"The wound isn’t very deep, and she was admitted in time. She’ll be alright," the head of the Gu Family quietly consoled his wife. He had glimpsed at the wound on Gu En’s hand. Though it appeared fearsome, he was sure that it hadn’t affected any major blood vessels.
"She must be terrified being alone in the jail. If she finds out that she’s getting out only to be sent back, she will surely collapse," Mrs. Gu fretted endlessly. But in this matter, with Xing Ye and Chen Yun, and also Bian Mufan from the court, there was very limited wiggle room for the Gu and Lan Families.
"Don’t you worry, Mrs. Gu. The mental tolerance of a murderer isn’t that limited. At most, she will find other ways of self-harm once she returns to the station, till you exhaust all methods to get her out," Chen Yun spoke, glancing at the police officers who stood silent with bowed heads. He knew, before he arrived, the Gu family members must have bawled them out.
"Chief Chen, you still dare to show up! When Xiao’en was taken away by you yesterday, she wasn’t hurt. But an accident happened in your station! Do you have any shame?" Upon seeing Chen Yun, the head of the Gu Family couldn’t suppress his anger. He had gone to the station early in the morning to meet Chen Yun. However, Chen Yun was nowhere to be seen, his subordinates were as evasive as eels and they didn’t provide any information, not even about Chen Yun’s whereabouts.
"Why shouldn’t I show up? What? Is Miss Gu’s self-harming supposed to be my fault? Well, considering, it is my mistake as well." Chen Yun shrugged, "I treated your family with respect because Gu En is your daughter. I didn’t let anyone frisk her, which was neglect of duty on my part. As a law-abiding citizen, I wouldn’t expect that the daughter of the Gu Family would carry a dangerous object like a small knife. By the way, I am quite curious, what was your mentality when you taught your daughter to do such things? I would like to learn so I can use it as a negative example for my children in the future."
No one around Lin Chan lacked the trait of sarcasm, even Chen Yun. When he intended to insult someone, he was absolutely infuriating, especially his typical unrepentant smiling face. It made people want to punch him upon sight.
"However, since you have pointed out the police station’s negligence, rest assured, once I return, I will make everyone write a self-criticism. We will manage Miss Gu as per regular procedures when she comes back to the station. We shall frisk her regardless of whether she is Miss Gu or not. In our station, we don’t give any preferential treatment to anyone."
Chen Yun was only there for a show. While the Gu Family anxiously waited outside the operation theater, he was outside, gleefully chatting and laughing with nurses, without considering the feelings of the Gu Family. In the end, the head of the Gu Family, seeing that his mother and wife couldn’t bear it anymore, politely sent Chen Yun away, so that he wouldn’t have to worry about Gu En.
As soon as Chen Yun left, Mrs Gu started crying in anger, "Chen Yun is incredibly outrageous!"
But there was no choice, as at this point, the connections of both the old Mr Lan and Mr Ye couldn’t be used, as neither of the old men dared to inform them about the situation.
"You all wait here. I will personally go to He Teng’s wife’s hospital to discuss this," the head of the Gu Family stood up. After instructing Mr and Mrs Lan to take care of things, he walked out of the hospital.
