Top-tier Unruly Master

Chapter 194: The Profligate Lady Xu Rui



The two security guards didn't understand what had just happened when they were abruptly kicked to the ground. However, as soon as they recognized who the assailant was, the guards, about to throw a fit, deflated like punctured balloons.

Xu Rui!

In Dancheng's elite circles, her arrogant and domineering presence was so notorious it could scarcely be overstated.

The Imperial City Hotel was Dancheng's finest, and Xu Rui was a paragon within its wealthy circles. How could she be absent from such a place? Thus, how could the hotel's security guards not recognize the arrogant, unapproachable Xu Rui?

"Scram!" Xu Rui, hands stuffed in her pockets, said to the two guards, her tone icy cold.

The guards had been brought in by Jin Luoshan to handle Ding Fan, but, scolded by Xu Rui like that, they didn't even think to greet Jin Luoshan and walked away without looking back.

Xu Rui was someone they couldn't afford to offend. Her telling them to scram was a mercy they didn't dare to overstay.

At that moment, Jin Luoshan, who had previously strutted around like he owned the place, couldn't help but gulp.

Xu Rui was infamously unreasonable. If she lost her temper, she might even beat him up. Xu Rui's father was the deputy mayor of Dancheng. If Xu Rui really decided to get physical, Jin Luoshan would have no choice but to take it.

Jin Luoshan wouldn't provoke Xu Rui, but that didn't mean she would let him off the hook. She stylishly removed her sunglasses.

"You should know Ding Fan is my friend," she remarked.

Jin Luoshan's face stiffened, and he managed to squeeze out a smile. "Sister Rui, there are some things you don't understand. Ding Fan hit my sister... It's not really a problem that he hit my sister, but today is the Qin family's party, and our Jin family is an important future partner for the Qin family. Naturally, it's something I have to intervene in..."

"Are you in such a hurry to be the Qin family's dog?" Xu Rui said coldly.

In the midst of the party, probably only Xu Rui dared to say such a thing. Ding Fan, watching this wilful woman, found himself beginning to like Xu Rui's frankness.

Jin Luoshan had not expected Xu Rui to be so blunt. He hesitated, then a smile crept back onto his face. "Sister Rui..."

"Scram!"

Before Jin Luoshan could finish, Xu Rui, already very impatient, interrupted him.

Jin Luoshan's face turned beet red. He was, after all, a scion of one of Dancheng's grand families, a part of the elite circle. Yet here he was, being scolded by Xu Rui in front of everyone as if she were berating a naughty child.

Though Jin Luoshan was annoyed, he dared not show it now, as Xu Rui was not someone he could afford to mess with.

After casting a cold glance at Ding Fan, he turned around and walked away.

"Thanks..." Ding Fan said to Xu Rui, watching Jin Luoshan leave.

However, Xu Rui clearly had no intention of conversing with Ding Fan. With a cool toss of her head, hands still stuck in her pockets, she turned and walked away in style.

Ding Fan was left speechless.

Ever since rescuing Zhou Ruoran from the law firm, Xu Rui had always been cold to him. The Flower Cellar incident was clearly helped by Xu Rui, yet she refused to admit it.

This arrogant yet undeniably charismatic wilful woman.

...

Jin Luoshan returned to Jin Ranran's side, looking crestfallen.

Jin Ranran had just been to the powder room for a touch-up, so she hadn't witnessed Jin Luoshan being chastised by Xu Rui.

"Brother, did you deal with those two idiots for me?"

Grinding his teeth, Jin Luoshan gave a slight shake of his head.

Looking up at Ding Fan, not far away, surrounded by a celestial beauty and later joined by Ruv Ling, and even the wilful Xu Rui made her way there—Ding Fan's charm with women seemed impressively boundless.

"Bro, didn't you say you'd help me get revenge? Those idiots are right there; why haven't you avenged me?" Jin Ranran looked at Jin Luoshan like he was the idiot.

Jin Luoshan's face felt hot with embarrassment. He had boasted grandly about getting revenge for Jin Ranran, but not only had he failed to do so, he was scolded like a grandchild in someone else's house.

"Ranran, don't worry. There are plenty of ways to deal with that idiot... just give me some time," Jin Luoshan said on the side.

Jin Ranran nodded. "Okay!"

While Jin Luoshan and Jin Ranran were plotting against Ding Fan, someone appeared before the siblings.

Seeing the figure, Jin Luoshan's eyes shifted cunningly, and quickly he thought up a plan.

"Captain Zhang..." Jin Luoshan began, moving forward to greet him,

The man called Captain Zhang was taken aback for a moment, looking around uncomfortably as he turned his head towards the voice. Clearly, this Captain Zhang was not accustomed to attending events of the upper-class society.

