Leaving Hongxing Automobile City was around 5 p.m., and the streets in Jinling District were getting busier. Although Ye Xiao was driving a Ferrari, he wasn't the type to show off, and he had nothing particular to do at the moment, so he just drove leisurely.

He could have sped through the green light ahead with his skills without breaking any traffic rules, but he ended up slowly stopping at the crosswalk just as the light turned from green to yellow.

Traffic regulations state that you won't be fined for crossing during a yellow light, but since there was no emergency, why rush through it? Clearly, there was no need!

Casually listening to an old-fashioned Cantonese opera and surprisingly nodding his head to the beat, everything was peaceful until a phone rang!

Ye Xiao's cell phone was in Minghai City and he hadn't brought it with him. The phone, originally a gift from Song Jiaqian, was returned to her. When Ye Xiao gave it back, Song Jiaqian cried, but he told her that when he returned to Minghai City, he would reclaim it and made her promise not to damage or lose it.

Although Ye Xiao looked serious, it warmed Song Jiaqian's heart.

So, Ye Xiao didn't have a phone on him, but why was there a phone ringing in the car?

Looking around, he noticed a phone in the back seat, a sophisticated Samsung Note4.

Picking it up, he saw 'Coco' displayed on the screen.

Holding the phone, Ye Xiao felt puzzled. Whose phone was this? And who was 'Coco'?

Just then, a sedan behind him honked angrily in protest!

What's the matter?

Ye Xiao looked back to see many drivers sticking their heads out to look forward; following their gaze, he realized the light was now green with only 3 seconds left before turning yellow, meaning he had unwittingly obstructed traffic for over twenty seconds?

Hastily, he drove off, while those behind him, still cluelessly honking, didn't realize he had moved.

By the time they reacted, the light had turned yellow, then red, making Ye Xiao the only one to get through.

Ye Xiao's mind was now on the phone.

Since it wasn't his, he hesitated for a moment before putting it aside, un-answered.

But just as the ringing stopped, within five seconds, the phone rang again.

Driving with one hand, he picked up the phone again to see 'Coco' on screen.

It was him again!

Ye Xiao threw the phone aside once more.

A call once or twice could be dismissed, but after four or five persistent rings, Ye Xiao wasn't thinking as simply.

Could this be something urgent? Why the constant calling? Whose phone was this? Could it belong to Xia Mingyue? Was this person named Coco trying to reach the phone's owner about something important? If so, ignoring the calls could potentially mean missing out on something critical.

So, when the ringtone went off for the sixth or seventh time, Ye Xiao decisively answered.

"Hello, good evening," Ye Xiao greeted the caller with utmost politeness.

The person on the other end seemed taken aback by Ye Xiao's voice and then asked suspiciously and defensively, "Who are you? Why do you have Sister Mingyue's phone?"

Sister Mingyue's phone?

Clearly, Xia Mingyue was the owner of the phone.

Ye Xiao quickly explained, "I am Mr. Xia's driver. May I ask if you have any business with Mr. Xia? His phone was left in the car."

"Oh?" The girl named Coco asked even more curiously, "Are you sure you're Sister Mingyue's driver? My Sister Mingyue can drive, and she used to drive herself, I've never heard of her having a driver. Who are you really? Did you steal Sister Mingyue's phone? Hmph, I'm telling you, if you don't return her phone, I'm calling the police right now. Once you're in the Guard Bureau, we'll see if you're still so nonchalant!"

The voice on the phone was undoubtedly a girl's, and she was no pushover.

Ye Xiao was now irritated at being suspected of theft, as he was a man of integrity. Angrily, he retorted, "Go ahead and call the police if you want. I have nothing to hide!"

He then hung up the phone.

Casting the phone aside, Ye Xiao was significantly annoyed. As a model young man of the new century, being mistaken for a thief was outrageous. He prided himself on his responsible work ethic and didn't hesitate to maintain order at the 4S shop, taking action when necessary. How could someone who contributed positively to society be falsely accused as a thief? Was there no justice?

While Ye Xiao was fuming with rage, the phone rang again.

Picking it up, it was Coco calling once more. He immediately hung up.

