Chapter 128 Fists and Hooked Nose

Liu Jing got into the car and immediately dialed Lu Qiuyang's number: "Qiuyang, where are you?"

"Hehe, what? Calling so urgently, trying to collect a debt?" With a bright future for the company and the impending marriage, Lu Qiuyang smiled broadly, in a very good mood.

"No." Lu Qiuyang's wedding was the day after tomorrow, yet he was asking for help to fight. Liu Jing felt it was rather unkind, but now was not the time for politeness. "I'm in a bit of trouble, and I need your help to vent my anger!"

"Okay." Lu Qiuyang was taken aback, without even thinking, and without asking for a reason. "How many people do you need? When?"

Liu Jing pondered for a moment and said, "Not many, just one more will do, but this is urgent, I need to act now."

"Okay." Lu Qiuyang said, "Wait for me at the intersection of xx Street, I'll bring people over right away."

After hanging up, Liu Jing dialed Deng Jihong's cell phone to let his boss know he was safe and asked her to tell Secretary Lin, not for any other reason than not wanting others to feel uneasy because of him. At

Qinglin Hotel, Liu Jing picked up his Renault and headed straight for the meeting point. Seeking Lu Qiuyang wasn't just about having an accomplice, but also about intimidation. The Tibetan community was exceptionally powerful, even the underworld feared them. If Lu Qiuyang hadn't been a fool in the past, things like the bathhouse incident would have been smashed to pieces.

Lu Qiuyang moved quickly; before Liu Jing even arrived, he saw him leading a burly, dark-skinned man, standing at the street corner looking around. Liu Jing recognized the man; he was the one who had helped him at the Tibetan barbecue restaurant. It seemed their relationship was special.

Liu Jing parked his car and went to greet him.

Lu Qiuyang led the burly man over, saying warmly, "Liu Jing, this is my brother, Gelug. You met him last time; we grew up together. Now he's the company's security manager. Hey, if you don't count Xiao Xin, he's the only member." Turning back, Lu Qiuyang spoke a bunch of Tibetan to Gelug, and the burly man nodded repeatedly, his eyes gradually burning.

Liu Jing respected ethnic customs, but he was still speechless. The three of them were together, and they weren't exactly unable to speak Mandarin. Yet every time they spoke to someone of the same ethnicity, they switched to their native language. It made him look like an idiot. Of course, this is a common custom among most ethnic minorities.

After Lu Qiuyang finished speaking, Gelug eagerly stepped forward, extending his large, fan-like hand: "Kashonsangbu is a good brother. You saved him, so you're a good brother too. From now on, your affairs and his affairs are all the same."

Gelug's expression was a bit long-winded, but incredibly sincere. Liu Jing gratefully said, "Thank you, Gelug Aru. From now on, your affairs are my affairs. You, Kasongsangbu, the three of us will always be good brothers." Liu Jing also started to ramble, thankfully not forgetting to use the only Tibetan word he knew: Aru, meaning brother.

Lu Qiuyang chuckled inwardly, while Gelug grinned broadly, his smile incredibly radiant.

The three got into the car. Liu Jing had Lu Qiuyang drive, heading directly to the criminal police station, while he and Gelug sat in the back. Lu Qiuyang didn't ask any questions, knowing that Liu Jing's arrangement must have a reason.

In the car, Lu Qiuyang asked why, and Liu Jing briefly explained the situation, including their encounter in Thailand. Lu Qiuyang was extremely shocked, looking at him as if from another world. Gru was even more exaggerated, his hair and beard bristling, his eyes practically spitting fire, his two pumpkin-sized fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

Diagonally opposite the entrance to the criminal investigation team, Lu Qiuyang parked his car, and Liu Jing called Yu Xia. Soon, Zhang Jianguang emerged, cursing and slamming the car door shut, and drove off. Without waiting for Liu Jing's instructions, Lu Qiuyang followed at a distance.

Liu Jing, fearing Zhang Jianguang would discover him and escape, carefully hid behind.

"Where to make your move?" Lu Qiuyang asked in a low voice, staring at the car ahead.

Liu Jing calmly replied, "The Ideal Group building is on a small street. Wait until he turns in, then Gru and I will get out first and circle around behind. You go in and block him." If all three were in the car, Zhang Jianguang might reverse and escape. Although Lu Qiuyang was large, he wore glasses and looked rather frail; Zhang Jianguang would likely get out to confront him.

"What if he doesn't take that route?" Lu Qiuyang asked worriedly.

Liu Jing flashed a cruel smile: "He's so unlucky today, he'll definitely take that road."

Lu Qiuyang glanced at him, scoffing at his confidence, but didn't say much, instead asking, "How badly?"

"Just a few scratches, we can't make a big scene." Liu Jing tilted his head, then suddenly laughed, "Just beat his face until it's the same color as his car."

Lu Qiuyang and Gru looked up and burst into laughter.

Zhang Jianguang's car was a faded purple Brilliance BMW. Liu Jing thought of a common line from Taiwanese movies, a famous saying often quoted by celebrities: "Please, don't do this! Why are you always like this?" An

old saying goes, "Don't unleash your anger before it reaches the heavens," but the reality is not so simple. A warm breeze blew, the afternoon sun was still charming, and the city swayed in the bright sunshine. Even the heavens would be happy to beat up a bad guy.

The two cars drove one after the other, at a leisurely pace. Twenty minutes later, Zhang Jianguang slowed down and turned into the alley where the Ideal Group was located. Lu Qiuyang's eyes blazed with excitement as he glanced back. Liu Jing smiled smugly and patted him on the shoulder. Lu Qiuyang accelerated, slamming on the brakes at the street corner. Liu Jing and Gru got out of the car, exchanged glances, and excitedly adjusted their collars.

His attempt to frame Liu Jing had failed, and he was now being questioned by the police. Zhang Jianguang was furious and resentful, hating Liu Jing to the extreme. The general manager of the prestigious Ideal Group, someone even the city's police chief treated as an equal, had never suffered such a loss before—a mere criminal police captain dared to disrespect him.

"You little brat, just you wait!" With the group's gate in sight, Zhang Jianguang regained some composure and slammed his fist on the steering wheel in frustration.

In the rearview mirror, a dark-colored sedan was speeding by. His heart tightened, and he instinctively looked back. The car sped up, overtaking him in an instant, then suddenly swerved, its tires screeching against the pavement, and screeched to a halt in front of him.

"Ah!" Zhang Jianguang cried out in alarm, slamming on the brakes, sweat pouring down his face.

Inside the car was a bespectacled, clueless young man, who seemed equally terrified, staring at him expressionlessly.

"Are you an idiot? Can't you drive?" Zhang Jianguang snapped, pushing open the car door and getting out.

The car was, of course, Liu Jing's Renault, and the man was, of course, Lu Qiuyang. Lu Qiuyang followed, inwardly chuckling. Liu Jing's calculations were surprisingly accurate, not a single detail off. But how could such a moron become the CEO of a corporation?

"What the hell are you doing?" Zhang Jianguang, his large, hooked nose raised, charged forward menacingly.

Lu Qiuyang remained silent, his smile as honest as ever.

"Where the hell are you from? Looking for death?" Zhang Jianguang stopped in front of him, his expression exceptionally arrogant.

Lu Qiuyang sized up this taller, designer-clad CEO, his eyes filled with contempt.

"I'm asking you a question! Don't you understand Chinese?" Zhang Jianguang's words, seemingly unfounded, only fueled his anger.

Lu Qiuyang grinned and pointed behind him.

Zhang Jianguang turned around, his eyes widening instantly, understanding everything. Liu Jing and Gru, one on each side, with cruel smiles, were strolling towards him from behind. Without a second thought, he charged towards his dark purple car door.

"Bang!" Lu Qiuyang, anticipating this, stepped forward, slamming the door shut and blocking his way.

Zhang Jianguang, a volleyball recruit, had been a good-for-nothing since childhood, a frequent fighter. He understood the situation perfectly, turned and ran, hoping to escape using his past athletic prowess.

Unfortunately, he ran into Gru and Lu Qiuyang. Both had grown up on the thin air, harsh climate, and rugged terrain of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, their lung capacity, endurance, and speed were extraordinary. Having come prepared, how could they possibly lose to a gambler and womanizer?

Lu Qiuyang blocked his way again in a few steps. He turned to run again, but Gru swung his big feet and charged at him from the side, clamping his arms around him tightly. Zhang Jianguang struggled with his large body, but Gru's arms were as immovable as iron locks.

"Isn't this Mr. Zhang? Why are you in such a hurry?" Liu Jing approached with a beaming smile.

Zhang Jianguang wisely gave up struggling and glared at him, asking, "What do you want?"

"What do you think?" Liu Jing chuckled. "Didn't I already tell you I'd settle accounts with you, or I'd change my surname to yours? I didn't want to change my surname, so I had to come find you. I didn't expect you to be not only stupid but also have such a bad memory?"

Zhang Jianguang was panting heavily with anger, twisting his large, hooked nose: "Kid, I'm warning you..."

"Warning your mother's ass!" Before he could finish speaking, Lu Qiuyang kicked him hard in the stomach. He had just been insulted several times and was ready to retaliate.

"Hmm." Zhang Jianguang grunted, instinctively trying to bend over. But Gru held him tightly, forcing him to painfully raise his face, gritting his teeth and saying, "You fucking dare kill me! If you don't, you're not your mother's child!"

"Fine, whatever you say." Liu Jing took a deep breath, spat twice into his palm, and suddenly threw a straight punch at his signature hooked nose. It was a genuine straight punch, a satisfying punch, carrying the anger accumulated from his trip to Thailand. The grievance of being falsely accused

and framed seemed to be released with a single punch, expelling all the resentment in his heart. "Bang!" The fist made contact with the hooked nose, producing a heavy sound mixed with the cracking of the nasal bone.

Zhang Jianguang felt a wave of dizziness and excruciating pain. His head jerked back, his vision went black, then brightened again. Many stars appeared. He felt his proud nose collapse instantly, warm liquid gushing out like a spring, flowing over his lips and jaw, dripping onto his expensive shirt.

Which was harder, the fist or the hooked nose?

"Of course it's the fist," Liu Jing thought, "human physiology dictates the answer." But Liu Jing was still shocked—no, utterly stunned! Zhang Jianguang's hooked nose was indeed extraordinary. Hard enough! Stiff enough! Shaking his aching hand, Liu Jing thought to himself. He had learned martial arts from his father since childhood, always habitually using an empty fist. If it were a solid punch, it would probably tear his skin!

"Again!" Zhang Jianguang, regaining his senses, roared at him with a ferocious expression.

"**Looking for death!" Lu Qiuyang delivered a powerful punch to his left cheek.

"Pfft!" Zhang Jianguang spat out a mouthful of blood. His fair left cheek immediately swelled up. Before he could recover, Liu Jing punched him in the right cheek, another mouthful of blood spurting in another direction.

The two men didn't waste any more words, relentlessly punching and kicking his head, face, chest, and abdomen. Zhang Jianguang quickly lost his footing, and Gru released his grip and joined the beating. Many passersby were attracted, watching the spectacle from a distance. The three men ignored him and continued kicking Zhang Jianguang, who was like a dead dog.

It must be said that Zhang Jianguang had some backbone; despite the brutal beating, he gritted his teeth and remained silent. Tibetans respect heroes, and the kind-hearted Gelug gradually couldn't bear it.

"Stop!" Lu Qiuyang glanced at him and firmly extended his right hand to Gelug.

Liu Jing, panting, looked at the two men with confusion. Gelug hesitated for a moment, then readily nodded, reaching behind him to pull out a broad-backed curved knife unique to Tibet and handing it to him. Minority groups are allowed to carry knives, but only in areas where they are concentrated. Generally, as long as they don't cause trouble, the police won't confiscate them.

"What are you going to do?" Liu Jing asked suspiciously.

Lu Qiuyang winked at him and squatted down. Zhang Jianguang's face was covered in filth, his eyes gleaming with intense resentment. He breathed weakly but stubbornly, but when he suddenly saw Lu Qiuyang pull out a gleaming short knife, his heart leaped into his throat, and the resentment in his eyes turned to terror.

"You're quite stubborn, aren't you?" Lu Qiuyang squinted, the blade and his glasses reflecting the sunlight, making even the gentle sunlight seem cruel.

Zhang Jianguang's bloodshot mouth gaped open, speechless.

Lu Qiuyang brandished the knife, chuckling, "Recognize this knife? We usually use it to kill yaks and Tibetan mastiffs." Lu Qiuyang was intimidating; no one would be willing to kill a Tibetan mastiff.

Zhang Jianguang's eyes widened instantly, revealing fear.

Lu Qiuyang grinned, adding, "That's right, we're from the guild. But don't be afraid, I won't kill you, I'll just leave you a mark. Tell me yourself, which ear?"

Zhang Jianguang stared, his breathing suddenly becoming rapid.

Lu Qiuyang adjusted his glasses: "If you won't tell me, fine, I'll decide for you, the right ear." He then extended his gleaming curved knife.

"No! No!" Zhang Jianguang finally broke down, letting out a desperate scream.

Gru turned his head away, revealing an extremely contemptuous look. Lu Qiuyang smiled, stood up, and threw the knife back. Gru was simple and straightforward. Lu Qiuyang didn't want him and Liu Jing to develop any psychological barriers over someone like Zhang Jianguang, whom he had just met. It wasn't worth it, not even a little.

