Chapter 356
This Sister Qing, she was quite famous in the circles before.
She's Brother Zhao's woman!
And who is Brother Zhao? He was an underground boss in Jiang City who practically had everything under control. His level was way above others. However, Brother Zhao recently had a stroke of bad luck. A case from over a decade ago was brought up, and he got arrested.
An era of a big boss came to an end just like that, implicating many others who all got caught.
Sister Qing, however, remained clean and got off without any trouble. Instead, she took over Brother Zhao's assets and subordinates. She left behind those dirty dealings and only engaged in legitimate business, amassing billions and becoming a socialite overnight.
"Sister Qing, it's me, Xiaoxu! Xu Haifeng, we met before when Brother Zhao was around. Ugh, my bad, why am I bringing up Brother Zhao... I'm trying to ask Sister Qing about someone; he's quite young, not even twenty, but really skilled and bold... looks like..."
Xu Haifeng smiled ingratiatingly and described the guy on the other side again.
"Him! Why are you asking about him? Did you mess with him?"
"Sister Qing, do you know him?"
Xu Haifeng was shocked.
From Sister Qing's tone, she recognized him, and he seemed to have quite a reputation.
"Of course, I know him, what about it?"
"Nothing much, just a little misunderstanding. I just want to know, what's his background?"
Xu Haifeng quickly said, his tone even more cautious now, not daring to admit he had a run-in with the guy.
"Him, he doesn't have much of a background, but I advise you, it's best not to provoke him, or you'll end up in a bad state."
After hearing this, Xu Haifeng was a bit confused.
What does she mean?
No background, meaning no major backing, yet why advise not to provoke him and say the consequences would be severe, isn't Sister Qing being contradictory!
Sister Qing hung up soon after, leaving Xu Haifeng still somewhat puzzled. Thinking it over, he felt Sister Qing meant that this guy was fierce, truly dared to draw blood, just like Anqi had said, daring to mess with a guy who had killed someone.
A real tough guy!
Definitely not someone to mess with!
He put down the phone, took another look at that kid, his heart starting to beat faster. He's a businessman now, and the last thing he wants is to deal with reckless individuals like this.
But, after all, Xu Haifeng has some status. Bowing to a kid like this, if words got out, it'd be such a loss of face! Moreover, this woman is worth five million, he can't just give up on her.
"Brother, I didn't expect you to have some reputation, even Sister Qing has heard of you. How about this, just give half, two hundred fifty thousand, and the contract is off. What do you think?"
After considering, Xu Haifeng suggested.
But his proposal was only met with a snort of laughter.
Xu Haifeng was suddenly furious. This kid was too arrogant. Even after he backed down, the kid still refused to relent.
He felt angry, giving a sinister laugh, "Fine, you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. Don't think just because you have some name in the underworld, you're something special. I'm in the legitimate world now and know quite a few cops. Seems like today I'll just have to send you in to cool off a bit."
Saying this, he dialed another number, calling in a cop he knew, planning to scare the kid a bit.
Seeing him call the cops, Tang Anqi started to panic again, afraid that this bad guy would really get taken away.
"How about we leave, talk about the contract later. I can owe this money for now and pay it back slowly." Tang Anqi grabbed Xia Bei's hand, speaking urgently, full of guilt.
She's no longer scared of this big bad guy, nor does she dislike him. Instead, she's very nervous, terrified that he'd be implicated because of her.
"Leave for what, I want to see who dares to arrest me!"
Xia Bei sneered.
"Oh no! They have their stories straight, the police won't believe us." Tang Anqi couldn't move him, she was so anxious she burst into tears.
But Xia Bei still sat there unmoved.
After twenty minutes, there were footsteps approaching from outside. A middle-aged policeman led a few others into the room, "President Xu, where's the troublemaker you mentioned? Which one is it?"
"Captain Luo, glad you're here, it's him, that kid! He's very aggressive, came in and started hitting people, it's a contract dispute. Look, President Gao has been knocked out, pants pulled down, completely humiliated!"
Xu Haifeng jumped up and loudly accused, "Captain Luo, you have to stand up for us good citizens! Hurry up and arrest this brute!"
After saying this, he raised his eyebrows proudly, looking at Xia Bei.
Serves this kid right for being ungrateful, now he can go sit in jail!
Yet Captain Luo, upon entering, glanced around with a stern expression, looked toward where Xu Haifeng was pointing, and was about to step forward to subdue the troublemaker.
But after just a few steps, upon seeing that face, he froze, as if struck by lightning.
His eyes instantly widened, as if he had seen a ghost.
It seemed like he thought he was seeing things, rubbed his eyes, looked again, shocked to the core, his scalp tingling, he turned and walked straight out without thinking twice.
"Hey! Captain Luo, what are you doing? Where are you going? Arrest him, he assaulted people, arrest him! Aren't you a police officer? Aren't you supposed to arrest people? Why are you running!"
Xu Haifeng hadn't recovered, completely dumbfounded, with no idea what madness Captain Luo was experiencing, clearly a police officer, but acting like a mouse in front of a cat, face pale with fright, turning tail and running away, it was truly like seeing a ghost...
