More Than A Few Blessing

Chapter 32

In fact, as soon as Liang Guoming made his move, he had immediately regretted it. Although he had already previously greeted someone in the higher echelons, to make this much noise at the police station, moreover now that the President of Huading was also here as that youngster’s representative, it would be very troublesome for that person above if they didn’t handle this matter fairly.

Liang Guoming, who had to humble himself just now during his lunch with several other arrogant bosses, was already suppressing his anger from earlier. So as soon as he was provoked by Lu Chengyu’s words, he became angry as the wine fumed up to his head. Thus he acted faster than his brain could process, and the stool flew out like it did leading to Lu Chengyu’s face to be covered with blood. But once those reporters came out of nowhere, Liang Guoming had instantly sober up, and he knew in his heart that he was in trouble now.

The police reacted quickly and politely asked the several reporters to go back out. However, the two young girls, who were glaring at Liang Guoming, were still in the room.  After the policemen inquired about their intention, they found that they were witnesses to the earlier incident and had come to give their statements.

Before the two girls were able to open their mouths, Liang Guoming spoke first as he squeezed out a smile with embarrassment. “This… Mr. Lu, I have had too much wine today, I was confused. You shouldn’t have to lower yourself to my level. I’ll surely compensate for your injury. In this matter, I was wrong. As a bigger person, you are magnanimous, no need to lower yourself to the same level of an old fogey like me.”

Lu Chengyu originally only wanted to provoke Liang Guoming to scold him at the police station and didn’t expect that the man would actually make such a large commotion like this. But when Liang Guoming came closer towards him, he could smell the remaining scent of food and wine on the other’s body. It seemed that the other had come straight from a banquet in a hurry.

Recalling that Liang Shi Corporation was having difficulty getting back up after their fall due to the recent affair, Liang Guoming must have been running all over the place, flattering those in power. Yet his own good son still spared no effort to give him trouble, really such a good representative of a son pitting a father – surely even the Heavens would feel touched. Having heard Liang Guoming’s words, Lu Chengyu knew that the other side was finally sober and wanted to suppress this incident. He deliberately put on an appearance of having been frightened and took a step back, then covered his nose, lowered his head, and didn’t speak as if he had been scared silly by the other party.

The two girls thought scornfully: Wasn’t this just relying on being old to sell old [1], forcing Xiao Yu to forgive his arrogant behavior?

[1] 倚老卖老 [yǐ lǎo mài lǎo]: taking advantage of one’s seniority; capitalize on being advanced in age;

“Relying on being old to sell old… Shameless!” A girl murmured, but the room full of policemen seemed to not have heard, and no one came out to stop her behavior.

The officers in the room scurried to fetch Lu Chengyu water and to hand him a towel, but the anger on their faces couldn’t be concealed. Although they were merely a very small police station, someone had dared to rampantly assault someone else in front of them! Moreover, reporters have captured the incident! It was doomed for this matter to be unable to end easily. Furthermore, if this wasn’t done well, all of them would suffer.

When the bureau chief heard that Liang Guoming had assaulted someone in the police station and that this matter was even witnessed by reporters, his breathing almost stopped. He rushed to the reception room and looked at several reporters invited there by his colleagues, then asked with a smile, “Didn’t everyone here say that they were witnesses? Then why were you guys still carrying filming equipment? This isn’t quite in accordance with the law…”
