Chapter 147 Head-on Confrontation with the Big Boss
"Qi Tongwei, what are you doing here?"
Yuan Gang's condescending and aggressive tone made Qi Tongwei very unhappy.
What I do here is none of your business.
Yuan Gang was speechless, as if he'd swallowed a fly. "Qi Tongwei, can't you fucking speak properly?"
"I'm trying to talk to you nicely, you idiot!"
Enraged, Yuan Gang stepped forward and glared fiercely at Qi Tongwei. "Damn it, looks like I gave you too much face last time."
Qi Tongwei also stepped forward, and the two locked eyes, a conflict potentially erupting at any moment.
"Idiot, what's wrong, you want to hit me?"
Yuan Gang couldn't take it anymore and threw a vicious punch, yelling, "Fuck your mother!"
Qi Tongwei didn't hold back either. He tilted his head and dodged, delivering a heavy punch to Yuan Gang's face, followed by a kick to his chest, sending him flying several meters away.
"Kill him for me!"
Enraged, Yuan Gang spat out a mouthful of blood and bit his tongue until it bled.
Just as the bodyguards in suits were about to make a move, Cao Xinwei stopped them.
"Captain Qi, don't forget, you're a police officer. Hitting someone is knowingly breaking the law."
Qi Tongwei asked nonchalantly, "What should I call you?"
Cao Xinwei exuded confidence, a sense of superiority about him.
Qi Tongwei can now confirm that the person behind Yuan Gang is Cao Xinwei, because he seems calmer and smarter.
"Mr. Cao, you are a smart man, so I have to argue with you. Do you think Mr. Yuan's tone just now was pleasant to listen to?"
In Cao Xinwei's eyes, Qi Tongwei was not even qualified to talk to him. He did not think there was anything wrong with Yuan Gang's tone of voice; in fact, he was just superior.
"Captain Qi, I'll say it again: you're a police officer, and you're bound to encounter all sorts of difficult people. You can't be on edge every time, can you?"
"That's so well said!" Qi Tongwei couldn't help but want to applaud. "Mr. Cao, you've misunderstood. I've always been a kind and helpful person. If you don't believe me, just ask Ms. Zhou Lin."
Zhou Lin dared not look Cao Xinwei in the eye; that fear seemed to be etched into her mind.
Cao Xinwei's smile was sinister, and his eyes were a warning to Zhou Lin not to say anything reckless.
"Captain Qi, you probably don't know this, but Zhou Lin and I are good friends."
Qi Tongwei was a little surprised.
"Mr. Cao, I just noticed the marks on Ms. Zhou Lin's arm that look like she was whipped. Are you aware of this?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Lin nervously took a step back, her body trembling slightly.
Cao Xinwei's eyes became extremely terrifying, as if they wanted to devour people's hearts. He didn't expect that Qi Tongwei had discovered this. As long as Zhou Lin didn't say anything reckless, everything was under his control.
"Really? I just found out too. Zhou Lin, you're so disobedient. I told you to leave that man, but you wouldn't listen. Why bother? This time, I'm determined to stand up for you and keep that man away from you."
Zhou Lin's eyes were full of resentment. She wanted to tell Qi Tongwei the truth, but she didn't dare. Cao Xinwei's father was the vice mayor. Even though Qi Tongwei had the bureau chief backing him up, he was still a step behind.
Seeing Zhou Lin's hesitant expression, Qi Tongwei suddenly had a bold guess in his mind: Could it be that Zhou Lin was the woman that Shen Guoqing and Cao Xinwei were fighting over? Years later, Cao Xinwei, now powerful and wealthy, began to take revenge on Zhou Lin, and the injuries on Zhou Lin's body were inflicted by him?
Holy crap, this is a melodramatic soap opera full of love and hate.
"Mr. Cao, now that you mention it, I feel like that man might be talking about you."
Cao Xinwei almost lost his composure. Damn it, does Qi Tongwei have a dog's nose?
"Captain Qi, you have a vivid imagination. Why don't we ask the person involved?"
Zhou Lin looked at Cao Xinwei with fear in her eyes, then at Qi Tongwei. She still didn't dare to tell the truth, because it would be too easy for Cao Xinwei to kill her and her daughter.
She didn't speak, she just shook her head.
Cao Xinwei revealed a victorious smile. "Captain Qi, look, the person involved has denied it. You made baseless accusations against me; shouldn't you apologize?"
An apology is out of the question.
Qi Tongwei chuckled, "Mr. Cao, ever since I became a policeman, I've come to particularly like an old saying: 'If you don't want others to know, don't do it in the first place.' I'm passing this on to you because you're utterly unfit to be Zhou Lin's good friend."
Cao Xinwei's fists were hard. He hadn't felt the urge to hit anyone in a long time, except for Zhou Lin. Qi Tongwei was challenging his bottom line time and time again.
"Captain Qi, you should keep those words to yourself. You can leave now. I'll take care of Zhou Lin and her daughter."
Zhou Lin looked to Qi Tongwei for help. Her daughter was still in the ICU. She wasn't afraid of being humiliated, but she was worried that something might happen to her daughter.
“Mr. Cao, I’m the kind of person who loves to meddle in other people’s business, and once I start, I’ll see it through to the end. I will definitely catch the man who hit Ms. Zhou Lin. Anyone who dares to touch Ms. Zhou Lin and her daughter, I’ll shoot their dog’s head off.”
Cao Xinwei glared fiercely at Qi Tongwei, his anger barely contained. This Qi Tongwei was practically asking for death.
"Qi Tongwei, you son of a bitch, who do you think you are? You're just a lowly criminal investigation captain, not the Minister of Public Security!"
Yuan Gang jumped out. He wasn't as tolerant as Cao Xinwei. Of course, Cao Xinwei also had to maintain his image as an overseas returnee elite, so he couldn't just swear.
Qi Tongwei clenched his fist. "Looks like I didn't hit you hard enough, you idiot. You can still bark here like that."
"Qi Tongwei, you fucking dare to hit me again?"
Yuan Gang leaned in closer, but Qi Tongwei didn't hold back and slapped him hard across the face, making Yuan Gang see stars.
"I've never seen such a despicable request before. You all heard it; he asked me to hit him."
Qi Tongwei clapped his hands, his smile sly; killing someone meant also destroying their spirit.
Two bodyguards in suits quickly helped Yuan Gang up, and two others rushed over.
Qi Tongwei, who was looking for an outlet for his anger, made a swift and decisive move, knocking down two bodyguards in suits with a single punch and kick.
"Damn, there are two even more despicable ones!"
This action shocked everyone present.
Cao Xinwei knew Qi Tongwei was arrogant, but after seeing it with his own eyes, he realized that his feelings were not as shocking as reality.
Hitting a deputy mayor's nephew—that's such a niche phrase.
Zhou Lin was even more shocked. Qi Tongwei's retaliation earlier could be considered self-defense, but Yuan Gang's actions were clearly provocative, and Qi Tongwei had directly attacked first. She couldn't imagine how bold this man was. Perhaps he didn't know that Cao Xinwei's father was the vice mayor. Ignorance is bliss, and she couldn't help but feel a chill for him.
The remaining bodyguards in suits were still furious and wanted to make a move, but Qi Tongwei clenched his fists, looking like he was just warming up.
Cao Xinwei reached out and stopped the bodyguard in the suit. If he continued to fight, he would only lose face. Qi Tongwei was clearly a reckless scoundrel.
"Captain Qi, I see you still haven't remembered what I said. You're a police officer; how can you hit people like that?"