Liu Jing understood Lu Qiuyang's intention and looked at him gratefully.

Gru was about to make a move, but Liu Jing quickly stopped him, squatted down, and said, "Zhang, you forced me into this, so don't blame me. From now on, if you want to play, whether it's black or white, I'll play along. You decide what to do."

Zhang Jianguang had lost his will and was barely recognizable, staring blankly at him.

Liu Jing continued, "Starting tomorrow, the traffic police will continue to impound your vehicles. This time, they'll impound all trucks, whether they're empty or not. No one's word will matter. I'm telling you this in advance; you can decide for yourself whether to pay or not." After saying

this, Liu Jing took out his phone from his waist, smashed it to pieces, and told the two of them to leave.

Chapter 129 Walking into the Abyss

"Ten steps, one kill; a thousand miles, a trail left behind. The deed done, he dusts off his clothes and departs, concealing his identity and name."

Liu Jing didn't kill anyone, but he beat someone up. He lacked the lofty ideals of ancient heroes, possessed no extraordinary martial arts skills, and had no desire to bear the loneliness of the common people. He was merely an ordinary, insignificant figure in the mundane world, striving to improve his life like many others. But even ordinary people have feelings, and they too can feel anger. Thus, Zhang Jianguang suffered.

The anger of a commoner may not lead to bloodshed across a thousand miles, but it can certainly splatter blood within five steps.

If Liu Jing had chosen to compromise again, his feud with Zhang Jianguang might have ended there. But he was determined to take revenge, and many things changed as a result. Zhang Jianguang would absolutely regret going to the criminal investigation team, not only for the physical pain but also for the chain reaction that followed. His life would be completely overturned, his glory forever lost.

The world is so wondrous; even a butterfly can change history, let alone beating someone up in broad daylight.

The three men beat Zhang Jianguang thoroughly, then left with a sense of satisfaction, their hearts filled with camaraderie and heroic spirit. The car sped onto the main road, the car still echoing with hearty laughter. Lu Qiuyang, driving, turned around and said, "You had such a good time today, want to go to my friend's for a drink?"

"Some other time, Yuxia has already found a place." Liu Jing smiled at him, took out his phone, and dialed Yuxia's number.

The call connected quickly, and Yuxia said, "All done? How was it? Did you go too far?" She hadn't said anything when Liu Jing left, because she understood the young man, but that didn't mean she wasn't worried.

"No, just some minor injuries, except for a broken nose."

"Hehe, really?" Yuxia smiled gently, her expression beautiful regardless of her mood. "It's good that you didn't go too far. We're in room 201 at the Municipal Public Security Bureau's guesthouse, you guys should come over quickly."

"Which Municipal Public Security Bureau?" Liu Jing asked, naively.

"Guess for yourself." Yuxia laughed and hung up the phone impatiently.

Liu Jing was speechless, utterly exasperated. After a fight, he made the criminal police captain give false testimony and then openly ate and drank lavishly at the Municipal Public Security Bureau's guesthouse—it was utterly lawless.

Liu Jing put away his phone and said to Lu Qiuyang, "Go to the Municipal Public Security Bureau Guesthouse."

"Why there?" Lu Qiuyang and Gru both expressed surprise.

Liu Jing chuckled, "Not only are you going there, but a good friend is waiting for you."

The two exchanged glances, not asking any further questions or taking it to heart. Liu Jing thought for a moment and then asked, "Qiuyang, when will your company officially start operating?"

"The first loan has arrived, and construction will officially begin next week," Lu Qiuyang said confidently, then added with a smile, "When is your repair shop opening? I'll pay you back anytime."

"No rush, I won't be there until the end of the month," Liu Jing replied, then said directly, "Qiuyang, my friend is quitting her part-time job and is planning to work for you. Since you're starting next week, how about I have her go over there in the next couple of days?"

"Sure, have her come over," Lu Qiuyang said without hesitation, then added with a smile, "I don't have an accountant yet, so I'll have her as the finance manager. But, hey, she'll also have to be the cashier."

"Hehe, no problem," Liu Jing didn't say anything more, but she was very happy. With Lu Qiuyang's abilities and current personality, the company will definitely grow bigger and bigger. Xu Yan, as the finance manager and a veteran, has unlimited potential. In addition, Lu Qiuyang will inevitably employ many clansmen, which will absolutely guarantee both personal relationships and safety.

The car sped along and soon arrived at the Municipal Public Security Bureau Guesthouse. The three chatted and laughed as they went upstairs, heading straight for room 201.

It was an ordinary little private room, but the atmosphere was very harmonious. The dishes on the table emitted an enticing aroma. Zheng Lei, Yu Xia, and Little Tiger sat around the table. Captain Zheng, beaming, was chatting amiably with Little Tiger, while Yu Xia, standing to the side, seemed like an outsider.

"You're here! Come in quickly!" Yu Xia was the first to notice the three and hurriedly stood up to greet them. Fang Xi turned around, saw her lover was safe and sound, and also stood up sweetly. Zheng Lei followed suit, smiling and saying, "Brother Liu is back. Is everything alright?"

"No." Liu Jing led Lu Qiuyang and Gru in, saying gratefully and excitedly, "I'm sorry to have Captain Zheng help me with this."

"Oh, it's nothing." Zheng Lei said nonchalantly, "It's good to teach this kind of person a lesson."

This didn't seem right, did it? Liu Jing chuckled inwardly, then turned to the two men and said, “Qiuyang, Gelu, let me introduce you. This is Captain Zheng Lei of the Municipal Criminal Investigation Team. Captain Zheng, this is my college classmate, Lu Qiuyang, who now owns a real estate company; this is Gelu, the security manager of Qiuyang's company, and also my good brother. They grew up together, both Tibetan. If there are any issues with the association in the future, you can communicate with them to resolve them.”

Both Zheng Lei and Lu Qiuyang were surprised by Liu Jing's introduction. Zheng Lei wasn't in uniform, and although they heard Liu Jing call him "captain," they didn't expect him to be the captain of the criminal investigation team; Zheng Lei hadn't expected Liu Jing to know people from the association and even help him in a fight. However, Zheng Lei was also happy to know people from the association, as it would make dealing with certain issues much easier in the future.

After exchanging pleasantries, Liu Jing introduced Little Tiger and Yuxia, and everyone took their seats.

Although the people at the table came from very different backgrounds, they were all straightforward individuals, and after the initial awkwardness, the atmosphere quickly warmed up.

As the saying goes, the People's Army can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk; the People's Police will down a drink in no time. Zheng Lei embodied both, frequently toasting everyone. Gru, naturally bold and a heavy drinker since childhood, also let loose, engaging in a drinking contest with Zheng Lei. The two were evenly matched, their drinks flowing freely. Yu Xia and Little Tiger also had a decent capacity for alcohol, forming a three-person team with Lu Qiuyang, taking turns drinking. Liu Jing drank a cup with both Zheng Lei and Gru, then watched from the sidelines.

The banquet was extremely lively and enthusiastic.

Liu Jing smashed Zhang Jianguang's phone to prevent him from taking pictures and causing unnecessary trouble, but he forgot that some people have more than one phone, especially important people. Whether Zhang Jianguang was important or not is another matter, but he happened to have two phones. He hadn't intended to take pictures, but Liu Jing reminded him, so he quietly took out his second phone and photographed the three leaving.

After taking the photos, Zhang Jianguang lay on the ground catching his breath, regaining some strength. He struggled to his feet, enduring the excruciating pain all over his body, his hand still touching his bleeding nose. He staggered towards his car, but his legs gave way, and he fell again.

"Ah!" Zhang Jianguang was covered in injuries, and this fall left him dazed and confused,

causing his nosebleed to worsen. "Mr. Zhang! What happened to you?" A taxi pulled up, and the bald bodyguard jumped out in alarm. Following Liu Jing's instructions, Zheng Lei released Zhang Jianguang first, then went to dinner with Yu Xia and Little Tiger, releasing everyone else. The bald bodyguard returned to Ideal Group and ran into him.

"You...you're back?" Zhang Jianguang finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the bald man.

"Mr. Zhang, who did this?" The bald man tore a piece of his shirt and handed it to him, then helped his master towards the car.

Zhang Jianguang covered his nose, gritting his teeth, "Who...who else could it be?"

"That kid?" The bald man paused, then roared, "Mr. Zhang, don't worry, I'll have someone take care of him and get justice for you!" He helped Zhang Jianguang into the car.

Zhang Jianguang leaned back in his seat, slowly shaking his head. Though ignorant, he knew the power of the Tibetan Association and knew he couldn't afford to offend them. The bald man was just bragging; the police openly protecting Liu Jing made him realize things had gone too far. He wisely kept quiet and drove Zhang Jianguang to the hospital.

"Mr. Zhang, hang in there, we'll be there soon." The bald man drove fast, glancing back frequently, his eyes full of concern. He and Zhang Jianguang had known each other since childhood, skipping school, fighting, stealing girls' bags together. Zhang Jianguang had become the group's general manager thanks to his sister's connections, and he had risen in rank, enjoying wealth and luxury. Therefore, his feelings for Zhang Jianguang were genuine.

"It's nothing, just...flesh and blood," Zhang Jianguang said weakly, panting heavily.

"What's next?" the bald man asked, seething with resentment.

"Hmph... Ah!" Zhang Jianguang had intended to give a cold snort, but the aggravation of his nose injury caused him to scream and clutch his nose, collapsing onto the car seat. "Mr. Zhang!" the bald man cried out, trying to stop the car. Zhang Jianguang waved his hand, indicating it wasn't necessary. The bald man turned his face away in pain and continued to accelerate.

Zhang Jianguang sat up again, his gaze fixed on the road ahead with a sinister glint in his eyes, and said fiercely, "After the hospital, go straight to the criminal investigation team. This time, I'm going to take the right path and make sure they never recover!"

The bald man glanced at him, moved his lips, but ultimately couldn't bring himself to do it. He wanted to persuade Zhang Jianguang to let it go, but knew it would be useless. He didn't understand how Zhang Jianguang was going to take the right path, or how he was going to make sure they never recovered, but he knew very well that even if the assault charge was upheld, with the man's connections in the police force, he would at most have to pay some medical expenses, and wouldn't even be detained.

Liu Jing and the others acted with great restraint; Zhang Jianguang wasn't seriously injured. They stopped the bleeding, applied some medicine, and put a brace on his nose, and the treatment was quickly completed. However, his appearance was a sight to behold. His eyes were bruised and swollen, his nose was bandaged, his head was swollen like a pig's, and his lips were so swollen they couldn't close, looking like two small sausages twisted across his face. Coupled with his designer clothes stained with blood and dirt, he was practically a monster, avoided wherever he went.

The bald man looked at him, then said with pity, "Mr. Zhang, how about we wait a couple of days until your injuries heal a bit?"

"No, right now! I want them to see!" Zhang Jianguang's eyes blazed with a triumphant ruthlessness.

The bald man hesitated for a moment, then said, "Then go back and change your clothes first?"

"No, I'm going like this." Zhang Jianguang had never suffered such a loss before, and his stubbornness had flared up.

The bald man had no choice but to drive the self-satisfied Zhang Jianguang to the criminal investigation team.

Life offers many choices, and wise people always make the right ones. If Zhang Jianguang hadn't gone, things would have returned to their original course. But his going inevitably pushed many people, including himself, into the abyss.

Chapter 130: The Situation Escalated

. As the city's Public Security Bureau Chief, Li Zhong wasn't particularly outstanding, but he was cautious, just like his name suggested—conventional, obedient, and highly regarded by the municipal party committee and higher authorities. This wasn't surprising; obedience is always more popular than genius.

An interesting story circulated about Chief Li's official career. He was originally a veteran political worker. One lunchtime, the political commissar asked him to bring some dumplings, preferably with a three-delicacy filling. When he arrived at the canteen, the three-delicacy filling was gone, only beef was left. Normally, one would choose to buy them directly and then go back to explain, perhaps making a phone call. But he didn't; he went back personally to explain the situation.

The political commissar said ground beef would be fine, but when he returned to the canteen, they were out of ground beef, so he went back again. The political commissar smiled and said, "Just buy whatever you like." This chance encounter made the political commissar take a liking to this simple and honest man. From then on, Li Zhong rose along with the political commissar, step by step climbing to the position of bureau chief.

Personality determines everything, and Director Li's job wasn't easy; he was always worried about problems arising below. Not long ago, the bathhouse incident had even resulted in Vice Governor Guo's daughter and son-in-law being detained overnight, nearly scaring him to death. Fortunately, his former political commissar, Deputy Secretary Yan of the Municipal Party Committee, comforted him. And now, Director Li was heading out again with a small bag, intending to report on recent work to his former political commissar and ask for some new instructions.

"Oh dear! Who's this?" Director Li had just reached the stairwell when he was startled by someone coming towards him. He looked closely and then realized, "Isn't this Director Zhang? What happened to him?"

