"Jingjing, Mommy is sorry. I've been too strict with you lately. I'll definitely change. Can you forgive me?"
Jingjing heard her mother's apology and said innocently,
"Mom, I forgive you. Can I go play with my friends again?"
Ms. Wu nodded and said,
"Of course you can. Mom won't be so strict with Jingjing anymore."
Jingjing then happily started dancing with joy.
"Oh, I can play with Yao Yao again! I'm going to video chat with her and tell her the good news!"
After saying that, she broke free from Ms. Wu's embrace, got up, and ran back to her bedroom.
Ms. Wu looked at her cheering daughter; it had indeed been a long time since she had seen her daughter so happy.
At this moment, she finally resolved her inner conflict.
Even though she no longer has a husband, she still has her daughter by her side. What else could she possibly be upset about?
So, in the afternoon, Ms. Wu went to the Jiulihe Police Station again.
This time, however, her purpose was no longer to interrogate or accuse, but to apologize.
The female auxiliary police officer in the office was equally taken aback when she saw Ms. Wu arrive; she thought Ms. Wu had come to cause trouble again.
She immediately forced a smile and said,
"Ms. Wu, you're here again? What brings you here today?"
Unlike her usual arrogant demeanor, Ms. Wu smiled and said...
"Young lady, I'm here to see your supervisor and those two police officers. I want to meet them."
The female auxiliary police officer immediately took her to the interrogation room, and then hurriedly went to consult with the station chief, Wang Shouyi.
Upon hearing this, Wang Shouyi also looked troubled and said...
"Hey, is this an ultimatum? Go and call Cheng Suo, Mingcheng, and Xiaojie over here together,"
The group gathered together, and Cheng Hao let out a deep sigh.
"Oh dear, why is this woman here again?"
However, Wu Mingcheng showed no worry whatsoever, appearing completely confident.
Wang Shouyi said,
"Alright, never mind that, let's all go and see what kind of rules they have."
They all arrived at the interrogation room together, prepared to be berated by Ms. Wu.
To their surprise, when they came in, they saw Ms. Wu, who was 5.6 years old, with a beaming smile.
Upon seeing Wang Shouyi and his group, Ms. Wu rose apologetically and approached them.
Wang Shouyi, Cheng Hao, and the others were so frightened that they couldn't help but take a step back.
Ms. Wu then spoke up,
"Director Wang, Director Cheng, I'm so sorry, I've caused you all so much trouble,"
Upon hearing Ms. Wu's words, Wang Shouyi and Cheng Hao were immediately shocked. What was going on? This woman actually apologized to them?
Then, she went to Xia Jie and Wu Mingcheng and sincerely apologized.
"My two little girls, I sincerely apologize to you. I was being unreasonable and it was my fault. I hope you can forgive me."
Chapter 452 is finally resolved.
Xia Jie was completely stunned. She couldn't believe that the woman apologizing in front of her was the same Ms. Wu who had been unreasonable and argumentative just a few days ago.
Xia Jie's mind went blank; she didn't know what to say.
"what?"
Wu Mingcheng, standing behind the crowd, had already anticipated this scene and had reacted accordingly.
He said to the bewildered Wang Shouyi,
"Chief, why don't we sit down and talk first?"
Wang Shouyi gave Wu Mingcheng a deep look. If he wasn't mistaken, Wu Mingcheng must have used some underhanded tactics to change Ms. Wu's attitude.
He turned around, smiled at Ms. Wu, and said...
"It's nothing. There are areas where our work hasn't been done perfectly either. Come, let's sit down and talk."
Cheng Hao chimed in from the side,
"Yes, let's sit down and talk it over."
After Ms. Wu sat down, she began to sob.
“You may think I’m paranoid, and you’ve learned about my situation. Do you think I have an easy life?”
Being a doctor means working three shifts, being busy all day long, and having no time for anything else.
My husband works for a state-owned enterprise; his job is easy, he lacks ambition, and his income is less than mine, but I haven't said anything about it.
But he was having an affair, and I caught him red-handed. He even had the nerve to say that I neglected my family.
Now, he simply moved in with that slut.
I've sacrificed everything I could for this family. What do I have left? Just this child.
What if something happens to this child? How could I possibly survive?
Seriously, I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me, but if my child doesn't answer my phone once, it's not a big deal.
If they don't answer twice, I start having all sorts of wild thoughts. I think, what if my child's phone is off? I can't live with myself.
"But you're asking me to draw blood at this point? Isn't that practically asking me to die?"
Upon hearing Ms. Wu's words, Wang Shouyi glanced at Xia Jie beside him.
Upon hearing this, Xia Jie was immediately reminded of her mother, and her emotions suddenly became somewhat out of control.
She quickly stood up, turned around, opened the door to the interrogation room, and ran out.
Seeing this, Wu Mingcheng realized that Ms. Wu's words had touched a nerve with Xia Jie.
Ms. Wu seems to be fine now, he doesn't need to stay.
He then got up and walked outside.
"Chief, I'm going outside to check on Xiaojie,"
Dr. Wu was taken aback by Xia Jie's behavior. What was wrong? She hadn't said anything extreme.
Wang Shouyi and Ms. Wu explained,
"Look at this child, she's saddened by your words. She's a child with a tragic fate."
Her father was also a policeman who heroically sacrificed his life ten years ago while protecting his comrades during an operation to apprehend criminals.
Her family situation is very similar to yours now; it's her and her mother, and her mother treats her the way you treat your daughter.
"Dr. Wu, she really wasn't careful with her words at the time. I apologize to you on her behalf."
At this point, Dr. Wu stopped talking about Xia Jie's background.
Xia Jie ran downstairs in one breath, leaned against the wall outside the door, looked up at the sky, tears welling in her eyes.
She thought for a moment, then took out her phone and called Xia's mother, her voice trembling with tears as she called out.
"mom,"
Xia's mother asked anxiously,
"Xiaojie, I called you just now but you didn't answer. I was so worried. Is something wrong?"
Xia Jie said,
"It's nothing, I'm on a mission. Mom, you've been staying at Auntie's for quite a while, shouldn't you be back? I'll book your ticket."
Hearing that Xia Jie was alright, Xia's mother was relieved.
"I was just discussing this with your aunt. She said she'd send me back and book the tickets."
Xia Jie hurriedly said,
"Mom, do you still need Auntie to take you? If you don't want to walk alone, I'll take a day off to pick you up,"
Xia's mother quickly said,
"You don't need to come. Your aunt said she absolutely has to see me off; she's already booked the tickets. She's not an outsider, so don't worry about it."
Xia Jie sighed softly. Her mother was like a child, completely immature.
She had no choice but to say,
"Okay, give me a call when you'll arrive, and I'll come pick you and Auntie up."
At this moment, Wu Mingcheng came to her side.
Did you call your mom?
