Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 288: Chapter 285: It’s Easy to Invite a God, Difficult to Send One Away

He Haidong had dealt with Fu Yuanshan for many years and knew his temper. If it were some trivial matter, Fu Yuanshan wouldn’t even mention it.

But now, Fu Yuanshan had called to scold someone with great fanfare and had personally come to Luwan District to pick someone up—this was a big deal.

He Haidong was annoyed. Ever since Liu Ming had arrived at his police station, his role as the director seemed like nothing more than a figurehead. Liu Ming always looked down on him disdainfully, and he couldn’t do anything to Liu Ming because Liu Ming had backers.

But now, Liu Ming had screwed up himself. Was he supposed to clean up this mess left behind?

Director He was no kind soul. In just a few seconds, he had regained his composure, his eyes flashed, and a thought gradually formed in his mind.

He was supposed to be on leave, he wasn’t supposed to know anything about the incident, and he could wash his hands off it completely. Since Liu Ming was the one who caused the trouble, he should be the one to carry the can!

Thinking this, He Haidong felt slightly better. However, his mood fell the moment he arrived at the Luwan District Police Station.

Miss Huo was also somewhat dumbfounded—she looked at the line of soldiers standing in front of her, completely unable to grasp what was going on.

Liu Ming and the other officers of the police station were also scared silly by the appearance of these soldiers. He had received a message from Fu Yuanshan and was just about to slap handcuffs on Gu Xu when suddenly, a Humvee drove into the precinct.

The moment the vehicle stopped, seven or eight soldiers dressed in camouflage jumped out and immediately surrounded them, the few cops.

The spectacle had left several of the faint-hearted officers utterly dumbfounded.

”Cough, cough, Miss Huo, are you all right?”

The man leading the group of camouflaged soldiers, exuding a powerful aura, stepped forward and asked with a resonant voice while laughing as he looked at the unharmed Huo Sining inside the interrogation room.

”Instructor Chen?!”

Huo Sining was taken aback. Chen Deping, dressed in a camouflage uniform and sunburnt to the extent that only his eyes shone vividly, was almost unrecognizable. Yet, she quickly identified him by his voice.

Chen Deping, dressed in his clean camouflage uniform, gave off an intense ruffian vibe: ”Who else but me? What, it’s only been a few months and you don’t recognize me?”

Huo Sining felt awkward—after all, his face was so tanned that only his teeth stood out, how could she recognize him?

Glancing at the soldiers behind Chen Deping, Huo Sining asked somewhat puzzled: ”What’s all this?”

With an air of nonchalance, Chen Deping said, ”Your second uncle said you were kidnapped by the police and sent me to rescue you. What’s going on with you? Weren’t you quite the tough one at the training camp? How did a few cops get the drop on you?”

Only then did Huo Sining realize that Chen Deping was here to help her.

She immediately felt silly, while Chen Deping didn’t care and turned to look at Liu Ming with a grim face: ”Who did this? Unlock those handcuffs now!”

They say scholars cannot reason with soldiers. Facing ordinary people, Liu Ming could be as domineering as he pleased, acting as if he were the law itself. But faced with ruffian-like soldiers like Chen Deping, he instantly turned into a tortoise wishing to shrink back into its shell.

In this world, indeed, if you’re strong, he’s weak; if you’re weak, he’s strong. It takes a villain to tame another!

Liu Ming thought he had only provoked Gu Xu, a major figure, but never expected that this woman, who seemed to have little presence with her gentle voice and smile, would call forth a group of soldiers without uttering a word.

Now Liu Ming was completely shocked. Previously acting all high and mighty, he turned into nothing but a grandson under the watch of seven or eight soldiers, bowing non-stop to Huo Sining and attempting to unlock the shackles for both Huo Sining and Gu Xu with the keys.

”Mr. Gu, Miss Huo, I really am sorry about today’s incident, I had no idea what I was dealing with and I’ve caused you trouble, I must have been possessed, blind as a bat. Let me apologize to you all, and please, let’s not hold a grudge over a trivial matter like this!”

Liu Ming thought that by unlocking the shackles for Gu Xu and Huo Sining and saying sorry, the matter would be resolved, but he was being too naive.