Not many people could frighten a police chief, but Zhang Jianguang could. He stormed into the criminal investigation team, specifically asking for Zheng Lei, but he wasn't there. He had someone call Zheng Lei's cell phone, and Zheng Lei bluntly told him: impossible, the reason being that Liu Jing had been drinking with him the whole time. Instead of being angry, he was delighted, determined to take down Zheng Lei as well. He rushed to the municipal police station, luckily catching Director Li red-handed.

"Hmph! You won't believe me when I tell you," Zhang Jianguang pointed to his face, "It was all thanks to Director Li's excellent subordinate!"

"How could that be! Who?" Director Li asked, stunned.

"Criminal Investigation Team Captain Zheng Lei," Zhang Jianguang said angrily, pointing sharply, "He broke the law, ordered people to beat me up like this, and even gave false testimony. Now he's leading those guys in a feast at the guesthouse. Director Li, what do you say we do?" "

Is that so?" Director Li was shocked and bewildered. The guesthouse was right behind the municipal police station; he unconsciously glanced back.

"Go see for yourself!" Zhang Jianguang grew even angrier, grinning maliciously. "I took photos of those guys who beat me with my phone. The evidence is conclusive. Now let's see what you're going to do about it!"

Director Li, a veteran of many years in the police force, asked with a glint in his eye, "That's easy to handle, but how do you know it was Zheng Lei who ordered it?"

Zhang Jianguang was incredibly arrogant, gesticulating wildly, "I just got back from the criminal investigation team. He told me on the phone that it was impossible, that those guys had been drinking with him the whole time. If it wasn't him who ordered it, why would he cover it up? Is the criminal investigation team leader so powerful? Our Ideal Group pays tens of millions in taxes every year. Can your police station really protect us?"

"Really?" Director Li asked incredulously. He found it hard to believe. Zheng Lei's character and abilities were impeccable; Zhang Jianguang's assessment was incomparable.

"Don't believe me? Ask him!" Zhang Jianguang pointed to the bald bodyguard behind him.

"That's right, I went with President Zhang," the bald bodyguard said confidently.

Director Li's face was ashen, and he trembled with anger. "Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, I'll call him back immediately. If it's true, he'll be dealt with seriously." After the bathhouse incident, his biggest worry was his subordinates committing disciplinary violations.

Director Li finished speaking and prepared to lead Zhang Jianguang back to his office.

"Director...Director?" a weak voice came from behind.

The three turned around, and a young policeman stood cautiously on the stairs. Director Li said, "Oh, Xiao Zhao, what's the matter?"

"Yes, something's the matter." Xiao Zhao looked at Zhang Jianguang and nodded nervously.

Director Li softened his expression and said gently, "I'm busy right now. Call me later." This young man had just finished his probationary period and hadn't been officially hired yet. He was obedient, honest, and had beautiful handwriting, which Director Li liked very much. He had specially transferred him from the police station to the political department.

"Director, I...I have a very urgent matter. Just give me a minute." The young man was nervous, but his tone was firm.

"Alright then." Director Li sighed and said to Zhang Jianguang, "Mr. Zhang, please sit in my office for a bit, I'll be right there."

Zhang Jianguang, rather impatiently, shook his head and led the bald man away. Director Li glared at him with utter disgust, then turned back and said, "Speak, what is it?"

Seeing Zhang Jianguang walk away, Xiao Zhao leaned forward and said mysteriously, "Director, I just came back from the guesthouse and was on my way back to my office when I overheard your conversation!"

"You just came back from the guesthouse?!" Director Li jumped, leaning forward. "Tell me quickly, what did you see?"

"I saw..." Xiao Zhao looked around and whispered in the director's ear, "I saw that kid from the bathhouse last time among the people having dinner with Captain Zheng!"

"You're not mistaken?" Director Li's heart raced, and his heart leaped into his throat.

“Absolutely no mistake.” The young policeman puffed out his chest, as if he had accomplished a great feat. “Have you forgotten? I was interning there. His electric scooter had been sitting in the station for several days. I saw it when he came to pick it up. Oh, and I even cleaned it!”

Director Li frowned, his gaze deepening. He didn’t care who cleaned the scooter, but he believed it was true. No wonder that brat Zheng Lei gave false testimony; so that’s what happened.

Director Li was always cautious. After thinking for a moment, he said, “Xiao Zhao, go to my office and ask. I’ll wait here.”

“Okay, sure.” Xiao Zhao ran off quickly and returned, saying, “Director, it’s definitely him. He said his name is Liu Jing, and there are two others from the Tibetan Association.”

The taxi driver from last time was Tibetan, so it seemed there was no mistake. Director Li nodded slowly, finally no longer doubting.

The young policeman’s eyes widened, still excitedly waiting. Director Li snapped out of his reverie, nodding and saying, "Little Zhao, you did a great job reporting the problem to your superiors promptly. I'll give you a thumbs up."

"Yes, thank you, Director." Little Zhao saluted and happily ran back.

A good young man, teachable indeed. Director Li thought with deep feeling, recalling his own past.

The matter had once again become entangled with Vice Governor Guo, putting Director Li in a dilemma. If Zhang Jianguang's words were true, punishing Zheng Lei would be tantamount to offending Vice Governor Guo; not punishing him would be unfair, and if Zhang Jianguang went around causing trouble, making a city-wide spectacle, it would be quite a headache. What to do?

Since it was difficult to handle, it might be better to let the Guo family handle it themselves. After careful consideration, Director Li decided to call Guo Jun. Both of them lived in the city and had occasional contact, making it easier to talk to him.

The call connected, and Director Li briefly explained the situation before tentatively asking, "Secretary Guo, the person involved is still in my office. What do you think we should do about this?"

Guo Jun was surprised, but since it involved Tibetans, he guessed it was Lu Qiuyang, so he frowned and asked, "I know those two. How could they beat someone in the street? Even if they did, there would be a reason. Didn't you ask what the reason was?"

Asking meant deciding on a course of action; why call beforehand? Director Li smiled ingratiatingly, "Secretary Guo, this concerns your sister. How could I ask without first informing you?"

Guo Jun rolled his eyes, speechless. Out of some kind of reluctance, or perhaps to give his sister some hope, Liu Jing had another girlfriend, which he hadn't told anyone, not even his parents. Now, it seemed, they were coming directly to him.

"Secretary Guo? Secretary Guo?" Guo Jun remained silent for a long time, and Director Li cautiously urged him on.

Guo Jun sighed, saying helplessly, "Fine, I'll go myself and see how Director Li handles cases, is that alright?" Liu Jing had saved his sister, and for that reason alone, he had no choice. Besides, Director Li was a coward and knew nothing about the case; he couldn't explain without going himself.

"Okay, good, haha," Director Li chuckled.

Guo Jun suddenly asked, "By the way, who did you say that person was?"

"The general manager of Ideal Group," Director Li emphasized calmly.

"Ideal Group?" Guo Jun thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll be there right away."

After hanging up the phone, Guo Jun called Secretary Wu again, asking him to come with him. The fundraising activities of the Ideal Group had put both the provincial and municipal levels on edge. Guo Ting was the Executive Vice Governor, and since the matter was related to the Ideal Group, he wanted Secretary Wu to come along and listen in. He didn't know why, but he wanted to hear it all, even though Secretary Wu was just his personal secretary.

Director Li, as if grasping at a straw, excitedly returned to his office. Zhang Jianguang, who was waiting impatiently, said discontentedly, "Director Li, you're finally back! What's going on with this? You have to give me an explanation!"

"Hehe, Mr. Zhang, don't worry." Director Li put down his small bag and said amiably, "I just called the relevant leaders in the city. They said they'd be coming too. We'll go to the guesthouse now and stop them there."

"Why call the city leaders? You're the police chief; do you need to call the city leaders to deal with your subordinates?" Zhang Jianguang was puzzled, confused, and inexplicably worried. The bald bodyguard also sensed something was amiss, and was also dissatisfied with Zhang Jianguang's attitude. Asking for a favor and then acting so arrogantly—wasn't he just asking for trouble?

"You're major taxpayers, it's only right that the city leaders pay attention," Director Li said, an honest man, equally honest in his deception.

"That's true," Zhang Jianguang replied arrogantly.

"Alright, let's go then, don't keep the city leaders waiting." Director Li politely opened the door.

Zhang Jianguang nodded his disfigured head and strode out. Director Li stared at his retreating figure, a cold smile playing on his lips. Fool, if you want an explanation, go ask Vice Governor Guo!

Chapter 131 A World Turned Upside Down

Around four o'clock, most of the heat had dissipated from the ground, the temperature gradually becoming comfortable, and the sky was exceptionally clear, as if washed by the wind, clean except for the sunlight.

There were people leaving work early on the street. Director Li sat in his car, his gaze weary. He couldn't remember the last time he had casually walked the streets in such weather. He never thought the bureau chief was anything special, but he still couldn't slack off, let alone relax. He'd struggled for most of his life, and only after reaching this position did he realize that adapting from habit to reality wasn't something everyone could do.

"It's what I should do, it's my duty," Director Li replied casually, then asked, "By the way, why did he hit you?" Director Li didn't specify who, using only the vague term "he.

" Zhang Jianguang's already large face flushed slightly, and he mumbled, "At first it was because of a woman, then it was just jealousy."

"Oh," Director Li seemed to understand, smiling calmly, "And you too, Zheng Lei is over thirty and still unmarried, you have so many women, just let him have his way." "

This…" Zhang Jianguang stammered, speechless. He was referring to Liu Jing, but he'd already falsely accused Zheng Lei of instigating it, so Director Li's interpretation wasn't wrong.

Director Li tapped his knee with his fingers, glanced contemptuously at his large face, then looked out the window. *Little brat, the Vice Governor's son-in-law would compete with you for a woman? You think you're worthy?* He certainly understood what was going on; it was intentional.

The guesthouse was not far from the Municipal Bureau, and the car arrived quickly. The three waited a while before an Audi pulled up, carrying Guo Jun and Secretary Wu. Director Li was taken aback for a moment, then jogged over: "Secretary Guo is here! I didn't expect Secretary Wu to be here too."

"Hello, Director Li, thank you for troubling you again." Secretary Wu politely shook his hand.

"Secretary Wu, what are you saying? How are Vice Governor Guo and Director Bai doing?" Director Li's attitude was polite and humble, but the problem was that his son was beside him, and he insisted on asking his secretary.

"They're both fine. Director Bai mentioned you to me not long ago."

"Oh! Is that so?" Knowing it was just polite talk, Director Li was still flattered.

Guo Jun patiently waited for Director Li to finish his flattery. "Director Li, where is he?" Guo Jun asked.

"Oh, he's inside," Director Li replied, giving a knowing look. "That mangled figure is Zhang Jianguang."

Guo Jun and Secretary Wu exchanged glances and couldn't help but smile, thinking in unison, "Liu Jing is ruthless. He's a big boss, after all. How could he be beaten like this?

" "These two are city leaders!" Director Li casually introduced them, leading everyone inside.

Zhang Jianguang wanted to go over, but considering his appearance, he refrained. He had expected Director Li to give him a proper introduction, but instead, he was gone so easily, and followed him in, quite annoyed. Director

Li noticed the change in his expression and became uneasy. Zhang Jianguang was incompetent; if he angered Guo Jun and Secretary Wu, and they took their anger out on him, it wouldn't be worth it. Perhaps he should bring Li Xiang along, regardless of right or wrong, and let them handle it themselves? Director Li had a new idea. He deliberately lagged behind and secretly made a phone call to Li Xiang.

After entering... Director Li asked the waiter for directions and led everyone to room 201.

Liu Jing, Captain Zheng, and the others ate for over an hour, their drinking getting increasingly heated. As expected, the criminal investigation team called, saying that Zhang Jianguang had gone to report a crime, but Zheng Lei brushed it off with a few words. Except for Little Tiger, who was a little worried, no one took it seriously.

Upstairs, Director Li cautiously asked, "Secretary Guo, Secretary Wu, if it's confirmed they're really there, should we question them here, or take them back to the station?" Taking them back to the station wasn't quite right, and leaving them here wasn't ideal either; he passed the buck again.

Guo Jun and Secretary Wu exchanged a glance. Secretary Wu calmly said, "Let's ask them briefly here. If the matter is indeed serious, then we should take them back to the station. You can't break the rules of your Public Security Bureau."

"That's right, that's right." Knowing they wouldn't agree to take them back to the station, Director Li nodded repeatedly.

Zhang Jianguang sensed something was wrong; his brow furrowed involuntarily, and he looked at Director Li with displeasure. Secretary Wu smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang, you're the person involved, what do you think of this arrangement?"

"Is that even a question?" Zhang Jianguang pointed to his face. "The matter is right here!"

"Alright, let's do it this way." Secretary Wu nodded generously.

Room 201 was at the front. Halfway there, Director Li turned back and said, "Secretary Guo, Secretary Wu, please wait a moment. I'll go in and take a look first, then I'll come back to invite you." They were acquaintances; if he went in rashly and accidentally called them out, it wouldn't look good, and he'd be in a difficult position.

"Okay, go in." Guo Jun understood, but he was speechless at Director Li. "You're the police chief; we're just observing. You should do what you need to do."

"That's settled then." Director Li nodded to Zhang Jianguang again and headed straight for Room 201.

Everyone was enjoying their meal when the door opened silently, and Director Li stood there with a serious expression. Everyone looked at each other, but immediately understood, and stood up one after another. Yu Xia smiled and spoke first, "Director Li, you've arrived? Please come in and have a seat."

