Chapter 1408: Chapter 683: Officer Xu’s Righteousness_2

It really was quite stimulating. An Changhe felt he had studied quite well, already able to recite many problems backwards and forwards, but every time class began, he still listened attentively, repeatedly reinforcing those knowledge points, just afraid that come the college entrance exams, he wouldn’t be proficient enough and might lose a few crucial points due to minor slips.

But compared to Yan Fei, who appeared to have a photographic memory, as if everything was etched into his brain, there was a noticeable gap!

Yan Fei chuckled softly, "No, it’s just that I have a feeling today is my lucky day. I might just run into some good fortune."

"Alright then!" An Changhe didn’t quite get what he meant, and being not the type to pry, he didn’t ask further; he just cracked a joke. "There are five minutes left of class, why don’t you lay your head down on the desk and sleep for two minutes, and let the good fortune come to you in your dreams."

Yan Fei just hee-hee’d with a laugh and said no more.

The five minutes flew by, and in the blink of an eye, the bell rang for the end of class. Yan Fei grabbed two books that An Changhe had just given him and left in a hurry.

He didn’t expect that, riding his motorcycle and not yet reaching the government office, he would see Director Xu standing in front of the police station, his face full of anticipation as he looked this way. As soon as he saw Yan Fei, he waved from afar.

Yan Fei rode his motorcycle to Officer Xu’s side and stopped; before he could speak, his phone rang.

Picking up the call, he heard Lin Baoguo’s voice, which he hadn’t heard in two days: "Xiao Fei, what have you been up to again? You can’t seem to go a couple of days without making headlines, can you? After all, you’re now a renowned businessman. Getting into a fight with an old hooligan and saying those words, do you think that’s appropriate?"

Lin Baoguo rambled on without much praise, and of course, no harsh words either. Essentially, he was earnestly advising Yan Fei, reminding him to be mindful of his image, his social impact; now that he was a well-known businessman, he shouldn’t act like the naughty children of the past, whimsically doing whatever he wanted without worrying about the consequences...

In the end, he also urged Yan Fei to quickly think of a way to mitigate the impact of this incident; otherwise, it would be very bad for him.

What Yan Fei was really thinking, no one knew, but his verbal promises sounded quite pleasant. After Lin Baoguo himself had rambled on for a while, hearing Yan Fei’s breezy assurance that he would do as instructed, all Lin could do was sigh helplessly and murmur a few more words of advice before hanging up.

Finally ending the call, Yan Fei lifted his head to address Director Xu, who had been waiting patiently by his side: "Sorry, my uncle is not that old but hit menopause early. Once he starts talking, there’s no end. So, Director Xu, what is it you wanted?"

Director Xu, his face darkening, took a moment to utter a single sentence: "My menopause seems to be arriving early too."

There were still quite a few who kept an eye on Boss Yan. Officer Xu believed that he and Boss Yan had cooperated quite well before and after the New Year, and the two had built up a bit of a relationship. So, upon hearing an unsettling rumor, he called the office and, knowing that Yan Fei had gone to school, timed it to wait for him on the road.

After hearing Yan Fei’s phone call and realizing Lin Baoguo had phoned about the same issue, and being told by Yan Fei that the other party was going through menopause, Xu Changsheng couldn’t help but feel his own face turn black, especially considering the words he himself was about to deliver!

But what needed to be said had to be said; Xu Changsheng felt it was something he must do as a friend.

The bond of youth can form quickly.

Xu Changsheng had been in Sancha River township for quite some time now. Before the incident with the thief being killed, Yan Fei always avoided getting too involved with the police station. However, once they started to interact, Xu Changsheng now considered him a friend.

In fact, it was reality that made Xu Changsheng realize that what he initially found uncomfortable about Boss Yan’s actions eventually turned out to have quite noticeable effects.

After awkwardly handling the case of the killed thief, a lot of people from Sancha River township, including some who weren’t initially keen on interacting with him, now greeted him warmly when they saw him.

