Chapter 16 : The Issue of Eradicating Pornography Is Not My Concern

Meng Yu glanced back.

Not seeing Chi Lin and his group of lackeys chasing after her, she let out a sigh of relief.

“What’s wrong?” Meng Yu looked at Song Zhiyi. “That person… he looks really familiar.”

“He’s the ex-boyfriend of the deceased, Chi Lin.”

“Damn, so he’s not…” Meng Yu widened her eyes in surprise and, noticing the looks people were giving her, lowered her voice. “A murderer?”

“He’s still just a suspect,” Song Zhiyi said angrily, remembering the audio she heard last night. “The police have spoken with him.”

Meng Yu made a face of disdain. “Just looking at him, I feel like it’s definitely him!”

Look at that rich second-generation guy, acting like nothing’s wrong and still daring to come to B University to flirt with girls. Clearly, he’s looking for his next target!

“There’s no evidence, so don’t say that. You could be sued for defamation.”

“…”

But no matter what, seeing Chi Lin’s annoying look made her want to see the police arrest him and teach him a lesson.

“Yuyu, be careful of him. If he comes after you, just call the police,” Song Zhiyi said. She wasn’t worried about herself since she was already doing an internship.

But Meng Yu was different—she was still in school.

Especially since Meng Yu had just slapped him. For a rich second-generation guy, getting revenge on a woman is as easy as playing with an ant.

“Don’t worry.”

In fact, Meng Yu thought Song Zhiyi might be in more danger. After all, that jerk had tried to hit on her.

But luckily, Song Zhiyi wasn’t in school, and her husband was the captain of the criminal police team. Catching him would be as easy as catching a mouse, right?

…

Friday.

The editorial department where Song Zhiyi worked was planning a team-building activity today.

“Where should we go? Let’s vote on it.” A male colleague held several small pieces of paper with options written on them: bar, KTV, bathhouse, massage…

“Men really like places like bathhouses, huh?” A married female colleague looked at him with disdain.

“What’s wrong with that? Getting a massage from a pretty girl, relaxing the body and mind, what’s the problem?”

“Yeah, Sister Liu, you don’t understand. It’s just what men like.”

Sister Liu snorted. “Of course, I understand.”

Lin Qiqi whispered to Song Zhiyi, “Sister Liu’s husband loves going to bathhouses. Last time, he went with his company’s big boss to soak their feet, and Sister Liu caught them. The scene… tsk tsk!”

“You know about that?”

“Of course. Sister Liu took me along, or else I wouldn’t even know about it.”

“…”

Probably to help you write a news expose?

“Alright, this is for team-building, not a men’s event.” Sister Liu tore up the bathhouse paper and tossed it into the trash.

The male colleague: Shivering.

In the end, the team-building location chosen was KTV, a safer choice that wouldn’t cause trouble.

After all, once the door to the private room is shut, you can scream all you want inside.

“Let’s go, Zhiyi!” Lin Qiqi packed her bag and reached out to link her arm with Song Zhiyi’s.

“I’ll make a phone call.”

“To your boyfriend, right?”

“Yeah.”

Well, it made sense. She had seen Song Zhiyi’s boyfriend pick her up every day this week, so it was time to let him know.

Song Zhiyi went to the tea room and called Chen Mo.

The phone rang a few times before it was answered.

“Hello?” Chen Mo’s deep, magnetic voice came through the phone.

“…”

Song Zhiyi rarely called Chen Mo. First, he was a policeman, and she never knew when he would be free, so she was afraid of disturbing him.

Second… she had already troubled Chen Mo enough. If she could handle something on her own, she wouldn’t bother him.

“Brother Chen Mo, I’m going on a team-building outing with my colleagues today. I’ll be home later.”

“Later, how late?”

“Uh… I’m not sure, but tomorrow is the weekend, so I think they might stay out late.” This was Song Zhiyi’s first team-building event since starting her internship, and she definitely had to go.

“At the latest, until 9 PM. I’ll pick you up.” Chen Mo, of course, wouldn’t limit her social activities, but he also wouldn’t let her stay out too late. “It’s just that there’s work at the department today, so I’ll be off at around 9.”

“Alright.”

In fact, compared to going out to play, Song Zhiyi preferred staying at home.

When she saw that male colleague who wanted to go to the bathhouse packing up his computer, it suddenly occurred to her to ask Chen Mo something. She quietly called his name.

