Chapter 898 Starting tonight, things may not be the same
”Wait a minute!” Xu Xiuwen stopped the short-haired man.
The short-haired man looked over.
Xu Xiuwen asked, “Did Qiao xx ask you to come to the store to cause trouble?”
The short-haired man might have been resentful, so he didn’t hide it and admitted it directly.
”So what?”
Wen Ning saw that the situation seemed to have changed, and turned around and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Xu Xiuwen said, “I know the person who asked them to come. He is the husband of an employee in my store.”
Wen Ning frowned and asked, “What’s going on?”
Xu Xiuwen said, “It’s hard to explain.”
After hearing this, Wen Ning said to the short-haired man, “Where is that person?”
The short-haired man said, “He was waiting for us outside just now, and he shouldn’t have gone far.”
”Call him over and go back with us to be investigated together!” Wen Ning ordered. The
short-haired man immediately turned around and said to a man who was traveling with him, “Go find him and bring him over.”
The man immediately did as he was told.
The chefs in the back kitchen also put down their work and rushed over.
Chef He walked up to Xu Xiuwen and said, “Boss Xu, whoever comes here to cause trouble, I’ll chop him up.”
Xu Xiuwen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
He waved his hand and said, “It’s okay, it’s been solved. You can go back to the kitchen first, the guests are waiting for you to serve the dishes.”
”Then call me if you have anything, I’ll be there at any time.” Chef He also saw the police and thought that everything should be fine, so he took a group of chef apprentices back to the kitchen.
In less than two minutes.
The man came back again.
The person who came with him was also Qiao’s father.
Qiao’s father was pushed back to the store.
It is not difficult to see from his expression that he should not be voluntary.
Wen Ning walked up directly and asked, “Did you organize this group of people to cause trouble?”
Qiao’s father immediately denied it.
Wen Ning said in a deep voice, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t admit it now, come back to the bureau with me and slowly understand it.”
The short-haired man on the side suddenly asked, “Beautiful policewoman, he has been arrested by you, so we don’t have to go.”
”What nonsense, do you think you can run away?”
The short-haired man was very disappointed when he heard it.
He thought that if he called Qiao’s father over, the female police officer would be kind enough to let them go.
If he had known that the owner of this restaurant had such a close relationship with the police, he would not have gotten involved in this mess.
At that time, when Qiao’s father found him, he did not tell him that the owner of this restaurant knew someone.
He also thought that Ruowenlou was just like an ordinary restaurant and the owner had no relationship.
The short-haired man regretted it very much now.
Thinking of this, he could not help but hate Qiao’s father.
The short-haired man turned his head and glared at Qiao’s father, shouting: “Qiao xx, you dare to cheat me, you wait for me…”
Qiao’s father trembled when he heard this, with a little fear on his face, but his eyes were a little darker.
”What are you talking about? Be honest!” The male police officer next to him immediately scolded.
Wen Ning said: “Take these people back to the bureau first, and don’t interfere with other people’s business.”
”Okay.” The male police officer responded.
At this moment, Father Qiao suddenly looked up at Wen Ning and asked, “Why don’t you take them back to the bureau for investigation? Why did you arrest us? You are abusing your power and bending the law.”
Father Qiao’s sudden questioning caught Wen Ning off guard.
She was about to explain.
Father Qiao suddenly shouted to the crowd, “The boss here is committing adultery with my wife, and she beat me up before. Now the police are here to arrest me instead of this couple. Is there any law? Are we ordinary people going to be bullied like this?”
The surroundings suddenly became quiet.
Everyone looked at Mu Zhilan and Xu Xiuwen.
Seeing that Mu Zhilan was a beautiful woman with a charming and pitiful appearance,
everyone believed it a little.
However, it can still be seen that there is an age difference between Xu Xiuwen and Mu Zhilan.
Wen Ning also cast a puzzled look at Xu Xiuwen.
Mu Zhilan’s legs softened and she almost fell down.
Fortunately, the female clerk next to her supported her in time.
Mu Zhilan felt dizzy.
Although she knew that she and Xu Xiuwen were just siblings,
would others believe it? What
would the girls in the store think?
When she thought about facing other people’s suspicious and contemptuous eyes in the future,
Mu Zhilan felt that her life was bleak.
At this time, feeling the eyes of the crowd, Xu Xiuwen was calm on the surface, but he was already a little angry in his heart.
He said loudly: “Right and wrong are all in the hearts of the people. It is meaningless to spread rumors and slander about things that have not happened.”
Xu Xiuwen did not explain in detail like he did last night, but said this.
His image and temperament are too excellent.
Coupled with his calm appearance at this moment, and his calm but powerful tone.
