Rebirth of the Peak Young Master
Chapter 1396: Full of Hidden Meaning
Jiang Guangrong furrowed his brows; the difficulty with Director Zhao was far greater than he had imagined. He had only met the city police chief twice, but every time Director Zhao spoke, he showed no modesty, and his every word and action exposed a strong sense of threat.
Jiang Guangrong glanced at his phone and shook his head anxiously: "Even if I wanted to go to a place like the city police bureau, you wouldn’t welcome me. I have urgent matters today!"
Director Zhao responded without changing his expression.
Jiang Guangrong gripped the steering wheel tightly, gritting his teeth, and said, "Director Zhao, I truly have urgent matters this time. I promise you, I will turn myself in at the city police bureau after I’ve dealt with these issues. Is that okay?"
Director Zhao shook his head, saying nothing.
Jiang Guangrong slammed the side of the car door, raising his voice: "Zhao Zhong, I’ve told you, Director Zhao respects you because you’re a good official. I said I have urgent matters today. Once I’m finished, I’ll turn myself in at the investigation bureau. I will speak for myself. Don’t deceive others too much!"
Zhao Zhong stubbornly shook his head, his face expressionless: "The state laws and family rules exist at home. If you’ve committed a crime, I must bring you back to the scene. It’s that simple!"
Jiang Guangrong was almost spitting blood because Zhao Zhong was not budging. Jiang released his seatbelt, twisted his body, clenched the car door handle, and glared at Zhao Zhong: "Zhao Zhong, I’m telling you, if I’m late, if anything happens to my eldest daughter, don’t blame me for not warning you. At that time, not only will the entire Revitalization Society be buried with her, but I’ll also bury the innocent people who ended up on the streets and make them pay for what you did today!"
Hearing Jiang Guangrong’s words, the unpopular Zhao Zhong was furious. Zhao Zhong unhesitatingly punched the door outside. Zhao Zhong’s gaze was also frightening: "Jiang Guangrong, I’m telling you, don’t be too arrogant. Are you threatening me? I’m not easily bullied by you, and you’re threatening me? Believe it or not, I’ll call the entire city’s detectives to detain all the Xingwu Gang members overnight! If you dare to harm innocent people, I’ll kill you all!"
Jiang Guangrong and Zhao Zhong glared at each other, their faces flushed, like two tigers baring their teeth and claws, neither willing to yield.
At this moment, a domineering Land Rover suddenly rushed into the scene and came to a screeching halt outside the detective circle.
Zhao Zhong glanced at the Land Rover’s license plate number and then looked at Jiang Guangrong. His forehead furrowed a bit. He couldn’t help but suspect that the Land Rover owner was looking for Jiang Guangrong.
The door of the Land Rover opened, and Sunx Han, wearing sunglasses, got out.
Sunx Han wanted to approach Jiang Guangrong and Zhao Zhong. The nearby police immediately blocked Sunx Han. Sunx Han wasn’t angry and just smiled at Zhao Zhong.
Zhao Zhong was slightly shocked. This was not a coincidence. Sunx Han was coming for Jiang Guangrong. Zhao Zhong hesitated for a moment and waved his hand: "Let her come!"
Sunx Han quickly approached, smiling and greeting Zhao Zhong: "Uncle Zhao is so good!"
Zhao Zhong glanced at Jiang Guangrong in the car, then nodded.
Sunx Han continued, "Uncle Zhao, what’s wrong with my friend?"
"Friend?" Zhao Zhong furrowed his brow again. The word "friend" could mean so many things. Business partners could be called friends. Childhood playmates could also be called friends. Boyfriends could be called friends. In Zhao Zhong’s impression, Sunx Han had always been a good girl. Now Sunx Han is standing up for Jiang Guangrong.
Zhao Zhong pondered for a moment and cautiously replied, "Miss Sunx, your friend has violated many traffic rules, disrupted social order, and threatened the people and detectives. I need to detain him!"
Jiang Guangrong became anxious and heavily slammed the door: "I said I really have urgent matters. After this, I must turn myself in at the city police station. Besides, I said earlier, if anything happens to my grand madam, I said I must wash the Revitalization with blood!"
