Chapter 78 Are You Staying in There for the New Year?
“Drugs?” Qin Muchen squinted at Nan Chuan, looking gloomy as if a storm was brewing on his face, and a chill emitted from him. Nan Chuan couldn’t help but shudder and look down, afraid to meet Qin Muchen’s eyes.
After years of working with Qin Muchen, he knew he had a terrible temper. Yet, this was one of the rare times that he was scarily angry. “She has been taken to the local police station.” After pondering, Nan Chuan added, “Many people saw it.”
Qin Muchen’s eyes were frighteningly gloomy.
Nan Chuan waited for Qin Muchen’s instructions, but Qin Muchen just grabbed his coat and rushed out instead.
Nan Chuan quickly followed him.
Su Ziyue sat on the floor, looking numb and expressionless.
She knew that Su Yige would be pulling more tricks, but she didn’t expect that Su Yige would take it to the point of destroying her life.
No family, regardless if they were common or powerful, would ever accept someone who did drugs before.
None.
Su Ziyue hugged herself tightly.
Didn’t they say that injecting drugs into yourself would offer a fantastic feeling?
But she didn’t feel that now. Only coldness engulfed her and invaded her bones.
Things had finally been picking up, but after this time, it would be all gone.
“Ziyue, Ziyue…” beside her, An Xia called Su Ziyue’s name.
After several calls, Su Ziyue finally came back to her senses. Her tongue and head felt stiff, and she could barely make a sound after repeatedly opening her mouth. “An Xia, I’m sorry I dragged you into this.”
“What nonsense are you talking about in this kind of situation? How do you feel now?” An Xia was also panic-stricken because she had watched as that needle pierced Su Ziyue’s skin.
She had known Su Ziyue for years, so she understood how much hardship she had endured.
Thinking that Su Yige was behind all this, she was dying to rip that b*tch apart.
“I-I don’t feel anything…” Su Ziyue shook her head.
Other than feeling cold, she didn’t feel anything else now.
“An Xia, I’ll be held in administrative detention before being put into mandatory isolation, right?” Su Ziyue softly asked An Xia, her voice as light as a feather.
“Ziyue, don’t fret. Are you sure they really injected it in?”
At that moment, An Xia was focused on fighting that department manager, so she didn’t clearly see what had happened before the police arrived.
“It was injected. I saw it…”
Su Ziyue tightened her arms around herself.
An Xia was at a loss because words were useless now. As an adult, she could instantly foresee the terrible consequences of this incident.
Speaking was useless now.
Clang. The steel door opened.
A police officer walked in. “The result for the urine test is out. You, come along with us to complete a written statement. Then, you can go home.”
The police pointed at An Xia, but An Xia remained still.
Su Ziyue gave her a nudge. “Go now. I’ll be fine. Didn’t I overcome that incident that year too?”
“It’s not the same this time.” An Xia almost burst out crying out of anxiety.
Although the police officer said that she could leave after completing a written statement, that also meant that Su Ziyue had indeed been injected with the drug.
When Su Ziyue, who had been holding it in all this time, saw An Xia crying, her tears that were brimming in her eyes overflowed as well.
She then stood up and wiped away the tears that were trickling down her face before pushing An Xia out in a casual manner. “Be good.”
Shaking her head, An Xia cried even louder.
The police shouted impatiently, “Quiet!”
In the end, An Xia went out, leaving Su Ziyue feeling even colder.
An Xia cried all the way out and bumped into Bai Jingshu and Qin Muchen, who were rushing in her direction.
Qin Muchen wore a cold black suit, and he looked stern and indifferent. But after bumping into An Xia, emotion flashed across his eyes. “Where is she?”
“The result for the urine test is out, and Ziyue…”
An Xia couldn’t even breath while sobbing, so she just wept for the rest of the time.
But from her brief reply, the two men completely understood what she meant.
Qin Muchen looked fiendish while gloominess overtook his face. He then turned to look at Bai Jingshu. “Escort Miss An out.”
After that, he went inside with big strides.
Bai Jingshu didn’t look too happy either. Although he couldn’t remain friendly with An Xia for more than three seconds whenever they met, he still stayed gentlemanly in this situation.
He brought An Xia to his car. “You can sit here first. I have to go in.”
“Ziyue will be okay, won’t she?”
An Xia raised her head to look at him with her red eyes, looking extremely pitiful.
Looking at her face, Bai Jingshu unexpectedly placed his hand on her head and stroked her hair. “Yes. She’ll be fine.”
Noticing that An Xia looked unconvinced, he added, “I have connections with the higher-ups.”
Finally, An Xia stopped crying and solemnly thanked him. “Thank you.”
He was used to teasing her, so he felt awkward when she suddenly thanked him in such a formal manner.
An Xia’s tear-washed eyes were still glimmering while she stared at Bai Jingshu, causing his ears to feel hot for some reason. Without saying anything else, he turned to walk into the police station.
Su Ziyue leaned against the wall. She could foresee the consequences that awaited her.
However, she refused to yield.
If her life was truly destroyed this time, she swore that Su Yige would not have a sweet life too.
How could she dream of living happily after destroying someone’s life?
Impossible.
Myriads of thoughts swept through her heart. In the end, a handsome face with a faint smile crossed her mind.
Qin Muchen.
“Su Ziyue, come out. Someone is here for you.”
The steel door was opened again, and a police officer walked in.
“What?” Astonished, Su Ziyue stood up.
The police didn’t care what she felt and just left after opening the door.
Then, a tall figure dressed in a black shirt and trousers appeared at the door, looking mysterious yet cold.
Noticing that she stood in place without moving for a long time, Qin Muchen raised his eyebrows and asked coldly, “Are you staying here for the new year?”
Su Ziyue blinked twice with all her might because she couldn’t believe that Qin Muchen was in front of her.
After she said those words to him that day, she thought he wouldn’t care about her anymore.
“Su Ziyue!” Qin Muchen’s voice obviously sounded unhappy.
He then strode over and looked around the space before averting his eyes back to her, his face expressionless. “You’re becoming more impressive. This is my first time coming to this place. Yet, you managed to find your way in.”
Su Ziyue bit her lips and remained silent while listening to his taunts.
Since she didn’t reply to him, Qin Muchen felt bored, so he pulled her hand and headed outside.
He walked hurriedly, as if he couldn’t wait to leave this place.
Looking down at their hands that were clasped together, Su Ziyue’s heart suddenly raced.
