"Alright, as long as you can rescue Lin Feng, I can marry you and be your so-called wife. Don't you think that's despicable? Don't you realize that this outcome makes me look down on you even more?" Dong Jie finally expressed her decision, but before Huang Sheng could feel happy about it, she said something that made him, who was already feeling victorious, feel a chill in his heart.
Huang Sheng stood there, thinking for a moment, then a smile reappeared on his face as he laughed heartily, "Haha... Despicable? Looking down on me? When the hell have you ever looked up to me?"
"You really are hopeless. Alright, now you can start rescuing Lin Feng. I'll be waiting for you!" Dong Jie felt helpless about Huang Sheng's thick skin. She spoke to him with a stiff tone, but her determination to save Lin Feng was unwavering, not some desire to be Huang Sheng's wife.
"Hehe... No need to rush! I've already called my lawyer to go to the police station to secure that pretty boy. Right now, I want to spend some time with you and chat," Huang Sheng said. Hearing Dong Jie agree to his request made his heart race. Looking at Dong Jie in front of him, he decided not to hold back any longer. In his view, sooner or later, Dong Jie would be his; he wanted to taste the sweetness first.
With that thought in mind, Huang Sheng quickened his pace towards Dong Jie, his hands reaching out in a caressing manner, which disgusted Dong Jie.
...
Meanwhile, at the entrance of Dong Jie's shop stood a person dressed quite ordinarily. He was tilting his head and pondering why Huang Sheng had come here so late.
If Lin Feng were here, he would definitely recognize this person as Li Zhong, who had slipped away during the chaos. His original method of attack was long-range; he was determined to escape and no one could really stop him. So he successfully fled the scene and found a place to hide.
Later, when the scene returned to calmness, Li Zhong couldn't shake off his worries and returned to Dong Jie's shop entrance, only to coincidentally see Huang Sheng arriving.
Li Zhong wasn't very familiar with Huang Sheng but recognized him because the boss he used to follow, Heizi, was a good drinking buddy of Huang Sheng. Naturally, he knew some of Huang Sheng's shady dealings; overall, this guy wasn't a good person. His appearance at Dong Jie's shop wouldn't bring any good news.
"Oh right! Wasn't Huang Sheng discussing some plan with Heizi recently? He said he needed Heizi's help to deal with a woman. That woman wouldn't be Feng Shao's sister Dong Jie, would she?" Li Zhong slapped his forehead in regret for not thinking of this sooner. If only he had informed Lin Feng earlier; then Lin Feng could have been prepared!
In fact, Li Zhong had just recalled this matter because although he had followed Heizi before out of gratitude and to fulfill his promise, he had adopted an "out of sight, out of mind" attitude towards Heizi's shady dealings. Therefore, he only had a general idea of the conspiracy discussed between Heizi and Huang Sheng without paying much attention. Remembering it now seemed quite normal.
Thinking about how Lin Feng was still at the police station and hadn't come out yet left Li Zhong uncertain about what to do. This matter really couldn't be delayed; based on what he knew about Huang Sheng, this guy must be executing his scheme right now and might have already taken action. If Huang Sheng succeeded in his plans, Lin Feng would surely go crazy upon finding out.
Should I rush in? Not to mention whether Dong Jie is in any trouble or not; even if I did rush in at night like this, would Dong Jie even let me in? What kind of weak woman would allow a strange man to barge in at night?
After thinking for a moment, Li Zhong decided to take a taxi to the police station. Fortunately, there were still a few taxis passing by the entrance of Dong Jie's shop at night. Li Zhong hailed one and headed straight to the police station, constantly praying that nothing had happened to Dong Jie. At the same time, he urged the driver to hurry up.
At this moment, Lin Feng was sitting in the Interrogation Room talking with Su Xue. As for why Lin Feng could have a private conversation with Su Xue, it was mainly thanks to Uncle Hong, and of course, it was also Su Xue's idea.
"The whole situation went down like this: I said it was self-defense, but that female officer just wouldn't believe me!" Lin Feng did not hide the truth of the matter. However, he chose not to mention Li Zhong's appearance; some things didn't need to be stated so clearly.
"Don't let your innocent looks fool me; you can actually fight pretty well! Taking on twenty at once? If I were in their shoes, I'd doubt you too." In front of Lin Feng, Su Xue seemed to shed her usual proud demeanor and instead appeared more like a Little Witch. Lin Feng found this natural since he didn't know much about Su Xue and assumed this was her true personality.
Ouyang Qian, however, felt somewhat surprised. While Lin Feng might not know what Su Xue's personality was like, Ouyang Qian did. She used to think that Su Xue was just less cold and proud in front of her, but now she was astonished to see that Su Xue was also not so cold and proud in front of Lin Feng.
"Being less cold and proud must be because they have a close relationship, like sisters. But why is she like this with Lin Feng?" Ouyang Qian pondered.
But thinking about how Lin Feng was still being held at the police station made Ouyang Qian lose interest in that line of thought. "I should find some time to ask Su Xue about this," she thought, deciding not to dwell on it further.
