Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Mr. Lin, Mrs. Lin, I’m really sorry. It’s all my fault.”
“The detention penalty has been lifted. You can take Lin Bai away at any time. Please follow me.”
The police officer in charge of handling the case led the way while constantly apologizing to Lin Haisheng and his wife as if he was afraid that they would have an opinion.
The difference in his attitude made Lin Haisheng and his wife very confused. They really wanted to know who had called him just now.
Who was helping them in the dark?
Lin Haisheng and his wife screened through all the people they could think of in their mind, and then denied them one by one.
When they reached the detention room, the police officer in charge of handling the case apologized to Lin Bai and Luo Yang in an extremely sincere manner.
“Mr. Lin, Mr. Luo, I made a mistake in judgment and misjudged your behavior.”
“Both of you are heroes who have done heroic deeds. I’ve?wronged you last night. Please be magnanimous and forgive me for my mistake in my work.”
“Also, my attitude yesterday was not good enough. Now, I solemnly apologize to all of you. I’m sorry.”
The police officers’ self-criticism stunned Lin Bai, Luo Yang, and Lin Haisheng.
At this moment, the door of the detention room was pushed open.
A middle-aged man, who was travel-worn, ran in.
The police officer in charge of handling the case was stunned when he saw the man. Then, he said respectfully,?“Hello, Chief.”
Lin Bai and the others were even more confused.
From the way the chief looked, it seemed like he had rushed here on purpose.
Just to send them away?
Just as they were thinking about it, the chief spoke.
“I’m very sorry. It was my incompetence that caused the mistake yesterday.?From now on, I will definitely strengthen the supervision and training of my subordinates to prevent similar incidents from happening again...”
Lin Bai and the rest were even more confused.
So the director had specially rushed over just to apologize in person?
Isn’t that a little too much?
Lin Bai and the others looked at each other, their faces full of confusion.
No one said anything.
The director continued to say a lot of apologetic words, as well as how to strengthen the supervision and management of his subordinates in the future.
After speaking for a long time, he was a little speechless, and the atmosphere gradually became cold.
Lin Bai had no choice but to force himself to speak, breaking the tension of the awkward atmosphere.
“It’s fine, it’s fine. It’s inevitable that there will occasionally be some minor mistakes in work.?Luo Yang and I only stayed here for one night. It’s not really a great mistreatment, much less harm. Let’s just forget about this matter.”
After Lin Bai said this, the bureau chief and the police officers who were handling the case clearly heaved a sigh of relief.
Their reactions made Lin Bai feel that they were very afraid that he would be angry.
But why were they so afraid?
Lin Bai really didn’t understand.
On the surface, he was just an ordinary college student. Why was he so afraid?
Someone must have helped him behind his back.
But who was that person?
Lin Bai couldn’t figure it out at the moment.
However, it wasn’t the time to think about it now.
He and Luo Yang didn’t sleep much that night. As for his parents, they didn’t sleep at all. They couldn’t hide their fatigue and exhaustion.
Lin Bai just wanted to go home with his parents and have a good sleep.
As for other things, he would talk about it later.
“By the way, can I have my phone back?”?Lin Bai asked.
When he and Luo Yang were brought back for detention yesterday, their phones had been confiscated.
Now that the detention penalty had been lifted, they naturally had to have their phones back.
That was his treasure. He could not lose it no matter what.
The police officer who was handling the case nodded repeatedly when he heard that. “Sure, sure. Please wait a moment.”
As he said that, he jogged over to get his phone and handed it back to Lin Bai and Luo Yang.
Lin Bai unlocked the phone and took a glance. He realized that there were more than a dozen missed calls and more than 50 unread messages.
All of them came from Yu Jinmo.
It seemed like that girl had been worried sick last night.
Lin Bai felt a little guilty.
“Alright, Dad, Mom, let’s go.”
Lin Bai put away his phone. He planned to call Yu Jinmo back to tell him that he was safe when he got home.
However, just as he walked out of the Public Security Bureau, he saw Yu Jinmo standing at the side with reddened eyes.
Yu Jinmo immediately pounced on Lin Bai and hugged him tightly when she saw him. She started sobbing.
“You scared me to death!”
“I couldn’t get in touch with you no matter what. Do you know how worried and scared I was?!”
“Why did you fight someone when you were fine? You scared me to death...”
The fear and grievance that she had held in for the whole night emerged at this moment.
Yu Jinmo lay in Lin Bai’s arms and cried until she was out of breath. freew(e)bnove(l)
Lin Bai’s heart ached terribly.
“I’m sorry for making you worry about me.?I really didn’t get the chance to contact you yesterday. My phone was confiscated.?I won’t do this again in the future. Don’t cry, be good.”
Lin Bai gently coaxed Yu Jinmo.
Lin Haisheng and his wife watched silently from the side. Their expressions were both surprised and relieved.
Lin Bai had never mentioned Yu Jinmo to them before, so they had only just found out that Lin Bai had a girlfriend.
Moreover, it seemed that the relationship between the two of them was quite close.
Not to mention other things, just Yu Jinmo’s worry about Lin Bai could at least prove that she truly loved Lin Bai.
Lin Haisheng and his wife looked at each other and smiled.
Their son had finally grown up and understood that it was a good thing to be in a relationship.
After Yu Jinmo calmed down, she noticed that Lin Bai’s parents?were standing behind Lin Bai and had been staring at him for an unknown period of time.
Although she had never met Lin Haisheng and his wife before, it was not difficult to tell that they were Lin Bai’s parents just by looking at them.
Yu Jinmo’s small face instantly turned red from embarrassment.
“Hello, Uncle... Uncle and Aunt.”
Yu Jinmo braced herself to greet them. She was so embarrassed that she wished she could turn invisible on the spot.
Lin Haisheng and his wife responded with a smile. Then, they looked at Lin Bai and asked with a smile, “Aren’t you going to introduce us?”
Lin Bai quickly said, “Dad, Mom, this is my girlfriend, Yu Jinmo.”
“Jinmo, these are my parents.”
Lin Haisheng and his wife looked at Yu Jinmo carefully. The more they looked at her, the more they liked her.
This girl was beautiful, but she was not ostentatious. Her clothes and manners made her look cultured. She was not a bad girl.
Mrs. Lin invited, “Jinmo, do you want to come home with us?”
Yu Jinmo nodded in a fluster. She was so nervous that she couldn’t speak properly.
“Sure, sure. Ah, that... Okay.”
Mrs. Lin smiled and said, “Don’t be so nervous. It’s just a casual meal and a chat.”
She really wanted to understand what kind of girl her son’s girlfriend was.
Lin Bai quietly held Yu Jinmo’s hand and said softly, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”
Feeling the warmth from Lin Bai’s palm, Yu Jinmo finally relaxed.