"No, it should be Director Zhang now," Jin Luoshan said as he reached out for a handshake with a smile.

"Young Master Gin?" Captain Zhang, upon seeing Jin Luoshan, looked surprised, not expecting Jin to greet him proactively.

The Jin Family was a prominent clan in Dancheng, so as the criminal police captain, Zhang knew of Jin Luoshan. However, their acquaintance was limited to just that.

"Just a couple of days ago at the middle school, Captain Zhang took down four bandits in a row. Now Captain Zhang is a hero throughout all of Dancheng!" Jin Luoshan proclaimed, his face beaming with a smile.

This Captain Zhang was indeed the same Officer Zhang who had encountered Ding Fan during the Myanmar Restoration Organization's assassination attempt on Qin Manshu at the school.

Originally just a captain of the criminal police, Zhang's outstanding performance during the school incident had made him a role model within Dancheng's police force and a city hero. He was promoted to oversee the West District as a director.

As a public figure in Dancheng now, he was also invited to the Qin family's thank-you banquet.

Captain Zhang, whose full name is Zhang Mingguang, was, to be strict, an ex-soldier, and he exuded an air of integrity.

Seeing Jin Luoshan compliment him, Zhang Mingguang humbly smiled. "It's part of my job. Young Master Gin, you're giving me too much credit."

Jin Luoshan smiled and continued, "I've heard that Director Zhang is upright and relentless in seeking the truth. Is that true?"

Zhang Mingguang nodded. "I'm a policeman, and it's only natural that I should enforce the law impartially."

Seeing Zhang Mingguang respond like this, a subtle trace of cunning swept across Jin Luoshan's lips.

"Director Zhang, today, as Dancheng's big hero, you'll have to help me out!" Jin Luoshan said, his expression earnest.

It would be a waste for Jin Luoshan not to act in movies, for from his expression, no one could suspect his cunning—just that genuine look in his eyes could conquer the hearts of many.

"Oh? What happened, Young Master Gin?" Zhang Mingguang asked, looking puzzled.

"Look, look how someone has beaten up my sister," Jin Luoshan said, leading Zhang Mingguang to Jin Ranran and pointing to her face.

Zhang Mingguang looked at Jin Ranran, who was quite a sorry sight.

At the moment, Jin Ranran's face was still swollen—it looked just like a pig's head.

"Director Zhang, you must seek revenge for me and catch the bad guy who hit me," Jin Ranran pleaded, her acting not at all inferior to her brother Jin Luoshan—she looked as if she was about to burst into tears at any moment.

With a fuss, the brother and sister Jin Ranran and Jin Luoshan had managed to attract a crowd. Jin Luoshan's voice was notably louder now, addressing both Zhang Mingguang and the onlookers.

"Director Zhang, you're our hero in Dancheng. Now that we've been bullied, we're looking to you to take charge and vent our anger..."

Zhang Mingguang pondered for a moment and then nodded. "Fine, I will investigate. If it turns out that the other party is truly being unreasonable, I definitely won't let them off."

Now Jin Luoshan had elevated him to the status of Dancheng's hero, and with so many people watching, it wouldn't look good if he did nothing.

"Ranran, follow Director Zhang and confront that boy. With Director Zhang here, are you still afraid that the kid will continue to bully you?" Jin Luoshan said from the side.

Jin Luoshan had indeed made a shrewd calculation. With Xu Rui and Ruv Ling covering for Ding Fan, sending Jin Ranran would spare him from Xu Rui's lectures.

Little did Jin Ranran realize that her own brother was scheming against her behind her back.

Presently, Jin Ranran proceeded to Ding Fan's side for the second time, accompanied by Director Zhang and behaving arrogantly.

"Director Zhang, it's this kid who bullied me!" Jin Ranran pointed at Ding Fan and said, "Kid, weren't you acting tough just a moment ago? I'd like to see how tough you can be now that Director Zhang is here. I dare you to keep up your act."

Ding Fan frowned deeply. Seeing Jin Ranran's arrogant demeanor, he knew he had been too lenient before, allowing her to become this brazen.

"Director Zhang, get this idiot arrested!" Jin Ranran demanded of Director Zhang.

However, what happened next wasn't what Jin Ranran had anticipated; Director Zhang didn't simply arrest Ding Fan.

On the contrary, when Director Zhang caught sight of Ding Fan, his eyes widened with surprise.

"Senior... You're here?!"

Fuck! Damn it!

Jin Ranran had been hoping that Director Zhang would take action against Ding Fan, but as soon as the director spoke, he referred to him as a senior.

What's going on here?!
