Chapter 69: He's Threatening Me!

~8 min read 1,538 words

Hearing the child stop crying, and seeing Li Xuewu coaxing the child, the few people over there all looked over.

The cadre frowned and was about to reprimand Li Xuewu for coming over himself when the young man pointed at Li Xuewu and clamored, "The child wasn't saved by him, right? Make him responsible. Who told him to be a busybody? That bastard should have..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he was frightened by Li Xuewu's man-eating gaze.

The child in Li Xuewu's arms was frightened by the sudden shout and started crying again.

Swaying the child, he slowly approached the few people. Seeing the child stop crying, he covered the child's head with the corner of the package to prevent the fluorescent light from stimulating the child's eyes.

"If you dare to shout at me again, I'll break your legs and see if your shouting voice is louder or your screaming voice is louder."

The young man was frightened by this scarred-faced man in police uniform. He was cowardly but still shouted at Zhou Ganbu and Bureau Chief Liu, "This police comrade of yours dares to threaten me! Threatening the victim's family, are you not going to manage this?"

Zhou Ganbu, who was angered by the young man, lowered his head and picked his ears, muttering, "I'm old, my ears are buzzing from your shouting just now."

【Author's note: "Rebirth of the Financial Giant"】

Seeing the young man look at him again, Bureau Chief Liu grinned and said, "He is not our person, he is a police officer from the Capital. If you want to report him for threatening you, you have to go to the Capital to find their leaders."

Because the woman who died was truly miserable, the two felt compassion and were very polite to the family. The foreign affairs side was also accustomed to comforting victims, not expecting this politeness and comfort to be taken as an intention of apology and compensation.

Li Xuewu watched the deflated young man being dragged back by his partner and didn't bother with him anymore.

If a dog bites you, you can't bite the dog back. Breaking its legs is enough.

Holding the child, Li Xuewu said to Zhou Ganbu, "Since you don't want this child, then give it to me."

"What did you say?!"

Zhou Ganbu asked in disbelief, and everyone else in the room looked at Li Xuewu with various expressions.

"I said, I will adopt this child."

Li Xuewu said to Zhou Ganbu sternly.

Hearing Li Xuewu's words, that family stopped arguing. The woman looked at Li Xuewu gratefully, her husband glared at Li Xuewu without speaking, and only that young couple whispered something.

Zhou Ganbu sized up Li Xuewu again and asked, "How old are you this year? How are you going to raise this child? This is not a kitten or a puppy, this is a living person."

Li Xuewu changed the direction of his arms holding the child and said to Zhou Ganbu, "Kittens and puppies have people who want them, but the child has no one who wants it. Since you don't want it, following me is better than being pushed around by you."

As he spoke, he took out his work ID and handed it to Zhou Ganbu.

The cadre took the ID, looked at it, and said, "I know your information, and I believe in your character, but your situation?"

Li Xuewu pulled Zhou Ganbu and walked toward the bedroom. Bureau Chief Liu and the foreign affairs personnel from the embassy also followed.

The young clerk at the door sensibly closed the door and stood at the entrance.

After entering the bedroom, Li Xuewu said, "My home address is on that note. I am a cadre in the Security Department of the Rolling Steel Factory. My father is a doctor at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, and my older brother and sister-in-law are both university teachers."

"There are a mother and grandmother at home who can help take care of the child. My older brother, sister-in-law, younger brother, and younger sister, a family of 9, all live together. I believe my conditions are enough to adopt and raise this child."

"Looking at your ID, you are only 19 years old, right? You are not married yet, right? Not considering the future?"

"Yes, but you also know my resume. My character has been tested."

"I know, I know." Zhou Ganbu nodded repeatedly, saying this, but his expression was still a bit hesitant.

Bureau Chief Liu pulled Zhou Ganbu and said, "Security Guard Li's conditions couldn't be more suitable. This case cannot be dragged on any longer."

"I know..." Zhou Ganbu was hesitant. After considering it, he asked Li Xuewu sternly, "Do you know the situation of the child's parents? Are you still determined to adopt?"

"Yes, I have learned some of the situation of his parents from the two people from the railway, but the child is not at fault." Li Xuewu gently swayed the child in his arms and said.

"What do you think?" Zhou Ganbu asked the embassy personnel.

Both of them nodded in agreement and also asked for Li Xuewu's address.

"Alright, I'll go out and talk to that family now." Zhou Ganbu was about to open the door and go out, but was stopped by Li Xuewu.

"I need that family to write a guarantee letter giving up the child's custody. Everyone in their family must sign and press their fingerprints. Also, where is the money I put in the child's package?"

"Is a guarantee letter necessary? Can't I just issue you a case-closing document and a certificate? There are embassy people to testify. Also, your money should be in the hands of that family. I'll go ask for you."

Li Xuewu said sternly, "I want their guarantee letter, and I also want your case-closing document and certificate. Moreover, the embassy must also sign and stamp the certificate."

Zhou Ganbu looked at Li Xuewu, seeing his firm attitude, and fearing he would quit, nodded and walked out.

The embassy personnel said to Li Xuewu, "Although we have no way to handle this child, there will be child support for you."

"No need. If I can adopt him, I can afford to raise him."

Since he decided to adopt, he would definitely follow his surname and his nationality. He didn't need these people to come and pretend to be good people.

The embassy personnel shook their heads and said, "That's what you think, but our work procedure is like this."

Can't refuse even if you want to?

Li Xuewu was noncommittal to the words of the two.

Because Zhou Ganbu didn't close the door when he left the room, Li Xuewu's conversation with the diplomatic personnel was naturally heard outside.

These two diplomatic personnel spoke off-tune Chinese, but they could all be understood.

The young man outside started making trouble again: "I tell you, if there is compensation and child support, it must be given to me. That is my sister's child."

"Why didn't you say it was your sister's child just now?" Zhou Ganbu glared at the clerk at the door and shouted at the young man.

"Just now was just now. We are not signing this agreement. Give the child back to us." The young man said and was about to rush into the inner room.

Bureau Chief Liu in the room was angry and slapped the young man who was about to rush into the room on the face.

"If you dare to make trouble again, I will send you to the detention center to loosen your bones."

The local police were not as polite as the Capital police. Their words and actions carried a fierce edge, otherwise, they wouldn't be able to deter the current local environment.

Not to mention it was at the bureau chief level. Bureau Chief Liu was clearly annoyed by this young man just now and finally found an opportunity.

"Why are you hitting people?" The young man covered his face and said indignantly.

"Hitting you is light. I ask you, where is the money in the package? The attendant and the train captain were both there when Security Guard Li put it in. Take it out."

"I... I thought it was my sister's money."

"Fart, the attendant's testimony says it was explained clearly to you. You still dare to play tricks with me? Take it out."

"Why? That was given by him."

"Given to you?"

"I..."

"Don't need to stammer with me. I tell you, if you don't take it out, you will go with me today."

Seeing this old police officer being serious, the young man covered his face and went to his partner to beg.

That girl took out the money very reluctantly, stuffed it hard into the young man's hand, glared at the young man, twisted her body, and ran out.

The young man wanted to chase but didn't dare, because two police officers came in at the door and blocked it.

The young man handed the money to Bureau Chief Liu and was forced by Zhou Ganbu's gaze to sign, only then did he run out to chase. ===== CHAPTER 70 =====
