Chapter 2065: Chapter 2025: What? I’m the One Who Hit Him!
After Xiao Hui finished making dinner, Ye Qiu ate with Ma Wenwen, Wang Leshan, and Xiao Hui. When Ye Qiu was watching TV downstairs, Ma Wenwen had already gone to take a shower.
After she finished showering, she called Ye Qiu to come up.
As Ye Qiu walked into Ma Wenwen’s room, his phone rang. It was a call from Li Qianqian.
Because the two of them had that kind of relationship now, Li Qianqian really liked sticking to Ye Qiu these days, but she still felt that Ye Qiu treated her the same as before.
"Qianqian, what’s up?"
"Didn’t you beat someone up? Now that Zhu Yunhui’s mother is looking for you everywhere."
"You mean the wife of that Deputy Mayor Zhu? I’m still over here in East Sea."
Just from that, Ye Qiu could tell that Zhu Yunhui’s parents probably weren’t any good either.
"I heard she wants to send people to your parents’ Imperial Cuisine Restaurant to cause trouble."
Still dare to cause trouble?
Ye Qiu laughed.
"Then I’ll deal with it when I go back tomorrow."
After hanging up, Ye Qiu hadn’t expected this punk’s mother to move so fast.
But Ye Qiu wasn’t worried at all.
"What is it?" Ma Wenwen asked.
"Nothing."
When Ma Wenwen turned off the lights, since it had been a while since they’d done that kind of thing, she was being very proactive.
The next morning, when Ye Qiu got up, Wang Leshan looked at him a bit strangely.
Last night, when Wang Leshan got up to go to the bathroom, she heard Ma Wenwen making those strange noises from her room and guessed what the two of them were doing inside.
Now Ye Qiu planned to take the three girls out for tea, then send Wang Leshan back to the airport apartment, and then go see Jiang Xiyue, because the situation back in Jinling might cause him some trouble.
Ye Qiu was planning to head back early.
After they finished their tea at a nearby teahouse, he drove Ma Wenwen and Xiao Hui back to Zi Garden Villa, then drove Wang Leshan to the apartment near the airport.
When they arrived at the apartment complex, Ye Qiu let Wang Leshan get out of the car, then headed over to Jiang Xiyue’s company headquarters.
Actually, that company headquarters was just temporary for now.
When he arrived at the building’s parking lot, it was almost lunchtime. Ye Qiu called Jiang Xiyue and asked, "Where are you?"
"I’m in the office."
"I’m in the parking lot under your building. I’ll come up, have a meal with you, then I’m heading back."
Ye Qiu was here?
Jiang Xiyue really hadn’t known.
These days Jiang Xiyue was indeed very busy, laying out clothing stores in major cities across the country. Several big cities in the Pearl River Delta were being planned at the same time, so she had a lot to handle.
When she heard Ye Qiu had come, Jiang Xiyue stepped into the elevator in her high heels. When the elevator reached the underground parking lot and she saw Ye Qiu waving at her, she walked over.
From the look in Jiang Xiyue’s eyes, she seemed a bit tired.
"Working overtime every day?"
"Pretty much always overtime."
Right now Jiang Xiyue really was busy, and she was a career woman to begin with. Except for taking time off now and then to go back to Jinling to see her mother, she spent all her time at work.
Ye Qiu drove to a hotel, had lunch there first, then booked a room. Jiang Xiyue thought Ye Qiu wanted to do something.
She seemed very shy.
Still, Jiang Xiyue didn’t refuse.
Back then, Ye Qiu had bought her for five million.
But now Jiang Xiyue realized she liked Ye Qiu, not because of that five million, but because she deeply admired and was curious about a man like him.
"I’ll go take a shower first," Jiang Xiyue said.
"Go ahead."
So it really was like that?
Jiang Xiyue went into the bathroom to shower. After she finished, she came out wearing the hotel bathrobe. When she lay down on the bed, Ye Qiu said, "Come here."
Jiang Xiyue came over, and Ye Qiu gave her a massage. Before she knew it, she actually fell asleep.
She didn’t even know when Ye Qiu left. Anyway, when she opened her eyes and woke up, she realized Ye Qiu had left at some point long ago.
And all her clothes and everything were perfectly intact. Ye Qiu didn’t seem to have actually touched her.
At that moment, Jiang Xiyue didn’t know how she felt. She thought maybe she wasn’t attractive enough to Ye Qiu.
By then, Ye Qiu had already returned to Jinling.
He went back to Peach Blossom Source Villa Community first and saw that everything was normal, then went to the Imperial Cuisine Restaurant and found that it was also operating as usual.
If that so‑called damn mother of Zhu Yunhui dared to send people here to make trouble, Ye Qiu wasn’t afraid to let her find out what crossing him meant.
"Mom, Dad, no one’s been here to cause trouble at the restaurant, right?"
"At first some people from government departments came to check, including the health bureau, fire department and so on, but they left very quickly," Ye Weidong said.
Left very quickly?
That had to be because Zhu Yunhui’s mother had put in a word somewhere, which was why they came.
After all, back when they first started renovating, Ye Qiu had already taught some suicidal urban management officers a lesson. For someone to dare come again now, there had to be someone backing it.
"Anything else? Like urban management and the like."
"No. I heard someone higher‑up said to come make trouble here, but they didn’t dare really provoke us, so they left."
Hearing this, Ye Qiu sneered even colder.
After telling his parents not to worry, Ye Qiu got in his car and drove off.
Just as he returned to Peach Blossom Source Villa Community, he saw a police car parked there—it was people from the City Police Bureau.
And Deputy Mayor Zhu was in charge of a sector directly related to the public security system. Now that Ye Qiu had beaten up the deputy mayor’s son, once Zhu Yunhui’s mother put in a word, of course they were going to come take him away.
"What are you trying to do?" Ye Qiu asked.
"You’re Ye Qiu? Someone accused you of assault, which already violates criminal law. You’re coming back with us to the bureau for investigation," that captain said.
Ye Qiu saw that it really was from the City Criminal Police Battalion, just not the same battalion as Zhao Ruxue’s.
"Fine, I’ll go with you."
Ye Qiu followed them without resistance.
When he got in the police car, the way these officers looked at him was like they were looking at a dead man. This kid actually had the nerve to beat the new Deputy Mayor Zhu’s son up like that.
But Ye Qiu was the same as ever, looking lazy and indifferent.
The police car headed back toward the City Police Bureau. As soon as they arrived, the officers had Ye Qiu get out and took him to an interrogation room.
Once inside, Ye Qiu sat down in the chair in the interrogation room.
The Criminal Police Battalion Commander started interrogating him like a criminal, going through all his information.
"I want a final confirmation. Were you the one who beat up Zhu Yunhui?"
"What, you mean him? Yeah, I’m the one who beat him," Ye Qiu admitted directly.
He really said the guy was his doing?
He just admitted it like that!
Too damn arrogant!
"Kid, then you’re dead for sure. If we don’t lock you up for a few years this time, you can forget about getting out. And the word from above is, you’re to be turned into a cripple too!" The Criminal Police Battalion Commander looked at Ye Qiu with a cold sneer as he spoke.