The onlookers unconsciously wanted to believe him.
Even the group of short-haired men, looking at Xu Xiuwen’s sunny and handsome image, couldn’t help but wonder if Qiao’s father was spreading rumors.
Such a rich and well-connected boss, what kind of young girls can’t find, do you need to commit adultery with your wife?
The suspicion in Wen Ning’s eyes gradually disappeared.
Because the matter was complicated, she thought for a moment and said, “You two should come back with us to the bureau and cooperate with the investigation.”
”Okay.” Xu Xiuwen nodded and agreed immediately.
Mu Zhilan was already at a loss, not knowing where she was, and felt dizzy.
Xu Xiuwen said, “But can you wait a while? I’ll tell the people in the store.”
Wen Ning said, “We’ll go back first, and it’s okay for you to come back later.”
”Thank you.”
Then Wen Ning took Mr. Qiao and the others away.
Xu Xiuwen turned around and glanced at Mu Zhilan.
The other party’s distraught look at the moment was heartbreaking.
He said to the female clerk beside him: “Help Sister Mu to the third floor.”
The female clerk hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed.
Then Xu Xiuwen bowed to the crowd and said loudly: “What happened tonight is all the responsibility of our Ruowen Building. I am deeply sorry for affecting everyone’s dining. All the guests who are dining tonight, I will treat you to this meal. Guests who have paid but have not left, please return the money.” When
Xu Xiuwen said this, the crowd was stunned and immediately expressed their gratitude.
Some people shouted words like “the boss is generous”.
The female employees in the store were also stunned.
Xu Xiuwen has not appeared many times in the past few days since the store opened, but today he left a deep impression on everyone.
The girls’ eyes were full of admiration and other emotions.
Some girls were even eager to make a move.
Let’s
get back to the point.
After explaining the things in the store, Xu Xiuwen went upstairs.
After Xu Xiuwen entered the manager’s office, he saw Mu Zhilan and the girl.
He nodded to the girl and said, “There’s nothing for you to do now. Go back to work first.”
”Okay, boss.”
The girl left, but before she left, she secretly glanced at Xu Xiuwen several times.
After the girl left.
Xu Xiuwen walked to Mu Zhilan and comforted her, “Sister Mu, don’t be sad because of that kind of person. It’s not worth it.”
Mu Zhilan came back to her senses and looked into Xu Xiuwen’s eyes.
Her eyes were red.
”Xiuwen, why is my life so miserable? I obviously didn’t do anything to let him down. Why did he treat me like this…”
Xu Xiuwen said nothing, but took another step forward.
Mu Zhilan hesitated for a second, and then gently leaned her head on his shoulder.
After a minute, or maybe five minutes,
Mu Zhilan stood up again.
She wiped the corners of her eyes with both hands, forced a smile and said, “I’m fine. Don’t we still have to go to the police station? Let’s go quickly.”
Xu Xiuwen
nodded, and then turned around and walked out of the room.
Afterwards, Xu Xiuwen drove Mu Zhilan to the police station.
After that, it was a normal investigation and questioning.
There are minor and serious cases of provoking trouble. Those with serious cases may be detained or put under surveillance, while those with minor cases may only receive verbal education.
The behavior of people like the short-haired man is a minor offense.
At most, they will be detained for a few days for education. It is difficult to get them to go in.
After the questioning, Wen Ning quietly pulled Xu Xiuwen aside and asked, “How do you want to solve it?”
”Do whatever you should do.”
Wen Ning said, “That Qiao xx can be released directly or detained for a few days…”
Although Wen Ning did not say it very clearly, the meaning was already expressed.
Detention or release depends on his mood.
Xu Xiuwen did not speak.
Wen Ning continued, “Do you want to ask Mu Zhilan? After all, they are husband and wife.”
”Forget it.” Xu Xiuwen finally decided not to pursue it.
It was not because he was so generous and had forgiven Qiao’s father.
It was because he considered Mu Zhilan’s feelings.
Wen Ning nodded, “Then I know.”
In the end, the short-haired man and his group were detained and fined, while Qiao’s father was released directly. The short-
haired man and his group were dumbfounded.
Qiao’s father asked them to make trouble.
As a result, Qiao’s father was fine.
Instead, they were detained and fined.
After the matter was handled.
Xu Xiuwen found Wen Ning and said, “I’m sorry to bother you today. I’ll treat you to dinner another day.”
Wen Ning glanced at him and said, “Is this true? You said you’d treat me to dinner last time, but you haven’t done it yet.”
”Of course it’s true. I’ve been too busy recently. I’ll treat you when I’m not busy for a while.”
”Can I bring someone with me?”
Xu Xiuwen thought of Wen Ning’s group of good sisters.
