Going home for Chinese New Year, I squeezed onto a bus with three energetic young women.

Bai Li's face was full of black lines.

This crazy woman was already on a stretcher, almost half dead, but before she left, she still tried to extort millions of dollars in betrothal gifts.

Before Bai Li could speak...

Zhang Qian could no longer contain her anger.

The young delinquent girl put her hands on her slender waist and pointed at Zhao Min on the stretcher, cursing loudly.

"Are you fucking money-mad?!"

"What, are all the men in Quanping County the father of your bastard child?"

Zhang Qian's insults became increasingly fluent, radiating a powerful social aura.

"This is the first time my brother has ever seen such a piece of trash as you!"

"I've never even touched you before! Even if you wanted to rummage through the trash, you wouldn't even have a chance to pick up a used condom!"

Several young men and women watching the commotion covered their mouths and chuckled.

The team leader was a shrewd individual.

He was eager to curry favor with Bai Li, so why would he bother with a madwoman like Zhao Min?

"Alright! Stop talking nonsense!"

The captain stepped forward, grabbed Zhao Min's arm with his large hand, and pressed it down hard:

"This woman is extremely mentally unstable and spouting nonsense! Take her away immediately and call it a day!"

The two officers understood and pushed the stretcher outside.

"Let go! You're hurting me!" Zhao Min struggled desperately as she lay on the stretcher.

"I'm a woman! Why are you treating me like this! You should be giving in to me!!"

Her face was filled with grievance and resentment, and she even started to shed tears:

"What did I do wrong?"

"I'm just a simple, cute little girl who wants to become a better person!"

"Is it wrong for me to fight for the life I want?!"

The captain frowned deeply and delivered the final verdict:

"The target is still endangering public order and causing trouble! That's an even more serious offense; when you get back, you must apply to your superiors for an additional six months' sentence!"

"I don't want to go to jail! I'm innocent!" Zhao Min rolled around on the stretcher like a madwoman.

Seeing that no one paid attention, she actually opened her mouth and bit down hard on the wrist of the police officer pushing the cart.

The officer released his grip in pain.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zhao Min rolled over on the stretcher, raised her blood-stained foot, and delivered a heavy kick to the thigh of another police officer.

The officer who was kicked was not angry at all; instead, he looked ecstatic.

He patted the footprints on his trouser leg, pointed at Zhao Min, and shouted.

"Assaulting a police officer!"

The officer's voice was unusually loud, and his tone was full of excitement at having made a contribution:

"I've been waiting for you to kick me like that!"

"The messes you've made would have come to light in twenty and a half years anyway."

"Now, with multiple charges combined, plus assaulting a police officer, you'll get at least forty years! You'll never get out of there in your lifetime!"

Upon hearing that she was to be sentenced to forty years, Zhao Min rolled her eyes, completely losing the ability to resist, and let the men drag her toward the bar door.

All of this has been taken care of.

Several police officers looked at Bai Li with pride on their faces, their expressions clearly saying, "You're welcome."

The captain rubbed his hands together, bent over, and approached Bai Li.

"Young Master Bai," the captain said in a low voice, with a hint of obsequiousness.

"I wonder if Boss Li is doing well?"

The meaning of these words couldn't be clearer.

I was so proud of myself for doing such a great job tonight, helping Young Master Bai get rid of a piece of dog poop.

If Bai Shao could just casually mention him to Li Fugui, or even offer a little guidance, Li Fugui's career in Ping County would truly take off like a rocket.

He's so eager to improve!

Bai Li naturally understood the intricacies of human relationships.

This kind of thing, which goes with the flow, is done without any effort.

"It's fine. Don't worry." Bai Li patted the captain on the shoulder, his tone casual. "Okay, I'll catch up with Uncle Fugui in a couple of days."

The captain's stern face instantly blossomed into a smile.

"Alright! I'm relieved to hear that!"

The captain stood at attention, his posture even more upright than before.

"Then I won't disturb you guys any longer, Young Master Bai. Let's call it a day!"

Police officers quickly evacuated the area, pushing the stretcher.

Zhao Min's shrill screams faded into the distance, followed by several faint but extremely clear sizzling sounds of electric batons.

Finally, after Zhao Min disappeared from everyone's sight...

In booth number eight.

Wang Wei's eyes were filled with utter admiration for Bai Li.

No wonder he lives in the Heavenly Palace No. 1 in the Clouds. With just a few words, he sent that wicked woman who had caused so much harm to serve forty years in prison.

Cool!

He finally vented his pent-up anger, which he had been holding in for half a year, with remarkable efficiency.

Ai Tianbi, standing next to her, was trembling and shaking.

His family runs a clandestine illegal mining business. Although they often bribe officials, they are most wary of government officials.

Today, witnessing the captain's obsequious demeanor towards Bai Li, his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

I was actually showing off in front of this man just now?

If you really anger the other party, they only need to say one word, and your whole family will probably end up in jail singing "Tears Behind Bars".

Lili stood in the corner, having watched the whole thing, and looked like a wilted eggplant.

She lost that duplex apartment and also lost Lin Yongde, who doted on her.

The culprit behind all of this was that he listened to the brainwashing and toxic motivational rhetoric of that crazy woman.

Lili raised her swollen eyes and looked at Bai Li and Wang Wei with a complicated expression.

She dragged her heavy steps to Wang Wei's side.

"Thank you." Lily lowered her head, her voice hoarse and barely audible.

