Chapter 1378 -1362: Serious Disciplinary Action (Part 2)
Chen Zhengmin was instantly dumbfounded. He had seen handcuffs many times before and even played around with them, but this time when they were on his own wrists, the cold sensation felt terrifying beyond words.
At this moment, the deputy chief awakened and, without grasping the situation, jumped up swiftly and shouted at Song Xiaodong, âYou dare to assault a police officer? Youâre doomed, youâre dead for sure!â
After yelling twice, he suddenly realized something was off. Why were there so many people in this room?
âChief!â He turned his head to see the chief, and his heart skipped a beat. He quickly greeted him.
Chief Zhaoâs face was exceptionally grim as he said seriously, âFrom this moment on, stop all your duties and cooperate with the investigation.â
âInvestigation? What are we investigating?â Deputy Chief Zhao looked bewildered.
Chief Zhao was furious, slamming the table loudly, âAs a deputy chief, how could you handle your duties like this? You are a police officer, not an accomplice to gangsters!â
âAh?â The deputy chief suddenly noticed the handcuffs on Chen Zhengminâs hands and then saw Chen Zhengminâs ashen face; his own expression changed to match Chen Zhengminâs.
Chapter 1363: Iâm Here to Kill You
Song Xiaodong was again sent back to the village by the police car. Along with him came two additional vehicles and a dozen police officers who swiftly moved to Zhao Qiangâs and his subordinatesâ homes, directly pulling them out from their beds.
The operation was extremely swift, occurring in the dead of night when the village people merely heard the dogs barking loudly.
The villagers were accustomed to this; sometimes wild beasts came down from the mountain, which caused the dogs to bark similarly. Hence, not a single person actually came out to take a look.
Even if Song Xiaodong didnât have influence in this area, at Xiaodongâs level, and with the Su Family not developing here, other families were rooted, making it extremely easy to connect with a few relationships in a city.
Therefore, Song Xiaodong just made one phone call, and Su Yuya had already contacted the right people to get everything done.
As for how things were handled, Song Xiaodong didnât need to pay them any more attention. With the esteemed Patriarch of the Su Family having an issue here, who wouldnât treat it seriously?
Returning to the room, Song Xiaodong tiptoed to the bed, and Shen Yueâs arm wrapped around him.
âAwake?â Song Xiaodong hugged Shen Yue back.
âI dosed for a while, then waited for you to return.â Shen Yue pressed her body harder against Song Xiaodongâs embrace as if trying to merge herself into him.
Song Xiaodong caressed Shen Yueâs back and said, âThen letâs sleep well for a while now.â
âI donâtâŠâ Shen Yue said, âYouâre leaving tomorrow, and I donât want to waste the time sleeping.â
âSo, what do you want to do?â Song Xiaodong softly kissed Shen Yue on the forehead.
âBad guy, I want you to be bad.â Shen Yueâs small hand started acting unruly.
Song Xiaodong let out a low growl and said, âAlright, then I wonât be polite.â
That night, neither of them slept; they got affectionate until fatigue, chatted sweetly, regained strength, and continued being affectionate until dawn when they reluctantly rose from bed.
âIs everything solved now?â Shen Yue wasnât tired, as Song Xiaodong would occasionally secretly infuse her with some True Qi.
Song Xiaodong nodded and said, âResolved. Those who do evil will be punished.â
Shen Yue smiled charmingly and said, âThatâs good. Now I can peacefully be a teacher here.â
âMr. Song, Teacher Shen!â Zhao Qiang rushed to the village committee excitedly early in the morning.
âWhatâs up?â Song Xiaodong asked knowingly.
Principal Zhao, beaming with excitement, said, âZhao Qiang and his subordinates have been caught by the police! Now our village will be peaceful.â
âThatâs good news.â Song Xiaodong smiled.
âWhy are you reacting so calmly?â Principal Zhao looked at Song Xiaodong and Shen Yue, puzzled, then suddenly exclaimed, âThis⊠wouldnât you have done this?â
Song Xiaodong patted Principal Zhaoâs shoulder and said, âPrincipal Zhao, you are a good principal. If you ever need help in the future, just tell Shen Yue, sheâll help you.â
Song Xiaodong didnât deny it, making Principal Zhao understand, as he looked at them in awe, stammering, âOh⊠Well⊠I donât need anything, just having teachers for the children is enough for me.â
Song Xiaodong nodded and said, âAlright. The funding for the school building will be in place soon, and then Principal Zhao will need to put in more effort.â
âFor sure, for sure!â Principal Zhao nodded vigorously.
Recognizing the situation, Principal Zhao saw that Shen Yue was clinging to Song Xiaodongâs arm, unwilling to let go, and after discussing business, quickly excused himself.
Song Xiaodong and Shen Yue prepared breakfast, and after eating, Song Xiaodong finally left under Shen Yueâs reluctant gaze.
No matter how reluctant, Song Xiaodong had to leave, and for the sake of her dreams, Shen Yue also had to stay. The separation was inevitable, but they knew the next reunion would be even sweeter.
Song Xiaodong arrived at the hospital, where Xiao Liuâs wife awaited. Outside the ward were two policemen standing guard.
âMr. SongâŠâ Xiao Liuâs wife said with teary eyes.
Song Xiaodong said, âIâll speak to them, but some punishments are unavoidable.â
âYes, I understand, Iâll wait for him.â Xiao Liuâs wife wiped her eyes.
Song Xiaodong nodded and went in to help Xiao Liu a bit; as for when the police would take Xiao Liu away, he didnât need to concern himself with that.
With the matters there settled, Song Xiaodong drove back. He had to drive a long way back to the city.
The road condition wasnât great, so Song Xiaodong couldnât drive fast, but he occasionally glanced at the scenery along the roadside, which wasnât bad. Though not as spectacular as those in scenic areas, the community with nature offered interesting sights.
A white figure suddenly dashed out from the side and stopped right in the middle of the road, facing Song Xiaodongâs car.
Song Xiaodong promptly slammed on the brakes, stopping less than a meter from the person, rolled down the window, and looked out, saying, âMiss Qingluan, missing me, eh? Came all the way here to see me.â
Qingluan directly opened the passenger door and sat inside.
âHey, donât make such a stern face, weâre like long-lost lovers reunited here.â Song Xiaodong smilingly gazed at Qingluan.
Qingluan kept her stern face and said, âHumph, I really came to kill you this time. Donât say I didnât give you a chance; pick a place with a nice view.â
âHere to kill me again? This is the third time youâve come to kill me.â Song Xiaodong looked helpless.
Qingluan gritted her teeth and said, âIf at first you donât succeed, try again, but there will be no third attempt. I didnât kill you the first two times; this time, I absolutely wonât hold back.â
Song Xiaodong shook his head and said, âEven though we stand on different sides, thereâs no need to always talk about fighting and killing. Itâs so boring. If we find a place to chat affectionately, talk of love, and let me touch your little toe, thatâs theâŠâ
âShut up!â Qingluan raised her hand and chopped toward Song Xiaodongâs neck.
Song Xiaodong raised his hand and blocked Qingluanâs hand, saying, âDonât, even if youâre going to kill me, letâs do it with some flair. Killing me in the car feels quite oppressive.â
âHumph, then you better watch your mouth.â
Qingluan glared fiercely at Song Xiaodong, withdrawing her hand, but internally she was shocked. The casual move was formidable in the hands of an expert, yet Song Xiaodong effortlessly blocked it, indicating he had improved significantly since they last parted.
