Chen Xing frowned slightly. He didn't want to cause more trouble, but trouble had come knocking on his door.
Kid, if you want to meddle in other people's business, you should weigh yourself first. Yang Long brought his men to Zheng Jing's table and his gaze fell on Chen Xing.
Deputy Team Leader Chen, what are these people doing? Qin Minghua looked at Chen Xing in confusion. They still hadn't figured out what was going on.
It has something to do with my friend's matter. Chen Xing turned to look at Zheng Jing. At this moment, Zheng Jing had already stood up.
Yang Long, what are you trying to do? It's not like I'm not returning your money. What's the point of making a scene endlessly? Zheng Jing walked out and stood in front of Yang Long. She was afraid that if there was a conflict, Chen Xing would be at a disadvantage.
Pay me back then. I want it now. Yang Long laughed mockingly. He was certain that Zheng Jing couldn't pay him back.
The two of them were at each other's throats. Chen Xing couldn't be bothered to watch such a scene anymore. He gestured for Qin Minghua to call the police.
Yang Long wasn't afraid when he saw Qin Minghua calling the police. He snorted. Do you think calling the police will work? It's reasonable and legal for me to collect my debt. So what if the police come?
I didn't say that I won't return your money, but you know my family's current situation. What's the point of making a scene in such a public place? Zheng Jing said angrily.
It's not impossible for me to understand your situation. Didn't I say that if you agree to my conditions, I can extend the time limit as long as you want? Everything can be discussed. Yang Long laughed evilly.
Yang Long, you're shameless.
I'm just a little in love with you. How can that be called shameless? If I'm really shameless, then I'll be unscrupulous.
Zheng Jing glared at Yang Long angrily. She didn't know what else to say in the face of such a shameless man.
The street police station was not far from here, and the police arrived very quickly. However, the police did not play much of a role. Yang Long pulled a chair next to him and sat down. He pointed at Zheng Jing and said calmly, "Police comrade, she owes me money, and I'm asking her to pay for it. This is not illegal, right?"
The leader of the team was a policeman in his thirties. When he heard Yang Long's words, he turned to look at Zheng Jing. Seeing that Zheng Jing did not deny it, the policeman pursed his lips. Then who was the one who called the police? Don't call the police for no reason. The police resources are limited. You're wasting public resources.
When Chen Xing heard the policeman's words, he frowned slightly. However, he soon relaxed. The policeman's words were not very pleasant to hear, but he was not wrong. A street police station did not have many police officers, but they were responsible for the security of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people, as well as all kinds of emergencies. Sometimes, many police officers were indeed unable to attend to two things at the same time. Perhaps because they were dispatched here, another case might be delayed on the other side. Although this was only a hypothesis, it could really happen. Therefore, what the policeman said was not wrong.
Comrade, this is a public place, but this person is making a ruckus here and is affecting others. Qin Minghua said aloud.
Kid, how can you say that? What does it have to do with you that I'm collecting debts from others? How is it affecting you? Watch your mouth. Yang Long stared at Qin Minghua with a threatening look in his eyes.
This is a public place. You're affecting public order by making a ruckus here. Qin Minghua raised his eyebrows and looked straight at Yang Long. When he saw the hidden warning in Yang Long's eyes, Qin Minghua shook his head. In this day and age, there was always a shortage of people who thought they were great.
The policeman who led the team saw that there was nothing urgent at all and was not in the mood to stay here any longer. He said, "Since it's a debt dispute, you guys should discuss it properly. This is a public place, so don't make a ruckus."
"Comrade, can you please ask these people to leave? They're here to cause trouble on purpose." Qin Minghua continued.
When the policeman heard this, he smacked his lips and looked at Qin Minghua helplessly. The look in his eyes undoubtedly gave Qin Minghua an answer. This was impossible. Yang Long and the others did not break the law or cause trouble here, so they had no right to ask them to leave.
It's better for you to ask the owner of this cafe for this request. When the policeman finished speaking, he was about to lead the team away. When Qin Minghua saw this, he frowned and turned to look at Chen Xing. He looked at Chen Xing for his opinion. When he saw Chen Xing nod, Qin Minghua stood up and walked quickly toward the policeman.
Qin Minghua took out his ID and his expression turned serious. We need a quiet environment to handle this matter. Please cooperate with us.
The policeman took Qin Minghua's ID with some doubt. When he opened it, his pupils shrank and he looked at Qin Minghua with a look of disbelief and awe.
Alright, I'll get rid of them immediately. The policeman returned the ID to Qin Minghua respectfully.
Thank you. Qin Minghua smiled and nodded. He did not put on a condescending attitude.
