Li Changfeng was extremely angry. He had always felt that he owed Lin Hai. Now that he was the deputy director of the police station, it was unacceptable to him that his own subordinates had arrested his big brother. How could he not be furious?

Zhang Shenxu wore an indifferent expression and spoke lightly, "Director Li, Lin Hai is suspected of intentional assault, and the victim is a foreigner. We must provide the public with an explanation. Are you trying to protect a criminal?"

Li Changfeng stared coldly at Zhang Shenxu's calm face. He knew that although Zhang Shenxu had only been in Huadu for a few days, he had powerful connections and backing. Not to mention himself, even Director Xiao would have to be very polite in his presence.

"Zhang, it's not good for young people to be too impulsive," Li Changjiang said meaningfully, already deciding in his heart that he could never allow Lin Hai to be wronged.

However, Zhang Shenxu didn't take it seriously. Instead, he smiled at Li Changfeng and said ambiguously, "Director Li, the young master doesn't think so. Do you think you can stand against the young master and the RX organization?"

Li Changfeng's face changed.

"The RX organization, the young master, he knows them well. Strictly speaking, he is now one of the young master's people. Behind the young master, there's a family and the RX organization intertwined like a massive force, absolutely beyond his means to contend with."

Li Changfeng's thoughts raced and he blurted out, "Did you arrest Lin Hai on the young master's orders?"

Zhang Shenxu smiled triumphantly, not taking Li Changfeng seriously at all and boasted, "Director Li, I know you and Lin Hai are comrades-in-arms. This matter is out of your hands."

"Get out," said Li Changfeng after getting a clear answer, waving his hand. He very much disliked this Zhang Shenxu, yet he was powerless against him since behind him stood the young master.

"Li Changfeng, you better watch yourself," Zhang Shenxu huffed.

Only after Zhang Shenxu left did Li Changfeng, with a face red from anger, look exceedingly ugly. He slammed his fist on the desk and gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with unwillingness, yet helpless.

After a brief bout of rage, Li Changfeng calmed down, thought for a moment, took out a cellphone from the safe, and dialed Ouyang Xiaoya's number.

"President Ouyang, I can't handle this matter. It's up to you now. You must help Brother Hai, he is definitely not a bad person," Li Changfeng took a deep breath and then hung up the phone.

Ouyang Xiaoya stood in front of the office's floor-to-ceiling window, frowning. She also knew about the comradeship between Li Changfeng and Lin Hai, and had hoped for Li Changfeng's help. But now, [...]

Ouyang Xiaoya picked up the office phone and said, "Call Li Wannian to my office."

Soon, Li Wannian stood respectfully in front of Ouyang Xiaoya, waiting for instructions.

"Wannian, notify the company's backup legal team to prepare for a lawsuit," Ouyang Xiaoya commanded unequivocally.

Li Wannian was startled and asked in surprise, "President, activating the backup legal team will cost at least three million in legal fees. What exactly is the matter?"

Ouyang Xiaoya massaged her temples, obviously also a bit troubled, but still revealed, "Lin Hai has gotten into some trouble. I suspect someone is plotting behind the scenes."

Li Wannian was shocked and could hardly believe it, but he was certain that Lin Hai indeed had a close relationship with the CEO. Now that Lin Hai was in trouble, the CEO was willing to activate the company's costly backup legal team, all of whom were highly skilled legal professionals, each employment costing at least three million in fees.

"Wannian understands, CEO rest assured, once the legal team exerts pressure, presumably the police will not dare go too far," Li Wannian said, then bowed respectfully to Ouyang Xiaoya before leaving to carry out the orders.

Ouyang Xiaoya rubbed her temples, feeling somewhat irritated and helplessly muttering, "Lin Hai, Lin Hai, this time, even deducting your lifetime wages won't cover the losses you've caused me."

...

After leaving Li Changfeng's office, Zhang Shenxu took out his phone and dialed a number, reporting to the person on the other end, "Young master, your brilliant plan worked. Li Changfeng has compromised. Lin Hai is now detained in the detention center. I'll instruct someone to take special care of him in a while."

"Very good."

The phone hung up after those two words.

Zhang Shenxu's lips curled into a cold smile, thinking, "Lin Hai, since you dared to compete with me for a woman, I'll make sure you're utterly ruined."

After notifying Ouyang Xiaoya, Li Changfeng immediately rushed to the detention center.

Lin Hai, comfortably enjoying the Supreme Emperor treatment in the cell, was puffily blowing smoke rings, humming contentedly through his nose.

"New guy, stand up for me."

Outside, the guard police glared at Lin Hai and shouted loudly.

Lin Hai, with his eyes half-closed, looked teasingly at the police officer: "Officer, I'm in poor health. What if I suddenly die when I stand up? Would you take responsibility?"

"You're asking for it!" The police burst into anger, surprised that the newcomer was so arrogant.

"Who are you saying is asking for death?" A firm and steady voice rang out.

The police furrowed his brows and turned around, seeing who it was, he immediately paled, stammering: "Director Li, Director Zhang, why are you here?"

Li Changfeng snorted coldly: "If I hadn't come, you might have killed a prisoner already."

The junior officer immediately broke out in a cold sweat on his back, trembling, not daring to utter a sound, and hurriedly shouted into the cell: "Everyone stand up, the leaders are here."

Li Changfeng waved his hand and said indifferently: "No need."

Seeing Lin Hai safe and sound, seemingly doing well in the cell, Li Changfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Director Zhang at this moment glared at the junior officer: "Aren't you opening the door?Director Li is conducting an inspection!"

The junior officer, no longer daring to be arrogant, hurriedly took out a bunch of keys and unlocked the cell door.

The prisoners in the cell immediately all stood up on the ground; although they were arrogant, they knew that during a high-level leader's inspection, they had to behave well, or else they'd be in big trouble.

Only Lin Hai, still lazily leaning against the wall.

Some mindful prisoners wanted to remind Lin Hai, but realizing the high-level leader had already entered, could only internally pray that he wouldn't get angry.

Li Changfeng walked in, seeing Lin Hai safe and sound, then asked with concern: "Brother Hai, have they not mistreated you?"

The prisoners were stunned for a moment, then utterly shocked.

Director Li actually addressed the new boss with a "Brother"!

Lin Hai opened his eyes, saw it was Li Changfeng, and smiled: "Hey, Li is here, have a seat."

The prisoners were shocked again, the new boss actually called Director Li 'Li', and in such a casual manner.

"You guys, quickly make some tea for Li." Lin Hai ordered the prisoners, acting as if he was the one in charge.

"Brother Hai, no need to bother, just tell me whatever you need here." Li Changfeng asked with utmost concern.

The prisoners were shocked once again, thinking: "sh*t, the new boss actually has such a powerful background, even the head of the police station, Director Li, has to be so courteous and ingratiating."

"I heard the detainment center's Imperial Physician is skilled. Just now, that officer shouted at me so loudly it scared me; I feel a bit uncomfortable in my heart. How about you give the nod for me to see the doctor?" Lin Hai casually babbled.

Hearing this, that junior policeman's face turned green.

"Director Zhang, I'll leave this matter to you," Li Changfeng said officially, without turning his head.

"Understood, Director Zhang. I'll accompany Brother Lin to see the doctor right away", Director Zhang nodded and bowed, curious in his heart about what the relationship between this new prisoner and Director Li was.

The other prisoners looked enviously at Lin Hai, one prisoner muttered enviously: "Tsk tsk, I heard the jail's doctor is a top-notch beauty, the boss is really lucky."
