The next day, Nancheng was sunny and bright with the dawn of warm sunshine.
The golden sunlight blanketed the earth, as if the storm of the night before had never happened.
In the morning, not long after breakfast, Aunt Zhou hurried in to report, “Mr. Xiao, the police are here.”
Xiao Yebai ordered in a soft voice, “Let them in.”
“Xiaobai.” Mo Weiyi stared at him, visibly nervous.
Considering how Xiaobai had beaten Song Quan last night, he wouldn’t be in trouble, would he?
Xiao Yebai instructed, “When the police question you later, your only response should be ‘yes’. Remember that.”
” Huh?” Mo Weiyi was taken aback.
“Did you remember?” Xiao Yebai repeated.
” I remember.” Mo Weiyi could only nod in agreement.
Soon, Aunt Zhou led a few police officers in.
The leading officer looked like he was in his forties; a few subordinates flanked him, all of them dressed in serious police uniforms.
Except for one man who was dressed in plain clothes.
And he was quite handsome.
The word “handsome” was used to describe him mainly because among the stern-faced police squad, he was noticeably standout.
In his twenties, young and somewhat naive, a certain casual demeanor showed through his handsome features, with a cigarette hanging from the corner of his mouth.
But it wasn’t even lit.
Seeing Mo Weiyi, he hooked the corners of his lips upwards in a slight smirk, then turned his gaze towards Xiao Yebai.
His eyes were teasing and satisfied.
Xiao Yebai casually avoided his gaze.
The man: “…”
What the hell!
Look at this young man’s aloof and indifferent manner, still pretending not to know him?
What a perfect act, without a trace of pretense.

“Mr. Xiao, Mrs. Xiao.”
In the study, the leading officer was very polite.
Perhaps knowing that the couple’s status was not ordinary, even the questioning was conducted in a gentle tone.
“Mrs. Xiao, do you recognize this man?”
Mo Weiyi looked at the photo handed to her, her face full of fear as she quickly turned to embrace Xiao Yebai.
The photo was drenched in blood.
Song Quan was lying on the ground, his face a mass of bloody flesh, his features unrecognizable, his hair matted and dyed with fresh blood, and the ground around him was bloody as well.
Xiao Yebai glanced at it briefly, then lifted his hand to stroke Mo Weiyi’s hair gently, his tone soothing, “I’m sorry, my wife is abit timid.”
The officer nodded in understanding, “This man, named Song Quan, was assaulted last night in the women’s restroom on the tenth floor of Ziguang Building, at the intersection of Jircy Road and Sun Road. His lower body was ruptured, multiple fractures all over his body, and severe brain injuries. He is now in the hospital for emergency treatment. The doctor’s initial diagnosis states that his brain is severely affected and he might become a vegetable, never to wake up again…”
With each statement, Mo Weiyi trembled.
She remembered that when she left last night, although Song Quan did have blood on him, it wasn’t as horrifyingly serious…
“Mrs. Xiao.” The officer asked again, “Do you know this man?”
Mo Weiyi buried her face in Xiao Yebai’s chest, remaining motionless.
The officer:
Xiao Yebai looked down at her and said softly, “Don’t be scared, I’m here.”
She held tightly onto his clothes with her slender white fingers. Then, Mo Weiyi finally turned her head. As soon as she saw the second photo, her face paled even more. Hastily, she said, “His name is Rong An, he is my bodyguard.”
The man in the photo was Rong An, but he was wearing a yellow vest confiscated by the police, his eyes focused forward and face expressionless. “Why did you arrest him?”
“This gentleman turned himself in. He claimed that Song Quan attempted to assault Mrs. Xiao, so he attacked Song Quan with a baton. We have done the tests. The fingerprints on the baton indeed belong to Mr. Rong.”
Mo Weiyi opened her beautiful cat-like eyes wide, not quite comprehending for a long while.
Rong An… turned himself in?
Why?
“May I ask Mrs. Xiao.” The officer’s voice echoed once more, “Did Song Quan attempt to sexually harass you last night?”
Remembering Xiao Yebai’s instructions, Mo Weiyi could only answer, “Yes.”
The officer and the handsome young man exchanged glances. Then he collected the photos, stood up and said, “Alright, we have verified everything. Sorry for the disturbance.”
Mo Weiyi watched as the group of police officers left.
Then, she suddenly seemed to come to her senses, hurriedly asking, “Xiaobai, is Rong An going to be jailed?”
” He will be fine.” Xiao Yebai calmly affirmed.
Mo Weiyi was still uneasy. Feeling guilty, she said, “It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t been targeted by that man that day, Rong An wouldn’t have hit him for me. Can you quickly find someone to get him out? I don’t want him to go to jail…”
“Alright.” Xiao Yebai agreed.
With his promise, Mo Weiyi was finally able to rest easy.
Rong An had been with her for many years. It could be said that the three of them had grown up together from childhood.
Although Rong An was just a bodyguard, she saw him more as a friend. Now that he was implicated because of her, she really did not want anything to happen to him.
As expected, Rong An returned in the afternoon.
Mo Weiyi examined him carefully and saw that he was unharmed. She only then truly felt at ease.

Su Wanwan only learned about Mo Weiyi’s injury when she went to school on Monday.
She initially thought this brat was reverting to her old rebellious ways.
For someone who hated going to school and studying, getting her to attend school diligently was already a great feat.
Just as expected, it hadn’t even been a month, and she was back to truancy.
But when she received the call, she found out about the accident.
And then, she heard it was a pervert who followed her into the women’s restroom, reaching his hand under the cubicle…
“Damn, you must have been scared to death, right?”
“I was so scared at that time, just like that horror movie ‘The Grudge’ we watched together before! Remember? Hiding under the bed, and then seeing the child’s feet running back and forth on the floor, ah… It was so scary…”
Su Wanwan:
Just hearing it sent shivers down her spine. What more for the skittish Mo Weiyi?
