Return to the City: The Strongest King
Chapter 2518 - 2305: I'll Stay and Take Another Look Myself
"Thank you, Deputy Director Qiao, thank you, Officer Li," Song Xiaodong said.
"Well done, Officer Li, take your people back," Qiao Yutong said to Officer Li.
"Deputy Director Qiao, I'll be leaving then."
"Alright."
Qiao Yutong and Song Xiaodong watched as the group of officers walked further away.
"Why aren't you leaving?" Song Xiaodong asked Qiao Yutong.
"You're asking me to leave?" Qiao Yutong asked Song Xiaodong.
"No, no, that's not what I meant," Song Xiaodong quickly denied.
"Then what do you mean?" Qiao Yutong asked again.
"I just want to ask why you're staying," Song Xiaodong said.
"I'm not familiar with this local police station or this Officer Li. They sent so many people to help me, which is considerate, so I feel bad keeping them here, so I let them leave first. If they can't find anything, I'll stay and take a look myself," Qiao Yutong said.
"Oh…"
"Deputy Director Qiao, I have a question," Song Xiaodong said.
"Don't call me Deputy Director!" Qiao Yutong said.
"Tong Tong."
"What do you want to ask?" Qiao Yutong said.
"I want to ask, since you could send Officer Li, why did you come personally?" Song Xiaodong asked with a sly grin.
"Pretending not to know!" Qiao Yutong raised her fist to punch Song Xiaodong.
"I don't know, that's why I'm asking!"
"Our industrial giant in Minghe, Mr. Song Xiaodong, chairman of the Su Corporation, requested our police station's assistance. As Deputy Director, of course, I must personally go. Otherwise, if we neglect Mr. Song, our entire police station would be in trouble!" Qiao Yutong sarcastically spouted a bunch of official-sounding words.
"Oh dear, Deputy Director Qiao personally gracing us with her presence, I, Mr. Song, am truly honored!" Song Xiaodong hurriedly played along.
"Ugh!"
"What about Shen Jiayan?" Qiao Yutong asked Song Xiaodong.
"The film crew was halfway through shooting when these things happened. Actually, I have a way to completely heal Shen Jiayan. I'm the Divine Doctor; even if it's a car accident, I can quickly cure it. But that's not the solution. Shen Jiayan is a naive kid, not wary of anyone. Imagine, someone put glass shards in her shoes, and she still has the heart to go have hot pot with them. Which adult would do such a thing?" Song Xiaodong said.
"If it's really Feng Yuzhi who did it, then you have to help me a bit more, and I'll investigate further," Qiao Yutong said to Song Xiaodong.
"Alright, but do you have things at the bureau to attend to?" Song Xiaodong asked Qiao Yutong.
"No, Old Zhao heard I was coming to you and smiled so much he'd love to kick me out, telling me to go freely, the bureau's work is all left to Comrade Xiao Chen," Qiao Yutong replied.
"Then thanks for your hard work today," Song Xiaodong said.
"Buy me a meal, I don't work for free," Qiao Yutong replied.
"No problem, no problem."
Qiao Yutong pulled Song Xiaodong along to investigate around the restaurant for a while, and at noon, Song Xiaodong and Qiao Yutong returned to the hospital.
Shen Jiayan had woken up, Xiao Yingying and Zhang Lijiao were by her bedside.
"Brother Xiaodong, Tong Tong, how's the investigation going?" Xiao Yingying asked Song Xiaodong and Qiao Yutong.
"There's no particularly useful clue," Song Xiaodong replied.
"What's there to investigate? Shen Jiayan herself said it was Feng Yuzhi who pushed her from behind," Zhang Lijiao said.
"Even so, without evidence, we can't do anything against Feng Yuzhi," Qiao Yutong said.
"What should we do then? Just let it go? Is there no justice? Let the one named Feng do as she pleases?" Zhang Lijiao, hearing what Qiao Yutong said, immediately exploded in anger.
"Patriarch Song, I'm really sorry, I was too careless. I thought Feng Yuzhi sincerely wanted to apologize to me," Shen Jiayan weakly said to Song Xiaodong.
"Although it's not entirely your fault, you have to learn a lesson from this. In the future, you need to be more cautious, not believing whatever anyone says," Song Xiaodong couldn't help but admonish Shen Jiayan.
"I understand, Patriarch Song," Shen Jiayan lowered her head.
"Patriarch Song, President Xiao, our company still has many other excellent actresses. Since I can't act for now, how about giving this opportunity to work with Boss Niu and Director Zhou to them?" Shen Jiayan said to Song Xiaodong.
"What nonsense, if I can cure you once, I can cure you a second time," Song Xiaodong said, taking out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket and pouring out a pitch-black elixir.
"From now on, stay away from that person named Feng, don't even say an extra word to her," Song Xiaodong said, handing the elixir to Shen Jiayan.
"Patriarch Song…"
"Yingying, get a glass of water," Song Xiaodong said to Xiao Yingying.
Xiao Yingying brought a glass of water and handed it to Song Xiaodong, who gave both the glass and the elixir to Shen Jiayan.
"Take the medicine pill, sleep through the night, and you'll be back to normal the next day, ready to continue acting. Don't worry, we'll definitely find evidence of Feng Yuzhi pushing you, and we'll have her imprisoned," Song Xiaodong said to Shen Jiayan.
In the afternoon, Qiao Yutong alone continued investigating around the incident site for a long time. In the evening, Song Xiaodong, Xiao Yingying, and Qiao Yutong had dinner together.
The next day, Feng Yuzhi came to the filming set, arriving earlier than anyone else.
"Miss Feng, why is it that every time something happens to Miss Shen, you turn up so early the next day?" Zhou Yuanzhi, who arrived second to the set, couldn't help but mock Feng Yuzhi.
