Chapter 48: 047: Changling beats someone, Xie Shang bails out

Xie Shang satisfied his curiosity, “We didn’t talk much, the day before yesterday, thanks to your blessing with the neighbors, okay?”

He drained the cup of wine that had turned red.

The game was a bit dull, so he got up, “You guys play, I’m going out for some air.”

Gu Yihuan tried to follow him without a second word.

Gu Kaiyun stopped him, “Don’t bother him so much.”

He’s the one who’s annoyed?

Gu Yihuan was almost driven mad. It was his brother’s first close encounter with a woman, he had no experience, what if he had been deceived emotionally?

Gu Yihuan paced back and forth in the room, glancing towards the door from time to time, with a casual glance at Guan Sixing’s computer screen, he completely split.

“F*ck, what are you watching?!”

Guan Sixing tilted the computer screen at an angle, ignored Gu Yihuan, and continued watching.

He wasn’t studying physics problems.

Gu Yihuan doubted his eyes, startled, and told Gu Kaiyun, “Brother, this kid has gone bad, watching videos of other people kissing!”

Guan Sixing found Gu Yihuan annoying and took the computer upstairs.

Although Gu Yihuan and Guan Sixing didn’t get along well but—

They were cousins, hey, couldn’t he, as the younger cousin, care? Gu Yihuan followed him, nagging like a housekeeper, “Don’t walk away, tell me clearly, who exactly taught you these bad habits.”

Slam!

The door to the room slammed shut.

Gu Yihuan: “…”

How to describe this feeling? It was just like when he boasted to Xie Shang and Guan Sixing about the mud he had dug up as a child, and they said they were going to kindergarten and wouldn’t play with mud anymore.

Now they were off to play games in the adult world.

Honestly, Gu Yihuan was a bit anxious.

“The day before yesterday, thanks to my blessing?” He reflected carefully.

*****

The night before last, at around eight, Gu Yihuan had called Xie Shang.

“Big Brother,” he hesitated on the phone, “are you free right now?”

“Speak.”

He sounded guilty, “Can you come bail me out at the police station?”

He had gotten into trouble.

He had hit someone at a bar because they had insulted his singing and told him to get lost, and he had smacked their head with the microphone.

After explaining the whole story, he began to play pitiful, play innocent, “It was that fatso who provoked me first, he said my singing was crap. He’s the crap; his whole family is crap.”

Gu Yihuan, with his firecracker personality, quick to ignite and explode, didn’t dare to trouble his family with his problems, so he usually turned to Xie Shang.

“Who started it?”

He grumbled, “Me.”

Xie Shang then asked, “Did they fight back?”

“…No.”

This wasn’t a fight, it was assault.

Xie Shang was silent.

Gu Yihuan weakly called out to his brother, “You’ll come, right?” He was familiar with the process of acting coquettish and weak, “Please come, you’re a lawyer, you wouldn’t stand to see me getting sued, right?”

He couldn’t turn to his family or his mother would kill him.

“I’ll be there in twenty minutes.”

“Big Brother, I love you.”

Xie Shang hung up the phone.

With his support, Gu Yihuan gained confidence and glared fiercely at the fat guy, “My brother, who’s a lawyer, is coming right away.”

The fat guy, already with a bump on his head, stared back defiantly, with a who’s-afraid-of-whom attitude, “So? Your brother gonna lock me up?”

Gu Yihuan was quite cheeky, “Depends on my mood.”

Then the two started cursing at each other.

“Idiot!”

“F*ck—”

The patrol officer passing by knocked with his baton, “Both of you, quiet down.”

Gu Yihuan was as quiet as a chicken.

The fat man was as quiet as a chicken, too.

Each sat on one side, engaging in a battle of stares.

In the next room, Officer Xiao Zhong was dealing with another violent assault case.

The assailant was a girl, dressed in a black raincoat from head to toe, sitting upright with a proper demeanor, calm and gentle in her speech.

