330: Chapter 330: He’s Not Soone You Can Afford to Provoke!
No one else ca to disturb them after that, and Tangyu and Liu Shiyi were able to enjoy a quiet firepot dinner in peace.
Neither was much of a talker, and it was obviously hard to find many topics of conversation.
Knowing that Tangyu had a girlfriend, Liu Shiyi felt sowhat uneasy, and most of their conversation revolved around her asking Tangyu for advice on so traditional Chinese dicine topics.
Less than an hour passed before they finished their al, both eating happily and inadvertently drawing their relationship a bit closer.
Of course, if Lin Feifei weren’t in the picture, Liu Shiyi’s feelings for Tangyu might have grown much stronger.
This invisible barrier also left Tangyu feeling quite helpless.
“Let’s go,” said Liu Shiyi, standing up.
“Okay,” Tangyu nodded.
After paying the bill, they left the firepot restaurant together.
It was quite a bargain, as they hadn’t even spent a hundred yuan on the al.
This dinner had actually earned Tangyu ten thousand yuan.
He thought about using the money to buy a gift for Liu Shiyi, but feared it might seem too abrupt.
However, before Tangyu could give it much thought, they hadn’t even walked out of the restaurant when an angry voice ca through: “Cousin, it’s him.”
Upon hearing this voice, Tangyu imdiately knew who it was.
Indeed, trouble was never in short supply in the world.
The student whose nose Tangyu had broken had actually brought back so help, and this was no ordinary backup—it was two n in police uniforms.
Liu Shiyi’s brows furrowed in concern, and she looked worriedly at Tangyu.
“Cousin, it’s him who extorted ten thousand yuan from and broke my nose.
Arrest him quickly,” urged the student to the police office beside him.
The officer frowned slightly and gave the student a dark look, annoyed that he wasn’t being more discreet.
Now everyone could tell he was an accomplice, making it impossible to act with ‘due process.’ The officer seed frustrated by the student’s lack of tact.
Ma Fugui was the captain of the police station in the Eastern District, a very respected figure around Donglin University, and when he had heard his cousin was extorted for ten thousand yuan and had his nose broken, he was furious and rushed over with a subordinate.
After all, having reached the position of station captain by the age of thirty, Ma Fugui knew his cousin’s family had provided considerable financial and relational support.
Naturally, he felt compelled to resolve such matters.
The owner of the firepot restaurant also hurried over: “Captain Ma, what brings you here, and what’s going on?”
The student, upon seeing the restaurant owner, was enraged and pointed at him while berating: “Humph, weren’t you acting all high and mighty just now, kicking us out?
Now you’re asking us what’s going on?
You tell what’s going on!”
The sudden change of events made the surrounding people turn their attention to the scene.
The restaurant owner’s face darkened.
He knew these two were children of wealthy families, but for Tangyu’s sake, he was willing to risk offending them.
“Captain Ma, this issue is a misunderstanding,” the owner said without paying attention to the student but instead addressing Ma Fugui.
Ma Fugui looked at Tangyu, and upon recognizing him, he couldn’t help but shudder, imdiately plastering a respectful expression on his face: “Mr.
Tangyu, it’s you.
This is definitely a misunderstanding,” he said, then turned to his cousins and shouted, “Cousins, why aren’t you apologizing to Mr.
Tangyu right now?”
The two n were stunned.
They had called their cousin to help regain face, but how could it be that in the blink of an eye, they were the ones being told to apologize?
And seeing their cousin’s respectful manner, they couldn’t understand what was happening.
But overco with rage, how could they consider the consequences?
“Cousin, why are you siding with an outsider?
They’re the ones who should be apologizing,” they protested.
“Shut up and apologize, you fools,” Ma Fugui wanted to slap his cousin, unable to believe how foolish they were.
Couldn’t they read the room or see the look on his face or understand the tone of his voice?
Did they really think everyone was soone they could afford to provoke?
Ma Fugui felt like crying, realizing he had clashed with soone untouchable.
Tangyu’s reputation in Donglin City was rising, and Ma Fugui knew that even Chief Jiang gave Tangyu much respect.
Furthermore, Xu Hu, the local influence around Donglin University, was close to him, calling each other brothers.
To top it all, Tangyu was also the future son-in-law of Lin Guotai from the Lin Group.
Just that morning, Donglin City cracked a major drug case, and the infamous Zhang Guoli was arrested.
Ma Fugui had also heard early on that Tangyu was involved in this case, having provided assistance in solving it.
Moreover, Bureau Chief Yang had high praise for Tangyu.
Such a figure was like a towering mountain to Ma Fugui, soone he dared not offend.
The restaurant owner had planned to notify Brother Hu if Captain Ma didn’t give him face.
But seeing Ma Fugui’s attitude, the owner was stunned, realizing that Mr.
Tangyu’s influence was far greater than he had imagined.
Liu Shiyi glanced at Tangyu, a flicker of surprise crossing her eyes.
Seeing his cousin stubbornly silent, Ma Fugui’s mouth twitched.
He hurriedly bowed and scraped to Tangyu: “Mr.
Tangyu, I apologize on behalf of my cousins.
I’m truly sorry.
They’re young and don’t know any better.
I hope you, as a generous person, can forgive them.
I will certainly punish them severely later on; please don’t take it to heart,” Ma Fugui said cautiously, watching Tangyu’s reaction.
Tangyu smiled lightly and said, “As long as they don’t bother , I really can’t be bothered with them.
