Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Yun Liu had calmed down on the way to the police station. When the police came to question her, Yun Liu said she didn’t know anything and sobbed piteously—the very image of a sweet damsel in distress.
The police officers were frustrated while the Yun family’s lawyers stood in a
row outside, fully alert. The police had brought Yun Liu in just for routine
questioning, and the higher-ups received a call asking them to make an
exception and let her off. Therefore, not long after, they let Yun Liu go after
she signed her statement.
The lawyers quickly surrounded Yun Liu protectively, and Yun Zhang had rushed over to pick her up. Many reporters had gathered at the entrance of the police station and swarmed Yun Liu’s group as soon as they saw them. Yun Zhang removed his coat and draped it over Yun Liu, shielding her behind him as the reporters fired questions at them.
“Mr. Yun, I heard that Miss Gao Bei accused Yun Entertainment of instigating a
swindler to trick her into going abroad to sell her into prostitution. Is it true?”
“May I ask why Miss Yun Liu wanted to harm Miss Gao Bei? Did the two of them have any grudges against each other?”
“Miss Yun Liu, didn’t you say that you’ve been engaged to Mr. Shi Nian since you were a child? Why did Mr. Shi Nian marry Miss Yun Nan?”
“Miss Yun Liu, please explain your love triangle!”
“Mr. Yun Zhang, is your biological sister Miss Yun Liu or Miss Yun Nan?”
“Mr. Yun Zhang, did you know about this human trafficking incident in advance?”
“Mr. Yun Zhang! Mr. Yun Zhang, why did you chase Miss Yun Nan out of the company?”
“Miss Yun Liu! Miss Yun Liu, do you still love Mr. Shi Nian?”
“Miss Yun Liu! Miss Yun Liu—”
A tumult of voices surged over the group like a tide. Yun Zhang and the lawyers tried their best to shield Yun Liu as they walked forward. The lawyers whispered to the Yuns, advising the two siblings not to respond or speak. Yun Zhang looked gloomy as he tightly pursed his lips and held Yun Liu protectively in his arms.
Yun Liu was exhausted from all the crying she did and burned with anger when she heard those voices at this moment. She broke free from Yun Zhang’s embrace and wailed with all her might, “It was Yun Nan who stole my place!”
Yun Zhang covered her mouth and pushed her into the car. Then, he got in and closed the door with a bang. “What’s wrong with you?” Yun Zhang angrily roared, “Didn’t we tell you to keep quiet?”
Yun Liu was startled by his sudden outburst, but she still stubbornly said, “Why should I? Everyone is bullying me!”
The reporters were knocking on the car’s windows, so Yun Zhang instructed the driver, “Drive! Get us home!”
The car moved forward with difficulty in the crowd. Fortunately, the car’s tinted windows blocked the car’s interior from sight. The people outside couldn’t see Yun Liu’s hysterics in the car.
Yun Liu glared furiously at the distorted faces outside, feeling extremely wronged. Yun Zhang wearily leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes, not wishing to say anything.
“Yun Zhang, where’s Ding Pei?” Yun Liu inquired. “Where the h*ll did she go?
Did she skip town?”
Yun Zhang didn’t open his eyes as he answered, “She was arrested, allegedly for human trafficking. You’d better think about whether she has any leverage on you and whether she’ll give you up.”
“What?!” Yun Liu exclaimed, and her eyes widened in fright.
“Yun Zhang! Yun Zhang, what should we do? What should we do? She… If she wants to drag me down and sell—What should I do if she says I ordered her to do it?” Yun Liu fretted. Yun Zhang opened his eyes and silently stared at Yun Liu.
“Yun Zhang, what should we do?” Yun Liu questioned, rattled.
Yun Zhang’s mind was a mess as he looked at his little sister whining at him as usual. This was an illegal act of human trafficking. It wasn’t a small matter like her maxing out her credit card or bullying her classmates. However, she was acting like it was a small matter! Yun Zhang took a deep breath and asked, “Why did you target Gao Bei?”
Yun Liu’s fingers that were holding Yun Zhang’s arm subconsciously tightened, and she avoided his gaze as she replied, “I’m not targeting her! I didn’t! ”
“What did Gao Bei ever do to you? Why did you do that to her? You could’ve just found someone to intimidate and teach her a lesson. Why did you kidnap her? Don’t you know that’s illegal?” Yun Zhang reined in his temper and asked patiently.
Yun Liu averted her gaze, sat upright, and faced the front. She took out a tissue to dab the tears on her cheeks, and her tone was more stable when she remarked, ‘Yun Zhang, our immediate concern is figuring out how to shut Ding Pei’s mouth up. I never instructed her to do those things! But what if she insists that I did? Then, she’ll not only be screwing me over; she’ll be screwing over our family, too!”
Yun Zhang closed his eyes and thought, ‘Again with the “for our family” statement.’ Yun Liu knew him well and played a good hand; he finally understood what it meant to be cautious in taking action. He had to admit that even if it wasn’t for Yun Liu, for the Yun family, he still had to do his best to settle this matter. However, the first thing he thought of when Yun Liu got in trouble was to get her out, but Yun Liu obviously didn’t appreciate it—she thought that everything he did was for the sake of the Yun family..
