Chapter 40: The Words of Lung Hsiang

  Insufficient balance

  Dong Biao felt a chill run down his spine, and his intuition told him that Liang Hua's words were not just empty threats. After witnessing the broken-open-mountain knife being kicked into two pieces, Dong Biao was very clear that Liang Hua not only had the qualifications to say such things but also had the equivalent strength to back up his words.

  "Go!"

  Subconsciously, Dong Biao took a few steps back. He first shouted at the two thugs holding down Yang Kai, then turned around and rushed into the crowd, seemingly planning to take advantage of the chaos to escape. After all, Liang Hao's domineering image was too straightforward, and Dong Biao didn't dare guarantee that he could continue to stay here, whether the misfortune that followed would make him lie in the hospital with his brother for company. He kept telling himself, as long as there is a green mountain, you won't worry about firewood.

  "After hitting someone, can you just walk away like nothing happened?"

  Just as he was about to escape, the onlookers even made way for him, but suddenly a unexpected person appeared in front of him on the wide road. Taking a closer look, Dong Biao almost cried out loud, because this unexpected person was none other than the wealthy and powerful Jiangling City's God of Wealth.

  For a moment, Dong Biao was both shocked and fearful. The shock came from not expecting the God of Wealth to appear here and block his way. The fear was that based on the current situation, the God of Wealth had clearly shown his stance. Thinking about this possibility, Dong Biao wanted to cry but had no tears. Going against the God of Wealth in Jiangling City wasn't a clear path to seeking death?

  Do you still want to go?

  Just as Dong Biao was standing there in a daze, a loud shout came from afar, instantly attracting the attention of the onlookers. It turned out that Wang Bingyang, who had been lurking outside the wine tower, suddenly rushed out and gave Dong Biao a bear hug, instantly knocking him to the ground. Then, with a skilled move, he pulled out his belt from his waist and tied up both of Dong Biao's arms in no time.

  As for the two thugs who were originally holding down Yang Kai, they were naturally easily dealt with by Liang Hao. On the other hand, Liang Tao was calm and composed, looking like a bystander. But Ye Jun knew that if it weren't for the knife wound on Liang Tao's thigh that hadn't healed yet, he would have been the first to rush to the front line, showcasing his agility and skills from his days as a SWAT officer.

  "God of Wealth, why?" Dong Biao looked at Hu Youcai with a pitiful expression, puzzled.

  Following his train of thought, the God of Wealth was also in this line of work. Although their identities were worlds apart, there were rules to be followed in every profession. Dong Biao was perplexed as to why the God of Wealth wanted to deal with him in such a way.

  Hu Youcai pinched out the cigarette in his hand and lowered his voice, saying: "After your brother is discharged from the hospital, I will definitely break his other leg. As for those two bastards, I've already had someone package them up and throw them into the river to feed the fish, heh heh, this is the answer I told you."

  "God of Wealth, you can't do this!"

  Dong Biao was extremely agitated, and as soon as he heard that the God of Wealth wanted to break his younger brother's other leg, Dong Biao became anxious. He knew the God of Wealth's character of keeping his promises, so he pleaded: "Why is this? My eldest brother has always been filial to you, please spare us this time for my eldest brother's sake."

  "Don't blame me, if you want to blame someone, blame yourselves for breaking the rules. The student you're trying to deal with is right there, and besides, I've always treated him like a younger brother."

  The God of Wealth pointed at Ye Jun and then suddenly changed the subject, saying coldly: "After you go in, I'll have someone take care of you. Don't worry, I won't take your life."

  Dong Bian heard this and immediately fell into boundless fear. If he had known that the student he was supposed to deal with was so close to Caishen, he wouldn't have dared to wield his sword, let alone try to curry favor.

  "Get out of the way!"

  Suddenly, a burst of noise from the intercom came, and two police cars stopped by the side of the road. The first to get out was Bai Bing, who had squeezed through the crowded crowd and caught sight of Ye Jun chatting with Huang Boquan and Yang Kai, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Huh? How come every time something happens, I see you, you're really a busy person!"