Then there was the crackdown on gambling; not only did it serve as a deterrent so that the local incidents of gambling had nearly been eradicated, but the added benefit was that Xu received commendations from the county, the city, and even some older relatives back home.

As everyone’s lives improved, playing cards and gambling during the New Year had become quite common in many places. Naturally, incidents arising from gambling were not unexpected.

Such incidents could hardly be considered coincidental. Director Xu’s uncompromising crackdown on rural gambling during the New Year was a typical example of acting on a problem before it escalated.

For those who held their jobs dearly, pulling off something like this meant a significant addition to their list of accomplishments. In fact, it’s no exaggeration to say that many in his profession would love to achieve such a feat—there’s simply no comparing the impact of responding to a call to action versus taking initiative before the call.

Although Yan Fei hadn’t considered all this, Xu Changsheng felt a sense of gratitude was in order.

So when he heard what Yan Fei had done at noon, he decided to ’go through menopause early,’ so to speak.

They were all young men, and Director Xu didn’t say too much, only indicating simply that he would handle the situation and minimize its impact. As for the debtor, Director Xu even expressed directly that he could use some connections to investigate the guy’s past.

Director Xu, with his inherited family learning, spoke in a reserved manner, but his intent was clear. For someone as shady as Zeng, a little digging was sure to uncover issues, and even if the problems were minor, teaching him a lesson with a warning was doable.

Director Xu indeed had this confidence. After receiving praises from his family over the phone, he mentioned that his achievements were inseparable from the support of a local businessman surnamed Yan.

His family’s response was clear—if you have received a favor from someone, the Xu family cannot lose face. If they help us and run into any trouble, as long as it’s not too much against the rules, you should lend a hand. The family will definitely support you all the way.

Yan Fei, however, just laughed it off, "I was just fooling around, trying to scare him. Don’t worry, nothing serious will come of it. As for my reputation or influence, I really don’t care. As long as I continue to expand the partnership in cattle farming and establish Wan City beef’s reputation, the impact of this little incident is nothing."

Director Xu was still a bit worried, "Should I inform my family just in case? If that Boss Zeng becomes desperate, and does something bad, won’t it be too late?"

Yan Fei reassured him, "Do you want me to show you how I can catch bullets with my hands? I’m not boasting, but unless he brings a machine gun, he really can’t do anything to me. You have to believe me. Even before my ’magical abilities’ were perfected, I’ve encountered people who confronted me with a gun, and where are they now?"

Director Xu immediately thought of the case files he had read and started to believe Yan Fei’s words, "You can really catch bullets?"

It’s said that the young have a rich imagination. Thinking this, Director Xu actually... stumbled upon the truth.

But Yan Fei backed off, as he truly wasn’t keen on performing such a feat—talk is one thing, but an actual demonstration might be too frightening.

"You believe me when I’m just boasting?" Yan Fei laughed it off. "But rest assured, even if he really has a gun, he still needs to aim and pull the trigger, right? If I can’t catch the bullet, can’t I still dodge it?"

The nonsensical talk left Director Xu muddled, unable to gauge the extent of Boss Yan’s capabilities. However, Yan Fei had achieved his goal, keeping Director Xu from fixating on calling his family.

Returning to his premises, Yan Fei ate a few bites of food, then took the materials he had brought back and, under the pretext of preparing for college entrance exams, confidently retreated to his room and closed the door.

He wasn’t really going to study—once you truly understand the material for the college entrance exam, that’s all there is to it—he was anxious to enter the world of dinosaurs.

Because in the Dahe Base of the dinosaur world, the laborers had etched a message on the ground: "Boss, we have something to report."

Obviously, the laborers wouldn’t dare bother their boss, who was like a great devil, without good reason. Daring to do such a thing must mean there was a real issue. This was the first time Yan Fei had encountered such a situation, and everyone has curiosity, right? How could he resist not checking out what the matter was!
