Chapter 212 Love and Care for the Morons (2/2)
It was until the police wanted to take the criminal away that she recovered from her daze.
”Thank you, detective comrades!”
Xie Wanwan really felt like kicking that b*stard to death. Nevertheless, with so many people around, she had to maintain her sweet and lovely public image.
”No need for thanks.” Tang Yuanchu took a look at her. ”If Miss Xie is convenient,” he thought for a moment, ”do make a trip to the station for a statement.”
”…”
Xie Wanwan was considered a victim in this case. It was only normal to ask her to make a trip to the police station for a statement.
However, as Xie Wanwan had been plagued by the cases previously, she felt headache at the mention of the police station.
She asked, ”Can I not go?”
”It's better to do so.” Tang Yuanchu took a look at the watch he was holding. ”What if there are information that requires you to destroy it personally?”
He was just trying to remind her, and Xie Wanwan instantly changed her expression.
That means, the sneaky fellow could have really taken some pictures?
The thought of being photographed under the skirt like that by a crook made her so disgusted that she got goosebumps all over…
Xie Wanwan was particularly sensitive to such incidents. When she noticed the weird looks of the co-workers around her as well as the cameras of the reporters, a cold sensation rose from the soles of her feet—her body went stiff and her face went ashen. Her back seemed to perspire profusely and was unable to utter a word.
To her, such a deed was abnormal and unforgivable.
However, an A-List celebrity should not lose her composure before the media.
The experience of being violated was a mark of shame on her and would not change because of her current status.
Being quite a sensitive one, Xiang Wan was able to detect Xie Wanwan's emotions fast and quickly chimed in.
”Detective Tang, leave this matter to me…”
”Oh, no problem.” Only then did Tang Yuanchu seemed to understand the reason for Xiang Wan's intervention. He quickly took a look at the reporters. ”All of you, please come over here. We just need everyone to answer a few simple questions.”
With that, he turned to He Wencai. ”Take down their name, company, job position, and contact numbers. Before this case is cleared up, nobody is allowed to spread news on this.”
”…”
The police was asking for cooperation, who would not comply?
”Nowadays, there are many criminal syndicates who would secretly take obscene videos and photos of women and sell them, turning a profit. Such acts are getting really rampant. I never expected you are so daring to do this even in the presence of the police?! You sure has a lot of guts. huh!” With that, Tang Yuanchu grabbed that sneaky fellow again and twisted his arms.
That was so painful that the sneaky fellow screamed in pain.
”Officer, I didn't do it. I'm not a member of a criminal syndicate. I won't sell the photos, either, I just wanted to keep them as a collection… private collection… I like Xie Wanwan. I'm a fan of Xie Wanwan, it's true. I promise…”
”Shut up!” Tang Yuanchu shouted at him fiercely. ”Everything will be clear after we investigate this matter.”
As the arms of the sneaky fellow was pinned behind his back by Tang Yuanchu, he started to perspire a lot due to the pain, so much so that he did not utter another word to defend himself.
Tang Yuanchu and another colleague escorted the suspect toward the police patrol car.
He Wencai and Xiang Wan were helping to take down the statements of the reporters at the scene.
They also followed according to what Tang Yuanchu had said earlier to remind everyone not to divulge a word of what had happened.
This was a matter that concerned a famous celebrity, especially a celebrity like Xie Wanwan that could garner a lot of attention. Even though she was the victim and it was not her fault, the moment the matter got publicized, the response from the public could be very different. A female celebrity like her would not only become the focus of public opinion, but she might also be ridiculed that she was creating hype for herself.
Even though this was an unfortunate incident to happen to a woman, there would always be people who would condemn the victim.
By doing this, Tang Yuanchu had, in turn, protected Xie Wanwan's privacy.
Xie Wanwan took a glance at him and took her clutch from her assistant.
”I'll go to the police station.”
”Sure,” Tang Yuanchu looked up and replied.
Xie Wanwan walked past him, heading toward her car that was parked not too far away.
There was a cooling breeze that brushed past at that moment, bringing a waft of the delicate fragrance of Xie Wanwan right to Tang Yuanchu's nose.
He felt as though a feather was tickling and poking at his sensitive nerves as well as his heart. That left him in a momentary daze where he thought he had went back to his teenage years, where he woke up from his afternoon nap and saw a beautiful girl who had just finished washing her hair, walked past him. The rich, refreshing fragrance of the shampoo and the nice smell of the body wash had a strong impact on his heart…
When one falls in love, the feelings would come flooding in like the tides.
Tang Yuanchu gazed at Xie Wanwan's back view for a long time.
”What are you looking at?” Xiang Wan elbowed him at the arm. ”Pay attention to your image!” she whispered.
Thump! Tang Yuanchu's heart skipped a beat and he immediately blushed. He quickly tried to explain himself as if his secret got found out.
”I was just thinking if she needed to make a trip to the police station.”
”Gentlemen chase after fair maidens, there's nothing to be shameful about.” Xiang Wan asked casually when she saw his flushed red face, ”Or I'll just get her to stay here for a statement instead?”
”… Urgh!” Tang Yuanchu quickly replied, ”There's too many people here. It's better for her to go to the police station.”
Xiang Wan raised an eyebrow, wearing a sly smile.
Tang Yuanchu felt embarrassed and hastily thought of a reason. ”After all, she's Captain Bai's good friend…”
”!” Xiang Wan did not know if she should be angry or amused. ”Tang Yuanchu, don't be like this. You'll lose friends easily. Now I really think that it must be the good and the kind-heartedness of the people that you are so well-liked and is such a popular online celebrity.”
”What do you mean?”
”Everyone is responsible for the love and care of morons.”
”…”
