Ah, so she is from Xi Xi’s Song family. And this notorious young lady is also Old Master Song’s most favored of all people.
Chief w.a.n.g quickly put his hand out and smiled. “Ah, Miss Song. I am w.a.n.g Hua’an from Run Zhou City’s Bureau of Public Safety.”
Song Miaomiao reluctantly stood up and shook his hand. “Nice to meet you,” she said. Then she sat right back down, showing clearly that she wasn’t very keen on greeting him.
w.a.n.g Hua’an was slightly unhappy, but didn’t dare show it. Even if Xi Xi’s Song family wasn’t from a neighboring province of Jiang Dong, they were influential enough that as long as the Song family’s head or Song Miaomiao’s father came, there would definitely be high officials waiting to greet them. Even if it was just Song Miaomiao coming to Run Zhou, if the government knew, then the deputy mayor himself would come to welcome her. If w.a.n.g Hua’an was a high executive in the Bureau or some sort of renowned secretary or lawyer who was part of a standing committee, then perhaps Song Miaomiao would demonstrate some courtesy toward him. However, he was just an official at the department administrative level, which was due to the Bureau of Public Safety’s allocation system. In reality, his position was the deputy chief of a specific department, which really wasn’t on the same level as a person from the Song family.
“Chief w.a.n.g, this is Shi Lei, the good friend I mentioned to you before.”
Shi Lei could not possibly act like Song Miaomiao, who had waited for w.a.n.g Hua’an to greet her. He took the initiative and extended his hand. “Chief w.a.n.g, it’s a pleasure to meet you. I am Shi Lei.”
w.a.n.g Hua’an finally regained a bit of confidence, but didn’t dare waste any time. Although this Shi Lei looked ordinary, if he could have both Wei Qing and Song Miaomiao rushing over to help him, then he couldn’t possibly be ordinary. What was shocking was that he didn’t seem to realize that they had come for him, and thus hadn’t made any requests of them.
After shaking hands with Shi Lei, w.a.n.g Hua’an said, “I was slightly concerned about the case. This Qin Huaiyuan is outrageous and he disregards the law. I have ordered the subbureau to take over this case and investigate it thoroughly. I will have the Bureau step in if anyone dares to try anything. Little Shi, don’t worry. I will do your parents justice!”
“Thank you so much, Chief w.a.n.g,” Shi Lei replied promptly. He gave Wei Qing a nod, as he knew very well that the chief only did this out of respect for him.
Shi Lei sighed as he looked at Song Miaomiao, who did not even see w.a.n.g Hua’an as anywhere near the same level as herself. Both she and Wei Qing were fuerdais who were beyond his reach, but Wei Qing had managed to smooth the situation out peacefully while Song Miaomiao was reckless, just charging straight into a police station.
Shi Lei did not know that if Song Miaomiao had not sent the dark tower to the hospital to get Qin Huaiyuan, her Hummer—which was built like an armored vehicle—would still be blocking the entrance.
“Xiaohua, Yuanchao, what are you guys doing here?” As the Bureau’s executive, it was impossible for w.a.n.g Hua’an not to know the children of the city’s magnates. Although they were not as overbearing as their parents, they did cause some trouble that w.a.n.g Hua’an had to clean up after several times a year.
Hu Xiaohua and Jiang Yuanchao had been unable to speak up until now. They smiled and greeted w.a.n.g Hua’an. Of course, they addressed him as “Uncle w.a.n.g” instead of “Chief w.a.n.g.”
“Uncle w.a.n.g, we are here to turn ourselves in and to file a complaint against this police station,” Hu Xiaohua said.
w.a.n.g Hua’an was shocked. He did hear that Hu Xiaohua and his friends were the first to be at the station, and had guessed that they were here to help Shi Lei. However, he had been unsure as to exactly why.
“Turn yourself in? What for? This is nonsense!” w.a.n.g Hua’an had to be polite toward Wei Qing and Song Miaomiao, but he could still keep these kids in check as their senior.
“Shi Lei is actually a childhood friend whom I grew up with, but we lost contact when both of our families moved away. Yesterday, I heard about what had happened to Uncle Shi and found his name familiar. After asking for the details, I realized that he was actually Shi Lei’s father. How could I control myself when I heard that Qin Huaiyuan—that old dog—dared to bully his family? They are my aunt and my uncle, who held me in their arms when I was small. I just happened to have a few drinks after learning about this and used a bulldozer to demolish Qin Huaiyuan’s house. I only wanted that old fart to have a taste of what it’s like to lose his house. When I became sober the next morning, I regretted it a bit. Then I heard that he had a cerebral hemorrhage, so I was pondering whether I should go to the hospital to pay a visit. I was also going to clear things up with them. If I have to compensate him or take responsibility for it, I will. And then I heard that Shi Lei was accused of being the culprit for the incident last night, and he was even detained here by the police. They even accused him of a.s.saulting police officers. Shi Lei’s lawyer requested to see records and video recordings, but they failed to give any. This is clearly oppression. So I am turning myself in for demolishing Qin Huaiyuan’s house. It has nothing to do with Shi Lei. But we want to file a complaint against the actions of this police station. Uncle w.a.n.g, you can’t keep these rotten apples within the Bureau of Public Safety’s system.”
Everyone was stunned. What Hu Xiaohua had said just now was a little different from what he said a while ago. He still shouldered all the blame and made it sound like the whole situation had been unintentional. However, this time he made it known that Qin Huaiyuan and the police station were actually partners in crime.
w.a.n.g Hua’an felt uncomfortable. He felt that Hu Xiaohua was trying to drive Qin Huaiyuan and the police up the wall!
If it was only Hu Xiaohua and his friends present, there would be some room for discussion, but Wei Qing and Song Miaomiao were also here! w.a.n.g Hua’an looked at them, wanting to know their thoughts. Seeing that they didn’t contradict anything, he knew where they stood.
“This is nonsense! How can you destroy someone’s house? Xiaohua, your family business is real estate development, so hurry up and contact a construction team to restore Qin Huaiyuan’s house! Your limit is a week. Although Qin Huaiyuan’s cerebral hemorrhage has nothing to do with you since the main reason for it is his high blood pressure, your actions are part of the cause. You should therefore also cover part of the medical and recovery expenses. And ask for their understanding in this matter!”
It was all talk and no work. It sounded like everything was Hu Xiaohua’s fault, but everyone in the room knew that anything related to money was no big deal. For a fuerdai who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, any problem that could be solved with money was not a problem. w.a.n.g Hua’an unknowingly included Shi Lei into this group despite him having a humble background. With friends like Hu Xiaohua, money was probably not a problem for him as well.
“As for the police station, I will ask them to provide an explanation, mainly to Shi Lei, of course. Using public a.s.sets for his personal benefit…What sc.u.m!” w.a.n.g Hua’an swung his arm angrily, but everyone knew that it was merely an act.
“Please have a seat. I’ll be right back!” w.a.n.g Hua’an left, his face dark. Qin Huaiyuan, who exactly have you offended? You’re just purely causing trouble for me!
As soon as w.a.n.g Hua’an left the meeting room, Song Miaomiao jumped in excitement and laughed, pointing at Hu Xiaohua. “d.a.m.n, you guys are good! I didn’t think of this. Hahaha, demolishing someone’s house! Shi Lei, your friends aren’t that bad!”
Shi Lei was speechless. Hu Xiaohua and his friends looked at one another, not feeling even the slightest bit delightful for receiving Shui Ye’s recognition.
After all, they were not the actual perpetrators. Everything had been Shi Lei’s own doing.