He smiled and nodded and said, “Of course.”
Wen Ning suddenly asked, “Are you and Mu Zhilan really not that kind of relationship?”
Xu Xiuwen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
”Am I that kind of person in your eyes?”
Wen Ning said, “Not really, but you can only know a person’s face but not his heart. Who knows what kind of person you are?”
”I said a lot of good things for you in front of He Jiang before, and you still doubt me now. I’m so sad.”
Who would have thought that Wen Ning’s face changed.
She glared at Xu Xiuwen and said, “Don’t mention him in front of me in the future.”
Then she turned and left.
Xu Xiuwen: “…”
Did they quarrel again?
He always thought that He Jiang was not smart enough.
He Jiang and Wen Ning grew up together as childhood sweethearts and had a deep relationship.
Only He Jiang could do such a thing
as not cherishing such a good childhood sweetheart and falling in love with a girl who sings in a bar.
Xu Xiuwen thought about himself again.
He and Xiao Youran were childhood sweethearts, but he fell in love with Cheng Lu.
But he was different from He Jiang.
He Jiang liked Miss Su and ignored Wen Ning.
But Xu Xiuwen wanted everything.
But when he thought of Xiao Youran, Xu Xiuwen had a headache.
It seemed that she was really angry this time.
I don’t know how long it will take to coax her.
I hope Du Qingling and An Shishi can be more helpful and say more good things for him.
Girls like to listen to friends and besties around them.
After coming out of the police station.
Xu Xiuwen found Qiao’s father and said he wanted to talk to him.
Qiao’s father’s eyes turned red when he saw Xu Xiuwen and Mu Zhilan.
But in the end he agreed to Xu Xiuwen’s proposal to talk.
Then the three of them came to a nearby park.
Xu Xiuwen said straight to the point: “Sister Mu is planning to divorce you. If you have any requests, just say it directly.”
Mu Zhilan was shocked when she heard this.
She immediately turned her head to look at Xu Xiuwen, her eyes full of surprise and confusion.
But she didn’t object.
She remained silent.
Such behavior was close to acquiescence.
At least that was how Qiao’s father saw it.
Qiao’s father was so angry that his body trembled.
He looked extremely emotional.
He gritted his teeth and cursed fiercely: “You bitch, you dare to say you didn’t commit adultery!”
Xu Xiuwen frowned displeased.
But he was too lazy to refute.
Whatever Qiao’s father thought.
Qiao’s father said excitedly: “I won’t divorce. Even if I die, I will die with this bitch. Don’t think of getting rid of me.”
Xu Xiuwen said: “You don’t need to say such words to scare people. Your marriage with Sister Mu has long been dead in name only. Even if you don’t agree, it doesn’t matter. You can still file for divorce. Do you think this marriage can be divorced after going to court? While I’m not angry now, you should be sensible. Just tell me how much money you want. For Sister Mu’s sake, I can give it to you.”
Hearing this, Mu Zhilan wanted to stop him.
Xu Xiuwen had taken good care of her.
She couldn’t let Xu Xiuwen spend money for her divorce.
But she didn’t want to oppose Xu Xiuwen in front of Qiao’s father.
She secretly thought that no matter how much money Xu Xiuwen gave to Qiao’s father, she would return it to Xu Xiuwen when she saved up enough money.
Qiao’s father was like a wolf, staring at Xu Xiuwen.
Of course he knew Xu Xiuwen was not bragging.
If it really came to that,
he would have to divorce even if he didn’t want to.
Xu
Xiuwen casually said, “If you agree, just make an offer and tell me how much you want now. If
you don’t agree, sue me.” Qiao’s father said, “If I divorce her, you can be together legitimately, right? I tell you, don’t even think about it. I won’t divorce her unless I die!”
Seeing that Qiao’s father was stubborn,
Xu Xiuwen didn’t want to waste more saliva with him.
He turned to look at Mu Zhilan and said, “In that case, let’s go.”
Mu Zhilan looked at Qiao’s father with a complicated expression, and then nodded.
Watching Xu Xiuwen and Mu Zhilan leave.
Qiao’s father still stood there.
His wife was slept with by someone else, and he was forced to divorce.
The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt.
Finally…
Xu Xiuwen had good ears, and suddenly heard footsteps approaching behind him.
He glanced back and saw Qiao’s father rushing over.
The latter was holding a shiny folding knife in his hand.
His target was not Xu Xiuwen, but Mu Zhilan.
Qiao’s father knew that he was no match for Xu Xiuwen.
He was unwilling to be indifferent to this humiliation.
As soon as he got angry, he thought about killing Mu Zhilan first.
In short, he couldn’t let this stinky bitch run away with another man.
