CHAPTER 31: CHAPTER 30: WHO BULLIES WHO

Looking at the caller ID, Wei Xueqing took a deep breath, adjusted her state, and put on a smile as she answered the phone, "Hello, darling!"

"Darling, did you miss me?" Ye Xin said on the other end of the line.

Wei Xueqing laughed and said, "Of course I did, you heartless guy. You come back and don’t think of seeing me first, just running off to find some man!"

"What do you mean find some man, that’s my husband, okay!"

Wei Xueqing pursed her lips, not believing Ye Xin’s words, and said, "Alright, I have something to do now, talk to you later."

"Don’t! Where’s Yang Chen? I’ve called him but he didn’t answer, isn’t he your bodyguard? Let him answer the phone!"

Wei Xueqing looked troubled and glanced around, there was no sign of Yang Chen anywhere.

Hearing Wei Xueqing’s silence, Ye Xin became immediately alert and asked, "What’s wrong? Where did he go?"

Wei Xueqing bit her lip, struggled with her thoughts, and finally decided to tell Ye Xin, "Xinxin, I’ll tell you, but don’t worry!"

"Just say it first!" Ye Xin’s voice turned cold.

Wei Xueqing explained the whole situation.

Ye Xin listened, her eyes flashing coldly, and said in an icy tone, "Are you saying my husband was beaten up and taken to the security bureau?"

"That’s right, I’m sorry, it’s because of me that Yang Chen..."

Ye Xin laughed and said, "This little thing, you can handle it right?"

"No problem, I’ve brought a lawyer already."

"Good, I trust you!"

After speaking, Ye Xin hung up the phone.

After hanging up, Ye Xin’s expression turned cold.

Her lips parted to utter two names: "Brother Long? Zhang Shaoting? Heh!"

If anyone were there, they would certainly see the murderous intent in her eyes!

...

"I am Yang Chen’s lawyer, I need to see him now!" Lawyer Sun said to the security officer.

The security officer looked conflicted, Captain Gu asked him to come outside a while ago, but there had been no movement since. Knowing Captain Gu’s character, it probably wasn’t anything good.

Now that the lawyer had come, how should he explain?

Thinking it over, the security officer told Lawyer Sun and the arriving Wei Xueqing, "Please sit here for a moment, I’ll go call him!"

After calming down the two, the security officer walked to the interrogation room.

He stood at the door and listened. There was no sound from inside.

He knocked on the door and shouted, "Captain Gu, all done?"

He called a couple of times but got no response, and the security officer muttered to himself, also praying that Captain Gu wouldn’t mess things up. The lawyer is here; if they see their person beaten black and blue, it would be hard to explain.

This kind of thing wasn’t the first time. Since Captain Gu took office, he had already beaten several people, and because of it, had been disciplined multiple times!

The security officer dared not delay, pushed the door open, and went inside.

But as soon as he opened the door, it was pitch black inside!

The security officer was startled and quickly turned on the light!

Click!

The light came on, and both Gu Xijun and Yang Chen instinctively closed their eyes.

Seeing the scene inside, the security officer was dumbfounded.

These two people...!

"I’m sorry!" The security officer’s heart pounded wildly. He shouted, slammed the door shut with a thud.

The shout startled both of them.

Only then did Gu Xijun realize their awkward position; her face turned beet red.

"Get up!" Gu Xijun’s face was so red it seemed about to bleed, and her eyes filled with a misty gaze.

From childhood to adulthood, she had always been seen as a tomboy, no man daring to bully her like this, let alone touch her in this way. Yet today, she had held such an ambiguous position with a stranger for so long...

The thought made Gu Xijun feel like throwing herself into a river to drown.

Moreover, to be seen by her subordinate in such a way, how could she face anyone in the bureau again?

The more she thought, the angrier she became, and tears almost welled up.

Yang Chen feared nothing in this world except seeing women cry.

Seeing Gu Xijun about to cry, he quickly got up, awkwardly turned around, and tidied himself up.

Gu Xijun stood up, glaring at Yang Chen, "I’m telling you, this isn’t over!"

Having said that, Gu Xijun turned around and stormed out, slamming the door behind her.

The security officer saw the excitement in Gu Xijun’s face and asked, "Captain, do you know him?"

"I don’t know him!" Gu Xijun glared at the security officer and threatened, "I’m telling you, if you dare to talk nonsense, watch your head!"

"Uh!" Naturally, the security officer knew Gu Xijun’s methods and immediately promised, "Rest assured, I won’t utter a word!"

"Hmph!" Gu Xijun snorted coldly, striding away.

Only then did the security officer remember to chase after her and shouted, "Yang Chen’s lawyer is here, what should we do?"

"Let him go!" Right now, Gu Xijun didn’t want to see Yang Chen for one more second.

"Let him go?" The security officer had a strange look on his face, pondering something.

After considering for a moment, the security officer shook his head and returned to the interrogation room. Opening the door, he told Yang Chen, who was lost in thought, "Your lawyer is here, you can leave now!"

Yang Chen nodded quietly, scenes of Gu Xijun’s panic-stricken, misty-eyed face still flashing through his mind.

Walking out of the interrogation room, the security officer led Yang Chen to the lounge where Wei Xueqing and Lawyer Sun were waiting.

Seeing Yang Chen, Wei Xueqing was overjoyed. She stood up worriedly and asked, "Are you alright?"

"I’m fine!" Yang Chen shook his head lightly.

"That’s great, they didn’t give you a hard time, did they?" Wei Xueqing asked.

Yang Chen’s expression grew odd. It wasn’t so much that he was bullied, but it was hard to say who bullied whom.

"No!"

"That’s good!" Wei Xueqing exhaled in relief, nodding.

Lawyer Sun nodded and said to the security officer, "We’re taking Yang Chen with us, are there any other formalities?"

"No, no more!" The security officer quickly waved his hand.

The statement had been recorded, and the facts were clear; Yang Chen shouldn’t have been detained.

The final result of this matter was that the twenty young thugs faced punishment and fines.

In the car, it was still Yang Chen driving.

Lawyer Sun took a taxi back, so Wei Xueqing was still sitting in the passenger seat.

"Thank you for today. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have been involved in such trouble," Wei Xueqing said as she looked at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen kept his eyes on the road ahead, calmly saying, "If it weren’t for your trouble, I wouldn’t have found this job."

"..." Wei Xueqing discovered that Yang Chen was still so annoying. The little bit of gratitude she had just felt completely vanished!

After a while, Wei Xueqing said to Yang Chen, "After you drop me at the company, you’d better go home first. Ye Xin just called looking for you."

Ye Xin?

Yang Chen thought for a moment and shook his head, "No need, I’ll call her back later."

"Suit yourself!"