"Do I still have to put up with phone harassment?" Ye Xiao wasn't going to stand for this!

As soon as Ye Xiao hung up the phone, it rang again!

Once more, it was from Coco.

By this time, it was the busy end of the workday, and the streets were getting more and more crowded. Ye Xiao didn't dare to drive fast. If his cell phone kept ringing like this, it would obviously be distracting while driving. After some thought, Ye Xiao answered the call.

"What do you want now?" Ye Xiao's tone was anything but friendly.

The girl named Coco didn't seem to get angry at Ye Xiao's words. Instead, she cheerily said, "Don't be mad. Okay, you are Sister Mingyue's driver, right? So are you driving Sister Mingyue's car right now?"

"Yes," said Ye Xiao.

"Are you currently on Traffic Road?" Coco's voice was unnervingly pleasant.

Ye Xiao looked up, and sure enough, he saw a road sign indicating that the road he was on was indeed Traffic Road.

"Yes, I'm on Traffic Road," Ye Xiao replied.

"Alright, drive safely, no rush, goodbye!" With that, Coco hung up.

Ye Xiao glanced at his phone that had just been disconnected and was immediately baffled. Was this girl right in the head? Why was she asking him these questions? And how did she know he was on Traffic Road?

Ye Xiao racked his brain but couldn't work out what was going on. Since he couldn't figure it out, he decided not to think about it anymore and just continued driving slowly.

The roads were congested with people and vehicles, so Ye Xiao kept his speed around thirty or forty miles per hour. He also couldn't help but wryly smile to himself. While it's true that the streets in the state capital were much wider than those in smaller cities, the traffic was also much heavier.

While Ye Xiao continued to move forward, he noticed up ahead at an intersection the flashing red and blue lights—the warning beacons of a police car.

"I wonder which idiot is getting caught by the cops now," Ye Xiao mumbled to himself, while the music inside the car played on unfazed by the recent call from Coco.

He followed the line of traffic forward and soon reached the intersection. As Ye Xiao drove nearer the intersection, he saw several police officers approaching from the other side—seven or eight of them, in fact.

Ye Xiao considered the possibility that a dangerous felon was behind or if a drug lord was supposed to pass through here, leading the officers to come and nab them.

Ye Xiao now genuinely felt like stopping the car and watching the excitement.

However, just as he pulled the Ferrari closer to the officers, they immediately stepped forward to intercept his vehicle.

Ye Xiao was puzzled at being pulled over. Had the police made a mistake? Or did they have some other motive for stopping his car, perhaps to halt the traffic behind?

But before Ye Xiao could finish his thoughts, a square-faced officer approached his window, and Ye Xiao cooperated by rolling it down.

"What's the matter?" Ye Xiao asked the officer, puzzled.

Chen Jianguo stared at Ye Xiao and felt anger rising. He was almost amused at the thought—what's wrong with these thieves nowadays, acting so convincingly? And had they not been informed beforehand, he might have believed Ye Xiao was innocent.

"Step out of the car and show me your ID," Chen Jianguo said as his colleagues drew closer.

ID?

Ye Xiao felt even more bewildered. It was the first time he'd heard of being asked for an identification card rather than a driving license while driving.

"Brother, I didn't bring my identification card. Can a driving license suffice?" Ye Xiao said with a chuckle.

Hearing Ye Xiao's response, Chen Jianguo gave a cold laugh and said, "Any form of identification will do, but first, get out of the car!"

Ye Xiao was quite cooperative. After all, he believed he hadn't committed any crimes, so the police shouldn't have arrested the wrong person, and he did have his driving license, which could prove his identity!

However, the moment Ye Xiao got out and handed his driving license to Chen Jianguo, three or four officers immediately came over and pinned him down!

Ye Xiao, now restrained, initially wanted to resist, but it was broad daylight, and any attempt to fight back might result in an accusation of assaulting an officer.

So, Ye Xiao raised his voice and said, "Brother, what's going on? I haven't done anything wrong."

"Who's your brother? Take him away!" Chen Jianguo said sternly.

Many onlookers watched with curiosity as Ye Xiao was led away, clearly wondering what such a person could have done to warrant arrest by so many police officers.
