His eyes were filled with murderous intent. The director was stunned and immediately changed his mind.
"No, it's not a misunderstanding. It was Xu Tao who attempted rape. We will definitely enforce the law impartially."
Only then did Zhuo Yuan's face calm down.
"Good work."
The situation suddenly changed. Xu Tao and his brother on the side did not know what was going on and were handcuffed.
Charges such as "rape...and fighting..." have been detained.
Zhuo Yu'an didn't stay at the police station for a second longer. He grabbed Shu Tinglan's hand and walked out. There was already a car outside to pick him up.
"Mr. Zhuo, this way."
They got in the car and Zhuo Yu'an reported the address. It was the hotel he had booked.
"I'm flying back to Senzhou in the evening. Can you take me back to my hotel? I'll take my luggage to the airport." Since everything is fine, Shu Tinglan just wants to leave Qining as soon as possible. He has nothing to do with the place where he grew up.
Good impression.
"Tomorrow is Saturday, refund your ticket and stay with me in Qining for two days."
Shu Tinglan wanted to escape from Qining as soon as possible, fearing a long night and many dreams, but he was extremely calm.
Seeing that Shu Tinglan did not agree, he turned to look at her: "Shu Tinglan, I just saved you."
"I just saved you." His eyes were finally no longer as gloomy as before, but looked at her sternly.
Shu Tinglan instantly understood what he meant, asking her to be grateful and not to burn bridges. She originally felt that Qining was not safe and wanted to leave Xu Tao's sphere of influence as soon as possible, but when she thought about the director's attitude towards them turning 180 degrees at the police station just now, she must have
Uncle Zhang, whom he called on the phone, is not a nobody. He is at least safe in Qining these two days.
"Okay." She relaxed.
The hotel Zhuo Yuan booked is the largest five-star hotel in Qining, and it is also a presidential suite on the top floor. It is luxurious and highly private. After coming out of the exclusive elevator and stepping on the soft carpet, Shu Tinglan has been
The tense heart finally relaxed.
From the teahouse to the police station, and even just now, she just relied on the tone of her heart to hold on. She was not as fearless as she looked on the outside. The places where Xu Tao touched had already been crawling like hundreds of insects, making her feel sick.
.
Zhuo Yu'an was walking in front. Before entering the door, he suddenly stopped and looked back at Shu Tinglan.
"If I go a step late today, do you know the consequences?"
"I know, but that's where the job is." She nodded. If Zhuo Yuan hadn't fallen from the sky today, her life might have been ruined. She was forced by Xu Tao and had no way to complain.
"Thank you for today." She is very slow-mouthed when it comes to human relations, and is particularly bad at expressing emotions. The word "thank you" is all she can say. But she keeps everything in her heart.
Zhuo Yu'an didn't know what he was thinking of, and his face changed again, as if he was angry.
"Shu Tinglan, why did you go to the appointment even though you knew there was danger? Today, if I hadn't changed my flight ticket and returned home early, hadn't come to Qining, or hadn't seen the positioning of your circle of friends, what would you have done?
What if something happens to you? Will Hongzheng Law Firm give you an award? Or will Director Xiao compensate you? You don’t call it conscientious at work, you call it stupid. All behaviors that ignore your own safety are extremely stupid..."
He originally had a lot of words to curse, but when he saw Shu Tinglan's eyes turning red, he swallowed them back.
"come in."
He opened the door and went in, then went straight to the bathroom, put hot water on Shu Tinglan, and ordered
"To take a bath."
Shu Tinglan obediently entered the bathroom, and the moment she closed the door, all the tense emotions and fears came rushing back. She washed herself over and over again, then hid in the bathtub and soaked for a long time. Until her body turned red, she slowly came out and her emotions
It has also recovered as before.
The yukata she wore was a bit too big and wrapped loosely around her. Her fair skin was slightly pink, and her whole body looked frail.
Zhuo Yu'an was on the phone on the balcony of the living room. When he heard the noise, he looked back at her and frowned. He didn't know whether he was angry with her or the person on the other end of the phone.
The call was from his father Zhuo Hong, who was majestic and serious, questioning
