Chapter 66: Rushing to Give Money

Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Rushing to Give Money ... Yan Xiaobao burst into laughter out of extreme anger, "You bald, fat little fish, didn’t I beat you hard enough last time? How dare you try to snatch a ring from me! Feeling itchy again and want to lie in a hospital bed for a few days, huh?" Liu Jian immediately realized that the guy who sent him to the hospital a few days ago was the young man in front of him. He was instantly furious and swung a punch at Yan Xiaobao, "You little punk, so it was you!" "Smack!" A loud, resounding noise. Liu Jian’s obese body flipped backward like an inflated balloon and rolled all the way out of Chow Tai Fook’s door. "You little punk, how dare you assault a law enforcement officer in public! Are you trying to rebel?" Liu Jian scrambled to his feet, humiliated and enraged, pulling out his phone to make a call while shouting venomously, "I swear I’ll make sure you rot in jail!" "Captain Liu, quite the display of authority, huh?" A cold and commanding voice rang out from behind. Liu Jian turned his head and immediately bent over in submission, "Ch... Chief Zhang, what brings you here... unexpectedly...?" "Naturally, it’s because of your ostentatious display, Captain Liu." The newcomer was Chief Zhang Zhixue, the Chief Constable of Baofeng District’s Patrol Office, who had come specifically to deliver a reward to Yan Xiaobao. As the head of all constables in Baofeng District, his jurisdiction included the Inspection Team directly under him. Liu Jian, as his mere subordinate vice-captain, shrank like a scared kitten upon seeing his superior. "Why are you here so early?" Yan Xiaobao asked Zhang Zhixue with mild annoyance. "You should’ve waited a bit longer—I might’ve been able to really teach him a lesson." "What’s upset Mr. Yan so much?" Zhang Zhixue smiled pleasantly and said, "There’s no need for Mr. Yan to dirty his hands—I’ll help you vent your frustration." Hearing the conversation between Yan Xiaobao and Zhang Zhixue, Liu Jian suddenly felt a chill run through his whole body... as if he’d gone from sweating profusely on a midsummer day to being hit with an ice bucket challenge, utterly frozen to his core... This guy—what kind of background does he have?! Even Chief Zhang treats him with such respect, talking to him as though he’s addressing a superior... It’s over... completely over... This time, he’s well and truly hit a dead end... "We’ll talk about everything else in a moment—hand over the reward first." Yan Xiaobao took the check from Zhang Zhixue and handed it to the shop assistant. "Two million!" The shop assistant exclaimed in surprise before quickly composing herself and saying, "Sir, we can’t directly accept checks here. But the bank is just next door—please wait a moment, I’ll handle everything for you right away." Since Liu Jian had been slapped out of the store, Cao Yan had been frozen in place like a statue. Is Xia Rou’s young man really this strong? Liu Jian’s massive frame, which could practically crush people under its weight, was sent flying with a slap? Is this guy crazy? He even dared to hit the vice-captain of the Inspection Team? Wait... why is Chief Zhang from the Patrol Office here? Huh? Chief Zhang knows Xia Rou’s young man? What?! Chief Zhang personally came to deliver a reward to him—and it’s two million?! This... this is absurd! This can’t be real... Upon hearing "two million," Liu Jian immediately recalled a name: Yan Xiaobao! That’s right—it must be him! He’s the rumored "People’s Hero" who single-handedly subdued the airplane hijackers. He’s the madman who dared to call Cold Ice Divine Constable Han Ruobing "wife." He’s the one who brazenly snatched arrest officer Shi Jianzhong’s gun and got away with it, later wiping out Luo Jianbi’s crew and recruiting Zhao Erhu’s gang as subordinates... I must’ve been completely blind to provoke a living legend like him... This time, I’m truly doomed... Liu Jian’s vision darkened, and he collapsed to the ground unconscious. Just then, three middle-aged men dressed like successful businessmen came running over, gasping for breath. Leading them was none other than the frantic Li Desheng, who brought his assistant and driver to the pedestrian street to search for Yan Xiaobao. Seeing a crowd gathered near Chow Tai Fook, he rushed over immediately. Relieved to spot Yan Xiaobao, Li Desheng finally calmed down slightly. The fact that Yan Xiaobao was upset over a shopping incident wasn’t a major problem—for Li Desheng, anything solvable with money was never truly a problem. "Divine Doctor Yan, I’ve finally found you," Li Desheng said, wiping the sweat from his forehead. In all of Binhai, there really weren’t many people who could make him run around panting and covered in sweat. But Yan Xiaobao wasn’t the least bit grateful. "The card you gave me doesn’t work. Luckily, Chief Zhang already brought me the money to buy the ring. So why are you here now?" "Well..." Li Desheng thought for a moment, plastered on a smile, and said, "Today’s matter made Divine Doctor Yan and Doctor Xia unhappy. It’s mainly my oversight. Here’s what I’ll do: I’ll buy this store and gift it to Divine Doctor Yan as an apology." Though Zhang Zhixue didn’t know what had happened, he immediately recognized Binhai’s mega-tycoon Li Desheng. Witnessing Li Desheng’s deferential attitude, Zhang Zhixue couldn’t help but secretly marvel. Forget his own rank as Chief Constable—even if Li Desheng were dealing with the Lord Prefect, the man overseeing Binhai’s legal and criminal affairs, he wouldn’t lower himself this much. Cao Yan didn’t recognize Li Desheng or know his wealth, but upon hearing his words, "I’ll buy this store and gift it as an apology," she almost fainted from shock. Buying an entire store just to apologize?! The sheer scale of this person’s assets was unimaginable. Even more terrifying—his apology was directed at Xia Rou’s "young man"... This... this is utterly surreal. Who... who on earth is this guy...? Summer Xia knew why Li Desheng treated Yan Xiaobao with so much respect, but even she was stunned. A Chow Tai Fook store in the pedestrian street, including the merchandise and the premises, was worth no less than tens of millions... Yet Li Desheng was offering to buy it outright and gift it to Yan Xiaobao as an apology? Even more absurd to Xia Rou was... Li Desheng hadn’t even done anything wrong! He’d already gifted Yan Xiaobao a Golden Diamond VIP Card that was worth a fortune. That was already extremely generous. It had been Yan Xiaobao who stormed into Chow Tai Fook to buy a ring without having money on him, then turned around and blamed Li Desheng... To Xia Rou, this was entirely Yan Xiaobao throwing a tantrum. Yet Li Desheng was inexplicably willing to shoulder the nonexistent fault... This only proved that, with Xia Rou’s current perspective, she simply couldn’t grasp the value a billionaire placed on his legacy—or the lives of his only child and himself. To everyone present, with Li Desheng showing such sincerity and offering such immense reparations, even the most towering rage should have been completely quelled. But to everyone’s shock, Yan Xiaobao stared at Li Desheng and inexplicably said, "I’ve already bought the ring for Rourou. What would I do with your lousy store?" ...