Director Li was also taken aback. He had intended to criticize Zheng Lei a few times as a formality, but unexpectedly, Yu Xia was there as well. He had no choice but to walk over and look her over, saying, "Xiao Qin, what are you doing here?"

Everyone's gaze turned to Liu Jing. Yu Xia pointed to Liu Jing and Fang Xi and said generously, "This is Liu Jing, and this is his girlfriend, Zheng Fang Xi. I'm currently living in their apartment." Turning back to Liu Jing, she said, "Liu Jing, this is Director Li from the Municipal Bureau. You can talk to him about your matter; it's no problem." She didn't know that Liu Jing and Director Li had met before.

"Hello, Director Li." Liu Jing and Fang Xi bowed to each other without much further expression.

"Oh, hello." Director Li was almost stunned, completely bewildered. It wasn't a secret in the Public Security Bureau that Yu Xia was living with a young man, but he never expected it to be Liu Jing. What was even stranger was that she had a girlfriend nearby, and Guo Jun and Secretary Wu were also outside. What the hell was going on? Who was this guy dating?

Yu Xia understood, of course, and continued, "Director Li, Liu Jing was framed by the Ideal Group today. Fortunately, Captain Zheng helped to clarify the matter. You came here because Zhang Jianguang must have told you something, right? You can't believe that scoundrel!"

"Framed?" Director Li looked at Liu Jing and asked Zheng Lei, "Zheng Lei, what happened?"

Zheng Lei said, "This afternoon, Liu Jing was set up in a sex trap at the Qinglin Hotel, which belongs to the Ideal Group. Fortunately, Director Guan arrived in time and transferred the case to us. We've basically identified Zhang Jianguang as the mastermind, but we don't have concrete evidence." Zheng Lei was very considerate and hadn't forgotten Director Guan.

"I see," Director Li roughly understood.

Zheng Lei continued, "The Ideal Group and Liu Jing's company have a cooperative relationship. They went to Bangkok together to discuss business. Zhang Jianguang sexually assaulted one of Liu Jing's female colleagues, but Liu Jing rescued her, which created a conflict between them. Subsequently, Liu Jing and the female colleague were attacked in Bangkok. After escaping, they immediately returned to China and reported the case to the team. We contacted the Bangkok police, but there haven't been any further results."

"Is that so?" Director Li was surprised, not expecting the matter to be so complicated. Zheng Lei nodded, feigning innocence.

"Alright, we'll talk about that later." Director Li turned to Liu Jing and said, "I won't ask what you did this afternoon. Zhang Jianguang is outside now, but don't worry, Secretary Guo and Secretary Wu are here too. You can decide what to do."

Everyone's eyes widened simultaneously. Liu Jing, Lu Qiuyang, and Fang Xi hadn't expected Guo Jun and Secretary Wu to come; Yu Xia and Zheng Lei realized that Director Li knew Liu Jing; only Gru remained calm, as he didn't recognize anyone.

Director Li left, and Yu Xia quickly asked, "Who are Secretary Guo and Secretary Wu?"

"Guo Jun is Guo Guo's brother, the secretary of the Municipal Youth League Committee; Secretary Wu is Vice Governor Guo's secretary."

Zheng Lei looked at them in surprise and asked, "Who is Guo Guo?"

"Guo... Guo Guo's name is Guo Yang, my college classmate Qiuyang, Vice Governor Guo's daughter."

"Oh, then it's alright." Zheng Lei finally understood; even Gru understood. They were clearly here to help.

Fang Xi glanced at her husband, feeling a little bitter. She hadn't been able to help.

The only one, General Manager Zhao, was now an enemy. Liu Jing took her hand, gently squeezing it, a warm current flowing between their hearts. Life is not easy; help is needed, but ultimately, one must rely on oneself. A man's strong beliefs require the silent support and companionship of those around him.

The door opened, and a waiter brought in several chairs. Director Li led Guo Jun, Secretary Wu, and the arrogant Zhang Jianguang, among others, inside.

Guo Jun and Secretary Wu glanced at everyone, then pulled up chairs and sat down near the table; Director Li didn't want to sit with Zhang Jianguang and the others, but couldn't move closer, so he simply shifted to the side; Zhang Jianguang glanced at Liu Jing with a shrewd, commanding air before sitting down with an air of authority; only the bald man remained seated, cautiously standing beside Zhang Jianguang.

The scene was clearly divided, quite intriguing, as if a group of people were surrounding the table, staring at Zhang Jianguang and the bald man. Although Director Li and Zhang Jianguang were very close, they were both wearing uniforms.

Zhang Jianguang was incredibly arrogant, but his appearance was truly appalling; he hadn't even changed his clothes. Yu Xia and Fang Xi almost burst out laughing; Zheng Lei couldn't help but chuckle; Gru squinted, meeting Zhang Jianguang's gaze impolitely; Liu Jing and Lu Qiuyang appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly they were both amused and exasperated. This was a restaurant, yet so many people were gathered for a trial—it was truly bizarre.

Guo Jun glanced at Liu Jing, then nodded to Fang Xi, and spoke first: "Director Li, it's getting late, let's begin."

"Alright." Director Li pulled out a small notebook with an air of importance, as if he were in a meeting, and said slowly, "Mr. Zhang, you are the one who filed the report, and the city leaders are also here. Please tell us the situation first."

All eyes were on Zhang Jianguang. Zhang Jianguang stared at Liu Jing, chuckled, and said, "The situation is all right here. You all saw what I looked like; it was those three who beat me up. And Captain Zheng, when I reported it to the criminal investigation team, he said he'd been eating with them all along, clearly covering for them. Director Li, you know how to handle this kind of thing, right?"

Zhang Jianguang's ignorance and arrogance caused everyone to frown, including the bald bodyguard.

Director Li, on the other hand, remained calm: "Mr. Zhang, we believe your account, but our police station values evidence. Do you have any evidence?"

"Of course I do!" Zhang Jianguang stood up, pulled out his phone, and said to Liu Jing, "Kid, didn't expect that, did you? You thought you could take pictures just because you smashed my phone? I have two. What do you have to say now?"

Guo Jun, Secretary Wu, Lu Qiuyang, and Gru all looked at Liu Jing; Little Tiger looked worried and even more concerned; Yu Xia and Zheng Lei remained calm; Liu Jing smiled nonchalantly, as if he didn't care about the mistake at all.

Zhang Jianguang pulled out the photo, raised it abruptly, and snarled, "You, surnamed Zheng, didn't you say you were having dinner with them? I clearly have a picture of the three of them on my phone, the time is 2:45. As the captain of the criminal investigation team, you openly protected them and gave false testimony for criminals. How do you explain this now?"

"What does this prove?" Liu Jing took out his own phone, fiddled with it for a while, and then took a picture of Zhang Jianguang. "I just took this. Believe it or not, the time is also 2:45. You can change the time on your phone anytime. Who knows where you took it or when you took it? That photo of yours is meaningless except to prove that you violated my privacy."

Everyone laughed, and Little Tiger was relieved.

Zheng Lei interjected, "Besides this issue, there are two other points: your photo shows only their backs, so we need to verify who it is; and most importantly, the scene you photographed isn't a beating scene. Even if it's confirmed to be those three, it doesn't prove they were the ones who did the beating. From a criminal investigation perspective, to put it politely, your photo can only be used as a reference; to put it bluntly

, it's completely useless." No one has time to take photos while being beaten, so Zheng Lei didn't take Zhang Jianguang's claim of having a photo to heart. Yu Xia remained calm because she understood this; as for Director Li, he hadn't bothered to look at the photo at all.

The crowd burst into laughter, then focused their attention on Zhang Jianguang, watching to see how he would continue his performance. Surprisingly, Zhang Jianguang's eyes held a mocking smile, still displaying arrogance and contempt, as if he didn't care. Did he have more evidence?

Director Li was also surprised and tentatively asked, "Mr. Zhang, if there's no other evidence, we can find some eyewitnesses at the scene."

"Thank you, Director Li, but we don't need witnesses," Zhang Jianguang said, striking a very nonchalant pose, which unfortunately didn't match his appearance.

Director Li calmly asked, "Does Mr. Zhang have any other evidence?"

"Hmph!" Zhang Jianguang gave a smug, sinister laugh, suddenly pulling out a small object and holding it high. "I knew you'd say that. Too bad, I have even more direct evidence! Now, look at your own feet!"

Liu Jing and the other two lowered their heads, but only Gelug looked at his own feet. Zhang Jianguang was holding a shoelace buckle; Liu Jing and Lu Qiuyang were wearing Czech-style leather shoes without laces.

Sure enough, Gelug was wearing a pair of very old, loose leather shoes. The buckle on his right shoelace was broken, and the laces were undone, but the careless Gelug hadn't noticed.

"Cherang! Cherang!" Gelug was furious, suddenly raising his head, glaring, and cursing in Tibetan. Lu Qiuyang quickly stopped him. Gelug was cursing, "You dog-meat-eating bastard!" Tibetans highly value dogs, considering them loyal companions, and those who eat dog meat are heartless.

Zhang Jianguang didn't understand, but he knew it was an insult, and his smugness only grew stronger: "Director Li, this should be enough evidence, right? Of course, from Captain Zheng's perspective, it only proves that guy is the only one. But it's okay, just detain him first, I don't care."

The beating wasn't a big deal, but the shoelace buckle was solid evidence. Although Zhang Jianguang was foolish, he was still the CEO of a large group and had a certain social standing; mishandling it could have consequences.

Everyone was silent. Guo Jun and Secretary Wu didn't know what to say; Director Li and Zheng Lei looked troubled; Yu Xia's beautiful face was tense; Fang Xi's heart was in her throat again; Liu Jing and Lu Qiuyang wanted to step forward, but that would mean throwing Zheng Lei in too, leading to a fierce struggle.

Sunlight streamed in through the window, the atmosphere in the private room was no longer warm, and the dishes on the table no longer emitted heat. Only the smug Zhang Jianguang and the furious Gru were exchanging angry glances.

"Bang!" Gru slammed his hand on the table, "So what if he hit me? So what if I'm detained? I'll..."

"Gru!" Liu Jing exclaimed in surprise, and Yu Xia called out at the same time.

Gru was taken aback, looked down at Liu Jing, and then glanced at Yu Xia. Liu Jing had only called out instinctively, without any real idea, and looked at Yu Xia expectantly. Yu Xia winked slyly and said to Gru, "Brother Gru, let me see your shoelaces."

Gru didn't understand what was going on, but Liu Jing realized and exclaimed with delight, "Gru, hurry up!"

Everyone was captivated, wondering what clever trick Yu Xia had up her sleeve. Gru mechanically untied his shoelaces, and Liu Jing took them and handed them to Yu Xia.

Yu Xia glanced at Zhang Jianguang, then at Guo Jun, and nonchalantly picked up a lighter, lit it with a snap, and set the shoelaces on fire in front of everyone. This was the simplest, most direct, and most effective way, but it was hard to think of in this situation. Yu Xia was always bold and daring, so only she had thought of it.

Everyone's eyes and mouths gaped open, both amused and relieved, especially Director Li. Even if Gelug wanted to, he couldn't just detain him. Detaining a Tibetan would require the police to give a lot of explanations to the association, which would be quite troublesome.

"What are you doing? Director Li, look!" Zhang Jianguang panicked as the evidence was openly burned.

"This..." Director Li was bewildered.

The bald bodyguard rushed forward, trying to seize the evidence. Liu Jing and Lu Qiuyang simultaneously jumped out and blocked his way. The bald man dared not speak out, and the two stared at each other until the shoelaces were burned to ashes.

Yu Xia, her beautiful face taut, stomped out the ashes and said coldly, "Gelug's shoelaces were long gone. You not only framed Liu Jing, but now you've brought this thing on, and you're still not done?"

Framed? Guo Jun and Secretary Wu exchanged a glance.

The bald man slowly retreated to Zhang Jianguang's side, and Liu Jing and Lu Qiuyang happily sat back down in their chairs. Zhang Jianguang, furious and enraged, demanded, "Director Li, how do

you explain this?" Director Li turned to Guo Jun and said, "Secretary Guo, look..."

Guo Jun glanced at Yu Xia, rubbed his nose, and said, "I didn't see anything."

"Is there no law anymore?" Zhang Jianguang roared, raising his hands in fury.

"Bang!" Another person slammed their hand on the table, this time it was Secretary Wu.

Secretary Wu looked around and said impassionedly, "Director Li, after receiving your call, Vice Governor Guo took it very seriously and immediately ordered me to come. Comrade Liu Jing assisted the police in solving the Yulong Bath Center incident, which was an outstanding achievement in the province's spiritual civilization construction. Vice Governor Guo instructed that such a citizen must not be wronged. Now the photos cannot be used as evidence, and the shoelaces are fabricated. You must thoroughly investigate the cause and effect of this matter. We cannot wrong an innocent person, nor can we tolerate a guilty one."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jianguang was immediately dumbfounded. He thought Secretary Wu was the secretary of a "city leader," how did he suddenly become the vice governor's secretary? Qian openly sided with Liu Jing.

Director Li stood up: "We will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly in accordance with Vice Governor Guo's instructions."