  Bai Bing rolled her eyes at Ye Jun, who had been involved in a series of big and small cases over the past three days. In fact, Bai Bing still had a good impression of Ye Jun in her heart. However, thinking about how Ye Jun had left without saying goodbye at Qingyan Villa yesterday, she suddenly felt dissatisfied: "Your superiors are going to praise you, but even if you're just picking up gold and not taking it for yourself, you should have left your name behind! Not to mention that this time you helped the police crack a shocking case, and even the military sent people to the police station to request your relevant information. Who would have thought that when the military found out that our police station didn't even know what your name was, they immediately made several phone calls, all the way up to the provincial public security department? The bureau chief got scolded by the provincial leaders, and then he took out his frustrations on us small police officers."

  Ye Jun didn't expect Bai Bing to come, let alone start pouring out her troubles as soon as she arrived. Not only was he stunned, but Huang Boquan and Yang Kai also looked at him with a mixture of shock and admiration. They thought to themselves that Ye Dage really was someone who could get along with anyone, not just the financial world's big shots like Caishen, but even the police were so friendly and affectionate towards him, especially since she was a beautiful woman.

  "Officer Bai, yesterday was indeed an emergency, and I had no choice either." Ye Jun scratched his head and dryly laughed.

  "I knew you'd say that. Fortunately, you helped the police crack this big case, so even though the director scolded you, we also received praise from the province. But let's make one thing clear, you can't keep running away. Later, follow me back to the police station and record a statement."

  Bai Bing continued to give Ye Jun a white eye that made the men around her swallow hard, before smiling slyly like a fox. However, this remark startled Ye Jun, who looked pitiful and said: "Officer Bai, I haven't broken any laws, why do you need to take my statement? Besides, I've done some good deeds too, you can't just sell me out to please your superiors, can you?"

  "Are you going or not?"

  Bai Bing suddenly revealed a furious expression, and Ye Jun involuntarily shivered. This was the true image of Bai Bing in his impression, but he had been deceived by her gentle appearance from the very beginning. Only now did he realize that the Bai Bing in front of him was a living, breathing tigress.

  "Go! Of course, I have to go! If because of my selfish thoughts, Officer Bai is reprimanded by his superiors and gets into trouble, it will weigh on my conscience." Ye Jun said solemnly.

  "This is about right. What exactly happened here? We just received the alarm and rushed to the scene, it seems like it's related to you, speak up."

  Bai Bing gave Ye Jun a white eye again, gradually recovering to the previous kind face, but Ye Jun was very clear that this hypocritical mask was what Bai Bing wanted to tear off several times.

  "These people ganged up to bully my classmate and even claimed they would kill someone in broad daylight in front of everyone!"

  Glancing at Dong Rui, who was paralyzed on the ground and convulsing all over, Ye Jun coldly said: "Originally we were having dinner with Chairman Han and Mayor Han, but unexpectedly this group of thugs ruined our mood."

  Ye Jun was naturally adding fuel to the fire with his nonsense, but Bai Bing apparently took it seriously. As soon as he heard that Han Qian Sheng and Han Kuang Qing both knew about this matter, he immediately pulled out a walkie-talkie and said: "Team 4, Bai Bing, respond... Yes, we are currently at the scene of the crime. According to eyewitnesses, the suspect we have in custody is suspected to be one of the most wanted criminals in the province. We hope to ask for instructions from our superiors on how to handle this."

  Huang Bo and Yang Kai were stunned, facing Bai Bing head-on, with Ye Jun less than a fist away, also stunned. Ye Jun thought he was already able to intimidate people, but didn't expect that Bai Bing's ability to add fuel to the fire would be even more impressive. However, Ye Jun naturally wouldn't ruin Bai Bing's show, after all, the more miserable Dong Biao became, the happier he would be.

  Of course, in order to gather enough evidence, Bai Bing even brought out a set of psychological tactics, and it was indeed the case that some onlookers were stunned, adding to Dong Biao's previous image in their minds being too brutal, suddenly also actively cooperating with Bai Bing's gentle persuasion, which opened Ye Jun's eyes.

