The Ancient Miss Transmigrates into a CEO’s Wife - Chapter 28
Chapter 28
Xu Xiuhe wore a black suit, black leather shoes, and exuded an aura that warned others to stay away as he walked into Wang Yupeng’s office.
When he reached the sofa, Xu Xiuhe’s aura changed, possibly because he was afraid of scaring Zhengzheng. He was no longer as cold, stern, and even angry as before. Shen Yin and Shu Yi were both amazed at how quickly someone could switch their aura.
The district chief of the Public Security Bureau also rushed over after receiving a message from Wang Yupeng, saying, “Mr. Xu, sorry, sorry, we haven’t welcomed you properly.”
Xu Xiuhe lowered his head to look at Shen Yin and asked, “How are you, did anything happen to you?”
Shen Yin did not speak, only shaking her head.
“Chief Duan, what do you think we should do?” There was a sense of oppression in Xu Xiuhe’s voice.
Duan Hao lowered his head and replied, “It’s been taken care of, just sign and you can go back.”
Given Xu Xiuhe’s status and position in Rongcheng, few people could match him, plus his connections with Xue Jingrui and Chang Zhiyuan, Duan Hao did not dare to slight him.
Xu Xiuhe signed on the sofa. Shen Yin had been staring at Xu Xiuhe’s writing since he sat down to sign. It was strong and powerful, clearly the writing of someone who had practiced calligraphy. As the legitimate daughter of the Marquis’s Mansion, Shen Yin had always been supervised by her tutor to practice writing, and she thought herself no amateur. But now, seeing Xu Xiuhe’s writing, she felt somewhat ashamed. Shen Yin thought that she didn’t know if her skills had been amplified since arriving in this world, and wondered if the calligraphy she could produce now would surpass Xu Xiuhe’s. In any case, she felt her martial arts skills were much stronger than in the Dasheng Dynasty.
After Xu Xiuhe finished signing, he took Zhengzheng from Shen Yin’s arms and said, “That’s it, let’s go back.”
Under the escort of Chief Duan, Officer Wang, and some junior police officers, the three adults and one child left the police station.
One young officer asked, “Chief Duan, Teacher, what is that man’s background? His aura is so big I didn’t even dare to breathe.”
Wang Yupeng replied, “Kid, don’t get involved in these things. Did any of the five people inside say anything?”Fiind upd𝒂ted 𝒏ovels on n𝒐/v/elbin(.)co/m
“No, they said some random nonsense that didn’t match up at all. I could see they were very nervous and didn’t dare to tell the truth. It seems like they committed the crime first.”
Wang Yupeng seemed to have thought of something and said, “Detain them first, we’ll deal with it later.”
If these people had robbed ordinary people, the case could have been closed immediately. But they happened to provoke the CEO’s wife of Zhiyuan Group and a famous actress, so the situation might not be that simple. They needed instructions from above on how to handle it.
Xu Xiuhe handed Zhengzheng to Shen Yin, got in the car, and turned around, “Get in the car, let’s go home first.”
Shen Yin looked at Shu Yi and said, “The things I bought are still in Shu Yi’s car.”
Only then did Xu Xiuhe get a clear look at what Shu Yi looked like. He had heard Shen Yin say yesterday that Shu Yi was coming to see her today, so when the police station called him, he passed this news to Chang Zhiyuan, since Shu Yi was an artist under his company after all.
“I’ll go get the stuff from the back of your car.” Xu Xiuhe got out of the car again and walked to the back of Shu Yi’s car.
Shu Yi had calmed down now, not as scared as before, but it was unlikely she felt like nothing had happened.
She thought she would help Xu Xiuhe grab the bags, and was about to go over when a Maserati stopped behind Xu Xiuhe and her cars. Without looking, Xu Xiuhe knew it was Chang Zhiyuan.
Sure enough, one of Chang Zhiyuan’s legs stepped out. White trousers, a pink floral shirt, sunglasses… While it looked quite tacky, it had a certain charm when worn by him.
Chang Zhiyuan took off his sunglasses, looking rather anxious as he asked, “What’s the situation, nothing happened right?” Aside from Shu Yi being an artist under his company that he would need to take responsibility for if something went wrong, he was also interested in her now, so of course he would be worried.