Secretary Wu pointed at Yu Xia and said: "This lady just said that Comrade Liu Jing was once framed. What happened?"

"This..." Director Li gave Zheng Lei a look.

Zheng Lei glanced at Zhang Jianguang, stood up and said: "Let me explain." So he started from Thailand and repeated the whole process, much more detailed than he had told Director Li.

Guo Jun and Secretary Wu were surprised and also became alert. Guo Jun asked: "Xiao Liu, what business did you go to Thailand to discuss?"

"Oh, we..."

Liu Jing was about to speak when the door to the private room opened, and Li Xiang and Zhao Tonghai actually came in together. Liu Jing and Yu Xia were speechless. Why were all sorts of people in this private room today? Guo Jun and Secretary Wu exchanged wry smiles and looked at Director Li with annoyance. It was understandable that Director Li wanted to stay out of it, but bringing Li Xiang along clearly showed that he was trying to please both sides.

"Boss Li is here?" Director Li stepped forward, pointing to Guo Jun, "Boss Li, this is Secretary Guo from our Municipal Youth League Committee, you should have met him before, right?"

"Yes, we've dealt with Secretary Guo since he was in the Municipal Party Committee Office." Li Xiang glared at the disheveled Zhang Jianguang, then walked enthusiastically towards Guo Jun.

Zhao Tonghai looked at Zhang Jianguang and couldn't help but shake his head, then smiled and nodded to Liu Jing and Little Tiger. Fang Xi smiled from afar; Liu Jing returned the greeting expressionlessly, secretly making a new decision.

After exchanging pleasantries with everyone, Director Li said, "Boss Li, let me tell you about the situation..."

"Director Li, no need to say anything, whatever the situation, it's all our fault." Li Xiang understood perfectly, and then walked up to Liu Jing: "Brother Liu, I'm sorry you were wronged today. On behalf of Ideal Group, and on behalf of my good-for-nothing brother-in-law, I sincerely apologize to you. I guarantee that such an incident will never happen again, and I hope that our misunderstanding can be wiped clean from now on."

Zhao Tonghai moved his lips, as if he also wanted to say something.

Liu Jing waved to stop them, stood up, and said, "I'm sorry, Chairman Li. I don't trust you, but I don't trust your brother-in-law either. I don't think your guarantee represents him. I wanted a peaceful life, but what did I get in return? I accept escaping death in Thailand, but what about now?

If it's proven that I did the assault, I'll accept legal punishment, but I will investigate everything else thoroughly."

Turning to Zhao Tonghai, Liu Jing said, "President Zhao, I also want to apologize to you. I didn't sign the Thai acquisition because I felt there was something fishy going on. Even I, a layman, could sense that there was more to it than I imagined. I'm an employee of Dongxing, a citizen of the country, and a member of the Communist Party. I can't sit idly by while hundreds of millions of yuan of state assets are at stake. Tomorrow, I will submit a report, including everything I know, and report it to the head office. Please forgive me."

Everyone was shocked. Director Li never expected this farce to involve such a big matter. Guo Jun and Secretary Wu's eyes lit up, and they couldn't help but feel excited. Guo Jun interjected, "Xiao Liu, give me a copy of your report when you're done. Have Xiao Zheng hand it to me."

Li Xiang slowly turned around and looked at Zhao Tonghai. President Zhao remained calm, his face grim as he asked, "Have you decided?"

Liu Jing met his gaze and said generously, "That's right, I've decided. This matter will end sooner or later, whether it's a complete upheaval or a fight to the death, I accept it."

The two stared at each other silently, both unwavering and filled with surprise. Zhao Tonghai didn't understand Liu Jing, nor could he fathom his intentions; Liu Jing didn't understand President Zhao's purpose, but his intuition told him that he was the one manipulating everything. What was the reason that President Zhao was so determined to deal with him?

Everyone held their breath, watching the two with astonishment. Fang Xi, though conflicted, bravely stepped forward and leaned against her lover.

"Good, good, very good." Zhao Tonghai nodded. "Then let's leave it at that."

"Second brother..." Li wanted to say a few words of advice.

"What's the point of saying anything more? We're fine, let him sue if he wants!" Zhao Tonghai finally snapped, waving his hand angrily. "Alright, stop embarrassing yourselves, get out of here!" He then led the way out, not even glancing at Little Tiger.

Li Xiang sighed, nodded to Guo Jun and Director Li, and led the dejected Zhang Jianguang and the bald bodyguard out.

This was the first day since Chen Lin left, and so much had happened. Previously, Liu Jing and General Manager Zhao had maintained a superficial superior-subordinate relationship during the showdown, but now they had finally broken ties completely.

Afterwards, everyone said their goodbyes and dispersed. Liu Jing, holding the two women's hands, led the three of them out of the guesthouse. The sunset outside was beautiful; it was time to go home.

Chapter 132 Even Virgins Can Be Lewd

The city was beautiful in the late afternoon, the wind still gentle, the setting sun radiating countless rays of light, the city lights twinkling with a mesmerizing glow, as if to share warmth and hope fairly with everyone in the city, together with the sunset.

However, fairness is also a pressure. There will always be people in this world who feel they haven't received enough, and not everyone can enjoy the blessings of heaven. Often, accepting fairness requires a calm mind, and enjoying blessings requires wisdom. Both are commonplace, but unfortunately, few possess them. At least Li Xiang and Zhang Jianguang are not. Li Xiang lacks a calm mind, and Zhang Jianguang simply lacks the necessary wisdom.

The Ideal Building wasn't originally called the Ideal Building, but the Ideal Group rented the top two floors, the eighteenth and nineteenth, and paid the management a hefty sum to erect a huge "Ideal" sign on the roof. People gradually forgot the building's original name and only remembered the word "Ideal." Now, Li Xiang, Zhao Tonghai, and Zhang Jianguang are in the chairman's office on the top floor.

Li Xiang sits upright in his luxurious, spacious office chair, staring at his brother-in-law with a livid expression; Zhang Jianguang, his face downcast, shrinks into a corner of the sofa, not daring to look up; Zhao Tonghai is relaxed, his left hand clasped between his fingers.

"Sister-in-law?" The atmosphere is too oppressive. Zhang Jianguang looks at President Zhao and speaks weakly.

"Don't call me brother-in-law!" With a loud bang, an enraged Li Xiang slammed his hand on the table and

stood up. "I don't have a useless brother like you!" Zhang Jianguang was startled and instinctively looked at Zhao Tonghai beside him. Zhao Tonghai seemed not to see him, still squinting his eyes, clicking his tongue and reveling in the rich taste of the foreign liquor.

"You good-for-nothing idiot, all talk and no action! You can't even pick the right time to cause trouble!" Li Xiang, furious at his lack of ambition, pointed at his nose and began to berate him. "You've offended the vice governor and the Ethnic Affairs Association in one fell swoop! You're really something. Don't you know when to start? Now you've really messed things up, what are you going to do?"

Zhang Jianguang, his face swollen and ugly, stubbornly said, "Brother-in-law, it's not my fault! How was I supposed to know..."

"Shut up!" Li Xiang trembled with anger, his hand shaking as he said, "How many times have I told you, you're the general manager of the group, you need to know your place, don't bother with people you don't know. But what have you done? Jealousy is one thing, but you even set a trap for someone like that. What the hell can you do besides playing around with women? Do you even have a brain?"

Zhang Jianguang's eyes gleamed green, his already distorted face becoming even more contorted with anger, but thankfully he knew it wasn't the time to lash out. He could only cast a pleading look at Zhao Tonghai for the third time.

Zhao Tonghai reluctantly put down his wine glass, sat up straight, and said, "Fifth Brother, what's done is done, calm down. Ignorance is no excuse, and Jianguang's situation is understandable. Don't even mention him, I didn't know that kid had so many connections!"

"What do you mean 'didn't know'?" Li Xiang, still seething with resentment, continued to roar, "How many times! All he does is cause trouble! He's the group's general manager. What has he been doing all day?"

Zhang Jianguang couldn't take it anymore, his breathing became rapid, his face contorted with rage as he glared at his brother-in-law.

"Fifth Brother!" Zhao Tonghai called out, patting Zhang Jianguang's shoulder in a comforting gesture, "You can't say that, Jianguang is young. He hasn't experienced much, he'll grow up eventually. Besides, you've said enough already, let it go, even if you don't care about me, you have to consider your sister-in-law!"

Li Xiang didn't say anything more, sighed, sat down, grabbed a cigarette, and lit it angrily. Everyone has weaknesses, and Li Xiang's biggest weakness was his fear of his wife; otherwise, how could he have let Zhang Jianguang become the general manager, causing him to lose face time and time again?

Seeing that Li Xiang didn't say anything more, Zhao Tonghai turned to Zhang Jianguang and said, "Jianguang, don't think too much. Go back and rest well, focus on healing your injury. Leave the rest to me and your brother-in-law."

Zhang Jianguang looked gratefully at General Manager Zhao, then glanced at Li Xiang.

"Why are you looking at me?" Li Xiang said impatiently, waving his hand dismissively. "Get out of here, and don't let me see you again!"

Zhang Jianguang's expression changed several times, but he finally fell silent and walked away angrily. Li Xiang stared at his retreating figure and added, "Until I re-announce it, you are no longer the general manager. Go back and reflect on your actions."

"You... Hmph!" Zhang Jianguang turned back and slammed the door shut.

Zhao Tonghai frowned slightly, seemingly disagreeing with Li Xiang's decision.

After Zhang Jianguang left, the atmosphere became much more harmonious, but still

somewhat tense. Li Xiang turned to the window, the city's evening scenery dazzling and alluring. He felt a mix of attachment and uncertainty. This city was magnificent, but behind the glamour, no one knew what lay hidden. He had grown up here, familiar with every street, yet now he felt bewildered, as if it were unreal, unrecognizable. The evening breeze, the sunset, every glittering window—all seemed like illusions.

Zhao Tonghai felt a similar yet different feeling, but remained calm. In his view, the flickering lights didn't represent endless desires, but rather the deepest, most beautiful hopes of the heart. He too had grown up in this city, equally familiar with those streets, but had always believed that these orderly, vein-like streets precisely reflected the city's unfair rules of the game. This was the reality; reality was just like this. Human values had always been chaotic; beautiful things could only exist deep within the heart. He too was bewildered, worried that the beautiful things would eventually be swept away, and he didn't know where he would be.

Li Xiang sighed inwardly, slowly turning back: "Second brother, what do we do now?"

"What do you mean, what do we do?" Zhao Tonghai also turned back, picking up his wine glass again.

Li Xiang placed his arms on the table and leaned forward, saying, "The higher-ups have been very concerned about our fundraising. This year, with the Party Congress approaching, the city has already spoken to me several times, urging me to settle the fundraising as soon as possible. If that kid's report really reaches Vice Governor Guo, I'm worried the higher-ups will use this opportunity to send a working group to conduct a comprehensive audit of the group's finances."

"Let them send one," Zhao Tonghai said dismissively, downing his drink in one gulp. "The worst-case scenario is that we overpaid, but so what? Even ordinary people find prices for vegetables at the market, let alone international acquisitions."

"Won't they think we're insolvent?" Li Xiang asked worriedly.

"Of course not," Zhao Tonghai stood up and strolled leisurely. "Minerals are different from ordinary fixed assets. Resources are becoming increasingly scarce, and the prospects for rare metal mines will only get better. Nobody can draw that conclusion. Don't worry, my plan won't go wrong."

Li Xiang sighed and said nothing more. "Second and fifth" were their dormitory rankings during their university days. From then on, this class monitor and student council president, his second brother, had taken good care of him. His success today, and the fact that Ideal Group had weathered several crises and grown step by step, were all thanks to Zhao Tonghai's strategic planning and tireless help and support.

Zhao Tonghai glanced at him and said, "You still have to let Jian Guang be the general manager."

"Let him be the general manager?" Li Xiang frowned deeply, his anger rising again.

Zhao Tonghai stopped in front of him and calmly said, "Being the general manager is his only source of pride. If you don't let him be the general manager, who knows what kind of trouble he'll cause next?"

"That's precisely why I don't let him be the general manager," Li Xiang said, his face contorted with anger, standing up from behind his desk.

"Could he cause anything worse than this?" Zhao Tonghai frowned and replied, his face grim. "Sooner or later, someone has to step up, and letting him take the place is the most suitable."

Li Xiang's heart skipped a beat, his eyes suddenly sharpening as he looked at him with fear.

Zhao Tonghai strolled to the window, gazing at the city outside, and said calmly, "Don't even think about it. There's no room for negotiation. Things started badly because of him, and now it's his fault again. If it weren't for his insatiable greed, would you be in this situation? Letting him take some responsibility is already letting him off easy."

Li Xiang sighed deeply and fell silent. He knew very well that Zhao Tonghai was doing this entirely to help him. If his brother-in-law hadn't been so foolish, incompetent, and greedy, this longtime classmate and elder brother would never have been involved.

As dusk deepened and the city grew brighter, Zhao Tonghai lit a new cigarette, calmly gazing at the bustling cityscape outside the window.

Li Xiang walked to his side and stood beside him, asking helplessly, "When Jian Guang asked Lao Lu to call that kid over, weren't you there? Why didn't you stop him?"

