Chapter 104: Arrested
The security guards of the building finally appeared. Upon seeing Xia Yang, they immediately moved to apprehend him. Xia Yang flashed and dodged, avoiding them. The security guards, angered, tried to grab Xia Yang again.
This time, Xia Yang was caught. However, as the security guard grabbed him, he gripped one of them and said, “I have legs, I can walk out myself. You old man, save your energy!”
After saying that, he threw one of the security guards to the ground and then left with a flourish!
As soon as he arrived downstairs from the building, he was surrounded by over a dozen police officers. Xia Yang hadn’t even figured out what was happening before the police handcuffed him, saying, “Xia Yang, we are arresting you for intentional injury! You can speak, but anything you say will be used as evidence in court!!”
Xia Yang raised an eyebrow. Intentional injury? When had he intentionally injured someone?
Then, a large group of reporters swarmed forward.
“As an illegitimate child of the Ji Family, do you have anything to say?”
“Is this act of violence because you are not allowed to acknowledge your ancestors by the Ji Family?”
“Did you instigate the explosion at the hospital?”
“Xia Yang, say something!”
Xia Yang never imagined that one day he would be exposed to the media. The identity he had wanted to keep hidden until his death was now being revealed in such a manner.
Xia Yang’s face was filled with anger. Who was it? Who had pulled the strings? Who was it?
Xia Yang shielded his face with his hand, facing countless flashes. The only face that flashed in his mind was Li Mei’s, but it wasn’t her. Who was it?
Escorted by reporters into a police car, Xia Yang felt a bit dazed.
Outside the car, the police chief spoke to the media, “We are very grateful for the media’s attention to this case. However, before the investigation is complete, the police will not make any public statements. We will wait for the court’s verdict before drawing any conclusions!”
Before the reporters could ask further questions, the police car sped away with its siren wailing.
Xia Yang looked out the window, then at the police officer sitting beside him, feeling extremely depressed. Who could rescue him at this moment?
Grandfather Ji was in the hospital. Even if he wasn’t, he wouldn’t ask the old man to help him!
On the other side, Qing Tian was having lunch with Ji Xiangyu at the school canteen when the television suddenly broadcasted the scene of Xia Yang’s arrest.
Seeing Xia Yang on the screen, Qing Tian’s heart skipped a beat. She immediately stood up. The surrounding students, who had been bustling about, fell silent, with only the host speaking.
“At 11 AM this morning, the police received a report from a concerned individual. Last night at 9 PM, a group brawl occurred outside Royal Hospital, during which a man was killed by a teenager. The police immediately arrested the underage murderer, Xia Yang, downstairs from the Ji’s Foundation. This Xia Yang, who is under eighteen, is the illegitimate child of Ji’s heir, Ji Junhua. So, is this incident a result of the teenager’s dissatisfaction with society or an extreme act against the Ji Family? New Entertainment will continue to follow this story for our viewers!”
Qing Tian felt her legs go weak. After parting ways with Xia Yang yesterday, she had no idea this had happened.
Ji Xiangyu put his arm around Qing Tian and said comfortingly, “Don’t worry, it will be alright!”
Qing Tian and Ji Xiangyu had officially established their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend last night, and their intimacy had grown overnight.
However, Qing Tian felt that this relationship was somewhat ephemeral.
She nodded and leaned her head on Ji Xiangyu’s shoulder. Worrying now wouldn’t solve anything. There would surely be a way to rescue Xia Yang.
Ji Xiangyu’s heart ached as he saw Qing Tian’s worried expression for Xia Yang.
When would he be able to elicit such a worried expression from Qing Tian?
Huzi and Song Shishi ran over in a hurry. Upon seeing Qing Tian, they said breathlessly, “Sister Qing, come with us to see Xia Yang! Something has happened to Xia Yang!”
Huzi chimed in, “That’s right, Sister Qing! Big Brother has been arrested! I don’t know which bastard framed him, but if I find out, I’ll deal with him!”
Song Shishi patted Huzi’s chest, “Less nonsense, let’s go!”
Ji Xiangyu stopped them, “Don’t panic. Let’s call a lawyer first. Acting rashly is not a good idea!”
Song Shishi thought about it, but where could they find a lawyer? They didn’t know anyone!
Situ Jingyi and Ji Weiwei walked over smugly. Ji Weiwei said with a relaxed expression, “Oh my, what’s going on here? Why is everyone gathered here?”
Song Shishi felt disgusted seeing Ji Weiwei’s face, and with Situ Jingyi’s habitually arrogant expression beside her, they were simply asking for a beating!
Situ Jingyi, ignoring that Ji Xiangyu was holding Qing Tian, immediately leaned in and linked her arm with Ji Xiangyu’s, acting spoiled. “Yu, why are you here? I couldn’t find you at lunch!”
In the next moment, Qing Tian was pushed aside by Situ Jingyi. Qing Tian frowned and glanced at Situ Jingyi but said nothing.
On the other hand, Ji Weiwei and Situ Jingyi felt a sense of satisfaction.
Song Shishi couldn’t stand it any longer and directly pulled Qing Tian, saying, “You two, get lost! We don’t have time to show off with you! Goodbye.”
This goodbye was directed at Ji Xiangyu. What kind of man couldn’t even protect the woman he liked?
Ji Xiangyu hadn’t refused Situ Jingyi’s affectionate gesture because she was his good friend, but he regretted it now, as his actions had made Qing Tian uncomfortable.
He immediately shook off Situ Jingyi and caught up with Qing Tian, pulling her and saying, “Let’s go together, I’ll drive!”
Qing Tian immediately replied unhappily, “No trouble, we’ll take Huzi’s car!”
Unbeknownst to her, these words struck Ji Xiangyu’s heart like a dagger.
After Qing Tian spoke, she also felt regret, but words spoken were like spilled water, impossible to take back.
She looked at Ji Xiangyu apologetically. Ji Xiangyu stood in place, forcing a relaxed smile, “It’s no trouble at all. I also want to see how Xia Yang is doing, and I can call our lawyer to bail him out!”
Qing Tian nodded slightly, and then the four of them headed to the police station.
Behind them, Situ Jingyi and Ji Weiwei were smiling smugly.
Ji Weiwei said triumphantly, “Sister Jingyi, can we really get rid of this little slut Qing Tian from First High School this time?”
Situ Jingyi crossed her arms and smiled sinisterly, “Just wait and see the show! Soon, everyone will disappear!”
Hearing Situ Jingyi say this, Ji Weiwei’s mouth split into the widest possible smile!
Qing Tian, Song Shishi, I want you to completely disappear!!!
