Chapter 233
I like It Here, Gonna Stay A Few More Days (2)
When he woke up again, he was already in the detention center.
He had been detained.
Liang Yuanqing was so angry that he was about to hammer the wall; his eyes were flushed red and he looked fierce.
It was dark and small, dregs mixing with the honorable. To be honest, Liang Yuanqing hadn’t lived in such a dark and tight place for many years.
His body couldn’t stand it, and he thought of leaving the minute he woke up.
But the police said that he had to wait a few days. Unless someone came to bail him out, he would have to stay here.
Bail… That’s right, bail!
The police said, “We have contacted your wife, but she is not a local, right?”
Liang Yuanqing woke up instantly as if someone hit his head and screamed next to it, his mind clearing up right away.
“My, my wife? Comrade police, have you contacted her?”
“Yes, she seems to be very busy? She said she won’t be here for two days.”
Sweat dripped from Liang Yuanqing’s forehead as he panicked.
Although he wanted to go out, he definitely couldn’t let his in-laws’ family come to bail him out! People from his in-laws’ family must not come to this place!
Liang Yuanqing’s body went limp, and he leaned against the wall while thinking.
“Comrade police, can I have a phone call with my wife? She… She doesn’t have a very good relationship with me, and may not be willing to come here to bail me. Let me talk to her.”
This seemed to be true. When they made the call, the other person’s voice instantly went cold, as if their relationship was fractured.
“It’s okay, but you can’t talk in private. You have to use the speaker so we can supervise.”
He would be monitored at all times.
Liang Yuanqing sighed fiercely, then forced a smile and nodded.
Several beeps sounded and the call connected.
“Hello?” A slightly cold woman’s voice sounded.
“Wifey. It’s me.” Liang Yuanqing said immediately, “Where are you now? Are you coming to bail me?”
“In country C.”
Ah, she really was abroad. That’s good.
Liang Yuanqing continued, “Since it’s so far, it’s inconvenient for you to come back. You don’t have to come. Take a good rest and don’t worry about me.”
“Liang Yuanqing, no matter what you did, you’re still my husband. Although I am not in the country, I will let my father find someone to bail you out.”
“No need, really no need.” Liang Yuanqing was so nervous that his tongue was tangled, “How can one be a human being without at least this level of awareness? Isn’t that right, comrade police? What need is there to bail me out? No need. It’s really nice here, and I like being here. Let them lock me up for a while so I can get some quiet time.”
“…is there something wrong with your brain?”
Liang Yuanqing ignored the rest, pretending to be angry, “Do you really not understand? It’s because you’re always like this that I want to be locked up here. I’m here for some quiet, do you understand? I don’t want to see you in the near future, don’t come to bail me! You’re so annoying!”
The other party didn’t say anything, and simply hung up the phone.
Liang Yuanqing slowly let out a sigh of relief and secretly thought that based on his wife’s temper, she wouldn’t care whether he lived or died. Only then did he hand the phone back to the policeman while smiling.
The policeman was also stunned.
Was there something wrong with his head…? He swallowed this sentence back.
Liang Yuanqing didn’t care what others thought of him.
He would rather be locked up for a while than have his in-laws’ family discover the child.
Things had already come to this point, so he could only confess.
Once the spotlight passed, he would think of a solution.
Three months later, Liang Yuanqing’s assistant came to turn himself in, saying that he did it all by himself and that it had nothing to do with his boss. He confessed all his crimes.
Only then was Liang Yuanqing released.
In these short three months, he turned one size thinner, his chin was covered with stubble, and he became very haggard. There was also a scar on his face and he looked gloomier, a little bit terrifying.
The high-spirited man was gone, replaced by a withered and stumbling Liang Yuanqing.
After he came out, he didn’t bother troubling Jiang Xing, and didn’t care about anything else.
He just wanted to go away as far as he could from this cursed place now, and he would never return to this broken place again!
–
In comparison, Jiang Xiaoman had a great time.
After sleeping it off for a night, it was as if the incident had never happened.
The police uncle came to give her a psychological check-up, and left after a chat when he found that she did not feel unwell.
Grandma also said that since she was okay, they shouldn’t publicize the incident. She still had to go to school, and if things spread, it would not have a good impact on Xiaoman’s studies.
The police agreed to Jiang Xiumei’s request and didn’t publicize it. No one knew what had happened.
Regarding her two days absence from school, Jiang Xiaoman explained that she was too naughty and went out to explore in the middle of the night, then got lost and couldn’t find the way home. Because of this, she was beaten by her grandmother and she warned the children not to run around without reason.
Especially at night, it could be really dangerous.
The children were amazed and indicated that they understood.
However, Zhang Xinhua had a different view on this.
Because he also knew Jiang Xiaoman very well.
Jiang Xiaoman was very brave and smart. It was impossible that she would go out at night alone and not be able to find her way back home, and get beaten as a result.
Then there was only one explanation – Jiang Xiaoman went out at night, but something else prevented her from coming back!
Zhang Xinhua secretly looked for Jiang Xiaoman and said mysteriously, “Xiaoman, I know why you didn’t come to class, and I also know why you got lost and couldn’t find your way home.”
Jiang Xiaoman and Yu Qingshi looked at each other, then turned their heads and asked Zhang Xinhua, “Why?”
“Did you…” Zhang Xinhua deliberately built anticipation and lowered his voice, “Did you encounter the School’s Ten Mysteries?”
“……??” What was that?
