Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 726 - 719: Madam V5 (Part 3)

Bai Yiran became slightly emotional, "Even if I really am the fool the Li Family father and son said I am, does that mean fools don’t have human rights? Shouldn’t you have reported to the police as soon as you found me? Who do you think you are? Just because you say you want to detain me, I have to be detained?"

She looked at the police officer, at the village chief, and finally fixed her gaze on the town mayor’s face, "Is everyone here like this? No concept of human rights at all, doing everything based on their own ideas! If that’s really the case, you officials should really do something about it!"

Bai Yiran’s words made the village chief and the town mayor’s faces look unpleasant, and even the area police officer felt a bit awkward.

"Police officer, don’t listen to her talk nonsense!" Old Li slapped the ground, crying uncontrollably.

"I’m talking nonsense? Everyone here is a witness, do I need to make things up?"

Old Li stared with round eyes, "Then what about him hitting me! Police officer, I can’t even stand up, my bones are broken! And my son, look at him, covered in injuries, all beaten by them!"

"I hit you because you deserved it!" Leng Yichen’s eyes were cold and sharp, "When I arrived here, they were dragging my wife back. As a husband, faced with such a situation, shouldn’t I hit him?"

The police officer couldn’t immediately respond. If it were them, they’d probably take action too, right? It’s just that they are the people’s police and can’t promote violence, so they could only say blandly, "Violence doesn’t solve problems."

"So now, it’s not about you accusing my husband of assault, but about me accusing you of illegal detention. The facts are clear, the evidence irrefutable, so you better prepare for prison!" 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Upon hearing this, Old Li panicked. He just wanted to find a wife for his son, that’s all. He admitted that he started to have doubts that Bai Yiran might not be a fool, but he was stuck. His son liked her and insisted on having her as a wife, as a father he had to comply! Besides, he’d been longing to hold a grandchild for a long time!

The Li Family had been single heirs for generations; it couldn’t end with his generation! But his son was foolish, and their family was poor, no girl in the village was willing to marry him. Out of options, he conceived this bad idea, never thinking he’d end up in jail!

He couldn’t go to jail; if he did, what would happen to his foolish son?

Instantly, tears streamed down Old Li’s face, "Police officer, I won’t press charges, I won’t press charges!" Then he looked at Leng Yichen and Bai Yiran, "I won’t press charges against you, can you not press charges against me?"

"That’s not up to you!" The police officer said sternly; illegal detention is a criminal case, and if it meets the conviction criteria, Old Li is definitely going to prison.

Hearing the police officer say this, Old Li’s face turned ashen as he lay on the ground, weeping loudly, "I can’t go to jail, if I do, what will happen to my son?"

Mrs. Qiao, witnessing the situation unfold, began to feel unsettled. She thought if she just stuck to her story, there wouldn’t be any issues; even if she didn’t get the person, she’d get the money.

However, she didn’t expect the situation to be different from what she thought. These city folks were all very clever, and she couldn’t deal with them at all. Even Old Li, who was beaten, was looking at a prison sentence. Would her lies get her into trouble too?

Mrs. Qiao’s eyes darted around in their sockets; before the police could question her, she spoke up first, "Officer, we won’t press charges either. I made a mistake, Boss Leng has nothing to do with my daughter, he didn’t ruin her purity, I made a mistake... made a mistake..."
