Chapter 78 The Truth
Li Qi immediately yelled and pointed at her, "You're lying! When did we ever sell you cigarettes! We kindly saved you, why did you frame us on purpose!"

The more Li Qi said, the more emotional he became, and he wanted to go up to them to argue with them, but was stopped by the officers and soldiers.

Su Chengrui stepped forward to hold her back and persuaded, "Li Qi, calm down."

"How can I be so calm! These people are obviously in collusion, should we just let them pour dirty water on us?" Li Qi glared at the old man and shouted, "Our Li family has no grievances or enmity with you, who sent you Come! Speak!"

Facing her questioning, the old man lowered his head and remained silent.

Li Mao cupped his hands at the man who was drinking tea, "This little genius doctor, is this old man's illness really caused by smoking?"

The man paused as he drank his tea, and he pinched his chin and thought about it seriously, "It's hard to say. Although people who have had a stroke say they have hidden diseases, smoking is not the cause of their illness."

Zhou Gousheng heard the words and said quickly, "Here! Everyone heard it, the doctors said that this thing caused my mother-in-law to be like this!"

"You!" Li Qi wanted to step forward angrily, but his arm was pulled again.

"Sister, if you don't have the ability to understand, go back and read more books. People just say that there is a possibility. Do you know what possibility is?"

The woman's cold voice contained a bit of a teasing smile, like the cool breeze in the morning, blowing away the dryness in people's hearts.The originally noisy lobby suddenly became quiet.

The man raised his head curiously.

Zhou Gousheng was startled when he heard the words, and met the smile in Su Chengrui's eyes. It took a while to realize that she was mocking him, and immediately stood up angrily, "Who are you calling uneducated!"

"What about you! Can't you understand human language?" Li Qi sneered.

"Okay! Give me peace!"

The officers and soldiers slapped the table angrily, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet.She came to Li Mao with a sullen face, "Shopkeeper Li, since we have all the witnesses and evidence, I have to trouble you to go back with us!"

After she finished speaking, Li Mao's complexion changed, and two officers and soldiers behind her stepped forward to escort her to leave.

"Wait a moment!"

Su Chengrui suddenly said.

Seeing that it was her, the leading officer immediately raised his hand and coughed twice, came to her, and whispered in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them, "Miss Su, I know you have a good relationship with Boss Li, but our evidence is here after all." Come on, if we don't take her back first, it will be difficult for us!"

Su Chengrui nodded, "I won't make things difficult for you as you are doing business, but can you show me that cigarette again?"

"Of course you can."

The officers and soldiers handed over the cigarette case as they spoke.

Su Chengrui stretched out his hand to pick up one, looked at it carefully, and waved for the buddy to bring water and oil lamps.

Everyone was puzzled, not knowing what she wanted to do.

Su Chengrui explained to her with a smile on the questioning gaze of the officers and soldiers, "Thanks to Boss Li, he gave us a set of cigarette cases like this before the opening. In order to identify the authenticity of the cigarettes, she specially made them with special markings."

Zhou Gousheng was startled when he heard this.

After the waiter brought the water and oil lamp to the table, everyone gathered around curiously.Su Chengrui asked Li Mao to get the set she had kept, first immersed in water with Zhou Gousheng's one, and then slowly roasted it on the oil lamp.

Everyone was attentively watching with their eyes wide open, even Zhou Gousheng couldn't help poking his head.

Not long after, I saw a tiny purple number—"eight"—appeared on the wrapping paper where Li Mao's shredded tobacco and cotton wool intersected.

But Zhou Gousheng's one had nothing on it.

Su Chengrui pointed to the number on it and showed it to the officers and soldiers, "Your Excellency, you can see it clearly! Shopkeeper Li has produced twelve sets of cigarettes in total! Each set has the corresponding number painted on it with lotion."

She said and took the sales brochure from Li Mao, "Your Excellency, you can check it out, each set has a clear destination according to the number."

Hearing this, the officers and soldiers took over the sales brochures and began to look through them.

Su Chengrui looked at the two stunned figures beside the stretcher, raised his eyebrows and said, "As for where the cigarettes in this lady's hand come from, and why they are exactly the same style as this Qingfenglou, probably only this lady Only then did I understand it in my heart.”

Zhou Gousheng's complexion suddenly became ugly when he heard the words.

The officers and soldiers closed the booklet in their hands, raised the cigarette case in their hands with a sullen face and shouted sharply, "Where did the cigarettes in your hand come from! Tell me!"

Zhou Gousheng's body trembled from the roar.

The old man next to him was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground, "Your Excellency, see clearly, but the old man got the disease from smoking the cigarettes in Qingfeng Building, please, Sir, see clearly!"

Li Qi beside him gritted his teeth angrily, "Old fellow, you're still stubborn even now."

The officers and soldiers said with dark faces, "Old man, do you know that telling a lie to hinder the investigation is a felony!"

"I'm not lying! I beg your lord to see clearly." The old man kowtowed as he kowtowed.

"I can prove she's lying!"

Suddenly, a charming male voice came from the door.

Everyone looked around and couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw the red figure appearing at the door.

"It's Young Master Yingyue!"

"Why is he here?"

The man's outstanding appearance and temperament, like the bright colors of fire on his body, caught the attention of everyone present at the first glance.

Jiang Yingyue walked slowly, followed by a young man about thirteen or fourteen years old.The man had a handsome appearance, but he seemed a little apprehensive in the face of everyone's scrutiny, and his pale face could not hide the tiredness.

"mother!"

Seeing the old man kneeling on the ground, the man hurriedly called out.

The old man shook his body, raised his head in surprise, and couldn't help being excited when he saw the man, he staggered forward and said, "Yu'er!"

Zhou Gousheng's expression suddenly became extremely ugly.

Zhao Yu'er wiped away her tears and choked up, "Master Yingyue saved me and brought me here to find you."

Su Chengrui quietly came to Jiang Yingyue's side and asked, "What's going on?"

Jiang Yingyue smiled at her, and said slowly, "Yu'er's wife owed a lot of money to the casino, and the people in the casino used him to repay the debt and sold him to Tianxianglou."

As he spoke, he came to Zhao Yuer's mother and son, "Old man, I think your daughter-in-law should have allowed you. As long as you cooperate with her in this scene, you will redeem Zhao Yuer when you get money, right?"

The old man bowed his head in silence.

Jiang Yingyue took out a deed paper from her arms, raised the corners of her lips and said, "She probably never told you that Yu'er was sold to Tianxiang Tower to sign a death deed, right?"

"What! Death contract?"

The old man suddenly raised his head when he heard the words, grabbed the deed paper in his hand and looked at it, his eyes were full of disbelief.

"You bastard! How dare you lie to me, I...I'll fight you!" She turned her head and glared at Zhou Gousheng, then suddenly picked up a chair beside her and rushed towards her.

Zhou Gousheng was so frightened that he quickly got up and dodged left and right, saying, "Old guy! If you kill me, your son will become a widow!"

"asshole!"

The old man chased after her.

Zhou Gousheng was annoyed by being chased, he stretched out his hand to grab the chair that fell down, and pushed the old man away.

The old man was seriously ill and extremely weak, so he fell tremblingly to the ground after being pushed by her like this.
