Quick Transmigration: Help, The Male Leads Are All Broken!

As soon as Su Tang arrived at the police station, before the officers could even begin their investigation, she spoke up, "Officer, I suspect someone drugged my cocktail."

Facing such a beautiful person, coupled with Su Tang subconsciously softening her demeanor, she looked like a little lamb straying into a wolf pack. The female officer, before her male colleague could react, offered comfort, "Don't worry, we'll investigate this. Do you need anything? I can get it for you."

Su Tang smiled, her eyes crinkling at the corners, looking particularly adorable. "Thank you, Officer. I'm fine. I was just frightened. They're my former colleagues. My boss recently started his own business, and I left with him. I thought they just wanted to get together, but I didn't expect…" Her voice trailed off, her expression dimming. However, before anyone could comfort her, she took a deep breath and consoled herself, "It's okay now. I've seen their true colors."

The police sympathized. This wasn't an uncommon occurrence; just another shady business tactic. As the boss's assistant, and having left with him, she might have access to trade secrets. They probably tried to set her up to steal confidential information.

"It's not your fault. Next time, be more careful and don't be fooled again."

The officer's comfort brought a smile back to Su Tang's face. Not long after, Shen Yuan arrived.

The officers had initially thought Su Tang looked familiar, but when they saw Shen Yuan, they were stunned.

Shen Group, a household name in City B, the leading enterprise, and headed by one of the richest men in the city. When Shen Yuan returned to the country to take the helm, he did a personal interview, and that issue of the magazine sold out, making him more popular than a celebrity. His recent resignation had also caused a stir, putting him back in the spotlight.

So, this little assistant was Shen Yuan's assistant?

The officers were shocked but quickly recovered. "Mr. Shen."

Shen Yuan's expression was cold and stern. Even though he had resigned as CEO of Shen Group, he didn't appear the least bit downtrodden. He nodded to the officers, but his gaze remained fixed on Su Tang.

The officers, fearing the magnate's displeasure might be directed at the assistant, were about to speak when Su Tang looked at him with wide, teary eyes.

"Shen Yuan, I was so scared."

Compared to her previously strong and composed voice, the little assistant's voice now trembled. She even stood up from her chair and threw herself into Shen Yuan's arms.

The officers: ???

This gentleman's mood seemed to have changed rather quickly.

Shen Yuan's face remained cold, his aura imposing. He was indeed angry. The Shen family wouldn't let him off the hook, and they certainly wouldn't let the young woman go either. But he hadn't expected her to knowingly walk into danger. She was asking for trouble.

Su Tang apologized first, clinging to his waist. "Shen Yuan, Ah Yuan, Yuanyuan, they were all bullying me."

Her complaining tone startled the officers, who took a step back, eager to distance themselves.

It wasn't them, it had nothing to do with them, they were just doing their job.

Shen Yuan's face was grim. He ignored her words and simply asked, "Was it fun?"

Su Tang pouted, as if blaming him. "Well, it's your fault. You go out and have fun without me now. Do you know I'm practically growing mold at home from boredom?!"

In her anger, she even slipped into a Taiwanese accent.

Shen Yuan chuckled in exasperation. Wasn't he doing this for her own good?

Working late every night, her health was already poor. This wasn't just playing around; with this much stress, how could she recover?

However, before he could speak, Su Tang continued, "I know you're doing this for my own good, but you also have to consider my feelings. Do you think I'm the kind of weak person who needs to hide behind you? Shen Yuan, if we're going to be together, I can't let you carry the burden alone. It's not fair."

Shen Yuan frowned. "What's unfair?"

This time, it was Su Tang's turn to laugh in exasperation. "What's unfair? Tell me, what's fair? Yes, the Shen family is targeting you now, and fundamentally, it's trouble you caused. But don't forget, if we're going to be together, we have to face it together. Whether it's the Ye family or the Shen family, if you don't accept it, don't agree, and just selfishly try to protect me, are you really sure that's what I want?"

After venting her anger, she deflated like a burst balloon, releasing her hold on him and slumping back into the chair. "Shen Yuan, don't forget how we were in America. I never hid behind you."

Shen Yuan was taken aback. She had never said these things to him before. He came home every day after she was asleep and left before she woke up. Although they lived together, they mostly communicated through WeChat, and when he was busy, he might only reply once every half a day.

But she had never complained, always cheerful. At least, in his eyes, she was happy.

However, he was wrong.

His parents' failed relationship had made him stubborn in some ways. In his view, loving someone meant protecting them, shielding them from any danger, like a delicate flower in a greenhouse, carefully and meticulously nurtured. But he forgot that his little young master never hid behind anyone.

She wasn't a greenhouse flower; she was a winter plum, strong and beautiful.

After venting, Su Tang ignored him and apologized to the stunned officers. "I'm sorry. Although I used a bit of entrapment, there's definitely something wrong with that KTV and that drink."

The officers were still in a daze. They knew the business world was like a battlefield, but they hadn't expected it to be so intense. This whole situation was dazzling, making it difficult to distinguish truth from falsehood.

"No, it's okay. Even if you used entrapment, those people still took the bait. If they took the bait, it means there was a problem to begin with." The officer finished, then glanced at Shen Yuan. They really hadn't expected this. They initially thought it was just a simple CEO and his assistant, but who knew it was a domineering CEO and his charming little assistant.

Although it was just a few added details, those details changed everything.

The police had work to do and couldn't just stand around watching the drama unfold. Soon, the results of the drink analysis came back.

It indeed contained a hallucinogen, and a significant amount at that.

Once this was involved, it was no longer a simple administrative detention but a criminal offense.

The situation became serious, and the officers' expressions turned grave. "Mr. Cheng, until the matter is clear, your communication devices must remain on and accessible at all times."

Su Tang nodded and signed a few documents before leaving the police station.

As soon as she stepped out the door, a heavy wool coat was draped over her shoulders.

Then, a slightly hoarse voice, filled with remorse and regret, said, "I'm sorry."

Su Tang froze. After a few seconds of hesitation, she tilted her head up slightly. "What did you say?"

"I said, I'm sorry. I didn't consider your feelings, and I was very selfish."

He stubbornly kept her behind him, even selfishly refusing to allow her to object.
