I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack

Chapter 450 - 450 His Guilt!



450 His Guilt!

The scene was in chaos. No one had expected that the drunken man would suddenly become violent, especially right in front of the entrance of the special department’s police station.

Jing Zhen had been hiding in the car all along. As a rising star who began to gain attention, he didn’t want to appear in front of the reporters’ cameras. However, upon seeing this scene, his pupils shrank slightly and a flash of anger appeared on his face.

...

Instinctively, he wanted to open the car door and rush over, but a figure was faster than him.

The person rushed into the crowd and arrived in front of Shen Ruojing, shielding her in his arms and using his back to absorb the most malicious attacks from the group of people.

At this moment, Chu Cichen was full of heartache and regret.

He shouldn’t have said anything more to Dugu Xiao just now. He should have been at Shen Ruojing’s side instead.

Also, he didn’t expect Zheng Yi, the captain of the special department’s second team, would be so insensitive. Shen Ruojing was right next to him, so how could he let someone hit her?!

Zheng Yi was also a little bewildered.

He was about to speak, but a team member behind him already spoke up, “Miss Shen, he was just too emotional. Do you want us to hold him responsible? If you do, we’ll arrest him. But if you don’t, we’ll let him go…”

Shen Yuansong angrily interrupted, “We must investigate! There is right and wrong, and the law will judge it! If everyone privately vents their anger whenever something happens, then what’s the point of the court? What’s the point of having a special department? Zheng Yi, I’m asking you. Did my granddaughter break the law?!”

Faced with Shen Yuansong’s righteous words, Zheng Yi pursed his lips and said, “No.”

“In that case, he clearly didn’t take the law enforcement officers seriously when he attacked in front of the special department. Why aren’t you investigating?” Shen Yuansong pressed.

Zheng Yi’s chin tightened.

Meanwhile, the reporters were pleading on behalf of the drunkard. “He had too much to drink. Can we just let this incident go?”

“Yeah, he’s already very pitiful…”

“His fiancée died. If we put ourselves in his shoes, we can imagine how sad he must be. Look at his current state – he’s wretched and even mentally unstable. It’s too cruel to judge him in this state, isn’t it?”

As the reporters were discussing among themselves, Chu Cichen looked toward Shen Ruojing and said, “Jingjing…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Shen Ruojing’s indifferent voice sounded, “Let it go.”

“…”

Chu Cichen did not refute her words.

He understood her guilt.

Pursuing the drunkard at this time would only deepen her sense of guilt.

Zheng Yi and the others also fell silent. They felt very conflicted.

They had originally thought that the No. 5 Neurotoxin was invented by a big shot in the Doom organization, so they had put in a lot of effort to catch that demon.

But in the end, the fact was that Shen Ruojing was forced to develop it.

This sudden revelation took away their strong hatred, leaving them directionless.

When Zheng Yi took the case file from Jing Zhen to verify its authenticity, they all hoped that it was fake.

That way, all their efforts over the years would not have been in vain.

However, the result was hard for them to accept!

Even though they knew that Shen Ruojing was innocent, they still harbored hatred and resentment toward her.

However, everything changed when they saw her being hit on the head by the drunkard, and her injury was so bad to the extent that they could see bone. Her forehead would require at least several stitches…

Even so, Shen Ruojing didn’t pursue the matter any further.

Due to this, for the first time, the members of the special department felt that Shen Ruojing might not be so detestable after all.

Zheng Yi took a deep breath and said, “Miss Shen, I thank you on his behalf.”

After speaking, Zheng Yi looked at the reporters.

He had not wanted to speak up for Shen Ruojing, but at this moment, seeing the young girl being hit, he felt a twinge of guilt in his heart.

He then took a step forward and declared loudly, “The No. 5 Neurotoxin was developed by Miss Shen Ruojing under duress to protect herself! After our investigation, the evidence is clear that she is innocent! I guarantee this as a member of the special department, and I swear in my personal capacity that the above statements are all true!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the reporters began taking pictures of Shen Ruojing and recording the scene.

Their attitude was no longer as resolute and opposed as before.

The people present breathed a sigh of relief.

