Chapter 21 Police station!

Lily Liu could not believe that after being kicked out of the Wen Family, after being imprisoned, Gwen was still faring better than her. Without further thinking, she threw out a made-up theory. Susan Zhang joined in her singing after a second of mind-absence, “Don’t say that; what sugar daddy are you talking about; it is Gwen’s freedom to choose her love; an old man is not such a bad option if he is rich.” Gwen turned around abruptly not believing in what she just spewed, “What did you just say? Come again?” Lily Liu felt a sudden fear at Gwen's piercing, unabashedly angry gaze, but her pride did not allow her to back off, “ He he, am I wrong?” As Gwen squinted at her, Lily poked again, "Or highly possible the money was not even given by him, but you stole it; otherwise, what kinda old man would lay an eye on you; I see, prison did teach you something, to seduce and steal.” Lily Liu was almost convinced by her own speculation, and out of the expectation of the shopping guide, she snatched the card from the her hand and examined it, “Auntie, I am pretty sure she has stolen it, there was not way she could have such valuable card.” Susan Zhang craned her neck to take a look; she eyeballs rolled fast as her brain started processing the information and soon she said with her voice dripping with sarcasm, “Gwen, as for the other things you have done, I don't care, but, if you steal, I can't turn a blind eye to that; you have left me no choice, I have to place righteousness above family loyalty!" Gwen frowned at their nonsense. " What evidence do you have of my stealing? The false accusations without evidence are punishable; aren’t you afraid of being thrown into the prison, where I have been in, for that.” "Evidence? This card is the best physical evidence!I am call the police now; you can explain to the officers!" Lily Liu's high-pitched voice attracted many onlookers. Lily Liu gave Gwen a look of victory, sneering, "Now, you're screwed!" Gwen did not argue. She had done nothing wrong and had nothing to fear. After a while, the police came and took them all to the police station for further questioning because of the large amount of money involved. "So, Gwen Wen, right? where did you get this card?" "Someone gave it to me." “Someone who?” "I don't know..." What had Gwen Wen got to say? Someone who broke into her room every night and tried to rape her? She did not even know his name or how he looked like! What she said might sound like a lie, but it was true. "......" Her reply was somewhat a humiliation to the police with their years’ experience in cracking down on tricky cases; "I'll give you one more chance, Gwen Wen," said the cops, "how did you get the card, Gwen Wen?" Susan Zhang added, "Did you hear that? She couldn't even tell a lie when she stole something. Just for your information, sir, she had been jailed three years ago for intentional murder. We... her family has disowned her because of this, and she has no family since she came out. Where else could she get the card besides stealing it!" “I did not steal it!” Gwen Wen said firmly again. "Didn't steal it? Then which old man gave you this card! how many times have you slept with him before he gave you a card of that value! Sir, if she did not steal it, then it must be pro...prostitution! That broke the law as well and is demoralization, right?” "Susan Zhang! Stop your slander! Do you really think everybody fawns on rich people as you did?" "You! How could you talk to me like that! It's a libel, and in front of the officers and I'll sue you!” "Enough! Be quiet, everybody!" The policeman ended their argument. "You two, go home first; Gwen Wen, since you can't tell me where the card came from, I will have to detain you on the suspicion of illegal possession of others’ property. You would sleep on it tonight in the station, and come clean to me tomorrow if you are ready to talk.” The police closed the confession book, handcuffed Gwen Wen, and got up to leave. Susan Zhang stood up triumphantly, grabbed her crocodile bag and swaggered her fat ass joyfully in front of Gwen Wen. "With such a valuable card, god knows how long you are gonna stay in here! Gwen baby, I would pull some strings and make sure you have a ‘happy’ time here." she said. Gwen Wen shuddered uncontrollably at the thought of “happy time here”; she clutched her knees more tightly than ever, wishing she could just rip the kneecaps that ached every night off her knees. She had been trying her best to avoid the Wens, yet they were just not ready to let her off! What the hell were they going to do! Was it really necessary to drive her to death? Looking at Susan Zhang's nasty face, Gwen slowly rose to her feet and wished she could strangle her with the chain of handcuffs.