The policeman waved his hand and walked toward Yang Long. His face was sullen and he pointed at Yang Long and the others. "You guys, leave this place."
"Why? What law did we break by staying here?" Yang Long was just feeling smug. Now that the situation had changed, he was also a little dumbfounded. He glared at the policeman in front of him.
"I told you to leave, so leave. Why are you talking so much nonsense?" The policeman reprimanded.
"Comrade policeman, you just said that this is a public place. Why can't we stay here?" "Even you don't have the right to ask us to leave." Yang Long snorted. He was not afraid of the policeman in front of him. As a businessman, who didn't have some connections? He also knew a few officials. Although their positions were not high, it was enough for him to not be afraid of a small policeman in front of him.
"Stop talking nonsense and leave quickly." The policeman urged with an unfriendly expression. "If you continue to cause trouble here, believe it or not, I'll detain you for a few days for disrupting public order."
"If you have the ability …" Yang Long was about to say something when a companion behind him suddenly pulled him and said in a low voice, "Brother Yang, there's no need to go against the police. You can ask Zheng Jing for money anytime. At most, you can go to her house at night. That would be more useful. There's no benefit in going against the police now."
Yang Long was stunned and swallowed the words he wanted to say. The person beside him was indeed right. Even if he had some connections, it was really not worth it to go against the police. Every time he used his connections, he would have one less favor to owe him. It was not worth wasting it on such a lousy matter.
"Alright, I'll leave." Yang Long stood up and glanced at Qin Minghua's face. He saw that the policeman had suddenly changed his attitude after Qin Minghua showed him something. At this moment, he was a little puzzled.
Before leaving, Yang Long turned to look at Zheng Jing and smiled sinisterly. "Zheng Jing, let's forget about it for now. I'll go to your house tonight to collect the debt."
"Yang, don't go too far." Zheng Jing was so angry that her whole body was trembling.
Yang Long saw Zheng Jing's expression and grinned. Then, he left proudly.
Seeing that Yang Long and the others had left, the policeman looked at Qin Minghua with a face full of smiles. "I've chased them away. Do you have any other instructions?"
"Nothing else." Qin Minghua shook his head.
The policeman heard this and nodded. He really wanted to stay and see what the inspection team was doing. Seeing that Qin Minghua did not say anything, he did not dare to stay any longer. He brought his men and left. In his heart, he was already thinking of rushing back to the station to tell the higher-ups that the inspection team had actually come to Yun Tian. This was a big matter.
Everything returned to normal. Zheng Jing walked back to her seat. Tan Wenlan asked Zheng Jing to continue from where she had just left off so that she could take notes. Zheng Jing nodded in agreement. As she narrated, she was a little distracted. Her eyes glanced at Chen Xing, Qin Minghua, Jiang Haijun, Tan Wenlan, and the others. Finally, her gaze stopped on Chen Xing. Her heart was filled with doubts. What did this old classmate whom she had not contacted after graduation do?
After Zheng Jing finished talking about her husband, Tan Wenlan took notes and said to Chen Xing, "Deputy Team Leader Chen, I've finished recording."
"Hmm." Chen Xing nodded slightly. He looked at Zheng Jing and smiled. "Zheng Jing, don't go to the Municipal Government again. It's useless. As long as what you said is true, I will definitely help you if I can."
"Chen Xing, what I said is the truth. It can stand up to investigation." Zheng Jing said anxiously.
"Zheng Jing, don't worry. Evil will not prevail over good." Chen Xing comforted her. He looked at the time and said, "How about this? I still have something to do later. Let's leave it at that for now. Let's have dinner together tonight.
Tonight? " "No problem." Zheng Jing nodded. She looked at the few people beside Chen Xing. She had a lot of questions in her heart, but it was not convenient for her to ask them now.
Chen Xing sent Zheng Jing downstairs and watched her leave. Then, he turned his head and asked Qin Minghua and the others, "What's the progress in the morning?"
"There's been a lot of progress. The most important item on this bill is the purchase of raw materials. We went to visit the building materials market. There is indeed a huge discrepancy. The purchase price is several times higher than the market price. Just on the purchase alone, there are tens of millions of loopholes." Qin Minghua said.
"Oh yes, we also heard that Li Yuan is now in the Provincial Capital and not in Yuntian."
Qin Xing was deep in thought when he heard that. He was silent for a moment and said. "In that case, we can all return to the Provincial Capital directly."
"Yes, according to the current situation, we can directly control Li Yuan. Then, we can follow the lead of Li Yuan's investigation and everything will be clear." Qin Minghua nodded.
"We can't decide whether we will directly intervene in the investigation or transfer the case to the local authorities." Chen Xing smiled. "Let's report to the higher-ups first."
