“Can you get us in to see Xiang Yang first? I’m worried about her.” Yun Nan knew that some things were beyond her ability, so she would only focus on Xiang Yang right now.

“Don’t worry, Xiang Yang will be fine. The police also know Shi Ke’s identity. They won’t mistreat her,” Shi Nian replied very calmly.

When they arrived at the mediation room, Yun Nan saw an angry-looking Shi

Gao, who’d cried so hard she ruined her makeup. The young man beside Shi Gao, with one hand holding his head and a pained expression, should be her cousin, Chen An.

Shi Corporation’s Lavvyer Yang stood up as soon as Shi Nian entered. Shi Nian nodded at him. Shi Gao glanced at them and sneered, “Second Young Master Shi, I don’t want to make things difficult for you, but look! Xiang Yang injured my cousin to this extent! Don’t think we’ll just swallow our anger! You can’t simply force us to drop this, no matter how powerful the Shi family is!”

“What are you trying to say, Ms. Shi? Bringing up my family’s power at the police station; are you trying to accuse my family of working above the law?” Shi Nian detachedly stated. “You think too highly of us; our Shi family doesn’t have such power! Sir, if your injury is serious, why don’t we go to the hospital and check it out first? The bandaging done on your head is too sloppy. If an accident occurs because you’ve delayed treatment, then I might think you’re purposefully worsening your injuries.

Shi Gao was stunned by Shi Nian’s cold and imposing manner. They had eaten together a few times, but Gu Man was the one who was always trying to interact with Shi Nian—Shi Gao was just there to accompany her. She could tell Shi Nian wasn’t interested in Gu Man every time they met, but at least he wasn’t as cold as the rumors said. If he had always maintained this aggressive and frosty demeanor, Gu Man might not have dared to have any improper thoughts about him.

Shi Gao now felt slightly regretful that she’d offended the Shi family, especially Shi Nian. Things didn’t seem to be good for her.

Shi Nian didn’t even bother looking at Shi Gao anymore. He directly said to the police officer, “Officer, we are Xiang Yang’s relatives. Please do everything by the book and give out whatever punishment is due. Our Shi family will certainly actively cooperate.”

The young police officer immediately had a good impression of Shi Nian when he heard this. He was already quite annoyed by that unreasonable young lady. He’d asked her to recount the incident at the bar, but she made up a bunch of nonsense, saying that the woman who’d hit her cousin was a piece of trash who went about seducing men everywhere and had a terrible private life. He’d never seen such a crazy woman. She would have kept ranting if Mr. Shi hadn’t shown up.

The police officer stood up and politely replied, “Don’t worry, we will definitely handle everything impartially.”

Chen An grunted. “I don’t want any compensation. All I want is for that woman to go to jail.”

Yun Nan frowned. “Sir, do you know that woman?”

Immersed in his pain and acting, Chen An casually answered, “I don’t know her!”

Yun Nan stared at Chen An and questioned, “Then why did she hit you? And with such force, too.”

Chen An froze, realizing he’d said the wrong thing. He could only adamantly repeat the answer he’d given to the police earlier, “How would I know? I just asked her if I could take the seat next to her. That’s all I did, and she hit me!”

Yun Nan frowned once more as she commented, “Oh? If that’s the case, then that woman must be mentally ill. Normal people don’t hit someone theyve just met. Lawyer Yang, correct me if I’m mistaken, but those mentally ill aren’t legally liable even if they’d killed someone, let alone beat someone up, right?”

Lawyer Yang smiled and nodded. He was just waiting for the police to process the bail procedures, anyway. Since he had nothing to do, he was more than happy to go along with the Second Young Madam.

Yun Nan said to Chen An, “Hey, did you hear that? That was a professional’s answer. She’s not liable for your injury.”

Chen An quickly uttered, “No, that’s not what happened. I just wanted to get to know her, so I chatted with her, but she got annoyed and hit me with a wine bottle! There’s nothing wrong with her mentally!”

Yun Nan smiled. “Oh, so there’s nothing wrong with her. Then, sir, I take it you were acting like a hoodlum? If you didn’t cross the line, a girl drinking in a bar wouldn’t hit a man’s head with a bottle even if she’d drank too much!”

“That’s b*llsh*t! I didn’t act like a hoodlum! I just saw that she was alone and wanted to be friends with her. She ignored me, so 1—” Chen An suddenly stopped talking.

Yun Nan pinned Chen An with her gaze and sneered, “So you what? That woman ignored you, so what did you say or do that got you beaten up by a girl,

“Yun Nan, that’s enough! Stop bullying him! Can’t you see the wound on my cousin’s head? Xiang Yang caused that, and that’s a fact. How are you going to deny that?” Shi Gao spoke up. She didn’t expect Yun Nan to suddenly try to get information from Chen An, and Chen An was completely overwhelmed by her..
