Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

"Holy shit!" Bright was shocked, "You’re Harriman? What happened to you?"

Even his mother wouldn’t recognize Harriman looking like this.

That wasn’t his fault, though.

Harriman replied irritably, "You tell me why. Can’t you see why in this situation?"

Bright looked around and his gaze fell on Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong, the only two people in the vicinity. The onlookers were all standing at a distance. He asked, "Could it be these two who did this to you?"

Harriman’s gaze bore into Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong: "Yes, they did it. They beat me up and left me like this. Hurry up and arrest them!"

Of course, Bright couldn’t just arrest someone on the spot: "Mr. Harriman, please tell me what happened. I need to know the details before I can take appropriate action. After all, our police enforcement must be based on evidence. I hope you can understand that."

His response was impeccably official.

Naturally, he was on Harriman’s side.

After all, Harriman was a popular singer and an American.

Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong were Asians, and Bright didn’t know who they were.

But being on Harriman’s side also required evidence.

He couldn’t just arrest someone because Harriman said so, without asking why or distinguishing right from wrong.

What would that make him?

Sure, he could act without question, but it depended on who was asking.

If a top Wall Street magnate wanted him to do the same, he would follow orders without questioning.

Harriman, despite being a popular singer, was not at that level yet.

Harriman immediately said, "Chief Bright, here’s what happened: As I was being escorted by my security team to attend an event nearby, we passed by here. Both my bodyguards and I always yield to pedestrians, as I have always done. You should know that."

Bright thought to himself that if Harriman and his security knew how to yield to pedestrians, it would be a miracle on par with the sun rising in the west.

I was the one maintaining order during the last event.

Harriman and his security had rudely knocked down so many pedestrians.

Though he thought this, Bright obviously couldn’t voice it aloud. Instead, he nodded and said, "I know. You’re a person of great moral character, a role model for our beautiful nation. I constantly teach my child to learn from you and be a person of great moral character."

Having uttered these words, Bright nearly disgusted himself.

But he had no choice; he was subjectively on Harriman’s side and naturally had to play along with Harriman’s narrative.

He knew what kind of person Harriman was: a bastard, but very generous with his money.

During their last encounter, Harriman had given him a lighter worth ten thousand dollars.

This time, by siding with Harriman, who knows, there might be another gift in store for him.

After all, making money was the main thing. Why not go for it?

Harriman was very pleased with Bright’s reaction.

The guy was as fat as a pig and looked like an idiot, but he really knew how to agree with him.

If Bright helped out this time, caught Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong, and gave them a thorough beating, he would regain his dignity.

Then he could consider giving Bright the watch on his wrist worth a hundred thousand dollars.

That watch alone was worth an entire year’s salary for Bright.

Thinking this, Harriman said, "Only you understand me, Chief Bright. Let’s continue with the matter at hand. My security team and I were yielding to pedestrians and walking properly when this man pushed my bodyguard to the ground. Naturally, I demanded an apology. That’s reasonable, isn’t it?"

Bright nodded in agreement: "Very reasonable, couldn’t be more so. You did the right thing. When faced with such an incident, it’s important to demand an apology. Otherwise, it would be condoning rudeness and arrogance, which is detrimental to societal norms."

Harriman said, "Exactly, that’s what I thought. So I asked for an apology, but he didn’t apologize. Not only did he not apologize, but he also hit my other security personnel. Look, my security team is still lying on the ground. They are so unreasonable, so arrogant, so lawless. Does Newcago have any laws?

Is there any rule of law?"

As he spoke, he pointed to his security personnel lying on the ground.

These security personnel cooperated by crying out in pain, looking as miserable as possible.

Seeing this situation, Bright was somewhat convinced by what Harriman had said.

He knew that Harriman had always been arrogant, rude, and domineering.

Getting into conflicts was practically a daily occurrence for him.

And it was almost always him who started trouble.

For instance, once his security personnel knocked down a pedestrian, and when the pedestrian demanded an apology from the security staff and Harriman, Harriman had his security personnel cripple the man.

That incident was exposed online and caused an uproar at the time.

But there was nothing to be done, Harriman’s boss behind the scenes smoothed everything over.

Harriman didn’t face any consequences and continued to be his popular singing self.

Afterward, on outings, he continued to be as arrogant and overbearing as ever.

Actually, in Bright’s subconscious, any conflict involving Harriman was definitely Harriman’s fault.

But now Harriman had been beaten to the point that even he didn’t recognize him.

Harriman’s security personnel were also lying on the ground wailing.

In this situation, it really seemed like Harriman had been bullied by these two Asians.

Although seeing Bright being bullied brought some pleasure to Bright’s heart.

Yet Bright knew he should stand with Harriman.

No matter how much he disliked Harriman, Harriman was white, an American.

While the other party was Asian, foreigners.

When there was a conflict between an Asian and an American, Bright, being a redneck, naturally sided with Harriman.

Furthermore, Harriman was a celebrity known to every American household.

Those two Asians; he didn’t know them at all.

Perhaps they were wealthy in their own country.

But even if they were wealthy, that didn’t amount to much in America.

Also, standing with Harriman and doing things for him would definitely bring benefits.

Those two Asians were unlikely to give him any benefits.

So, whether for public or private reasons, both emotionally and logically, he should stand with Harriman.

Thinking this, Bright said, "So these Asians are really that arrogant and domineering?"

Upon hearing Bright’s words, Harriman knew Bright was going to help him.

This wasn’t strange and wasn’t beyond his expectations.

After all, the two of them had connections, and Harriman had a pretty good idea of what Bright was like.

So he said, "They’re not just arrogant and domineering, they even tried to kill me!"

Bright was shocked, "What did you say? They wanted to kill you?"

"Yes," Harriman nodded and pointed at Xu Yang, "Look at this guy, he’s holding a handgun, this is proof of his intent to kill me. If it weren’t for being in broad daylight, and his reservations, you might not have seen me at all!"

Bright really hadn’t noticed the handgun in Xu Yang’s hands before, but now he did.

He even recognized it, it was Harriman’s gun, he had seen it before.

Harriman’s gun had made the news.

Because once, he had used it to shoot and injure someone.

The gun was registered with the police.

But how had Harriman’s gun ended up in Xu Yang’s hands?
