Chapter 832: I Need Him Now
Perhaps he did not expect Jian Ai to have such an imposing manner at such a young age. The person was immediately frightened. When he came back to his senses, he nodded solemnly. “Go ahead.”
According to the rules, minors were not fully criminally responsible. As long as they entered the police station, they should contact their parents.
Jian Ai didn’t go far. She stood by the window in the corridor and called Bai Zhou.
“The police station?”
When Bai Zhou heard Jian Ai’s words, he couldn’t help but be shocked.
Why was she sent to the police station just a few hours after arriving in the capital today?
“Are you okay?” Bai Zhou quickly asked. He was most concerned about Jian Ai’s safety.
Jian Ai didn’t have time to tell Bai Zhou the entire story. She only said softly, “I’m fine, but I have some things to resolve. Do you have anyone reliable in the capital? Someone with some power…”
The meaning of ‘someone with some power’ was very deep. It was obvious that he could not be an ordinary person.
On the other end of the phone, Bai Zhou couldn’t help but pause for a moment. After a while, he slowly said, “Yes, but it might not be the person you want to see.”
Jian Ai couldn’t help but feel suspicious.
It might not be the person she wanted to see?
Was there anyone she didn’t want to see?
Jian Ai seemed to have guessed something. She couldn’t help but ask Bai Zhou in a low voice, “Could it be… one of the twelve guards?”
“Yes,” Bai Zhou replied readily. Then, he said, “If you think the time is not ripe, you can hide your identity for the time being.”
Jian Ai thought for a moment and felt that there was no need. After all, the twelve guards had appeared one after another. Since she could accept Bai Zhou and the rest staying by her side, why would she want to reject others?
She just didn’t want her appearance to disrupt others’ lives.
However, now was the time when she needed the other party. Therefore, meeting him now was also an opportunity to acknowledge him.
“There’s no need to hide it,” Jian Ai said softly. “I need him now.”
“Understood.” After saying this, Bai Zhou asked Jian Ai for the police station’s address before hanging up.
Taking a deep breath, Jian Ai felt inexplicably nervous and expectant.
What kind of person was one of the twelve guards with status and power in the capital?
Returning to the seat in the corridor, Jian Yichen frowned and looked at her. Then, he said softly, “Do you have family in the capital? Otherwise, I can call my uncle.”
Seeing Jian Yichen frown but care about her, Jian Ai couldn’t help but smile.
“Don’t worry, I can resolve it,” Jian Ai said.
This was Yang Xiaoman’s family’s business, which was also her business. It had nothing to do with Jian Yichen. Jian Ai was already very touched that he accompanied her to the police station, so she naturally wouldn’t let him trouble his family.
Jian Yichen didn’t insist. At least in his opinion, Jian Ai seemed to be confident and didn’t need him to worry too much.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in casual clothes walked over from the end of the corridor.
The man looked to be in his forties. He had a medium build and ordinary looks, but such a person exuded an official aura from head to toe.
When a police officer beside them saw this person, he quickly walked forward. “Superintendent Liang.”
Liang Peng glanced at Jian Ai and the rest sitting on the bench and narrowed his eyes. “Where’s Xiao Wang?”
