Power and Wealth Chapter 183

Chapter 183 – The pathetic mother and daughter

Shangpin Road.

Dong Xuebing ignored the driver, who was still shouting in pain on the floor and went over to help Yu Meixia and Yu Qianqian pack their things. As they were about to leave, someone alighted from the rear passenger seat of the Audi. He is around 30 years old, had a flat nose and thin brows. He looks like he is holding a high management position.

“You want to escape after hitting people?” Zhao Yan looked at them coldly. “All of you are not allowed to leave today!”

Yu Meixia panicked and held her daughter close to her.

Dong Xuebing looked at him. “You ordered your driver to abduct women along the streets, and you are still behaving like you are right? You are not blind and should have seen what happened. I am not the one hitting your driver. It is your driver who tried to hit me first and I am only defending myself. Haha, I still have not pursued your responsibility and you are trying to frame me? Fine. I want to see how you are going to stop us from leaving?!”

The crowd shouted. “He is only defending himself. That man deserves it!”

“That’s right. All of us saw it is that driver who tried to hit that young man first!”

Zhao Yan’s face changed and stared at Dong Xuebing and Yu Meixia. “Fine! You all are asking for it!” He was holding on to his phone and should have made some calls when he was in the Audi.

“Hmph!” Dong Xuebing turned and said. “Sister, let’s go. I will send you back.”

Yu Meixia looked at Dong Xuebing with teary eyes. “Sorry. I had caused trouble for you.”

Dong Xuebing replied nonchalantly. “This is nothing. Stop crying. Everything will be fine.”

Suddenly, there was a police siren, and a flashing police car came to a screeching stop near the crowd. The two officers alighted from the police car and start to disperse the crowd. “Go away! Go away!” They walked quickly to Zhao Yan and from their expressions, they know each other. “Manager Zhao, what’s wrong?”

The crowd immediately knew what was going on, and some kindhearted passerby asked Dong Xuebing to run away.

Yu Meixia turns pale and quickly hugged her daughter, before telling Dong Xuebing. “You… better, go now.”

Dong Xuebing replied. “Why? The police are here already. Let’s see how they are going to settle this!”

Yu Meixia panics. “They are on the same side. They… they… it is disadvantageous to you.”

Zhao Yan points to his driver, who was still on the floor. “My driver saw someone begging along the streets. He went over to help them and was beaten up by that guy. What is wrong with the security in Tai Yan County? Ah?”

The policemen’s face changed. “Where is that guy?”

Zhao Yan points to Dong Xuebing. “That’s him. Arrest him immediately!”

“Don’t worry, Manager Zhao. We will arrest the culprit.” One officer said and took out his handcuffs as he walks towards the crowd.

Some passerby said. “Why didn’t you ask around before arresting people? I was there the whole time, and it was that driver who hit that man first!”

Someone added. “That’s right. That driver is trying to abduct women on the streets! The mother and daughter refuse to follow him and he tried to grab them!”

“I also saw it! If you are going to arrest someone, you should arrest that Audi driver!”

The two police officers ignored the crowd and squeeze past them with their handcuffs.

Yu Qianqian was crying as she looked at Dong Xuebing. “Brother, you…”

Dong Xuebing patted her head. “Everything is fine. Don’t worry.” He turned towards the police and smiled coldly. He extended both his hands and said. “Come, hurry up and cuff me.”

Yu Meixia, Zhao Yan, and the crowd were shocked. Is this man crazy? He is asking the officers to cuff him?

The two officers laughed. They had met arrogant people, but have never met someone as arrogant as this young man in front of them. You had hit Mr. Zhao’s driver and think we don’t dare to arrest you? But as the officers went nearer and saw the man’s face under the dim lights, they were stunned.

Dong Xuebing extended his hands. “Hurry up! Didn’t you say you want to arrest me?”

The two officers were sweating profusely. Damn! Arrest you?! Who dares to cuff you?!

Seeing the two officers standing there in stunned, Dong Xuebing points at them and starts scolding. “Did you all forget all the laws you learned? Ah? Don’t you need to find out what happened after arriving at the scene first?! You two don’t even find out what had happened, and you want to arrest me? You two are supposed to be Public Security officers, and it is your job to serve the public! You don’t listen to the people! Do you two still want to wear this uniform?!”

Everyone looks at Dong Xuebing in shock. Who is this person?

Zhao Yan was stunned as he realized something was not right.

One of the officers wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Chief Dong, you are right. We will investigate the incident immediately.”