“I’m here.”

“Uh…” Song Zhiyi asked in a low voice, “You… do you go to bathhouses?”

Earlier, Sister Liu said that all men like going to places like that to relax.

I wonder if Chen Mo would like to go as well?
Maybe she could learn something like massage…

“Bathhouse?” Chen Mo paused. “The issue of combating prostitution is not my concern.”

Song Zhiyi: “…”

That wasn’t what she meant.

“Are you reporting a bathhouse?”

“No… I’m not.”

Alright, it seems Chen Mo doesn’t need a massage after all.

Song Zhiyi hung up the phone, turned off the office lights, and went downstairs to find Lin Qiqi.

“Hehehe~” Lin Qiqi flashed her familiar, creepy smile. “You’ve been reporting for so long. Does your wolf friend have strict rules? Doesn’t let you go out and play?”

With a beautiful and soft girlfriend like Song Zhiyi, his masculinity must be quite strong, right?

“No, he said he would pick me up at 9.”

“That’s still not ‘no’?” Lin Qiqi couldn’t understand. “Sis, it’s 9 o’clock! The nightlife hasn’t even started yet!”

“I usually go to bed by 10.”

Lin Qiqi: (°Д°)

A few seconds later.

Lin Qiqi: o(////▽////)q

“So you sleep with your wolf friend, huh? I get it~ I get it~~” Turns out, she has a ‘night’ life too.

“You’re just reading some adult novels, aren’t you?”

“Yeah!”

She actually admitted it so confidently?

The editorial team arrived at the ‘Night Song’ KTV, where twelve people booked a large private room, bought some snacks and drinks, and immediately started singing.

Song Zhiyi had been to a KTV a few times during her school days, but she mostly listened to others sing.

The songs she picked were always at the end, and by the time they were about to leave, she never got a chance to sing.

Over time, she found KTV boring and stopped going. The only time she went during university was for a birthday celebration with her dorm mates, where they rented a small private room and took turns singing.

“Come on, let’s play dice and drink!” A few male colleagues immediately took out the dice from the coffee table, eagerly pulling the girls over to play.

“Xiao Song, come play.” A male colleague cheerfully pulled Song Zhiyi over.

“Yeah, yeah, Xiao Song should join us,” another added.

Among the editorial team, Song Zhiyi was the most beautiful and the youngest, and she seemed to be single!

That was the key point.

Who wouldn’t want to play games with such a beautiful and soft girl?

“I can play, but I don’t drink,” Song Zhiyi said.

“Huh? We came to KTV and you’re not drinking? Isn’t that a bit inconsiderate?”

They wanted to get the pretty girl drunk so they could have a chance to take her home!

“Da Peng, you’re out of luck. Zhiyi has a boyfriend. He’ll come pick her up later. If you get her drunk, watch out for her boyfriend beating you up!”

“…”

Really? She has a boyfriend!

Sigh…

If only they had acted when Song Zhiyi first started interning!

Although Song Zhiyi wasn’t drinking, she still had quite a bit of juice. She checked her phone and saw it was 8:30. In half an hour, Chen Mo would be there to pick her up.

“Qiqi, I’m going to the restroom and also borrow a power bank; my phone’s almost out of battery,” Song Zhiyi said. Her phone was below 20% and she didn’t want to risk Chen Mo not being able to find her later.

“Huh?” The noise in the private room was loud, and Lin Qiqi didn’t quite catch it, but she seemed to hear something about a power bank, so she nodded. “Okay, go ahead.”

Song Zhiyi grabbed her bag and left the room.

‘Night Song’ was quite big, so she first went to the front desk to get a power bank.

“Excuse me, which way to the restroom?”

“Turn left down that hallway, then turn left again,” the staff politely responded.

“Thank you.”

After plugging in her phone, Song Zhiyi wandered through about three hallways before finding the restroom.

Just then, a short, skinny guy walked out of the men’s restroom, holding a cigarette in his mouth and heading back to the private room without washing his hands. When he saw Song Zhiyi walking toward him, he stopped.

Song Zhiyi instinctively moved to the side, afraid he might be drunk.

As soon as she entered the women’s restroom, the guy suddenly smirked, took off running.

The young beauty that Master Chi asked him to look out for was here!

He quickly rushed to inform Master Chi.
