CHAPTER 607: CHAPTER 607: FAMILY HERITAGE AND LEARNING ORIGINS

"Don’t stop her, let that bitch come over here, I want to see what she can do to me," Tang Zhongwei said defiantly, but her struggle wasn’t that intense. She was more posturing, with rebellious eyes full of provocation, like a wild horse unwilling to admit defeat.

Indeed, the woman was further infuriated by Tang Zhongwei’s glance, like a bull seeing red.

"Let me go, I want to go over and beat her to death, I want to go over and beat her to death!" the woman shouted loudly.

"Quiet down, this is no place for your nonsense, take them all away," the leading policeman said, with two scratch marks on his face from the woman, stinging sharply.

His mood was far from good at that moment. If his wife at home saw these two scratches, who knows how she might scold him. To get himself involved because of two crazy women, he could hardly be happy about that.

Tang Zhongwei and the woman were taken away. Yu Xia didn’t follow but stayed behind to clean up the mess left by the pair before heading to the police station.

Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao, enjoying their sweet couple time at home, were a bit puzzled when they received a call from the police. "Alright, we’re heading over now," Xu Ke said and hung up the phone.

"What happened? Who called?" Lin Mengyao asked curiously, seeing the smile fade from Xu Ke’s face.

"The police station. Tang Zhongwei got into a fight and was arrested," Xu Ke said.

"What? What about Xiaxia? Xiaxia’s health isn’t good, she wasn’t beaten, was she?" Lin Mengyao asked with some concern. She still remembered how frail Xiaxia looked when she first arrived. Although she now seemed no different from an ordinary person on the outside, she was still weak, strong in appearance but fragile inside.

"I didn’t hear the police say Xiaxia was among those detained. She likely wasn’t involved; she’s so well-behaved she would never get into a fight. Just don’t worry about it. Do you want to come with me, or wait at home?" Xu Ke got up from the sofa, seemingly ready to change clothes and go out.

"I’ll go with you," Lin Mengyao stood up without hesitation and said.

At this moment, Yu Xia didn’t know that Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao at home had already received the news.

The woman’s family came quickly, led by a luxurious-looking lady, from head to toe adorned with jewelry, every inch screaming ’I’m expensive.’

The first thing the lady did upon arriving at the police station was to slam her bag onto the desk. "Where’s my daughter? What have you done to my daughter? I’m telling you, if anything happens to my daughter, I won’t let you off!"

"Who are you here for?" The policeman with scratches on his face asked. Seeing the lady’s bad attitude, his expression wasn’t good either.

Out of concern for her daughter, the lady didn’t argue with the policeman but reported her own name.

Upon hearing the name, the policeman lifted his eyelid and gave her a glance, saying, "Follow me."

The lady followed behind the policeman. After a few steps, she heard her daughter’s voice faintly coming from ahead. She shoved the policeman aside and ran towards the sound. Pushing the door open, she saw her daughter locked up, and her legs instantly weakened. If not for something to support her, she might’ve just collapsed to the floor.

"Oh my goodness, why are you locked up? Did they abuse you? How did you end up like this?" The lady rushed to the woman, reaching through the iron bars to touch the bruises on her face.

"Mom, they bullied me. That woman hit me, and they did nothing but lock me up, saying they want to detain me. I don’t want to be detained; I don’t want to be here. There’s nothing here, it’s horrible. I want to go home. Mom, please take me home," the woman tearfully said.

"Tsk, you look over thirty, yet when something happens, all you can do is call for your mom and tattletale, aren’t you ashamed? It’s embarrassing," Tang Zhongwei said coolly from the next cell.

"She’s the one who hit me, Mom, hurry and teach her a lesson!" Upon hearing Tang Zhongwei’s voice, the woman started crying again, her sharp voice with a sob as if she had suffered a great injustice.

"Don’t worry, Mom will get justice for you." The lady said as she moved to Tang Zhongwei’s side, beginning to curse at her the moment she saw her, "I was wondering who dared to lay hands on my daughter, turns out it’s someone so lowly, dressing provocatively at a young age. Either a mistress or a whore, who knows if you have any diseases. You shouldn’t be locked up here, you should be taken out and cleaned inside out, check thoroughly to see if you have any filthy disease. Breathing the same air as you under the same sky makes me fear getting infected," the lady covered her nose, full of disgust.

"How can you say that? Such a foul mouth. Now I see why your daughter speaks so disrespectfully and begs for a beating, it’s in the blood. I’m truly flattered," Tang Zhongwei glanced at Yu Xia and seeing no intention to intervene, immediately retorted.

"You’re clearly a poorly brought-up person, probably a child without parents. If even one of your parents were alive, you’d have better manners," the lady sneered, not backing down.

"Quiet down! This is a police station, not a street market. No cursing allowed," said the returning policeman, holding two disposable cups, pouring water for Yu Xia and the lady.

"When can I take my daughter home? She’s never suffered such hardship or punishment. I want to take her away. As for that woman next door to my daughter, just one look and you know she’s no good. Such people shouldn’t walk the streets; they should be in jail," the lady said viciously.

"Ma’am, watch your words. The one who started this was your daughter. If anyone’s going to be locked up, it’s the culprit, right, officer?" Yu Xia smiled sweetly as she spoke.

"I hope the officer will thoroughly investigate this and give the culprit a severe punishment to not dishearten citizens or encourage such vile behavior," Yu Xia said seriously. Her innocent demeanor reminded the policeman of his little daughter at home, softening his expression.

"You little girl, you look young, but your mouth has no filter, does it? Who’s the culprit, huh? Make yourself clear. My daughter has been the most courteous and well-mannered since she was little, speaking softly, she couldn’t possibly do such a thing," the lady boasted, her ability to lie with open eyes was top-notch, acting as though the one causing a scene at the station wasn’t her daughter, righteous as can be, making one doubt themselves.