The other officer cursed in his heart. Mr. Zhao’s driver tried to hit Chief Xiao Dong? Serve him right for getting beaten up by Chief Dong!

Chief Dong???

The newly posted Deputy Bureau Chief?!

Zhao Yan looked at Dong Xuebing.

Yu Meixia, her daughter, and the rest of the crowd took a deep breath. Many of them had heard that there is a Deputy Bureau Chief who is very young. But no one expects him to be this young!!

Yu Meixia took a step back and asked. “You… You are the Public Security Bureau Chief?”

Dong Xuebing replied. “Deputy Chief. Don’t worry. Now the police have arrived and just tell them what happened earlier.”

After the two officers found out what happened, they looked at each other. Mr. Zhao is the one who caused this incident, but Chief Dong is too ruthless in breaking that driver’s leg. Eh? Mr. Zhao’s driver is a former soldier and Chief Dong is just a fresh graduate from a regular university. How did Chief Dong beat up the driver?

Zhao Yan looked at them from a distance and did not offer any explanation.

The police officers looked at Zhao Yan and whispered to Dong Xuebing. “Chief Dong, that is Zhao Yan, Manager Zhao.”

Dong Xuebing looked at the officer and thought to himself. Who cares if he is a manager or the top management of some companies? He is also not the boss, and why do I need to care what his name is?

The officer sense that Dong Xuebing did not get what he meant and explained. “He is the son of Chief Zhao from our bureau.”

Dong Xuebing paused for a second. Chief Zhao? The Deputy Chief who is very close with Hu Yiguo? The one who is said to be lecherous? No wonder! Like father like son! Dong Xuebing was disgusted by Hu Yiguo and his faction!

“You two…” Dong Xuebing does not intend to give anyone face. “Remain behind and give them a lecture on how to behave in public!”

The two officers dare not to reject Dong Xuebing and nodded.

Zhao Yan gritted his teeth but did not say a word. He knew his father’s faction had clashed with this newly posted Deputy Chief Dong, and he does not want to create more trouble for his father.

After settling all the problems, Dong Xuebing said to the mother and daughter. “Sis, little girl, let’s go. I will send you all back.”

After boarding the Buicks MPV, Yu Qianqian looks around the interior of the car curiously and starts touching the vehicle.

Yu Meixia got a fright and quickly stop her daughter. “Qianqian, don’t dirty Chief Dong’s car.” Yu Qianqian nodded and leaned against her mother. Yu Meixia said cautiously: “Dong… Chief Dong… thank you for helping us.”

Dong Xuebing laughed. “It’s nothing. Where are you all staying?”

A tear fell from Yu Meixia’s eye. “We… don’t have a home. We had sold everything.”

“Then, where do I send you to?”

“There is a small hotel near the edge of the town. We are living there.”

Dong Xuebing nodded and starts driving. “I still don’t know your names.”

Yu Meixia: “My name is Yu Meixia, and this is my daughter, Yu Qianqian.”

Both had the same surname? This is not uncommon in China as many people from the same village have the same surname but were not relatives. “Your husband… do you mind telling me a bit more? How much do you owe?” Yu Meixia and her daughter’s plight are very similar to Dong Xuebing a few years back. Dong Xuebing really wants to help them.

Yu Qianqian starts crying again when she heard this.

Yu Meixia patted her daughter, and her tears start flowing. “My husband had borrowed money to gamble and lost everything. After that…… he passed away in the county town. The creditors showed up and force us to sell off our land and house.” Yu Meixia cried louder. “We still owe them more than 1 million RMB. I will not be able to pay them for the rest of my life.”

Yu Qianqian cried. “Mum…”

So much money? Dong Xuebing does not have so much money to help them. His auction company also does not have spare cash to help them.

Yu Meixia and Yu Qianqian alighted after they arrived at the hotel outside of town. But Dong Xuebing noticed the mother and daughter did not enter the hotel. Instead, they walked to the back of the hotel. Dong Xuebing was surprised and followed them to see what was happening. He saw Yu Meixia unfolding a piece of cardboard and lay it on the floor.

Dong Xuebing frowned. “You all are going to sleep on the streets?”

Yu Meixia’s eyes turned red and nodded. She was holding to the money she got from begging in her hands. “This money is for Qianqian’s school fees. I want to let her finish her studies.”

Dong Xuebing sighed and took out all the remaining money from his wallet. “It is not safe for you two to sleep here. Use this money to book a room in the hotel. Also, this is my number. Call me if you need help.” Dong Xuebing left with a heavy heart after he saw the mother and daughter booked a room in the hotel.