Let it go — I don’t want to make a big deal out of a al with a beautiful lady.
Let’s go.”
“Yes, yes, thank you, Young Master Tang.
I’ll be sure to express my gratitude properly next ti,” Ma Fugui hurriedly thanked him, no longer daring to linger.
He grabbed the two people and dragged them toward the outside.
Tangyu flashed Liu Shiyi a slight smile and said, “Let’s go.”
Once those people were sent off, the hotpot restaurant burst into a flurry of activity—naturally, it was all about Tangyu.
The n envied and resented him, no wonder he could charm such a great beauty, while the won admired him.
Which girl wouldn’t like a boy like that?
After leaving the hotpot restaurant, the man couldn’t comprehend: “Cousin, what’s the deal with that Tang guy?
Do we really need to be so reverently respectful towards him?
If you can’t handle it, I can find sobody else to do it.
There’s no need to shout at —I’m very upset about it.
I’ve suffered a great loss, and it’s bad enough that you don’t help , but you actually sided with an outsider.
Hmph, cousin, is this how you protect ?”
Ma Fugui’s face was paler than light, turning slightly blue: “What do you know?
If he were soone we could afford to provoke, I naturally would have settled this score for you.
Do you think I’m a fool?
Do I not know better than you whether soone is unprovokable?
You, you really think that with just the little influence and connections your family has, you can recklessly trample on anyone you choose?
Let tell you clearly, you can’t afford to ss with him.
Even if you had your father call on all your family’s connections, you still couldn’t shake a single hair on his head.
You’re getting more reckless by the day, losing even the most basic common sense.
This path you’re on will really bring danger.
The waters of Donglin City are far deeper than you imagine.
As for , I’m just a small police station team leader, nothing in Donglin City.
Although your family has so money and so connections, those are too flimsy.
To put it another way, there are far too many people in Donglin City that you can’t afford to provoke, and Young Master Tang is far beyond your reach.”
The man’s face turned cold, looking quite ugly: “Cousin, what do you an by that?
Although I don’t know him, I’m aware he’s not the son of so major power.
Why can’t I afford to provoke him?”
“Hmph, what do you know.
I’ll just ntion one of his titles, and you tell if you still think you can provoke him.
He’s the son-in-law of the Lin Group, the Lin Family.
I won’t say more, just this one fact should make you realize his importance,” Ma Fugui said.
“What?
How is that possible?”
“Hmph, there’s nothing impossible.
Forget about , even the director of the Eastern District Public Security Bureau, Director Jiang, treats him with the utmost politeness.
Just a Director Jiang is soone your family can’t afford to provoke, let alone the huge Lin Group.
Don’t be discontented with that.
The Lin Group’s connections are just a part of his strength.
Even without relying on the Lin Group, you still can’t afford to provoke him.
Cousin, it’s not that I won’t help you; whenever you’ve had trouble in the past, when have I not helped you settle it?
But this ti, you’ve really ssed with soone who’s out of your league.
The man’s fearsoness is beyond what you can imagine.
Don’t bla for not warning you.
If you go after him again, I’d rather not say what your fate will be,” Ma Fugui said, even Zhang Guoli, Zhou Tao, and the Zhou Family had fallen at the hands of this young man.
You, who are nothing, ddling with him—isn’t that just asking for death?
“——” The man’s face went pale, unable to utter a single word.
The blow was imnsely devastating for him.
After leaving the hotpot restaurant, Tangyu offered to escort Liu Shiyi ho, and naturally, she didn’t refuse since they weren’t far off.
After a al, taking a walk seed quite nice.
Liu Shiyi’s phone suddenly rang, and after a glance, she answered: “Wang Mama, is there sothing wrong?”
Shiyi, it’s not good.
The old master has fallen, and it’s very serious.
It seems even his lumbar vertebra might be broken.
You should co back quickly,” an urgent voice ca from the other end of the line.
“What?
Grandfather has fallen?
How could that happen?
I’m coming ho right now,” Liu Shiyi exclaid in shock and started running ho without even saying a word to Tangyu.
Tangyu followed her quickly, grasping Liu Shiyi’s hand.
Liu Shiyi instinctively tried to pull away, but when she saw it was Tangyu, she stopped resisting and let him pull her towards her ho.
Within less than five minutes, they arrived at dicine Hall.
It was already night, and the employees of the Liu Family had gone ho, leaving only the nanny, Wang Mama.
As soon as they entered, they saw Old Master Liu lying on the ground.
Wang Mama ran over to Liu Shiyi as soon as she returned: “Quickly check the old master, he can’t move now.”
Liu Shiyi also squatted beside Old Master Liu: “Grandfather, what happened to you?”
Old Master Liu’s face was filled with pain as he said, “My lumbar vertebra is fractured, and now I can’t move my entire body.”
“What, a lumbar fracture—that—Grandfather, I’ll call an ambulance and take you to the hospital,” Liu Shiyi was terrified, as a lumbar fracture was very serious; it could an her grandfather would have to lie in bed forever.
The thought brought tears to Liu Shiyi’s eyes.
Old Master Liu shook his head: “It’s no use, Shiyi.
I’m already so old, my bones have aged, and there’s no chance of reconnecting them.
Just help Grandfather to the bed first.”
“It’s all my fault, I should never have let the old master climb the ladder,” Wang Mama said, full of self-reproach.
Old Master Liu’s mood also dropped; as a doctor, he understood his own condition well.
If he was going to be bedridden for the rest of his life, he feared he would beco a burden to Liu Shiyi.
