But Qi Tongwei simply watched her perform quietly.
His eyes were calm and expressionless.
He slowly spoke after she finished speaking:
"Ms. Zhao Xiaoyan, this is the Public Security Bureau of Handong Province. We are interrogating you in accordance with the law."
"Please remember, you are now a suspect!"
"As for your other identities, they are not your shield, nor are they a pass to extra-legal privileges!"
"You'd better tell the truth about your problem!"
He picked up the recorder on the table and gently pressed the play button.
Zhao Xiaoyan's voice, filled with a desperate and ruthless tone, immediately echoed in the small interrogation room.
That was her clear conversation with Chen Jinmo in the warehouse.
"Miss Zhao, the person is right here."
"Six million was promised, shouldn't you deliver on that?"
"There's three million here. After it's done, you'll get the remaining three million. Now, keep a close eye on him and make sure nothing goes wrong."
The color drained from Zhao Xiaoyan's face instantly!
Her hands, resting on her knees, trembled uncontrollably, her meticulously manicured nails digging deeply into her palms.
Zhao Xiaoyan's emotions suddenly intensified.
He shouted, "Fake! This is a forgery! You're framing me!"
"I'm going to sue you! I'm going to..."
But before Zhao Xiaoyan could speak, Qi Tongwei interrupted her.
"Whom should we sue?"
"Who else can you sue?!"
"The evidence is right here!"
"The evidence will speak for itself!"
Qi Tongwei suddenly stood up and looked down at Zhao Xiaoyan, who was trembling all over.
Each word was like a verdict.
He began, "You are suspected of leaking state secrets, instigating kidnappings, sabotaging key national projects, and possessing a huge amount of unexplained wealth... No matter which one it is, it's enough for you to spend the rest of your life reflecting on your actions in prison!"
Zhao Xiaoyan was frightened.
I was terrified by the future Qi Tongwei described!
She is Zhao Lichun's daughter!
He's always been a privileged person since childhood! And now, he's going to spend the rest of his life in prison?!
Do not!
She doesn't want to!
Zhao Xiaoyan trembled with excitement.
Just then, the heavy iron door of the interrogation room was silently pushed open.
Zhao Dagong appeared at the door.
He was wearing a sharp dark suit, his face expressionless, as calm as a bottomless pool of water.
Zhao Dagong's gaze swept over Zhao Xiaoyan, whose face was pale.
There was no anger, no regret, only a deep weariness after the dust had settled.
But on the other side, when Zhao Xiaoyan saw Zhao Dagong come in, she was like a drowning person grasping at a last straw.
He said excitedly, "Dagong! Dagong, you're here! Tell them quickly! They've arrested the wrong person!"
"I've been framed! We're husband and wife! Please get me out of here!"
But on the other side.
Zhao Dagong didn't say a word.
They continued walking calmly.
Without stopping, he walked to the interrogation table and exchanged a glance with Qi Tongwei.
Qi Tongwei nodded slightly and quietly left with the recorder.
He gently closed the door.
Only Zhao Dagong and Zhao Xiaoyan remained in the interrogation room.
The air was so oppressive it was suffocating!
Zhao Dagong did not sit down, but stood a few steps away, quietly watching his wife with whom he had once shared a bed.
After a long time, he slowly spoke.
"Save you?"
"Xiaoyan, stop daydreaming. It's time to close the net."
Have you ever seen a fisherman throw his catch out into the sea?
"The game is over!"
Chapter 328 Zhao Xiaoyan confesses! Take action against Zhao Lichun!
Under the stark white light of the interrogation room.
The last bit of color drained from Zhao Xiaoyan's face.
She stared intently at Zhao Dagong, who was standing in front of her.
His lips trembled.
He looked at Zhao Dagong in disbelief.
"What...what do you mean?"
Zhao Dagong did not answer her question, but instead paced slowly in the interrogation room.
It emitted a clear and heavy echo.
Every step felt like stepping on Zhao Xiaoyan's taut nerves.
"What do you mean?"
Zhao Dagong stopped and turned to face her, his gaze fixed on the wall.
The voice was deep and calm.
Yet it carries a kind of all-seeing cruelty.
"What I mean is, Zhao Xiaoyan, from the moment you listened to your father and began to obstruct the pilot project, your fate was sealed today."
"You think you're saving the Zhao family? Saving your father?"
Zhao Dagong suddenly turned around, his gaze sharp as a knife, piercing the faint, wavering hope deep in Zhao Xiaoyan's eyes.
"You're ruining me! You're pushing your husband into an abyss of no return!"
"And you!"
"You, Zhao Xiaoyan, are nothing more than a pawn he uses in his last struggle, a discardable piece that he can easily throw away once it's used up!"
"He's just using you!"
"You're using me to blackmail me, using me, Zhao Dagong, as a shield!"
The words "abandon a child" are like a red-hot branding iron.
It was deeply etched into Zhao Xiaoyan's heart!
She shuddered violently and screamed, "You're lying! My dad wouldn't do that! He promised me!"
"He said he would protect me! Protect you, Dakung!"
“My dad would never lie! He’s always been a man of his word!”
And on the opposite side.
Zhao Dagong seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world, and a cold, mocking smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
"Protect me?"
"Protect you?"
"What can he offer to protect you? His current nominal position? Or his reputation, which has long been hollowed out and is now universally reviled in Handong?"
"You haven't come to terms with reality yet!"
Zhao Dagong took a step closer, and the immense pressure made Zhao Xiaoyan almost suffocate.