  Bai Bing is this kind of person, Ye Jun is the most clear about it. Once Bai Bing gets the opportunity to continuously rise, he will not be careless at all. For someone like Bai Bing, Ye Jun does not think that he is diligent and responsible, on the contrary, there are many speculative elements, and he belongs to the category of using any means necessary to achieve his goals.

  If it weren't for her composure and skill, Bai Bing, who was under 30 in his impression, would not have become the head of the provincial hall's major case group.

  In the past, it was because of his dislike for Bai Bing's style that they parted ways. However, now Bai Bing has clearly made significant progress in terms of his demeanor and abilities, far surpassing his previous impression. Currently, he still appears a bit immature, but with his persistent efforts to improve, it can be expected that within a few years, he will fully live up to the image of his past self.

  However, this was clearly not what Ye Junxi was delighted to see. A thought quietly arose in his heart, which was to thoroughly transform Bai Bing and guide her into becoming his person. This included not only the woman who warmed his bed but also a trustworthy confidant.

  "I am innocent!"

  These were Dong Biao's last words before he was dragged into a police car.

  The ambulance arrived soon, taking away Dong Rui who had already fainted from shock. Huang Boquan and Yang Kai, who were worried about Dong Rui's safety, also got on the ambulance. Before leaving, they said goodbye to Ye Jun. Of course, Ye Jun gave his phone number to Huang Boquan and told him to call if he encountered any problems that couldn't be solved. At the same time, he took 10 hundred-yuan bills from Cai Shen's wallet. In this world, everything costs money, especially in places like hospitals where you need money to save lives; without it, you might as well send someone to the crematorium.

  After this, Ye Jun also understood Huang Bo's character. Although he had no ability and no taste, at least this brotherly righteousness of stabbing each other in the back earned Ye Jun's respect.

  Because he promised Bai Bing to go to the police station to make a statement, he could only bid farewell to Caishen. It was Liang Hao who, after sobering up, kept pestering Ye Jun, saying that in the future he would follow Ye Jun and die for him if necessary. Liang Tao couldn't persuade or drag him away, so he just let it be.

  As for Liang Hao's skills, Ye Jun had also seen them before. In fact, from the moment he showed off his lotus leg, Ye Jun had an idea.

  As for Liang Hao's coordination of various body parts, it is indeed extremely impressive. If he hadn't undergone systematic transformation in his past life and possessed unimaginable experiences, Ye Jun would also be amazed by Liang Hao's physical coordination! However, with a higher perspective, Ye Jun can maintain sufficient rationality on similar issues, so he analyzes that if he can provide some guidance on Liang Hao's weaknesses, perhaps he can cultivate a top-notch killer wandering in the dark!

  Ye Jun's unwavering contemplation left Liang Hao both shocked and anxious, who said: "Xiao Jun, in the past I've been mediocre and unambitious. Through this matter, I realized that I can no longer be complacent like before, nor do I want to cause my loved ones to worry because of me. Actually, this idea has been haunting me for a long time. When I heard from brother that I could get out of prison, in that moment I wasn't excited, nor was I celebrating or joyful; instead, I was awakened. At the time, I secretly vowed that I absolutely cannot again enter this prison as an unjustly imprisoned person, nor can I spend the second half of my life as a prisoner, because what it brings me is not dignity, but shame and also the burden of bringing calamity to my family! So, please let me follow you. Brother told me that you're not an ordinary person, but someone who does great things. I believe that in the future I can prove my own worth."

  "Good!"

  Liang Hao's words had a profound impact on Ye Jun, who nodded sincerely and looked at Bai Bing, who was somewhat surprised by Liang Hao's heartfelt words, and smiled: "Officer Bai, would you mind taking him with you in the car?"

  "No big deal, he's also a party involved, might as well go to the police station together to make a statement." After a brief moment of surprise, Bai Bing smiled and nodded in agreement.
