"The word 'regret' doesn't exist in my dictionary, Lin Yue. Justice resides in the hearts of the people."
The blonde girl sneered, "Lin Yue, right? Gu Chaoyan, remember my name."
Inside the police station.
"We have a general understanding of the situation. We can call the parents to come and sign something, and then they can go home," the police officer in charge of recording the case said seriously.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Chaoyan looked at Lin Yue with a smug expression, as if mocking her for overestimating herself.
Lin Yue hesitated to give Li Shuhua's phone number to the police. She could already imagine her mother's reaction after receiving the call, and what consequences she would face...
Finally, under pressure from the police, she gritted her teeth and gave out Song Yunzheng's phone number...
Song Yunzheng was working overtime at the hospital. He had just finished an operation and returned to his office exhausted. He had just sat down when the phone rang.
"Hello, is this Mr. Song Yunzheng?"
"It's me."
"This is the Haidian Branch of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. Lin Yue got into a fight at school and bit a classmate. We need you to come over here, sign some papers, and then take the child back."
Song Yunzheng frowned as he glanced at the number on his phone screen, confirming it was indeed the police station. This girl had caused trouble at school but hadn't called her parents; instead, she called him? Was she afraid of being criticized and using him as a scapegoat?
"Hello, Mr. Song, are you listening?"
"I'm coming right away."
After hanging up the phone, Song Yunzheng took off his work clothes and drove to the police station.
As soon as they reached the door, they saw Gu Song walking towards them, and both of them were taken aback.
"What are you doing here?" Song Yunzheng asked first.
Gu Song sighed and said helplessly, "I came to pick up my sister. She got into a fight at school."
Upon hearing this, Song Yunzheng understood almost everything, so he didn't say anything more and went straight inside.
"Hey, what are you doing here?" Gu Song quickly followed him inside.
Song Yunzheng walked into the interrogation room with a cold and stern expression. He saw Lin Yue sitting there, resting her chin on her hand, dozing off.
They're so carefree! They've been taken to the police station and they can still sleep soundly without a care in the world?
He walked over and banged on the table hard, "Knock knock knock..."
Lin Yue woke up instantly, her head lurching forward. She opened her eyes groggily, and after seeing who it was, she stood up abruptly and said in a low voice, "Dr. Song, I'm so sorry to trouble you to come and get me so late."
The police officer approached Song Yunzheng and said, "The other party is requesting a medical examination to assess the injuries, which may require you to pay all medical expenses and compensation for emotional distress. If there are no problems, please sign here and we can take the person away."
Upon hearing that she had to compensate the perpetrator, Lin Yue immediately protested, "Why should I compensate her? I was also injured, and I didn't cause her any trouble. Why is she, the perpetrator, turning around and blaming me?" With that, she turned to leave, wanting to confront Gu Chaoyan.
Song Yunzheng grabbed her by the back of the collar and pulled her back. "Haven't you had enough? Want to do it again in front of the police? If you keep making a scene, I'm not going to take care of you anymore. Do you want your mother to come and bail you out herself?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yue didn't dare to breathe loudly and could only lower her head and stand obediently to the side.
Song Yunzheng took the form from the policeman, didn't even look at it, and signed his name directly.
After signing, he grabbed Lin Yue by the collar and started walking out, where they ran into Gu Chaoyan and Gu Song, a brother and sister who had also finished signing.
When Gu Chaoyan saw Song Yunzheng leading Lin Yue over, she asked in confusion, "Brother Yunzheng, who are you to her? Why are you here to sign for her?"
Seeing Lin Yue's downcast expression, Gu Song realized that the injuries on his sister's face and hands were caused by her. He couldn't believe that beneath her innocent and cute appearance lay a strong personality.
"You don't need to worry about that. I'll find out whether she bullied you or you bullied her first."
Song Yunzheng led Lin Yue out, and as they passed by the brother and sister, he left them with these words.
Gu Chaoyan stared in disbelief at their departing figures, stomping her feet in anger. "Brother, what's their relationship? Why is Brother Yunzheng protecting her?"
"Aren't you leaving yet? Aren't you embarrassed enough?" Gu Song ignored her and turned to walk towards the car.
"Hey, wait for me..."
After getting in the car, Lin Yue sat quietly in the passenger seat. She didn't dare to make a sound until Song Yunzheng spoke.
The atmosphere inside the car was incredibly tense. Just as she was trying to figure out what he was thinking, Song Yunzheng suddenly spoke up: "Shall I take you back to school?"
"My counselor told me to go home and calm down for three days before going back," Lin Yue said softly.
Sure enough, when you do something wrong, you can't stand up straight in front of anyone, but she did nothing wrong by acting bravely for a just cause!
"Um... Dr. Song, could you let me stay for three days?" It was quite a feat for Song Yunzheng to hear these words, which were squeezed out from his chest!
Song Yunzheng turned his head and glanced at her. Her hair was messy, her head was drooping, and she looked like a little girl who had suffered a lot of grievances. His heart softened.
"Then come back with me."
A short while later, the car stopped in the garage of Courtyard No. 1.
Lin Yue kept her head down the whole way, looking timid and guilty, following behind Song Yunzheng with small, quick steps.
"Come in."
"oh……"
"Close the door properly."
"oh……"
"Wash your hands first, and don't touch anything before you've washed them."
"Oh..." Lin Yue lowered her head and walked into the bathroom.
Perhaps due to his occupation, he has severe mysophobia. After leaving home, he must wash and disinfect his entire body before he can sit down. Therefore, he almost never brings anyone to his home.
After she finished washing her hands, Song Yunzheng handed her a set of pajamas. "I don't have any women's pajamas here, wear mine for now. Go wash up quickly, change out of your dirty clothes, and put them in the washing machine."
Lin Yue took the clothes and looked at them, then frowned. "These clothes are too big. I can't wear the pants; they'll fall down."
Song Yunzheng looked her up and down. She was only a little over 160 cm tall, and it was really difficult for her to wear his 185 cm clothes.
"Then wear the top as a skirt. I'll buy you a new one tomorrow."
"Okay..." Lin Yue carried the clothes into the bathroom, and came out a little while later, standing there looking hesitant.
"What's wrong?" Song Yunzheng asked in a deep voice.
"I...I didn't have any clean underwear..." Lin Yue lowered her head, her face flushed, and her voice grew softer and softer.
Song Yunzheng was taken aback at first, but after realizing what was happening, he went into the bedroom, took out a new pair of men's underwear and handed it to Lin Yue, "Make do with these for now, they're new and clean."
"Oh... thank you." Lin Yue took the underwear, turned around, and quickly closed the door!
Song Yunzheng couldn't help but laugh at her reaction. "How pathetic. She dares to fight and brawl with people at school, but now she's acting like a coward."
