Chapter 249: Tea at the Police Station

Wu Mei did not expect Wu Pang to know anything about law. Her lips curled up into a sneer as she watched Wu Pang, Yang Shan, and the others cause trouble.

The Police Chief looked at Wu Mei awkwardly. How would he dare to arrest the Special Agent from the Ministry of Defense and bring her back to the police station?

However, there were too many onlookers in the Wu Corporation. They were all holding up their phones and secretly recording the situation at the scene. If it was uploaded to the Internet, it would definitely cause controversy. Society would naturally criticize them for being unfair despite being police officers.

Wu Yi could tell that something was amiss between the Police Chief and Wu Mei. She immediately said on purpose, “Right now, all the evidence and witnesses are here. We all saw that Wu Mei was the one who beat someone up. If you want to shield her, as the victim’s family, we definitely won’t give up.”

“We will lodge a complaint to the higher-ups for justice! Let’s see what collusion your police station has with Wu Mei…”

The Police Chief had no choice but to send Wu Mei an apologetic look. He waved his hand and called for the police officers to bring Wu Mei back to the police station for interrogation.

Seeing that the situation was out of control, Mother Wu was afraid that Wu Mei would really go to jail. She quickly stood in front of Wu Mei to protect her.

“I was the one who beat him up. If you want to arrest someone, arrest me.”

“This has nothing to do with my daughter! Wu Pang was the one who threatened me to hand over my shares. I only did this because I lost control of my emotions. Besides, I have a history of mental illness. You can verify that!”

Mother Wu was so anxious that her voice was slightly choked as she said, “When my emotions are unstable, I will do hurtful things…”

Wu Mei’s eyes were filled with shock when she heard Mother Wu’s words.

She knew that Mother Wu had a sore spot in her heart and was unwilling to bring up her experience in the sanatorium.

However, Mother Wu had exposed her history of mental illness in public just to protect her.

At the thought of this, Wu Mei felt touched. She patted Mother Wu’s shoulder and tried her best to calm Mother Wu down with a gentle voice as she said, “Mom, do you believe me?”

Wu Mei looked into Mother Wu’s eyes and said with a smile, “I’ll be back soon. It’ll be fine.”

Wu Mei raised her hands to hug Mother Wu and whispered into her ear, “Go home and wait for me. I’ll go to the police station to get my statement taken. I’ll be back soon.”

Mother Wu shook her head in disbelief. She grabbed Wu Mei’s hand tightly.

However, Wu Mei gently pried her fingers apart and walked to the Police Chief’s side. She said, “Let’s go.”

The Police Chief quickly brought Wu Mei back to the police station. He opened the car door for Wu Mei, his actions and demeanor filled with respect.

Yang Shan and Wu Yi exchanged glances and felt that something was amiss.

At the police station, the Police Chief brought over hot tea and took Wu Mei’s statement personally. After learning about the situation at that time, he hurriedly said, “Your actions were self-defense. There’s definitely no problem with that.”

“You can leave anytime now. If Wu Pang attacks and harassses you and your mother again in the future, you can call the police!”

Looking at Wu Mei’s expression, the Police Chief probed, “We can also mobilize police officers to protect you and your mother.”

Wu Mei sipped her tea and smiled as she said, “Thank you, Police Chief. I can handle my own matters. Sorry to trouble you today.”

The Police Chief quickly shook his head and personally escorted Wu Mei out of the police station.

Wu Mei walked to the main door of the police station. On the other hand, Yang Shan and Wu Yi, had already contacted several media outlets and were blocking the door with cameras. The flashing lights were somewhat dazzling as they shone on Wu Mei. She frowned and looked at Yang Shan and Wu Yi. These two women are really troublesome.
