Fools will never know how foolish they truly are.
Minister Ren was very arrogant, but it was undeniable that his methods were indeed effective.
This was Jindu, and if Li Xiaoyao truly dared to attack a person of the state, the matter would become serious.
Li Xiaoyao and Xiao Ya came out of the KTV, got in the car, and Li Xiaoyao asked, “Where do you live?”
“I have a villa outside the Fifth Ring, but I don’t like going there usually. Living in such a big place alone is scary, so I stay in hotels,” Xiao Ya said with a pitiable look on her face.
Li Xiaoyao placed his palm on her thigh and said, “Tonight, it’s two of us.”
“Mhm.” Xiao Ya’s cheeks turned red, and a warm current spread from Li Xiaoyao’s palm along her thigh, making her feel tingly all over.
...
Suddenly, a figure sprang out of nowhere from the side, and Xiao Ya, startled, immediately stepped on the brakes.
She hadn’t hit him, Xiao Ya was certain.
“What happened?” Li Xiaoyao frowned. Could such a thing happen just driving a car?
Xiao Ya opened the door and said, “Not sure, let’s go have a look first.”
They got out of the car, walked to the front, and saw a man lying on the ground with his eyes wide open, his tone remarkably calm, and said, “You hit me.”
The two of them saw this scene and were amused. Oh wow, was this someone trying to scam them?
“Hit you?” Li Xiaoyao laughed and said, “Your scamming skills are not up to snuff, there’s not even a mark on you.”
The man also laughed and said, “Ten thousand yuan, give me that and I’ll leave.”
“Ten thousand yuan? Hah, you’ve got some nerve asking for it. Although I’m not short of this money, I really don’t want to give it to someone who’s trying to get money for nothing. You better get up quickly, or else I might spend a hundred thousand for your life,” Li Xiaoyao said, lighting up a cigarette.
The man took out a cell phone from behind and stared at Li Xiaoyao: “I’ll ask you one more time, will you give it or not?”
Impatience flashed in Li Xiaoyao’s eyes, and the man nodded his head, starting to make a call.
“I’ve been hit, the location is…” After the man reported to the police, he said, “The police will be here soon, don’t run away.”
“Sure, I’ll wait right here.”
Xiao Ya felt that something was not quite right and tugged at Li Xiaoyao’s arm, saying, “I feel like something’s off here.”
“Don’t think too much, it must be Minister Ren stirring up trouble,” Li Xiaoyao said.
“You know?”
Li Xiaoyao sneered, “His little tricks, I can guess them even with my eyes closed.”
As they spoke, the police arrived; their quick response was telling.

Two police officers came over and looked around, asking, “What happened here?”
The man lying on the ground was now sniveling, “He hit me.”
The police then looked toward Li Xiaoyao, and Li Xiaoyao said, “I have a dashcam.”
The man was a bit stunned, and the police probably didn’t expect it either. After thinking a bit, they said, “Let’s go back to the station to make a statement, and I’ll check the dashcam.”
With that, Li Xiaoyao understood the matter wouldn’t end well today.
He was hesitating whether he should call Liu Chengxiang to handle this when his cell phone suddenly rang.
Seeing the number, Li Xiaoyao laughed; it was actually from Department One.
“Li Xiaoyao, where are you?” It was that all too familiar female voice.
“Jindu,” Li Xiaoyao said indifferently, cigarette hanging from his lips.
“Jindu? You’re in Jindu?” Wang Xiaorou’s words barely left her mouth before she stopped talking. Their Department One had been tasked with investigating Li Xiaoyao, yet they couldn’t even figure out his basic movements, a dereliction of duty.
“Is there something you need?”

Wang Xiaorou coughed to mask her embarrassment and said, “The Military Governor wants to see you.”
“The Military Governor wants to see me?” Li Xiaoyao was quite surprised, then replied, “I’m afraid that won’t be possible; I’ve run into a bit of trouble here.”
“What trouble?” Wang Xiaorou was even more astonished than him. Li Xiaoyao, someone so unruly, had run into trouble?
“Can you tell me what the trouble is? Department One has considerable power in Jindu; perhaps we can help you resolve it.”
“I just had a car accident involving a scammer, and now the police want to take me back to give a statement,” Li Xiaoyao explained truthfully.
“A scammer?” Wang Xiaorou blinked her beautiful eyes, feeling very strange about it.
A Cultivator in the Spirit Condensation Realm getting bothered by a scammer incident? It sounded almost surreal.
“Did you offend someone?” Wang Xiaorou’s intuition was sharp.
Li Xiaoyao laughed and said, “Indeed, I did offend someone. Minister Ren, have you heard of him? That fatty has been eyeing my woman and wants to take over my assets in Jindu. I spared his life out of respect for Department One, but I didn’t expect this fatso to be so ungrateful as to defy me.”
“Minister Ren? Ren Fali?”
“Yes, that fatty.”
“Which precinct are you at? I’ll be right there.”
…
At the precinct, Li Xiaoyao and the scammer had both been brought in. After giving their statements, the police proceeded with their questioning as standard, with the scammer insisting that Li Xiaoyao had hit him.
Li Xiaoyao didn’t speak, just smiled faintly.
He knew the other party was trying to provoke him into striking first; once he did, the situation would become much more serious.
The policemen were clearly acting on behalf of Minister Ren and were very hostile toward Li Xiaoyao, short of resorting to lynching.
“Screech!”
The abrupt sound of a car coming to a halt came from outside. Wang Xiaorou, wearing a leather jacket and pants, got off the vehicle and walked with imposing swagger, her ponytail swinging behind her head.
“Who are you?” someone immediately approached, wary.
Wang Xiaorou took out her badge and tossed it over. Seeing the badge, the man deflated and said hurriedly, “Wang Section Chief, please wait a moment; I’ll go find the director.”
“Get over here,” Wang Xiaorou called the man back, who was clearly baffled and asked, “Is there something you need, Section Chief Wang?”
“Where are the people you captured?”
“Which people?” The man was thoroughly perplexed.
“Section Chief Wang, this way,” Li Xiaoyao’s voice came from the interrogation room.
Wang Xiaorou discerned the direction and swiftly walked over.
“Bang!”
Wang Xiaorou kicked the door open and said, “Come with me.”
The two policemen were stunned—they had never seen such a display in the precinct before. Someone dared to do this? Their anger flared, and one of them bellowed, “Stop right there! Do you know where you are?”
Before he finished speaking, a chubby man in a police uniform descended the stairs. Spotting Wang Xiaorou, he immediately broke out in cold sweat, “Section Chief Wang, what brings you here? You should have called ahead, so I could have come to greet you.”
“Greet me? Ha, no need; I’m just here to pick someone up.” Then Wang Xiaorou pointed to Li Xiaoyao and said, “This is Li Xiaoyao, a member of Department One. Be more attentive in the future.”
Although she didn’t name names, the director could clearly read the implication in Wang Xiaorou’s words and nodded repeatedly.
“Sorry, Mr. Li, there’s definitely been some misunderstanding here.”
Li Xiaoyao didn’t bother to quibble and waved his hand, “It’s fine. Go about your business.”
Xiao Ya curiously observed this valiant and impressive girl, wondering about her relationship with Li Xiaoyao.
