Chapter 43: Am I a Coward?

t the airport just as the final announcement was made over the loudspeaker. 。Only when I got off the plane did I see that Wang Yan and Ane had both sent me WeChat messages. 。Wang Yan: Did you go to Be...Zuo Yu'an today was like he'd been drugged, going after everyone with a murderous intent. He took down the bodyguard in just a few moves.

Zhuo Yu'an was completely out of control, continuing to beat Xu Tao mercilessly until someone gently tugged at the corner of his shirt.

"Enough, stop causing trouble, it's not worth getting sued for this kind of person."

The familiar voice was calm and collected. Zhuo Yu'an stopped, turned to look at Shu Tinglan beside him, her hair was loose, she was wrapped in his coat, looking empty, her face was pale, but her eyes were calm.

Zhuo Yu'an slowly, slowly restrained the murderous aura all over his body, as if it had taken a great deal of effort. His palms trembled slightly.

"Hmm." A very low, drawn-out word.

Although this teahouse was Xu Tao's territory, it was mostly staffed by tea masters. When they saw Xu Tao and his bodyguard knocked down, no one dared to step forward. Perhaps a customer had called the police, because soon an ambulance arrived.

The tea room was in chaos for a moment. Xu Tao was beaten to the brink of death. When the police car arrived, he seemed to come back to life and touched the blood on his face as if by a flash of inspiration.

"Catch him, catch him."

The bodyguard, also covered in blood, helped him up and told the police that Zhu Yuxuan had done it.

At this moment, Zhuo YUAN and Shu Tinglan stood side by side, their expressions calm, even their eyes were devoid of any ripples, quietly watching the two blood-soaked figures.

"Mr. Tao" The police officer recognized Xu Tao and his attitude immediately changed. He turned around and looked at Zhuo Yu'an and Shu Tinglan as if interrogating suspects.

"How did you do"

Silence. No one answered.

"Dumbstruck, weren't you just a moment ago Was it you guys who beat him up" The police officer had a terrible attitude.

Zuo Yu'an glanced at the police car, his tone dismissive.

"Everything is being handled by my lawyer."

He was still a civilized person, unaware of the darkness in Qixing City. The police laughed after hearing this.

"Alright, then I ask you to come with us to the police station."

"Don't waste words with him, just grab him. I want him to rot in jail, no leniency whatsoever." Xu Tao shouted.

"Tao, would you like to go to the hospital for a check-up first I'll have someone go to the hospital to take your statement later."

"No, I'm going to the police station with you."

Shū Tínglan suddenly said

"I need to get checked for injuries."

The police officer looked at her with a puzzled expression. What was she up to now She seemed the most normal one in the whole room. Where were the injuries

Shu Tinglan unbuttoned several buttons on her coat, revealing snow-white skin underneath. Several marks left by Xu Tao's bites were especially conspicuous.

"Xu Tao assaulted me first. This is the evidence. I need a medical examination and comparison to solidify the evidence."

She was unnervingly calm, showing no fear of being violated.

As soon as she said that, Xu Tao exploded.

"Damn your mother, you even got your pants off, and you still got **ed by her mother. I get so angry just thinking about it, she was as stiff as a corpse just now, fiddling around for ages couldn't even take her pants off, then got lifted up from behind and beaten the ** out of."

"Watch your mouth." Zhuo Yu'an wanted to punch again, but Shu Tinglan stopped him.

"Alright, let's get you checked for injuries. Come on, let's go to the police station."

One person followed the police into the patrol car. Zhuo Yúan was silent, Shu Tinglan was also silent, Xu Tao probably didn't speak because of the pain from his wound, only the bodyguard kept grumbling.

"How did you get here" Shu Tinglan asked Zhu YUAN calmly after getting into the car.

He truly appeared as if from the heavens just now. A person who should have been abroad, even upon returning to China, would have gone back to Senzhou. How could he suddenly appear in Qining, at that crucial moment, in that teahouse

"Hmm." Zhu Yu'an was unusually taciturn. No matter what Shen Lan said, he didn't answer, as if he hadn't come out of his previous emotions yet.

Shu Tinglan couldn't fathom his thoughts. His appearance in Qining City baffled her, especially coupled with his previous rage and current silence.

She was the one being bullied, what was he so angry about

The police car quickly took them to the police station. From afar, they could see dozens of people standing in front of the station, likely Xu Tao's subordinates there to show support.

"In Qinyin, no one dares to mess with me. Tinglan, you really make Uncle Tao heartbroken."

As he said this, he reached out with his other hand to pinch Shu Tinglan's face.

"Get out."

Zhuo Yu'an grabbed Xu Tao's wrist, his eyes fierce. Xu Tao let out another cry of pain as his wrist was almost crushed.

Shu Tinglan hurried to pull Zhuo Yu'an, fearing something might happen again. After all, with dozens of Xu Tao's men and the police officers at the police station clearly favoring Xu Tao, things wouldn't go well for him in Qining. Even if he had connections in Senzhou, it wouldn't work there either.

Today I can only bear it. The most important thing is to leave Qining safely.

Zhuo Yu'an was pulled by her arm and finally let go of Xu Tao's wrist.

"Who the hell are you, just wait and see. You all saw it, he was the one who made the first move!" Xu Tao shouted to the police ahead.

"Yes, Mr. Tao. We've arrived at the police station. We will definitely get you justice."

The police didn't want to make a big deal out of it. With so many people gathered in front of the police station, the situation was already quite disruptive, so they could only appease Xu Tao for now.

Shu Tinglan couldn't help but feel a bit nervous. When she communicated with Director Xiao in the morning, she hadn't expected that just meeting with the labor union representatives in the afternoon would lead to this situation, let alone involve Zhuo Yu'an.

Though Zhuo Yu'an has achieved great success in his career, he has spent many years abroad and is fundamentally ignorant of the domestic situation, let alone the darkness of Qining. A man with such an indomitable spirit, who knows what outrageous things he might do next

A hero doesn't suffer a loss in front of him, so when he got off the police car, Shu Tinglan softly said to him.

"Just keep quiet for a while and take the blame for everything. This has nothing to do with you anyway."

She didn't want to implicate him, it would be best if she could get him out of this.

Zhuo Yu'an heard her words, stood there in disbelief, staring at her without saying a word.

Shu Tinglan continued.

"Your identity is at stake here. If this goes to court, it could badly damage Zhuo Yuan Technology's reputation. Qi Ning isn't as simple as you think. Wait a while, and no matter what the police ask you, don't answer. At least don't tell them your real name."

She was also facing this kind of situation for the first time, not knowing how to solve it, she just instinctively didn't want to involve Zhuo Yu'an.

"Shu Tinglan, in your eyes, am I a coward, someone who is afraid of trouble"

Besides, you're a lawyer. Are you sure you want to deceive the police and not tell them your real name

Zuo Yu'an asked in a cold voice, Shu Tinglan was stunned for a moment before finally saying...

"Then just put all the blame on me, and say I ordered it."

Zhuo Yu'an let out a cold snort, ignored her any further, and strode into the police station first. The temperature around him seemed to drop several degrees.

He completely ignored Shu Tinglan's advice just now. When the police asked for personal information, he answered directly without any reservation.re at all.The hospital's surveillance system and drug traceability and distribution system were sponsored by him for free a few years ago. This time, he came to upgrade these systems. The technical de...
