brother. You’re not doing well in your role, unqualified, unqualified indeed." Chen Haichang spoke, shaking his head to himself.
This infuriated i Shuping to nearly overturn the table; none of them listened to reason. If sothing happened in the future, the i Family would be finished.
Watching the two introduce themselves to the police, i Shuping and his wife stood aside, their faces growing darker with each word.
