Chapter 787: Chapter 787: Visiting Rong Weiwei at the Detention Center
Rong Weiwei was taken into police custody, a news that exploded and dominated the front pages of major media outlets.
The fervor showed no signs of dwindling in the short term.
Amidst the public uproar, HuanYu, the agency representing Rong Weiwei, had released two statements on the first day but had not made any other moves sinceâit was as if Rong Weiwei wasnât one of their artists.
Capital Detention Center.
A haggard Jiang Meiqi had finally managed to pull some strings and secured a brief visitation. She specifically brought a lot of food and, led by a police officer, hurried toward the detention center.
âMrs. Rong, our regulations allow for only half an hour of visitation time. Please remember not to exceed this limit. Otherwise, it will be difficult for you to request another visit in the future, understood?â
âŚ
On the way, the leading officer reminded her in a matter-of-fact manner.
Jiang Meiqiâs well-maintained face flushed with embarrassment, but she endured it without showing her feelings, clutching the food box in her hand and biting her lip, âI know.â
The officer led her to the room designated for visitation, stopped, and unlocked the door with a key. âThe person youâre here to see is inside. Mind the time, go on in.â
Jiang Meiqi, not able to wait a moment longer, stepped inside and immediately saw Rong Weiwei in detention center clothes, looking haggard and sitting there with a pair of handcuffs on her wrists.
âWeiwei!â
Rong Weiwei listlessly lifted her head and when she saw Jiang Meiqi, her eyes flickered, but her gaze was as stagnant as dead water, without a ripple. Her once tender and beautiful face was now parched and sunkenâshe resembled a deeply aged person, worn and decrepit, nothing like the radiant figure she had once been.

Seeing her in this state, Jiang Meiqiâs heart shattered, and she could no longer contain her emotions. She rushed forward in great strides, grabbed Rong Weiweiâs hands, and her tears fell immediately, âWeiwei, how did you end up like this? Why didnât you take care of yourself? Did they mistreat you?â
Jiang Meiqiâs tears wouldnât stop as she felt a mix of heartbreak, discomfort, and anger, âThese police must have been directed by that bastard child!â
Why hadnât she strangled that cheap person Rong Yan to death back then? If she had been dealt with earlier, Wei wouldnât have ended up like this!
Jiang Meiqiâs regret was profound, but even that couldnât compare to the heartache she felt now when she saw Rong Weiweiâs haggard appearance. She couldnât stop crying, clenching the shoulders of the seemingly soulless person and said through gritted teeth, âWeiwei, donât worry. Iâll find a way to get you out of here. I wonât let you stay in this place!â
These words finally elicited a response from the despondent person. Rong Weiweiâs eyes moved slightly and she looked at Jiang Meiqi with red, gloomy eyes, âWhatâs the situation outside now?â
Perhaps it was due to not speaking for too long, but her usually soft and proud voice now sounded as sharp as a snapped violin string.
Jiang Meiqi was startled for a moment before realizing what Rong Weiwei was asking. Her eyes darted about as she let go, âWei, donât worry about these matters. Iâll take care of things outside. You just need to look after yourself; thatâs whatâs most important right now.â
She placed the food she had brought on the table and opened the food box, changing the subject, âLook, you always loved the dishes from Hibiscus Restaurant, so I specially brought you some dishes personally prepared by their head chef. Try some and eat a little.â
Hibiscus Restaurant was one of the high-end restaurants in Capital City, and its chief was a French chef with a modest reputation in the industry.
