Wen Haotian sat in his office, quietly waiting for the bout of pain to pass. After a while, he let out a long breath. Looking down at his clothes, he realized he hadn't changed them for several days. He decided to go home today.
Anyway, he had already sent people out to look for Su Rou. As long as they were still in Washington... no, as long as they were still on this planet, he would spare no effort to dig her out!
Wen Haotian sat for a while, then slowly got up, picked up his briefcase and was about to go home.
The Wen Family Residence
Yao Yu was sitting on the sofa with a layer of green ointment on her neck. It looked quite strange. Seeing this, Wen Haotian didn't feel sorry for his accidental action. Instead, he walked straight into the bedroom to take a shower. After the shower, he changed into a clean set of clothes.
"Sir, Madam, dinner is ready," Aunt Yue said to them.
Wen Haotian and Yao Yu silently walked over and started eating without saying a word. Neither of them spoke. They just ate quietly, and both of them consciously avoided mentioning what had happened that day. For Yao Yu, Wen Haotian had become a stranger.
After dinner, Wen Haotian and Yao Yu sat silently on the sofa watching TV. Just then, they saw a news report. A male journalist said seriously, "Another case of intentional homicide occurred today. But this time, the criminal is actually a college student and also the daughter of the Wen's Group!"
Hearing this, the two silent people on the sofa immediately turned to look at the TV. Their eyes widened as they stared at the journalist on the screen. What did he just say? The daughter of the Wen's Group? Had their English deteriorated, or was the journalist speaking too fast? How could they have heard... the daughter of the Wen family?
"Wait, the daughter of the Wen family... does he mean Tongtong or Xiaorou?" Don't forget, there are two daughters in the Wen family. Yao Yu was so shocked by the news that she could hardly speak clearly.
Wen Haotian was also silent for a moment. "It's not Su Rou. I haven't made her identity public..." So, does that mean the murderer is Tongtong?!
It can't be! It's impossible!
The news footage switched to Winchester Family Hospital. The operating room light was still on, indicating that the doctors inside were performing a rescue. A female journalist popped up again. "The patient is currently being rescued with all efforts. It is said that her whole face is disfigured and she has lost a lot of blood. The daughter of the Wen family hit her twice with a beer bottle, once on the back of the head and once on the temple. The doctor said the situation is very critical... Ah, here they come!" The journalist saw a doctor walking out of the operating room and immediately walked over and asked, "Doctor, how is the patient now?"
The doctor took off his blood - stained gloves and shook his head at the camera. "The rescue was unsuccessful. She has passed away. The broken glass of the beer bottle that pierced into her temple was too deep. We failed to save her..."
As soon as these words were spoken, a couple beside them immediately collapsed in tears, crying heart - rendingly!
"Next, the criminal has been arrested. The police will investigate the detailed cause."
When Wen Haotian saw this, he couldn't bear to watch any longer. He snatched the remote control and turned off the TV. "What's going on..." How could Wen Tong go and kill someone!
Yao Yu was obviously still in shock. She put a hand on her chest, looking rather uncomfortable.
Just then, Wen Haotian's phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number. He hesitated for a moment and then answered it. "Mr. Wen, we are from the police station. Regarding your daughter's homicide case, we hope you can come here."
"......Okay."
Wen Haotian hung up the phone. "Let's go to the police station and take a look."
After all, they were still concerned about their daughter. Yao Yu immediately stood up, not caring how strange she looked.
When they arrived at the police station, Wen Tong's hands were in handcuffs. She was sitting on a chair with her head down, her body still trembling.
Yao Yu felt extremely heart - broken. "Tongtong!"
Hearing Yao Yu's voice, Wen Tong looked up. Her whole face was streaked with tears. "Mommy..." Saying that, Wen Tong stood up and threw herself into Yao Yu's arms. "Mommy, I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't."
Wen Tong was still just a child. She was only nineteen. When she went to settle the score with Sandy, it was partly because she had drunk too much and got brave with the help of alcohol. In fact... if it were a normal day, how would she have dared to do such a thing?
Wen Haotian glanced at Wen Tong, then turned to the policeman and said, "Sergeant, is there some misunderstanding?"
Wen Haotian was a well - known figure in Washington anyway, and the people in the police station were aware of this. So they were still quite polite to Wen Tong. However, Wen Tong had indeed killed someone. No matter how unintentional it was, she had committed the act!
"Mr. Wen, it's like this. Miss Wen, under the influence of alcohol, accidentally killed her classmate with a beer bottle. Regarding this matter, we can only detain her for criminal investigation. Further details will need to be interrogated later."
Wen Tong clung to Yao Yu's arms. Everyone thinks of their parents first when they are in trouble. "Mommy, I don't want to stay in the police station!" It was dark and damp here. She didn't want to be here!
"Sergeant, you see..." Yao Yu couldn't bear it either.
The sergeant shook his head. "Sorry, Mrs. Wen. Please don't make things difficult for us." They were just small policemen and couldn't afford any trouble.
Wen Haotian pondered for a moment. "Okay."
"Daddy!"
"You still have the nerve to call me after doing something wrong!" Wen Haotian scolded coldly. He had just lost Su Rou a few days ago, and now this happened to Wen Tong. It was really... none of them could let him worry less.
"I don't... Mommy!" Wen Tong cried until her eyes were swollen. She really didn't do it on purpose. She was just... extremely angry at that time!
"Tongtong," Yao Yu said lovingly, looking at her. "We will come to pick you up. Just be good for now, okay?"
"Really?" Wen Tong asked timidly.
"Yeah!" Anyway, they couldn't let their daughter end up like this!
"Then I'll wait for you... You must come and pick me up," Wen Tong said reluctantly, holding Yao Yu's hand.
...
Su Rou and Su Yuze were cuddled up on the sofa watching TV as usual. When they saw the news about the homicide, Su Rou clicked her tongue twice. "Wen Tong actually killed someone for you!" Su Yuze really had a lot of influence!
"A woman's jealousy..." is really scary!
"I'm a woman too," Su Rou rolled her eyes at him.
"Those are wild women with no one to discipline them."
"What about me?"
"You're my woman."
Well, at least he knew how to talk.
