From Evil Sect Leader to Doctor-Chapter 406 - 380: Endless Troubles

After the two had left the scene, they saw three police cars arriving at the scene from across the street. The hundreds of onlookers had already dispersed. Pu Jian sighed and said, "The police response time is a bit too slow."

Xu Chunliang smiled indifferently, "You’re so keen to get into the police station?"

Pu Jian said, "Brother, today you’ve really stirred up a hornet’s nest. What kind of person do you think Wang Zeqiang is? Do you think he can swallow this down?"

Xu Chunliang said, "I don’t care what kind of person he is."

Pu Jian said, "How come Secretary Gao and the others have left?"

Xu Chunliang said, "We might not care about face, but the young lady does. What if someone recorded it and put it online, how would she face others in the future? I had Brother Chen take them away first."

Pu Jian sincerely admired Xu Chunliang’s consideration; he handled the matter with courage and wisdom. However, Pu Jian believed he still underestimated Wang Zeqiang’s ability, as such a person would definitely plot revenge afterward.

Xu Chunliang and Pu Jian parted ways at the junction ahead. He contacted Chen Qianfan, who had already sent Gao Xinhua and the others home and was just about to call him to ask about the situation.

Xu Chunliang told Chen Qianfan he was fine and asked him to go back and rest as soon as possible.

After hanging up the phone, he took a cab to Gao Xinyue’s community. On the way, he sent the video of him beating Wang Zeqiang to him. Gao Xinhua called to ask where he was, and upon hearing he was downstairs, he immediately went down to meet him.

Having watched the video of Xu Chunliang slapping Wang Zeqiang in public, Gao Xinhua felt a lot more at ease, but thinking about the trouble Xu Chunliang had caused for him, he couldn’t help but worry for him.

Xu Chunliang asked, "How’s Xiaobai?"

Gao Xinhua said, "She’s fine. They drank a lot of cold water, and they have regained consciousness. Fang Tian and I agreed to say they drank too much and didn’t dare to mention what happened just now."

Xu Chunliang said, "As long as they’re okay."

Gao Xinhua took out a pack of cigarettes, pulled one out, and handed it to Xu Chunliang, forgetting in his chaotic state that Xu Chunliang doesn’t smoke.

Xu Chunliang took out a lighter to light it for him, and Gao Xinhua only then realized he had muddled things up. Taking a puff, he asked, "Did the police come?"

Xu Chunliang said, "They came, but by the time they did, everyone had dispersed, and that guy had escaped."

Gao Xinhua gritted his teeth and said, "Scum!" Even now, he was filled with fear; if it weren’t for his daughter sending her location while she was still conscious, and if they hadn’t arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Taking a drag on his cigarette, he slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, trying to release the resentment pent up in his chest: "Chunliang, will tonight’s events cause you trouble?"

Xu Chunliang smiled, "Don’t worry. I have plenty of ways to deal with such despicable people. Uncle Gao, remind Xiaobai that it’s important to be cautious of others."

Gao Xinhua nodded. If this young man could become his son-in-law, it would be a blessing for his daughter. What about Shuimu? Even if his grades were excellent, so what? Society is the real test. In most people’s eyes, his daughter was more outstanding than Xu Chunliang, but Gao Xinhua didn’t think so. After tonight’s incident, he increasingly felt that Xu Chunliang was truly capable and responsible, a remarkable young man who is hard to come by.

At this time, Pu Jian called and told Xu Chunliang that, so far, there was no news about the OMMIA Bar incident online. Many people filmed it at the scene, which proves that someone took preemptive action to control the spread of information. The power of Wang Zeqiang’s family was evident.

Pu Jian urged Xu Chunliang to be more cautious and suggested that it would be best for him to leave the Capital City early to avoid the limelight.

Xu Chunliang knew Pu Jian was looking out for him, but he wasn’t afraid. It was Wang Zeqiang who should be afraid.

Xu Chunliang returned to Dongzhou Restaurant, and while he was showering, his phone rang. When he picked up the phone, it turned out to be Hua Zhuyue.

Since Xu Chunliang returned to Dongzhou, they hadn’t been in touch for a while. Calling at this time must mean something urgent.

Xu Chunliang answered the phone and said, "Sister Hua, what can I do for you?"

Hua Zhuyue said, "Where are you?"

Xu Chunliang laughed, "Why? Do you miss me?"

Hua Zhuyue retorted, "I’m not joking with you. Where exactly are you now?"

Xu Chunliang said, "Capital City."

Hua Zhuyue said, "Did you go to OMMIA Bar tonight?"

Xu Chunliang was surprised that this had reached Hua Zhuyue. Could OMMIA Bar also be part of the Blue Star Group? Xu Chunliang said, "Is this bar also part of your group?"

Hua Zhuyue said, "It’s part of He Dong Group. The person you hit is Wang Zeqiang, his father is the president of Hua Tou, and you’ve gotten yourself into big trouble this time."

Xu Chunliang said, "Sister Hua, you don’t know the truth about this matter."

"No one cares about the truth. I just know you should leave the Capital City quickly. I don’t know how many people are looking for you worldwide. To please Wang Zeqiang, they’ll attack you without hesitation."

Xu Chunliang smiled and asked, "Will you attack me?"

"I’m not joking with you. Pan Tianhua of He Dong has been trying to please the Wang family. This happened on his turf, and he will definitely demand an explanation."

