From the conversation between Yuan Yuan and Director Liu, Chen Chongshan had roughly figured out the truth of the matter. The reason why Director Qin stepped in to bail him out was not because of Xu Jiaming and the others, but because of Yuan Yuan.
This news filled Chen Chongshan with immense gratitude, yet also a touch of apprehension.
During his three years of high school, he didn't know much about Yuan Yuan's family situation. He only knew that her family should be well-off, but he never expected that her family had such a deep background.
Even if the director of a county public security bureau is not concurrently the secretary of the political and legal affairs committee, he is still a powerful section-level cadre. He may not be conspicuous in other places, but in Meishan County, it is no exaggeration to say that he has connections everywhere.
With an uncle like that, Yuan Yuan's family in Meishan County probably wouldn't be so mediocre.
"Yuan Yuan, thank you."
Chen Chongshan turned his head and looked at Yuan Yuan, who was looking at him with a worried expression. He gently shook his head: "However, I can't leave now. A gentleman knows what to do and what not to do. It was only because Young Master Xu and the others came to help me that things turned out like this. Although I may not be able to help much if I stay, I should at least be able to share the burden with them."
"But the mountains..."
Yuan Yuan was in a hurry and was about to say something, but Chen Chongshan stopped her: "I'll have to trouble you with Chongming during this time."
"Chongming, listen to Sister Yuan Yuan. Also, take Ah Huang back; its leg is injured."
Chen Chongshan then gave Chen Chongming another instruction.
"Um."
Unexpectedly, Chen Chongming did not make a fuss or say much; he simply nodded slightly, seemingly understanding Chen Chongshan's actions.
"Chief Liu, if you're going to arrest them, then arrest them all at once."
After explaining everything, Chen Chongshan walked to Xu Jiaming's side, looked coldly at Director Liu, and said indifferently.
"If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences. Take them all with you."
Director Liu snorted coldly, but stopped talking nonsense. Although he was very afraid of Director Qin, Director Qin had only mentioned it lightly when he called before, which clearly showed that the relationship between the two was not very good. Now the truth was out, and she was just a classmate of Director Qin's niece.
Given this kind of relationship, it would be quite good if Director Qin would step in and make a suggestion once. As long as one doesn't go too far, the possibility of Director Qin intervening again is almost zero.
"You little rascal."
Xu Jiaming looked at Chen Chongshan, somewhat amused and exasperated, but his expression showed great appreciation: "Alright, if you don't want to leave, then don't. Anyway, it's nothing serious."
"Nothing serious? I'll tell you what serious matters are in a bit."
Huang Mao chuckled coldly a few times, but Xu Jiaming remained noncommittal and ignored him. Instead, he turned to Zhang Yang and said, "Zhang Yang, make a call and see if they've arrived yet. It's pointless to keep wasting time here. We still have to go back to Tanzhou today."
Xu Jiaming's words surprised everyone. Huang Mao was about to make a few sarcastic remarks when Zhang Yang took out his phone to make a call. Just then, a silver Audi A4 appeared from the street corner and arrived in front of everyone in a moment.
Looking at the car, Xu Jiaming and the others smiled faintly and didn't move. However, Director Liu's expression changed, and he hurriedly went to greet them, opening the car door himself. Even Huang Mao San, who had been groveling, put on a servile face and followed behind Director Liu.
"Young Master Lin, what brings you here today?"
With a smile on his face, Director Liu spoke respectfully to a young man in his early twenties inside the car.
However, the young man didn't seem to care much for Director Liu and Huang Mao San. He didn't even acknowledge them, got out of the car, and walked towards Xu Jiaming and the others with a smile: "Brother Xu, Brother Yang, President Wang."
"Little Lin, you're here?" Xu Jiaming smiled faintly and nodded slightly.
"Brother Xu, when did you arrive in Meishan? Why didn't you tell me beforehand? What's going on here today? Are you alright?"
Lin Shao replied with a smile, his expression still carrying a hint of awe.
"Haha, everything's fine now, but if you had come any later, things might have gotten a little complicated."
Zhang Yang laughed and replied to Lin Shao.
"Brother Yang, I came as soon as I got the call. I was still in Yizhou City when you called, so I'm a little late."
Lin Shao hurriedly explained, "But don't worry, Brother Yang, if these people offend you, leave them to me, and I'll make sure you get your revenge."
Lin Shao coldly glanced at Director Liu, Huang Mao San, and the group of street thugs who had not yet dispersed, as if they were nothing more than ants in his eyes.
When these people met Lin Shao's gaze, they were like mice meeting a cat. In particular, Director Liu and Huang Mao San felt a chill run down their spines after hearing Lin Shao's words.
Huang Mao San may not be afraid of the police station, and Chief Liu may defy Director Qin, but in front of this young man, their confidence vanished instantly.
