Chapter 497: Don't Act Smart

Mrs. Fang didn't stay arrogant at the police station for long.

Upon hearing from the police that they learned from Fang Lai'er that Fang Jian was gambling at an underground casino, she hurriedly dragged her eldest son away, looking dejected.

By the time the police went looking for them, the mother and son were long gone.

They must have gone to warn Fang Jian.

The police found it somewhat amusing; how could Fang Jian possibly escape?

The police returned to the interrogation room and informed Fang Lai'er of Mrs. Fang's actions, immediately prompting her to break into sobbing.

She must have realized by then that no one would help her anymore.

Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen exchanged a glance and still walked in.

Just as the police were leaving the interrogation room.

"Miss Lin, right? Fang Lai'er wants to see you."

Lin Zhiyi nodded; she still didn't know who was behind Fang Lai'er.

She turned to look at Gong Chen.

Gong Chen released her: "Go ahead. I'll wait for you outside."
