Contract Marriage: Love Has Finally Arrived

Chapter 1657: Chapter 1658: Justifiable Defense

The police officer’s expression stiffened, somewhat stunned.

Why did she tell him she was pregnant? What does being pregnant have to do with him?

Looking at Qin Feimo beside him, the police officer swallowed and smiled anxiously, "Hehe, Mrs. Qin, your pregnancy has nothing to do with me..."

"Precisely because of that, when Feng Chenlu struck me, my friend was worried the baby in my belly might be harmed, so she intervened. But that provoked Feng Chenlu’s anger, who called people over to beat my friend. Officer, if this happened to you, would you just stand by and watch your friend who stood up for you get beaten without doing anything?"

"Of course not!" The police officer said without hesitation, but after speaking, he realized the point Feng Jinglei was making.

"Neither would I," Feng Jinglei calmly responded.

Indeed, she hated her uncle’s family, especially Feng Chenlu. That strike, she didn’t regret, even if it meant taking criminal responsibility. But if she could resolve it through self-defense, she would certainly prefer that.

"Self-defense also requires bearing criminal responsibility?" Qin Feimo turned around and looked at the police officer.

Faced with the question, the police officer was at a loss for words.

Self-defense certainly doesn’t constitute a crime; it just requires civil compensation.

But this statement certainly wouldn’t convince Mrs. Feng, because she insisted that her daughter never struck, yet Mrs. Qin disfigured her with a single slash.

"But, Miss Feng didn’t attack your fiancée at the time, so that slash can’t be considered self-defense..." The police officer, though feeling pressured in front of Qin Feimo, carefully spoke, trying to handle the situation by the book.

"Who says?" Qin Feimo stared at him, his face cold and stern, "Did you see her not attack my fiancée?"

The police officer was embarrassed but had to smile, "Haha... Everyone present saw it was your fiancée who held Miss Feng hostage."

"I did that to rescue my sister who was being beaten, it was out of necessity." Feng Jinglei cooperated with Qin Feimo, knowing he was defending her, which was seemingly the truth.

At the time, holding Feng Chenlu hostage was to make those bodyguards stop so she and Xiaoqi could leave the tea restaurant. But she didn’t expect, even with the knife against her face, Feng Chenlu dared to move, which caused her to accidentally hit the knife on her cheek during resistance, splattering blood everywhere.

"Exactly!" Luo Xiaoqian also strongly agreed, staring at the police officer, "They were bullying us right under our noses; we have to resist or else we’ll be beaten to death! Are you going to take responsibility for that?"

Faced with that, the police officer was speechless.

"Also, when I held Feng Chenlu hostage, the knife was against her out of necessity, but I never intended to really harm her."

The police officer paused, looked at Feng Jinglei, and smiled, "Mrs. Qin, are you trying to say she cut herself? When we went in, the bloody knife was still in your hand."

"Yes, that’s exactly it." Feng Jinglei replied decisively.

Though Feng Chenlu didn’t cut her face with the knife herself, she did collide with the blade.

The police officer’s face froze...

Thinking: Mr. Qin, if your wife’s explanation is spread, I’m afraid no one would believe it... Hardly convincing.
