47 Closer Than Even Real Brothers

She had started learning martial arts not long ago so she was by no means an expert. Although not badly injured, she was not completely unhurt from the fight, and had almost been hit by the rock. 

Now that it had begun to rain, most of the evidence would have been washed away and no one would have known what really happened if she had been found dead in the alley. 

Jing Yunzhao had anticipated all this the moment the boy picked up the rock. 

Moreover, what Jing Yunzhao said made more sense compared to the boy's explanation earlier. Although the bruises on Lu Jia's cousins were obvious, the scratches on Jing Yunzhao's face and arms were just as visible. 

Jing Yunzhao definitely did not look like the one who picked the fight since it was one girl against four boys. 

"How can you be so shameless?! My nephew's life is now hanging by a thread and you are saying that you didn't do it? Did your parents not teach you how to behave? Who attacked my nephew if not you? My son? Officer, my son is extremely close to my nephews, they are closer than even real brothers!" Lu Jia's aunt yelled loudly. 

What a nice thing to say considering it was her son who stopped Lu Jia from calling the police as soon as the incident took place. 

Had he not delayed calling the police, the injured boy would probably be in a less critical condition than he was now. 

Lu Jia's aunt's son tried to look humble while the rest of the boys were shocked. 

"There is no way that my granddaughter would ask for trouble, officer!" Gan Songbo said fiercely from the back. 

Jing Yunzhao was touched by what Gan Songbo said felt grateful to him. 

Although they were god-grandfather and granddaughter now, they hardly knew each other, but Gan Songbo helped her out unconditionally and trusted her even though she could be involved in an assault or even murder. His attitude towards Jing Yunzhao was such that even a real grandfather could not compare. 

Jing Yunzhao felt overwhelmed, but so was Gan Songbo. 

He was very fond of the little girl who was passionate about medical knowledge, or he would not have helped her out time and time again. 

She had come to the police station twice within a short period of time despite only being a teenage girl. How was she going to live her life if she kept being suspected at a young age like this? 

She had no parents, and her days would be challenging if he as her god-grandfather did not help her out. 

"Grandpa," Jing Yunzhao called Gan Songbo, her eyes tearing as she stood up. 

"I know you have been wronged, Yunzhao. Do not worry, they will not be able to do anything to you if you are innocent," Gan Songbo said kindly. 

"She has been wronged? Look at what she has done to our children! One of them is actually in the hospital now!" The woman shrieked indignantly. 

"Tell Grandpa, Yunzhao, what happened?" Gan Songbo asked Jing Yunzhao after calming himself down at the lady's hurtful words. 

Jing Yunzhao told Gan Songbo the truth about how they bumped into each other and how the event unfolded honestly. 

Jing Yunzhao had a good memory and managed to recall everything from the beginning to the end clearly, including what each of them had said and did.
