Chapter 456
Lin Sisi's expression was very calm. After all, she had been in prison and had dealt with the police many times."This is my private business, and I refuse to answer," Lin Sisi said. "Since this involves my friend's privacy, I cannot tell you what happened to her, because it has nothing to do with my brother's car accident. If it hadn't been an emergency at the time, I wouldn't have just casually given the money to my adoptive mother. I just didn't expect that my good intentions would be maliciously speculated upon like this. Truly, no good deed goes unpunished."
Lin Sisi wore a bitterly disappointed expression. "If you suspect me, please show the evidence, and I will naturally cooperate with the investigation. But if you wrong me and frame me without evidence, I, Lin Sisi, will not just let you bully me like this."
Captain Li fell silent for a moment. "You are right. There is currently no evidence to charge you."
Lin Sisi breathed a sigh of relief, smiled, and stood up. "In that case, I will take my leave."
"I didn't say you could leave." Captain Li looked up and glanced at her. Seeing the displeasure on Lin Sisi's face, he looked at the chair, signaling for her to sit back down. "Regarding the car accident, we indeed haven't found the hit-and-run driver, so we cannot determine whether it was an accident or intentional..."
He said coldly, "But there is one thing we can be sure of, and it is because of you."
"What? I haven't been in contact with anyone recently. What did I do wrong now?" Lin Sisi felt somewhat irritated.
Captain Li replied, "Of course you did something wrong. Without your family's consent, you took a large sum of money to treat a friend, which by a twist of fate ended up with the Lin family. The Si family believed that the Lin family made you secretly take money from the Si family to support them, so they attacked the Lin couple, resulting in one minor external injury and one severe internal injury. It took two consecutive surgeries to save their lives, causing massive losses..."
At this point, seeing Lin Sisi's ugly expression, he added, "However, you disappeared during this time. Not only did you fail to explain the reason to the Si family, but you also let the Lin couple get beaten and only showed up now. If this matter isn't because of you, then tell me, who is it because of?"
Lin Sisi looked awful. She hadn't expected the Lin family to return the money in the blink of an eye either!
Originally, she had secretly taken out these two thousand yuan, thinking that by helping save Lin Xiao, the Lin family would be grateful to her.
Perhaps they would even choose to forgive her for their previous frictions because of this.
She knew the Lin family's personalities very well.
She also knew that the Lin family would definitely ask Si Nian for help.
Si Nian was rich, but she was far away in another town. Even if she could wire the money back, it would certainly take a few days.
By then, the Lin family would return this sum of money to her.
That way, she could secretly put the money back. The Si family wouldn't find out, and the Lin family would be deeply grateful to her—the best of both worlds.
But because of Liu Dongdong's appearance, she had neglected this matter, and her plans couldn't keep up with the changes.
Not only did things not develop according to her ideas, but it also caused the two families to become enemies, resulting in such severe consequences.
But no matter what, Lin Sisi never expected that the Lin family would actually call the police.
She had originally thought she was only brought in to cooperate with the investigation because of the incident with Lin Xiao.
She hadn't expected it to actually be about the money.
Yes, she hadn't discussed the money with her family in advance, but didn't they realize that the Si family never wanted her to interact with their poor relatives in the first place, let alone take out so much money to help them?
If it weren't for her, how could their son have been able to undergo surgery? He might have even been kicked out by the hospital.
Now that their son was better and discharged, they actually called the police to sue her.
Sure enough, she had thought too highly of them!
Lin Sisi felt furious. At this moment, she had only learned from Captain Li that the Lin couple had been beaten, but she believed that it was probably just her father misunderstanding things and feeling unhappy, which led him to find someone to casually teach them a lesson.
It definitely wasn't as exaggerated as Captain Li made it out to be, otherwise, how would they still be in the mood to call the police?
The more Lin Sisi thought about it, the more she felt that the Lin family were truly ungrateful wretches.
She said agitatedly, "Fine, it's all my fault then! If they were so capable, they shouldn't have accepted the money when their son had the car accident. Accepting the money on one hand and blaming me on the other—whatever I do is wrong. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have given the money. It serves them right if their son is crippled for life!"
Lin Sisi said angrily.
Actually, ever since her time in prison, some plots completely different from her past life would inexplicably pop into her mind.
The Lin family was no longer that ordinary Lin family; they would become very wealthy in the future. Although her brother was disabled, he would be highly valued by a big boss and have a boundless future.
Her two younger brothers would also be quite successful and would follow her every lead.
Lin Sisi was, after all, someone who had been reborn. When such strange memories appeared, not only did she not feel afraid, but she was even a little excited.
She thought it was the butterfly effect triggered by her rebirth.
But these things had clearly actually happened, yet after she was reborn and came back, it was as if all the outcomes and directions had changed.
And in this life, she wasn't living much more comfortably than in her past life either.
In her past life, she had married Zhou Yueshen. She lacked neither food nor money, and she didn't have to manage the three children much. At first, everyone envied her. But as time went on, Lin Sisi grew tired of that kind of life, finding it very meaningless. She didn't want to live her whole life in that remote countryside, acting as a stepmother to a group of dirty, gloomy children.
Therefore, in this life, she schemed desperately, wanting to run to the city and live the glamorous, wealthy life that Si Nian had in her past life.
She had obviously worked so hard, and she couldn't understand why her life had still turned out like this.
Si's Father and Si's Mother no longer felt guilty toward her, Fu Yang didn't have her in his eyes, and the Lin family avoided her like the plague. Although she had gotten into a university, no one thought she was that amazing. Everyone was praising Si Nian's achievements. She was like an ugly duckling; no matter where she went, she was always an ugly duckling and would never shine brightly like a white swan.
Captain Li continued to ask calmly, "Then why didn't you honestly tell your family the reason you took the money?"
Lin Sisi: "I..."
"Regardless, this matter started because of you. The Lin family has already filed a lawsuit against your parents for intentional assault. Since you are unwilling to speak, we can only resolve this through legal procedures."
Lin Sisi looked awful. "What will happen if we go through legal procedures?"
"Your parents' crime of intentional assault caused severe injuries to the victims. Under normal circumstances, they would be sentenced to a fixed term of imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years. I remember your father still holds an official position. I don't know if he truly believes that because he is in a high position, no one would dare to sue him, or if there is another reason he did such a thing. But as long as the Lin family does not agree to settle, we will continue investigating."
After speaking, Captain Li no longer looked at her ugly expression. At the end of the day, even if they couldn't find out who the instigator of Lin Xiao's car accident was, the Si family was finished.
Lin Sisi was a bit panicked at first, but upon hearing Captain Li mention her father's status, she breathed a sigh of relief again.
Since her father dared to do such a thing, he definitely had a backup plan. After all, he wasn't the one who actually got his hands dirty. As long as he denied everything, the police couldn't touch him.
Furthermore, the Lin family had no power or influence in this area, so how could they possibly compete with the Si family?
The only person who could help, Zhou Yueshen, was far away in another city. No matter how formidable he was, his reach simply didn't extend this far.
At this thought, Lin Sisi's fears completely vanished.
