After thinking for a moment, Xu Yu said, "I don't think anyone else knows I'm here, right?"
"No! No! I really didn't know it was you here. I thought only Miss Luo had been mistakenly arrested. Don't worry, no third person will know about this. I'll settle the score with those two later!" Upon hearing Xu Yu's words, He Hongyi was first taken aback, then overjoyed. It seemed Xu Yu didn't want this matter to spread. And rightly so, he had just been severely reprimanded by Secretary Xu. If this got back to Secretary Xu, it would certainly be disastrous. As long as Xu
Yu didn't spread it, he naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to go out and publicize it. After all, even if it did, it wouldn't be good for Xu Yu, but it would be a disaster for him as well.
"Alright, I should thank you for what happened earlier, otherwise I would have been in trouble." Hearing He Hongyi's assurance, Xu Yu was secretly delighted. To be honest, he really had to thank the man in front of him, otherwise he would have suffered a lot.
"No, no!" Xu Yu's thanks made He Hongyi break out in a cold sweat. He was secretly relieved that he had arrived in time and that nothing serious had happened. He also realized that the person in front of him had been in a bad situation recently, which was why he had deliberately concealed the matter; otherwise, he would have been in real trouble.
"Then I'll be going." Xu Yu glanced at He Hongyi again before quickly walking forward.
Once outside the interrogation room, he immediately saw Luo Xinying waiting not far away.
"You're alright? You're out?" Having waited there and witnessed Li Changlong and his companion leave in a disheveled manner, especially with a clear handprint on Li Changlong's face, Luo Xinying naturally understood what had happened.
But she hadn't expected Xu Yu to be released so quickly.
Logically, she had clearly told He Hongyi about her relationship with Xu Yu; even if he didn't dare to make a wrong judgment, he shouldn't have found out so quickly, right?
"Hehe, it's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding. It's been investigated and cleared up." Just as Luo Xinying was wondering, He Hongyi quickly caught up from behind. After glancing at Xu Yu, he explained with a smile.
This made her slightly uneasy. She really didn't believe they could investigate so quickly. Perhaps they hadn't even investigated, and only did so because Xu Yu was her friend.
Although she felt they hadn't investigated at all, and were only concerned for her, she didn't believe Xu Yu was a thief. So she still smiled and said to Xu Yu, "Let's go."
"Yes, thank you this time." Xu Yu nodded immediately. This time, he really had to thank Luo Xinying; otherwise, this matter would definitely have reached that person's ears. So his thanks were very sincere.
Afterwards, the two walked side by side out of the police station, waiting until they were completely outside. He Hongyi, who had been smiling obsequiously behind him, finally breathed a sigh of relief. But the next moment, his expression changed drastically, and he suddenly shouted to the side, "Call Li Changlong and Yang Song to my office!"
Yes, it was time to thoroughly understand the inner world of those two disabled people!
He seriously doubted that if they weren't mentally disabled, how could they believe that the son of the municipal party secretary and the daughter of the executive vice governor would be stealing on the street! And even get caught?
Soon, filled with rage, Li and Yang arrived at He Hongyi's office, trembling with fear.
As soon as they entered, the two immediately said to He Hongyi with mournful faces, "Director He, we were framed! If someone hadn't sworn they were thieves, we wouldn't have dared to do it!"
Although the two still didn't know the identities of the two men, just by looking at He Hongyi's behavior, they knew how much trouble they had caused, which naturally made them furious.
"Who tricked you?!" He Hongyi, his face contorted with rage, suddenly understood after hearing this. He couldn't fathom why the two would act so absurdly, except perhaps because they had been tricked themselves.
But this realization didn't diminish He Hongyi's anger; instead, it intensified. Because the other party hadn't tricked Li Changlong and his companion, but him, He Hongyi!
After all, even if Governor Luo and Secretary Xu investigated later, the first person they would look for would definitely be him, the one with a name and a reputation, not two ordinary policemen.
"Damn it! This isn't tricking you, it's tricking me! Which bastard said Governor Luo's daughter and… are thieves?!" Having fully grasped the situation, He Hongyi erupted in a tirade of curses.
His outburst caused the two previously terrified policemen to nearly collapse. What? Governor Luo's daughter? Good heavens, they finally realized how outrageous and absurd their actions had been.
"Director He? That Xu Yu?" Although he was almost scared out of his wits, Yang Song managed to stay calm and looked at He Hongyi. Only they knew the truth. Initially, Lü Guangchen hadn't ordered them to arrest Luo Xinying, but judging from He Hongyi's tone, Xu Yu seemed to be no simple character either.
"Xu Yu? Heh! You'd better not know! Even if you do, keep it to yourselves. If word gets out, the three of us will be fired! Damn it, to believe someone like that is a thief? That's utterly ridiculous!!" Yang Song's question only fueled He Hongyi's rage.
However, in his fury, He Hongyi had to emphasize Xu Yu's importance. Indeed, while he couldn't reveal Xu Yu's identity to Li and Yang, what if they recognized him later? After all, Xu Yu was also from Ningcheng and the First Prince. It wasn't unusual for him to encounter such coincidences. If these two were to spread the news, wouldn't he be disobeying Xu Yu's instructions? That would definitely be another disaster.
As the other party spoke of Xu Yu with a tone even more fearful than Luo Xinying, Li Changlong and his companion gasped again, their bodies starting to weaken. My God, was one Governor Luo not enough? Was the real person so terrifying?
Just then, a cell phone rang from Li Changlong's body.
This startled all three of them. Li Changlong then pulled out his phone, and upon seeing the caller ID, he instantly flew into a rage, his forehead and eyebrows turning bloodshot. Almost in tears, he choked out, "Director He, it's him! He's the one who screwed us over! Don't worry, I'll risk my life to make sure this kid never has a moment's peace!"
These words completely agitated He Hongyi and Yang Song, who had previously shown slight surprise. However, their agitation was nothing short of a violent outburst fueled by gritted teeth.
Meanwhile, in the office, the six pairs of eyes fixed on the phone gleamed with a predatory, wolfish light.
Ningcheng, Huai Shui District, at the end of a secluded alley, a gloomy and depressed Lü Guangchen was completely unaware of the events unfolding at the Public Security Bureau. He was simply holding his phone, dejectedly dialing Li Changlong's number.
"Damn it, we've searched everywhere but can't find the wallet. Looks like it was lost in the downtown area. Now, there's no way we'll ever find it. That wretched guy, even if it costs more money, I'll make sure Li Changlong and his gang really take him down!" After a moment of ferocious muttering, a hint of surprise appeared in Lü Guangchen's eyes. What the hell? Why hasn't Li Changlong answered the phone yet?
