Chapter 1009: Chapter 1009: Don’t Appear in Front of Me Chapter 1009: Chapter 1009: Don’t Appear in Front of Me “Miss Xu, intentional injury is subject to legal responsibility,” the police said.

“Legal responsibility? Sorry, but I’m not taking the blame for that,” Xu Chaomu scoffed. “If we were really talking legal responsibility, this woman should have been in prison a long time ago.”

Xu Chaomu turned her head and glanced at Bai Man.

“We don’t know the grievances between you two, but from all the evidence, Miss Xu, you are at fault, and moreover, the injuries on Miss Bai are quite evident,” the police said.

Xu Chaomu knew that she had no way to defend herself.

“Then, her running over my dog…”

“Miss Xu, Miss Bai running over your dog–she’s willing to accept financial compensation,” the police said.

The female driver quickly said, “Yes, yes, we are very sincere. We were willing to offer five thousand yuan from the beginning, and it’s still the same, no changes.”

“Mm,” the police nodded. “Miss Xu, as you can see, Miss Bai and her driver are very sincere. So, Miss Bai, in this case, are you willing to accept mediation?”

“No,” Bai Man said decisively, “follow the ‘Public Security Administration Punishment Law’ exactly as it should be applied. I won’t accept any apologies or compensations.”

“Bai Man, that slap I gave you just now was too light!” Xu Chaomu clenched her teeth.

“Officer, brazen threats, isn’t that an additional crime?” Bai Man said lightly.

“Miss Xu, please calm down,” the police said. “Since Miss Bai is not accepting mediation, we must detain you. According to the severity of this case, we are giving you ten days of detention.”

“Why, I don’t accept this!” Xu Chaomu was angry.

“I agree,” Bai Man said.

“Miss Xu, you intentionally injured someone,” the police said. “Inform your family.”

“Then, officer…can we leave now?” the female driver asked.

“You may.”

The female driver then took out five thousand yuan from her wallet and slapped it on the table!

Xu Chaomu immediately stood up, quickly threw the money in their faces, “Get lost, Bai Man, and remember my words, don’t show up in front of me!”

“Miss Xu, calm down, this is a police station, no form of threats are allowed,” the police intervened, stopping Xu Chaomu.

Bai Man scoffed, casting a triumphant glance at Xu Chaomu, and walked out of the interrogation room in her high heels.

Her driver soon followed, and both left together.

As Bai Man was leaving, her face still bore the mark of a slap, faint but messy.

Xu Chaomu gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at Bai Man.

“Officer, my little dog is still at the pet hospital, and I would like to see it,” Xu Chaomu said.

“During detention, you cannot leave the police station,” the police replied. “You can call someone from your family.”

“I have no family,” Xu Chaomu said flatly, expressionless.

The police frowned, “What about friends?”

“None either.”

“Alright, we’ll collect your information and try to contact whoever we can reach. We need them to come and claim you.”

They all thought Xu Chaomu’s attitude towards admitting her mistake wasn’t good–who doesn’t have family or friends? It’s not like she lives in a vacuum.

“Miss Xu, Officer Chen will educate you on ideological issues and explain the dangers of disturbing public order,” the police said calmly.

But Xu Chaomu covered her ears, “I don’t want to hear it, don’t want to hear it, stop talking!”

Xu Chaomu’s head hung low as she covered her ears, refusing to listen.

“…” The police officers exchanged glances.

“Miss Xu, knowing some law can benefit your future life.” The police tried to persuade earnestly.

Xu Chaomu looked at them and said, “Don’t talk! It’s so annoying.”

What did her lecturing Bai Man have to do with the law? If Shen Chi were here, he would definitely say he was the law himself; any dog daring to hit his woman was seeking death.

Xu Chaomu pouted, at this moment, she suddenly thought of someone else.

“Miss Xu, we think…”

“Don’t talk!” Xu Chaomu interrupted them.

She didn’t want to hear it. She just hit Bai Man, so what?

A few officers glanced at each other and discussed, “Maybe we should look into her relatives and friends.”

“Okay.”

The officers asked Xu Chaomu several more questions, but she was very uncooperative.

But Xu Chaomu thought, she had to go to work on Monday; if she couldn’t get out by tomorrow, it would be quite embarrassing if her colleagues found out.

It’s a minor issue if her company knew, but a major one if their partners found out. Who would dare hire her as a designer then?

“Officer, can we talk?” Xu Chaomu leaned on the table. “Can you just detain me for one night as a gesture?”

“The law is not a child’s play!” The police refused.

“Actually… you don’t know, that Miss Bai, she really has a heart of a scorpion. She stole my boyfriend five years ago, and now that I have a new boyfriend, she still wants to steal him. Really, officer, I’m telling the truth. Nobody could stand having their boyfriend stolen…”

As she spoke, tears began to fall from Xu Chaomu’s eyes.

“I’m telling the truth, and you haven’t listened to my explanation from the start. What can I do? That Miss Bai really is a… schemer, only wanting to steal other’s boyfriends.”

“We only consider the evidence at the scene,” the police said flatly.

“If the authorities do not resolve the people’s issues, they might as well go home and grow sweet potatoes!” Xu Chaomu cried out with a wail.

The officers exchanged glances, several grown men watching Xu Chaomu cry, slightly at a loss.

“You… stop crying,” someone handed her a tissue.

“Can you guys… be a bit lenient… just one night in detention…is it possible?” Xu Chaomu sobbed, “Officer, I know… it’s possible… if you are lenient… I promise, promise there won’t be a next time.”

Xu Chaomu cried pitifully, her tears resembling pear blossoms washed by rain.

“My dog is still in the hospital, its life hanging by a thread, that schemer, she really has a heart of a scorpion, she intentionally hit my dog… you can see it, her arrogance. Nothing like me, simple and kind-hearted,” Xu Chaomu continued.

“Alright, stop crying.”

“If you don’t agree, I’ll just keep crying…” Xu Chaomu desperately tried to think of sad things.

Like when Shen Chi scolded her; it made her very sad.

Thinking of sad things, she couldn’t stop crying.

The officers really had no solution; being lenient wasn’t impossible.

“Stop crying for now, cooperate with us. Tell us your family or friends’ phone numbers, and your address,” the police sighed, today’s young girls were really something.

“I really don’t have any family… I only have that dog to rely on…” Xu Chaomu cried.

“What about your friends? Your coworkers? You must have some, right?”

“I do, I do, I’ll give you my coworker’s number, is that okay? Can you let her take me home, please?” Xu Chaomu pleaded.
