C13 I Am Going to Call the Police!

A month had passed, and it was finally Sunday. Chi Zaozao was curled up in her apartment, not wanting to move. The incident that had stirred her emotions had mostly settled in her mind. Every time she thought about it, she reassured herself, "It's just a thin layer, nothing to worry about."

But did she really not care?

"Chi Zaozao, you're so lazy. You've worked all week, and now that it's the weekend, you should relax a bit," Qiao Mumu said as she tried to pull Zaozao up. "Come on, let's go out shopping. Plus, I just got paid, so I'll treat you to something delicious." It had been a month, and every weekend, Zaozao would just lie in bed like she had lost her spirit. Mumu couldn't stand it any longer. Today, Zaozao was going out, whether she liked it or not. She had no choice.

"Alright, alright, I'll go out. Let me go, and I'll get ready."

"See? Staying cooped up at home isn't the solution."

The first thing Mumu did after they left was drag Zaozao to a hair salon. Zaozao was puzzled. "Why did you bring me here?"

"I just think you've had long straight hair for four years now. Aren't you tired of your look? Try some curls and maybe a new color. It'll make you look even more beautiful."

Chi Zaozao couldn't argue with Qiao Mumu. She had considered changing her hairstyle before, but her previous partner preferred straight hair. Over time, even after they parted ways, she couldn't be bothered to change it.

Today, she decided to go along with Mumu's suggestion, tidy up, and try a new hairstyle for a change of mood.

Unexpectedly, as Zaozao just settled into the chair, four men suddenly burst into the salon.

The salon owner, a flamboyant man, was startled and exclaimed, "Who are you? This is a legitimate business. I haven't done anything to provoke anyone!"

Zaozao stood up and pulled Mumu towards the door. "Boss, I've changed my mind. We're not getting our hair done. Goodbye."

Before they could reach the door, they were blocked. One of the men said, "Miss Jiang, you're the one we're looking for. Boss, continue with your business. Miss Jiang, please come with us."

Mumu held onto Zaozao tightly. "Who are you? Let go, or I'll call the police."

Zaozao struggled as well. "Let go of me. I don't know you."

The salon owner finally understood the situation and pointed at Zaozao and Mumu. "So it's you two causing trouble. I'm a law-abiding citizen; I wouldn't get involved in anything shady." Then, his tone softened as he addressed the men in black, "Hurry up and take these troublemakers away." He waved them off dismissively.

Qiao Mumu was getting anxious. She grabbed the hairdryer from the table and pointed it at the manager, shouting, "Shut up!"

Three people surrounded Chi Zaozao, while the remaining person spoke to Qiao Mumu, "Miss Mumu, we're not bad people. We're from the Di family. Our young master has something to discuss with Miss Chi. Don't worry, we won't harm her."