Xu Chunliang said, "What’s meant to come will come eventually. If they’re so powerful, it wouldn’t make a difference whether I stay or leave."

Hua Zhuyue said, "The waters in the Capital City are too deep. Wang Zeqiang is not Tang Tianyi."

Xu Chunliang said, "It makes no difference; they’re all scum! I have plenty of ways to deal with scum."

Hua Zhuyue sighed and said, "Just be careful."

Early the next morning, Mo Han arrived on time to pick up Xu Chunliang and Zheng Peian.

Zheng Peian wasn’t meeting Mo Han for the first time. He greeted her and then went to the back seat to nap. He knew better than to interrupt the young people’s conversation.

Mo Han said, "You’re quite impressive!"

Upon hearing her tone, Xu Chunliang knew that she already knew about last night’s events.

Xu Chunliang laughed and said, "Good news doesn’t leave the house, but bad news travels a thousand miles."

Mo Han said, "Have you ever done anything good?"

Xu Chunliang glanced back. Zheng Peian had his eyes closed, seemingly asleep, but from his breathing, Xu Chunliang could tell he was pretending.

Xu Chunliang said, "Feeling the pressure?"

Mo Han candidly said, "The trouble you caused this time is too big, even President Luan can’t cover for you."

Xu Chunliang blinked. He originally thought the night had passed peacefully, maybe Wang Zeqiang valued his reputation and wouldn’t bother him, but what was bound to come still came. Mo Han’s meaning was clear; the other party had already investigated his background, placing pressure on Luan Yuchuan.

Xu Chunliang said, "Don’t worry, at worst I’ll drop out of school, I won’t drag you all into this."

Mo Han said, "You’re not an irrational person, you shouldn’t have acted without planning an escape route first."

Xu Chunliang laughed loudly and said, "You seem to know me well. I’m not rational at all, and I tend to act impulsively when things happen."

Mo Han said, "Do you know Wang Zeqiang’s background?"

Xu Chunliang leisurely said, "No matter how mighty, people can’t escape death."

Mo Han glanced at him briefly from the corner of her eye. With what she knew of Xu Chunliang, he would definitely have a backup plan for himself, and she softly said, "In such a big Capital City, you picked someone from the Wang Family to hit. Now someone is caught in a dilemma."

Xu Chunliang heard the double meaning in her words, "What do you mean?"

Mo Han actually laughed, "I’ll tell you a secret, the Wang Family and the Qiao Family are in-laws. Wang Zeqiang is the beloved son of Qiao Rulong’s maternal uncle Wang Jingxuan."

This stunned Xu Chunliang. He knew little about Mei Ru Xue’s family situation, only that Qiao Rulong and Mei Ru Xue were half-siblings. This meant Qiao Rulong’s maternal uncle might not be Mei Ru Xue’s uncle. Is the world really this coincidental?

The person Mo Han mentioned was undoubtedly Mei Ru Xue. After the incident, Mei Ru Xue hadn’t reached out to him. Hopefully, she still didn’t know about this.

Mo Han said, "Confused, right? Hasn’t Mei Ru Xue asked you?"

Xu Chunliang said, "What does this have to do with her!"

"A cooked duck’s beak is still hard!"

Mo Han drove the car onto the highway. Zheng Peian yawned and opened his eyes, "Where are we now?"

Mo Han said, "Director Zheng, just sit back and relax." She knew very well that Zheng Peian was just a front Xu Chunliang used to fool others. Xu Chunliang was meticulous in his actions, and he surely had a backup plan this time too.

Elder Qiao strolled in the morning light. He liked the moment the sun began to rise. The small lake ahead was already frozen over, and the surface was as smooth as a mirror under the sunlight. Elder Qiao recalled his time in the regiment when he was young. Time flies, and without realizing it, he had become old. As people age, they tend to reminisce more.

His eldest son Qiao Yuanjiang called yesterday, inviting him to spend the New Year in Pinghai. Although his eldest son’s family was sincere, Elder Qiao still declined. However, he didn’t want to stay in the Capital City either. A thought suddenly came to his mind: if possible, he really wanted to revisit the place where he once lived.

Around this time each year, his biggest concern was still his second son, Qiao Yuanshan. It had been twenty-three years since he sent Mei Ru Xue back to the Qiao Family, and he had never appeared again.

Elder Qiao remembered how he quietly followed, watching his son walk further away. He had wanted to call out to him, but the words wouldn’t come out. He regretted it even now. If he had called to him at that time, perhaps he would have chosen to stay.

Yuanshan, oh Yuanshan, where are you exactly? Are you alive or dead? Even if you hate me, your daughter is here. Do you not care about her at all?

"Grandpa!"

Elder Qiao took a breath and slowly turned around, looking at his granddaughter approaching, a kindly smile appeared on his face, "Xiaoxue, so early?"

Mei Ru Xue came to his side and softly said, "I came out to exercise, and I happened to see you. Where’s everyone else?"

Elder Qiao said, "I’m not so old that I need a wheelchair, am I?"

Mei Ru Xue smiled and took his arm, "Grandpa, you’re not old at all. You’re in great health."

Elder Qiao said, "Walk with me!"

Mei Ru Xue nodded.

The two walked along the shore of the lake, facing the rising sun. From his granddaughter’s expression, Elder Qiao could tell she had something to say: "Do you want to talk to me about something?"