She didn’t look like someone who would hit people.

“Name.”

“Wen Changling.”

While taking notes, Xiao Zhong said, “Address.”

“Lotus Pond Street, number five hundred thirty-two.”

“Why did you hit someone?”

She made no secret of it and said she had hit someone due to a personal grudge.

Xiao Zhong checked and found that it was true, the person who had been hit had been released from prison only a few days earlier. It was understandable for the perpetrator to seek out the victim after being released, but the law saw things differently.

Xie Shang drove over, arriving in less than twenty minutes.

Wen Changling and Gu Yihuan were in two adjacent compartments, separated only by a wall, which was half the height of a person, with the top half made of glass. The first person Xie Shang saw was Wen Changling; without looking deliberately, he naturally recognized the back of her head upon entering.

He passed by the compartment where Gu Yihuan was and went to Wen Changling’s side.

“Wen Changling.”

She turned her head.

Xiao Zhong also looked up and asked, “Are you her family member?”

Xie Shang didn’t answer right away but instead crouched down slightly and quietly asked Wen Changling, “What sort of trouble have you gotten into?”

She said, “I hit someone.”

Xie Shang looked her over for any signs of injury and asked, “Are you hurt anywhere?”

“No.”

He stood up and faced Xiao Zhong, “Hello, I am Miss Wen’s lawyer, my last name is Xie.”

Next door, Gu Yihuan saw Xie Shang. With the upper part of the wall being glass, Gu Yihuan, who was sitting down, only saw Xie Shang who was standing, without seeing Wen Changling.

He excitedly called out, “Fourth Brother!”

But Fourth Brother didn’t respond.

It didn’t matter, Fourth Brother must be arranging his release on bail, so he told the fat man, “That’s my Fourth Brother. You know KE, right? The founder is from my Fourth Brother’s family.”

The fat man grunted, “You keep name-dropping, but it makes no difference to me—I didn’t lift a finger.” The unspoken remainder of that thought was: Today, I’ll definitely rip you off!

Wen Changling had hit Zeng Zhili, who was at the hospital getting an injury assessment. Zeng Zhili refused to settle, so Xie Shang made a phone call.

After hanging up the phone, Xie Shang pulled up a chair to sit down, placing it not too far from Wen Changling and asked her, “Have you had dinner yet?”

She shook her head.

Xie Shang glanced towards Officer Xiao Zhong.

Xiao Zhong immediately felt an intangible, unfriendly pressure. This lawyer had such a strong presence. Xiao Zhong said, “It’s not that we didn’t give her food, she just didn’t want to eat.”

Wen Changling chimed in to clarify, “They didn’t refuse to feed me, I just wasn’t hungry.”

Xie Shang shifted his gaze from Xiao Zhong back to Wen Changling. Those same eyes had a different look when he saw different people, “Wait a little longer, it won’t be much, and once it’s over, I’ll take you out to eat.”

Just like at Lileitu, he gave Wen Changling a strong sense of security, as if there was nothing to fear with him around, he could solve anything.

He said it wouldn’t be a long wait, and it truly wasn’t long.

Zeng Zhili agreed to the settlement. The call came first, followed by people who arrived, but they didn’t appear in front of Wen Changling.

She merely signed her name without even looking at the content, fully trusting Xie Shang.

“Do I need to apologize?”

She took off her raincoat and set it aside, still dripping water.

“No need,” Xie Shang covered her legs with his coat, without minding that the sleeves were already dragging on the floor, “I will handle it. Just wait for me here.”

Xie Shang acted on her behalf, and she didn’t see Zeng Zhili again.

About ten minutes later.

Xie Shang returned, “Let’s go.”

As they passed the next compartment, Gu Yihuan immediately stood up to boast to the fat man, “My brother’s here.” He waved, “Fourth Brother!”

Then…

Xie Shang passed by him and walked away.
