Chapter 80: He Seems to Be Here

The hickeys on Xing Shu’s neck were definitely not by Cheng Xingyang—he had been in a very bad mood for the past two days. It seemed that Xing Shu had really scr*wed around. Xing Linlin was over the moon. She felt that even the heavens were on her side. Xing Shu was sullied now. Who else would want her? Moreover, she had offended the Liu and Feng families.
Xing Linlin whipped out her cell phone and secretly sent a message to Liu Chun: “Liu Chun, I’m sorry. It’s not that I don’t want to help you this time. I tried my best to get the Xing family to the police station, but Xing Shu refused to budge. Xing Shu’s mother has fainted from anger. I have to go to the hospital. What are you going to do next?”
Liu Chun was very touched when she saw this message. Compared to the culprit—Xing Shu, Xing Linlin was simply an angel.
Liu Chun: “I have to ask Liu Xiangru for help. I hope she can convince Nie Heng to talk to Cheng Lang. It’s been hard on you. Is Aunt Wu alright?”
Xing Linlin did not reply immediately. Instead, she deliberately waited for more than 10 minutes before replying: “I don’t know the situation yet. I have to go. Sigh, Xing Shu is very unreasonable this time.”
When Liu Chun saw Xing Shu’s name, her eyes turned bloodshot. Indeed, that b*tch, Xing Shu. How dare she refuse to give in at all despite so manypeople’s intervention! She snorted coldly. Just wait, she will find someone more powerful to give her the works next time! It would not just only be photoshopped photographs and disfigurement the next time. She would make a video ofXing Shu being gang-raped and disseminate it throughout Beijing. That would teach her a lesson!
Despite the vicious thoughts, Liu Chun was flustered at the police at her door.
After being taken into custody, her hatred for Xing Shu and Feng Jian compounded. But it did not matter; she had already informed Liu Xiangru. Although Liu Chun was not favored in the Liu family, she often visited Liu Xiangru. Liu Xiangru would definitely not leave her in the lurch.
The atmosphere at the police station was weird after Wu Minxia and the others left. Xing Shu leaned against the wall and closed her eyes in lassitude. She was very tired and wanted to rest, but the police said that Liu Chun was already on the way. She did not know Liu Chun, so there must be a mastermind behind her. She had to take this opportunity to find out who was behind this.
Xing Shu’s eyelashes trembled twice, and her fingers curled up weakly before slowly relaxing. After a while, she heard footsteps coming from the entrance of the police station again but she no longer had the strength to look up. She closed her eyes in lassitude. She knew that many people were staring at her neck and felt that she was promiscuous. The man who was handcuffed took the opportunity to mock her. “You’re really seducing men all over. No wonder people want to disfigure you.” He taunted, while at the same time, fantasizing about stripping Xing Shu naked.
Xing Shu felt very cold. The coldness spread from the soles of her feet, freezing her from inside out.
The footsteps at the door were closer. Someone called out respectfully,
“President Cheng, why are you here personally?”
Xing Shu tried her best to open her eyes, but she could only see a blurry silhouette. A warm palm landed on her forehead, emitting warmth. She couldn’t help but rub against it. Then, she felt her body being pulled into someone’s arms.
“Young Uncle?” Recognizing the familiar scent, Xing Shu’s stiff shoulders suddenly relaxed. She called out hoarsely and leaned against his chest affectionately.
Cheng Lang did not respond. His expression was cold, and the temperature in the room dropped to freezing point. No one dared to look up at him. He carried Xing Shu into the car parked outside. Xing Shu curled up in his arms and frowned in pain.
His warm palm seemed to be holding her foot. Xing Shu was afraid of dirtying Cheng Lang’s hand, so she quickly curled up. “Dirty…” She did not know if this was a dream or reality… She only felt dazed and light-headed.
Xing Shu remembered that Cheng Lang was on a business trip and would not be here. She yearned for him to be here, but was reined in by her rationality to not have him come. She was afraid that the protective wall she had painstakingly built would collapse the moment he appeared.
Someone once said that if a person’s life was very bitter, it would require a lot of sweetness to counteract the bitterness. But the person who said this did not know that for someone who had suffered since she was young and had never known love, a little warmth was enough to satisfy her. To Xing Shu, Cheng Lang was like a candy laced with arsenic. Even though she knew that taking a bite would kill her, she was still tempted to reach out for a taste… because this was the only candy she had..
