725 -725: Exploiting the Rules
Li Lang approached with great enthusiasm to greet Li Qianfan and looked at Liu Ruyan with curiosity.
“She is my beloved, Liu Ruyan,” Li Qianfan said.
Li Lang immediately showed his respect, extending his right hand and saying, “I had no idea Mrs.
Li was so breathtakingly beautiful, like a fairy descending from heaven…”
“Hello,” Liu Ruyan said with an awkward smile.
Li Qianfan laughingly scolded, “If you’re no good at flattery, then don’t bother.
Who flatters people like that?
It’s giving me goosebumps.”
“I’m just not good with words, haha,” Li Lang said self-deprecatingly.
Just then, a pair of sisters caught Li Qianfan’s eyes.
It was the eldest Miss Murong Yue and second Miss Murong Zi from the Murong Family!
Tonight, Murong Yue was wearing a champagne-colored evening dress, and Murong Zi was in a purplish-red one, both sisters looking like blooming flowers.
As soon as they entered the banquet hall, they immediately became the focus of the event!
Countless guests in the hall swarmed to greet them and cozy up, but Murong Yue and Murong Zi made their way straight to Li Qianfan.
“You really did come to this birthday party,” Murong Yue said.
Murong Zi smiled and said, “It must have been Qian Youyu who invited you himself, right?
Do you know that his invitation is like a weasel paying a New Year’s visit to a chicken, with no good intentions?”
“Do I really need you guys to remind me?
I’m not stupid,” Li Qianfan said.
“Then you need to be careful tonight,” Murong Yue said seriously.
Murong Zi curiously looked at Liu Ruyan standing beside Li Qianfan and asked, “Who is she?
Your mom?”
As soon as Murong Zi spoke, Liu Ruyan’s face instantly turned dark.
Li Qianfan, in a hurry, glared at Murong Zi and said, “What ‘your mom’?
She is my beloved, Liu Ruyan!
Ruyan may be over a decade older than me, but that doesn’t mean you should mistake her for my mom.
Are you doing this on purpose?”
“I was just joking.”
Murong Zi laughed a few times, then took Liu Ruyan’s hand and said, “Sister Ruyan, don’t be upset, I was just teasing you.”
Liu Ruyan’s expression finally eased a bit.
As time went on, the number of guests in the banquet hall increased.
And finally, the birthday party began.
Dressed in a new white suit, Qian Youyu looked like a graceful white knight.
He made a splash by coming downstairs from the second floor, with the spotlight shining on him, instantly becoming the brightest star of the event.
“Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend my birthday party.
I would like to say thank you to everyone here, and I also…”
Qian Youyu started with a pretentious opener, but Li Qianfan had no interest in listening to his nonsense and directly took Liu Ruyan to the dining tables on the side of the banquet hall to stuff themselves.
“Ruyan, try this, it’s delicious!”
“Come on, let me get this for you.”
“And this, what is this thing?
I’ve never seen it before.”
Li Qianfan kept piling food onto their plates, building little mountains on each.
This scene naturally attracted the attention of many guests, but Li Qianfan didn’t care at all.
Liu Ruyan was a bit reserved at first, but she eventually let go and stopped caring.
Qian Youyu glanced over at Li Qianfan and Liu Ruyan, a cold sneer curling at the corner of his mouth.
Just be arrogant while you can, you won’t be able to jump around for much longer!
After tonight, you’ll be utterly disgraced!
Qian Youyu thought to himself, his face growing more and more smug as if he could already see Li Qianfan disgraced, becoming a rat on the street that everyone wants to strike, even a pathetic figure clanging into prison.
“What do you think Qian Youyu will do to me?” Li Qianfan asked in a low voice while savoring the delicacies.
Liu Ruyan thought for a moment and said, “Could it be hiring an assassin to attack you when you’re not expecting it?”
“Qian Youyu has already tried that move, and the Six-fingered Demon is almost certainly hired by him.
Plus, Qian Youyu must have made inquiries about us; he almost certainly knows that I am a cultivator.
Knowing this, he wouldn’t be so foolish to hire another assassin to attack me,” Li Qianfan said.
“Then I can’t think of anything else,” Liu Ruyan said.
Li Qianfan smiled faintly and said, “Since he can’t resolve this with force and the Qian Family’s power is of no use against me, then Qian Youyu will most likely use the rules to deal with me.”
“Rules?” Liu Ruyan was perplexed.
“That means the law,” Li Qianfan said.
Without waiting for Liu Ruyan to ask further, Li Qianfan continued, “Qian Youyu will almost definitely set a trap for me during the banquet to frame me with some crime.
That way, the police department will have no choice but to take action against me, to arrest me, and the Cultivator Administration Bureau certainly won’t help me, at least not openly help me clear my charges, right?”
Liu Ruyan furrowed her brows in contemplation for a while before finally nodding.
Although Li Qianfan had joined the Cultivator Administration Bureau, if he committed any illegal or criminal acts, the bureau’s senior officials would definitely not cover for him.
After all, the reason the Cultivator Administration Bureau exists is to maintain order and security in Hua Country.
If the bureau’s personnel violated the law and were not dealt with, then there would be no point in the existence of the Cultivator Administration Bureau anymore.
“Mr.
Li, you’re here, haha…”
A hearty laugh suddenly came through, and Li Qianfan turned his head to see that it was Director Chen Jianjun from the police department.
“You’re attending this banquet too? freēwēbnovel.com
Was it Qian Youyu who invited you?” Li Qianfan asked.
“Of course,” Chen Jianjun nodded and said.
Then Chen Jianjun lowered his voice and said, “Actually, I didn’t want to come.
I don’t like Qian Youyu, but I’m on good terms with the Qian Family Patriarch, so I really couldn’t refuse…”
“No need to explain, I understand,” Li Qianfan said.
Liu Ruyan then said, “Director Chen, why are you wearing your uniform to attend the banquet?”
“No choice, I’ve just gotten off work.
Things have been quite busy at the police station lately; I often work overtime till night,” Chen Jianjun said with a wry smile.
“Director Chen, you’re really dedicated,” Li Qianfan said.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Chen Jianjun left them to greet other guests.
Watching Chen Jianjun’s retreating figure, Li Qianfan clicked his tongue and said, “Qian Youyu has even invited over Director Chen Jianjun from the police department, which means my speculation is correct.”
“Later, Qian Youyu will enact his schemes and conspiracies, framing me with some crime, and then incite the guests at the scene to force Director Chen Jianjun to take me down…
simply perfect.”
Liu Ruyan said irritably, “And you’re still eating?
Think of a solution already!”
“Don’t worry, I have my own…”
Li Qianfan’s words were not yet finished when a woman he did not expect to see appeared in his field of vision.
