Chapter 596: Encounter by chance_2
“I’m not used to it,” Bai Lian said, looking down at WeChat.
Lu Lingxi had sent her a message that Yang Lin would be coming to Jiangjing in a couple of days.
Without asking how Lu Lingxi found out, Bai Lian immediately sent a message to Yang Lin, asking when she would arrive.
Jiang Fulai drove onto the main road, and after seeing her finish replying to the message, he hesitated before speaking, “You should probably get your driver’s license… never mind.”
Having seen her drive rashly, Jiang Fulai had never suggested she get a driver’s license.
He was afraid that, once Bai Lian finished learning, the points they all had combined wouldn’t be enough for the ones she’d have deducted.
“What do you think of Chen Yongkun?” Jiang Fulai changed the subject.
Bai Lian wasn’t much interested in modern cars either. She just propped her phone under her chin, speaking in a languid tone, “He used to be so-so, but now he is quite good.”
Everyone could see how rapidly Xiangcheng had developed this year, and all these were the achievements of Chen Yongkun’s hard work.
Around the corner, yellow roadblocks were placed at the intersection, and a bunch of police cars were parked ahead; that road had been temporarily closed.
Many private cars and taxi drivers stopped to join the crowd of onlookers smoking cigarettes.
Jiang Fulai calmly made a U-turn and selected a new route.
Shanhai Apartment.
The security guard at the entrance had already grown accustomed to the luxury cars that frequently came in and out of the complex.
No one was in 303.
Pu Xiaohan had taken Jiang He out to play, with Ming Dongheng acting as the driver for the two of them.
Bai Lian didn’t go in and went straight to the piano room in 302.
Jiang Fulai stood at the door for a while before gently closing it behind her. He went to the study next door and took out his cell phone to call Director Chen first.
“These two months?” Director Chen had nothing particular going on today and was fishing with Ji Heng.
Director Chen had counted on being demoted to Xiangcheng, expecting to stay for at least two years, so why the sudden possible return to Jiangjing?
“Yes,” Jiang Fulai obviously had little patience with Director Chen, “come back first. There will be several positions open in Yunxiao District for a re-election, and you should participate in the general election.”
Director Chen didn’t doubt the information given by Jiang Fulai.
He looked to his right where Ji Heng had moved to a different spot to bait, and Director Chen lowered his voice, “What about Uncle Ji? I heard from Xiaotang today that they’re also going to Jiangjing next month.”
After Bai Lian went to Jiangjing, Tang Ming’s students from class 15 would visit Ji Heng regularly.
Director Chen did the same.
If everyone left…
Bai Lian could offer him constructive advice, and Ji Heng occasionally had a few pointers for him. Having been around for so long, Director Chen viewed Ji Heng as an elder.
Jiang Fulai ended the call and returned to WeChat, clicking on Ji Heng’s profile—
[She got into a fight]@@novelbin@@
Ji Heng didn’t check his phone much while fishing, and half an hour later, he called Jiang Fulai directly.
“Alian got bullied?” Ji Heng’s voice betrayed his urgency.
He couldn’t imagine Bai Lian getting into a fight.
Jiang Fulai opened up his laptop, “She was acting bravely. Although it was dangerous, fortunately she wasn’t hurt.”
This time she wasn’t injured, but next time might not be the same.
Ji Heng picked up on that, he put down his fishing rod, picked up the cigarette holder from the ground, bent down, and lit it up.

Yu Family.
Grandma Yu was watching the chef make soup for Yu Hongjing. Her silver-white hair was all combed back, giving her a capable look, “Has Hongyi not answered the phone yet?”
She wanted to know the situation with the Xu family at the moment.
But since coming back from the hospital last night, she hadn’t gotten through to Yu Hongyi’s phone.
The female bodyguard replied, “That’s correct.”
Grandma Yu narrowed her eyes but didn’t think much of it, as Yu Hongyi often got involved in confidential activities.
Just as she was thinking about this, a servant came in panic-stricken from outside, “Madam! Madam!”
Grandma Yu walked from the kitchen to the living room, “What’s all this fuss about, calm down…”
Before she could finish her sentence, she saw the police following the servant, with the lead officer pulling out his badge, “Please cooperate with our investigation.”
“Investigate what?” Grandma Yu had never encountered such a situation since she was born and looked at them calmly, “If you have any matters, you can discuss them with my granddaughter…”
The leading officer didn’t respond but just took her to the police station to cooperate with the investigation.
At first, Grandma Yu maintained her composure until she saw Yu Hongjing in the interrogation room, his head still bandaged.
Yu Hongyi only came to see her an hour after she had arrived.
Seeing Yu Hongyi, Grandma Yu’s forced composure finally started to crack, “Hongyi, why have they arrested me and your brother?”
Yu Hongyi closed her eyes briefly, “Because of Yu Hongjing, all the clubs and bars in the entire Yunxiao District have been shut down for review, and the related staff are suspended from work.”
Yu Hongyi couldn’t find out any news. She hadn’t seen anyone from the Chen family.
The only reason she got into the police station was through connections she had from before.
What do you think?
