Chapter 230 - Desperation (1/2)

“You shut up! Don’t you want the remaining money that I owe you?”

“Who cares? I would rather watch you go to jail than get your money. Yun Xi has saved me, and I would never be so ungrateful as to scheme against her.”

“You…” Han Wanling’s eyes were full of fury. Unable to suppress her rage, she rushed forward to grab the recording device from Yuanjiu’s hands.

A police officer who was standing to one side of Yuanjiu saw this and rushed forward to stop Han Wanling.

“What are you doing? Are you going to beat up someone in front of the police?”

Officer Xiao Tang restrained Han Wanling as he looked at her with contempt.

“Miss Han, moments ago you were rallying everyone to catch the thief despite being the thief yourself. Now, you’re willing to do anything at all out of your desperation?”

Infuriated, Han Wan glared at the police officer who had clasped her by the wrist with rage in her eyes, “Who do you think you are? Take your dirty hands off of me!”

“You are now suspected of theft, so please come with us to the police station!”

“Get away from me! Don’t you see that he is setting me up? If you dare arrest me, I will make you regret it.”

If she was arrested and taken to the police station, the entire Jingdu area would find out about it tomorrow, and she wouldn’t be able to stay in her social circle anymore.

Officer Xiao Tang sneered and retorted unceremoniously, “Threatening to a.s.sault a policeman is also a crime, Miss Han. Burning bridges isn’t good for anyone. Besides, you have so many friends here today. Do you really want them to see you in such an unsightly state?”

Han Wanling turned her head and glared at Officer Xiao Tang viciously. “As a policeman, you have quite a sharp tongue. Perhaps you’re a fake policeman? Or were you sent by that b*tch to take part in this charade?”

Officer Xiao Tang seemed to have been expecting that she would say something ridiculous like this, and he pulled out his police officer’s ID from the pocket of his jacket. “Open your eyes to see this clearly. It’s illegal to pretend to be a police officer.”

Upon seeing the badge, name, and photo on the police officer’s ID, Han Wan felt exasperated and resentful.

She’d originally thought that everything was going smoothly according to her plans, and she’d finally had a chance to ruin that little b*tch Yun Xi. She had had no idea that that idiot Xiang Yuanjiu was going to betray her.

Even Liang Xinyi and Li Sinuo, two dumb b*tches who’d given her lots of trouble instead of doing what they were told, had dragged her down.

She had been penny wise, but pound foolish, in her scheme, and she had suffered extreme public humiliation today.
