Chapter 620: We’ve Nothing To Fear Since We’re In The Right

She had had a tiring day and had more to face tomorrow. He couldn’t let her exhaust herself further. Thus, he restrained himself and asked in a tone laced with affection, “Why do you tempt me then?”

Gu Zi was scorched by his gaze. She turned away, pulling at the blanket and pretending to tidy it up. She was flustered, but her tone was firm, “I didn’t do anything. It’s your lack of self-control, not my fault.”

Su Shen didn’t respond. He climbed into bed, pulling her into his arms, blanket and all. As she tried to turn away, his arm tightened slightly. One hand rested on her waist as he whispered into her ear, “I would never blame you. Sleep well, goodnight, my darling Gu Zi.”

Gu Zi, held in his arms, was a little dazed. Given the intensity of their previous interaction, they should be kissing, entwined in each other’s arms. Wasn’t his gaze just now filled with desire?

Had she misunderstood? Could she admit that she had been mentally preparing herself? He had fallen asleep already!

But perhaps it was for the best. She was indeed tired. She needed to rest well for the tough battle tomorrow. ‘Gu Zi, Gu Zi,’ she scolded herself, ‘stop having such thoughts!’

Gu Zi fell asleep with a hint of regret. But because she was in the arms of the man she cared for, inhaling his unique scent, she didn’t have trouble falling asleep despite the day’s events. Instead, she quickly drifted off into a sweet dream.

On the other side, after leaving the police station, Li Da’s parents took their relatives to settle down. Only after they had taken care of everyone did the couple rush to the hospital to see their eldest son, who had been poisoned.

After expressing their heartache for their eldest son, they began to discuss the day’s events. Li Er perked up at this, his eyes wide. Finally, the old couple was getting to the point!

Li Da’s mother said, “The person in charge of the shop came today. It’s not as easy to get compensation as you said. From their attitude, it seems they want the police to investigate. Are you sure you got sick from eating their food? This matter has involved the police now. If it turns out to be a misunderstanding, it will be a big deal.”

Li Da’s father also nodded, speaking timidly, “Yes, we’ve seen it clearly today. The person in charge of that shop has a complicated background.

“She can even get the daughter of Chief Gong to vouch for her. She’s also familiar with Captain He who’s handling the case. All the leaders in the police station greeted her. We, the common people, can’t afford to offend such a person. Think it over.”

Hearing this, Li Da also became anxious. He didn’t know that the person in charge of the shop in their town had such a high status. Could they still get their money?

He wouldn’t be found out, would he? He looked nervously at his younger brother, Li Er, seeking his opinion. Li Er, fearing that these three would ruin his plan, quickly reassured Li Da with a glance and then began to soothe the two elders.

“Mom, Dad, no matter how powerful her background, she has to act according to morality. Their shop’s food was unclean, causing big brother to be hospitalized for food poisoning. We’re asking for compensation, which is only fair. We’re in the right, so we have nothing to fear! And you don’t trust big brother enough. How could he not know why he was the one hospitalized?

“Even if big brother can be confused sometimes, I was the one who took big brother to the hospital, so I know. He fell sick not long after returning from the town and didn’t eat anything else on the way. The hospital diagnosed food poisoning. If it’s not their shop’s problem, whose problem is it?

“You should stop worrying here. It’s better to think about how to make the matter bigger and get the person in charge to compensate sooner.”

Hearing their second son’s words, the couple exchanged glances. It seemed that their second son had a point. They should indeed make the shop owner pay.

Their faces lightened a bit, and Li Da’s father said, “It’s not that easy. Now that the police are involved, we can’t make too much of a fuss. And the police will come to investigate and question us tomorrow.”

“Right, the person in charge of the shop will also come. She said she had some questions to ask in person. I’m still worried. I feel uneasy. What if the shop owner refuses to admit it?”

As soon as Li Da’s father finished speaking, Li Da’s mother chimed in, “You, why did you think of going so far to have breakfast? Now that this has happened, things have turned so chaotic. You don’t know this, but I spent a lot of money to invite your aunts and uncles to make a scene.

“I spent a lot of money to settle them tonight. I’m afraid we won’t get the compensation in the end. We’ll be at a big loss then.”
