Li Hao smiled helplessly. Ye Qian had been like this since they were children, always undaunted, but Li Hao understood perfectly that this did not mean that Ye Qian was being stupid, in his view Ye Qian was a genius. He remembered that even after Ye Qian dropped out of school, whenever Li Hao had difficult homework, Ye Qian only had to glance at it before telling him the answer. Li Hao knew that if Ye Qian had graduated back then, his accomplishments right now would be much greater than his own.
“Erge, how could you get yourself into such big trouble.” Li Hao said worriedly.
Ye Qian smiled indifferently, “Sandi, don't worry, nothing will happen to me. I didn't do it, so there's nothing to be afraid of.”
“Do you think that just because you say you didn't do it everything will be alright? Do you know how difficult your situation is right now? Don't you know how worried we are about you?” When w.a.n.g Yu thought about how worried she was over this scoundrel she was very angry. She was the precious daughter of the deputy secretary, she had a bright future in the police department, how could she let herself fret over this rogue?
Li Hao stared blankly in surprise when he heard w.a.n.g Yu's emotionally charged words. He looked at w.a.n.g Yu, then looked at Ye Qian, and a cryptic smile formed on his face, he had more or less guessed what was going on between the two of them. Ye Qian was unexpectedly quite surprised, didn't this girl hate him? She was already acting very strangely last night, now she was still being weird today. Could it really be that he was really way too charming that even this little girl couldn't help but be attracted to him, and now she was prostrating herself at his elegant and handsome self?
When w.a.n.g Yu saw the effect her words had on Ye Qian and Li Hao she immediately became embarra.s.sed. She panicked inwardly and felt her heart beating wildly in her chest as she thought to herself, “Stupid, are you really lovestruck now that you'd say such words in front of other people.”
Ye Qian couldn't fail to express his grat.i.tude over her good intentions. “I know, but I don't know how to repay you. Should I give my heart to you, how about that?”
w.a.n.g Yu glared at Ye Qian vehemently and didn't speak.
Li Hao turned around and spoke to Hu Yue, “I'll take this person with me now. I'll send somebody over to handle the transfer procedures later. Any questions?” Even though his words sounded like he was consulting with Hu Yue, his tone did not sound like it.
Hu Yue didn't dare to talk back. He wanted Ye Qian out of the place like he was a hot potato or else this guy would drag him down.
Li Hao nodded and called Ye Qian, then they left the police station together. He turned to Yang Wei and Sun Ji Sheng and gave them a smile, not saying anything. That smile was filled with evil and made Yang Weiand Sun Ji Sheng shudder.
Everybody escorted Ye Qian and Li Hao out. When they saw them get into the car and depart, they went back into the police station. Only w.a.n.g Yuremained standing on the entrance, she did not say anything as she watched Ye Qian's retreating back; it was like she was a wife from ancient times sending her husband off to war.
“Erge, how are you acquainted with w.a.n.g Yu? I think she likes you.” Li Hao couldn't help asking him while they were on their way.
“The first time was when I helped her capture a thief. The second time was when she arrested me over the situation with Tyc.o.o.n Zeng. Now is the third time, I was also arrested by her. It must be that I wronged her in my previous life, or else why is it that whenever I see her nothing good ever happens.” Ye Qian replied with a smile.
Li Hao laughed and replied, “Erge, I really think this little girl likes you. I've known Xiao Yu for a long time and I've never seen her act like that for a guy, except for you”
“Nah, she and I are like sky's lightning and the earth's volcano, we can never meet. But what about you? You two seemed to be really familiar with each other.” Ye Qian asked.
Li Hao nodded, “Xiao Yu's father is my patron. If it weren't for him I wouldn't be where I am today. I'm often in their house so over time I got to know Xiao Yu quite well.”
“Oh? That girl has an awesome dad?” Ye Qian asked with curiosity. This totally came to him as a surprise. It turned out w.a.n.g Yu wasn't like the other children of officials who wielded the authority of their parents around to get their way. Ye Qian suddenly had an even better opinion of her.
“Her father is Deputy Secretary w.a.n.g. You just got back so you don't know.” Li Hao replied.
Ye Qian stared at him in surprise. He didn't know w.a.n.g Ping was politically connected to Li Hao. If he knew he would have just given the doc.u.ments to him to give to w.a.n.g Ping. Wouldn't that have been a help to Li Hao. “That's really unexpected.” Ye Qian replied. After a pause, he suddenly asked, “Sandi, what day is today?”
“It's Sunday. Why?” Li Hao replied and looked at Ye Qian in surprise.
Ye Qian laughed and replied, “It seems I have a ball to attend tonight.”
“Erge, please don't get mad at me for saying this, but you're still a murder suspect. Even though I'm sure you didn't do it, the case has been made and you can't leave the police station until the case is settled. When Deputy Secretary w.a.n.g called me today to discuss your case, he told me he believes you were framed, but right now we don't have any proof. Erge, do you know who you could have provoked? Who could it be that framed you?” Li Hao said. On one side was his cherished erge that he looked up to since he was young, on the other side was the possibility of being dragged into a political struggle, Li Hao was in a difficult situation.
Ye Qian smiled indifferently and patted Li Hao on the shoulders, “I understand, but big bro wants to ask you something. If that person really was killed by me, what would you do? Would you maintain the law, as firm as the mountain? Or would comrades.h.i.+p come before anything else?”
After a pause, Li Hao replied, “Erge, if you were actually the murderer, I would do everything in my power to save you. But if I were to let you leave the police station right now, though, I'm afraid that not only would I be unable to save you, I probably wouldn't be able to settle everything.”
Ye Qian laughed and replied, “Aren't you worried about ruining your political career?”
“If it weren't for erge, I wouldn't be where I am today. My political career is not as important as my erge in my eyes.” Li Hao replied resolutely.
“Don't say that. You have what you have now because of your own hard work, it has nothing at all to do with me. However, your word is enough for me. Don't worry, erge will never ever let you come to harm. But whether or not it's leaving the police station in an upright and just manner, or escaping it, it's all very easy.” Ye Qian said while patting Li Hao on the shoulder.
