"Watch your eyes and your mouth. If you keep doing this, I'll mind slapping you a few more times."
Mu Xiaoyu might be soft-hearted in front of Li Chenxu, but that doesn't mean she'll act the same way in front of others. Besides, Qiangzi hurt Li Chenxu, and that's a grudge she's held against him. If they weren't in the police station right now, she would have done much more than just slap Qiangzi.
"What nonsense."
Li Chenxu then grabbed Mu Xiaoyu's hand, took out a silk handkerchief and gently wiped Mu Xiaoyu's hand, while casually scolding, "Don't do that again, lest you get your hands dirty. Even if you have to use your hands, let someone else do it."
With just a few casual words, without directly mentioning Qiangzi and his group, he utterly scorned them.
Perhaps in Li Chenxu's eyes, people like Qiangzi and his ilk weren't even human; he found them disgusting to look at.
Mu Xiaoyu paused for a second upon hearing this, then quickly burst into laughter. Ultimately, experience counts; Li Chenxu's tactless yet sarcastic remarks were truly admirable.
After a while, Qiangzi realized what was happening, and his thin, bony face flushed bright red. He gritted his teeth and glared at Li Chenxu, his eyes filled with a murderous intent.
He stared intently at Li Chenxu with that look, then suddenly laughed after a few seconds: "Don't be too smug. Let me tell you, this is just the beginning!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu frowned instantly, while Li Chenxu showed no reaction and didn't even glance at Qiangzi. He calmly put away the handkerchief, kissed the back of Mu Xiaoyu's hand, and then said, "Be good, go out and wait for me."
Seeing Li Chenxu's expression, it was clear he wanted to do something, and Mu Xiaoyu didn't want to delay him any longer. So, without hesitation, she nodded and left the interrogation room.
Although Li Chenxu often appears stern and unsmiling in public, giving off a somewhat intimidating vibe, he actually maintains excellent interpersonal relationships. Now that Mu Xiaoyu has left, the people at the police station have invited her to sit down and have been telling her about their experiences there over the past few days.
“This matter is probably not so easy to handle. Before you and Mr. Li arrived, we tried every method. We questioned the two prisoners inside, but they wouldn’t say anything. Even their backgrounds were tampered with during our investigation.”
The speaker was a policewoman, and she was very kind to Mu Xiaoyu. She didn't fawn over Mu Xiaoyu because of their status, which made people feel very relaxed.
Mu Xiaoyu felt a little heavy-hearted, but upon hearing this, she still gave the policewoman a slight smile and said, "Actually, I guessed it too. A man like my father would never leave any handles for others to use against him back then, and he certainly wouldn't after all these years. It won't be that easy to get any useful clues out of Qiangzi and the others."
To facilitate solving the case, they needed to know something about Mu Xiaoyu and Mu Pengzheng's relationship. However, seeing Mu Xiaoyu recount such a painful story so casually, the policewoman couldn't help but feel some sympathy for her.
Mu Xiaoyu isn't as famous as those big stars, but she's been very busy lately. Plus, her new book is strong, and SQ's marketing is quite good. Even people who haven't read much of the comics know Mu Xiaoyu.
On the surface, she appears glamorous and successful, but if it weren't for this case, who would know that there is such a heartbreaking past behind her?
Mu Xiaoyu has delicate features and a strong personality, but she looks rather weak. Because of her kind nature, even women would feel sorry for her when they see her silent.
The policewoman's heart stirred slightly. As if to soothe Mu Xiaoyu's emotions, she covered Mu Xiaoyu's hand and said, "Mrs. Li, don't worry, we will do our best to catch Mu Pengzheng!"
Mu Xiaoyu was actually just thinking about Mu Pengzheng; she wasn't really sad. After all, she had no feelings for Mu Pengzheng, so how could she possibly be sad because of him?
Upon hearing the policewoman's words, he paused for a moment, then immediately broke into a bright smile.
She thought that her love for this world was not just because of Li Chenxu, but also because of this beautiful world and so many lovely people.
She hadn't even fully experienced this world yet, how could she bear to leave because of Mu Pengzheng...
No one knew what Li Chenxu was doing in the interrogation room. Mu Xiaoyu herself didn't know how long she had been waiting, and she fell asleep on the sofa outside. When she woke up again, Li Chenxu was already outside talking to people from the police station.
I don’t know if it’s just my imagination, but I feel like the way people in the police station are looking at Li Chenxu is a little different right now.
When they first arrived, they looked at Li Chenxu with respect, yet also with a sense of unapproachability. But now, it seemed to be tinged with fear.
She wondered if she was seeing things, blinked, and was about to take another look when Li Chenxu suddenly looked in her direction.
Mu Xiaoyu quickly lowered her head guiltily. She didn't know why she did this; it was just an unconscious action.
"The rest is up to you. We'll contact you again if we have any leads."
Li Chenxu stood up, shook hands with each of the police officers present, and then walked to Mu Xiaoyu's side, gently helping her up.
"Why are you looking down when you see me? Did you do something wrong and feel guilty?"
Mu Xiaoyu was about to retort when she suddenly smelled a faint scent of blood. It wasn't very noticeable, but Mu Xiaoyu's nose was always very sensitive. What was faint to others seemed to be magnified many times over to her, making it very obvious.
She couldn't help but frown, and then, thinking of the way the police officers had treated Li Chenxu, she immediately understood.
"What did you do to Qiangzi in the interrogation room just now?"
"You want to know?"
Li Chenxu didn't answer, but instead asked Mu Xiaoyu.
This time it was Mu Xiaoyu's turn to hesitate. In fact, she knew that she shouldn't be soft-hearted when facing someone like Qiangzi, and she could also understand what Li Chenxu had done.
However, she cares too much about Li Chenxu right now, so she doesn't want him to do such a thing.
Just as Li Chenxu wanted to protect her, she also wanted Li Chenxu to stay away from such filthy things.
However, given the current situation, getting away is simply impossible...
"No... I was just asking casually. So, did Qiangzi come up with any useful clues?"
