Chapter 1274: A Change in the Situation
Chapter 1274: Chapter 1274: A Change in the Situation
Ning Yanan was a police officer, working within the ranks of Interpol. It was only because of the Dan Group’s case that she had remained in the American office to deal with the aftermath.
Once she returned to China, with her status as an unmarried mother, she feared it would cause a major scandal.
"When Mommy finishes dealing with her current work, I’m going to resign, take you somewhere quiet, and live a peaceful life, okay?" Ning Yanan gently touched her own belly, her lips curving into a wan smile.
Would you blame Mommy for not giving you a father?
Ning Yanan dared not ponder this question. She quickly gathered her things and, in a rush, grabbed her bag and left.
As soon as she arrived at the police station, Ning Yanan noticed that the atmosphere was somewhat strange.
She had just arrived, and everyone’s gazes were fixed on her, making Ning Yanan somewhat puzzled.
Her hand, instinctively protecting her belly.
It felt as if everyone could see she was pregnant, yet no one spoke up.
That odd atmosphere made it impossible to not let one’s thoughts run wild.
"Police Director Ning, the higher-ups want you to come to their office."
Just as Ning Yanan had entered the building, before she had a chance to return to her own office, an officer came to notify her.
"Whoosh—"
It was just a simple notification, but Ning Yanan heard the sound of sharp intakes of breath all around her, and her body stiffened.
Looking around with confusion.
"Nan, you might still be unaware, hurry and check our internal official website. There’s news about you; the higher-ups calling you in is probably related to this ugly... news."
A young female officer kindly gave Ning Yanan a heads-up.
"..."
Ning Yanan felt a chill run down her spine and quickly turned to enter her own office.
When she opened the official website and clicked on the message sent today, her whole body slumped in her chair.
On the vast banner of the official website, a photo of her kissing Jiang Jinchen was posted in the most conspicuous place, with a headline criticizing the conduct of middle-ranking police officers.
Someone had reported her for having a chaotic private life...
Ning Yanan’s face turned pale, and her hand holding the mouse trembled.
She tried to speak, but her teeth chattered.
The thing she feared most had still happened.
"Knock, knock—"
"Police Director Ning, the higher-ups have been waiting a long time for you; you should head over there quickly," the officer who had notified her earlier came again, his expression now very urgent.
"I know, I’ll go right away."
Ning Yanan squeezed out these words through clenched teeth, as if it took all her energy.
She stood up from her chair with shaking legs, feeling even breathing was painful, nervously placed a hand over her belly, and took deep breaths.
She must not panic, she must not panic.
She now had a baby; she had to be strong enough to protect herself in order to safeguard her child.
Ning Yanan mechanically marched forward, the image from the official website echoing in her mind.
She hadn’t expected Jiang Jinchen to actually let those photos leak out.
Ning Yanan felt as if a cloud of darkness hovered overhead that would never disperse, walked out of her office, and even the looks people gave her were tinged with gloom.
She dared not even look as she quickly passed through the workspace and pressed the elevator button.
As she stepped into the elevator, and just before the doors closed, she could still faintly hear the scattered chatter.
"Don’t talk like that; I really didn’t expect Nan, who always seems so proper, to do something like this..."
"I only heard that the Jiang Family and Jing Family announced their marriage today with great fanfare. If you think about it, Nan is the third party in someone else’s relationship. Will she be fired?"
