Chapter 740 -739: Woman Following
Bright knew that Harriman was definitely the party at fault, yet he hadn’t expected the whole affair to be so complicated.
He was even more surprised by how skilled Xu Yang was.
He took down over a dozen security personnel in just a few moves.
So skilled, so young, and also a billionaire with such potential.
Such a man was truly the envy of all.
Feeling a mix of admiration and relief, Bright also felt fortunate.
...
Fortunate that Richard had arrived.
Otherwise, if he had taken Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong back with him, he didn’t know what kind of trouble he would have stirred up.
At that time, his position as police chief might have been stripped away.
In front of Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong, he was just a little ant.
They had the friendship of Richard; a casual word from them could end his career completely.
Luckily, Richard appeared and gave him the chance to make amends.
Although he had shown bias towards Harriman just now, it could pass as being misled and deceived by Harriman.
Having seen the security footage, Richard couldn’t help but exclaim, “I really never expected, Mr. Xu, that you are also a martial arts expert. I know a few Hua Xia friends who run martial arts schools, but their skills clearly can’t compare to yours.”
Xu Yang humbly replied, “Mr. Richard, you overestimate me, how could I compare to the masters who run martial arts schools?”
Richard knew Xu Yang was being modest and didn’t say more, but turned to Bright and said, “Chief Bright, the truth is quite clear now. You see to it yourself, I just want to mention that we from the Beautiful Country are a nation of laws, and Mr. Xu, Mr. Wang, and I can afford top-notch lawyers. I hope you handle this properly.”
Bright’s forehead broke out in cold sweat.
He thought you could afford much more than top-notch lawyers, a luxurious team of golden attorneys could play the judges to death if they wanted.
With that in mind, Bright then said, “Mr. Richard, rest assured, I know what to do. I will definitely seek justice for both gentlemen. That’s my duty!”
Wang Xiaocong smiled and said, “That’s good, I trust you.”

Bright said, “Thank you, Mr. Wang.”
Then, he looked at Harriman, “Mr. Harriman, now that I am clear about the truth, you were rude and arrogant, brash and domineering, and physically assaulted Mr. Xu and Mr. Wang. Not only did you not apologize, but you had security personnel attack them. Luckily, Mr. Xu’s martial art is unrivaled, preventing your success. In the end, you drew a gun, intending to kill Mr. Wang, but it was Mr. Xu’s prowess again that disarmed you and broke your right hand, stopping a greater misdeed. Upon my arrival, you further distorted the truth, misled me, and nearly caused me to make a serious mistake. Your crimes are heinous, and I must arrest you and take you in for a thorough investigation. You will pay for your wrongdoing. Please do not resist, otherwise, I have the right to shoot you dead!”
His words were full of righteous indignation and resoundingly firm.
To the uninformed, he might seem a very upright police chief indeed.
Having said that, he waved his hand, and immediately two policemen stepped forward and handcuffed Harriman.
“What are you doing? You can’t arrest me; I’m a popular singer with many fans. If you arrest me, countless fans will make trouble, and you won’t be able to bear the consequences!” Harriman refused to be taken so easily, struggling fiercely.
“Take him to the car, back to the station!” Bright ordered, completely ignoring him with a wave of his hand.
The two policemen immediately took the struggling and shouting Harriman to the police car.
Bright turned to the three men and said, “Mr. Xu, Mr. Wang, Mr. Richard, I assure you that Harriman will receive just treatment. Are you satisfied with this outcome?”
Xu Yang nodded and said, “That’s fine.”
Wang Xiaocong said, “Hopefully as you said.”
Richard said, “If my friends have no objections, then neither do I.”
Bright let out a sigh of relief; he was afraid the three heavyweights would not be satisfied.
As long as they were satisfied, he should be safe.
Then, he looked at Xu Yang, “Mr. Xu, please give me the firearm in your hand; it is evidence, and I need to take it back with me.”
“Alright.” Xu Yang handed the gun to Bright.
“Thank you.” Bright bowed respectfully and took the gun with both hands.
“By the way, Mr. Xu, Mr. Wang, Mr. Richard, as for Miss Catherine, how would you like to handle it? The words she said earlier could be seen as threatening you. If you want to pursue it, I can take her in as well.”
Bright glanced at Catherine beside him and couldn’t help but ask.
Although this matter didn’t have much to do with Catherine, she had just arrived, saying she wanted to do something to Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong.
So regarding Catherine, there also had to be a conclusion.
Originally, someone like Catherine was difficult for him to cozy up to.
After all, Catherine had a net worth of several billion U.S. dollars, while he was just a petty sheriff.
But in the presence of Xu Yang and the two others, Catherine’s importance greatly diminished.
Serving the wealthiest was his principle.
All three turned to look at Catherine.
It must be said, Catherine was a very beautiful woman.
Moreover, being middle-aged, in her thirties or forties, she was at an age when a woman’s charm was at its peak.
A black evening gown accentuated her slightly voluptuous figure.
Many men couldn’t resist the seduction of such a woman.
But now, this woman’s fate lay in the hands of Xu Yang and the two others.
Wang Xiaocong asked, “Xu Yang, what do you think?”
Xu Yang replied, “She hasn’t really done anything to us, let it go.”
He truly didn’t think it was a big deal.
She had just come over and made a scene, saying they would pay a heavy price.
That was it, no need to pursue the matter further.
Wang Xiaocong nodded and said, “I think so too.”
Then, he turned to Richard, “Mr. Richard, what about you?”
Richard shrugged his shoulders, “As I’m not involved in this matter, it’s up to you all to decide how to handle it.”
He had heard about Catherine, that she was a capable woman, fond of sponsoring young studs in the entertainment industry.
Of course, that was her private affair, and Richard was not interested in getting involved.
Wang Xiaocong said to Catherine, “Since that’s the case, you may leave.”
The conversation among the three had been in Chinese.
Now Wang Xiaocong switched to English.
Catherine naturally didn’t understand their exchange and waited anxiously for their verdict.
She knew the moment that would decide her fate had arrived.
Upon hearing Wang Xiaocong’s words, she sighed in relief as if pardoned, and bowed deeply, “Thank you, Mr. Xu, thank you, Mr. Wang, thank you, Mr. Richard.”
As she bowed, a large expanse of snowy white was exposed at her chest.
It was intentional, a bid to see if she could catch the attention of the three men.
Unfortunately, their expressions and eyes showed no change.
Catherine could only sigh inwardly, turn around, and leave, getting into her own car.
She didn’t instruct her driver to leave, but waited in the car instead.
Seeing that Bright left and Xu Yang, Wang Xiaocong, and Richard parted ways, she ordered her driver to follow Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong.
When Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong went to a restaurant to eat, she followed.
When Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong returned to the hotel, she followed.
Only after confirming which hotel and which room Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong were staying in did she leave.
