Chapter 21 If I’m Going to Jail, You’re Going to Hell

Chang Huai’an didn’t predict that Ye Xinyi would show up, which proved that there was something going on between Xiao Bing and the Ye Family. He felt glad that he had prepared before doing this.

If it were only his nephew, he would never have agreed to do this dirty work. He knew his playboy nephew better than anyone else. If the people he messed with were from ordinary families, Chang Huai’an certainly knew how to protect him. However, this time it involved the Ye Family, which made it much more difficult to settle. Chang Huai’an knew that better than anyone.

Chuang Huai’an was a cunning old man. He would weigh benefits against costs before doing anything. First, he assumed that Xie Lun must have had a conflict with Xiao Bing. Otherwise, he wouldn’t bother stepping in. Therefore, he made sure he got enough benefits from Xie Lun before agreeing to do this. And what Xie Lun provided him was more than enough for him to live out the rest of his life, even if he quit his job. Moreover, this arrest was also reasonable. Even though there was no hard evidence, framing Xiao Bing as a suspect wasn’t difficult. And so, he would get around the Ye Family.

What’s more, after he learned that Xiao Bing was just a worker, he got even more certain that the Ye Family would stay out of this. And he surely didn’t believe that Ye Bancheng would leave his daughter in Xiao Bing’s hands.

In his eyes, Ye Xiaoxi was just toying with Xiao Bing.

Chang Huai’an let the policeman put back his handcuffs after he saw Ye Xinyi. Then he turned around and said with a smile, “Hello, Miss Ye.”

Ye Xinyi smiled, winked her eyes elegantly, and said, “Director Chang, Xiao Bing is a good friend of mine. There must be some misunderstanding that brought you here.”

It didn’t occur to Su Xiaoxiao and the others that Xiao Bing had such a beautiful friend. However, Xiao Bing knew that this woman was no friend to him, even though they weren’t enemies. He knew she came with a motive. So he didn’t say anything and just watched.

Chang Huai’an smiled like an old fox and said, “Miss Ye, since he’s your friend, I would certainly try to save you face. But your friend just got involved in a murder case. The head of a gang in Jin Sha District got killed. Before his death, he happened to have a conflict with Xiao Bing in which they even got into a fight. Many people witnessed it. This case has put me under a lot of pressure. And as an old policeman who has worked for many years, it’s my duty to enforce the law impartially. I am afraid I can’t do this for you.”

Ye Xinyi said with a smile, “You mean it’s just a small-time gangster who got killed?”

Chang Huai’an said, “A gangster is still a human.”

“You misunderstood what I said, Director Chang. Since he was a gangster, he must have had lots of fights, and made many enemies. If my friend had a conflict with him, I don’t think that would be enough evidence to prove that my friend was the killer. What do you say, Director Chang?” Ye Xinyi said with a confident look in her eyes. There was indeed something unique about her. People always said women with large chests were brainless. But she had both a large chest yet was also brainy.

Chang Huai’an shook his head, smiled, and said with a low voice, “If it were only that, we wouldn’t have come to arrest him. However, someone had seen him breaking in the housing estate where Fingerbreaker lived in the middle of the night.”

Xiao Bing was sure that no one stalked him that night. It was impossible anyone would have noticed him. Therefore, after he heard what Chang Huai’an said, he asked immediately, “Who?”

If it were other suspects, Chang Huai’an wouldn’t have wasted his time talking. But now that it involved a friend of the Ye Family, Chang Huai’an mentioned, “The witness is Zhang De, a servant in Xie Lun’s family. Xie Lun is a famous entrepreneur in Jiang City.”

Now people who knew the ropes understood what happened. Xiao Bing had a conflict with Xie Family, therefore the Xie Family wanted to frame him as revenge. The people in the noodle restaurant also knew that Xiao Bing had offended Chang Huai’an’s nephew, which explained the whole situation.

Ye Xinyi frowned her pretty eyebrows, asked, “Is this witness trustworthy?”

Chang Huai’an said with a smile, “This will depend on the police system to judge. Don’t worry, Miss Ye. We won’t let a single criminal get away. And we won’t wrong a single innocent man.”

Ye Xinyi pondered. If she used the Ye Family’s influence to pressure Chang Huai’an, it might anger the director of Jin Sha District Police Station. Although she didn’t care about that, she couldn’t just offend anyone at will. For her, there were many aspects to consider when messing with someone. If she disgraced him in front of many people, it would become more severe than just pissing him off.

Ye Xinyi said with a serious look, “Director Chang, before any hard evidence appears, and before the verdict of the court comes out, I hope my friend will be treated fairly during detention.”

It seemed she said this to protect Xiao Bing, but she had already made a compromise.

Chang Huai’an breathed a sigh of relief. He was a bit worried that Ye Xinyi would pressure him. Although he had gained many benefits from this case, the Ye Family was too influential for him to provoke.

Ye Xinyi walked to Xiao Bing. He looked at this glamorous girl, and said with a smile, “Nice to see you again.”

“You too.” In need of Xiao Bing’s help, Ye Xinyi said politely. She asked, “Can we have a moment alone?”

Xiao Bing took a look at Chang Huai’an. Ye Xinyi also looked to him and asked, “Director Chang, with my guarantee, is it okay if we go out and have a few words alone?”

Chang Huai’an was delighted to grant her a small favour. He said immediately, “Sure, but don’t take too long.”

Xiao Bing took Ye Xinyi to the resting room behind. There were two beds inside. Xiao Bing sat down first, pointed to the bed across, and said with a smile, “Please have a seat. This is our resting area. It’s a bit shabby, but it’s clean. Your fancy clothes won’t get dirty.”

