35: Chapter 35: Two Women Quarrel 35: Chapter 35: Two Women Quarrel “Hehe, uncle.” Seeing Ye Shikai leave the interrogation room, Han Ruoyao hurried forward with her trademark carefree smile. Ye Shikai looked exasperated, as if nothing good ever happened when he met this little demon. However, Luo Shiqi had just mentioned that she was the one who bailed him out, so he truly needed to thank her. Since he learned about Han Ruoyao’s real identity last time, Ye Shikai hasn’t been surprised; after all, she is the daughter of the Chief of Yanjing Police. “Yaoyao, thank you for this time.” Ye Shikai smiled slightly. “It’s nothing. I heard from my dad that there was a gunfight in the mall, and when I checked the surveillance, I couldn’t believe it was you, uncle. I knew you would have some trouble at the police station, so I came right away,” Han Ruoyao said with admiration, her eyes sparkling. “Uncle, you’re so amazing, easily taking down more than a dozen assassins. I thought the footage was edited because you couldn’t even see the figures clearly.” “I used to mix in the military for a few years, just got a bit of skill,” Ye Shikai said dismissively, trying to cover his special identity. “Then, uncle, can you explain why this woman is with you?” Han Ruoyao’s face showed displeasure as she pointed at Luo Shiqi, “She’s mixed up with the underworld. How can you be with her? Don’t tell me your wife is...” “My wife is not her.” Ye Shikai immediately interrupted Han Ruoyao. “There’s nothing between her and me.” He didn’t know how to explain. Would anyone believe that Luo Shiqi fell in love with him at first sight and even dragged him out for dinner? That’s ridiculous. “I don’t believe it. If there’s nothing between you two, why would she come to bail you out?” Han Ruoyao scoffed and turned her head away. “Uncle, this woman is dangerous. You shouldn’t be together with her.” Ordinary people wouldn’t recognize the name Luo Shiqi, after all, how could the Underground Queen of Yanjing possibly mingle with commoners. But for someone from the upper class, the name Luo Shiqi is well-known, and Han Ruoyao’s father, being the Chief of Police, surely knows about Luo Shiqi’s identity. Luo Shiqi slowly walked towards them, smiling at Han Ruoyao, “Little girl, be careful with your words.” “Hmph, this is my man, don’t set your sights on him.” Han Ruoyao clenched Ye Shikai’s arm tightly, as if declaring her territory, “Little girl, just learning about men when you haven’t even grown up yet,” Luo Shiqi scoffed disdainfully. Ye Shikai felt helpless. Han Ruoyao is the daughter of the Police Chief, representing the ‘white’, and Luo Shiqi is the queen of the underworld, representing the ‘black’. When black and white meet, they clash fiercely, even more so over jealousy for a man; thus, the conflict intensifies. Although Han Ruoyao knows about Luo Shiqi’s identity, she can’t arrest her. Firstly, Luo Shiqi is not just a queen of the underworld; she’s also a notable figure in business. Secondly, the police aim for stability, and arresting her would surely disrupt the peace of the underworld. Upon seeing this, Lin Dong hurriedly stepped forward, “Miss Luo, I apologize for the disturbance today, our police will definitely investigate this matter promptly.” It’s not that Lin Dong doesn’t want to eliminate the underworld. Of course, he does, just like every righteous police officer, but ruling over Yanjing’s underworld isn’t an easy feat without substantial power and background. Moreover, Lin Dong knows Luo Shiqi donates a significant amount of money to charity each year, appearing as a benevolent figure to the public. Plus, the higher-ups maintain a balance between underworld and lawful society, never letting one override the other. Since Luo Shiqi maintains this balance, why would they not allow it? “Alright, thank you, Captain Lin.” Turning her head towards Ye Shikai, she flashed a charming smile, “I’ll leave first today, brother. We’ll meet another time.” “Wait a moment.” Ignoring the resentful Han Ruoyao nearby, Ye Shikai quickly grabbed Luo Shiqi’s arm, whispering only loud enough for the two of them to hear, “The assassins today came for you, be careful in the future.” “You do have a conscience, still caring about me. Rest assured, if anyone dares to come again, I’ll make sure they won’t return.” After saying this, Lu Shiqi’s face flashed with viciousness. “There’s another thing, my relationship with my wife, can you help keep it a secret.” Listening to this, Luo Shiqi’s face showed a trace of resentment, and her lips pouted slightly, “Pfft, I’m not that gossipy.” After saying this, she left the police station. After Luo Shiqi left, Ye Shikai sighed deeply, not knowing how much longer he could keep his relationship with Su Qingyu a secret. “Uncle, I have something to tell you.” Suddenly Han Ruoyao came over, mysteriously saying, “My dad wants to meet you.” “What.” Ye Shikai couldn’t help but exclaim loudly, “What does he want to see me for?” “Hehe, after seeing that surveillance video today, I told him you are my boyfriend, then he said... he wants to meet you.” Han Ruoyao said with a giggle, “Don’t be nervous, uncle. Even an ugly daughter-in-law needs to meet her in-laws.” “What in-laws? What are you talking about? Forget it, I can’t handle you anymore.” Ye Shikai shook off Han Ruoyao’s hand, somewhat angrily said, indeed every time he met this little enchantress, there was trouble... Unnoticed, evening had already arrived, Ye Shikai also left the police station. In the distance at a street corner, Luo Shiqi in a Bugatti sports car watched Ye Shikai’s departing figure, her face somewhat lost, muttering, “If only you weren’t Su Qingyu’s man.” Ye Shikai had originally planned to go directly to Lishi District, but thinking of the recent major issues at the company, Su Qingyu must still be working overtime there, so he hailed a taxi and returned to the company. When Ye Shikai returned to the company, he went straight to find Su Qingyu, pressed the elevator, and went straight to the top floor. Zhuang Yan, seeing Ye Shikai, was not surprised and let him in after a brief report. Walking into the office, he saw Su Qingyu looking haggard, sitting in the office chair dealing with documents, which made Ye Shikai feel very heartbroken. He slowly walked behind Su Qingyu and gently massaged her temples, “Wife, how are things going in the company?” “The financial chain is basically broken.” Su Qingyu’s voice was very weak, no matter how strong she was, she was still a woman, and the pressure from work made her look very worn out. Ye Shikai’s face turned solemn, seriously said, “Wife, how much money does the company need?” “At least... five billion,” Su Qingyu was tired, how much she wished her man could help her, but in her eyes, Ye Shikai was just an ordinary person.
