A perfectly good wedding ended in chaos amidst a hail of bullets. He Ci looked at the girl in his arms who had been shot, and how innocent she was.
"Pingping, don't talk. Brother Ci will take you to see a doctor."
Yu Ping gripped He Ci's clothes tightly, as if she could hold onto the man in front of her.
Just now, the outcome was decided, and Yu Zhengde and Yu Huan were being prepared to be taken away by He Ci's men.
A-Bao, who was lying on the ground after being shot, suddenly fired at He Ci, but Yu Ping saw this and quickly blocked the bullet.
The shot hit a vital spot, and Yu Ping knew he was probably going to die. He didn't regret taking the bullet for He Ci, just like Su Ning did. He wanted He Ci to know that he could do what Su Ning could do.
"Brother Ci, it's too late. I'm so happy... that I can... marry... you."
"Whether this wedding is real or not, I... have... got what I wanted."
"Brother Ci! You... must... be happy... I will... watch over you from heaven."
After Yu Ping finished speaking, she closed her eyes. Yu Ping's mother, Huo Xiang, cried her heart out. She only had one daughter, and it was supposed to be her happy day of getting married.
Huo Xiang ran into the crowd and slapped Yu Zhengde, who was being held down, a few times.
"It's all your fault, it's all your fault. You are my daughter. If it weren't for you two, my daughter wouldn't have died."
Yu Zhengde was also heartbroken. All he wanted was supreme status and power; he never intended to kill his own daughter.
He Ci picked up the person in his arms and prepared to leave, just then Li Dazhao and Qu Cheng arrived with a group of policemen.
"Don't move, police! You're surrounded! There's been a shooting and a murder here. Everyone needs to go to the police station for questioning."
Yu Zhengde saw hope ignite in Li Dazhao's eyes. It was true that money could make the devil turn the millstone; Li Dazhao was indeed useful at this crucial moment.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Bai Yi also rushed over with his plainclothes brothers.
"Police, we are from the Major Crimes Unit. You are suspected of involvement in the shooting and need to come with us for questioning."
When Li Dazhao saw Bai Yi, he thought of Gao Yaoguang. The two had been fighting for half their lives, and that old guy was impervious to reason.
“Inspector Bai, our anti-vice squad arrived first, so we should take the person in for questioning first.”
Bai Yi laughed, "Sir, the shooting cases in the city seem to fall under our Major Crimes Unit! Your anti-prostitution squad doesn't handle such matters."
Li Dazhao was furious. "Bai Yi, I'm your superior, how can you talk to your boss like that?"
“I said this case falls under our anti-prostitution team, so it belongs to our anti-prostitution team. If you have any objections, you can report it to your superiors.”
Bai Yi now understood why Inspector Gao had given him a warrant when he arrived; he couldn't hand He Ci over to Li Dazhao today, no matter what.
"Excuse me, sir, I have orders from my superiors. We received word that there would be a fight today, and this matter will be handled entirely by our Major Crimes Unit."
Li Dazhao had already given up, but when he saw the paper in Bai Yi's hand, stamped with the police station's seal, he was surprised that Gao Yaoguang, that old fox, had won again.
Yu Zhengde, who had been full of expectations, suddenly deflated. Perhaps his family really had brought this upon themselves. He Zhan's offer was very good. If he had obediently accepted it, he would be He Ci's father-in-law now, and his daughter would not have died.
He Ci handed Yu Ping's body to Qi Yan. He didn't want to put Bai Yi in a difficult position, and he knew that Bai Yi was helping him.
He Ci stretched out his hands and offered them to Bai Yi, saying, "Come on! I will take full responsibility for this."
Bai Yi handcuffed He Ci's outstretched hands. "I'm sorry, A Ci, it's my duty."
He Ci smiled and patted his shoulder, "It's okay, you did a good job. So many people were hurt at once, someone has to bear the consequences."
He Zhan and Zhu Xia were heartbroken to see their son being taken away in handcuffs, and He Jin helped Zhu Xia up to comfort her.
"Mom and Dad, don't worry, my brother is fine. Have you forgotten that he's still here?"
Lu Zhou felt immense pressure as he looked at everyone staring at him.
"Uncle and Aunt, I'll do my best."
And so, He Ci became famous overnight. Whether inside or outside the gang, He Ci's reputation spread far and wide. He had taken down half of the gang with just one team.
All those who supported Yu Zhengde were brought down by him. Qin Huai and Lu Bi were very glad that they listened to Luca, otherwise two of the eight chairmen would have been replaced.
