Chapter 94

Lu Xin's heart trembled when he heard Shen Yifei's question. Shen Yifei and Li Lu were cousins, both pure young women. No matter how he chose, he could only choose one, which might hurt the other. Thinking of this, he suddenly laughed at himself. It seemed that Shen Yifei didn't have any feelings for him, and he shouldn't be so self-centered.

"Of course I like her," Lu Xin deliberately put on an innocent and cheerful smile, "I like you too, because I can't possibly not like you!"

Shen Yifei gave Lu Xin a playful glare, "I'm talking about that kind of liking!"

"Which kind of liking?" Lu Xin pretended to be confused.

"The kind where you want to hold hands and kiss!" Although Shen Yifei was a tough girl, she was still an innocent young woman. Mentioning such things made her cheeks turn red.

Seeing Shen Yife's blushing face, Lu Xin felt even more moved. He sighed in his heart, pure girls were truly adorable, while women like Yang Xiaoli had long forgotten what it meant to blush!

"I'm not quite sure," Lu Xin said honestly, "I've always been confused about matters of the heart. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been deceived by my ex-girlfriend for so long. Before Lu Lu gets into college, I can't let her be distracted, so I have to ignore my feelings for her!"

Shen Yifei glanced at Lu Xin approvingly and nodded with a smile, "That's best!"

On the way back, Lu Xin suddenly caught sight of a sleazy figure darting into a side alley. He quickly broke free from Shen Yifei's support and ran after the figure, shouting back to her, "He's the lottery shop owner, Miao Guangnian, an accomplice!"

Seeing Lu Xin's agile figure as he ran, Shen Yifei realized that he was already fine. He had just been using her support to take advantage of her. She felt a bit angry, but now wasn't the time to be upset. She quickly instructed her two subordinates to escort Wu Guicang and Wang Yigen to the police car and followed Lu Xin in pursuit of Miao Guangnian.

Miao Guangnian had been fantasizing about Wu Guicang coming to share the money at the lottery shop, but instead, he saw several police officers arresting Wu Guicang. Realizing that his scheme had been exposed, he quickly packed his things and prepared to flee. Just as he ran through an alley, he was spotted by the sharp-eyed Lu Xin.

Having spent a lot of time with Wu Guicang and Wang Yigen, Miao Guangnian knew how to evade capture. He ran towards the bustling city, but after a few steps, he felt a gust of wind behind him. Before he could react, he was hit on the back of the head by a brick and fell to the ground with a thud.

Lu Xin was only four or five meters away from Miao Guangnian. Using his metal control ability to attack with metal materials would have been overkill, especially since his metal energy was almost depleted. He had only absorbed a few minutes' worth of metal energy from the iron railing, which was enough to help his body recover but not enough to drive metal objects to attack. There was a ready-made brick on the ground, so why not use it?

Shen Yifei stepped forward and handcuffed Miao Guangnian, then kicked a pressure point on his body, causing him to wake up.

Seeing Lu Xin with a stern expression, Miao Guangnian showed no sign of remorse. Instead, he glared at Shen Yifei and shouted angrily, "Why are you arresting me? What crime did I commit?"

Shen Yifei sneered, "Miao Guangnian, once you see those people, you'll know what crime you committed!"

Miao Guangnian tried to resist, but Shen Yifei patted the gun at her waist, "My patience is limited. Do you want to go quietly, or do you want me to send you with this gun?"

Miao Guangnian was so scared that he almost wet his pants and hurriedly walked to the scene.

They soon arrived near the single apartment complex and saw a crowd gathered around the police car. Shen Yifei was alarmed; she was most worried about a mass incident and quickly approached.

It turned out that the parents of Wu Guicang, Wang Yigen, and Ni Makai had rushed over and were demanding the release of their sons. Shen Yifei's subordinates in the police car kept the doors locked and held onto Ni Makai. The other two police officers also escorted Wu Guicang and Wang Yigen into the car and locked the doors.

Wu Guicang, Wang Yigen, and Ni Makai had been extorting and committing fraud near the Sanjiang Group, causing great public outrage. However, many people, considering their parents' status as old employees, had not reported them. Many were fed up with these three, and even their parents were tired of these ungrateful sons who brought shame to their families and were often ignored.

But when Shen Yifei was about to take these troublemakers away, their parents, out of love for their children, rushed over to block her, gathering some relatives and friends to surround the police car, preventing the police from leaving.

Shen Yifei's face was cold, and she looked at these negligent parents with disdain. She smiled coldly, "Your sons have committed extortion and fraud multiple times and must face the law. If you continue to obstruct us, you will be charged with obstructing official duties. According to Article 277 of the Criminal Law, using violence or threats to obstruct police officers and other state officials in the performance of their duties can result in a sentence of up to three years in prison, detention, surveillance, or a fine. If the violence causes injury to the police officers, you can also be charged with intentional injury under Article 234 of the Criminal Law. Do you want to join your sons in prison?"

She then shouted loudly, "If you and your relatives want to join your sons in prison, continue your illegal actions! You can also post your sons' deeds online and let everyone judge their behavior! If you don't want to be disgraced in your old age, feel free to cause a commotion!"

Families with poor discipline often have selfish parents. They were only concerned with their own enjoyment when young, leaving their sons to be raised by their grandparents. When the boys were older, they were allowed to grow up freely while the parents were busy with mahjong, completely ignoring their sons. Without proper upbringing, the boys, influenced by their bad friends, naturally went astray. By the time they had gone astray, it was too late to correct them. The parents of Wu Guicang, Wang Yigen, and Ni Makai were almost all like this.

Hearing Shen Yifei's words, they looked at each other, their love for their children not outweighing their love for themselves. They all backed down.

They didn't dare to cause trouble with the police, but they dared to cause trouble with Lu Xin, who was a young engineer fresh out of university.

They surrounded Lu Xin, hurling insults and even trying to hit him.
