Shen Qingqing patiently made lunch, waiting for Fu Jing Shu to return to eat together, and after eating, she briefly explained the matter.
Fu Jing Shu was not surprised at all: "This is normal. Some people will go to great lengths to frame others."
It was just that her methods were quite unexpected, resorting to such a strategy of harming a thousand enemies while hurting eight hundred of oneself.
Shen Qingqing glanced at the time on her phone: "With Officer Wang and his team's efficiency, they should have caught the person by now. I'll go to the police station to join the fun."
"I'll drive you."
Fu Jing Shu had also finished eating and looked at the children who were still eating. "You two be good at home. Mommy is going out to handle something."
The two children nodded obediently. The identical twins, sitting side-by-side eating, looked even more adorable.
Before leaving, Shen Qingqing hugged the two children tightly, then kissed each of them before turning to leave.
Fu Jing Shu drove her to the police station and then drove to his company.
Shen Qingqing entered the police station with practiced ease, but she saw that the atmosphere in the hall was very heavy. Officer Wang sat in his chair, his back to the door, and everyone else was tacitly silent.
The atmosphere was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
Shen Qingqing was puzzled. Officer Wang's tone on the phone earlier had been so cheerful, why was he suddenly so dejected?
Could it be that they didn't catch the person?
But that didn't make sense either. How could a tall, frail woman escape from so many officers?
"Miss Shen, you're here." A young police officer next to her said, "We went to arrest Gao Fen, but unexpectedly, the other party seemed to have gotten wind of it and left home with her child. Even Mr. Gao doesn't know where they went."
Furthermore, she didn't even bring her identification, so they had no way to track her.
Shen Qingqing finally understood why Officer Wang's expression was so grim. She walked over and patted Officer Wang on the shoulder.
Officer Wang turned his head and, seeing it was her, his expression softened slightly. "You're here."
"I heard from Jin Yuan that it's really not a big deal," Shen Qingqing leaned casually against a nearby office desk, her slender legs crossed loosely.
"Don't stand there and speak without feeling the pain. You think it's nothing, but we mobilized the entire team to arrest someone and couldn't even catch a woman! It's so embarrassing!"
Although he was annoyed, he was more ashamed.
If he had been a little more decisive at the time and guessed that it might involve Gao Xu's mother, he would have sent people to guard the Gao family's door, and this situation would naturally not have occurred.
Shen Qingqing comforted him, "Don't think that way. It's not just you. Even I didn't expect that the mastermind would be her."
Officer Wang sighed, "To be honest, I didn't expect him to do something like this. What was she after? Wasn't she afraid of the kidnappers harming her son?"
Shen Qingqing smiled faintly.
But her smile carried a hint of sarcasm.
Madam Gao certainly wouldn't have this worry, as she had absolute certainty and confidence in the people she hired with her money.
She was really going all out to deal with Gao Jian.
Of course, she couldn't say these things to Officer Wang, as he wouldn't understand the thoughts of a psychologically twisted person like Madam Gao.
"If she wants to leave, she must need money," Shen Qingqing reminded him. "I think you should quickly discuss it with Mr. Gao and preferably freeze all the cards under her name!"
"That's a ruthless move," Officer Wang initially only wanted to use Mr. Gao to find out where Madam Gao's cards were being spent, but he didn't expect her to freeze the cards directly.
Shen Qingqing shook her head. "Officer Wang, if you don't freeze her cards, she'll use the money in them to move to different places, and you'll always be one step behind her. Are you planning to keep going back and forth with her?"
They couldn't afford to drag this out.
Officer Wang had too many things to do every day and didn't have that much time to waste on Madam Gao, so he gritted his teeth and made a firm decision: "You're right, I need to be more ruthless."
So, he immediately called Mr. Gao.
Shen Qingqing listened with a smile, looking harmless, which made everyone's scalp tingle.
It really was "the most poisonous heart of a woman."
However, after Madam Gao fled, it was basically confirmed that she was the mastermind, which was good news – Gao Jian was released.
When he came out, Mr. Gao, looking haggard and exhausted, went to pick him up.
The father and son stood at the entrance of the scenic area, looking at each other in silence.
Neither of them had expected so many changes to happen in just a few days.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward, so when Gao Jian saw Shen Qingqing, he felt a sense of relief.
He had never been so nervous even when interviewing at the hospital.
"Miss Shen, I have to thank you again this time. If you hadn't kept believing in me and been willing to help me out, I probably would have been imprisoned by now."
Gao Jian apologized sincerely.
Shen Qingqing smiled faintly. "No need to be so polite. I believe that with your character, you wouldn't do such a thing, so naturally, I had to help you."
As she said this, she glanced at Gao Yong.
Looking at it now, it was quite ironic. A friend she had known for less than three months was willing to believe in his character, yet his own father did not.
Gao Yong looked embarrassed but knew he had to make a statement. "I want to apologize to you. I was wrong before. I actually believed you did it. I should have known you wouldn't do such a thing."
Unfortunately, in Gao Jian's eyes, these explanations were all hindsight. If his father had spoken up for him even a little at the time, he wouldn't have been taken away by the police without any resistance.
"In any case, the truth is out now. It doesn't matter to me whether you believe me or not."
Gao Jian said it casually.
Gao Yong observed his expression and found that there was indeed no resentment or indignation on the young man's face, only a sense of ease and relief.
But the more nonchalant he appeared, the more guilt accumulated in Gao Yong's heart. "Don't be like this. It wasn't that I didn't believe you at first. It's just that your relationship with the family has always been strained. You and Ah Xu..."
When the child left home that year, he was like a rebellious teenager and had even vowed to make their whole family restless.
He never imagined that his son would later become a doctor, have his own life, and never return.
His impression of Gao Jian was still stuck on the rebellious back of him slamming the door and leaving all those years ago.
"People change," Gao Jian said, then turned to Shen Qingqing. "President Shen, you promised to arrange a dormitory for me before. Does that still count?"
"Of course, it counts," Shen Qingqing replied without hesitation.
Mr. Gao became anxious upon hearing this: "Why live in a dormitory? The house is so big with so many rooms. Come home and live!"
"No."
Gao Jian refused decisively.
