Chapter 1889: Chapter 1952: Stuck in the Middle
Fortunately, the plane was the Li family’s private plane, specially flown over to pick up Li Yifei. The only hassle was that it was parked at the military airport. If it didn’t take off on ti, it would require multiple layers of approval and reporting. Fortunately, when Elder Su left, he also left a ssage, and the person in charge of the military airport gave so face, so the plane could wait.
Li Yifei and Su Lio sat, as did those children, one by one filled with resentnt.
After finishing the record, Li Yifei also admitted that he acted, and those kids clamored for him to be dealt with. How dare the officers handle Li Yifei, especially since he had significant relations with the family in the mountains.
Half an hour later, the mayor of River City, where Changbai Mountain is located, ca personally. Although he was just the mayor of a county-level city, a bureau-level official, he didn’t want to co. But the matter involved the family in the mountains and the children of another highly influential family, so he had to co, especially since a leader from the province personally called.
His purpose in coming was to diate between the two sides, to soothe the family in the mountains, and at the sa ti, take away the children. This mayor was also quite troubled, especially after arriving and pulling aside several officers to inquire about the situation. Upon learning the intentions of these children, his facial fat trembled, and he cursed inwardly, wondering what kind of parents educated their children like this.
The current season had passed the peak tourist season for Changbai Mountain, but there were still tourists coming, and the fallen leaves covering the mountains were a beautiful sight. Recently, he went to the Changbai Mountain Scenic Area and saw many such children in similar attire. The leadership of the scenic area reflected that these people lacked safety awareness and were quite uncivilized. Not only did they litter and invade restricted areas, but they also caused disturbances when not allowed in, repeatedly clamoring to "rescue so guy."
Of course, there were also well-behaved children who, after coming, didn’t disrupt the normal operation of the scenic area and only ca to join in the excitent and pay tribute to their favorite novels.
"Damn it, isn’t this causing
trouble!" the mayor cursed under his breath, then sighed and walked in with his head lowered. Upon seeing Su Lio and Li Yifei, the mayor smiled, walked over, extended his hand, and said, "Sorry for the trouble they’ve caused you!"
Li Yifei didn’t recognize him and didn’t know who he was, and Su Lio, of course, wasn’t going to shake his hand. As for Su Tong, he was angry as the police dared to treat them the sa as those brainless kids despite his involvent. Su Tong even started cursing earlier, so even though he recognized the person who entered, he had no intention of acknowledging him.
Bai Tianming extended his hand but was ignored, leaving him a bit stunned. He then laughed awkwardly, aware of the events, and acknowledged the injustice towards the Su family mbers, stating directly: "We had no choice in asking you to co back as it was the province’s decision. Initially, they didn’t know your identities, and the families of those children also insisted, so..."
Li Yifei raised his eyelids, smiled slightly, and Bai Tianming swallowed before continuing: "So it’s better to let this matter go. I’ll apologize on behalf of them, and the parents of those children will co to take them away..."
"Damn, Mayor Bai, is this how you handle things?" Li Yifei and Su Lio stayed silent, but Su Tong couldn’t hold back. He dropped his cigarette on the ground, walked over to Bai Tianming, and questioned, "So those brainless kids, just because they have soone backing them, can walk away unscathed? If we weren’t mbers of the Su Family, would you have had us arrested and followed the rules?"
Bai Tianming, forced into a corner by Su Tong, faced with embarrassnt, said, "I just found out about this, Su... All right, let
be honest with you—though don’t vent your anger on —I’m just here to manage this situation, and neither side can I offend."
Many people exist whom a county-level city mayor can’t afford to offend, so he didn’t feel embarrassed saying it outright. However, Su Tong felt even more uncomfortable. So you just handle it this way because you can’t offend them?
"Bai Tianming, let’s cut to the chase. Tell , who are those punks? Brain-dead enough to intrude on my territory, causing trouble when they’re denied entry—this is disturbing public order, right? From what I know, many such people have intruded into Changbai Mountain. Is this how you’re being a mayor?"
"I’ve told you, among those kids, two are from the Zhao Clan of Southern Sky. The Zhao Family has good connections with a leader from the province, so upon knowing about this matter, it was entrusted to that leader... That’s why I’ve co, and there really wasn’t anything I could do."
Su Tong furrowed his brow and said, "The Zhao Family? What nonsense. How is it that people from Southern Sky Province have a hand in this? Do you have to listen if they fart?"
Su Lio frowned, while Li Yifei raised his head. Hearing the Zhao Clan of Southern Sky ntioned, he found it quite a coincidence. No wonder those two kids could brag like that. If it were the number one Zhao Family of Southern Sky, what they said might not have been an exaggeration. However, if they’re this brain-dead, the Zhao Family’s future is worrying.
Bai Tianming was speechless under Su Tong’s questioning. He was just there to bear the brunt of the situation and couldn’t say much.