”Be careful…”
Xu Xiuwen shouted, and immediately reached out to hug Mu Zhilan’s shoulders and pulled her into his arms.
Before Mu Zhilan understood what was going on, she threw herself into Xu Xiuwen’s arms.
She smelled the pleasant smell on Xu Xiuwen’s body.
How to describe that smell, it was not the smell of perfume, but it was particularly pleasant.
But before she could figure out what it was.
She
heard Xu Xiuwen scream.
Then she saw Xu Xiuwen turn around and kick behind him.
”Ah!” This time it was Qiao’s father who screamed.
Mu Zhilan woke up instantly.
She asked anxiously: “Xiuwen, are you okay?”
She immediately lowered her head to check if Xu Xiuwen was injured.
Xu Xiuwen grimaced.
There was a cut on his left arm, and blood was flowing.
Mu Zhilan panicked instantly.
”Xiuwen, let’s go to the hospital…”
Tears instantly flowed from her eyes.
Xu Xiuwen was injured to protect her.
And the person who hurt him was her husband.
Xu Xiuwen waved his hand and said, “I’m fine, don’t cry.”
Mu Zhilan cried, “You are bleeding, and you still say you are fine.”
”It’s just a scratch, it’s not a big problem. Call the police first.”
Xu Xiuwen turned his head to look at Qiao’s father, who was kicked away by him just now, to prevent the other party from continuing to attack and hurt people.
Qiao’s father was kicked to the ground.
He really wanted to attack and hurt people.
But his stomach was like a churning sea.
He couldn’t get up for a while.
Mu Zhilan immediately did as she was told, took out her mobile phone, and started to call the police.
While Mu Zhilan was calling the police, Xu Xiuwen walked towards Qiao’s father.
Seeing this, Mu Zhilan hurriedly said, “Don’t go over there, he has a knife.”
”It’s okay, he can’t hurt me.”
Xu Xiuwen smiled at Mu Zhilan.
But when he turned around.
The smile on his face disappeared little by little.
Finally, his face was expressionless.
He was really angry with Qiao’s father.
Xu Xiuwen is really not a person who gets angry easily.
The last time he got angry was when he was angry with Wan Wei. (High school classmate)
And that time he retaliated
against three people. Xu Xiuwen slowly walked to Qiao’s father.
Seeing this, Qiao’s father immediately grabbed the folding knife and held it horizontally in front of him in a defensive posture.
But Xu Xiuwen stepped directly on his wrist.
”Ah~” Qiao’s father immediately made a painful sound.
The folding knife quickly fell from his hand.
The louder Qiao’s father screamed, the harder Xu Xiuwen crushed him.
The screams echoed in the park.
It was quite terrifying.
Even Mu Zhilan couldn’t help but cast a glance.
But she said nothing.
Xu Xiuwen looked down at Qiao’s father and asked, “Do you think I’m young, so no matter what you do, I won’t care?”
Qiao’s father was in unbearable pain and begged, “I was wrong…”
”Hehe…” Xu Xiuwen chuckled.
”Too late!”
Xu Xiuwen leaned closer and said in a low voice, “Whether you believe it or not, Sister Mu and I are innocent. But… starting from tonight, it may not be certain.”
Qiao’s father was still a little skeptical when he heard the first sentence.
However, after hearing the latter, how could he not understand Xu Xiuwen’s meaning.
He immediately started to curse.
The curse was extremely ugly.
Xu Xiuwen stood up straight, suddenly raised his foot and kicked Qiao’s father’s waist from the side.
One kick… two kicks…
”I asked you to curse…”
Violence is addictive.
Xu Xiuwen kicked harder and harder.
Qiao’s father cursed at first, but his voice quickly subsided.
At this time.
Xu Xiuwen’s hand was suddenly grabbed by someone.
He turned around and saw that
it was Mu Zhilan.
Mu Zhilan looked at Xu Xiuwen and pleaded, “Xiuwen, don’t…”
Xu Xiuwen seemed to wake up suddenly.
He stopped immediately.
Because it was right next to the police station.
Wen Ning came over quickly.
Seeing Mr. Qiao lying on the ground, she didn’t pay attention to him first, but walked to Xu Xiuwen first.
”Xu Xiuwen, are you hurt?” Wen Ning’s tone was quite nervous.
Xu Xiuwen raised his arm, took a look at the injury, and said with a smile, “It’s okay.”
Wen Ning also saw his injury and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it was just a scratch on his arm.
Then she looked at Mr. Qiao on the ground and asked, “What’s wrong with him?”
Xu Xiuwen smiled.
He looked harmless and said, “I used a little too much force when I was defending myself just now, so he might have fainted.”
