"Yes, yes," Bai Siqi replied, not daring to say she wasn't.
She turned her head and called out into the inner room, "Song Yan, you, you come out quickly, someone is looking for you—"
This man got into trouble, and he still has the nerve to lie on the kang (heated brick bed) and take a nap.
Song Yan originally didn't want to pay attention to Bai Siqi, but he was startled when he heard that someone was looking for him.
He immediately put on his clothes and came out from the inner room.
When he saw the two policemen standing at the door, he was shocked—why would the police come to his door at this time?
Their expressions don't suggest they're here to check household registrations.
Could it be that Fu Mingxue called the police again?
The thought flashed through his mind; he couldn't believe Fu Mingxue was that stupid.
After all, he had gone there specifically to deliver the message.
She couldn't possibly repay kindness with enmity, could she?
My heart was in turmoil.
His face remained calm, though a slight look of confusion still lingered.
He didn't speak first.
One of the police officers was an old acquaintance of his, after all, he was the one who handled Song Yan's case when he was last arrested.
"Song Yan, there's something we need your cooperation to investigate. Please come with us to the police station first."
Of course, Song Yan couldn't just leave with them like that.
If he were taken away by the police like this...
Even if he's fine, will he still be able to live in this tenement in the future?
There is a severe shortage of housing in Beijing right now.
It was no easy feat for him to rent such a large apartment in a crowded courtyard.
Besides, there were seven or eight households living in that courtyard!
If they go with the police, who knows what they'll chew on!
"Officers, could you please ask me anything at my home? It's really inconvenient for me to go to the police station with you—the landlord might think I've committed a crime and won't rent the house to me anymore."
The two policemen also felt the prying eyes of the other residents in the courtyard.
But instead of following Song Yan's advice, they said directly, "This matter must be taken to the police station. Don't worry, if you have no problems, then when you get home, everyone's suspicions will be disproven. If the landlord doesn't allow you to stay here, then we will try to mediate."
Song Yan's expression froze for a moment.
He could only nod.
After all, the police had said that, and if he didn't cooperate and go with them, he would probably be forcibly taken away.
"Alright, I'll go with you."
He then turned to Bai Siqi, whose face was pale, and said, "Wife, take good care of the child at home. Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
His words were actually a warning to her not to mistreat the three children.
Bai Siqi met his gaze and nodded reluctantly, "I...I understand!"
Song Yan followed the two policemen.
Bai Siqi quickly closed the door, blocking the prying eyes of the other neighbors in the mansion.
When Song Yan arrived at the police station, the police began questioning him: "Song Yan, we received a report from Comrade Fu Mingxue, who said that you went to her house to threaten her and put her in danger. How do you explain this?"
When Song Yan heard this question, he couldn't control his expression at all.
Although he had indeed had this idea in his mind before.
But he really didn't expect that Fu Mingxue would actually call the police.
Now, should he admit it or not?
"Officer, there's been a misunderstanding. I didn't threaten her—"
"Then what about going to her house to tell her there was danger? What danger was she in? Who wanted to harm her? And how did you know that?"
The police bombarded Song Yan with a series of questions.
