Chapter 303 - The Keys are in the Ignition

An affair? Officer Chuan only made a grunt. If he hadn't seen these two guys in the hospital, he would have believed his sister. The last time she made these claims, it was with the AC installation man and with Chuan Fangfen's teacher. The last valid claim was when Bai Yueji ex-boyfriend tried to harass her, which she reported as an assault. An affair? It was easy to say that his sister was just trying to make things difficult for him.

Officer Chuan then pulled on his sister. "Big Sister, I need you to leave. I'm here on duty. I can and will arrest you if you make more actions. Go on… go home." He glanced at the row of women behind her before he snorted. "You even brought audience. Go home."

"You!" The big sister growled at him. She even vented her anger and humiliation on him as well as she pointed at him. "That Jiang woman was right to leave you! Not only are you stupid and blind, but you are also capable of destroying yourself! Let's see how you'll do without me!"

After the group had left, the man then glared at the two men. "What are you two doing here? Did you know what you just did?" He turned to Bai Yueji. "Yueji, what are they doing here?"

The mother, who was held by their daughter, then spoke, "They… they said they were in the neighborhood looking for something, and—"

"Can't you just leave them alone?" Officer Chuan glanced at them. "Did you know what just happened? Where do you think I'm going to get money to pay for your mother's hospitalization fees now?" Before he started to explode, he then glanced at the two boys. "You two, get out of my house."

"We'll just return at a better time." Li Feng didn't know when this time would be. With a King feeding on their worsening states, it would only be a matter of time before it would try to eat the humans as well. Then again, they really had no space in this house for now. It's just that… when he tried to pull on Liu Xiaodan's sleeve, the latter wouldn't move. He then hissed. "Xiaodan, let's go."

Liu Xiaodan only stared at the man as if there was something about him that Liu Xiaodan had only realized now that he had heard his sister. Then again, there was no conclusive evidence.

In the end, he let himself be dragged away by the senior shaman. When they got out of the house, the junior officer was still by the police mobile. Since they were never stopped before, they were rather shocked when the junior officer called out after them. When the young men turned, the officer frowned at them.

In a soft voice, he spoke: "Liu Xiaodan? Li Feng?"

"...officer, I have my release papers. They're at home." Liu Xiaodan quickly defended himself. He had indeed received them even before the Sun Corporation released a list of names of the pronounced dead. If this guy tried to incriminate him for being in the streets, then… he could get away with it.

"I don't care. Look. You two are dangerous people in the eyes of the public. If you don't want to cause trouble, just stay home and find work there. Don't walk out here in the streets." The junior officer snorted at them. Of course, even if the courts had settled the cases of these two, their names were still rather popular. Seeing them together again made the junior officer feel so angry.

However, he had no right to act on that anger. Neither was it proper for him to do something against these two civilians. The most he could do was to make it sound like he's watching out for them. All three of them knew that they were not on friendly terms with anyone.

Still, Li Feng only nodded and obeyed the officer of the law. He pulled Liu Xiaodan's bucket hat down and dragged him away, even if Liu Xiaodan was aware of Li Feng's suppressed anger. Even if he couldn't blame the people to believe his innocence, he still hated being treated like this.

Liu Xiaodan couldn't say anything as well. This scandal rooted from Guangru's goodwill.

…

When the two returned to the Wu Family Estate, another car was parked next to Li Feng's silver Audi. The golden Bentley Continental GT didn't lose out to the rows of cars in the parking lot—Liu Xiaodan actually gasped: "When did so many cars get here?"

Li Feng also realized that there were eight luxury cars in the parking spaces in the front yard now. Earlier, he remembered only seeing Liu Li's blue BMW. Right now, the six others were actually making Liu Xiaodan feel the physical pain of being poor. Outside his allowance, he had no other sources of money. 

Even if his father was a CEO, Liu Li didn't raise Liu Xiaodan to be a wastrel second-generation rich young master. He had an average allowance and wardrobe collection. The only traces of his once-lavish lifestyle was their big house. Even his course was not designed for the overly rich since Ting University felt free to rent their items to students—who would have to pay if they broke one.

Right now, he was like a small cyclist looking for his broken bicycle in a row of luxury cars, only that there were really luxury cars in their parking spaces. He then walked dejectedly inside, receiving the welcome of the maids who were in the main lobby.

"Young Master, Young Madam had already arrived. She's in the dining hall with Madam and Master," a maid spoke with him with a smile as if trying to lift his spirits.

"Hm, Young Madam? Nayi's here?" Liu Xiaodan lifted his brows and reached into his pocket and saw that he had ignored some messages because he muted it. He twisted his lips in guilt before pocketing the phone again. "Do we have a lot of guests? So many luxury cars are outside."

"Oh, those? All of them belonged to Old Master. Matron Yuye told us to clean them and place them in the parking spaces in the front yard." The maid hummed, but she caught the strange glint in Liu Xiaodan's eyes. She then seemed to understand what the matron was doing from the very minute Liu Xiaodan stepped out of the house earlier. She ended up smiling. "The keys are in their ignition, Young Master. You can drive them for a test later."

Liu Xiaodan didn't know how to feel. Wasn't it too much to want things like that? Then again, he wanted to know why the matron took those cars out for a display. It wasn't trying to get some crowd in their front yard for a show, right? Still, since he was allowed to drive them and Chuan Nayi's already here, he thought of one thing.

He didn't have a license so he probably shouldn't drive them carelessly.

"Nayi!" With higher spirits, Liu Xiaodan jogged to the dining hall, leaving the maid and Li Feng who was only laughing dryly.
