Old Li is an experienced police officer in Ninghai City. He knows many people and has heard others mention some of Ye Fan's feats in Mingde County. He has nothing but praise for Ye Fan.
"Ye Fan... No, I should call you Deputy Director Ye. How about you come to our police station in Ninghai City for a bit and share some of your advanced experiences?" Old Li invited enthusiastically.
"Well..." Ye Fan glanced at Qing Xu beside him, seemingly saying, I brought my sister along, it's inconvenient.
Sister Xu's beautiful eyes darted around: "So you're the Deputy Director Ye those old folks often talk about. Achieving the role of Mingde County's Executive Deputy Director at such a young age is quite the feat. Why, aren't you giving us face? This traffic accident isn't resolved yet, you must come with us now."
Old Li complained, "Xiao Xu, don't be so rude to Deputy Director Ye. We can't embarrass our Ninghai City's colleagues. Deputy Director Ye, here's the thing, there was a major case that just happened in Ninghai City. All the police officers were mobilized for it, and it's the case of Sun Ronghe. You came here for that as well, right?"
Ye Fan said embarrassedly, "I'm just passing through."
"Passing through? Then you might as well pass by the station as well, it's not far. Here's the deal, you drive and follow us, it won't take too long." Old Li persisted.
If he hadn't revealed his identity, it would have been just an ordinary ID card, but Old Li recognized him as a policing peer from Mingde County. Now, with the "traffic accident" staged by Qing Xu still unresolved, it seemed reasonable for them to take him back for a statement.
"Can I take my sister home first?" Ye Fan asked.
The lady in white, who had been sobbing for quite a while, stood up and said, "It's this little girl. She's a devil, don't let her go!"
Sister Xu retorted, "I don't care if you're Director Zhang's daughter, you're currently suspected of drunk driving, and the traffic police will come to test you for DUI right away. Don't think about running away, I'm telling you, sit tight!"
Before long, the traffic police also arrived. After a series of troublesome matters, the women in white and red were both handcuffed. The woman in white loudly protested: "Hurry, take me away, these two are devils. I'll have my dad pull the road surveillance, then you'll know how terrifying these two devils are..."
Sister Xu yelled, "Still shouting, huh? I'll tell you, the surveillance on this section of the road has long been broken."
"Why is it that other places aren't broken, but this section is? You all cover for each other as police officers. I'll tell my dad to have your positions revoked!" the woman in white shouted.
Old Li said, "Enough, stop with the nonsense, take them back to sober up. It's so troublesome. I thought everything was over tonight, but it turned into a big mess."
Sister Xu laughed, "Oh, Old Li, who said you got into a mess? It's not about me, right?"
Old Li glanced at Sister Xu and ignored her, then greeted Ye Fan, asking him to drive and follow them to Ninghai City's main bureau.
...
...
At the bureau, a group of people who had just finished their work surrounded Ye Fan, virtually treating him like the star of the police department.
Some young female officers also came over to ask for Ye Fan's autograph, prompting Sister Xu's gaze to rest continuously on Ye Fan's face, "I didn't realize you're so famous?"
Ye Fan smiled shyly, "It's all just some empty fame."
"Pfft, when praised, you're quick to agree. Do you believe..." Sister Xu was about to say something when someone beside her suddenly called out.
"Hey, Sister Xu, it's your son's call."
That one sentence promptly brought Sister Xu back to reality. She glared at the person and said, "Got it!"
With that, Sister Xu moved towards the next office.
Old Li came over and said, "Ye Fan, don't mind her. Xiao Xu is actually a good person. She was the belle of the police team back then, but she got married early, to a model husband. Unfortunately, her husband died in a confrontation with a suspect while on duty a few years ago, and now she's raising a son alone."
Ye Fan nodded, "I see."
A woman, around thirty, right at the age of a tigress, yet she's a widow, no wonder seeing a man makes her act like a cat smelling fish.
Ye Fan made his statement; as long as he didn't admit to overturning the car and since his car remained undamaged, no one would believe he was involved in the accident. Was he supposed to take a hammer and smash the two women's cars into scrap metal?
Old Li was familiar with Ye Fan, and talking to him felt like chatting with an old friend. Old Li laughed, "Alright, Ye Fan, you can go back now. It's getting late, and I've been out all night. My wife and kids are waiting at home."
Sister Xu, after finishing her call with her son, came out and said, "Old Li, do you still have the face to talk about wife and kids? I think your wife has been living like a widow for years, haven't she?"
"Xiao Xu, what are you saying?" Old Li looked slightly embarrassed.
"Alright, alright, Ye Fan, how about I give you a ride back?" Sister Xu smiled at Ye Fan, "I have something I'd like to ask you, just take it as a favor returned."
Ye Fan said, perplexed, "Sister Xu wants to ask me something?"
"What? Unwilling to help?" Sister Xu's expression turned cold, "I know Director Zhao."
Hearing "Director Zhao," Ye Fan instantly felt uneasy; knowing Zhao Lina, she might have gone mad trying to find him at this point. If this woman told Zhao Lina he was here, Zhao Lina might come to Ninghai City directly, drag him back.
Ye Fan chuckled, "Is there something Sister Xu needs help with, I'm more than willing to help. Qing Xu, we're heading home."
Qing Xu cheerfully replied, "Okay."
Sister Xu patted Qing Xu's small head, "Your name is Qing Xu? It's a nice name. So Ye Fan, you said she's your half-sister? Does she also carry the Ye surname?"
Ye Fan grimaced, "It was just a joke."
"A joke? I think you're afraid to admit it, worried your mom would find out?" Sister Xu said, leading the way, "Don't worry, I'm tight-lipped, as long as you… don't offend me."
Ye Fan thought, women are indeed the most dangerous creatures in the world, getting tangled up with Ninghai City police over nothing.
Old Li was easy to deal with, just wanting him to come back for a statement and get acquainted, but Sister Xu was like the White Bone Demon who wanted to devour him.
The two of them went downstairs together, and Sister Xu said, "Your car only seats two people. Why don't you take my car instead? It's not as good as yours, but it's a new car. Hmm... Ye Fan, you're just a policeman, how come you drive a sports car? Oh, I get it, it's your father..."
Sister Xu was answering her own questions, so Ye Fan didn't have to say much as she answered for him.
Ye Fan said, "Actually... my wife does some small business on her side. The car isn't mine."
"Wife?" Sister Xu's eyes were somewhat unfriendly as she looked Ye Fan over again, "You seem quite young; are you already married, or... just a girlfriend? Better not get into all that collusion between government and business, is your girlfriend's business also in Mingde County?"
"No, it's in Hua Hai City." Ye Fan laughed.
"Does it make a difference? Anyway, how about this, then? Qing Xu, little sister, I'll have a police officer take you home, and I'll drive with your brother back, okay?" Sister Xu used a tactic against little girls on Qing Xu.