With Zheng Yi’s endorsement and his declaration being so confident, the reporters would no longer have any doubts…

Public opinion would surely be on Shen Ruojing’s side.

Chu Cichen took Shen Ruojing’s hand and said, “Jingjing, let’s go home.”

This time, neither the reporters nor the victims’ families tried to stop them.

Shen Ruojing then got into the car under Chu Cichen’s protection.

Standing at a distance, Dugu Xiao looked at them blankly.

His gaze fell on the wound on Shen Ruojing’s forehead, and he tightly clenched his fists, feeling endless guilt and self-blame in his heart!

As he watched Shen Ruojing get into the car and leave with Chu Cichen, he took a step forward but then stopped.

Would 518 hate him for being misunderstood? She had almost been killed by him, but she still didn’t reveal that she was 518, not acknowledging him

Dugu Xiao took a step back, silently got into his car, and returned to his lodging in the capital city.

Throughout the journey, he remained silent.

It wasn’t until he returned home and stumbled through the door that the women in red dresses with golden masks rushed over to him. “517, you’re back?”

Dugu Xiao suddenly turned his head and coldly looked at the women. His lips curled as he walked to the wine cabinet. “Take a bottle each.”

The women didn’t understand, but they each took a bottle of wine and stood in a row in front of him. Dugu Xiao then stared at them and suddenly pointed to his forehead. “Come on, hit me here.”

Hearing this, the women were all stunned and none of them dared to move.

“Hit me!” Dugu Xiao suddenly shouted.

However, all the women took a step back, too scared to do anything. But then, Leng Ling upstairs suddenly picked up a wine bottle and smashed it hard on his forehead.

“Bang!”

The bottle hit his forehead and then fell to the ground with a crisp sound. After that, the warm red liquid slowly trickled down, mixed with severe pain. Dugu Xiao then lowered his gaze.

(So this is how painful it is…)

When he saw 518 standing there, being judged and questioned by everyone, and being hit by a wine bottle, she appeared so carefree… Now, he was the same as 518.

He curled his lips and suddenly burst into a low laugh. As he laughed, tears suddenly rolled down his cheeks.

He then looked at the group of women, walked to the butler’s side, and said, “Get out, make these people all leave!”

The butler was confused. “Should they go back to their own rooms first?”

“No, let them go home.”

“Sir, what about the future?”

“They don’t have to come here anymore.”

“…Okay.”

The women didn’t complain and they packed their luggage before leaving.

The villa soon became quiet.

Dugu Xiao held a bottle of wine and began to drink. In the midst of his drunken throes, Leng Ling suddenly appeared before him.

Dugu Xiao looked at her and suddenly spoke, “Did you know long ago that she didn’t die?”

Leng Ling didn’t say anything.

Dugu Xiao lifted his head again and finished the bottle of wine. “Say, why do you think I’m so retarded and such a b*stard?”

His eyes were red. “I actually did such a thing to her! Right now, what face do I have to appear before her again?”

Leng Ling calmly replied, “In that case, don’t appear before her again and vanish from her life. Give her an ordinary life. This might be the last thing you can do for her.”

Dugu Xiao stood there stunned.

Leng Ling turned and just when she was about to leave…

Dugu Xiao suddenly asked in a low voice, “Can me and her both return to the past?”

“There’s no way to go back to the past in life.”

Dugu Xiao no longer spoke.

That night, he only felt loneliness as though the entire world had abandoned him.

After that, he got the butler to drive him to the Chu Manor. The car was parked far away from the Chu Manor, and he stared at it from a distance. He really wanted to go in so he could fight together with 527 and 518 once more.

However, he didn’t dare to. At this moment, he didn’t even dare to let Shen Ruojing know that he already knew the truth.

He waited outside the Chu Manor for an entire night.

In his mind, scenes of their training and missions in the past appeared. At that time, all of them were young. But now, he could no longer return…

He didn’t know when he fell asleep. But in the morning, he was awakened by his ringing phone.

He then picked up the call only to hear Chu Cichen’s icy voice coming from the other end. “How many more plans did you prepare? Why are you not stopping?! Do you really want to force her to her death before you will be satisfied?!”
