"Huh?" Old Wang froze, then asked in bewilderment, "Senior brother, have you got something wrong? When did I arrest your grandson-in-law?"
"Oh, so you're still denying it? Tell me, weren't you the one who arrested Li Yichen?"
"I..." Something suddenly struck Old Wang. Huh? Wait a minute. Since when did Li Yichen become so sought-after?
He could understand why Elder Mo wanted to recruit him into Bureau 9.
But his eldest senior brother was the current sect leader of Mount Qingcheng, for heaven's sake. How could he be willing to offer up his only beloved granddaughter? Something was wrong. Definitely wrong.
The more Old Wang thought about it, the more suspicious he became. He rubbed his chin. "Could Li Yichen be hiding an even bigger secret?"
At that thought, inspiration struck Old Wang. Whatever's going on, I can't let you lot reap all the benefits. I have to get in on this, no matter what.
Having made up his mind, he hurriedly said, "Senior brother, I think you may have misunderstood." Old Wang explained, "Li Yichen beat up someone from the Jiang Family last night. Bringing him here was also a way of protecting him."
That was only half true. Deaf Brother was indeed a member of the Jiang Family, but he was just a small fry. How could he possibly have drawn the attention of a Bureau 7 big shot like Old Wang?
"So what? He beat them up. Big deal." The voice on the other end softened a little, but remained overbearing. "Warn that Jiang Family or whatever they're called. If they dare touch my grandson-in-law, I'll wipe them out."
"Yes... I wouldn't dream of troubling you over such a trivial matter, senior brother." Old Wang smiled. "Leave it to your junior brother. You can rest easy."
"Mm."