Zhao Tonghai was taken aback, puzzled, "How was I supposed to know he was setting a trap?"

"Could it possibly be anything good?" Li Xiang said, not without resentment.

Zhao Tonghai, annoyed, turned around and said, "You're with him every day, and I only eat a little? Do I have to keep an eye on him for you?"

"I was just saying," Li Xiang said, not saying anything more, and also got a new cigarette.

Zhao Tonghai glanced at him and turned back, the two facing the city's evening view together.

It was completely dark, the distant TV tower standing out from the sea of lights, the revolving restaurant at the top emitting warm light, slowly rotating above the city.

Compared with the south, the nightlife in northern cities has never been very rich. This is not only related to the climate and the degree of economic openness, but also a reflection of the cultural environment. After the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the center of Chinese culture shifted to the south of the Yangtze River, and various schools of thought emerged one after another. In contrast, northern culture has always maintained its independence in a conventional way.

As the former capital of the Qing Dynasty, and having been managed by Russia, Japan, and the Zhang family for more than half a century, S City's prosperity and scale are second to none in the north except for Beijing, but it is still a city lacking in nightlife. People stubbornly maintain the habit of going home after work, eating, watching TV, then going to bed to make love and dream. Fortunately, the lack of nightlife doesn't equate to unhappiness. S City has one of the lowest consumption-to-income ratios among big cities, so every day after work, the streets are filled with people's tired yet genuine smiles.

In front of the Public Security Bureau's guesthouse, Fang Xi's smile vanished, the streetlights reflecting her reluctant and unwilling eyes. Yu Xia had already agreed to stay at her house that night, and she had even called Shen Meng, but the lovely woman refused.

Liu Jing comforted her, "Fang Xi, Mom just left today. Big Sister wants to have dinner together, don't let her be too lonely. It seems like we've neglected her since Mom and Dad left."

Fang Xi glanced at Yu Xia, pouted, and reluctantly nodded. She knew it wasn't right not to go back on the first day, but the three of them had been together so many times. She always felt lonely going back alone. Besides, Yu Xia was becoming increasingly unrestrained, and Liu Jing had even held her hand and hugged her in front of her; she no longer felt comfortable letting the two of them stay together.

"Alright, wait a moment, I'll go get the car." Liu Jing turned and left.

Yu Xia smiled and approached. She said charmingly, "Sister, I helped your husband so much again today, how are you going to thank me?"

Why again? Fang Xi's pretty face flushed red, and she dodged away, saying, "Sister Qin, you wouldn't... like my husband, would you?"

"Guess?" Yu Xia asked ambiguously.

The little tiger hesitated for a moment, then said warily, "Sister Qin, you, you really..."

"Hehe, I was just joking with you!" Yu Xia said casually. She was also a little embarrassed, but it wasn't obvious on her face.

The little tiger looked suspicious and said disbelievingly, "Come on! I don't believe you anymore!"

Yu Xia smiled beautifully and said half-jokingly, "Okay then, I'll tell you the truth, actually... I've already cheated on you!"

"What did you say? You you you..." The little tiger didn't know if it was true or not, and was both embarrassed and anxious. He immediately tried to tickle her.

Yu Xia dodged, and the little tiger missed his target, but was instead hugged by Yu Xia from behind.

"Sister Qin, what are you doing?" Fangxi asked, both shy and embarrassed, her head bowed.

Liu Jing had already gotten into the car. Yuxia hugged her from behind, whispering in her ear, "Sister, let me make this clear: if you don't lend me your husband, you'll have to lend me yourself!"

"What? Sister Qin, you're not a lesbian, are you?" Fangxi's pretty face flushed with embarrassment, her heart pounding wildly. She felt like everyone on the street was staring at her, her eyes darting left and right. Wasn't this just a joke? Why is she getting more and more serious? And she wants to be with me? Heavens! How could this be?

"What lesbian? Just playing around!" Yuxia also felt embarrassed, subconsciously glancing left and right. "Hmph! You don't need to pretend to be innocent. You haven't even lost your virginity yet, and you already know so much. I don't believe you haven't played with Liu Jing before. It's the same thing!"

This topic was too erotic and too lewd. The little tiger shrank back, falling silent, excitement and happiness surging within her.

Liu Jing started reversing the car, and Yu Xia said aggrievedly, "We'll be living together from now on. You two will be all lovey-dovey all the time, and I'll be all alone. How can I stand it?" "

Hehe!" Fang Xi chuckled, teasingly saying, "Don't you... have any fake ones?"

"Hey you..." Yu Xia's beautiful face flushed red. Just as she was about to say something, Liu Jing drove up, and she hurriedly said, "Listen, either lend me your husband, or you stay with me. Choose one, you decide!" She then kissed Yu Xia's cheek and pinched her breast.

"Sister Qin, you're so shameless!" Fang Xi was embarrassed and almost cried out, but since her lover had arrived, she could only utter a curse.

Yu Xia's large face remained expressionless, a smug smile on her face, as if she had gained a great advantage. She had indeed gained a great advantage; not only did her child gain a mother, but she also gained a husband. Fang Xi was embarrassed, angry, and aggrieved, yet unable to speak. Her husband was about to be borrowed by someone else, and instead of being angry, she seemed quite excited? How could this be?

"What are you talking about? Let's talk in the car." Liu Jing opened the car door with a wicked grin. He saw Yu Xia holding the little tiger and guessed she was saying something disgusting again, so he deliberately slowed down, because he liked the two women to be close.

Fang Xi's face was flushed, and she glared fiercely at Yu Xia. Yu Xia didn't care and smiled as she held the car door for her: "No, I'll take a taxi. You take Fang Xi."

"Why take a taxi? It won't make a difference if it's just a little while?" Liu Jing asked in surprise.

Yu Xia smiled seductively and glanced

at the little tiger, saying, "Fang Xi has something to discuss with you. It's not appropriate for me to talk in the car." Liu Jing was stunned and immediately widened his eyes, looking at the little tiger.

"She...she's talking nonsense! Who has something to say? If she doesn't want to get in, fine!" Fang Xi was extremely embarrassed. She glanced at her lover, pushed Yu Xia away abruptly, and hurriedly got into the car, slamming the door shut.

"Then we're leaving." Liu Jing couldn't help but smile wryly, preparing to start the car.

"Let's go." Yu Xia was overjoyed, smiling mischievously at the little tiger, "Come back early, I'll be waiting for you at home."

Yu Xia was getting a good deal and still acting innocent, which infuriated the little tiger, who immediately wanted to get out of the car to teach her a lesson. Liu Jing quickly drove away. The sunset was beautiful, and the evening breeze was gentle. Yu Xia stood by the roadside, covering her mouth, waving her little hand happily.

The Renault drove into the traffic. Fang Xi turned around, looking aggrieved, and said, "Honey, look! She's obviously trying to steal me away now!"

"How could that be? She's just joking with you!" Liu Jing glanced at her and asked tentatively, "What did she say?"

The car window was open, and the wind blew in gently. Fang Xi calmed down a lot and looked at him, asking, "What did she tell me? Don't you know? I don't believe she didn't tell you!"

Fang Xi had never mentioned the matter of borrowing a husband, but she was absolutely certain that Yu Xia had shamelessly betrayed her promise. Otherwise, how could her lover have the audacity to hold her hand and hug her in front of her?

Liu Jing quickly shook his head, indicating he didn't know.

"Don't give me that!" Little Tiger, both jealous and possessive, grabbed his ear. "You hugged her right in front of me that day, and you still dare to say you don't know? Do you think I don't exist?"

"Hey, stop! We're driving!" Liu Jing quickly dodged and begged for mercy.

"Just tell me! What did she say to you?" Little Tiger was furious and wouldn't let it go.

"Okay, okay, I... I'll tell you." Liu Jing suppressed a laugh, "She said you were going to lend me to Shi!"

"I knew she would say that!" Little Tiger let go, full of resentment.

Liu Jing wisely remained silent, secretly observing her reaction. Little Tiger sat in the passenger seat, panting heavily with anger. The wind playfully blew in, ruffling her hair and messing up her clear eyes.

After a long while, Little Tiger suddenly slammed her hand heavily on her leg, gritting her teeth and saying, "I've decided, I'm going to be a lesbian with her! You want to borrow my husband? No way!"

"Pfft!" Little Tiger's words were shocking. Liu Jing's hand slipped, the car lurched violently, the tires screeching against the ground, almost crashing into the roadside fence. He quickly steadied himself and parked the car properly.

Fang Xi was startled and patted her chest, saying, "Are you crazy! You almost scared me to death!"

Liu Jing looked at her greedily, swallowing hard, and said, "I mean, Fang Xi, um... when you're being gay, could I... watch from the side?"

"You, you... what did you say!" Fang Xi was furious and embarrassed, her face flushed red, and she reached out her arms to grab his ear again.

Liu Jing laughed and pulled her into his arms, about to kiss her on the lips.

They were outside a nursery, with few pedestrians and vehicles, so it was a good time for them to be intimate.

"Ah!" The little tiger's body went limp. She was extremely aggrieved at that moment, "Husband, I'm not gay, it's just that Sister Qin is too perverted, I don't want to lend you to her."

Liu Jing smiled and stroked her face, saying softly, "It's okay, same sex is same sex, as long as you like it. But it can only be Yu Xia. Not with anyone else."

"Husband, I'm really not gay!" Fang Xi was overwhelmed with shame. She was so aggrieved that she was about to cry, twisting her body coquettishly.

"Alright, alright, whether she's a lesbian or not, let's have a heterosexual encounter with your husband first!" Liu Jing was excited by her words. He leaned down and kissed her lips, while simultaneously slipping one hand under her skirt.

Fang Xi let out a soft moan and wrapped her arms around his neck, ready to respond to her lover's kiss.

"Wow!" Liu Jing suddenly exclaimed, standing up and spreading his hands in front of her, "You said she's not a lesbian, and she only hugged you for a bit, and she's already this wet?"

"Husband, you're so annoying!" Fang Xi's eyes darted around. She was almost crying, and she pushed him away abruptly, bending down to bury her face between his legs.

Before Liu Jing could react, his zipper was undone, and his half-erect penis was pulled out and entered Little Tiger's warm, fragrant mouth.

Wow! How could this have such an effect? Although Little Tiger was also a slut, this was on the street. Only Yu Xia had ever done something like this before, so crazy and bold, this was Little Tiger's first time. Was it just to prove she wasn't a lesbian?

To prove herself, Fang Xi acted as a traffic cop for the first time. Liu Jing was dumbfounded, utterly speechless, even forgetting to lift her skirt and explore her alluring crotch.

This time, the little tiger was unusually vigorous, his movements extremely aggressive, his head moving up and down, his right hand stroking back and forth with the head's movements, while his left hand continuously rubbed his testicles, quickly drawing him to climax.

Fang Xi licked her lips, stood up, and wrapped her arms around his neck, saying earnestly, "Husband, now you should believe me, I'm really not gay, I only like your things!"

Liu Jing was both amused and exasperated, emotionally holding her and saying, "Silly girl, who said you're gay? Not just you, Yu Xia isn't either, she's just teasing you!"

"But I don't want to lend you to her!" Fang Xi tilted her head, her pitiful look quite adorable.

Liu Jing shook his head, looking into her eyes and said, "Fangxi, we were both so happy watching the sea of lights together last time. To be honest, now that the three of us are together, plus Duoduo, I'm really happy. Yuxia too, and you like her too, don't you?"

"I like her, but you're my husband. I feel like I'm losing out if I lend you to her!" Little Tiger looked at him anxiously, but thankfully, he was already able to handle the issue normally.

"Whether you lend her or not is just talk. The key is that we'll be living together for a lifetime. After a while, people will definitely gossip. As long as you can face it squarely." Little Tiger's attitude showed that progress was already quite promising, so Liu Jing wasn't in a hurry.

Fangxi glanced at him and said sourly, "If I don't lend her, you'll be very disappointed, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense! What are you talking about?" Liu Jing quickly straightened his face and gently pushed her away.

Fangxi pouted and said jealously, "Pretending won't help. Do you dare say you don't think about it?"

Liu Jing smiled awkwardly and prepared to start the car.

The little tiger nestled into his arms again, looking up at him and saying, "Honey, I really love you so much. Seeing how happy Lawyer Fang and Sister Chang were today, I was actually quite envious, but you're my husband alone, and I just can't bear to part with you!"

Liu Jing felt a pang of sadness, and pulled her close, saying, "Fangxi, it was already too much to ask you to agree to live with Yuxia. Who else would agree? I've already wronged you so much, just don't blame me."

"It's not entirely your fault, I also like being with Sister Qin." The little tiger gazed at the distant lights, her face calm and tender.

Along the roadside, the small trees in the nursery swayed neatly, and a fresh breeze blew in through the window. Fangxi was so kind; with such a wife, Liu Jing couldn't say anything.

The two continued on their way, streetlights flashing past on either side, the sky growing darker, but the future looking bright. Fangxi sat by the window, tilting her head and gazing sweetly at him, a playful look in her eyes carried by the wind.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Liu Jing asked curiously.

Fang Xi, her bright eyes sparkling, said, "I was thinking about your question earlier."

"What question?" Liu Jing asked, puzzled.

Fang Xi blushed slightly, shrinking back, and said, "I was thinking, if I really did *that* with Sister Qin, should you watch from the side?"