This seemingly sunny young man actually carries the aura of being the most powerful son in Meishan County. His father, the county party secretary, is an absolute figure in Meishan County, wielding considerable influence in the city and even rumored to have connections that extend directly to the provincial level.
But now, this powerful young master with such a strong background is showing fear in front of these young people. What must these young people be like...?
Director Liu and Huang Maosan dared not think about what would happen next. They stared at the scene before them, but dared not interrupt, for fear that they might accidentally cause other trouble.
Chen Chongshan watched quietly from the side, and the sudden, earth-shattering change in the situation made him feel much more at ease.
He didn't say anything, just watched quietly. Although he didn't know who Young Master Lin was, he already knew that he absolutely couldn't afford to suffer any more losses.
"Alright, enough of this 'bad temper' stuff."
Xu Jiaming smiled faintly: "Jianbin, you can handle this yourself. We're fine. It's just that my friend seems to have been treated unfairly in your police station. Look at him all dressed up."
Xu Jiaming pointed at Chen Chongshan, and Lin Jianbin's gaze immediately shifted to Chen Chongshan. He was secretly alarmed.
He knew Xu Jiaming's background perfectly well. Xu Jiaming's friend was probably no ordinary person either. This damned police station actually beat him up like this. What if they investigated this...
Seeing everyone looking at him, Chen Chongshan paused, then gently shook his head and said, "I'm fine."
He had already experienced a lot in this police station—some bad, some dark, some fair, some unfair—and he was tired of it all and didn't want to have anything to do with it anymore.
His injuries were only superficial and would heal in a few days. He knew that if he persisted, this young master Lin might seek justice for him, but Chen Chongshan didn't want to waste any more energy on this. He should prepare as soon as possible and then take his younger brother to Tanzhou for treatment.
Lin Jianbin breathed a sigh of relief as soon as Chen Chongshan spoke, not because Chen Chongshan said he was fine, but because of Chen Chongshan's accent. It was clearly a local Meishan accent. Since he was from Meishan County, everything would be much easier to resolve.
"Don't worry, young man, I'll definitely get justice for you," Lin Jianbin replied with a smile.
"I……"
Chen Chongshan shook his head, about to refuse, but Xu Jiaming suddenly spoke up: "Alright, Chongshan, let Jianbin handle this. Let's go settle the bill with Boss Qin. We're in a hurry to get back to Tanzhou later."
Upon hearing Xu Jiaming's words, Chen Chongshan was taken aback, then nodded and said nothing more. As long as he didn't need to get involved anymore, he would let them do whatever they wanted.
Lin Jianbin quickly spoke up: "Brother Xu, why are you in such a hurry to leave? I haven't even had a chance to show you my hospitality yet."
"I've only been out for a few days this time, so I won't stay any longer. There will be other opportunities in the future."
Xu Jiaming smiled but didn't say anything more. He turned and got into the car. After Zhang Yang and Wang Feng loaded the several pieces of eucalyptus into the car, they helped Chen Chongshan, Yuan Yuan, and Chen Chongming hail a taxi on the street and headed straight for Lao Qin's Wild Game Manor...
…………
On the open ground, only a group of police officers from the local police station, a large group of thugs, Chief Liu, and Huang Mao San remained, looking at Lin Jianbin with subservience.
They didn't have much contact with this young master from Meishan County on a regular basis. Although they knew each other, their relationship wasn't very solid. Even though the main figures had already left, they didn't know what they would face next. Whoever the other party was, they were clearly people they couldn't afford to offend.
"Liu Neng".
Lin Jianbin suddenly spoke up, looking at Director Liu and shouting.
"Young Master Lin, you must have a bad memory. You've got it wrong. My name isn't Liu Neng, it's Liu Fa," Director Liu hurriedly replied.
"Liu Fa?"
Lin Jianbin sneered: "I think you should just call yourself Liu Neng. You're so capable, aren't you? Just like that Liu Neng, you're always causing trouble."
"You dare to mess with Xu Jiaming? And you even had a whole bunch of policemen and thugs gang up on him?"
"Luckily they didn't pursue the matter today. If they had, not only would you be out of uniform, but you'd probably still have a lot of government jobs left. And you, Huang Mao San, don't think you can act like a lawless person in Meishan County, going around messing with everyone. You won't even know how you died."
"You guys can deal with that kid you injured yourselves. If you can't satisfy him, none of you are going to stay in this business."
Lin Jianbin unleashed a torrent of curses, then got into his car without a second thought. Liu Fa and Huang Mao watched respectfully as Lin Jianbin started the car. Finally, Liu Fa couldn't help but ask, "Young Master Lin, what is the background of Young Master Xu?"
"What's your background?" Lin Jianbin sneered, "Telling you would scare you to death."
After saying that, Lin Jianbin stepped on the gas, and the Audi sped away, tracing a graceful arc...
