Upon learning the news, Shen Lu rushed to the police station immediately.
She was now sitting in the office, with Nan Luzhi beside her covering his swollen face, his neck showing distinct purple bruises from fingers.
"Chief, is this how you treat a suspect? Especially when my client is not the actual perpetrator."
Facing them was the chief with a smile plastered across his face, continuously uttering apologies.
"Lawyer Shen, there must have been some misunderstanding in this matter. Let's all calm down and discuss how we can better handle this situation."
The chief then cast a glance at Yan Ren, who was standing by his side with a grim face, not saying a word.
He sighed, then turned to Nan Luzhi and said: "Mr. Nan, Yan Ren has always been a formidable and good officer. He made a mistake today, and I apologize to you on his behalf. I hope you can forgive him."
After speaking, he stood up and bent forward to apologize in the direction of Nan Luzhi.
