“Chen Keming, who gave you the audacity to take Luo Anning away!?!” Rong Yan kicked Chen Keming mercilessly with a daunting expression on his face.
Chen Keming smiled conscientiously after being kicked. He then said servilely, “Young Master Rong, we only arrested Young Madam Rong after receiving some orders from the higher ups. Back then, the First Lady was out to meet a friend and she said that the incident was horrifying. She also wanted us to conduct a thorough investigation on the case and prosecute the murderer… ”
“Did you guys see her killing anyone?” Rong Yan tried his best to suppress his anger.
“The surveillance cameras at the crime scene captured Young Madam pushing the deceased off the rooftop… There were also plenty of witnesses who claimed that Young Madam had gotten into an argument with the victim and so, Young Madam’s motive was established. The superiors ordered us to arrest her,” said Chen Keming whose heart pounded rapidly in fear. He could not afford to offend the saintly Rong Yan at all. However, he was more terrified of the First Lady. Once he makes a mistake, the consequences would be terrible.
Rong Yan frowned, clearly not expecting things to be that serious. He barked angrily, “Where is Luo Anning? I want to bail her. Release her immediately!”
“Young Madam Rong has just been interrogated and she’s in the detention room now… Young Master Rong… um, the situation is very serious now. We’ve already pinned Young Madam Rong as the murderer but she’s yet to plead guilty. I’m afraid… I’m afraid you can’t bail her out…” Chen Keming said fearfully in a shaky voice.
“Get lost! I insist on bailing Luo Anning out. I can effortlessly destroy this police station with the lift of a finger!” Rong Yan hollered. He grabbed Chen Keming by the collar and commanded, “Take me to the detainment room!”
Although Chen Keming had encountered all kinds of criminals and weathered all sorts of storms before, he was still intimidated by Rong Yan’s stern and murderous expression. He frantically nodded and brought the latter to the detainment room.
Upon arriving at the detainment room, Rong Yan kicked Chen Keming angrily and stared at Luo Anning who was seated on the ground.
Upon hearing the noises, Luo Anning slowly raised her head, only to see the angry expression on Rong Yan’s face. Why is he here? she wondered.
Could it be that he had already found out about me being accused of Ou Lixue’s murder?
He must detest me for smearing the Rong Family’s name instead of bringing them glory.
The stock prices of Baina International are definitely going to plunge now that I have been accused of murder.
She stared at Rong Yan in shock as her mind was filled with thoughts. However, Rong Yan kept his gloomy eyes fixed on the icy cold handcuffs that were around her slender wrists.
The two of them looked at each other through the bars, one standing still like a deity while the other seated on the ground pathetically, remaining silent.
“Open the door!” Rong Yan instructed Chen Keming while staring at Luo Anning.
Chen Keming dared not reject him and hence hurriedly got the police officers to open the door with the key.
At the instant that the door was opened, Rong Yan entered, not bothered by the filth at all. He walked towards Luo Anning and stared at her from above. Her heartbeat slowed down and she stared at him, waiting for him to lose his temper.
However, the storm that she had expected did not happen.
Rong Yan pulled her up from the ground and held onto her clammy hand. Caressing her haggard face with his other hand, he asked, “Does your hand hurt?”
