Chapter 341: Chapter 341: She Has Someone to Back Her Up
Wu Xiaomin was furious upon hearing An Mi’s words.
“Brother, she won’t shed a tear until she sees the coffin. Since she doesn’t agree to a private settlement, neither do I. I’m going to show her what happens when she angers me!”
During their conversation, Wu siblings completely disregarded the presence of the police.
They were extremely arrogant.
Moreover, it was clear that An Mi was in the weaker position.
People tend to stand with the underdog, plus An Mi was truly well-behaved, spoke gently and politely, and her thoughts were well-organized.
Unlike Wu Xiaomin, who had been uncooperative ever since her arrival, ranting loudly.
“Miss Wu, mind your tone. This is a police station,” one of the officers said sternly.
Wu Xiaomin paid them no heed whatsoever.
“You’d better not meddle in affairs that aren’t your concern, otherwise you may not be able to keep your job!”
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked, thinking how arrogant this girl was!
The male officer wanted to speak up again, but his colleague timely held him back and said, “Li, don’t talk anymore. We can’t afford to offend these two. You’re up for promotion this year; just stay out of this.”
The officer referred to as Li frowned, “But aren’t we supposed to handle these matters, wearing this uniform?”
His colleague pulled him away and whispered, “We should, but we also need to know our limits. These siblings are from the Wu Family. The man who just arrived is Wu Yingjun; he’s famous around here for frequently being brought in, yet he always manages to leave unscathed. Do you know why?”
Li scoffed, “Isn’t it just because they have money!”
His colleague said, “Money is one thing, but he also has an uncle who’s the Deputy Director in our department. Do you think we low-level staff can afford to provoke him?”
“I’m telling you, people with money and power are beyond our reach; it’s better to turn a blind eye.”
It’s not that they didn’t want to help, but that’s the harsh reality; they were just small players who of course couldn’t compete against the big players.
“…”
Wu Xiaomin continued to harangue An Mi relentlessly, “An Mi, I’ve told you, don’t mess with me or you won’t have a good ending! Even if you recorded it, so what? If you want to sue me, you’d have to see if there’s anyone brave enough to take your case!”
“Since you love being in the police station so much, I’ll let you stay here long enough! That’s perfect; you wouldn’t need to go back to school. Just stay here!”
Her words had just finished when a deep, chilling voice sounded from behind them.
“Who told you that no one dares to take her case?”
Upon hearing that, they all turned around to look.
Wan Muqi, dressed in a refined gray suit, walked in with an upright posture.
He exuded a scholarly and steady air, and his handsome face made him even more captivating.
Wu Xiaomin was momentarily mesmerized.
As for Wu Yingjun standing beside her, he was stunned the moment he saw Wan Muqi appear.
Perhaps Wu Xiaomin was the only one not familiar with Wan Muqi.
“Mr. Wan, what brings you here?” Officer Li asked as he immediately stepped forward upon seeing Wan Muqi.
After entering, Wan Muqi’s gaze rested continuously on An Mi.
He said, “I’m here to pick up my little friend.”
An Mi: “…”
When did she become a little friend?
He then told An Mi, “Come over here.”
An Mi pouted her lips and walked towards him.
No one expected An Mi to know Wan Muqi.
Since Wan Muqi took on various criminal cases, he was quite familiar with the police personnel, and with his reputation in the legal field, it was hard not to know him.
“Why are you here?” An Mi asked him.
She was clearly calling for her sister, how did it end up being him?
“Your sister sent me a message, asked me to come over first,” Wan Muqi replied.
An Mi: “Oh, okay.”
“Tell me, what’s the situation?” the man asked.
An Mi played the recording for him.
Five minutes later, the man’s expression was very dark.
He looked at Wu Xiaomin with an icy and sharp gaze.
Wu Xiaomin immediately felt a chill, and her body hair stood on end.
The man’s gaze was too cold and also very frightening.
“Intercepting, intimidating others, her behavior has already suspected the crime of provoking trouble, Officer Li, could this be filed now?” Wan Muqi said in a deep voice.
Officer Li nodded and replied: “Yes, it can be.”
The school library’s surveillance and the recordings on An Mi’s cell phone are the most direct evidence.
Suddenly, a deep male voice sounded: “Wait a moment.”
A tall and portly man walked in.
“Uncle-in-law.”
Upon seeing Gao Qi, Wu Xiaomin immediately grinned broadly and scurried over, affectionately grabbing the middle-aged man’s arm.
Gao Qi looked at everyone and asked seriously: “What happened?”
Everyone except Li remained silent.
“Mr. Gao, the situation is like this…” Li roughly explained what happened at the time.
He did not favor Wu Xiaomin because he knows Gao Qi, but told the truth.
After Li finished, Gao Qi gave him a meaningful look and said, “You should be up for promotion this year, right?”
