Chapter 36 - Who's Bai Yu? Come out to me!

Chapter 36: Who’s Bai Yu? Come out to me!“Mr. Li, don’t you think your tavern is a bit small?”

“The guests are all waiting outside. If this continues, the gathered crowd will gradually disperse…”

Bai Yu smiled and chatted with the shopkeeper, who had left a good impression on him.

“Uh… Does Mr. Bai want me to expand it?”

“But expanding would require closing down, and I think it would also impact business…”

Shopkeeper Li just wanted to chat, not seeking advice, but since Bai Yu brought it up, he was eager to listen. With such a talent, a few words from him could be enlightening and potentially change a person’s life.

“No, no, no!”

Bai Yu gently shook his head and said, “What I mean is, consider acquiring other places, building your brand, and establishing a chain.”

“Gradually spread your name throughout Lieyang City and even the whole country…”

“”

Bai Yu’s words were light, but Shopkeeper Li’s eyes shrank, and he couldn’t help but imagine.

Breathing became heavier. “Mr. Bai, how should I…”

A loud noise erupted downstairs before the excited shopkeeper could finish his question.

“Who is Bai Yu!!!”

“Come out faster!”

It seemed something had happened, and the questioning voice mingled with the disrupted diners’ noise.

“Bai Yu?” Shopkeeper Li frowned.

Just when he wanted to discuss the future development with Mr. Bai!

“Mr. Bai, I have something to deal with. Please excuse me.”

“I’ll be with you.”

Bai Yu stood up, too.

“I forgot to tell you earlier. My real name is Bai Yu. Bai Yutang is an alias.”

“I use an alias when I’m out to avoid trouble.”

Shopkeeper Li: …

…

“Who is this?”

“… the fourth son of Xinyuan Mansion! What is he doing here?”

“Bai Yu? Who is it? It’s hard to offend this guy!”

“He brought people from the government?”

“Obviously, he is the one who deserves to be arrested!”

……

In the tavern’s first floor, amidst the noise, a finely dressed young man entered with a few servants and government officers in police uniforms. They loudly demanded to see someone named Bai Yu.

The surrounding diners whispered and discussed upon seeing these unexpected guests.

Yang Shancheng didn’t care about the onlookers. His gaze burned with anger as he scanned the tavern. To this day, he couldn’t forget the humiliation of the Imperial Examination day, losing face to a poor scholar and almost losing his life in the river.

Now, he sought revenge. He found Bai Yu here, determined to make him pay for the past and, if possible, claim the beauty involved.

“Who is Bai Yu?!”

“Where is he? Come out!”

The anger in Yang Shancheng’s eyes fixed on Bai Yu, ignoring the please from the tavern staff. Shopkeeper Li tried to intervene, but Yang Shancheng paid him no attention.

“Arrest him! Tie him up!”

But before he could finish speaking, the policemen surrounded Bai Yu, ignoring Shopkeeper Li’s attempts to defend him.

“Bai Yu, we received a report accusing you of robbing and attempting murder. Come with us!”

Armed with knives, the constables surrounded Bai Yu, who remained calm and even chuckled, glancing at Yang Shancheng with amusement. Shopkeeper Li shouted about misunderstandings, but he was pushed aside.

“Less talk! Come with us!”

Bai Yu questioned, “Do you have an official arrest warrant?”

The constables ignored him, and Bai Yu warned them about the consequences of false arrest. The constables, unexpectedly uneasy, ignored him and focused on Yang Shancheng’s accusations.

Ignoring the fabricated charges, Yang Shancheng demanded Bai Yu’s arrest.

“Where’s that beauty?!” He shouted, making baseless accusations.

People who knew Bai Yu thought

The irony of Yang Shancheng accusing Bai Yu of robbing women when he himself was known for such actions was not lost on the onlookers.
