Chapter 84: Hero Saves the Beauty

~7 min read 1,347 words

Ah Min, I truly like you. Just agree to be with me!

The police officer surnamed Huang still hasn't given up.

"Mr. Huang, please call me He Min or Miss He. You really aren't my type; please stop bothering me."

Chen Mo took a look—this was indeed a great opportunity to get closer to He Min!

Chen Mo quickly walked through the surrounding students, went to He Min's side, put his hand on her shoulder, and pulled her into his embrace.

At the same time he said, "Sir, before chasing a girl, shouldn't you first find out if she already has a boyfriend?"

He Min was completely embraced by Chen Mo, her body involuntarily turning, she ended up lying in his arms.

He Min startled, immediately raised her hands to push Chen Mo's chest, trying to break free from his embrace.

But her little strength couldn't move Chen Mo; just as she was about to call for help, she heard Chen Mo's voice and then recognized him.

He Min lifted her head to look at Chen Mo, and their eyes met exactly as he lowered his gaze to look at her.

Chen Mo winked at He Min, signaling her not to speak.

Although He Min didn't want to be held like that by Chen Mo, she simply couldn't break free.

Moreover, she knew Chen Mo was helping her, so she stopped struggling.

"Who are you? Quickly let go of Ah Min!"

Seeing his goddess being embraced by a man, the police officer became anxious.

Chen Mo felt He Min in his arms stop struggling, so he loosened his arms, changing from embracing her to holding her hand.

"Of course I'm Ah Min's boyfriend. And who are you?"

He Min left Chen Mo's embrace, but her hand was still held by him and she couldn't pull it away, causing her face to flush involuntarily.

The police officer angrily stared at Chen Mo, then suddenly recalled seeing his file at the station and recognized his identity.

"Are you Chen Mo?"

Chen Mo nodded: "It seems this gentleman knows me; please give me some face and stop bothering Ah Min from now on."

"Hmph, you little pony, what face do you have here? Let me tell you, I'm Senior Inspector Huang Ziyang of the Anti-Triad Unit at Wang Jiao Police Station. You'd better get lost, or I'll arrest you and take you straight to the station!"

After recognizing Chen Mo's identity, Huang Ziyang immediately became emboldened and announced his identity.

"Just a little pony—seeing me, a Senior Inspector of the Anti-Triad Unit, and still not getting far away!"

Chen Mo gave a cold laugh: "Inspector Huang, you need evidence to speak, and arresting someone requires evidence. You're harassing my girlfriend now; I haven't even complained about you yet, and you still want to arrest me?"

"Hmph! Who in Wang Jiao doesn't know you're with Great Prosperity? Once I arrest you and take you to the station, I'll naturally have evidence!"

He's no stranger to arresting people and then torturing them for confessions.

"Inspector Huang, Gangdao is a place that follows the law. I'm a legitimate businessman; you're currently slandering and threatening me. I can fully complain about you, even hire a lawyer to sue you—do you believe it?"

Seeing that Chen Mo wasn't an ordinary triad member and couldn't be scared off by a few words, Huang Ziyang knew that continuing might really get him complained about, so he quickly shifted the topic back to He Min: "Chen Mo, Ah Min could never fall for someone like you; you'd better let go of her hand!"

"Inspector Huang, whether Ah Min likes me or not is none of your business! You just need to know she doesn't like you—now please get lost!"

"Mr. Huang, I'll tell you one last time: I truly don't like you, whether or not I currently have a boyfriend, I will never like you—please stop harassing me!" He Min also spoke up to refuse.

"Otherwise, I'll also go to the police station to file a complaint against you!"

After saying that, He Min pulled Chen Mo through the onlooking students and hurried away.

Only Huang Ziyang remained standing there, stunned, his hand gripping the flower tightly.

As for Chen Mo's arrogance, he merely lost a bit of face.

But He Min's words truly wounded his self-esteem.

The surrounding students saw He Min leave, the excitement died down, and they quickly dispersed, each heading home.

At the school gate, Cao Dahua stood beside a young man—none other than Zhou Xingxing, known as the "Top Killer of the Flying Tigers."

"See? One is the Wang Jiao Great Prosperity boss, the other is the Anti-Triad Unit chief—you've got no chance!"

"Damn! Chen Mo, that bastard! Back then I should have beaten him harder."

Watching Chen Mo and He Min holding hands as they got into the car, Zhou Xingxing couldn't help but curse.

He had finally managed to get close to He Min, hoping to use her tutoring opportunity to pursue her, but he was still a step too late.

After getting in the car, He Min said somewhat embarrassedly, "Mr. Chen, thank you just now!"

"Don't mention it, it was just a small effort. Teacher He, it'd be fine if you don't blame me for being abrupt earlier."

Chen Mo knew it wasn't yet the time to launch a full-scale offensive against He Min.

Earlier he had already taken quite a few advantages from He Min; now he naturally needed to revert to a proper demeanor.

"No, you were also helping me!"

Thinking back to how Chen Mo had just claimed to be her boyfriend and they'd embraced in front of so many people, He Min couldn't help but blush again.

Although she knew Chen Mo already had two girlfriends, seeing a young, talented, handsome guy every day inevitably stirred some springtime feelings.

Especially since Chen Mo is particularly handsome.

After a moment of silence, He Min still couldn't help but ask, "Are you really involved with the triads?"

Huang Ziyang had just exposed Chen Mo's identity earlier; she had of course heard it, but she simply couldn't quite believe it.

She had always thought Chen Mo was a rich second-generation heir or a businessman with some assets.

After all, Chen Mo always dressed in suits, spoke to her politely, which was completely unlike her image of triad members.

Chen Mo smiled: "Teacher He, you just heard that, didn't you? Are you scared?"

"No!" He Min quickly denied, "It's just a bit unexpected."

Generally, Gangdao citizens' feelings toward triads are basically dislike, fear, hatred—in short, they want to stay far away.

Perhaps it's because Chen Mo has always acted too well in front of He Min, or maybe they've known each other for a while; He Min truly doesn't feel afraid of his triad identity, nor does she feel any aversion.

On the contrary, when in Chen Mo's embrace, she even felt a sense of safety.

"Teacher He, what do you think triads should be like?"

He Min thought for a moment, then said: "Those who dress in a sissy way, dye their hair all sorts of colors, usually act arrogant and domineering, and at the drop of a hat want to chop people!"

Chen Mo shook his head: "No, real triads all wear suits and ties."

"What about the ones I mentioned?"

"Those are idiots!"

He Min was stunned.

Actually, what Chen Mo said isn't wrong either.

In the triad society, those who truly have status basically all wear suits and ties and work in offices.

In Great Prosperity, the big bosses, except for Da B and Konglong, basically wear suits when they go out; however, for comfort, they usually wear a size larger, which makes them look a bit mismatched.

Even the foot‑picking fatty Lai, who usually likes to wear slippers, also dresses his upper body in a decent, human‑like way.

Moreover, these triad big bosses basically rarely show up loitering in the market.

Those who loiter on the street are just a bunch of petty thugs.
