The Crazy Son-In-Law

After ending his conversation with Ye Nantian and Jiang Jian, Xiao Shun took his leave.

As he walked to the street, he hailed a car and headed towards the Eastbrook Office.

His purpose was simple; he wanted to talk to He Tianlong!

On the way, without a word, a massive office building came into view.

“Sir, may I help you with anything?” A security guard at the gate kindly asked Xiao Shun.

With a slight smile, Xiao Shun replied, “I’m here to see Inspector He.”

Upon hearing this, the guard assessed him and shook his head.

“The Inspector is busy with official duties. If you don’t have an appointment, I can’t let you in.”

“That’s fine. Just let him know that Xiao Shun is here to see him,” Xiao Shun replied casually.

The guard hesitated for a moment. Even though the young man in front of him was unassuming, his demeanor was extraordinary. As a longtime office worker, he had seen all kinds of people and still had some discernment.

After contemplating for a moment, the guard finally spoke, “Please wait. I’ll go and inform him for you.”

“Thank you.” Xiao Shun nodded and watched as the guard returned to the gate.

In less than the time it takes to smoke half a cigarette, the guard returned to him.

“Sir, go to the second floor. The Inspector is in his office.”

Xiao Shun nodded at him and walked towards the lobby of the office building.

Following the signs, he soon arrived at the door of an office on the second floor.

Looking at the words “Inspector’s Office” engraved on the door, Xiao Shun smiled faintly and knocked on the door.

“Come in!”

Soon, a robust voice came from inside.

Ordinary people usually wouldn’t have such a tone. Only those in high positions could have such an irresistible voice.

Entering the office, he saw a simple office of about ten square meters. The decorations were minimal, giving a sense of simplicity, and several calligraphy paintings hung on the walls.

But the most striking was the calligraphy hanging in the center, “Honesty and Integrity”!

The writing was vigorous and powerful, but the style was square inside and round outside. In Xiao Shun’s eyes, it seemed to lack sincerity.

At this moment, He Tianlong, sitting at the desk, spoke slowly, “Mr. Xiao, are you also fond of calligraphy?”

Xiao Shun smiled faintly, “I dabble in it.”

He Tianlong stood up and walked towards the sofa, saying, “I wonder what brings you here today.”

Xiao Shun smirked, “I just want to have a frank discussion with the leader of this office.”

With that, he sat down on the sofa and looked at He Tianlong.

“My price is set. What happens next is up to you.”

He Tianlong looked at him deeply and handed him a tea cup.

Lighting a cigarette, Xiao Shun nonchalantly said, “Clearly, I don’t agree with your price.”

He Tianlong sneered, then asked in a deep voice, “Did you injure my son last night?”

Dismissing the ash from his cigarette without concern, Xiao Shun replied casually, “Those who know me are aware that I don’t accept any threats. Unfortunately, your son didn’t believe that, so I had to teach him a lesson.”

His words were ambiguous, explaining the reason for the attack on He Junxian and also indicating the stance of his New School Society in Eastbrook City.

Having been in a high position for many years, He Tianlong knew the reasoning behind it.

But he thought that Xiao Shun was the kind of person who would easily compromise. His son was assaulted, and the perpetrator didn’t show any remorse, instead directly threatening him again.

Enough is enough.

At this thought, He Tianlong spoke decisively, “In that case, I promise that you won’t be able to do anything in Eastbrook. I will also crack down on all your dependencies in the area!”

“He Tianlong, sometimes it’s not good to be so self-righteous!”

Xiao Shun looked at him meaningfully, his smile full of playfulness.

Seeing this, He Tianlong picked up the teacup and took a sip before arrogantly saying, “In Eastbrook, everything is in my control. What can you do about it?”

Smiling at the cocky Inspector, Xiao Shun patted his leg.

“The reason I came here today is simply to have a good talk with you. If you want to act recklessly, don’t blame me for not showing mercy!”Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

With that, Xiao Shun’s gaze shifted to the calligraphy on the wall. After a moment, he shook his head and said, “The words are good, but the heart behind them is not so good.”

“What do you mean?” He Tianlong frowned.

“Nothing.” Xiao Shun smiled lightly.

“Since Inspector He is unwilling to cooperate, it’s okay. We can always find another Inspector for Eastbrook. After all, there’s a shortage of everything in this world, except people!”

With a hint of rue, Xiao Shun got up and walked towards the office door.

Deep in thought, He Tianlong couldn’t help but feel anger rising within him at Xiao Shun’s earlier threat.

Soon, he stood up, gazing darkly at Xiao Shun’s back.

“You beat my son and now you want to leave like this?”

Halting his steps, Xiao Shun turned around nonchalantly and smiled. “How do you want to resolve this?”

“I know you have great martial abilities, but you’re too young to fight against us!”

With a smirk, He Tianlong clapped his hands, and instantly a team of people burst into the office. A middle-aged man in uniform walked up to Xiao Shun, and with a firm voice said, “Mr. Xiao, due to the unprovoked assault on a local person at the Sheraton Hotel yesterday, which resulted in disability, the local authorities want you to come back for further investigation.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Shun couldn’t help but look at He Tianlong and chuckled, “Is this your method?”

He Tianlong laughed heartily.

“Hehe, this is just the first step. There’s a lot more in store for you!”

“Are you blatantly targeting me?” Xiao Shun sighed.

“Enough talk. Come with us now for the investigation!”

The middle-aged man placed his hand on Xiao Shun’s shoulder and gestured to his men.

At this sight, the others hurriedly picked up a pair of gleaming handcuffs, ready to arrest Xiao Shun.

“Abuse of power?” Xiao Shun frowned, looking unfriendly.

The middle-aged man waved his hand to stop his men and walked up to Xiao Shun, smiling wryly.

“It’s better than cutting off people’s paths to fortune!”

Narrowing his eyes, Xiao Shun said slowly, “Are you deliberately targeting me?”

He Tianlong burst into hearty laughter, “Haha, so what if we are?”

“Very well!” Xiao Shun nodded and then changed the subject. “I have a feeling that we will meet again soon, and by then, you will probably be begging for my forgiveness. Trust me, my premonitions are always accurate!”

“Take him away!”

The middle-aged man waved his hand, and they escorted Xiao Shun out.

This time, Xiao Shun was not actually handcuffed. The earlier scene was just to show their authority. If they had actually done it, his men probably wouldn’t have been able to stand steadily!
