Chapter 193 I Am the Reason

Mu Gaofeng, already disoriented from the beating, shook his head, trying to clear his mind.

He was also somewhat angered by the beating and furiously said, "Sima Wei, you're going too far, actually interfering with our Special Intelligence Bureau's case.

Ye Bufan is just an ordinary young doctor, so what if we want to arrest him? Do we still need to report to your Xuanyuan Pavilion?"

"An ordinary person? Who gave you the courage to say such a thing?"

Sima Wei shouted with full Aura, "Don't say he's a doctor; even if he were a beggar, as long as he's the man Miss Sima favors, he's destined not to be an ordinary person, and certainly not someone you trash can touch."

"You…"

Mu Gaofeng sobered up a bit and, thinking of the other party's identity, his expression froze. "Sima Wei, I'm telling you, this operation was approved by my Master."

He had no choice; this woman was simply too overbearing, so he could only bring out his Master.

"Wu Ze, that Old thing? Call him right now; I want to see what he says."

"This…"

Mu Gaofeng hesitated for a moment but eventually made the call, hoping this woman would at least give his Master some Face, otherwise, today's situation would truly be unmanageable.

As soon as the call connected, before he could even speak, Sima Wei snatched the phone and shouted into the receiver, "Old Man Wu, it's me, Sima Wei."

Wu Ze, who had originally thought Mu Gaofeng was calling to report on their success, was slightly taken aback upon hearing Sima Wei's name, then said with a beaming smile, "Miss Sima, how is it you? Is there something I can do for you?"

Although he was the head of the Special Intelligence Bureau in Jiangnan Province and had very strong backing above the Special Intelligence Bureau, he still couldn't compare to Sima Wei, meaning he couldn't afford to offend this woman either.

"What do you mean, 'something'? Ye Bufan is my man, and your brain-dead disciple actually brought people to arrest him! You must give me an explanation for this."

Even facing Wu Ze, Sima Wei's Aura showed no signs of diminishing.

"Miss Sima, this must be a misunderstanding. We didn't know Ye Bufan was connected to you. I'll have Mu Gaofeng give you an explanation right now."

Facing the assertive Sima Wei, despite his arrogance, Wu Ze could only choose to yield in the end, as the other party's background was simply too powerful.

Sima Wei raised her hand and tossed the phone back. Mu Gaofeng caught it and heard Wu Ze on the other end say, "We can't afford to offend this woman. Just bear with it, handle the situation, and we'll figure out what to do about that kid later."

With that, he hung up the phone.

Mu Gaofeng put away his phone, his heart cold. If Wu Ze told him to bear with it, what could he possibly do?

Sima Wei looked at him and said, "Well? What do you have to say now?"

Mu Gaofeng licked his dry lips and awkwardly said, "Miss Sima, I'm truly sorry. This time, I was wrong. I didn't investigate the situation clearly and didn't know Mr. Ye was your boyfriend. I apologize to you."

As he spoke, he glared fiercely at Guan Chao, blaming him for not having investigated Ye Bufan's background.

In fact, Guan Chao was wronged; it had been less than a dozen hours since Ye Bufan met Sima Wei and slept with her. Guan Chao, no matter how capable, couldn't have found that out.

Sima Wei said, "Apologizing to me is useless. You didn't offend me. Apologize to my man."

Mu Gaofeng was also from a prominent family and was very cunning. Since he had decided to yield, he would no longer drag his feet.

He bowed deeply to Ye Bufan. "I'm sorry, Mr. Ye. This time, I was wrong. I promise I will never compete with you for Chu Chu again."

While this guy spoke politely, he actually stabbed Ye Bufan in the back by bringing up Qin Chuchu during his apology.

In his opinion, Sima Wei kept saying Ye Bufan was her man. If she knew Ye Bufan was two-timing, she would probably explode immediately.

Ye Bufan was also startled, his muscles tensing, fearing that this woman would immediately go berserk after hearing Qin Chuchu's name.

Guan Chao secretly praised, his captain truly had good methods. Now, the guy named Ye was definitely in for it. He even prepared to watch the show.

But to everyone's surprise, Sima Wei showed no reaction after hearing the three words "Qin Chuchu," as if she hadn't heard anything at all.

Seeing this, Mu Gaofeng was utterly disappointed and could only say helplessly, "Miss Sima, Mr. Ye, if there's nothing else, we'll be leaving now."

With that, he prepared to lead his men away. Although he had completely lost Face this time, there was nothing he could do.

"Wait a moment."

Ye Bufan stopped Mu Gaofeng. "Who said you could leave?"

Mu Gaofeng said with a sullen Face, "Mr. Ye, I've already apologized."

"Is apologizing useful? If apologizing was useful, what would we need the police for?"

Ye Bufan said, then unceremoniously kicked him to the ground. "You come and go as you please, and you smashed my front door. You have to give me an explanation, don't you?"

"You…"

Being beaten in front of so many of his subordinates, Mu Gaofeng was furious, wishing he could order his men to shoot Ye Bufan directly. But looking at the menacing Sima Wei beside him, he ultimately held back.

"It's just a door, isn't it? I'll pay for it. Tell me, how much?"

When under someone else's roof, one has to bow their head. Mu Gaofeng ultimately chose to pay.

"That's right." Ye Bufan smiled playfully, "This door of mine cost 1 million yuan to install. You can compensate me 10 million."

"What? You want me to pay 10 million for a 1-million-yuan door? Is there any logic in that?"

Mu Gaofeng sprang up, furious. Although their He Family was rich, this was not how they spent money.

Ye Bufan smiled slightly, "Didn't Mu Team just say that strength is logic, and only fools talk logic?

I think that's very well said, so now I am logic. Not a single cent less than 10 million!"

"You…"

Mu Gaofeng was furious to death. Those words were indeed what he had just said, and he didn't expect them to come back to bite him so quickly. Since childhood, he had never been bullied like this before.

But before he could say anything, Sima Wei said coldly, "Stop dawdling. Are you going to pay or not?"

"I… I'll pay…"

Facing this woman, Mu Gaofeng ultimately chickened out.

If he didn't pay, he couldn't imagine what this fierce woman would do; perhaps even cripple his cultivation.

He pulled out his checkbook, quickly wrote a check for 10 million, and handed it to Ye Bufan, then left with his subordinates, looking utterly dejected.

When they arrived, they were full of Aura, looking incredibly impressive, but in the blink of an eye, they were beaten like pigs and left in a sorry state.

As he led the Special Intelligence Bureau members out the door, over a dozen cars approached from the opposite direction. At the front were the He Family patriarch, He Changqing, and He Tianqi.

The He Family father and son rushed over immediately after receiving the report from the security captain. If anything happened to Ye Bufan, their He Family would have to help no matter what.

However, they were unsure about facing the Special Intelligence Bureau, only hoping that the other party would give the He Family some Face.

But to their extreme surprise, when they arrived, Mu Gaofeng had already left with his men, and his head looked like a pig's, indicating he had been badly beaten.

In Jiangnan City, who dared to lay a hand on someone from the Special Intelligence Bureau and even beat their captain to such a state?
