Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Chapter 794: The Incident (2)

Mu Chen immediately saw through Zhao Youming’s thoughts. He chuckled and said, “Of course, such a situation is relatively rare, but it’s not unheard of. Moreover, aren’t both you and the victim from Shalnork? If you’re both citizens here, why can’t you be tried here? Mr. Zhao, don’t worry. We will definitely investigate the truth of this matter. We will give you and Miss Yao closure.”

Zhao Youming was not comforted at all. The expression on his face only grew stiffer.

“By the way, as this case is a criminal case, we may need your cooperation in the near future. The police may send some people to your side. This is also for your personal safety.”

It sounded like they were spying on him. They were worried that he would run away at the last minute! Zhao Youming roared in his heart, but he didn’t show it on his face. He maintained a smile and said, “Of course, then... I’ll have to trouble you, officer.”

“There’s one more thing... regarding Miss Yao’s attack, it definitely counts as an intent to cause harm. I wonder if... you are interested in filing a lawsuit against Miss Yao for what she did?”

“This, of course...”

“I’m sorry, officer. We don’t intend to file a lawsuit regarding this matter.” Before Zhao Youming could finish speaking, a voice suddenly came from behind him, interrupting the conversation between the two.

“You don’t intend to?” Mu Chen was puzzled. Logically speaking, this matter involved another case. In order to better grasp the initiative, Mr. Zhao should seize the opportunity to file a lawsuit as soon as possible... why did he choose not to file a lawsuit instead?

It was the first time Mu Chen had encountered such a situation after handling so many cases. He was really puzzled.

What Mu Chen did not know was that Zhao Youming himself, of course, wanted to file a lawsuit. However, Zhao Youlin and the others did not intend to accompany him into this muddy water.

Zhao Youming turned his head stiffly to look at Zhao Youlin and the others. When he saw the former master’s expressionless face behind Zhao Youlin, he thought that the thing he was most afraid of had been confirmed. The former master stared at him with dignity. He reluctantly replied, “Then... I won’t press charges.”

Mu Chen nodded and put away the pen and paper in his hand. He smiled and said, “Thank you for your cooperation today. You can all go back now.”

Zhao Youming stood up with a pale face. He thought for a moment and couldn’t help but ask, “Then, Miss Yao...”

“Although you don’t intend to file a lawsuit against Miss Yao, her behavior has violated the law and she needs to be punished. She will be detained at the police station for a few days.”

“Oh, I see.” Zhao Youming immediately lowered his head. He had planned to look for that woman when he went back. His plan to find a breakthrough from her side had been ruined, just like that. Zhao Youming felt a little lost.

After Zhao Youlin and the others left the police station, the first thing they saw was Mu Tingfeng, who had just walked out of the car not far away.

Zhao Youlin was stunned for a moment. She smiled and walked over to him. “Why are you here? Didn’t you say that you have a contract to discuss today?”

“If I knew that there would be knife-wielding little girls at your anniversary celebration, I wouldn’t have gone to talk about any lousy contracts.” Mu Tingfeng, who had always been calm and composed, looked a little flustered and exasperated.

Zhao Youlin was stunned for a moment. She looked at Mu Tingfeng’s furrowed brows and the expression on his face. She could not help but burst into laughter. “How did you know that something happened at our company’s anniversary? Did you buy another of my staff members over to spy on me again?”

Mu Tingfeng sized up Zhao Youlin from top to bottom. When he saw how healthy and lively she was, he knew that there was nothing wrong with her. However, hearing her words, he could not help but feel helpless. “Your company has invited so many people for its anniversary celebration and such a big incident has happened. It’s impossible for me not to know.”

Invited so many people? Zhao Youlin frowned and quickly reacted. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Mu Tingfeng. “Ye Yan or Sirius, who told you?”

“What if I told you that they both did?” It was such a ridiculous notion to have a knife-wielding little girl that if the two of them had not repeated the exact same story one after another, he would have thought it was a prank.

Zhao Youlin rolled her eyes, unsurprised. “I’m not the one who was injured. Why would they call you?”

“Do they have to wait until you’re actually injured to tell me?”

Zhao Youlin heard the danger in Mu Tingfeng’s words and was embarrassed for a moment. She quickly changed her words, “Uh... I mean, since they already called you, why didn’t they clarify the entire tale? I neglected to tell you. I made you worry for so long for nothing.”

Mu Tingfeng’s expression improved a little. He reached out and touched Zhao Youlin’s head, letting out a sigh of relief. “It’s good that you’re okay.”

Zhao Youlin’s face turned red from his touch. She reached out and pulled his hand down from her head. “By the way, you haven’t told me why you’re here. Did you go to the company?”

Mu Tingfeng nodded. “Yes, I received a call from the two of them and immediately rushed to your company. However, I heard from the security guards that the two of you had been brought to the police station, so I came over.”

What Mu Tingfeng didn’t tell Zhao Youlin was that he had suddenly received a call when he was discussing a collaboration with someone. After he answered the call, he immediately ran out of the company and left the representative on their own. Therefore... the so-called important contract today had probably fallen through.

Although it was a pity, compared to Zhao Youlin’s safety, Mu Tingfeng had no regrets.

“I see.” Zhao Youlin believed Mu Tingfeng’s explanation and didn’t ask further.

Mu Tingfeng suddenly frowned and asked in a low voice, “Why are you at the police station?”

He had always been concerned about Zhao Youlin’s safety, but of all police stations, they had to be at this one. Mu Chen seemed to be here too. Did Zhao Youlin meet Mu Chen again? When he thought about it, the lines between Mu Tingfeng’s brows only deepened.

It would have been better if Mu Tingfeng had not mentioned it. Zhao Youlin felt a little depressed at the mention of it. “I’m not too sure either. None of us called the police. I don’t know why, but the police were too efficient today. Could it be Ye Yan and Sirius?”

Mu Tingfeng’s face darkened when he heard this. “The two of them know what to do. It can’t be them.”

Zhao Youlin thought about it and agreed. “Then someone must have panicked at the banquet today and called the police.”

Mu Tingfeng nodded, but he kept an eye out in his mind. It was never that simple.