This remark was a warning from Gao Qi.
But Li pretended it was concern and replied neither humbly nor arrogantly: “Yes, Mr. Gao.”
Then, Gao Qi turned to Wan Muqi, smiling and said: “Mr. Wan, I’ve understood the whole matter. It’s just a minor squabble between two girls, it shouldn’t warrant filing a case, don’t you think?”
Of course, Gao Qi knew who Wan Muqi was, and was somewhat wary, but after investigating this girl, there was nothing special about her, just an ordinary girl.
With the status of Wan Muqi, it wouldn’t make sense to create such a commotion over an ordinary person, a little favor, and this would be over.
Men always care about their face, especially in front of women.
Wan Muqi looked at him indifferently without responding.
Gao Qi continued with a smile: “How about this, I just happened to book a table at Taoyao Inn tonight, let’s go have a meal together, chat slowly, and let the two girls talk it out too, they are after all still young, some things can be resolved with a conversation.”
Wan Muqi responded, “No need for dinner, we aren’t lacking that meal. Besides, the grievance my child suffered can’t just be overlooked so lightly. Someone who threatens to kill her, Mr. Gao, do you think this can be resolved just by talking? Moreover, Miss Wu is not young anymore, at least 21 years old, right? Does she not have any brains? Since she could say such things, it indicates that she has had such thoughts, and isn’t protecting a citizen’s personal safety and freedom the primary duty of your public security organs?”
Wan Muqi did not accept the step-down offered by Gao Qi.
Wan Muqi’s words made Gao Qi’s expression quite unsightly.
However, Wan Muqi’s backing was something he was well aware of, and such a person, he naturally could not afford to offend.
“So, Mr. Wan, how do you want to handle this?” Gao Qi asked, taking a step back.
Upon hearing this, Wu Xiaomin instantly became unhappy.
She called out: “Uncle-in-law…”
But before she could finish, she was stopped by Gao Qi’s look.
Wu Xiaomin had no choice but to shut her mouth.
Wan Muqi said nothing, but looked towards An Mi.
His intention was very clear, that was to let An Mi speak.
An Mi got his meaning and spoke: “I have already given her opportunities, but she kept bothering me repeatedly. For my future personal safety, I still hope the police provides me protection.”
The underlying meaning was: she does not accept any settlement!
“An Mi, you bitch, you are pushing your luck!” Wu Xiaomin swore straight away.
Wan Muqi’s face darkened as he looked at Gao Qi, and sneered: “Mr. Gao, it seems we must proceed with judicial matters after all. It seems Miss Wu won’t learn her lesson without suffering some hardship. Since your Wu Family can’t discipline her, it’s time to let society teach her a lesson.”
Gao Qi: “…”
“Minmin, say less,” Gao Qi glared at her and warned.
He then looked at Wu Yingjun and said, “Take your sister away first.”
Wu Xiaomin stubbornly said: “I won’t go, why should I go? I haven’t done anything excessive to her, I just told her to stay away from my boyfriend. It was she who shamelessly flirted with my boyfriend, and I can’t even talk about her, right?”
An Mi, listening to her distorting the truth, was speechless.
Suddenly, Su He’s voice rang out: “Is that so? You said she seduced your boyfriend, then bring out your proof.”
When Wu Xiaomin saw Su He, she felt a bit of familiarity but couldn’t recall immediately.
But the oppressive aura emanating from Su He was incredibly intense, giving her a momentary feeling of terror.
Wu Xiaomin: “Who are you, anyway?”
Su He: “You don’t need to worry about who I am. Since you said An Mi seduced your boyfriend, then bring out the evidence; as long as you have proof, we’ll let bygones be bygones.”
The next second, Su He swiftly changed her tone: “However, if you do not have proof, then I will sue you for defamation and spreading rumors!”
“…”
When Gao Qi saw the newcomer was Su He, a bad premonition suddenly crossed his mind.
“Mrs. Jiang, what brings you here?”
Gao Qi instantly became somewhat sycophantic.
He respectfully called out to Su He.
Gao Qi had once attended a banquet and seen Su He with Jiang Yan, and thus naturally recognized her.
The Jiang Family, in the entire country, was not to be trifled with.
And Jiang Yan was even more so untouchable.
Su He looked at him indifferently; she did not recognize him.
Gao Qi then introduced himself: “I’m Gao Qi, I’ve met you and President Jiang at a banquet before.”
Wu Xiaomin, seeing her uncle flattering this woman, frowned; even though she was naive, she knew this was a woman she could not afford to provoke.
Even her uncle was being so obsequious, clearly, the Wu Family couldn’t afford to provoke her either.
Upon hearing this, Su He just responded with an “Oh”, not showing much reaction.
Upon Su He’s appearance, Gao Qi’s mind started turning.
Su He’s presence here was obviously because of this matter.
What was the relationship between that ordinary girl and her?