"Miss Su, stop with the sarcastic remarks!" Lin Feng said to Su Xue. Since Su Xue had arrived at the police station at this time, Lin Feng no longer felt as resistant towards her.
"Well, let me think. You say it's self-defense, but you need someone to vouch for that. Nowadays, evidence is key in investigations," Su Xue pointed out astutely, showing her background as the mayor's daughter.
"Oh, I just remembered! Finding witnesses is tough, but I do have physical evidence." Lin Feng said as he pretended to reach into his jacket pocket and pulled out a Voice Recorder—exactly the one Li Zhong had given him.
Lin Feng put his hand into his jacket pocket to divert attention; from others' perspective, it looked like he took it out from there rather than conjuring it from thin air.
He turned on the Voice Recorder, and a voice began to play:
"You've got some guts, kid! You dare to meddle in Wolf Gang's affairs? Aren't you afraid you'll lose your life over this?"
"What do you want? Let me tell you, I won't allow you to harm a single hair on my sister. Collecting protection fees and causing trouble in broad daylight, is there no law anymore? Don't forget, there are police too!"
The conversation between Wolf Gang Young Master and Lin Feng floated out from the Voice Recorder, capturing Su Xue's attention. Lin Feng was truly impressive; he had the foresight to record evidence at that moment, which was no small feat.
Thinking this way, Su Xue became even more interested in Lin Feng. He single-handedly took on over twenty thugs—what bravery! From the beginning to the end, he considered everything thoroughly—what cleverness! How could such a boy be labeled as "honest"?
Although Ouyang Qian was a teacher, her expertise lay in academic matters within the school; she had no understanding of these issues. Thus, until now, she had only offered a few words of concern while Lin Feng and Su Xue discussed their plans. She merely assisted in their thinking.
There was nothing to be done; everyone has their own area of expertise, and she truly did not understand these matters.
Since Lin Feng could provide evidence, there was no need for further discussion among Su Xue and the others. They directly opened the door to the Interrogation Room, ready to present the evidence to the police, believing they would quickly understand everything.
Lin Feng had actually thought of presenting evidence from the very beginning but was genuinely afraid of encountering a corrupt officer who might destroy it. Now that Su Xue was here, Lin Feng naturally presented the evidence, confident that nothing would happen to it.
"What’s going on?" Hong Sheng asked first.
"Uncle Hong, you have to stand up for Lin Feng. To be honest, Lin Feng is my boyfriend. Look, this is a recording; the Underworld is truly bullying us," Su Xue said to Hong Sheng as she took out Lin Feng's Voice Recorder.
Before anyone could express surprise at the relationship between Lin Feng and Su Xue, she had already played the recording.
As the recording played, everyone’s expressions changed to one of realization, especially He Ting; her expression was quite remarkable. She hadn’t expected that Lin Feng was indeed acting in self-defense—now it seemed she had arrested the wrong person.
However, it was fortunate that everyone else had been apprehended; as long as they released Lin Feng now, everything would be fine. At this moment, she forgot about her earlier agreement with Lin Feng regarding "apologizing personally if they arrested the wrong person."
"It seems I'm not cut out to be a police officer; being a special forces soldier is much more comfortable!" He Ting concluded about herself.
After listening to the recording, Hong Sheng recalled what Su Xue had just said about Lin Feng being her boyfriend. He couldn't help but take another look at Lin Feng, though his expression remained neutral, making it impossible to discern what he was thinking.
“Zhu Bureau, what do you think about this matter...” Hong Sheng turned to Director Zhu for his opinion.
“It’s obvious that this young man was acting in self-defense. That group of social scum needed someone to teach them a lesson; otherwise, they would think they are invincible. Speaking of which, this young brother has even done a good deed. Ha ha... On behalf of the police, I thank you!” Zhu Bureau said decisively as he understood the situation, praising Lin Feng with a formal tone.
“Ha ha... Director Zhu, you flatter me. By the way, Captain He, what do you think?” Lin Feng asked with a smile at He Ting, clearly not having forgotten their earlier agreement!
Sometimes, Lin Feng could be quite petty.
“Ahem... You... alright, I caught the wrong person. It was my mistake; please forgive me. This way, let me escort you out,” He Ting recalled her agreement with Lin Feng upon being questioned. Although she felt frustrated with him, she still apologized out of respect for her military principles.
Lin Feng smiled, satisfied with He Ting's response. He expressed his gratitude once more to those nearby and walked forward with Su Xue, feeling relieved that they were finally leaving this unpleasant place.
Seeing Lin Feng’s smug demeanor, at least He Ting thought he looked quite arrogant. She felt a surge of irritation and thought, “How can a man be so petty? He actually made me apologize. Just wait, Lin Feng, I won’t let this go!”
Lin Feng continued walking and couldn’t help but sneeze, muttering to himself, “No one is cursing me, right?”
As he stepped out of the police station and was about to bid farewell to everyone, he noticed a taxi stopping at the entrance. A person got out of the car and shouted at Lin Feng: “Feng Shao, it’s bad! Your sister might be in trouble!”
The person was none other than Li Zhong, who had rushed over.
