After Rebirth, My Fiancé Helps Me Avenge the Wicked Scum

Chapter 167: Can’t Call the Police
Even if Li Chunhua were to report now that Jiang Mengyu stole her belongings, no one would believe her.
Neighbors would testify for her: She only took her textbooks and didn’t take anything belonging to the Jiang Family!
Jiang Haidong asked, “Could it be that your iron box was stolen long ago and you didn’t notice?”
Li Chunhua shook her head, “I checked it last night.”
Jiang Haidong said, “Could it be that you let your daughter take the box away?”
“Impossible!” Li Chunhua flatly denied.
Li Chunhua is a very selfish person.
She was originally a concubine’s daughter born to a servant who also had an affair with a subordinate, so the Li family did not acknowledge her. Her status at home was just like a servant, and it was only due to her elder brother Li Baoxiang’s kindness that she had a relatively good life.
After her mother’s death, when the matriarch wanted to sell her to a brothel, it was her elder brother, Li Baoxiang, who saved her.
It can be said that her brother saved her life, and she was always very grateful to him. That’s why Li Baoxiang felt assured to entrust the treasure to her.
However, in the end, she not only schemed against her elder brother’s treasures but also exposed him.
Therefore, Li Baoxiang was heartbroken, and one could say, he was angered to death by her.
Yet, she killed her life-saving elder brother without any sense of guilt.
The iron box was Li Chunhua’s treasure; she would check it every night but wouldn’t let her husband and children even glance at it.
Until her last breath, she would not pass the box to her daughter.
“In that case, go report it to the police,” Jiang Haidong said.
But Li Chunhua exploded like a cat whose tail had been stepped on: “We can’t call the police!”
“We can’t call the police,” Li Chunhua said weakly, “you forgot, before she left, she moved her belongings to the courtyard for me to check, forcing me to admit she didn’t take anything that belonged to my Jiang Family.
Moreover, she even had our neighbors testify for her. Calling the police would be very unfavorable for us.”
Actually, Li Chunhua wouldn’t call the police because the contents of the iron box shouldn’t be revealed.
Because she can’t reveal the source of the items—it belonged to her maternal family’s elder brother!
Although her maternal family’s elder brother had passed away, his children were still around.
Back then, she firmly denied receiving her maternal family elder brother’s iron box; now if she called the police over this iron box, her maternal family elder brother’s family would not let her off!
“If not calling the police, then what do you suggest we do?” Jiang Haidong was getting impatient: “Should we just forget about the iron box?”
“How can we possibly forget about it!” A malicious glint appeared in Li Chunhua’s eyes: “My precious iron box, it’s highly likely that sneaky wretch stole it.”
Jiang Haidong couldn’t believe it: “She even let you inspect—”
“She’s too clever for her own good.”
Li Chunhua clenched her teeth: “Had she not intentionally let me inspect, I might still have doubts and think I wronged her. But her intentional inspection exactly proves she took the iron box.”
Although Jiang Haidong didn’t agree with Li Chunhua’s reasoning, he also harbored some doubts: “Could it be because you usually emphasize checking every night before bed that she became aware?
So, after you checked the treasure box last night, she waited for us to fall asleep and stole the treasure box. Today’s visit was merely to divert attention.”
“Highly likely.”
Both didn’t believe the items were stolen by Mengyu today.
Both of them, with their four eyes watching, if it really was stolen by Mengyu, it would be a disgrace for them.