Liu Jing was both amused and exasperated, nearly bumping into the roadside again: "You really want me to watch? Aren't you afraid I won't be able to resist and will eat you both up?"

"You're so vain!" Fang Xi smiled smugly, spitting out, "I've already thought it through. If I really let you watch, I'll suck you dry three times first, so you won't have the ability even if you have the desire!"

"You're the vain one!" Liu Jing almost burst out laughing, waving his hand dismissively, "Don't even think about it. I've decided, if you don't agree to lend it to me, I won't agree to lend it to you either. Just be a heterosexual with me!"

Fang Xi smiled playfully, teasingly saying, "Honey, you said it yourself. Don't regret it if you don't get to see it later, okay?"

Liu Jing was utterly speechless.

This little tiger is indeed straightforward; even saying something like that is so adorable! Finally, I understood that promiscuity wasn't about exposure or flirtatiousness, but a natural charm, unrelated to virginity.

Chapter 133 Marriage is Not Child's Play

The June evening was warm and comforting, the air still carrying the warmth of the day. The breeze was as gentle as a morning in Jiangnan. Under the cozy streetlights, couples strolled hand in hand, whispering sweet nothings. Elderly people strolled with smiles on their faces, swinging their arms exaggeratedly as they walked. The summer evening was full of life's charm, blending seamlessly with the surrounding scenery, vivid and natural, without a trace of restraint.

Liu Jing drove towards Shen Meng's house, guided by Little Tiger. The wind blew in through the window, ruffling their hair and faces, but it couldn't blow away their tender affection. Along the way, there were watermelons for sale. Liu Jing bought one. There was no particular reason; it was his first visit, or rather, his first time home, so he couldn't go empty-handed. Buying a big watermelon was a good idea.

Fangxi suddenly remembered something, and smoothed her wind-blown hair, saying, "Honey, have you met with your classmate, the governor, recently?"

"I met him before I went to Thailand. What's wrong?" Liu Jing glanced at her and asked.

Fangxi tilted her head and looked at him, saying, "Why is Secretary Guo here today? Who told him?"

"It should be Director Li," Liu Jing explained. "Last time Guo Guo and I were arrested and taken to the police station, he met with me. I guess after Zhang Jianguang reported the case, he recognized me and somehow brought Guo Guo's brother here."

"Do you even need to ask?" Fangxi gave him a sour look. "He probably thought you two were a couple, that's why he found you. Otherwise, why would he help you?"

Little Tiger can tolerate Yuxia living with him, and even doesn't object to borrowing people or homosexuality, but he just can't tolerate Guo Guo. It seems the two of them really don't get along. Liu Jing smiled wryly, "Fang Xi, don't say that. Guo Guo and I basically don't see each other; we only contact each other when there's something to discuss.

This negotiation in Thailand was all thanks to the information she provided. Otherwise, given your relationship with Zhao Tonghai, I would never have refused to sign. If this deal really goes wrong in the end, she'll have saved me!"

"Come on!" Fang Xi said sourly, "She likes you so much; she'll protect you even if things go wrong. What difference does it make whether you sign or not?"

Liu Jing fell silent. Guo Guo had indeed told him to sign it anyway and get the bonus.

Fang Xi didn't continue, turning around and saying, "Honey, most officials these days have problems to some extent, it's just a matter of whether they're investigated or not. If you really report it, and Brother Hai really didn't do anything to us, wouldn't that harm him?"

"No. He definitely has a problem." The summer evening was somewhat hazy, as if time itself was out of order. Liu Jing's gaze remained resolute. He couldn't understand it either, but he believed there must be a reason.

"Actually, I also think he has a problem. Every time you're unlucky, you say it has nothing to do with him. But you always seem to revolve around him. I just don't understand why." Fang Xi raised her head, a trace of helplessness flowing in her clear eyes, her expression somewhat somber. The little tiger was kind-hearted by nature and knew how to consider others' feelings, so although she resolutely followed her lover, she still felt a pang of reluctance.

"If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it anymore. The truth will come out sooner or later." Liu Jing understood her feelings and suddenly said. "Fangxi, Mom's gone, it's my turn to take care of you now. Let's get married!"

"Married?" The little tiger's eyes lit up, her cheeks flushed with a mixture of shy joy and trepidation. They had discussed this before, but many things were still unresolved, especially since Chen Lin had just left. It wasn't the right time yet, and she didn't understand why her lover was suddenly bringing it up again.

Fangxi, of course, didn't understand either, because Guo Guo was still waiting for her to break up with him. She felt sorry for Zhao Tonghai, and Liu Jing was also uneasy for Guo Guo. Marriage was his wish, so it was better to hurry and make Guo Guo give up the idea sooner rather than later.

Liu Jing couldn't help but get excited and said enthusiastically, "I mean, let's register first. Our auto repair shop is opening soon, let's choose a good day, register at the same time, and have double the happiness?"

Fangxi's starry eyes slightly reproached, her heart also pounding with excitement. She lowered her head and said, "Alright then, but once we register, we'll be officially husband and wife, and you have to listen to me from now on!"

"Don't worry, I'll follow my wife's lead in everything!" Liu Jing said loudly.

Fangxi glanced at him affectionately, leaned forward, and planted a beautiful kiss on his cheek.

Downstairs at Shen Meng's apartment building, Liu Jing parked his car, and the two went upstairs hand in hand. The motion-sensor lights illuminated each floor, and the two, deeply in love, left a trail of embraces and kisses on the stairs, nearly shattering a large watermelon.

Fangxi rang the doorbell, the door opened, and a faint scent of jasmine wafted out.

"Fangxi, why are you back?" Shen Meng's face was as calm as water, his tone indifferent, but his eyes revealed excitement and eagerness. Clearly, he was lonely and longed for family affection.

Fangxi glanced at her lover and said, "Liu Jing said today is the first day, and you already told him, so we came back." She didn't know the reason, but knew the two disliked each other, so she seized the opportunity to speak well of her lover.

"Big sister, we are back, but we've already eaten," Liu Jing said, holding a watermelon and trying to appease her.

"It's alright, I've eaten too," Shen Meng smiled calmly, and swiftly opened the door.

Shen Meng took slippers for the two of them and stood quietly to the side. Liu Jing changed into slippers, but his eyes secretly darted around. Shen Meng had clearly just taken a shower; her damp hair was casually tied back, and her bangs fell diagonally across her oval face. Her bright eyes were calm as still water, and her thin lips seemed to always carry a faint sense of gentleness and unspokenness. The jasmine scent emanating from her body added to her serene and graceful demeanor, pure and dignified, like the clear, clean moonlight, a natural fusion of nobility and pure beauty under a sky full of stars.

Liu Jing suddenly thought of Shi Feixuan and couldn't help but marvel. In terms of static beauty, Shen Meng was unparalleled, even surpassing Yu Xia by a third. Unfortunately, whether in mythology or reality, enchantresses are always more alluring than fairies, so Shi Feixuan was only seen as pretentious and annoying, while Guan Guan was universally loved.

"Sister Meng, these are the watermelons Liu Jing bought; I'll go cut them," Fang Xi said, after changing her slippers, praising her lover. Shen Meng smiled faintly, "The watermelon I just bought isn't cold yet. There are some frozen ones in the fridge, you can have the ones in the fridge first."

Fang Xi nodded and went inside to cut the watermelon. Shen Meng led Liu Jing into the living room.

The professor was indeed impressive; Shen Meng's house had four bedrooms, three living rooms, and two bathrooms—quite large, though sparsely furnished, making it feel empty. After they sat down, Liu Jing wanted to say something, but Shen Meng glanced at the kitchen and suddenly pointed to his crotch.

Liu Jing looked down and immediately broke out in a cold sweat. His pants were askew, not fully closed, revealing a bulging pair of shorts—the result of Little Tiger's oral sex in the car. That Little Tiger, after eating, he didn't care about anything else!

"I'm sorry!" Liu Jing said, his face flushed, half-turning to straighten his pants.

Shen Meng's beautiful face was slightly flushed. She rolled her eyes at him, then said seriously, "Now that Mom and Dad are gone, I'm the older sister, I should be responsible for you. I can see Fang Xi is still a virgin. Before Captain Qin's matter is resolved, I hope you won't do certain things."

This woman again, can't she say something else? Liu Jing sighed and met her gaze, saying, "Big sister, don't you think you're meddling too much? To tell you the truth, Fangxi and I discussed it on the way here, and we're going to register our marriage soon."

"Register?!" Shen Meng's expression changed slightly, her anger barely contained. "Registering means marriage! You've only known each other for a few days, is that a game?"

Liu Jing sighed helplessly, saying, "I told you you can ask Fangxi anything. Now that Fangxi has moved in, you have plenty of time. Whether it's a game or not, just ask him directly. Why keep pressuring me?"

Shen Meng's face hardened; she was about to say something more when Fangxi came out with a watermelon.

Shen Meng didn't say anything more. The three of them ate watermelon and watched TV, chatting idly. A Taiwanese drama was playing on TV. Shen Meng spoke softly, while Xiaohu chattered away, and the two of them actually started discussing it with great interest. Liu Jing, thoroughly tormented and speechless, forced herself to sit until nine o'clock, then fled as if escaping.

A gentle night breeze blew, and the moon cast a soft glow. Liu Jing took a deep breath before getting into his car

and driving away. He just couldn't understand how girls could enjoy watching Taiwanese television, which was not only poorly produced but also had incredibly fake storylines. Everyone's talking sounded like they were shouting, it was utterly awful. Driving home, Liu Jing felt a little depressed. With Chen Lin and Zheng Song gone, Shen Meng had taken over the role of the head of the household. Little did she know she was causing trouble for him and Little Tiger. Little Tiger was practically living there, but Shen Meng's current mental state, if not addressed soon, meant she'd find a boyfriend, and even if they got married, they wouldn't be able to bear moving out and leaving her all alone .

What should he do? Liu Jing was worried.

The streets were quiet and warm at night, many windows casting comforting lights. Liu Jing drove, his mind gradually calming down. Yu Xia would leave him a light, that was truly his. He firmly believed everything would be alright, it definitely would.

That's life; you never know what tomorrow will bring. Whether you face adversity or accept it, ultimately you can only accept it; no one has a choice. If life is like rape, an optimist would shout "It's great!"

Liu Jing arrived home. As on every late night, Yu Xia nestled into his arms, and the two kissed at the door. Home is best! Holding Yu Xia's sexy, mature body, feeling the warmth of her flesh, Liu Jing sighed with emotion.

"What did Fang Xi say?" Their lips parted. Yu Xia asked urgently.

Liu Jing laughed, "She said she won't lend it to you, she's decided to be a lesbian with you."

"This little girl is quite stubborn!" Yu Xia chuckled, then added playfully, "Honey, you're in luck now. I'll seduce her until she's completely infatuated, and you can kill two birds with one stone!"

Liu Jing secretly broke out in a cold sweat, looking her over and saying, "You're really planning to be a lesbian with her?"

"What lesbian? That's called same-sex sexual behavior. It's just for fun!" Yu Xia rolled her eyes, saying seriously, "We're both your women, sooner or later we'll be yours to play with. If we have fun ourselves, it'll relieve your stress and add some romance to our relationship, what's wrong with that?"

"That's true." Liu Jing was more than happy to agree.

The two entered the room. Yu Xia was still wearing that little nightgown, her buttocks raised high. Liu Jing swallowed hard, looking at her from behind and saying, "Yu Xia, why do I feel like your butt's gotten bigger again?"

"Is that even a question?" Yu Xia blushed and scolded him, "Both holes are being played with by you all day long, how could they not get bigger?"

What did it matter? Liu Jing was both amused and exasperated.

Since their anus was opened, their sex life had been incredibly smooth and perfect. Yu Xia's anus was indescribably wonderful; the two were completely captivated by its exquisite pleasure. Liu Jing had seen similar scenes in porn, where actresses were often made into a large, dark hole. Yu Xia was different. Except for the first time, which was slightly difficult, she would insert softly every time, very easily, and then slowly close up after being pulled out, leaving not even a tiny opening. It was comparable to modern computer hardware: plug and play.

"Is the child asleep?" Liu Jing asked as they entered the living room.

"Just lay down, not asleep yet."

As they were talking, the bedroom door opened, and Duo Duo, carrying a large milk bottle, ran out barefoot, wearing only her underwear.

"Daddy!" Duo Duo ran up happily.

"Hey!" Liu Jing picked up the child and gave him a big kiss on the cheek. "Duo Duo, were you good at kindergarten today?"

"Yes, I was." Duo Duo looked at his mother and asked impatiently, "Daddy, are you and Mommy married?"

The two were taken aback and looked at each other in surprise. Liu Jing said, "Duo Duo, why are you asking this? Did someone ask you?"

"Yes, the teacher asked." Duo Duo pouted, his eyes filled with timidity.

Children may not understand, but they have a habitual sense. It's probably because some gossipy teacher secretly asked him, thinking he and Yu Xia weren't a good match, and maybe the teachers were even talking about it privately. Duo Duo sensed something was wrong and rushed out.

Liu Jing looked at Yu Xia, slightly awkward; Yu Xia, however, didn't seem to care, a happy smile on her face. Liu Jing countered, "Duo Duo, what did you answer?" Duo Duo

blinked. "I said I don't know what marriage is."

