Seeing Lu Jun scold the on-duty police officer so fiercely, Tao Ruoxiang felt somewhat apologetic and tried to persuade him, "Director Lu, Senior Brother Lu, it's just a small matter, there's no need for you to come here in person. Besides, this officer has already filed a case for us."
"Yes, yes, my attitude was a bit harsh just now, and I have already realized my mistake," the on-duty police officer quickly explained.
Lu Jun grunted heavily, and the on-duty police officer immediately became nervous.
Qin Lang looked at this Lu Jun, the great Director Lu, and indeed found him impressive. Although he was just a director, his presence was very powerful. No wonder he had become the chief of the police station at such a young age.
Moreover, to be fair, this Lu Jun was also quite good-looking, standing at about 1.8 meters tall. In his police uniform, he really did look quite dashing.
Originally, Qin Lang had a good impression of Lu Jun, but Lu Jun's first words made him feel a bit repulsed.
Because Lu Jun actually called Tao Ruoxiang "Ruoxiang," which clearly showed his intentions. It seemed that this guy had designs on Tao Ruoxiang. Qin Lang immediately became wary of him.
"Ruoxiang, let me handle this case for you. Don't worry, I will do my best to resolve it without violating any principles," Lu Jun said, giving off a sense of righteousness.
Tao Ruoxiang clearly trusted Lu Jun a lot, so she told him the details of the case and handed over the evidence.
Then, Tao Ruoxiang joked, "Senior Brother Lu, if you solve this case, it will be a great achievement for you. When you get promoted, remember to treat us to a meal."
"Haha... Of course, of course," Lu Jun said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will personally oversee this case!"
Hearing Lu Jun say this, Tao Ruoxiang was completely reassured and felt that the matter was settled. She then left with Qin Lang.
Ma Wei sent Qin Lang and Tao Ruoxiang to the school gate.
At this point, Qin Lang finally asked Tao Ruoxiang, "Teacher Tao, do you really think that people like An Desheng will be punished by the law?"
"Yes, I believe so!" Tao Ruoxiang nodded, "Moreover, Director Lu is my senior from university. He is a very upright person, and I believe he will handle this case well and get results quickly."
"I hope so," Qin Lang nodded, but he didn't really think so.
After sending Tao Ruoxiang to her dormitory, Qin Lang called Han Sanqiang, "Aqiang, get ready to deal with Sang Kun!"
"Great, Brother Qin! I thought you weren't going to take action." Han Sanqiang said excitedly. Sang Kun had previously incited the Bull to go against him, and Han Sanqiang had long wanted to take revenge.

"Qin Lang, you're finally back!"
When Qin Lang returned to the dormitory, he found that Zhao Kan was not playing games for the first time.
Zhao Kan was still in a state of excitement, "Qin Lang, I never expected that you would know Han Sanqiang, and that Han Sanqiang would call you 'Brother Qin.' You're really amazing!"
"Zhao Kan, are you excited just because of this?" Qin Lang looked at Zhao Kan in surprise.
"It's not just this," Zhao Kan said with a smile, "Actually, I was thinking that since you and Brother Strong are so close, I won't have to worry so much about living in Xiyang City in the future."
"Damn! Is that all you're thinking about?" Qin Lang grunted.
"Brother Qin, hey... I'm just thinking about the future," Zhao Kan said with a smile, "With my grades, you know I won't get into a top university. At best, I'll spend money to go to a mediocre school, and in the future, I'll have to take over my father's business and do some small business in Xiyang City. To do business, you need connections in both the legal and illegal worlds; otherwise, it's really hard to get by."
"Doing business, why do you need to involve the underworld? Your family is in the construction materials business, right?" Qin Lang was a bit puzzled.
"Well, that's what my father told me," Zhao Kan said, "My father said, don't think that the construction materials business is easy. In reality, you need to take care of many aspects. Not to mention the legal fees for various permits, if you don't have connections in the underworld, your construction materials warehouse might be stolen or even burned down..."
"Alright, alright, it's not that dark," Qin Lang said, "Does your father not oppose you getting involved in society?"
"Ha, of course not. He told me, no matter which path you choose, it's the same. There's no clear boundary between the legal and illegal worlds. No matter which path you choose, as long as you become a top person, that's success! That's the goal!"
"That's your father's and your value system. No wonder your father encouraged you to go to Chunmei Bay."
Hearing Qin Lang mention Chunmei Bay, Zhao Kan's expression suddenly darkened, and he looked sad, "Qin Lang, can we not talk about that place?"
Then, Zhao Kan turned around, facing the balcony outside, and sighed, "This feeling can only be remembered, but at the time, it was already lost!"
Qin Lang knew that Zhao Kan was grieving over Zhou Lingling's "death." After all, he had once had a crush on Zhou Lingling and had hated her for her fall, but now he was reminiscing about her, even feeling a bit guilty.
"Zhao Kan—"
"Qin Lang, pick the flower when it's in bloom, don't wait until there are no flowers left to pick," Zhao Kan seemed to be in a poetic mood, "Life is short, enjoy it while you can. If you like someone, go after her, and get her! So, Qin Lang, I support you in pursuing Teacher Tao!"
"Damn!" Qin Lang had intended to comfort Zhao Kan, but he didn't expect the guy to bring the topic back to himself. Since Zhou Lingling wasn't dead, Qin Lang didn't bother to comfort Zhao Kan and changed the subject, "By the way, didn't I ask you to find out who was spreading rumors about me and Zhou Lingling at school? Have you found anything?"
"Oh, I have some leads," Zhao Kan said, "You won't believe it, but the person who gave me the information was Zhao Guang. I remember, on the day you came to school, Zhao Guang seemed to want to go against you."
"That's right," Qin Lang said, "But people can change. Tell me what you found out."
"Zhao Guang told me that the information was most likely spread by someone surnamed Cai. The people who initially came out to accuse and curse you were all close to Cai Shao," Zhao Kan said.
"Good, tell Zhao Guang to continue to maintain a good relationship with the guy surnamed Cai and to inform you of any developments," Qin Lang said. He didn't really take Cai Shao seriously, but the fact that this guy could spread rumors against Qin Lang at the right time and get him sent to the police station showed that he had some cunning and couldn't be completely ignored.
Old Toxin had once said, "An inconspicuous venomous insect can kill a martial arts expert."
This was a warning to Qin Lang not to underestimate any opponent, because even a small nail could pierce your foot.
"Oh, Qin Lang, weren't you planning to stay hidden? Why are you back at school so openly?" Zhao Kan only now remembered that Qin Lang was still on medical leave and had many enemies who were looking for him.
"Now, there's no need to hide. The other side should already know," Qin Lang said calmly. After Tao Ruoxiang and he went to the police station to file a report, everything had shifted from the shadows to the light. As long as Sang Kun and An Desheng weren't deaf or blind, they would soon know what had happened.
Now, Qin Lang had to wait for the law to take its course. If not, he would have to take matters into his own hands and make them suffer a more severe punishment than the law.
Tomorrow, the results should be clear.
