Chapter 97 Attempted Rape

Fu Shangluo returned empty-handed. He said a lot, but Pei Jiuyan did not cooperate. He left with obvious anger.

"You'll be happy when you kill her."

Pei Jiuyan stared at him and said, "Then I will die with her. I will be with her in life and death anyway."

"madman!"

Fu Shangluo left angrily after saying this. After he left, Pei Jiuyan's expression was not as relaxed as he seemed. He was thinking about what Fu Shangluo had said.

If his perception were correct, he wouldn't hesitate like this, because he has ways to protect himself and methods that prevent those people from harming him. But now he can't remember anything. His memories are only of his time with Yun Zhaozhao, and they are all good. Many of them are even figments of his imagination.

He wasn't sure if he would really cause trouble for Yun Zhaozhao until he learned from his lawyer that the shareholders had put pressure on him today, and even his mother had joined in the pressure, and in the end, it was Yun Zhaozhao who calmed everything down.

Pei Jiuyan's expression immediately changed. He only wanted Yun Zhaozhao to be happy and didn't want her to bear these burdens. Who were those people? How dare they put pressure on her?

When can I get out?

Pei Jiuyan asked quickly. Many people had asked him many questions since he came in, but he had always kept quiet. He just wanted to see Yun Zhaozhao as soon as possible.

“I have already submitted the application, and since they don’t have any concrete evidence, I should be able to leave soon.”

Pei Jiuyan's legal team is not to be underestimated. Yesterday's situation was too rushed and caught them off guard. After a night, they have prepared the relevant procedures and documents, so there should be no problem.

However, their judgment was wrong. The police raised new suspicions, accusing Pei Jiuyan of being involved in a case of intentional assault. The lawyer's expression changed drastically; this had not been mentioned at all yesterday.

"What assault case is my client involved in?"

The lawyer immediately asked.

The police responded to each point, and the lawyer frowned after reading them. Compared to yesterday's accusations, today's were clearly more convincing, including details such as when the individuals were arrested and when the incident occurred.

Soon, Assistant Qin received the news. His expression changed. Yun Zhaozhao hadn't left yet, and seeing his appearance, she knew something was wrong.

"What? Pei Jiuyan can't get out?"

"Yes, the police have filed new charges."

Yun Zhaozhao was not surprised to hear this. She knew things wouldn't go so smoothly. Those people had gone to great lengths to get Pei Jiuyan in, how could they let him out so easily?

"What accusation?"

"It's hurtful."

"Really or fake?"

Yun Zhaozhao asked another question.

Assistant Qin hesitated for a moment before nodding: "Really."

Moreover, it was Pei Jiuyan who personally did it.

Yun Zhaozhao's face darkened, and she said coldly, "Then he deserves it."

As expected, Pei Jiuyan has dirty hands; he dares to hurt people, so what is there that he wouldn't dare to do?

Assistant Qin couldn't help but say, "There's a reason for this..."

Yun Zhaozhao was too lazy to listen; she thought Pei Jiuyan deserved it, until she saw the 'victim'.

Even though several years have passed, Yun Zhaozhao still recognized them at a glance. Back then, they left such a deep impression on her that just seeing their photos now still brings back memories of her helplessness that day.

She abruptly pressed down on the photos of those people, and after a moment, she looked at Assistant Qin.

"It's them?"

Assistant Qin nodded.

Yun Zhaozhao had mixed feelings. She hadn't expected Pei Jiuyan to investigate what happened back then, and she certainly hadn't expected him to find several people.

"President Pei personally took charge and did not involve anyone else."

He only participated in the cleanup work. When he went in, he was terrified, thinking that those people were dead. But being alive is worse than being dead.

He didn't go into details about what happened, but Yun Zhaozhao could guess some of it.

She hadn't expected that this matter was related to her, and her hands slowly tightened.

Knowing that he couldn't leave the police station for the time being, Pei Jiuyan knew that things were indeed not simple. Just like what that Fu Shangluo said, there were definitely many people who wanted to deal with him.

He had no recollection of hurting anyone, and even if he had, he wouldn't be foolish enough to admit it. He didn't care at all whether he could get out or not; he was worried that he would really implicate Yun Zhaozhao.

When Pei Jiuyan saw Yun Zhaozhao, he thought he was dreaming.

"Zhaozhao, what brings you here?"

Pei Jiuyan was initially delighted, but her expression immediately changed: "Has something happened? Has someone been looking for you?"

His eyes were full of worry for Yun Zhaozhao, sincere and without the slightest concealment.

Faced with Pei Jiuyan like this, Yun Zhaozhao was speechless for a long time. Finally, she said, "I came to talk to you about the company. I don't want to care about your lousy company at all. Come out now."

"Then let's ignore it."

Without thinking, Pei Jiuyan said, "I don't know why I was so brain-dead as to start a company."

That company has too many things to do, and it would take too much time to manage it, leaving him no time to spend with Yun Zhaozhao.

Hearing his words, Yun Zhaozhao was speechless.

The current Pei Jiuyan is completely different from the one before; the two of them give off the feeling of completely different people.

Pei Jiuyan would take it for granted that he would give her everything, regardless of whether she liked it or not. He would always force her to accept what he thought was good. If she was not grateful, he would say that she was cold-blooded and did not appreciate his hard work, and that everything he did was for her.

But now, Pei Jiuyan's perception and his world revolve around her. No one can surpass her. He will no longer spend huge sums of money to buy flashy but impractical things. He would rather make things for her himself than spend money on her. He would also give up the company he has built up over the years because he cannot be with her.

If this Pei Jiuyan is his true personality, how wonderful would that be?

Yun Zhaozhao softened for once and talked to Pei Jiuyan for a while longer; he was as gentle and welcoming as a spring breeze.

Seeing his dazed look, Yun Zhaozhao was speechless.

After looking at Pei Jiuyan, Yun Zhaozhao walked to the police officer on duty.

"I want to report a crime."

Back then, she was worried that the matter would cause trouble for her family, so she did not choose to call the police.

"Yes, I'm going to sue these men for attempted rape."

"Yes, there are witnesses."

As she spoke, Yun Zhaozhao dialed Ning Xu's number.

"Ning Xu, I'm at the police station. I need to ask you for a favor. Okay, I'll wait for you here."

After hanging up the phone, Yun Zhaozhao waited for Ning Xu's arrival at the police station. With witnesses, the parties involved, and the medical records from that year, the police station quickly opened a case.

Meanwhile, news of Yun Zhaozhao's near-violation six years ago also reached the ears of many people.

Fu Shangluo stood up in shock, his face filled with disbelief. After a long while, he suddenly gave a bitter smile: "For him, you actually went to this extent. Is this what you call letting go? Yun Zhaozhao, you liar!"
