Chapter 107: What a miserable man!

What the heck?

Liu Yanxi's face darkened.

Yeah, I was thinking this woman must be bored, running to people's cars to get beaten for fun.

Hong Bo laughed out loud in front of the camera.

These words not only cleared Li Jiaci and the others of gang-related suspicions, but also gave Liu Yanxi a new lead: that white Chery sedan.

Zhang Chuqiang said, "We can also testify that all this talk of gang activity is pure nonsense!"

The workers on site all nodded in agreement.

With these testimonies, Liu Yanxi could naturally release Li Jiaci and the others.

She told Zhang Chuqiang, "Wait here a moment, I'll go get them out!"

Thanks, Officer!

……

Interrogation room.

Li Jiaci coughed up a mouthful of blood and went limp in the chair.

Liu Yanxi pushed the door open, approached him, and asked, "Can you still stand up?"

"Why not? It's just a bit of effort—come help me up!"

Saying that, Li Jiaci raised both his hands.

Liu Yanxi unlocked his handcuffs, supported his arm, and gently pulled him up.

"You can go now."

"Thanks."

"What are you thanking me for? You got beaten like this, and I share the blame—if I …"

"Officer Liu, no need to say more!"

Li Jiaci waved his hand.

He limped out of the interrogation room.

Soon, Li Yihu and Wang Yingna were also released.

When they saw Li Jiaci beaten like that, they almost overturned the precinct.

Wang Yingna was so anxious she wanted to cry.

"Brother, don't let them off!"

"Especially Lin Niansheng!"

"I'll make him pay with his life!"

Wang Zhen nodded helplessly.

He patted Wang Yingna's head and said in a low voice, "Rest easy—even if Li Jiaci is fine, I won't let him off, since he's hurt you twice; I'll definitely avenge this."

"I don't matter; what matters is Brother Jiaci!"

"Silly little sister, you're the most important to me!"

"No, Brother Jiaci is the one who matters!"

……

Wang Zhen was speechless.

In just a few days, Li Jiaci has become the most important thing in Wang Yingna's heart!

Even his own brother has to take a back seat to Li Jiaci!

Damn it, who can I reason with?

Precinct entrance.

Li Jiaci stood swaying in the cold wind.

Seeing that Li Jiaci's clothes were soaked with blood, Wang Zhen couldn't bear it and took off his own coat to drape over him.

"Thanks, Brother Zhen—I owe you another favor!"

"No need for thanks between us!"

"Good!"

Li Jiaci gave a grim smile.

"Come on, let's get you to the hospital!"

Wang Zhen carefully supported his arm and walked toward the vehicle at the roadside.

Behind them, a dark crowd followed.

Wang Zhen turned back and said, "The person is with me—you can relax!"

Li Yihu quickly smiled and said, "Then we'll leave our big brother in your care—if anything comes up, just say the word, and we brothers will be there right away!"

"Got it, head back!"

Wang Zhen accompanied Li Jiaci into the back seat.

Wang Yingna sat in the passenger seat.

After the vehicle left, the crowd gradually returned to the lumber mill.

……

Two days passed.

Li Jiaci's wounds had all scabbed over.

He sat on the hospital bed, eating an apple peeled by Wang Yingna, while talking on the phone with Hong Bo.

"Brother Hong, my younger brothers are still young—the lumber mill needs you to look after them more!"

On the other end of the phone, Hong Bo laughed heartily: "Boss, what are you talking about? It's only natural for me to handle things with money. Just take care of yourself and recover—those kids are all hoping you'll come back soon!"

I'll be back in two days!

Good, good, good. By the way, I have some good news to tell you!

What is it?

Police Officer Liu, following the clues I gave, tracked down the owner of that Chery sedan—and wouldn't you know it, it's Zheng Degui, that bastard!

Upon hearing this, Li Jiaci wasn't surprised at all.

Instead, he calmly said: "From now on it's Police Officer Liu's business—nothing to do with us!"

Boss, you rest first—I'm going to get busy!

Okay!

He hung up the phone.

Li Jiaci handed the finished apple core to Wang Yingna, then took out a piece of paper to wipe his hands.

Not long ago, in this very ward, Wang Yingna lay on the hospital bed while he bustled about like a servant attending to her.

Now their situations have reversed.

The key is that Wang Yingna doesn't feel anything wrong about it.

Li Jiaci has her do whatever he asks, without any pretentiousness.

Nana, pour me a cup of water!

Got it, I'll go to the water room and fetch you a pot of hot water!

Wang Yingna took the kettle and walked out.

But the person who came back holding the kettle was her brother, Wang Zhen.

Li Jiaci smiled: "Can't even fetch water without losing it?"

No, the nurse just told her to go get medicine, so I helped bring it in!

Wang Zhen said this while pouring Li Jiaci a cup of hot water.

Afterwards, he pulled out a chair, sat down, and told Li Jiaci: "I just got back from the precinct; I have two things to tell you, both are the best news possible for you!"

These past few days, Wang Zhen has been busy dealing with Lin Niansheng's affairs, with no time to return to the Song and Dance Hall to keep watch.

Li Jiaci asked: "Has Lin Niansheng been thrown in jail?"

Wang Zhen shook his head.

No, his background isn't simple!

After continuous pressure, the precinct's leaders finally decided to suspend him and send him home!

He might even be reinstated before long!

Hearing this, Li Jiaci let out a cold snort: "What kind of good news is that?"

Wang Zhen pondered for a moment.

The second matter!

Li Qinglan made the news, causing a city-wide uproar!

Her school has already expelled her!

Now she's like a street rat—everyone who sees her spits!

Word is she has nowhere to go and can only bunk under a bridge with the homeless!

Having said that, Wang Zhen looked at Li Jiaci with eager anticipation.

What just happened doesn't count as good news.

Let's just forget about this!

Li Jiaci also felt Wang Zhen's expectant gaze, so he gave a perfunctory chuckle and said: "Wang Zhen bro, I'm so grateful—you've helped me solve a major problem!"

Eh, we're brothers—no need to say that!

Wang Zhen waved his hand.

He didn't notice Li Jiaci's downturned mouth corners at that moment.

Li Qinglan expelled from school, with nowhere to turn—what will she do?

Of course she'll go find Li Jiaci, that big sucker!

Is this good news?

Damn, this is like a ghost story!

A lingering ghost story!

Wang Zhen added: "Little bro, I know you hate Lin Niansheng to the bone, but we need to wait for the opportunity. I promise you, your enemy is my enemy—I'll definitely help you!"

With those words from Wang Zhen bro, I'd gladly look after your sister for a few more months!

You little brat, you want both, huh?

Hahaha!
