"I won't let anything happen to him!" Shu Ya said with a stern face, her tone was firm, as if she was stating her position, yet it also sounded like a declaration of sovereignty.
Seeing this, Ruo Lan also revealed a bitter smile. Shu Ya could still use her financial power to help Hao Jian, but she felt powerless to do anything.
Not long after Hao Jian had left, Yu Ou came knocking on the door looking for him.
When Shu Ya opened the door, she saw Yu Ou standing at the entrance.
"You are," Shu Ya looked at Yu Ou with confusion because she didn't recognize this person.
"Oh, my name is Yu Ou, I'm Hao Jian's good buddy. You must be his wife, right? You're really beautiful," Yu Ou said with a smile, thinking to himself that it was just like Hao Jian—not only capable himself but also having such a beautiful wife.
"Oh, not at all," Shu Ya said shyly, waving her hand dismissively. What woman doesn't like to be called beautiful? Naturally, Shu Ya was no exception.
At that moment, Shu Ya thought: I never expected Hao Jian, despite his unassuming appearance, to have a brother of such high taste.
"Um, is Hao Jian here? He promised to treat my grandfather," Yu Ou asked. Since Hao Jian had given him his home address, he had come directly to look for him.
"Hao Jian? He can treat illnesses?" Shu Ya was surprised. She never knew that Hao Jian had medical skills, and he had never mentioned it to her.
"You didn't know? Even the Chinese Medicine Hospital paid him a high fee of half a million for a single lecture," Yu Ou said just as puzzled. Since Shu Ya was his fiancée, why would Hao Jian keep it a secret from her?
"Damn it," Shu Ya cursed under her breath. That bastard has been keeping quite a few things from her, and it seemed she really needed to corner that bastard sometime and interrogate him thoroughly.
"Huh?" Yu Ou was a bit stunned; he didn't expect Shu Ya to swear in front of him.
"He's been taken away by the police," Shu Ya said with a wry smile.
"Taken by the police? When did that happen?" Yu Ou's expression suddenly darkened.
"Just a moment ago, a few minutes before you arrived," Shu Ya answered, "I'm about to get dressed and go to the police station to get him out."
"It must have been that bastard Sun Renyao's doing. I've always heard that the kid was up to no good. Damn it, I should have finished him off that day at the jewelry store!" Yu Ou said angrily.
After leaving the jewelry store that day, he had been worried that Sun Renyao would harm Hao Jian, so he had someone tail Sun Renyao. Sure enough, he found out that Sun Renyao had tried to use his connections to retaliate against Hao Jian on the very night he was beaten up.
He was planning to tell Hao Jian about this today, never expecting Sun Renyao to act so quickly.
"No matter who's behind this, what we need to do now is first get him out of the police station. I can tell those people are trouble and will probably harm him," Shu Ya said, starting to feel afraid upon hearing Yu Ou's words.
As Yu Ou spoke, he began to dial his grandfather's number. Sun Renyao dared to mess with his brother—how could he tolerate that?
The one who gave the order to arrest Hao Jian was, of course, not Sun Renyao, but he was indeed related to the matter.
The reason was simple: he was acquainted with Chen Jingcheng and Yin Donghan. Actually, with his pretty-boy status, he truly had no right to be in their circle, but who could blame him for having a rich girlfriend?
Sun Renyao got to know Xiao Meimei and Chen Jingcheng through mutual acquaintances, and soon the three of them, finding they were of like minds, became confidants. After Sun Renyao was beaten by Hao Jian, he immediately sought the help of Chen Jingcheng and Yin Donghan, and the three quickly agreed to team up against Hao Jian.
At this time, Sun Renyao had also received a notification from Chen Jingcheng and was hurrying to the Xicheng District police station.
Sun Renyao's face was lit up with excitement because Hao Jian had finally gotten into trouble, and he could at last take his revenge on Hao Jian.
The memory of the day Hao Jian publicly humiliated him made Sun Renyao so angry that he couldn't sleep all night, and today he would have his vengeance, so he was extremely happy now.
"Sun Renyao, let's just let bygones be bygones, after all, we were classmates," Xiao Meimei said with some hesitation.
"Let it go? Have you forgotten how he humiliated us back then? If I don't cripple him this time, then I am not Sun Renyao!" Sun Renyao said fiercely.
His face was a mix of blue and purple at the moment, obviously having been beaten quite badly at the police station. If it weren't for Chen Jingcheng getting him out, he reckoned he would still be stuck there—how could he not seek revenge?
"But you can't really blame him for that, we were too arrogant before," Xiao Meimei sighed, clearly not forgetting the disdainful look Hao Jian had given her. She didn't want to be looked down upon by Hao Jian anymore; that gaze was truly too irritating.
"Why do I feel like you're always speaking up for him? Who is really your boyfriend? Do you still have feelings for him?" Sun Renyao said angrily as he looked at Xiao Meimei.
"I'm not speaking for him, I just think we don't need to be at each other's throats over a classmate. Besides, I don't think you can necessarily do anything to him," Xiao Meimei responded, displeased by Sun Renyao's accusation.
Meimei sighed. Reignite the old flame? She'd like to, but does Hao Jian even take her seriously?
Upon hearing Xiao Meimei's words, Sun Renyao immediately bristled:
"I can't touch him? What kind of joke is this? That guy has not only provoked me but also Chen Jingcheng and Yin Donghan. Do you think they are pushovers who will let him off? Don't think I don't know what's on your mind. You've always had a place for that guy in your heart, otherwise why wouldn't you even let me kiss you after dating me for four or five months?"
Thinking about it, Sun Renyao felt outraged; was he just fated to be everyone's backup?
"Stop the car!" Xiao Meimei shouted in fury, completely irritated by Sun Renyao's obtuseness.
"What are you doing?" Sun Renyao asked with a dark look, but he still pulled the car over.
Xiao Meimei pushed open the car door, got out, and then slammed it hard: "Sun Renyao, let me make myself perfectly clear; we are done!"
Sun Renyao was foolish but not her; back at the jewelry store, it was clear Hao Jian didn't take them seriously at all. Even a police captain had to be utterly respectful toward him.
Moreover, Hao Jian's other identity was the fiancé of the Shu Ya Group president. Although the Shu Ya Group might not rank first in Huaxia, its wealth and influence certainly exceed that of her, Yin Donghan, and Chen Jingcheng combined. She didn't believe that Chen Jingcheng and the others could really do anything to Hao Jian.
Too bad, Sun Renyao had already lost his rationality and could not see the situation clearly.
Seeing Xiao Meimei storm off after slamming the door, Sun Renyao's face darkened scarily, but he blamed everything on Hao Jian.
Hao, I will definitely not let you off!
