Chapter 172: Eager to Save His Son

Ye Bufan first raised his hands, then looked back and, upon seeing Ouyang Da, said, "Are you holding a personal grudge?"

Ouyang Da shouted, "Less nonsense! You are suspected of a major case and must come back with me for questioning."

Ye Bufan smiled and said, "You need a charge to arrest me, right?"

"You'll find out when we get to the Public Security Bureau."

"What if I don't go?"

Ouyang Da snarled, "If you dare to resist arrest, I'll shoot you on sight."

Ye Bufan said, "Shoot me? Do you dare?"

"What's there not to dare? Cuff him for me. If he resists in the slightest, shoot him immediately."

As Ouyang Da spoke, he waved his hand, and immediately two Public Security Bureau officers rushed forward with handcuffs.

Ye Bufan did not resist; instead, he submissively extended his hands.

It wasn't out of fear of Ouyang Da; at such close range, a gun couldn't harm him. The reason he did this was to set a trap.

He was thoroughly disgusted with the Ouyang Family members now, and with Ouyang Lan present, he couldn't kill them. Now that they were actively seeking trouble, sending these people to prison to spend the rest of their lives was the best option.

Ouyang Da, however, was unaware of this. A smug smile appeared on his lips. "So what if you're amazing? So what if you know many important people? You're still being handled obediently by me."

He waved to his subordinates, "Take him away."

Several people escorted Ye Bufan into the police car, and they sped away from the hotel.

No sooner had they left than the Ouyang Family members emerged from a corner.

Ouyang Shan said viciously, "This bastard was finally dealt with by Cousin!"

Ouyang Duo said, "This is good. Now that he's in Cousin's hands, no matter how powerful he is, he won't be able to stir up any trouble."

Ouyang De said, "Alright, let's hurry upstairs and quickly ask Ouyang Lan for money."

Ouyang Lan was sitting on the sofa watching TV when she suddenly heard a knock at the door. Thinking her son had forgotten something, she casually opened the door. Upon seeing Ouyang De and the others, she said in surprise, "Why are you here?"

"What, not welcome?"

Ouyang De pushed Ouyang Lan aside and walked in. After looking around the room, he said, "You two are really extravagant, staying in a presidential suite. It must cost a lot of chinese yuan a day, right?"

Ouyang Lan angrily said, "What does that have to do with you? I already said we've cut ties."

"Cut ties? You wish!"

"Ouyang Zhi said, "You took so much money from our Ouyang Family. Now you want to cut ties? It's not that easy!"

"Nonsense! All my money was earned by Xiao Fan. What does it have to do with you?" Ouyang Lan pointed to the door and said, "Get out of here quickly, or Xiao Fan will be back soon."

She was being sincere. Although she didn't want to see these Ouyang Family members again, she also didn't want to see Ye Bufan get into a conflict with them.

"You're trying to scare us with your son, are you? I'm telling you, it won't work anymore!"

Ouyang Shan said as she opened her phone and pulled up a video, "Look at this."

Ouyang Lan took a look. The video showed Ye Bufan being handcuffed and taken away.

Ouyang Cheng said smugly, "See? Your son is about to go to jail, and you're still threatening us with him."

Ouyang Lan first saw Ye Bufan, then saw Ouyang Da next to him, and immediately said angrily to Ouyang De, "You actually let Ouyang Da arrest my son?"

Ouyang De said with a triumphant expression, "Now you know to be afraid, right? I'm telling you, my son is now the director of the Public Security Bureau. You people can't afford to provoke him."

Ouyang Lan rushed forward and grabbed his collar, "You ungrateful wretch! Release my son immediately, or I'll fight you to the death!"

Ouyang De pushed her away, "What are you doing? I'm telling you, if you keep this up, your son will never get out in his life."

Ouyang Lan fell onto the sofa, tears streaming down her face, unable to accept the news of Ye Bufan's arrest.

Ouyang Zhi said triumphantly, "What, now you're scared? Now you regret it? Weren't you very arrogant a few days ago?"

"You bastard." Ouyang Lan was almost driven mad by these Disciple, but she also knew that now was not the time to lose her temper.

She took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and said, "Tell me, what will it take for you to release my son?"

Ouyang De laughed, "That's right. When you need to bow your head, you should. That's the attitude for discussing things."

Ouyang Zhi said, "It's simple to release Ye Bufan. First, hand over the money you took from our Ouyang Family."

Ouyang Cheng said, "The demolition compensation for our Ouyang Family old house, and the treasure chest you got from Mom, must all be returned to us in full."

Ouyang Lan angrily said, "Mom was penniless when she left, only leaving behind that old house. Where would there be any treasure chest?"

Ouyang Shan said, "You're still refusing to admit it now? If there wasn't

"If there wasn't any treasure left by my grandmother, how did you get rich?"

Ouyang Lan said, "All the money was earned by Xiao Fan."

Ouyang Zhi said disdainfully, "Who are you trying to fool? He's just a bastard who hasn't even graduated from college. What ability does he have to earn so much money?"

Ouyang De said, "We're too lazy to argue with you. How about this: return the 10 million chinese yuan relocation compensation, then give each of us 10 million chinese yuan, plus transfer the Zui Jiangnan Grand Restaurant to our name, and this matter will be settled."

"That's impossible!" Ouyang Lan said, "I don't have that much money, and besides, the Zui Jiangnan Grand Restaurant is Xiao Fan's property. What right do I have to transfer it to you?"

Ouyang Zhi said, "Then how much money do you have?"

Ouyang Lan took out a bank card and said, "This is 1 million chinese yuan Xiao Fan gave me. I don't have any more than that."

"Are you trying to give alms to a beggar?" Ouyang De snatched the bank card and put it into his pocket, then said, "How about this, you first write us an IOU for 100 million chinese yuan, and then your son can pay it back later."

Ouyang Cheng said, taking out several A4 papers and slapping them on the table, "The IOU is already prepared for you. Hurry up and sign it."

"100 million chinese yuan? That's too much. I can't sign this."

Although Ouyang Lan was anxious to save her son, the sum of 100 million was too frightening.

"You won't sign, huh? Then just wait for your son to rot in jail!" Ouyang De waved his hand, "Since you value money more than life, then let's go."

With that, the Ouyang Family members started to walk towards the door, confident that Ouyang Lan would eventually give in.

Sure enough, Ouyang Lan quickly stopped them. No matter what, she had to save her son first.

"Can you guarantee that if I sign, you'll release my son?"

A smug, cold smile appeared on Ouyang Zhi's lips: "Of course. We want money; what use is your son to us?"

Ouyang De said, "Xiao Da is my son. With just one phone call from me, Ye Bufan can be released immediately."

Ouyang Lan gritted her teeth, "Then I'll sign."

At this moment, she made up her mind. Even if she had to sell the Zui Jiangnan Grand Restaurant, she couldn't let her son stay in prison for even a day. At worst, she would go back to selling steamed buns.

As she spoke, she took the pen Ouyang Zhi handed her, ready to sign the IOU.

"Wait, don't sign!"

With that loud shout, the door burst open with a bang, and Wang Jianfeng entered from outside with Tang Wenqi.
