Chapter 20: The Policewoman’s Pants Are Torn
Zhang Lu reined in her anger and calmed herself down. If it were a man standing before her, she wouldn’t hesitate for a second to beat him up first and talk later. However, she couldn’t afford to tarnish her reputation by attacking a defenseless woman.
She looked at Ye Fan and said in a businesslike manner, "Ye Fan, you were driving without a license and recklessly charged down the wrong way, causing significant disruption to traffic. Please come with me to the station to give a statement and clarify the whole situation."
"No one was killed, so why trouble my friend with such a trivial matter at the police station? I’ve already sent people to handle this, so there’s no need for you to go out of your way," Chu Mengyao said mildly.
To others, this might be a big deal, but to the Chu Group, it was utterly insignificant.
Zhang Lu was frustrated, ignoring Chu Mengyao and just wanting to take Ye Fan away for questioning. She hadn’t expected Chu Mengyao to be so unreasonable.
"As a citizen, it is your duty to cooperate with the police. Surely President Chu understands this basic principle?" Zhang Lu remarked with restrained anger and significant meaning.
"We also have the right not to fulfill our obligations. Can the police force us to do anything? If we’re in a good mood, cooperating with the police is not impossible, but if we’re not, we couldn’t care less about such obligations." Chu Mengyao was decidedly cold.
Zhang Lu recognized that Chu Mengyao was deliberately giving her a hard time. It was hopeless to try taking Ye Fan away.
