Jiang Sifan nodded, completely believing what Lu Fan said.
Well, it wasn’t that he believed him completely. It was just that at a critical ti like this, he knew Lu Fan’s style—he wouldn’t make things up.
Seeing Jiang Sifan get into the car, Lin Qiang said to a nearby police officer, "He did this to my face! I want to call my parents! I’m going to press charges! I’m going to press charges."
Hearing this, Jiang Sifan shot Lin Qiang a death glare.
The stare made Lin Qiang’s blood run cold, and his bravado faltered.
And just like that, the police car took everyone away.
anwhile, Chen He pulled the car up in front of Lu Fan.
After getting in the car, Lu Fan asked, "Has that little girl been sent ho?"
"She’s ho. She was worried the entire way. Seems our young master’s charm knows no bounds," Chen He chuckled.
"I can see that." Lu Fan was very satisfied with this daughter-in-law. "At the very least, Lao Liu just told that as soon as the girl got herself out of danger, she imdiately sent him and Lao Jiu to rescue Sifan."
He then called Jiali. "Hello, Jiali. What’s the situation with Lin Qiang’s parents’ company?"
"We’ve already poached all their suppliers. We’re just waiting for you to give the order."
"Good. Send a ssage to all their suppliers now. Tell them to terminate their contracts with Lin Qiang’s parents’ company."
"Also, I discovered that a few years ago, to increase their exports of dical supplies, their company secretly smuggled goods through Southeast Asia," Jiali replied.
Hearing this, Lu Fan nodded. "Gather all the evidence and hand it over to the economic cris investigation departnt here in Jinling."
"Understood!"
「Not long after.」
The car arrived at the police station.
Director Luo brought all the troublemakers into the interrogation rooms.
During this ti, Lin Qiang was still demanding, "I want to call my parents! You have no right to stop from calling my parents."
Seeing this, Director Luo said flatly, "Don’t you worry, I’ll be making calls. Every single one of you troublemakers will have your parents called!"
At these words, the handful of young punks who weren’t yet eighteen imdiately panicked.
"We’re screwed, we’re so screwed. If my mom finds out, she’ll break my legs."
"I’m dead at this ti!"
"AGHH! Damn it, who dragged into this fight?! I didn’t even want to co out!"
"It’s all your fault, Qiangzi."
"Your mom."
The group started turning on each other, trading bla.
Jiang Sifan, however, was perfectly calm.
Because if they really had to notify his parents, his biological father was right there beside him.
He felt a wave of relief at the thought.
If Lu Fan hadn’t been here, they would have had to tell Jiang Yixia, who was thousands of miles away.
She would probably be up all night, unable to sleep.
This was better. At least he could tell her after everything was handled.
As Jiang Sifan walked into the interrogation room, Lu Fan told him, "Tell the police everything about your conflict with Lin Qiang. That includes how many people attacked you tonight and how you acted in self-defense."
"Okay."
Jiang Sifan read between the lines.
The subtext was clear. In a nutshell: ’They were the aggressors; I was acting in self-defense.’
While they waited, Lin Qiang’s parents got word and rushed over.
This was the second ti in half a month that they’d co to the Chongyang District police station.
They rushed in anxiously, grabbed the nearest officer, and asked, "What’s happened to our son, Lin Qiang?"
"Please have a seat and wait," the officer instructed.
Mr. Lin had no choice but to lead Mrs. Lin to a seat.
But as soon as he sat down, he noticed several people across from him looking his way.
One of them, a middle-aged man, had an extraordinary air about him—mature and composed.
His sixth sense, honed by years in business, told him this was definitely a major player.
Mr. Lin sighed inwardly. ’Don’t tell our son has provoked another big shot?’
As for why he said "again"...
It was because the last ti, a boy nad Jiang Sifan had beaten up his son. He’d wanted to ask Director Luo to pull so strings, but he had been flatly and righteously refused.
Moreover, the director’s words had hinted that Jiang Sifan ca from a significant background.
And now, he had provoked yet another unknown powerhouse.
Mr. Lin gritted his teeth in anger. "That damn brat does nothing but cause trouble. I swear I’ll beat him half to death when I see him."
Mrs. Lin said anxiously, "He hasn’t even co out yet, how do you know he’s the one causing trouble? What if he was bullied?"
"We’d be lucky if our son isn’t the one doing the bullying. Him being bullied?" Mr. Lin scoffed.
Not long after, Director Luo ca out with Jiang Sifan.
He imdiately reassured Jiang Sifan, "We will investigate this matter thoroughly. Rest assured, they won’t escape justice."
Seeing this, Mr. Lin imdiately went forward and asked, "Director Luo, what’s wrong with my son?"
Director Luo’s face darkened the mont he saw Mr. Lin. "Your son, Lin Qiang, paid to have soone assaulted. He’s being interrogated right now."
When Mr. Lin heard this, his eyes widened. "What? Paid to have soone assaulted? How could he do sothing like that?!"
Mrs. Lin also grew anxious. "That’s right! My son is so well-behaved. How could he possibly pay to have soone assaulted?"
"We’ve already reviewed the surveillance footage and questioned the accomplices. Your son gave them five hundred yuan up front, then offered an additional two thousand on the spot," Director Luo explained.
Mr. Lin imdiately started to panic.
If it were a usual small scuffle, it would probably just be a fine, or at most, administrative detention.
But hiring soone to commit assault... that’s a serious felony! He could go to jail for that!
He quickly said in a low voice, "Director Luo, could there be a misunderstanding?"
"We’ll see if it’s a misunderstanding after our investigation is complete."
Director Luo then led Jiang Sifan over to Lu Fan. "Sifan’s questioning is finished. You can take him ho to rest. If we need anything else, I’ll give you a call."
"Alright. Thank you for your hard work, Director Luo." Lu Fan nodded and prepared to leave with Jiang Sifan.
But before leaving, he looked at Mr. and Mrs. Lin with a cold expression.
That gaze made Mr. Lin’s blood run cold. Even as a jaded man in his forties, he couldn’t help but feel unnerved.
After Lu Fan and Jiang Sifan left, Mr. Lin imdiately went forward and asked, "Why can they leave? What about my son?"
"He’s the victim! He’s the one your son targeted. What do you think?!" Director Luo stressed.
Recalling Lu Fan’s gaze, Mr. Lin asked anxiously, "Director Luo, be straight with . Is there any way to turn this around?"
"None!" Director Luo bit out, before turning and walking into his office.
Mrs. Lin was instantly plunged into despair.
Mr. Lin had an even stronger, sinking suspicion that the boy from before was the sa one Lin Qiang had a grudge against.
And that middle-aged man with the extraordinary aura must be the boy’s father.
’It’s over... We’ve gotten ourselves into deep trouble this ti.’
Before Mr. Lin could compose himself, his phone rang.
It was a call from soone at the company.
"Boss, for so reason, all the suppliers we’ve been working with have suddenly terminated their contracts. They’re refusing to work with us anymore."
"What?! How many?"
"Six of them in total!!"
Hearing this, Mr. Lin was so furious he nearly spat blood!
