Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 287: Chapter 284 Both Are Not to be Trifled With

Liu Ming was utterly bewildered. He slowly turned his head and revealed a grimace even uglier than crying towards Li Wei, who was acting nonchalant.

Although Li Wei hadn’t heard the words Fu Yuanshan spoke on the phone, he had guessed about seventy to eighty percent of the situation from Liu Ming’s one-sided conversation just now. Yet at that moment, he pretended to be clueless and asked, ”Squad Leader Liu, what’s wrong?”

Liu Ming shook his head, his feet heavy as if filled with lead, he shuffled step by step towards the interrogation room. Entering the room, he didn’t even sit down; he just looked at Gu Xu, who was idly fiddling with the handcuffs, and asked in a dry voice, ”Uh, sir, may I ask your surname?”

When that young officer had gone to fetch Liu Ming to answer the phone call from Fu Yuanshan, Gu Xu had heard it too. Although he wasn’t clear about what the other party had said, Gu Xu had an idea in his mind and knew that this person was very likely someone his sister-in-law had sent.

So, hearing Liu Ming’s question, he smiled nonchalantly and replied, ”My surname is Gu.”

The last sliver of hope in Liu Ming’s heart was ruthlessly shattered by Gu Xu. He had told these people to keep their eyes peeled and to be sensible, and now he felt as though he was in complete darkness.

The one who was truly blind was none other than himself!

He had originally thought that as long as he had his uncle-in-law’s support, he could do whatever he wanted in Luwan District. But then he carelessly caught someone who even his uncle-in-law wouldn’t dare to provoke.

Liu Ming didn’t dare to conceal the truth, and as soon as Director Fu’s call had ended, he redialed and explained the situation at their police station with Gu Xu. Immediately, Fu Yuanshan’s furious roar came through the phone.

”You idiot!”

...

Su Qingqing had just hung up the phone with Huo Sining and walked into the room when she started feeling her eyebrows twitch as if the sound of the police sirens from Huo Sining’s side of the call had been somewhat strange.

She had only been watching TV for a short while when the doorbell rang.

Su Qingqing went over to answer the door, only to see a young woman standing anxiously at the doorstep. The woman looked surprised to see Su Qingqing opening the door, then immediately asked in a rush, ”Senior Su, has Huo Sining come back yet?”

Su Qingqing found this odd but soon understood that Huo Sining had gone out to eat with her, and then something had happened.

Upon hearing from Luo Jinzhi that Huo Sining seemed to have been taken away by the police, Su Qingqing couldn’t bother to ask for more details. She called her mother, her eyes brimming with irresistible fury.

When Huang Hongying heard that Huo Sining had gotten into trouble, she was startled and anxiously called her husband to find out what happened.

With her mother’s affirmative response, Su Qingqing then had the mood to ask Luo Jinzhi for specific details. After Luo Jinzhi recounted the evening’s events, Su Qingqing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

”You’re saying that someone helped Ningning out of the situation? Do you know who that person was?”

Luo Jinzhi shook her head: ”I don’t know him. There was also an old granny and a child with that man; they seemed to be together. But it looked like Huo Sining knew the man.”

After carefully inquiring about the man’s appearance and characteristics, Su Qingqing thought of someone. She let out a sigh of relief and smiled, saying:

”It’s okay, I think I know who this person is. When you said something had happened, you scared the heck out of me. I didn’t expect there to be someone else involved. With Gu Xu there, Ningning is definitely not in danger. We don’t need to intervene at all, on the contrary, the one who arrested them has really bad luck now.”

Luo Jinzhi couldn’t help but be confused after hearing this, ”Why?”

Su Qingqing laughed and said, ”Because they didn’t check the almanac before they left home. Let’s wait a little longer. I reckon it won’t be long before those people will have to obediently send them back.”

As soon as Fu Yuanshan hung up the phone, he was getting ready to head to Luwan District, but before he could even step out the door, he received a call from another person.

Seeing the call from Secretary Su, Fu Yuanshan was initially quite pleased, but the following words from Su Zhenhua scared him witless. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his hand holding the phone trembled uncontrollably, nearly slipping and falling to the ground.

”Secretary Su, are you saying that your niece was taken away by the police while dining at S University Snack Street?”

”It’s not my niece, it’s the niece of my wife’s maternal family. If you’re free on your side, please help release her as soon as possible. My wife’s family is very protective, as you know. If the release is not quick, I can’t guarantee that the Huang Family won’t make a bigger fuss.”

Su Zhenhua’s words were quite mild, but they still caused Fu Yuanshan to involuntarily shiver.

He had met Huang Hongying and knew of the Huang Family in the Imperial Capital. Both old men in the Huang Family came from ruffian military backgrounds and acted without any restraint. Su Zhenhua wasn’t threatening him; he was stating the facts.

Fu Yuanshan felt utterly terrible. Although Su Zhenhua spoke vaguely, Fu Yuanshan had picked up on the issue from the keyword ”S University Snack Street.”

The snack street falls under the jurisdiction of Luwan District, and Secretary Su’s niece was taken away by the police... Who else, if not the Luwan District Police Station, could be responsible?!

At that moment, Fu Yuanshan had the urge to kill those bastards in the Luwan District; had they all got crap for brains? They screwed up twice in one day, attracting trouble from a Gu surname, and now they’re poking their noses into the business of a city committee secretary’s niece! Honestly, are they all tired of living!?

Dealing with two messes, Fu Yuanshan dared not delay any longer. He drove frantically towards the Luwan District Police Station while simultaneously calling Li Wei, who was on vacation from his post as the head of the police station.

What a joke, the fire is already at his eyebrows, and he dares to take a vacation? Take a break, my ass!

He Haidong was getting intimate with a woman he had just hooked up with in a hotel, and he was somewhat displeased when Fu Yuanshan interrupted his fun. But after being scolded by Fu Yuanshan for a few sentences, his face instantly turned gloomy. He put on his clothes in a hurry and rushed to the police station without giving a second glance to the seductive woman in the bed.

Is the situation really that bad? Of course, it is!

Though He Haidong was on vacation, in fact, Liu Ming used to call him for approval before proceeding with anything.

Just over an hour ago, when He Haidong learned that Liu Ming was beaten during a police call, he was all for justice, saying they must deal with it fairly and not allow his police colleagues to be wronged.

But now that he found out that among the people Liu Ming had arrested, one was a person whom the military, political, and police circles in the Imperial Capital all called to protect, and another was the secretary’s niece, he was dumbstruck.

Only then did he realize... that damn Liu Ming had played him!