Sunx Han immediately understood everything. Sunx Han still smiled at Zhao Zhong: "Uncle Zhao, please, let my friend go for now. I assure you that once he handles his matters, he will return to the city police bureau to turn himself in, and the car will be confiscated by you. What do you think?"
Zhao Zhong looked at Sunx Han with dignity. Honestly, Zhao Zhong was still very afraid of Jiang Guangrong’s threats. If innocent people were killed, even if they brought everyone in the Xingwu Gang to justice, they would feel guilty for a lifetime. Now that Sunx Han was helping Jiang Guangrong, it only made Zhao Zhong more curious about Jiang Guangrong’s background.
Seeing Zhao Zhong’s hesitation, Sunx Han reached out, opened Jiang Guangrong’s door, and handed Jiang Guangrong a car key: "Guangrong, you go first; leave this to me!"
Zhao Zhong was surprised. Guangrong? So close? What connection does Jiang Guangrong have with the Sunx Family? Thinking of this, Zhao Zhong sighed: "You can go, and please have Miss Sunx come with us!"
Sunx Han cleverly nodded: "Yes, I’m going to the Mu Family.
Zheng Xueyun was driving a Maserati slowly along the roadside by herself. Unknowingly, she arrived at the telecom building.
At that time, there was no one beside the telecom building, only an old lady standing by the roadside holding a parasol.
When Zheng Xueyun was about to walk towards her, suddenly a man kicked her hard from behind. Caught off guard, and being weak, the old lady was directly kicked to the ground, falling in front of Zheng Xueyun’s car.
Zheng Xueyun slammed on the brakes, opened the car door, ran over, and held the fallen old lady: "Grandma, are you okay? Did you find your family?"
The old lady pointed to the man by the roadside with trembling fingers: "He...he..."
Zheng Xueyun raised her eyebrows, folded her arms, and glared at the man: "Hey, have you got it wrong? You two in such a big place. Why did you knock the old lady to the ground? I’m still indifferent!"
The old lady still pointed at the man: "He, he deliberately kicked me in front of your car..."
Zheng Xueyun was stunned. A woman’s sixth sense told her things were not that simple. As she saw the man’s strange smile, she got a bad feeling. She stood up, turned around, and wanted to return to her car.
When Zheng Xueyun turned around, she saw a dozen men in black behind her. One of them bent his elbow, leaning on the hood of the Maserati. He grinned and asked, "Miss Zheng, where do you want to go?"
Zheng Xueyun looked to the left and right, realizing both sides were groups of men in black. At this moment, Zheng Xueyun understood that this was a well-organized and premeditated operation against her.
Zheng Xueyun smiled as if carelessly asking: "Are you people from the Revitalization Society?"
The man laughed: "Miss Zheng forgot how you killed our companion yesterday? Put them in a sack, tied them with stones, and threw them straight into the river. Miss Zheng is really a femme fatale, ha ha!"
Zheng Xueyun looked at the man with interest, her hands folded across her chest, her mouth slightly raised: "Oh? Do you want to deal with me the same way?"
The man nodded seriously: "Yes, but I think before we hand Miss Zheng over to Heshen, I should have some relation with Miss Zheng. After all, Miss Zheng is beautiful. I’ve heard she’s never had a boyfriend; isn’t it a pity for the lowly monk?"
The man said this while looking directly at Zheng Xueyun.
Zheng Xueyun wasn’t afraid at all. She smiled at the man’s presumptuous eyes: "Hahaha, want to touch me? Wu Feng didn’t dare touch me, so can you? Got a cigarette? Give me a cigarette! When you’re addicted to smoking, it’s hard to talk."
The man didn’t think much of it. In his eyes, Zheng Xueyun was just a lamb to be slaughtered. He directly reached out and handed a cigarette to Zheng Xueyun.
At the moment Zheng Xueyun reached for the cigarette, she directly grabbed the man’s right hand. Then she pivoted on his hand, turning half a circle, directly under the man’s arm. Before the man could react, she seized the man’s arm and threw him to the ground.
