"Come over immediately and bail us out."
Upon hearing the voice on the phone, Lu Jingchen frowned and sat up in bed: "How did teaching a little assistant end up with a trip to the police station? Weren’t there several of you?"
"There’s a tough guy involved, seems his surname is Feng. Cut the crap and hurry to bail us out, or we’ll all be waiting to be prosecuted."
Lu Jingchen’s face turned grim as he hung up, damn, damn, damn... what rotten luck.
He grabbed the clothes tossed on the bed, put them on, snatched his car keys and swiftly went downstairs.
The car soon came to a halt at the police station entrance, Lu Jingchen walked in with a sour face and, seeing several people squatting on the ground, directly bypassed Assistant Zhang and addressed the police: "I am the second young master of the Lu Family, brother to Lu Jinghan of Lu Group. Release my brothers immediately."
Feng Yi, just out of the restroom, had a nearly burnt-out cigarette between his fingers, white smoke seeping from his lips: "You hit Lu Jinghan’s special assistant."
"Feng Yi, stop pretending to have authority here, I’m with the Lu Family, what’s wrong with hitting a little assistant?"
"Heh, my little assistant? No matter what, I’m someone working in the CEO’s office, way better than you, a little salesman."
Normally, Assistant Zhang isn’t someone who clings to matters like this, but who knows if he’s really pissed off, today he’s decided to clash with him.
Lu Jingchen angrily grabbed Assistant Zhang by the collar and shouted harshly: "Speak one more word, and I’ll ruin you."
The policeman frowned and tapped the table: "This is the police station, are you looking to spend a few days here? Let go quickly."
Lu Jingchen unwillingly released his hand, turned around, and looked at the seating officer, an impatient tone carrying a hint of command: "Release my brothers immediately."
The policeman turned his gaze to Feng Yi, seeking his opinion.
Feng Yi leisurely dropped the cigarette butt on the floor, raised his glossy shoes and stomped it out: "Apologize to Assistant Zhang. Once you’ve apologized, they can be released."
"Nonsense, I, the second young master of the Lu Family, apologize to some useless assistant? Feng Yi, are you still dreaming?"
Feng Yi sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, a storm brewing in his dark eyes, but his voice remained calm and lukewarm: "Then prepare to be prosecuted. Intentional injury isn’t a light charge."
The people next to him looked at Lu Jingchen with displeasure: "Is apologizing that hard? Don’t drag us down."
"Shut up." Lu Jingchen impatiently snapped, his scarlet eyes glaring maliciously at Assistant Zhang: "Just you wait, I’ll beat you up and toss you into the Huangpu River."
"Officer, you’ve heard him. If anything happens to me in the future, remember to bring this culprit to justice."
Assistant Zhang fearlessly shrugged his shoulders and continued: "Hurry up, apologize to me."
Lu Jingchen’s facial lines tightened, he spat out the words "I’m sorry" through gritted teeth.
"Alright then, seeing that you apologized, I won’t hold grudges and I’ll let these guys go, no prosecution."
Assistant Zhang patted Lu Jingchen on the shoulder, his smile was smug, making Lu Jingchen almost wish he could tear him to shreds on the spot.
"President Feng, sorry to have taken up so much of your time, let’s head back." Assistant Zhang cheerfully turned to Feng Yi and said.