The two couldn't help but laugh. If he was unhappy, he just said he didn't know; Duo Duo was indeed clever. Yu Xia stepped forward and hugged the child, tilting her head back and saying, "Duo Duo, if the teacher asks again, just tell her that Mommy and Daddy got married a long time ago, understand?"

"Understood!" Duo Duo smiled at her father; this was clearly the answer she wanted.

Looking at the child's smiling face, Liu Jing's heart was filled with unease. He hadn't considered this issue, thinking that Yu Xia and her daughter's happiness was enough. But what woman wouldn't care? It had nothing to do with feelings.

Night deepened, the air flowed gently, still as water. The ceiling lights cast a soft glow, and outside the window, countless lights twinkled in the city, the sky a hazy brilliance studded with countless stars—a scene of pure, holy light.

Yu Xia went to put the child to sleep, and Liu Jing sat alone on the sofa. The television was silent. He glanced up. It was showing an advertisement for a certain brand of feminine wash, the model striking seductive poses, uttering words of utter infatuation: "xxx, love me to the deepest depths.

" "What a fucking idiot!" Liu Jing muttered viciously, angrily turning off the television.

Liu Jing tossed the remote control aside and leaned back on the sofa, legs crossed. He wasn't someone who was very open about his feelings; many problems were making him restless. He longed for genuine affection, full of hope, and cherished every hard-won true love, but he had to admit that often, grand and solemn emotions were vulnerable in the face of reality, frequently shattered.

He cherished his relationship with Yu Xia and made ample preparations for the future, but forgot about reality. He was single-mindedly focused on registering his marriage with Xiao Laohu, presumptuously assuming that Yu Xia was willing, never considering the consequences. But reality is reality; was Yu Xia truly willing?

To strangers, Yu Xia was very generous, saying, "This is my husband"; to those who knew the inside story, Yu Xia was also very generous, saying, "I'm living with him now." He had heard these two sentences many times, and felt proud and enjoyed them, but even with the same generosity, wasn't there a difference in degree and subtlety?

Shen Meng said that marriage was not a game, and he realized it. Marriage was indeed not a game; he thought back to playing house as a child. Husband, marriage; living together, it's child's play—they're so different. This isn't about feelings, it's stark reality. The monogamous system of modern civilization meant he was destined to wrong Yu Xia, and there was no way to make amends.

The bedroom door opened softly, and Yu Xia came out after putting the child to sleep. Leaning against him, she asked, "Little man, feeling unwell?" Her eyes glanced at him, a playful happiness in them.

Liu Jing smiled awkwardly, putting his arm around her shoulder: "Yu Xia, Fang Xi and I discussed it, we're planning to register our marriage on the day our repair shop opens?"

"That's great, double happiness!" Yu Xia raised her eyebrows slightly, leaning against him, crossing her legs on the sofa. Her pajamas slipped down naturally, revealing her fair and sexy thighs.

Liu Jing embraced her from behind. He whispered close to her face, "Yu Xia, I'm sorry, if there's a next life, I'll only marry you." He had always hated vows of eternal love, especially those involving the next life, but filled with guilt, he blurted them out unconsciously.

Yu Xia smiled and lowered her head, then leaned against his shoulder, saying, "Husband, don't think too much. That thing is just a formality. I'm already very content to live with you for the rest of my life." "

But don't you feel regret?" Liu Jing's eyes were filled with sadness. He felt a pang of pity.

Yu Xia turned and nestled against his chest, saying, "I'm a woman too. It would be a lie to say I haven't thought about it, but when I think about how happy and blissful I am with you, I accept anything. I don't care about anything else."

Liu Jing didn't speak, gazing absently at her flowing hair.

Yu Xia raised her head, a satisfied smile radiating from her beautiful face, "Husband, you are gentle and never lose your temper; you are serious and conscientious in your work; you are also smart, never lacking courage and composure when needed; and you are devoted to Duo Duo, treating her like your own child. Just for that, no matter how much I look for someone else, I definitely won't find anyone better than you. I truly feel very lucky." "

I should be the one saying that. I am the truly lucky one." Liu Jing was deeply moved and felt very comfortable, embracing her tightly.

Yu Xia glanced shyly at him, then wrapped her arms around his neck and said, "Honey, you're still young and capable, and your thing is big enough. You can always bring me to heaven. I've never been this high before!"

"How come you always bring this up in everything!" Liu Jing laughed and slapped her bottom hard.

"That's just how it is!" Yu Xia twisted her bottom and said seriously, "Women and men are different. This is very important. You men can climax by yourself, but how many women have never climaxed in their entire lives!"

"Alright, this issue can be practiced in bed. There's no need to discuss it." Liu Jing helped the woman up and returned to the original topic, "Yu Xia, anyway, I'm sorry. Just don't blame me."

"Silly boy, how could I blame you?" Yu Xia cupped his cheeks, looking at him with clear eyes, "You don't even need to say that. I've already thought it through. Don't forget, I was the one who clung to you in the first place. If it weren't for me, none of this would have happened between you and Fang Xi."

Yu Xia's eyes were clear, her expression sincere, and her elegant face shone with a gentle radiance under the lamplight, as warm and bright as the morning glow. Liu Jing gently stroked her face with the back of his fingers, smiling as he said, "You're wrong. How could we do without you? We all depend on you for protection. Without you, I'm afraid I would have been killed or thrown into prison as a rapist!"

"You have a conscience!" Yu Xia gave a beautiful scolding, then suddenly looked worried. "Husband, you've already publicly fallen out with that Zhao guy. Why don't you just resign?"

Liu Jing sighed and calmly said, "I've thought about this. If we hadn't fallen out, I would have resigned. But now it's like declaring war on him. How can I just quit? Besides, he definitely has ulterior motives towards Fang Xi. Although I don't know what's going on yet, resigning now feels like running away. It's not that I'm acting out of loyalty; it's just that I can't accept it emotionally."

"It doesn't matter. As long as you're comfortable with it." Yu Xia understood his feelings and smiled gently. "Even if you resign, they might not let it go. Why not expose them all? Let's see what they're really made of!"

"Thank you, Yu Xia." Liu Jing looked at her deeply and opened his arms.

Yu Xia nestled into his arms, and the two embraced under the lamplight, quietly savoring the happiness and sweetness of their embrace. Suddenly, Yu

Xia sat up straight, as if remembering something: "Husband, we can get married!"

"How?" Liu Jing was taken aback.

Yu Xia's eyes widened, and she exclaimed excitedly, "We can have an online wedding!"

"An online wedding?!" Liu Jing hadn't quite grasped the meaning.

Yu Xia smoothed her hair, saying urgently, "We met online, and for us, an online wedding would have real meaning!"

"Where do you want to have an online wedding?" Liu Jing understood.

"I think there's something like Tianya?" Yu Xia frowned, thinking for a long time but couldn't remember.

Liu Jing smiled slightly: "Tianya Wedding Hall, right?"

"Yes, yes, that's it." Yu Xia was overjoyed, kneeling upright on the sofa. "The username I used when we chatted was actually Dong Le's. She also has one on Tianya, and she told me her password. She even said that if you register one too, we can get married. I didn't think much of it at first, but now that I think about it, an online wedding is the most suitable."

Liu Jing's gaze softened, his heart overflowing with gratitude. Yu Xia hadn't taken it seriously then, and of course, she wouldn't think much of it now; it was just to make him feel better.

Yu Xia eagerly grabbed his hand: "Honey, I want to get married! Quickly register a new account using the name 'Anything'!"

"No need to register," Liu Jing said, affectionately stroking her face, standing up. "I already have one. Come on, let's apply now!" With that, Liu Jing picked up his irresistibly alluring bride-to-be and strode towards the bedroom.

Tianya Wedding Hall, the earliest and most famous online wedding platform, had seen countless Tianya couples walk down the aisle in real life. The moderator, La Zhuo's grandfather, had even officiated a grand group wedding for Tianya couples in real life, a story that became legendary. Liu Jing, a seasoned internet user, was well aware of this.

The two were incredibly excited and eagerly turned on their computers. Liu Jing found Tianya Community in his bookmarks and clicked on it. He loved Tianya's cultural atmosphere, but he couldn't stand the internet speed; it was as slow as a snail, unbearable, and frequently resulted in blank pages.

Liu Jing's eyes widened, his heart pounding with anticipation; Yu Xia, her beautiful face tense, also looked nervous. She hadn't taken it seriously at first, but unconsciously, she had become earnest. Online marriage might not seem like much, but it was her second real marriage—how could she not take it seriously?

Unexpectedly, the Tianya internet speed had improved, appearing slightly faster; perhaps fate was looking out for them on this auspicious day.

Liu Jing found the Tianya wedding hall and entered. Rows of marriage applications appeared, followed by three festive red characters: Certificate Issued. He held his breath, casually clicking on one. The application, format, and process appeared, followed by the cheerful Tianya marriage certificate—a bright red one, with a cartoonish wedding dress image, a certificate number, and a seal—much more beautiful than a real marriage certificate.

"Wow! So beautiful!" Yu Xia exclaimed. Liu Jing's heart raced. They looked at each other, then suddenly embraced excitedly. After a passionate kiss and caresses, Liu Jing felt hot all over, his desire boiling; Yu Xia moaned incessantly, her passion surging.

The two endured their internal needs, eagerly separating. Liu Jing then opened the Tianya Marriage Law website, ignoring everything else, only glancing at the marriage requirements: registered ID for more than three months, login at least one hundred times.

Liu Jing's ID was definitely fine; he checked online, and Yu Xia's deep, sweet gaze seemed to be correct as well. Father La Zhuo was online chatting with others, so he quickly posted an application according to the format, logging in and expressing his opinion. He even added that he was familiar with the Marriage Law, that today was a special day, and asked for his assistance if convenient, preferably issuing the certificate that day, etc.

After the post was published, Yu Xia blushed and nestled beautifully against his shoulder. Her eyes under the lamplight were like the allure of sipping red wine, capable of drowning and then cutting down all passionate gazes. Liu Jing smiled and pulled her close, gently kissing her lips. Yu Xia's eyes closed slightly, her lips parted, and her tongue quietly darted out.

The two intertwined their tongues, kissing tenderly. As Liu Jing sucked on Yu Xia's sweet saliva, he glanced sideways, repeatedly clicking the mouse to refresh the page.

Father Lazhuo's dedication was admirable; he replied quickly. First, a long string of unfriendly periods, then: "Approval passed, please pay the processing fee."

Liu Jing chuckled, pushed Yu Xia aside, and returned to the keyboard. If he hadn't said he was already familiar with the marriage law, there would have been an extra step.

The processing fee was two large red envelopes, which Liu Jing obediently paid. Here, Dong Le must be criticized; registered for two and a half years, logged in over 260 times, yet hadn't posted a single thread. Luckily, Liu Jing posted occasionally, and his points were just enough.

Soon, Father Lazhuo replied: "Congratulations to you both, the certificate will be issued soon, please wait.

" The two were overjoyed and embraced again. Yu Xia trembled, her eyes glistening, gazing at him dreamily, saying, "Husband, today we are officially husband and wife! I want to print and have this marriage certificate engraved, to cherish it for a lifetime!"

"Yes, we are officially husband and wife, even more officially than officially, never to be separated for life." Liu Jing's heart surged with emotion—happiness,感动, and even more heartache—feeling utterly inhuman. Marriage was so sacred, yet he was comforting his woman in this way.

It was a quiet and warm night. Stars twinkled outside the window, lamplight shone overhead, and there wasn't a sound around. The two were married just like that—simple, but not a game.

Their hearts pounded, smiles filled their faces, and they kissed incessantly, again and again, a thousand times.

As they kissed, Liu Jing sensed something was wrong. Father Lazhuo said to wait a moment, but almost twenty minutes had passed. Yu Xia was also getting anxious. Liu Jing kept refreshing the page, while Yu Xia sat beside him. Their hearts were pounding, heads close together, eyes wide as they stared at the screen. Another ten minutes passed—ten agonizing minutes, ten minutes that felt like ten days—when Father Lazhuo finally replied, but without the certificate. They glanced at each other, then suddenly burst out laughing.

Father Lazhuo said: "Damn! The server's acting up. The certificate will be issued tomorrow!"

Liu Jing was speechless, utterly dumbfounded. How could this happen? What "marriage isn't a game"? It was practically over! Yu Xia felt wronged and pouted, "Honey, even without the marriage certificate, I'm still a bride tonight. You have to love me well!"

"When aren't you a bride?" Liu Jing chuckled, pressing her onto his lap. His large hands slipped inside her panties, vigorously rubbing and probing her buttocks and private parts.

Yu Xia twisted her large, wanton buttocks wildly, enduring the intense pleasure within her, and forced her way back, saying, "Today is different! Even though the marriage certificate hasn't been issued, the date is today!"

Liu Jing looked at the computer in front of him, his eyes darting around, an idea forming in his mind. He slapped her buttocks hard, saying, "No problem, go get the condoms. Honey will give you an unprecedented peak of stimulation today, I guarantee you'll scream your lungs out and feel like you're in heaven!"

Yu Xia's eyes were alluring, and she asked eagerly yet shyly, "What kind of stimulation?"