"If it weren't for you guys, I'm afraid I would have been kept in the dark by that scoundrel for the rest of my life."

She wiped away the tears on her face and looked at Wang Wei again:

"I apologize for my previous mistake. I shouldn't have been sarcastic towards you... I'm sorry."

These few words of apology only earned them silence.

Bai Li couldn't be bothered with this kind of idiot at all.

Wang Wei merely glanced at her coldly without saying a word.

We're all adults. If you've been brainwashed and your brain is filled with water, you have to pay the price for your stupidity.

My current predicament is entirely my own doing.

Seeing that no one paid any attention to her, Lili gave a bitter laugh, turned around and walked out of the bar with a desolate look on her face.

"Let's go too."

Bai Li straightened the collar of his trench coat and put his hands in his pockets:

"This farce is over."

Wang Wei nodded vigorously, his face showing an unprecedented level of relaxation.

Just as Bai Li and Wang Wei were about to leave.

"Young Master Bai...!"

Ai Tianbi mustered all the courage she had ever had and stammered out her words.

Bai Li stopped and turned to look at him.

Ai Tianbi didn't even have the courage to look directly into those peach blossom eyes.

He lowered his head, clasped his hands together, and bowed deeply towards Wang Wei's position.

"Um..." Ai Tianbi's voice trembled.

"Wang Wei... I should also say sorry to you."

Looking at the miserable state of this rival who once stole Zhao Min's heart.

Wang Wei let out a long breath.

"fine."

"Seeing how badly you and Zhao Min are doing, and how your fates are getting worse and worse."

"Even the deepest grudges and bitter hatreds... I've let them all go."

After saying that, Wang Wei didn't look at Ai Tianbi again.

He turned around and followed Bai Li and Zhang Qian eagerly, and the three of them walked out of this smoky and chaotic place together.

Midnight on the street.

The evening breeze swept across the main road of Ping County, bringing a touch of coolness.

Wang Wei took two quick steps and grabbed Bai Li's hand.

"Brother Li." Wang Wei held Bai Li's hand, his eyes slightly red.

"Thank you so much for today."

"You made me see that woman's true colors completely, and you also made me give up my last bit of hope."

He casually wiped his face with his sleeve, then puffed out his chest with a grin:

"Starting tomorrow, I'm going to work hard! Making money is the only way!"

Bai Li felt somewhat gratified upon hearing this.

This guy has finally climbed out of the mire.

Before he could even offer a word of encouragement, Wang Wei suddenly changed his tune.

"Also..." Wang Wei lowered his voice, his fat face getting closer, his expression extremely lewd:

"Brother Li, to repay you, I'm giving you my butt..."

Bai Li felt a chill run down her neck and her stomach churned.

He quickly shook off Wang Wei's two fat hands, raised his leather shoe, and kicked Wang Wei in the buttocks.

"Go to hell!"

Bai Li rubbed the goosebumps on his arms and cursed irritably:

"That's disgusting."

"Now that you've let it go, hurry back home, take a shower, and get some sleep, you bastard!"

Wang Wei wasn't angry at all after being kicked; he just stood on the side of the road, clutching his backside and laughing so hard he couldn't straighten up.

He then hailed a taxi, humming a little tune as he got in and sped away.

Bai Li stood in the wind and silently complained.

Fortunately, I was bound to the Goddess Investment System.

If this were my investment system, judging from Wang Wei's disgustingly devoted look just now, I might actually get a reward of 100 points of devotion.

Just imagining that scene makes me feel like I'm shortening my lifespan.

Only Bai Li and Zhang Qian remained by the roadside.

Zhang Qian, wearing her little leather boots, took half a step forward and then wrapped her soft body around Bai Li's arm, tightly holding it with both hands.

"Big brother," Zhang Qian looked up at her exquisitely made-up face, "how did I do today?"

"Very good." Bai Li's tone was languid, and he didn't hold back his praise:

"You were very good, and you made me look good tonight."

Hearing the praise, Zhang Qian's eyes and brows lit up with joy.

She tiptoed, her voluptuous curves pressed against Bai Li, her voice revealing undisguised allure.

"Big brother did a great job today too!"

Zhang Qian bit her rosy lower lip, her watery eyes fixed intently on Bai Li:

"Especially the way he stood up for his brother and sent that slut straight to jail just now, that was incredibly cool."

After she finished speaking, she shyly covered her chest with her hands, her cheeks flushed with two lovely blushes.

"So..." Zhang Qian's voice was soft and slurred, both compliant and direct:

"I'd like to give my older brother some reward."

"Please feel free to make any requests, big brother. I can accept them without reservation."

Bai Li chuckled softly, his peach blossom eyes filled with a meaningful inquiry.

Instead of following Zhang Qian's movements, he stretched out his long arm and directly embraced her slender and supple waist.

Then, with a burst of strength, he lifted that soft and fiery body into his arms.

"Ah!" Zhang Qian exclaimed, instinctively wrapping her arms around Bai Li's neck, her two straight and slender legs swinging back and forth in mid-air.

Bai Li carried her and strode towards the Porsche Panamera parked by the roadside.

"Well, your reward isn't very generous."

Bai Li lowered his eyes, his gaze sweeping over the alluring curves of Zhang Qian's chest. He let out a soft snort, revealing a hint of cunning teasing.

"If you don't even have milky white snowflakes, you can't really test your officers."