Shu Yi shook her head and said, “Nothing major happened.”
“Then let’s go back first,” Xu Xiuhe suggested.
“I’ll take you home,” Chang Zhiyuan said to Shu Yi, afraid she was still scared.
“My things are still at Shen Yin’s house.”
Shen Yin heard Shu Yi’s words from the car. Looking at her phone, she saw it was almost one o’clock. “You guys must be hungry. Shu Yi, why don’t you come to Ziyue Manor to eat something first before going home?”
Shu Yi thought about it and agreed. She was still a little shaken by the incident. The dagger in the hands of the man in black had almost injured Shen Yin. But Shen Yin seemed totally unperturbed, as if those men were nothing to her. She was only worried about scaring Zhengzheng.
The three cars raced down the road, arriving at Ziyue Manor in 40 minutes. The few of them entered the villa. Afraid that Zhengzheng was hungry, Shen Yin cooked the leftover dumplings from the morning for him to eat.
After eating, Zhengzheng fell asleep again. Shen Yin still needed to cook, so she placed the sleeping Zhengzheng in the rocking cot in the living room.
She had bought some vegetables in the morning, and there were also some vegetables left at home. Considering everyone was hungry, Shen Yin wanted to simply prepare something to fill their stomachs first. Shu Yi came over to help out as well. Chang Zhiyuan and Xu Xiuhe went upstairs to discuss today’s incident.
“Xiuhe, what do you make of this? Do you think the attack was aimed at one of those three, or was it just a failed robbery attempt?”
“It’s not clear yet. The police said there were five men in black, subdued by Shen Yin and Shu Yi.” Xu Xiuhe said.
“What the f**k, no way right?” Chang Zhiyuan was so shocked his mouth fell open. He couldn’t believe that two weak women, plus a child, could subdue five fierce thugs.
“I’m not sure either, but right now the five men in black are at the Rongguang District police station. According to people at the station, they received a report from Shu Yi and rushed to the underground parking lot of Rongguang Mall, where they found five men already beaten up on the ground while Shen Yin and Shu Yi had left. As for why they were at the police station later, it was because the police called and asked them to go back.”
“What about surveillance footage?”
“The surveillance cameras happened to malfunction right as Shen Yin entered Rongguang Mall.”
“So the only ones who know exactly what happened are the two of them?” Chang Zhiyuan asked.
“Yes. Let’s go down, they’ve probably finished cooking,” Xu Xiuhe said.
Chang Zhiyuan was already hungry and looked forward to the meal cooked by Shen Yin.
Downstairs, with Shu Yi’s help, Shen Yin had cooked pepper and beef noodles, stir-fried three dishes—not a lot, but in generous portions, enough for four people.
Shu Yi felt awkward when she saw Xu Xiuhe and Chang Zhiyuan. She wanted to avoid Chang Zhiyuan, but who knew such an incident would happen today.
At the dinner table, Chang Zhiyuan exclaimed that the pepper and beef noodles were the best noodles he had ever eaten. Shu Yi quite agreed with this statement.
“Shen Yin, Shu Yi, who do you think today’s attackers in black were targeting?” Xu Xiuhe asked.
Shen Yin and Shu Yi looked at each other and said, “It seemed they were going for Zhengzheng. At that time, Zhengzheng was standing next to me while we were putting the purchases in the trunk, then they rushed towards Zhengzheng.”
After Shen Yin finished speaking, it was Xu Xiuhe and Chang Zhiyuan’s turn to exchange looks. Xu Xiuhe and Shen Yin roughly guessed what was going on.
“Then how did you escape from their attack?” Chang Zhiyuan was still most concerned about this.
“Yinyin fought them off,” Shu Yi replied.
Xu Xiuhe and Chang Zhiyuan still did not believe that two unarmed women with a child could defeat five brawny men, and even injure them all severely. No matter what, they absolutely did not believe it.
Unless the video evidence was smashed in their faces.
Chang Zhiyuan carefully observed the expressions of Shen Yin and Shu Yi, trying to glean something from their faces. Just then, the phone in his pocket happened to ring.
“Mr. Chang, bad news!” his assistant said anxiously on the phone.
