Chapter 208 Collapse
After Zhang Qiaoyan was taken away by the people from the police station, she was detained in a cell within the station. Owing to the personal intervention of the commune secretary, the police comrades interrogated Zhang Qiaoyan once more.
As she was young and inexperienced, she honestly confessed again. Seeing no further issues, they sent her straight back to the cell, where two middle-aged women were also detained. One of them asked, "Girl, what did you do wrong?"
Zhang Qiaoyan suddenly broke down and cried, to which the woman said, "Why are you crying now? I didn’t bully you."
Zhang Qiaoyan felt that she would never be able to show her face again, not only had she become a laughingstock in the village, but she was also detained here. Now all she wanted was to go home, but why hadn’t her father come to save her yet?
The cries annoyed the other woman detained in the same room, who shouted, "Stop your damn crying, you’re annoying as hell. What’s the point of crying, huh? Cry one more time, and I swear I’ll beat you to death."
Scared by this, Zhang Qiaoyan didn’t dare to make a sound anymore and silently wept, hugging her knees.
She regretted it now. Why had she been so impulsive? She hadn’t hurt the person intended, but the ox had fallen down the mountain, and most importantly, she had gotten herself involved as well.
In Capital City, Yuan Weicheng was hurrying to Big Brother’s place. He was originally planning to go home today to visit his father, but before he left, he received a call from Lu Yichen, which nearly drove him to go there in person.
But Lu Yichen said he was watching over things there and that they couldn’t let their elderly father know about this matter, as it might upset him greatly.
So, to cover all bases, after the call, he also told Big Brother, asking him to put in a word as well, fearing that Luo Qiao, a young girl, might be bullied over there.
After leaving the military district, he didn’t go straight home but detoured to Big Brother’s place.
