Chapter 777 - Empress is on a polite hunt! (End) (1/2)

”Come in”, Xie Rong said upon hearing the knocking on the door, thinking that it was his secretary with some important news.

However, when the door was pushed open, two police officers entered his office with a lady officer while his secretary was standing behind the officers with terrified expressions.

”Officer...what are you doing here like this? It's my office. How can you barge into someone's workplace like this?” He asked coldly while standing in front of Xinyi protectively who was sprawled on the ground with her messy hair and smudged makeup, ruining her beautiful-elegant image. ,

The officer glanced at Xinyi and turned to the lady officer who was with him and signaled her, leaving Xinyi and Xie Rong dumbfounded.

” I am not going anywhere. I didn't do anything, you can't take me anywhere.” Xinyi protested while holding onto the couch in the office tightly and tried to get out of the lady officer's grasp who was trying to take her with them.

Xie Rong was in shock seeing the drama happening in his office. Seeing Xinyi crying and struggling, he finally got into his senses and stepped forward, ” Officer, you can't take my daughter anywhere like this. She is innocent. It was just a childish prank, they're family for god sake. Let me call my lawyer, he will deal with you.”

The officer who was watching the lady officer holding on to the girl whose shrill was making his ears hurt turned to Xie Rong and said, ” You can say that in the court. For now, I have to take her with us since we have a complaint against her for attempted kidnapping and two times attempt to murder. Your lawyer can come to the station, but we're taking her. Also, tell her to stop struggling otherwise we have to use force to take her with us. ”

” What?” Xie Rong's expressions turned pale upon hearing the charges being mentioned by the officer. Attempt to murder, that too two times? He would have handled it easily if it had been kidnapping only but attempt to murder is something..out of his reach.

Xinyi...what have you done?

” But she is fine, she is not even dead. How can you take me away from something that hasn't been done? Get off me!” Xinyi screamed while struggling to remove the woman's hands off her.

The lady officer frowned and commented, ” that's why it's a charge for an attempt to murder. Now stop moving and comply with us if you don't want to make things further complicated.” The lady officer said while putting handcuffs on her wrist as they dragged Xinyi out of the office.

Once out of the office, Xinyi tried to cover her face with her hands as everyone was watching the dire state of the princess of the Xie family who once used to be the dream girl of every guy in the office. Seeing everyone staring at her with shocked and gossipy gazes, she couldn't help but think why Xie Ming died that day?

This would have freed her from her misery at the least.

Xie Rong plumped on the couch in the office as he couldn't watch the sight of Xinyi being dragged away in front of everyone. His hands were trembling as he was not expecting Liwei to involve the police in this matter.

How can he…They're family. They have handled the matter privately but he was trying to pull them down for once and all.

As he was trying to register what just happened, his phone rang. He glanced at it and frowned seeing that it was from home. He picked up the phone and was wondering how to break this news to Xie Rouxi about Xinyi's arrest when he heard a fearful-quivering voice of his servant.
