"Old Master Lin, what is it?"
Yang Yongxin spoke calmly.
"Dean Yang, could you release Ye Bufan? The Lin Family will reward you generously."
After a brief silence, Old Master Lin got straight to the point.
Yang Yongxin frowned slightly, but his tone remained unchanged.
"Old Master Lin, I have always handled matters fairly and impartially. What do you mean by this?"
"Besides, Ye Bufan is an Ancient Martial Artist, yet he freely attacked and injured ordinary people. If I release him over this, how am I supposed to explain it to my subordinates?"
At this point, Yang Yongxin was clearly displeased.
Lin Family.
Lin Chongwu was about to say something else when the call was already disconnected.
"Yang Yongxin."
Lin Chongwu's face darkened. Before he realized it, he had crushed the armrest of his chair.
This definitely had something to do with the Qin Family.
"Pengwen, send someone to keep an eye on Qin Yan."
"Dad, you're not thinking of making a move against Miss Qin, are you?!"
Lin Pengwen's eyes widened. He felt that his father had gone mad, actually provoking the Qin Family over a Ye Bufan.
Lin Chongwu said nothing more. The Qin Family was untouchable, but the Jiang Family might not be.
Over the past few days, he had also learned about the cooperation between the Qin Family and the Jiang Family. Qin Yan must have stood up for Jiang Cheng because of that.
Since he could not touch Qin Yan, then Jiang Cheng would have to bear the Lin Family's wrath.
Seeing that Lin Chongwu remained silent, Lin Pengwen clenched his fists and turned to leave.
Dad, I'm sorry!
The Lin Family's foundation absolutely could not be destroyed in your hands.
You've gone senile. Leave the Lin Family to me.
Outside the Red Rose Bar.
"Sister Ruoxue, isn't that Jiang Cheng?"
Inside a black van, Tang Meng gently shook Jiang Ruoxue's arm.
Hearing this, Jiang Ruoxue, who had been staring intently at the suspect information on her computer, quickly looked out the window.
She saw Jiang Cheng and his group heading into the bar.
Why was Jiang Cheng here?
Jiang Ruoxue's heart tightened.
In her previous life, she had received word that a drug deal was taking place here and immediately led people over to make the arrest.
But she had not expected the other side to have guns. She had nearly suffered a serious setback.
That was why, in this life, she had set up a Heavenly Net early on, intending to capture them all in one sweep.
Yet she had not expected Jiang Cheng to come here this time.
Those people were vicious criminals. What if something happened to Jiang Cheng? What would she do?
No, she had to stop Jiang Cheng from going inside!
"Sister Ruoxue, what are you doing?"
When Tang Meng saw Jiang Ruoxue trying to get out of the vehicle, she hurriedly stopped her.
"Xiao Meng, Jiang Cheng is going in. I have to stop him quickly."
Jiang Ruoxue's voice was hurried, thick with concern.
"Sister Ruoxue, you're wearing a police uniform. Wouldn't getting out expose us?"
Tang Meng comforted her. "Besides, we have people inside too. Your sweetheart will be fine."
The moment she heard the word sweetheart, Jiang Ruoxue's face immediately turned red, and she began to stammer.
"X-Xiao Meng, what... what nonsense are you talking about?"
Tang Meng stuck out her tongue and grinned mischievously.
"Sister Ruoxue, don't deny it. Who was it that was so worried just now?"
"I... I was only afraid it would affect the operation."
"Oh?"
Tang Meng drew out the sound, clearly unconvinced.
Jiang Ruoxue said nothing. She merely watched Jiang Cheng's retreating figure worriedly, her hands clenched tight.
Meanwhile, Jiang Cheng led A Long and the others into a private room.
"Everyone did very well today. In a little while, A Long will transfer thirty thousand yuan to each of your cards."
"Little Vajra, you get double."
Jiang Cheng patted Little Vajra's shoulder in satisfaction. The more he looked at him, the more pleasing he found him.
This kid was sharp. He might prove very useful in the future!
The eight men were flushed with excitement. Thirty thousand yuan might be pocket change to Jiang Cheng, but to them, it was an unexpected windfall.
"Young Master Jiang is generous!"
Little Vajra spoke first, and the others followed suit.
Jiang Cheng raised a hand, and the private room immediately fell silent.
Then the door was pushed open, and a row of "princesses" in all sorts of styles walked in.
"Everyone, relax and enjoy yourselves tonight."
After saying that, Jiang Cheng turned and left.
Jiang Cheng had no interest in these women, who were goddesses in the eyes of ordinary people.
Compared to Qin Yan and Jiang Ruoxue, they were merely cheap powder and rouge, nowhere near the same level.
He, Jiang Cheng, was a man with principles!
He did not just eat anything.
Jiang Cheng and A Long came to the bar and ordered a glass of brandy.
With Jiang Cheng's looks and attire, he naturally stood out like the brightest star.
Quite a few scantily dressed good girls came over to strike up conversations, but Jiang Cheng politely turned every one of them down.
Just then, a bald man with a thick gold chain around his neck suddenly walked in through the entrance.
"Huh, he looks a little familiar."
Jiang Cheng's gaze drifted over the Bald Man as he constantly searched through his memories.
Wasn't this the drug deal bust?
Jiang Ruoxue had disguised herself and drunk at the bar in order to arrest the drug traffickers. By chance, she ran into Ye Bufan, who had come looking for excitement.
That single glance completely bewitched Ye Bufan. In his heart, he had already treated Jiang Ruoxue as his woman.
He immediately walked over with his signature smile, only to receive a "get lost."
However, with the Protagonist's shamelessness and plot armor, Ye Bufan soon found a chance to show off.
When Jiang Ruoxue encountered danger, Ye Bufan dashed forward, leaped into the air, and delivered a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree spinning kick, instantly subduing the drug trafficker.
In the end, with his shameless pursuit and the added boost of having saved her life, he successfully won over Jiang Ruoxue, the police force's golden flower.
"This is a bit troublesome."
Jiang Cheng's heart sank.
According to the normal plot, this should have been Ye Bufan and Jiang Ruoxue's first meeting, as well as his personal showboat moment.
But now... Ye Bufan apparently could not get out!
If the plot continued unchanged, Jiang Ruoxue's life would be in danger.
Thinking this, Jiang Cheng looked around.
Strange, where was she?
Not seeing Jiang Ruoxue, Jiang Cheng instead let out a sigh of relief.
Of course, it was absolutely not because he was worried about Jiang Ruoxue's safety!
As an outstanding young man developed in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor, he deeply despised gambling and drugs.
Besides, he absolutely would not allow Jiang Ruoxue to get involved in this sort of showing off in front of others and playing hero.
Jiang Cheng reassured himself as if it were only natural, then looked toward the booth in the corner.
Aside from the Bald Man, who was the middleman, the other seven people were the downstream dealers he had recruited.
More than ten minutes later.
A middle-aged man wearing sunglasses and a black overcoat walked in.
He first looked around at the entrance, then headed straight for the corner.
Two young men dressed like bodyguards and wearing British-style bowler hats followed behind him.
"The main player is here."
Jiang Cheng did not look at the middle-aged man. Instead, he stared fixedly at the fair-skinned young man among the two.
"A Long."
"Young Master, what is it?"
Jiang Cheng whispered a few words into A Long's ear, and A Long left the bar with a grave expression.
At the same time.
Jiang Ruoxue also received news from the plainclothes officers inside the bar and immediately replied.
"Approach the target slowly. Be careful."
