They told the police what happened.
In summary, this group of people claimed that Chen Guo had robbed a girl’s money, and they had come to help that girl seek justice.
Mei Jing, being impulsive, saw a group of burly men surrounding Chen Guo, a lone girl, and thought the boys were bullying her. So, he rushed in and started fighting with them.
Fortunately, Mei Jing had been exercising with Mei Shu recently. Besides, these people didn’t want to escalate the situation, so they held back during the scuffle; otherwise, with Mei Jing’s slender arms and legs, he would’ve ended up being pinned down and beaten!
Mei Shu could tell that the police were somewhat speechless after understanding the details.
Feeling a bit embarrassed herself, she took the initiative with a good attitude, “I hope the police can find out the truth. If Chen Guo really robbed someone, I’ll take responsibility for all the consequences caused by my brother to the other party. But of course, if Chen Guo is innocent, then Mei Jing just wanted to stand up for what is right, so I hope the police can go easy on him.”
The police nodded helplessly. “Okay, let’s investigate.”
He pointed to the tattooed boy, “You said your sister was robbed by her. Do you know the specific location?”
“Meihe Street,” the tattooed boy replied promptly.
The police looked bewildered, “On the main street? Can you be more specific?”
“Um…” The tattooed boy hesitated this time, scratching his head in embarrassment. “My sister was too scared when she came back yesterday, and I didn’t ask for details. But I’m not lying! My sister and her go to the same school, so she couldn’t have mistaken her!”
Now the police were in a dilemma. He spread his hands, “Meihe Street is too large an area. If I have to investigate step by step, it will take a lot of time. Why don’t you call your sister and confirm the specific address and the time of the incident?”
“Okay, okay!” The tattooed boy quickly went out to make a call. As he passed by Chen Guo, he gave her a glare.
Chen Guo looked scared and guilty, huddling behind Mei Jing. She appeared harmless and innocent, even Mei Shu almost believed she was truly innocent.
The tattooed boy didn’t keep them waiting for long. He returned soon, somewhat embarrassed, “My sister knows about my trouble and is coming over in a hurry. Can you wait for her to explain when she arrives?”
“Alright, you both go sit over there and wait for a while,” the police said, then warned Mei Jing again, “No loud noise, and absolutely no fighting in the police station!”
“I know,” Mei Jing replied impatiently, finding a corner to sit and rest.
After a night of commotion, he now had a headache, leaning against the wall and rubbing his head. Perhaps he had been hit by those people just now.
Mei Shu walked over with concern, “Are you okay? Let me see.”
As she spoke, she reached out and indeed found a big bump on the back of Mei Jing’s head.
Mei Shu sighed deeply, “Let’s go to the hospital later and have it checked.”
“No need, sis, I’m really fine. You should sit down and rest for a while too.”
Mei Jing’s voice was exhausted, but he lazily opened his eyes and glanced towards the door, “Sis, do you know that guy? He’s been following us.”
Hearing this, Mei Shu remembered that Ye Yan had also come along this time. She immediately got up, feeling annoyed, and walked over, “You saw it yourself, I’ll probably be busy for a while. You should go back first. I’ll treat you to dinner another day.”
Ye Yan shrugged indifferently, “Since I’m already here, I’ll stay and see if you need any help.”
He glanced discreetly at the police, then leaned in and whispered to her ear, “Actually, I have a friend working in the police station. If you agree to go for supper with me later, I’ll ask my friend to help ensure your brother returns home safely and without trouble. How about it?”
Mei Shu coldly refused, “No need, thanks for the offer, but I don’t think it’s appropriate to abuse power at this time. Children need to learn a lesson when they make mistakes.”
Ye Yan exaggeratedly made a surprised expression, “I didn’t expect you to be such a stern sister. Fortunately, my sister isn’t as ruthless as you, otherwise, I would’ve suffered a lot growing up.”
Mei Shu listened to his words with a cold smile, “Perhaps if you had suffered a bit earlier in life, you would’ve become a better person and made fewer mistakes?”
“Are you saying there’s something wrong with my personality?” Ye Yan looked particularly hurt, clutching his chest, “You don’t even give me a chance to prove myself before denying my character! You’re so decisive! It’s so unfair!”
Mei Shu watched him act with cold eyes, expressionless, “If our two families really need to do business together, I’ll use my means to understand you. But for now, it doesn’t seem necessary.”
“Who knows,” Ye Yan shrugged, dropping his playful expression, and spoke seriously, “Maybe we’ll become partners tomorrow?”
