Chen Ziming entered the room, his face terrifyingly grim.
Bypassing everyone else, he walked directly towards the restroom.
“Director Chen, the person is not in danger, but she seems to have been drugged. Our people have taken the suspicious orange juice back to the station for testing.”
Seeing him approach, Director Cheng reported diligently.
“Thank you for your hard work,” Chen Ziming replied in a low voice, arriving at the restroom door.
“Good afternoon, Director Chen,” the female officer quickly greeted him.
“Mm, I’ll take her,” he walked over and expertly, smoothly picked up Su Yue.
Director Cheng and the female officer breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the limp girl in his arms, Chen Ziming’s brow furrowed deeply.
He had intended to take her to the hospital immediately, but as he passed by the individuals being controlled by the police, he couldn’t help himself and stopped.
“Liang Heshan.” Seeing the man who was incredibly flushed and couldn't even open his eyes, he immediately understood everything.
With a ferocious gaze, he looked at the man and called his name in an extremely dangerous tone.
“Huh?” Mr. Liang couldn’t see clearly. Hearing his name, he shook his head, trying to locate the source of the voice.
The other individuals were already as wilted as dry grass, especially Deputy Director Guo, who was so scared he had urinated himself.
No one went to tell him who was calling him.
He let out a cold laugh. Director Chen glanced around the room.
There was no surveillance.
“Director Cheng, do me a favor and pretend you didn’t see this,” he quietly said to Director Cheng.
Then, he strode forward and kicked the crouching Mr. Liang to the ground.
Screams echoed in the room again.
The rest of them immediately cowered, covering their heads in terror.
Chen Ziming then lowered his head, scrutinizing their faces.
Upon seeing Deputy Director Guo, his expression turned so dangerous it seemed he wanted to kill.
He had seen this man before.
When Su Yue talked about her leaders, she had sent him a photo.
“You brought her here, didn’t you?”
His voice, like that from hell, rang out. Deputy Director Guo trembled as he looked up, and seeing those sinister eyes, he instantly became a quivering mess.
He knew Su Yue might be his girlfriend, but he hadn’t taken Director Chen seriously at first.
Now, with him standing here in his police uniform, summoning so many officers, Deputy Director Guo felt the authority and pressure of a law enforcer for the first time.
Hugging himself, he said fearfully, “I, I was just… taking her for a meal… I didn’t know… Ah—–”
His words were met with another kick.
The surrounding police officers averted their gazes.
Seeing this, Director Cheng walked over and said in a low voice to Director Chen:
“That’s enough. I’ll handle the rest. You should hurry and take Su reporter to the hospital.”
Only then did Chen Ziming pull himself away from his anger and look at the flushed, softly panting girl in his arms.
“Alright, I’ll trouble you then,” he said to Director Cheng after taking a deep breath to calm himself.
After taking just two steps, he remembered something. “Director Cheng, could I borrow a colleague to drive my car?”
“No problem. Xiao Lin, you go,” Director Cheng called the newly arrived intern.
…
In the car.
The nearest hospital was a twenty-minute drive. Xiao Lin drove carefully and diligently.
Chen Ziming sat in the back seat with Su Yue, holding her and letting her lean against him.
“Hot…” The drug’s effect had fully kicked in, yet she felt too weak to move.
Su Yue could only express her discomfort in a garbled voice.
“We’ll be at the hospital soon, just hold on a little longer,” he said softly, unable to bear looking at her, reaching out to stroke her hair.
“Mmm… Director Chen… is that you…” Hearing his voice, she mumbled softly.
The man let out a gentle sigh.
He was really starting to like being called Director Chen.
“It’s me,” he replied patiently.
“Oh…” she answered softly.
The next second, she said something that made the car instantly awkward:
“Are you taking me home…”
“It just so happens… I’m feeling…”
“I really want to sleep with you…”
