Chapter 1100 - 1142: Troublemakers

Chapter 1100: Chapter 1142: Troublemakers

At that moment, a few policemen approached from a distance. Ling’s mother, who had been lying on the car hood watching Huo Junmo and Ling Yueyue, didn’t notice the cops coming closer. Instead, Ling’s father and the second sister noticed them and Ling’s father hastily stood up, walked to the hood, gently tugged on Ling’s mother’s clothes, and whispered, "Get down quickly, stop making a fuss, the police are here!"

Ling’s mother forcefully shook off Ling’s father’s hand and declared confidently, "So what if the police are here? It’s hard for officials to meddle in family affairs. This is my daughter’s and son-in-law’s home, why should I be afraid of them?"

Ling’s father frowned, persuasively and frightened, "But even if they are your daughter and son-in-law, you don’t need to act like this! Come down quickly! Speak properly; it will be bad if you’re taken to the police station!"

"...!" Ling’s mother was just about to retort when the police had already reached beside her. Seeing her lying on the car hood, one policeman didn’t say a word and rudely pulled her down from the car forcefully, making Ling’s mother fall from the hood and hit the ground.

"Ouch...!" She cried out in pain, falling on the ground with her arms and legs flailing.

Two policemen didn’t care how she fell, directly dragged her away from Huo Junmo’s car, while another went to the car window to salute Huo Junmo.

Huo Junmo rolled down the window and said gently, "We are in a hurry now, everything is left to you, thank you for your work!"

Seeing Huo Junmo being so polite, the policeman quickly replied, "President Huo, please drive safely, we will handle the matter properly!"

"Thank you!" Huo Junmo smiled and nodded, closing the window as the car slowly drove away.

Watching Huo Junmo’s car drive away, Ling’s mother was furious and her eyes turned red. She struggled desperately and yelled, "What are you doing? Let me go! I’ll tell you, I haven’t broken the law, why are you arresting me? I’ll sue you! You are abusing your power and hurting innocent citizens!"

Seeing this, Ling’s father hurried over, helplessly saying, "Honey, forget it, let’s go home! Since Yueyue doesn’t welcome us, why are we still here? Why make the sisters sleep on the streets with us?"

Ling’s mother didn’t think twice before retorting, "Why? Why should I go back? I don’t want to go back, I don’t! I just want to stay here. Ling Yueyue is my daughter, Huo Junmo is my son-in-law; it’s only right that they support me! I obviously have a wealthy son-in-law, why should I go back to the countryside to suffer? You can go back, but I certainly won’t!"

"You...!" Seeing Ling’s mother so stubborn, Ling’s father could only sigh deeply but was helpless.

Unwilling to waste time with Ling’s father, Ling’s mother looked at the approaching police and shouted, "Let me go, I’ll tell you, Huo Junmo is my son-in-law, why are you arresting me? Am I breaking the law by being at my son-in-law’s door? Let me go, I need to find my daughter and son-in-law!"

Upon hearing Ling’s mother’s words, the three policemen laughed openly, their laughter full of sarcasm.

Listening to their mocking laughter, Ling’s mother felt humiliated, "What are you laughing at? I am his mother-in-law, if you don’t believe me, go check. His wife is Ling Yueyue, my daughter! I am the eldest daughter!"

One of the policemen stopped laughing, wiped tears of laughter from his eyes, "You’re President Huo’s mother-in-law? Do you even know your place? How dare you pretend to be President Huo’s mother-in-law? If you really were President Huo’s mother-in-law, why would he personally call our police station asking us to arrest you? Enough, don’t lose your mind, don’t delude yourself, just come with us peacefully! If you cooperate, we won’t make it difficult for you, but if you insist on staying here, don’t blame us for being unkind!"

Ling’s mother looked at them warily, asked with panic, "What do you want to do?"

The policeman coldly replied, "Of course, using forceful measures to take you to the police station! If we have to use force, what happens at the station, will be out of our control!"

Upon hearing this, Ling’s mother’s heart sank, angrily said, "You bastards, you’re threatening me! What’s the difference between you and gangsters? You’re supposed to be the police, to seek justice for us common folk!"

She has lived for half her life, mostly in the countryside, seldom encountering gangsters, never having dealt with them!

However, when she made trouble at Ling Yueyue’s school gate a few months ago, gangsters captured her, threatening her not to make a fuss, or they would kill her!

She never saw such a situation before, let alone gangsters, she was frightened and returned to the countryside with her husband, never daring to come to Jin City again!

But now, hearing the policeman’s words, she recalled the scene of gangsters threatening them and felt alarmed!

Are the police in big cities just like gangsters? Always intimidating and threatening people?

"We serve the common folk, but we never said we’d serve troublemakers! People like you, disturbing public order, we arrest to remove harm for the people! Come, follow us now, don’t waste any more words, we don’t have time to waste with you!" Saying this, impatiently pushed Ling’s mother forward.

Terrified by their previous words, Ling’s mother didn’t dare to resist, obediently followed them.

Ling’s father hurriedly packed up with the elder and second sisters and followed along.

As Ling’s father’s family of four was taken to the police station, Huo Junmo had already driven to Huo Tian Group.

With an emergency meeting scheduled, upon arriving at the company, Huo Junmo first settled Ling Yueyue in the president’s office, then went to the meeting!

When Huo Junmo arrived at the meeting room, all the high-level staff were already present, standing up as he entered, only sitting down once Huo Junmo took the main seat.

With the meeting underway, Ling Yueyue, bored, lay on the sofa playing with her phone.

This meeting was relatively long, soon reaching noon, yet the meeting was still ongoing. Ling Yueyue fell asleep on the sofa unknowingly.

Returning to the office, Huo Junmo found Ling Yueyue asleep on the sofa, took a thin blanket from the next-door resting room to cover her, glanced at his wristwatch, and left the office again.

He told the secretary Li Na waiting outside the office, "I have to go out, you are in charge of the office work, and look after my wife. If she wakes up and asks, just answer truthfully!"
