Su Chen of this life understood exactly what Su Zhenxing meant by saying that to him.

However, Su Chen clearly remembered that in his previous life, the moment Su Qiqi cried out that he had stolen the watch, Su Zhenxing had immediately convicted him of being a thief. He had never once said, "A family's shame should not be aired publicly." Even later, when the Su family members intentionally or unintentionally mentioned this incident in social circles, Su Zhenxing had never uttered "A family's shame should not be aired publicly," allowing the reputation of him being a thief to spread further and further, reaching more and more people, ultimately turning him into someone universally disliked, hated, and isolated.

Now, the thief had become Su Qiqi, and Su Zhenxing suddenly knew about "a family's shame should not be aired publicly"?!

Heh, heh.

Su Chen of this life would not let Su Zhenxing dictate things anymore.

Not only would the hat of a thief be firmly placed on Su Qiqi's head, but Su Chen also intended to make Su Qiqi's reputation as a thief spread far and wide.

Su Chen was determined to make Su Qiqi taste this kind of suffering.

But Su Chen knew that he couldn't call the police from within the Su family. Su Zhenxing would definitely rally other Su family members to stop him from reporting it.

Therefore, he could only run out of the Su family and then call the police!

Once outside the Su family, who would stop him from calling the police?!

Su Chen knew that even if he called the police, given the Su family's power and status, this matter would ultimately be smoothed over by the Su family, and Su Qiqi would not truly face any punishment.

However, Su Chen's goal was not to have the police truly sentence Su Qiqi.

The crimes Su Qiqi had committed against him in his previous life, Su Chen would avenge himself.

Su Chen's goal was simply for the police to respond and come to the Su family to investigate. This way, the second daughter of the Su family, Su Qiqi, stealing her father Su Zhenxing's watch would have a police report. Moreover, this incident would surely spread as a bizarre tale. Then, he would do some more publicizing for Su Qiqi.

This hat of a thief would absolutely shine with a halo and follow Su Qiqi for the rest of her life.

Su Chen pretended not to hear Su Zhenxing's words. He painfully tugged at his hair, lowered his head, put on a pained expression, hunched his body, and let out painful roars.

"Su Qiqi, stole the watch!"

"Su Qiqi, not only stole the watch, but also framed me for stealing it!"

"Su Qiqi, why did you frame me like this!"

"Ahhhhhhh!"

"I feel so terrible!"

Roaring, roaring, Su Chen let out a great shout and leaped, breaking free from the encirclement of the Su family members, and ran towards the Su family's main gate.

The Su family members were all dumbfounded!

What madness was Su Chen throwing now?!

Once outside the Su Family Villa, Su Chen immediately took out his phone and called the police, stating that a Patek Philippe watch worth five million yuan had been stolen from the Su family.

Before the police arrived at the Su Family Villa, Su Chen took another photo of the Patek Philippe watch in his hand and posted it on Weibo.

"Is it the collapse of humanity, or the decay of morality?"

"Hai City's richest family's stolen 5 million yuan watch was actually committed by the family's second daughter, Su Family?!"

Facing the report from Hai City's richest family, and a theft case worth 5 million yuan, the Hai City police responded quickly. Within 15 minutes, a police car was already speeding towards the Su Family Villa.

Su Chen, waiting at the villa entrance, immediately stepped forward to greet them.

Two police officers alighted from the police car. One was around forty years old, and the other was a young man in his twenties.

A typical veteran training a rookie.

The old police officer's sharp gaze fell upon Su Chen.

A student in a high school uniform.

"You are Su Chen? Did you call the police?"

Su Chen put on a pained expression and nodded, gesturing for the police to enter the Su Family Villa.

"Yes, I called the police. My dad, Su Zhenxing's, watch was stolen. It's worth 5 million yuan."

The police officer nodded and didn't ask further questions, instead following Su Chen into the Su Family Villa.

After all, Su Chen was still a high school student. It was better to communicate with the adults of the family about such matters.

As Su Chen led the police into the Su Family Villa, he saw that the Su family members were already seated on the sofa. While they weren't exactly laughing and chatting, it was undeniably a warm scene.

Su Qiqi was crying in Liu Yanran's arms, and Liu Yanran was gently patting Su Qiqi's shoulder to comfort her. Su Lili and Su Mu stood beside Su Qiqi, whispering words of comfort.

As for Su Zhenxing, he sat on another sofa, silent. He neither comforted Su Qiqi nor reprimanded her.

Seeing this, Su Chen truly smiled.

This group of people wanted to let this matter slide easily!

Had they asked him, the wronged party?

Had they obtained his consent, the wronged party?

Su Chen immediately wailed loudly.

"Dad, the police are here!"

"Don't make things difficult!"

"Let's listen to the police. Let them decide how to sentence it!"

"After all, Su Qiqi stole your watch worth five million!"

"Five million!"

"What an expensive watch!"

"No matter how much Su Qiqi likes this watch, she can't steal it!"

As Su Chen's voice echoed through the roof, the Su Family members saw the two police officers following Su Chen into the house and were stunned.

They were really police officers!

The police had actually come!

No one had expected Su Chen to actually call the police!

So, Su Chen had run out earlier to call the police?!

Immediately, Su Zhenxing became furious.

He had just told Su Chen not to call the police!

Yet, Su Chen had brought the police here instead!

Su Chen clearly wasn't taking his words to heart!

Meanwhile, Su Qiqi trembled with fear.

Would the police really arrest her?!

It was just a family squabble, why were the police taking it seriously and coming to the Su Family's house?!

The police stepped forward from behind Su Chen and solemnly promised Su Zhenxing.

"Mr. Su, please rest assured."

"We will definitely treat this case as a top priority case at our bureau."

"No matter who so madly stole your watch, our police station will definitely apprehend the culprit as soon as possible."

Seeing the solemn expression on the police officer's face, Su Zhenxing choked. Just as he was about to explain to the police officer that it was a misunderstanding.

Su Chen quickly rushed over, grabbed the police officer's hand, and praised him with a smile.

"The police officers in our Hai City are truly excellent!"

"Their attitude and capability are among the best in the country."

"However, officer, please don't worry."

"Thief, our Su Family has already caught them, red-handed."

"Police Officer, you just need to follow police procedure and take them back for questioning."

As he spoke, Su Chen grabbed the stunned police officer's hand and walked over to Su Qiqi. He pointed at Su Qiqi and righteously reported to the police officer.

"Police Officer, it's this woman, Su Qiqi, who stole Dad Su Zhenxing's watch."

"I saw it with my own eyes. Su Qiqi audaciously put the stolen watch into her pocket."

"And I discovered it."

Su Chen raised the watch in his hand, signaling to the police officer.

"Police Officer, this is the stolen watch."

"Police Officer, the thief and the stolen goods are all here."

"Please uphold the law and take the thief and the stolen goods back to the Police Station."