One surnamed An and the other surnamed Su, they shouldn’t be related.
Thinking this, he recalled something.
It was well-known among the circles that Su He is the daughter of An Chengyuan, not taking the father’s surname but the mother’s.
Could it be that An Mi is from the An Family?
This thought flashed through his mind, and he felt terrible.
Only this could explain Su He’s purpose here.
If that were the case, then this matter would be difficult to handle.
Su He looked sharply at Wu Xiaomin: “Miss Wu, where is your evidence?”
Wu Xiaomin thought to herself, ‘Where would she have any evidence? She had merely spoken on impulse.’
Gao Qi at this moment hoped she could produce some evidence; otherwise, he didn’t know how to conclude this matter.
But Wu Xiaomin was evasively avoiding his gaze.
In this moment, nothing needed to be said; everyone understood.
Su He looked coldly at her: “Since Miss Wu cannot produce any evidence, then it’s time for us to settle some old scores with Miss Wu.”
Immediately after, Su He called out a name—”Fei Xu.”
Fei Xu responded: “Young Madam.”
Su He commanded: “Hand over the evidence of Miss Wu’s crimes to the police.”
Fei Xu: “Yes, Young Madam.”
Su He’s words successfully confused everyone present.
Especially Wu Xiaomin, who was most shocked.
“What crime evidence? Don’t slander me!” Wu Xiaomin pointed at Su He, saying angrily.
Su He curled her red lips, her voice carrying a trace of chill: “It seems that Miss Wu really forgets things high society, forgetting what you’ve done so quickly?”
Wu Xiaomin said: “I… what did I do?”
When she said these words, she already started to feel guilty, but she still forced herself to speak them out loud.
That matter, it was impossible for her to have discovered it; she had done it very covertly, hardly having done anything herself.
An Mi was also a bit curious about what else Wu Xiaomin had done.
She asked Wan Muqi in a low voice.
The man shook his head, indicating he didn’t know either.
On this point, Su He really hadn’t communicated with him.
Fei Xu handed the evidence to Li Xiang, who stood next to Wan Muqi.
Su He’s voice also rose: “Miss Wu, did you think that just because you didn’t show up in person and didn’t leave any evidence, I couldn’t find it? You paid someone to spread rumors on the school’s official website, slandering An Mi’s reputation. I haven’t wrongly accused you, have I?”
Wu Xiaomin’s face turned pale.
An Mi, on the other hand, looked puzzled. How was it that she knew nothing about this?
When did this happen?
Actually, this had already occurred when Wu Xiaomin intercepted An Mi outside the library.
But at that time, the disturbance was minor, and not many people noticed.
However, just half an hour ago, the topic “An Mi being kept by a mysterious person” spread across the school’s official website like a fierce storm.
After finishing the call with Wan Muqi, Su He received a call from An Rui and immediately ordered someone to investigate.
At the same time, she also contacted the school to have the post removed from the official website.
Any mention of An Mi couldn’t be found on the school’s official website.
The evidence was right in front of her, any explanation from Wu Xiaomin was futile.
And the support she thought she had, didn’t dare to speak at all after Su He showed up.
“Uncle, I didn’t do this, you have to help me.”
Gao Qi didn’t even bother looking at her.
“Mr. Gao, about this matter?” Officer Li looked at Gao Qi, deliberately asking.
At this moment, Gao Qi dared not say anything, he could only say: “Just follow the procedure.”
Li Xiang: “Alright, Mr. Gao.”
Wu Xiaomin panicked immediately.
But Gao Qi clearly didn’t want to deal with her anymore.
“Mrs. Jiang, I failed to recognize a great person today, I hope you won’t mind. I’ll have someone explain this to you,” Gao Qi said to Su He with great respect.
Su He didn’t make things difficult for him.
She nodded, “Then I’ll leave it to Mr. Gao.”
Gao Qi: “It’s no trouble, no trouble, it’s my responsibility anyway.”
An Mi watched him with a calm gaze, his flattering manner, the world does indeed respect the powerful.
But some people do not use this “power” correctly; instead, they exploit the vulnerable.
Feeling a bit of power, they think they can do whatever they want.
An Mi could also relate to the feeling of having someone to support her, but Wu Xiaomin used this advantage in improper ways, which would eventually backfire.
Now is the perfect example.
However, the feeling of having support is indeed exhilarating.
“Mr. Wan, I’ll leave the lawsuit to you,” Su He said looking at Wan Muqi.
Wan Muqi nodded, “Okay, no problem.”
Su He then looked at An Mi standing next to him and said, “An Mi, come home with me.”
An Mi instinctively looked at Wan Muqi.
Wan Muqi said, “Go home first, I’ll stay to wrap things up.”
An Mi pursed her lips, “Alright then.”
Su He looked at the two of them, frowning slightly, but she didn’t say anything.