Ye Xinyi sat down with a smile on her face. However, she looked a bit aggrieved and said in a faint voice, “Brother Bing, it seems that you are still upset with me.”

“I’m not.” Xiao Bing said with a smile, “Don’t say things like that. People might think there’s something’s going on between us.”

“Oh.” Ye Xinyi sighed slightly and said, “I admit Xie Gucheng was wrong in what happened earlier, but he was accompanying me to pick my father up at the airport. You hit him in front of me. I had to say something. After all, he was with me.”

Xiao Bing admitted Ye Xinyi was right. Especially for a soldier, this was even clearer. Only the leader of their team could discipline them. When they encountered other teams, they grouped together.

Ye Xinyi was smart and intelligent. Judging from Xiao Bing’s eyes, she could tell that Xiao Bing already forgave her. She smiled brightly and said, “Have you forgiven me?”

“Yes.” Apart from forgiving Ye Xinyi, there was another thought in Xiao Bing’s mind – Ye Xinyi was Yezi’s sister. It’s not proper to mess with her too much.

However, Ye Xinyi knew nothing about this. She didn’t even know that Xiao Bing and Yezi were in a relationship. Since Xiao Bing had forgiven her, she started bringing up her purpose, “Brother Bing, there’s something I want to discuss with you.”

“Oh? What is it? Go ahead.”

Ye Xinye smiled and said with an air of confidence, “My father is very ill now. We wanted to hire Mr. Zhang Yizhi to treat him. However, we tried a few times and got turned down. I heard Zhang Yizhi is in Jiang City now and you were the one who invited him?”

Xiao Bing nodded.

“I want you to talk to Mr. Zhang for me and ask him to treat my father just once. And I will try my best to help you with the mess you are in now.” It seemed Ye Xinye feared that Xiao Bing wouldn’t agree. She continued and offered something appealing, “I bet you can tell, but the reason Chang Huai’an wants to arrest you is not because of justice, but because he was bribed by the Xie Family. If no one helps you, it won’t be easy for you to get out. Although you are quite a fighter, you can’t defeat a state department on your own. And it is not difficult for him to set you up.”

After finishing talking, Ye Xinyi looked Xiao Bing in the eye. She seemed quite confident. First, she eased Xiao Bing’s hostility with only a few words. Then she illustrated the risk for Xiao Bing with a warning. She thought there wouldn’t be any reason for Xiao Bing to refuse her.

Now Xiao Bing understood Ye Xinyi’s purpose. If she just asked him directly, he would have agreed for Yezi’s sake. However, she was too conceited. She took Chang Huai’an’s arrest as a bargaining chip and turned her plea into a half-threat. And ever since he was a kid, Xiao Bing hated being threatened.

So Xiao Bing shook his head and said, “Sorry, I can’t help you with this.”

Right after that, Xiao Bing left the room. He had already lost his patience to talk to this proud woman.

Ye Xinyi was astonished. When she grew up, there was nothing she couldn’t have. However, this man turned her down. Looking at Xiao Bing’s back, Ye Xinyi got a bit angry. But soon her anger turned into a burning passion; she would conquer this man!

Xiao Bing returned to the hall followed by Ye Xinyi. Since Ye Xinyi showed up, Su Xiaoxiao had been admiring her nobleness and beauty. Even though she knew she was pretty since she was little, she found that Ye Xinyi’s beauty had drawn away everyone’s attention. It was something that an ordinary woman could never have.

After Xiao Bing returned to the hall, Su Xiaoxiao stopped thinking about those messy things. She looked to Xiao Bing and said with a worried voice, “Brother Bing, you can’t go with them.”

Xiao Bing smiled slightly and looked at the door. Many people were watching from outside. There was a young man who was tender and fair in the crowd. With a hint of trust, Xiao Bing and the young man looked at each other in the eye. Then Xiao Bing looked to Chang Huai’an, offered his hands, and asked with a smile, “Are you gonna arrest me?”

The policeman beside Chang Huai’an took out a pair of handcuffs and walked towards Xiao Bing.

Xiao Bing didn’t seem to care and still stared at Chang Huai’an. He said smiling, “Director Chang, I admire officers who enforce the law impartially. But I despise those who take advantage of their position to do bad things. I suppose you are aware of which kind of person you are.”

Chang Huai’an panicked a bit.

Xiao Bing continued and said calmly, “But I need to warn you about something.”

“What?”

“It’s okay to arrest me. But, please keep in mind… If I’m going to jail, you’re going to hell.”

With a click, Xiao Bing got cuffed.

Xiao Bing’s confident and disdainful expression in his eyes made Chang Huai’an irritated. He pointed at Xiao Bing and angrily said, “Take him away!”

Xiao Bing grinned and walked ahead. Even in a pair of handcuffs, he still seemed impressive. It was as if the policemen escorting him were all mole crickets and ants, and he was a giant standing among them.

After walking out of the restaurant, Xiao Bing looked back to Su Xiaoxiao who seemed hesitant to say anything and laughed in an unrestrained way, “Don’t tell Aunt Li. I will be back in two days, tops!”

That was a vow and a challenge to Chang Huai’an and Xie Lun.

After hearing what Xiao Bing said, Chang Huai’an suddenly started to feel regret and fear. For him, Xiao Bing’s confidence was way too abnormal.

If I’m going to jail, you’re going to hell?

Chang Huai’an clenched his fists tightly. Since he had already pissed Xiao Bing off, he might as well kill him. Now that he got Xiao Bing in jail, there was no way for him to leave alive.

As the dignified director of a police station, Chang Huai’an was going to murder him!
