993: Bearding the Lion in His Den

Bearding the Lion in His Den

Xi Jinchuan quickly responded after hearing Ye Tianxin, "Of course!"2

The cousin saw how outrageously polite and sincere Xi Jinchuan was since he arrived.

He realized that the man was indeed Li Qingcang, as he guessed.

He knew he had better shut his mouth and play dead since he had provoked such an important man.

His cousin had shown obedience to this man. What else could he do?

"Xi Jinchuan, you know very well it had happened more than once. I might let it slide the second time, but never again after that. I do not care either if you did not discipline him enough or if you do not want to represent him. "

Li Qingcang held Ye Tianxin's hands and walked in front of the cousin.

"I suppose we should talk about this somewhere else. What do you think?"

Didn't he enjoy wearing gold chains and attacking people with knives, acting like a big shot?

Let him go somewhere where he can fight to his heart's content.

There were plenty of gangsters in the detention center. He should see what the real big shots looked like.

"Yes, Sir."

Deep down, Xi Jinchuan felt that this had indeed been a rather unlucky year for him. He had offended Young Master Li several times throughout the year.

His stupid cousin dared to ask for protection fees right in front of Young Master Li. Wasn't this a perfect case of bearding the lion in his den? Did he want to die?

"Young Master Li, don't worry."

Deep down, Ye Tianxin felt sorry for Xi Jinchuan. This man had been rather unfortunate.

"Young Master Xi, the store owner, used to be my classmate. It hasn't been easy for her to make a living on her own in the Capital."

Xi Jinchuan blushed and nodded. "Yes, you are right."

Xi Jinchuan felt deeply ashamed even though Li Qingcang did not lift a finger for him.

"You guys can take him away now."

When the Captain was ready to take the man away, he realized that his cousin could not protect him from Young Master Li this time.

"Cousin! Cousin! I don't want to go to the detention center."

He was not stupid; he knew exactly what it was like in the detention center.

If he ended up in the detention center, he could no longer rely on his lousy skills. He would barely escape in one piece.

"Cousin, please save me!"

Xi Jinchuan waved his hand. He did not expect that by calling the police, he would end up sending his cousin to jail.

Li Qingcang glanced slightly at Xi Jinchuan, took Ye Tianxin's hand, and left Li Xiaohui's little shop.

Ye Tianxin suddenly thought about something as she walked to the door. She looked toward Xi Jinchuan and said, "Young Master Xi, will you be retaliating against my classmate?"

"No, I will never do that."

Xi Jinchuan's forehand was full of sweat. As long as he could get out of this case in one piece, who cared about revenge?

"That's good to hear. Xiaohui, I have to leave now. Let me know if anything bad happens."

Li Xiaohui nodded. Deep down, she was only grateful to Ye Tianxin.

If it wasn't for Ye Tianxin, she could have gotten into a horrible situation.

Even though she was holding a chopping knife and acting brave, she was pretty frightened.

"Tianxin, come again when you have time."

Li Xiaohui walked with Ye Tianxin to the door. She looked at the back of Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang, who held hands while stepping out together. She thought how Di Shanshi had no chance at all.

Ye Tianxin and Young Master Li looked as if they had just walked out of a romance novel.

Xi Jinchuan gazed at Li Xiaohui and lifted the corners of his eyebrows. She instinctively guarded herself while looking straight at him, fearing that Xi Jinchuan might find ways to settle this later on.