Fortunately, at that mont, Li Yifei stood up and said, "Since it’s the Zhao Clan of Southern Sky, let’s let this matter go. When you pass the word back, tell them Li Yifei advises them to manage their kids better. It’s fine to be arrogant in Southern Sky, but don’t co flaunting over here!"
"Hey, Li... This matter can’t just end like that. Don’t make guarantees you can’t keep!" Su Tong protested imdiately upon hearing this, then pointed at Bai Tianming and said, "I’m telling you, I won’t leave today. I don’t care if it’s the Zhao Family of Southern Sky or the Wang Family. Today, if this matter doesn’t leave
satisfied, those brainless kids won’t walk out of Changbai Mountain."
Li Yifei chuckled, nodded, and said, "Then handle it your way. I’ll head back to Mile City with Su Lio first."
"You!" Su Tong was filled with imnse dissatisfaction, but he couldn’t outright confront Li Yifei. Throwing up his hands, Su Tong said, "Then you guys leave. I’m not going anywhere. Damn it, so brainless kids have dared to threaten !"
Su Lio paused and told Su Tong, "Su Tong, you should go too. It’s not a big deal, no need to make a scene. Since soone will be coming to take those kids, it’s not our concern anymore."
Previously, she had wanted to stop those children out of concern for their safety in the mountains. As for being angry, she wasn’t really angry, mainly just a little delayed.
Li Yifei had already walked out, and after finishing her sentence, so did Su Lio. Su Tong was increasingly furious, feeling both humiliated and irritated by Li Yifei’s indifference. Damn it, just because his martial skills are superior, he thinks he’s aweso. Especially with Su Lio’s attitude towards him, Su Tong was even more displeased.
By the ti Su Tong resolved the issue, it was already evening. The father of those two kids took a private plane directly over and went to the police station. Knowing it involved the Su family, his attitude was very good, and he proactively apologized to Su Tong. At this point, Bai Tianming reiterated what Li Yifei had said. Though initially reluctant, he figured, since he was rely the middleman, he’d just pass on the ssage; the reaction was for them to worry about.
When Zhao Ye heard the na Li Yifei, he froze montarily, then realized who this person was, his expression changed, and he hurriedly asked Bai Tianming how Li Yifei ca to be there.
Bai Tianming explained the situation, and Zhao Ye understood that it was Li Yifei who had hit his children. He grimaced; how could he not be angry when his kids were beaten? Were he not angry or worried, why would he fly directly over? Initially, he thought the kids just provoked the Su family. Luckily, it wasn’t a big issue, and an apology would suffice. After all, the Zhao family’s elder was acquainted with the elder from the Su family, so so courtesy could be exchanged. But who knew it was Li Yifei who acted.
Regarding Li Yifei, the Zhao Clan of Southern Sky knew a lot, even investigating his past. Of course, Li Yifei’s past wasn’t secretive, though it was sowhat confidential. Yet, for the Zhao family, it was easy to find out.
The Zhao Family had previously intended to expand into Ning Province, but Li Yifei disrupted this, so the plan was shelved for now. Originally, the Zhao Family planned to teach Li Yifei a lesson, but this guy went abroad afterward and fought against Satan, reportedly a fierce battle in which Li Yifei supposedly killed Satan.
Since then, Li Yifei’s prestige in that circle was unparalleled, especially as he represented the nation in that fight, achieving many benefits for the country. Consequently, the Zhao family, upon analysis, concluded that he could not be easily provoked, at least not without substantial reason. Otherwise, if they acted against Li Yifei, the state would not be pleased. Moreover, the elder of the family noted that Li Yifei’s skills were profoundly unfathomable, probably matching his own.
At the elder’s level, numbers alone cannot ensure victory. Li Yifei, despite having a family, is a reckless maverick. If pushed, his unconventional retaliation could prove unbearable for the Zhao family.
Besides, this guy had the fortune of allying with the Su Family from Capital City, another major family...
And now, he had connections with the Su Family of Changbai Mountain... Zhao Ye wasn’t foolish; upon so assessnt, he realized this and sweated slightly on his forehead. Nodding at Bai Tianming, he went out to call ho and report these matters.
Of course, he didn’t know that the two Su Families were relatives. Presently, only Li Yifei and his family knew that the Su Family of Capital City and the Su Family of Changbai Mountain originated from the sa place, and outsiders were unaware. Even after Elder Su Jingguo returned, he didn’t imdiately disclose this information. Considering his status and position today, even if he did reveal this connection, no one would create issues, let alone have any comnts.
Li Yifei, having a marriage alliance with the Su Family from Capital City, had a strong backing. If he also had a good relationship with the Su Family’s elder from Changbai Mountain, one of the Five Greatest Experts of China, his strength would once again increase, and the family’s strategy toward Li Yifei would need re-assessnt.
