Chapter 1060 AT THE POLICE STATION (I)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

SU YUQI let out a long sigh as she looked around the police station. She couldn't believe that they would end up in this place. The day started amazingly, but then it ended in such a disaster. She could only blame herself for not minding her own business.

But what could she do? Just ignore that poor girl and let her be harassed by those gangsters? Maybe it wouldn't even end with just simple harassment and something much dreadful would have happened.

The other reason why she couldn't just turn a blind eye was because she knew the girl. Well, not personally. She just knew of her. The other was a scholarship student in the modern art department of the same university. Which meant that she was probably very talented.

Since they were from different departments, they didn't really have much of an interaction. So, of course, she also didn't know that the other was working part time in the hotpot restaurant. If she hadn't recognized the girl through the gap of the private room's door as she passed by it, she probably wouldn't act so recklessly.

Even if they didn't know each other personally, the fact that she knew of the other was enough for Su Yuqi to save the other. She just didn't expect for Luo Jin to suddenly appear in the middle.

Not that he wasn't thankful. If he hadn't appeared like that, standing in front of her like some knight in shining armor, that trash would have definitely slapped her. No matter how cool and bad-ass she tried to make herself to be, her physical strength wouldn't surpass that of a grown man. Someone who not only had a big build, but also used to fighting.

That's why when Luo Jin appeared and protected her, she couldn't help but be filled with worry. But surprisingly enough, he held his own against that bastard. No, he actually beat the other up. Even when those other four trash interfered, Luo Jin was still able to fend against them.

As Su Yuqi watched him in the midst of that brawl with the gangsters, her heart raced with an unexpected intensity. It was as if she, too, stood against those bastards. The exhilaration surged through her, and simultaneously, she found herself captivated by him. In that instant, she genuinely sensed his radiance, shining so brightly that he became the sole focus of her gaze.

It was an unexpected, yet wonderful, feeling.

Of course, in the middle of all that, she didn't forget to call the police. She thought that as long as the police came, everything would be over. But who would have thought that things would escalate after that?

Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun suddenly joined in the fight. Well, strictly speaking, it was mainly just Shen Ji Yun. However, with Luo Yan hurling whatever he could find at the gangsters, it almost felt like he was also part of the fight.

And then, when that man who seemed like the boss of the bunch joined in the fray, things became even more chaotic. Even when the security of the restaurant tried to stop the fight, it didn't really help. Instead, things just became messier.

Thankfully, before any of those gangsters could pull out a knife, the police arrived and took everyone involved in the police station.

And thus, ending up in this situation.

The police separated the two groups and were taking their statements individually.

"Can you tell me exactly what happened?"

The police officer's question pulled Su Yuqi from her thoughts. She turned her attention back to the person in front. It was a female police officer who was taking her statement. Su Yuqi calmly answered her question, leaving no details behind. Of course, making sure to emphasize that none of this was their fault. And what happened was purely self-defense.

As she was giving her statement, she glanced at the guy referred to as 'Brother Du'. The other had a smug look on his face as another police officer was taking his statement. She sneered inwardly.

She wasn't sure where that guy got his confidence. Maybe he got a high rank in whatever gang he belonged to and he believed that he could get out of this situation unscathed. If they were normal students, that would probably be the case. But unfortunately for him, the people he offended just belonged to families leading in business, politics, and the art world.

She removed her gaze and just focused her attention on giving her statement.

After she was done, the officer told her to wait in the waiting area seats. She bowed slightly, then stood up. When she turned around and was just about to walk towards the waiting area seats, he saw the girl sitting beside Luo Jin. She looked like she was saying something.

If that was all, Su Yuqi would not think anything of it. But the girl, Zhang Mei, was blushing all red while talking to Luo Jin. She suddenly felt complicated seeing that. The urge to sit between the two and separate them was almost overwhelming. The only reason she's probably not doing it was because Luo Jin didn't have any reaction to her and his only response was a slight nod of his head.

Su Yuqi let out a deprecating laugh. She couldn't believe that she was actually feeling jealous right now. Yes, she's not dense enough not to recognize the emotion swirling inside her at this moment.

Well, it seemed like she actually didn't just think of the other as an adorable 'kid'. Now, this was an improvement.

She started walking again and just simply sat beside Luo Jin.

"Done? They're still taking Yan and that guy's statement," Luo Jin said as she sat down.

She glanced at the other and noticed that his cheek that was slapped was now turning blue. She furrowed her brows.

"Should we go to the hospital later?" she asked.

Before Luo Jin could answer, the door to the station suddenly opened and Bai Chen came running inside.

"Yan Yan! Xiao Jin! Where are you?"

Luo Jin didn't have time to greet his uncle because Luo Yan ran towards the other. And, in a true Luo Yan fashion, he said with a face full of tears;

"Uncle, they bullied us! Please help us find justice!"
