Chapter 293: What an Awesome Identity

“This…”

Tian Sheng was dumbfounded, his face blank, fully expecting the master his elder brother had sent to deal with Ye Bufan easily. He never thought he would be defeated so quickly by this big guy.

Gao Daqiang finished off Vulture and then strode towards Tian Sheng.

“What are you doing? Don't come over here!”

Tian Sheng's face turned pale with fright. He kept backing away until he hit the pillar behind him.

Just then, another set of footsteps sounded from the stairwell. Immediately after, someone shouted, “Don't move! Everyone, behave yourselves.”

Everyone looked towards the stairwell and saw seven or eight police officers rushing up. The leader was a young police officer around 30 years old.

Tian Sheng immediately recognized the newcomer: Zhang Haibin, the Deputy Director of the East District Police Station, an old friend of his elder brother, Tian Pojun.

“Director Zhang, you’re finally here! These guys injured my subordinates. Quickly arrest them.”

After speaking, he pointed to Vulture nearby, “Look, they beat him up like this. They must be severely punished.”

Xia Zihan shouted, “Are you still talking about reason? You clearly barged into the restaurant to cause trouble. My son was acting in self-defense.”

Zhang Haibin was there to help the Tian Family, so he wouldn't listen to her explanation. He immediately shouted, “How dare you argue after hitting someone? Arrest them all!”

He turned to Tian Sheng and said, “Who all were involved?”

The meaning of his words was already very clear: Zhang Haibin would arrest whoever Tian Sheng said to.

Tian Sheng naturally understood. He raised his hand and pointed at Ye Bufan, Gao Daqiang, and even included Gao Jiajun.

“All of them were involved. Arrest them all.”

Zhang Haibin waved his hand at his subordinates, “Did you hear that? Arrest these madmen who intentionally caused harm.”

Gao Jiajun was leaning against Xia Zihan, enjoying himself. Seeing these people causing trouble again, he immediately puffed out his chest and shouted, “I'd like to see who dares! Do you know who I am?”

But before he could finish speaking, Ye Bufan's voice sounded in his ear again, “Let them arrest us. Otherwise, today's matter isn't over yet.”

Zhang Haibin sneered, “Old Man, then tell me, who are you?”

With Ye Bufan's hint, Gao Jiajun didn't reveal his own identity. Instead, he pointed at Xia Zihan and said, “I am her man, my son’s father!”

“What a powerful identity, you almost scared me to death.” Zhang Haibin smiled disdainfully, “Hurry up and act, handcuff them all.”

Seven or eight police officers swarmed forward and handcuffed all three of them, including Ye Bufan.

Although Gao Daqiang was formidable, he held back under Ye Bufan's restraining gaze and allowed them to handcuff him.

Zhang Haibin waved his hand, “Take them all away!”

Seeing that these people were all arrested, Xia Zihan hurriedly shouted, “You… by what right are you arresting people? Quickly release my son!”

However, she was just an ordinary woman and dared not do anything in front of the fierce-looking police officers.

Zhang Haibin shouted, “What are you yelling about? If you weren't a woman, I'd arrest you too.”

After speaking, he led the group downstairs. Xia Zihan was about to chase after them when Ye Bufan's voice sounded in her ear, “Aunt Zihan, don't come. It's useless to come.

Go find Mayor Zhu for help. Otherwise, we'll really be finished. Go now, the sooner the better.”

“Oh!”

Xia Zihan knew she couldn't do anything. After Zhang Haibin and the others left, she immediately rushed to Mayor Zhu's residence.

Upon reaching the gate, two guards stopped her and asked, “What are you doing? Who are you looking for?”

“I'm looking for Mayor Zhu.”

“Do you have an appointment?”

“No, but my son has been arrested.” Xia Zihan said urgently, “So I need to see Mayor Zhu to ask for his help.”

The guard chuckled, “Are you out of your mind? Your son gets arrested and you look for the Mayor? If everyone was like you, would the Mayor ever get any work done?”

“I…”

Xia Zihan also knew that her reason was a bit flimsy. After a moment of hesitation, she said, “His father was also arrested with the child.”

“So what?” The guard said disdainfully, “Hurry up and leave. Don't cause trouble here.”

Xia Zihan bit her lip. At this point, she could only bring up Gao Jiajun's name. She said, “My man is Gao Jiajun, the Hong Kong jewelry magnate Gao Jiajun.”

“What? What did you say?”

The guard looked her up and down and said, “Are you mentally unstable? How could Gao Jiajun be your man?”

Xia Zihan said urgently, “It's hard to explain in a few words. Please inform him, I want to see Mayor Zhu.”

The guard said, “No, the Mayor isn't someone you can just see whenever you want.”

Xia Zihan shouted, “Please, I'm really in a hurry…”

“Even if you're in a hurry, no…”

The two were arguing when a Young man walked over. It was Secretary Zhang, Mayor Zhu's secretary.

Seeing Xia Zihan, he asked, “What's going on? Why are you arguing here?”

The guard hurriedly said, “Secretary Zhang, this person insists on seeing Mayor Zhu and also claims she's Gao Jiajun's wife.”

Secretary Zhang looked Xia Zihan up and down and said, “Who exactly are you? I've met Gao Jiajun's wife, and it's not you.”

“It's like this, Gao Jiajun is my son’s father!”

Xia Zihan didn't express herself very clearly at the moment.

Secretary Zhang said, “What nonsense. Hurry up and leave. This isn't the place for you to cause trouble.”

Xia Zihan said urgently, “Gao Jiajun really is my man. Ye Bufan told me to come.”

“Ye Bufan?” Secretary Zhang was about to leave, but after hearing those three words, he turned back and asked, “Are you talking about Dr. Ye?”

“Yes, it's him. He was also arrested by the Police Station. Before he left, he told me to come find Mayor Zhu.”

Secretary Zhang was very aware of Ye Bufan's standing with Zhu Yucheng. Hearing that he had also been arrested, he quickly brought Xia Zihan to see Zhu Yucheng.

Upon entering the office, Secretary Zhang said, “Mayor, this woman says Dr. Ye has been arrested and wants to see you.”

Zhu Yucheng was looking at a document. Hearing this, he immediately put it down and asked, “Madam, what exactly is going on? Please explain clearly.”

Xia Zihan quickly recounted the events and her relationship with Gao Jiajun, finally saying, “I don't know who those people were.

Anyway, later the police arrested Xiao Fan, my man, and my son. Xiao Fan told me to come find you before he left.”

“What? You said the police not only arrested Ye Bufan but also Gao Jiajun?”

Zhu Yucheng shot up from behind his desk. He had been overjoyed that Gao Jiajun agreed to invest 20 billion in Jiangnan City and was preparing for tomorrow's investment launch ceremony.

But now the man was arrested. If this Hong Kong magnate were truly angered and withdrew the 20 billion investment, it would be a loss for the entire Jiangnan City.

Furthermore, Ye Bufan was his savior. He had just promised that Ye Bufan would not suffer any grievances in Jiangnan City, yet in the blink of an eye, he was arrested and taken to the Police Station. Wasn't this a slap in his face?

He asked, “Do you know where they were arrested?”

Xia Zihan said, “I heard it was by people from the East District Police Station.”

Zhu Yucheng, with a gloomy expression, said to Secretary Zhang, “Prepare the car immediately and come with me to the East District Police Station. Also, call Wang Jianfeng and tell him to come along.”
