Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 732 - 725: I Am Clean (Part 4)
After Bai Yiran’s emotions slightly stabilized, Leng Yichen took her out for a simple meal and prepared to depart.
He had already entrusted the local matters to the lawyers; neither he nor Bai Yiran needed to appear in person for such trivial matters.
At the hotel entrance, five cars were parked in order, and men in black suits stood in rows at the entrance waiting for Leng Yichen and Bai Yiran to come out.
The townspeople had never seen such a spectacle; the hotel entrance quickly became a scene for people to stop and watch, with some even taking photos on their phones.
The town’s police station was right across from the hotel, and as Leng Yichen and Bai Yiran came out, they arrived just when Xiao Qiao and Mrs. Qiao were being called in for questioning by the police.
Seeing Leng Yichen, Mrs. Qiao couldn’t hold back and rushed over, but was blocked by the men in black suits. Helpless, Mrs. Qiao could only kneel before Leng Yichen across the men in suits.
"Boss Leng, I beg you, I spoke impulsively and made the wrong remarks. Please be magnanimous and don’t hold it against us, alright?"
Xiao Qiao followed closely, standing behind Mrs. Qiao and crying continuously.
Leng Yichen ignored them, pulled Bai Yiran’s hand, and got into the car, which promptly drove away.
Mrs. Qiao and Xiao Qiao didn’t even get the chance to speak with Leng Yichen, only able to run after the car, "Boss Leng! I beg you!"
The car sped away, and the Qiao Family mother and daughter couldn’t catch up with it at all.
The people in town somewhat knew about the incident that occurred in the nearby village last night; now watching Leng Yichen treat the Qiao Family mother and daughter this way made them feel he was somewhat cold and heartless.
What they didn’t know was that what truly angered Leng Yichen were not the antics of the Qiao Family mother and daughter but rather Xiao Qiao’s failure to report seeing Bai Yiran in the mountains.
Handing the matter over to the lawyer was already him showing mercy, otherwise, it would have further embarrassed the Qiao Family mother and daughter.
Xiao Qiao cried as she watched Leng Yichen’s car disappear, knowing it was her overestimating herself, longing for a man that was never meant for her, which led to punishment in the end.
After returning to the city, Leng Yichen didn’t take Bai Yiran straight home but instead went to the hospital for a full check-up on her. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
The doctor professionally bandaged Bai Yiran’s wounds again and administered an antibiotic injection.
Besides the external injuries, her body was in no serious condition, and the hit on her forehead didn’t harm her brain.
After receiving the doctor’s professional reassurance, Leng Yichen finally felt relieved.
Once back from the hospital, the two also went to the police station to explain the course of events to the authorities.
When the police learned Bai Yiran had escaped on her own, they were astonished. First, by Bai Yiran’s calmness, intelligence, and courage in handling the matter, and secondly, by Wu Chengzu’s unexpected kindness towards her.
Not long after, Gao Sheng, hearing the news, also arrived.
"Caught them?" Bai Yiran directly asked.
Gao Sheng knew she was asking about Wu Chengzu and shook his head, yet his tone remained bright, "Though we haven’t yet, we’ve pinpointed their location. Now Wu Chengzu and Yao Zhiqing are fighting like cornered beasts; it won’t be long before we bring them to justice."
Hearing Gao Sheng say this, Bai Yiran finally felt at ease. She feared hearing the news of Wu Chengzu successfully escaping, for it would cast a shadow of unease over countless days and nights for her and Leng Yichen in the future.
