"Arrogant, utterly arrogant!"
"Mr. Landvo, if I were you, I’d take action. How can you let him speak about you like that!"
"Mr. Landvo, you can tolerate this? Where is your dignity, your face!"
People around expressed their indignation, egging Landvo on.
Throughout history, regardless of race, this crowd has never shied away from making things more dramatic...
This group of people put Mr. Landvo on the spot,
Landvo was humiliated by Bai Xiaosheng. If he doesn’t fight back, he’s a coward. If he does, not only is his status prominent, but starting a fight before such a high-profile eting is really making trouble for himself!
In contrast, Bai Xiaosheng, labeled a suspect, had nothing to fear; he had nothing to lose.
Landvo realized too late.
Indeed, Landvo thought correctly about inciting hatred against Bai Xiaosheng and making others hostile toward him.
However, Landvo miscalculated, treating Bai Xiaosheng as a desperate weakling, expecting everyone to gang up on him.
What he overlooked was why the wall would collapse, why people would push it down; only when the wall is shaky, or there’s imnse benefit from its fall, do people act.
Regrettably, Bai Xiaosheng possessed none of these traits. This wall of his currently seed very stable; people were only montarily indignant and far from enraged. Provoking Bai Xiaosheng brought no benefit.
Words can be terrifying, but if you’re absolutely strong, you can make them formidable. Bai Xiaosheng didn’t fear others’ gossip because he knew when to render them speechless.
Bai Xiaosheng understood these truths, even better than Landvo did.
A few words, and Bai Xiaosheng made Landvo shoot himself in the foot.
At this mont, Bai Xiaosheng sat with his legs crossed, hands folded on his knee, head tilt-smiling at Landvo, seemingly waiting for him to make a move.
Just this posture, this look, made Landvo want to hit him all the more.
"Landvo, don’t be impulsive! Keep calm, restrain yourself!" Catherine urged on the side.
She feared her husband might lose control and actually make a move.
This is the headquarters of the Twelve Countries Police Alliance, the stronghold of the Southern International Police. Their behind-the-scenes dirt wasn’t fully cleansed—why draw attention here?
Are you crazy?!
Landvo’s face alternated between blue and white.
The staff mber leading the way acted as if everything happening was unrelated to him, neither stopping nor caring about it, glancing elsewhere.
Under Catherine’s frequent gestures, Landvo ultimately endured it.
"Soon, soone who can deal with you will co. We’ll see if you’re still so arrogant then!"
Landvo left behind a half-hearted threat and silently walked forward with his wife.
The staff leading them seed to co alive at this point, guiding them on.
People from the Western world love watching confrontations between hot-blooded n. Seeing Landvo back down, a wave of light hissing ensued.
Many watched with mocking or even contemptuous glances, filled with disappointnt.
The renowned Mr. Landvo turned out to be a coward...
Landvo, naturally, heard the commotion, his cheeks vein-twitching.
Catherine clung tightly to her husband’s arm, urging restraint.
Landvo sat in a corner, not forgetting to murmur fiercely to his wife, "I must see him dead!"
"You will," Catherine assured Landvo expressionlessly, then smiled and glanced at Bai Xiaosheng with a glint in her eyes, "Today!"
...
Shortly after Bai Xiaosheng sat down, more people poured into the hall, quickly doubling the audience.
The joint investigation eting seed about to start.
At this mont, Lin Weiwei felt a shadow blocking her light. She turned her head to see and froze.
The one blocking her light was a person smiling at her.
"Lei Ying!" Lin Weiwei exclaid in disbelief, looking back and forth, then at him, "When did you get here?"
Then, Lin Weiwei exclaid again, "Why are you here?!"
This guy claid he could find evidence to prove Bai Xiaosheng’s innocence, but had been out of touch since, with no news until suddenly appearing now, catching everyone off guard.
Lin Weiwei was thoroughly startled.
"Miss Wei." Lei Ying greeted Wei Xuelian with a smile.
Wei Xuelian returned a smile.
Lei Ying then turned to Lin Weiwei with a grin, "Surprised?"
"Surprised? Where on earth have you been all these days? Do you know how worried we were?" Lin Weiwei snapped, "You need to at least tell us if you’ve found evidence..."
"Speaking of which, did you find the evidence? Can it still be submitted in ti?" Lin Weiwei urgently asked, realizing the crucial point.
"Not so loud," Lei Ying said with a smile, gesturing for silence.
Lin Weiwei was truly infuriated; the more anxious she seed, the more Lei Ying appeared to enjoy teasing her, not caring one bit.
Bai Xiaosheng watched their exchange with a smile.
Wei Xuelian glanced between them, then glanced at Bai Xiaosheng, seemingly unsurprised by Lei Ying’s appearance, with a aningful look in her eyes.
At this mont, there ca a burst of chatter.
It seed soone had entered, and people were very excited.
Bai Xiaosheng and his group had no intention of looking.
Not until soone walked directly to Bai Xiaosheng, gave a cold snort, and mockingly remarked, "Young man, you’re quite the charr!"
Only then did everyone look, seeing a white-haired elder with a buzz cut standing there, draped in a white trench coat.
He was none other than the academy’s legend, Yun Guangzhi!
Seeing Lei Ying, Yun Guangzhi’s eyes sparkled, and he smiled, "Young man, you’ve got quite the skill set. I admire your abilities. Interested in not following him and joining here as an instructor? I guarantee you’ll have a brilliant future!"
Lin Weiwei, realizing who Yun Guangzhi was, stood dumbfounded, glancing at him and then at Lei Ying.
How do these two know each other?
What other things does she still not know!
