Chapter 78: I Hope You Will Keep Up This Mulishness

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ms. Liu had gone on to introduce him to others; he was considered a henchman of the aristocrats. What happened tonight was unexpected. He was usually ruthless and smart, so he never expected to fall into a trap. To make it worse, it was at the hands of a woman! Even his backer was useless now.

Xing Shu tensed her legs, tuning out all the sounds. It was only when she heard messy footsteps outside the hall that she looked up and saw the three people who had appeared at the entrance of the police station. Her brows instantly furrowed.

Wu Minxia was the first to speak. She was so angry that her entire body was trembling. “What happened? You—a girl—got hauled to the police station because of a lovers’ tiff. If word gets out, how are you going to get married?!”

!!

Xing Linlin stood beside Wu Minxia and gently raised her hand to calm her down. “Aunt Wu, don’t be angry. Let’s get about the details first.”

Wu Minxia took a deep breath and looked at the man who was handcuffed on the other side. The man’s eyes darted around, especially when he saw Xing Linlin. He felt that she looked very familiar; he had seen her with Liu Chun before. The corners of his mouth curled up, and he felt that his chance had come. “This must be my mother-in-law, right? Xing Shu and I had a lovers’ tiff. Hurry up and persuade her to let it go. It won’t look good if this gets out.” He whipped out his cell phone and flipped through the photographs. “Xing Shu and I are usually very loving. But we had a fight and she called the police.”

Wu Minxia did not understand the ins and outs of the matter. When she saw so many intimate photographs—and the hooliganism of this man—steam came out of her ears. She raised her hand to slap Xing Shu.

Xing Shu raised her hand to stop her. “That’s enough.” Her tone was indifferent as her gaze passed Wu Minxia and landed on the man. “I hope you will keep up this mulishness at your sentencing.”

The man’s expression froze, and the hope that had risen slowly extinguished. This Xing Shu would ignore her mother’s wishes?

Xing Zewu—who was standing beside Wu Minxia—stepped forward and pried Xing Shu’s hand away. “I thought that you had already caused enough trouble. I didn’t expect you to be detained in the police station because of a man. You’ve embarrassed the Xing family! Take advantage of the fact that Cheng Xingyang doesn’t know about this yet and leave!” If others found out about this, Xing Shu would probably not be able to marry into the Cheng family. After all, Chen Ru was already dissatisfied with her.

Xing Shu’s wrist hurt from Xing Zewu’s grip. Her face was pale, and Xing Zewu shook her hand off forcefully. “Look at you now. You’re no different from those street hookers!”

Xing Shu was wearing a scarf around her neck and her clothes were in disarray. She was wearing slippers, but they did not notice the blood on the slippers.

When the police officers saw this, they hurriedly went forward and explained, “Madam Wu, you can’t blame Ms. Xing Shu for this matter. It’s not something that can be brushed off with a lovers’ tiff. This time, it involves the Cheng family.” He explained the matter and sighed. “We’ve already investigated the source of the one million yuan. It’s related to the Liu family. The suspect from the Liu family is on the way here. Moreover, we’ve also contacted President

Cheng. Cheng Corporation Group’s trade secrets are indeed in the USB drive.”

Wu Minxia did not expect things to be so messy. She almost fainted from anger at hearing Ms. Liu would be brought here for questioning. She had thought that it was a lovers’ tiff, but it actually involved the trade secrets of Cheng Corporation Group!

Xing Linlin had long known what had happened from Liu Chun. She said cautiously, “If Ms. Liu is brought here, word will definitely get around. Will the Xing family become enemies with the Liu family because of this? The Liu and

Nie families are very close. If this blows up…” She looked at Xing Shu worriedly.

“Why don’t we settle this privately? Xing Shu, you’re an employee of Cheng Corporation Group. If you lose a USB flash drive, there should be a backup in the computer. As for Ms. Liu, I’m friends with her. I will put in a good word for you and I believe she won’t take this matter to heart.”

It was clearly not Xing Shu’s fault. But Xing Linlin’s narrative made it seem like she was the one cleaning up the aftermath of Xing Shu’s mistake. Xing Shu looked at Xing Linlin with a faint smile.. “Why? Did the Liu family ask you to intercede?” 𝗳𝔯e𝒆𝙬𝘦𝙗𝓷o𝘷el.c૦𝑚
