Because I Cannot Hurt You

Zizi quickly checked her phone and found an unread message from a number.

She froze. As she opened and read it, she realized it was indeed Yunru's message. The timestamp also showed three hours back.

He smiled. "So it is there but you didn't read it."

Zizi had nowhere to hide. She felt she completely lost her face in front of him.

Since he sent the message, there was no use in lying.

"Enough! How dare you humiliate me! Know your place, you pathetic loser!"

Zizi was so mad that she wanted to tear that smirk off his face!

"Humiliate? Telling the truth is a humiliation for you, oh Princess Han Zizi?"

She almost stood in anger but just then the waiter arrived, bringing Soo Yunru's order. She quickly smiled and sat back.

Yunru dug in his food.

"Hm. Delicious!" He nodded in appreciation.

Zizi was disgusted by him. He had no class and elegance while he was eating according to her standards.

And Grandpa wants me to marry him who cannot even eat properly!

"Please stop. You are making me puke with the way you are eating."

"Huh? Hey, I am famished, okay? A cop's job has a lot of running around. Who cares about etiquette when you are so hungry?"

She sneered. "You and that Xinyi are the same! Disgusting! That's why we don't mingle with people like you. And if not for your sister, then we wouldn't ever have to! She is nothing but a man snatcher!"

*Bang!*

Yunru loudly banged his fist on the table, jolting her back. A dangerous glint flashed in his eyes and his voice was icy as he spoke,

"Hey, Princess Zizi. Enough, okay? Keep your mouth shut when you don't know anything about her. Don't make me arrest you on the charges of defaming my sister."

Zizi laughed. "You? Arrest me? Did you drink somewhere and then came here?"

He smiled as if giving her a warning. "You want to try? Let's see if your Grandpa saves you."

"Oh please! You will be the one in trouble if you dare lay your hand on Han Huizhong's granddaughter. Grandpa will eat you alive," she sneered. "I will say it as many times as I want. Xinyi is a white lotus! She's a home-wrecker! A selfish man-snatcher! And a man-snatcher like her only knows how to trick and seduce men!"

Yunru got up. "Alright. I heard enough. Game on."

He took out the handcuffs from his pocket and stepped near her. He smirked. "See, this is why I always carry a set of handcuffs. Who knows when I would encounter criminals like you?"

Zizi was aghast.

The people around watched the scene unfold in shock.

"Hey what is happening?"

"Aren't they on a date? Why is he suddenly arresting her?"

"Is this a kind of any roleplay?"

Yunru swiftly grabbed her hand and locked the handcuff on her wrist.

"How dare you Soo Yunru!" Zizi furiously stood up. "Unlock it right now!"

"I will only unlock it at our next destination and that is jail. I am sure you would love the place. It would be such a nice change in scenery for you."

Zizi resisted but it wasn't of any use. The cuff was already locked.

"Soo. Yunru!" She gnashed her teeth in hatred. "Let me go!"

Then she looked at the other customers and cried. "Help me! This man is a goon! He wants to kidnap me! Please help me."

The manager quickly came, hearing the commotion. "Sir-"

But Soo Yunru took out his cop badge and showed it to him. "I am just doing my job. Cleansing filth and toxicity from the society."

Filth? Toxic?

Did he call me a filthy person?

Her eyes turned red in anger and her jaw clenched.

She tremblingly raised her hand to slap him but he effortlessly caught it and threw her hand away.

He scoffed. "Another crime. Acting violently towards a police officer."

"Shut up!" She glared at the manager. "What are you doing? Call your security and throw him out! He has the nerve to arrest Han Zizi. He is a hooligan!"

"Third charge. Obstruction in justice. Wow, spoiled princess. You are looking for a long time in jail. Let's go and I will show you your new home."

"You-"

"And don't worry. I will do the honor and personally inform your grandfather and brother."

Yunru dragged her out of the hotel despite her resistance.

"Sir…"

Everybody was dumbfounded.

That man really arrested his date!

Zizi felt utterly humiliated with people watching and gossiping about her as she was dragged with a handcuff on her wrist.

Yunru dumped her in his car and sped off.

She violently protested in the car. "Soo Yunru! You will pay for this! Grandpa will never let you go!"

Yunru yawned. "Yeah, yeah whatever."

Han Corps.

"Did you get any information on Chyou's family?"

Zhiyuan's assistant - Si Bao shook his head. "No, sir. Somebody is really trying to hide all the information about that girl, most probably her father. I tried, by all means, possible, but there is no lead. It's like all the information is tightly secured."

Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes.

He knew I would look for him so he is not letting any lead slip.

But why? Why target Siying?

"Keep looking."

"Yes, Sir."

He paused.

"Did you learn anything about Caihong?"

"No, Sir. We only know that she arrived in Beijing with Zhu Xiaosi but after that, there isn't any clue."

"What about Zhu Xiaosi's home?"

"I investigated that but they aren't living there. It seems like they are living in a new place but its information is restricted. I am not able to access those files. I contacted all the property agents too but everybody is denying that they didn't deal with Zhu Xiaosi at all."

"One of them is lying and definitely has met him. Xiaosi must have contacted somebody for the deal of the new house."

He sighed and leaned back.

"Alright. Leave that to me. You keep searching for Chyou's parents."

"Yes, Sir," he bowed and left.

Who can have such tight security? There had never been a case where Si Bao couldn't find any information.

Zhiyuan's phone buzzed. He raised his brow.

Soo Yunru?

"Yunru."

"Well, well brother-in-law. How are you?"

"I am good. But why are you calling now? Aren't you supposed to be with Zizi?"

Yunru chuckled from the other end. "I called you regarding just that. I have some news about your sister. Why don't you visit us at the police station?"
