“So many people were watching, and I was beaten up so badly. Now you’re telling me to forget it. How could you do this? Did you take someone’s money to help them on purpose!”
Qiao Anxin was furious.
The policeman was still talking to her politely, but his expression darkened when he heard that.
The policeman said coldly, “What are you talking about? You’re openly framing a police officer. Do you believe we’ll detain you now?”
“Did I say something wrong!” Qiao Anxin looked up and growled at him. “I was beaten up so badly. If you didn’t detain those people who hit me and sentence them, I wouldn’t have minded, but now you’re punishing me.
“Aren’t you receiving benefits by doing this?”
“Miss Jiang, I’m warning you again. Don’t slander the law-enforcement officers without any evidence. Your injury has been verified to not even have reached the level of a minor injury. You’re still far from being beaten up badly.
“Also, you said that you didn’t fight with anyone, but a few of the students were indeed injured. The witness has also confirmed that you were fighting and not beaten up unilaterally.
“We police officers are very fair. You can pay the fine and leave immediately. If you continue to create trouble, we don’t mind keeping you at the police station for a while longer.”
Qiao Anxin was indignant and wanted to say more, but she was also afraid that the police would really detain her.
Hence, no matter how angry and indignant she was, she could only follow the policeman’s instructions and pay the fine.
…
After paying the fine, Qiao Anxin walked out of the police station with a swollen face.
Lin Huizhen was waiting for her outside.
The moment she saw her, she immediately went forward and grabbed her arm, crying. “Anxin, they didn’t make things difficult for you, right? Those little bastards are inhuman. How could they beat you up like this? You must get the police to arrest them and lock them up in jail!”
“What jail? The police said that we fought each other and got us to pay our own fines before letting them go.” Qiao Anxin gritted her teeth. She felt even more upset when she heard Lin Huizhen’s cries. She yelled at her impatiently, “What are you crying for? You only know how to cry. I’m so annoyed.”
Lin Huizhen stopped crying.
“Why, why is it like this…” Lin Huizhen saw that Qiao Anxin was in a bad mood and spoke cautiously. “They’ve already beaten you up, why aren’t the police arresting them?”
“How, you say?” Qiao Anxin sneered. “It’s all because I’m not as lucky as Qiao Mianmian to have such powerful parents to support her.
“If I was also a daughter of the Bai family, would I have to suffer all these grievances? If I was a daughter of the Bai family, I could have anything I want. I could live a glorious life, and no one would dare to disrespect me.”
She almost succeeded that time.
If her identity hadn’t been exposed, everything Qiao Mianmian had now would be hers..
