Chapter 63: Chapter 63: This Man is Not to Be Messed With
Lu Wanwan finally came back to her senses, rubbed her sore arm that had just been twisted, and took two steps back.
“Who are you? Mind your own business,” Qiang Ge grudgingly warned. A chill had run through him just now, and subconsciously, he felt that this man was not to be trifled with.
Xu Yuan, who was rolling up his sleeves, also stopped and looked over.
Haven’t Gu Annan and Lu Wanwan been long estranged?
Before anyone could speak, several uniformed police officers quickly walked into the restaurant.
“Nobody move, police!”
Qiang Ge hadn’t expected to draw the police and instantly turned sheepish, instantly offering a cigarette with a smile, “Officer, I’m just here to collect a debt, I’ll pay for anything that’s damaged…”
The officer gave him a cold glance, “Take everyone involved away.”
It was unknown who made the report, but it was clear they had high connections, as the chief himself had personally dispatched them to quickly apprehend the suspects.
“Handcuff these three troublemakers.”
Zhao Chen waited outside for Gu Annan and Lu Wanwan to give their statements.
This must be the first time Gu has been to a police station. Normally, he could have just made a call for the police to handle it, and the BOSS didn’t need to show up at all. This trouble also seemed unrelated to Miss Lu.
Who would have known someone would foolishly provoke Miss Lu?
Before long, Gu Annan walked out under the chief’s obsequious farewell, leading Lu Wanwan.
“We apologize for delaying Mr. Gu’s time,”
The edge in the man’s eyes was barely perceptible, and he didn’t stop walking as he said lightly, “Just now, it seemed like someone was bragging, saying they had connections in the station, that they weren’t afraid of getting caught?”
The chief sweated profusely, “Rest assured Mr. Gu, we will thoroughly investigate this matter, no amount of backing will help!”
As they nearly reached the police station exit, Lu Wanwan looked back and didn’t see Xu Yuan.
“Wait a minute.” Lu Wanwan hurried after him; the tall figure in front of her paused slightly, and she continued, “Gu Annan, Xu Yuan hasn’t come out yet.”
Zhao Chen explained, “This incident was targeted at Miss Xu. She’s different from you, Miss Xu has to cooperate with the investigation.”
“Can I wait for her?” Lu Wanwan thought, unable to leave Xu Yuan alone here, in the police station.
Gu Annan turned his face to look at her, a trace of bruise visible on her flawless wrist.
Her skin was pale, especially delicate, and the slightest force would easily leave marks.
His brows knitted instantly, finding the bruise particularly glaring, “Get in the car immediately.”
Gu Annan’s car was parked just outside the police station. After speaking, he descended the steps without looking back.
“Miss Lu, if you’re worried, just make a phone call or send a text message. Miss Xu might not know how long she’ll need to assist in the investigation; waiting here is pointless. Don’t worry, she’s the victim, Gu has already informed the police, and a police car will take her home shortly. You can’t help by staying here.”
Lu Wanwan felt relieved; otherwise, she truly worried that some underworld figures might target Xu Yuan.
Xiaozhao was right, waiting here was useless. All she could do to help was to immediately let everyone know about Ling Xiaoxue’s actions.
“Gu Annan, can I discuss something with you?” Lu Wanwan quickly boarded the car, speaking earnestly, “I want to go back to the newspaper office, I… I need to work overtime.”
“Lu Wanwan, you really are dedicated!”
Heading to work overtime on the weekend, especially after just leaving the police station.
Is it dedication, or is it avoiding seeing him?
