"Officer, what cri has my son committed? You can’t just arrest him for no reason. We are respected people in Yancheng, what you’re doing, how is my son supposed to face anyone after this?"
The young officer sitting opposite the Qiu couple was at a loss for words.
Why was it always his job to calm down the family mbers?
"Mrs. Qiu, please calm down..."
"How can I calm down? Don’t you know how much charity work our company does every year? You should at least rember the good that our family does, right? We’re an outstanding enterprise, and you just arrest people without any reason..."
"There is a reason!" the young officer responded helplessly.
"Then what exactly has my son done? You have to give an explanation today, or I’ll stay here tonight and refuse to leave. I’ll even file a complaint against your police station for mishandling the case."
The young officer: "..."
If they were an outstanding enterprise, couldn’t they be a bit more reasonable?
At that mont, the officer’s superior ca over, leaned in, and explained to Mrs. Qiu, "Your son hired soone to abduct a girl, and she’s in the hospital right now. The kidnappers have all confessed, and we’ve also obtained evidence that your son hired the hitn. Now do you understand?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Qiu was dumbfounded and quickly denied it: "You must be mistaken. How could my son possibly..."
"Whether it’s possible or not, the evidence will speak for itself. We live in a lawful society. How narrow-minded does a man have to be to harbor a grudge and inflict such harm on a girl?" The burly captain questioned Mrs. Qiu. "I don’t care how outstanding you claim to be, if you break the law, you will be severely punished."
"Impossible!" Mrs. Qiu slamd the table and stood up. "You’re slandering us, I will find the best lawyer for my son."
"Okay then!" the burly captain said, "But I’m sorry to inform you that the opposition’s lawyer is already on the case, one of the top legal teams in the country. The rest, it’s up to you to contest."
On hearing about a top legal team in the country, Mrs. Qiu was stunned. Especially after she looked up the penalty for abduction and subsequently fainted in the police station. The sentence was so harsh, how many years would her son have to spend in prison? Wouldn’t his life be ruined?
Mr. Qiu hurriedly took his wife to the hospital while at the sa ti contacting their legal team. No matter what team the other side had, this was his son, and he would not allow anything to happen to him.
...
In the sa hospital, Sun Ling woke up from a restless sleep with a start, her forehead covered in sweat, her expression one of shock and fear.
Sun Ling’s mother quickly reached for her hand, soothing her with a gentle voice: "It’s over now, we’ve been rescued. It’s all right, Xiaoling."
Gasping for breath, Sun Ling cald down after a mont and then looked out the window, asking her mother, "Mom, have the police arrested anyone?"
"Qiu Tianyi has been arrested. The Qiu Family is in a frenzy right now, but it’s in vain. We have irrefutable evidence, so we don’t need to be afraid; the authorities will certainly deliver us justice. Such a villain, even death is too good for him!"
"Mom, I’m okay now," Sun Ling said, relieved, "Having you all by my side, I’ll forget about yesterday’s events soon enough."
"You’ve injured your foot, so stay in the hospital for a couple of days. I’ll go ho to fetch so clothes for you and bring so food. I’ve told An Lan’s bodyguard to go back as well; the young man has been up all night without sleep."
"I can recover at ho too!" Sun Ling asserted.
"Stay in the hospital; it’s more convenient." Sun Ling’s mother insisted, instructing her daughter otherwise, and then went ho to gather her things.
The Qiu parents had found out which hospital Sun Ling was in early in the morning and wanted to reconcile with her. However, Sun Ling’s mother and the hospital had been alerted not to accept any visitors, but Mrs. Qiu deceived the nurse, claiming she was Sun Ling’s mother-in-law, and pestered the nurse, who relenting due to her story about her son being on the brink of death.
Finally, the nurse couldn’t bear it any longer, and said to her, "I will accompany you then, but if the patient refuses to see you, you must leave imdiately!"
