The police questioned Gu Manli and her cronies again, and they all became dumbfounded. No matter how the officers asked, they just answered truthfully, and soon the nature of the case was clear.
Malicious fraud and slander.
Gu Manli and her entourage were all taken back to the police station, followed by many eager witnesses as well.

As they left the police station, Lin Ziran kept asking Ou Lan, "Do you really not know who that so-called gentleman is?"
Ou Lan shook her head, "I don't know."
Lin Ziran scratched her little chin in confusion and consternation, "Have you met any rich people recently?"
Ou Lan still shook her head, "I met Baili Mu, but he's as gentle as jade, it's impossible for him to do something so ostentatious."
