Chapter 26：Things getting heated in the police station

Xinyi rushed to the police station the moment she learned about Zizi getting arrested.

Yunru...why did you do that? How did things get this worse?

She could imagine Zizi exploding like a volcano. She was already against this meeting and now Yunru arrested her.

Xinyi got a headache.

She knew how her brother's personality was but she never thought he would arrest Zizi on the date!

As she stepped into the station, she saw Han Huizhong and Zhiyuan already present with Yunru sitting in front of them.

"Yunru!"

"Hey, sis!" Yunru waved his hand. "Chill sis. You didn't have to run like a marathon."

She looked at him in dismay. She urgently said, "Yunru. Why did you do that? How could you arrest Zizi?"

Han Huizhong lazily smiled. "Calm down, granddaughter-in-law. I am having so much fun here. A member of the Han family getting arrested is such a rarity. Don't spoil it by asking for answers so soon."

"Zhiyuan...I am sorry on behalf of Yunru."

He smiled. "Don't be sorry, Xinyi. I know there must be a good reason for this so let's just all listen to him."

Xinyi thanked her stars for getting such an understanding husband.

She glared at Yunru.

Be thankful that he is being so patient!

Yunru rolled his eyes.

"Well, I guess I should bring the star of the day today."

A female police officer brought Zizi out. Her wrists were still locked by the handcuffs.

Zizi instantly teared up as she saw them and she cried. "Grandpa! Big bro! Thank God you came here! Just look at what Soo Yunru did to me! He-he put me in jail. For four hours I stayed in that rotten cell! He humiliated me so much in front of everyone. Please get me out of here…"

Yunru said, "Hey! The cells are not rotten, okay? The cleaning staff regularly do their cleaning work."

She glared at him. "Shut up!"

Tears streamed down her cheeks. "Grandpa. Did you see it? He talked rudely to me and even arrested me on our date when I did nothing wrong! And you wanted me to marry this man? He is nothing but a hooligan. He-he.. -"

Han Huizhong rubbed his ear. "Stop with all that crying, Zizi. So noisy. You are hurting my ears."

Zizi was in disbelief.

"G-grandpa...I am in such a state and you-"

"What state? Aren't you just fine? You look the same as you left this morning."

Same? How is this the same? I am a complete mess!

Even after everything, Grandpa is acting as if nothing has happened!

Zhiyuan pressed his space in between his brows.

Xinyi said, "Zizi, I am sorry for what-"

"Shut up! You just shut up!" She yelled. "You have done nothing but ruin our life! Why are you even here? To enjoy and laugh at my pathetic state?"

"No, I-"

Zhiyuan warned. "Zizi, enough. Don't blame Xinyi. She has got nothing to do with this."

"I won't stop, bro!" She glared at Xinyi, "You and your brother did this on purpose to humiliate me! I am always against you so you planned this to insult me and take your revenge! And now you are apologizing? Hah! Stop with the drama, you man-snatcher-"

Yunru loudly banged his hand on the table. "Yes, yes let's stop right there, shall we?" He dangerously smiled.

He looked at Han Huizhong and Zhiyuan and sneered. "And so this is your lovely granddaughter and sister's crimes - falsely defaming my precious sister. Her second charge is that she tried to slap a police officer on duty and the third charge is that she refused to cooperate with the law and obstructed justice."

Zizi gritted her teeth. "Defame? I was saying the truth."

"And without any evidence, such humiliation is counted as defamation, you ignorant and spoiled princess. It is punishable under the law."

Xinyi was shocked.

"Yunru! You arrested her just for that? Why?"

Yunru narrowed his eyes. "It isn't 'just' sis. You might feel that it's nothing but for me, it isn't. I won't tolerate anybody insulting you."

He took out his phone and played a recording.

It was Zizi's voice when she was talking about Xinyi.

"I will say it as many times as I want. Xinyi is a white lotus! She's a home-wrecker! A selfish man-snatcher! And a man-snatcher like her only knows how to trick and seduce men!"

Xinyi's lips stretched in a thin line.

Her heart still hurt knowing that once a good friend of hers nine years back could say such things about her today.

Those days when they were so happy...

Zhiyuan shot a glare at Zizi. Han Huizhong silently listened to everything.

Zizi froze.

This bastard recorded it?

Yunru smirked. "You don't have any evidence for defaming my sister but I have to put you in jail."

"You-"

"Zizi!" Zhiyuan felt disappointed in her. He knew she never liked Xinyi but to use such harsh language…

"Bro I was just…"

"Stop it, Zizi," For the first time Zhiyuan was angry now. He stood up, facing her. "How many times should I tell you to stop? It's already over between me and...her. Please stop insulting Xinyi all the time. It's high time that you accept her now."

"Accept her? She destroyed your life bro! Don't you see how evil she is?"

"Evil? Zizi, weren't you and Xinyi good friends in the past?"

Zizi sneered. "Yes and some good use she took of that friendship trying to approach you and then snatching you from Caihong!"

Yunru smiled. "Well as you all see, she doesn't seem to have any intentions to take her words back so she will have to stay a little longer in that 'rotten' cell."

Han Huizhong stood up. "Cool. If that is decided, then I will leave."

"G-Grandpa! Where are you going? You have to take me out of here!"

He sneered. "Take you out? Xinyi is my choice as the Han family's granddaughter-in-law. It's not just her you insulted but me as well. And Han Huizhong never takes any humiliation lying down. So, stay in jail until you learn to respect my choice, young lady."
