Chapter 1298 – Arrest me? Go ahead!
Morning.
After 10 am.
It was a mess at the City State Security Bureau. The staff were watching. Dong Xuebing wanted to make a phone call, and a Higher-up leader came.
In front of the car.
Jiang Song was quiet. Over a dozen guns and so many people cannot stop him.
Jiang Song does not believe Minister Lui’s words. How is that possible? That young man’s combat skill would be out of this world if Minister Lui told the truth. “Old Leader, that guy is injured. Even if he has good combat skills, he cannot win against so many people. Moreover, how can he block bullets? I saw his file is Tier 1, but that does not allow him to barge into our unit and beat up others.”
Minister Lui replied. “He is someone you cannot judge with common sense.”
Jiang Song’s brows twitched. “Old Leader, he…”
“Enough. Do as I say. Disperse them and stop watching. Ask you men to return to work. It is messy enough.” Minister Lui waved his hand. “I know how to handle him.”
Jiang Song nodded and called his men over.
“Senior Lui.”
“Minister Lui.”
“Why are you here, Minister?”
The few Deputy Chiefs and City Bureau Leaders walked over.
The door opened, and Jiang Song helped Minister Lui out of the car. He nodded at them and looked towards Dong Xuebing.
Jiang Song ordered. “Stand down. Ask them to return to work. Tell those here for the meeting to wait in the meeting hall and…” He paused for a second and looked at the staff, pointing their guns at Dong Xuebing. “Tell them to spread out and keep their guns. Let him call if he wants.”
“Huh?”
“But…”
“Just do it.”
The staff returned to the office building but were not interested in working. They stood by the windows to watch Dong Xuebing. They were shocked when they saw those staff keeping their guns.
“What is going on?”
“Why did they keep their guns?”
“Are they not going to watch that guy?”
“Eh? That is Minister Lui!”
“Is this Minister Lui’s instruction? Why?”
Outside of the office building.
Dong Xuebing took out his phone after the people surrounding him left. He checked his contacts. Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle, Senior Xie, Xie Huilan, her father… He cannot call them. Xie Huilan would scold him, and he was scared of his father-in-law. He thought for a while and called Xie Huilan’s mother, Han Jing. He knows his mother-in-law will not be angry with him.
Ring… ring… ring…
The line got through.
“Hello, Xiao Bing.” Han Jing answered.
“Where are you, Mum?” Dong Xuebing asked.
“I am at home. I am thinking of what to eat for lunch. Do you want to join me?”
“No. Err… I… I am in a little trouble now.”
“Trouble? What happened? Why are you in trouble again? Tell me.”
“It’s like this. A City State Security Bureau Leader bullied me. He hit an old leader of mine. How can I stand it? So… I barged into the City Bureau and beat him up.”
“You beat up someone in the City State Security Bureau?”
“Yes.”
“How many people are injured?”
“I held back on others, and they suffered minor injuries. Only that person is injured more seriously. He is sent to the hospital. But don’t worry. No one died.”
“I am speechless about you, brat.”
“Mum, do you know what that guy did? My former Leader is a middle-aged woman. He slapped and kicked her with all his strength. He is lucky I did not beat him to death.” Dong Xuebing did not think he had done anything wrong. “Chief Xu is my first Leader. I had not even met Huilan at that time. I was clueless about the government service, and she cared for me. She got me out of trouble several times. You can see her as my mentor. How can I let others beat her up? I will not stand for it.”
“Are you hurt?”
“I am fine. They cannot hurt me. They also cannot stop me if I want to leave now. But if I leave now, it will be a bit…”
“I understand. Wait for me.”
“Thank you, Mum. Sorry to trouble you.”
“I am used to it. I will suspect you are my son-in-law if you are not causing trouble. You just cannot keep still.”
Dong Xuebing tried to argue. “I treasure the people around me.”
Han Jing laughed. “You are only saying the good things. I am hanging up.”
Dong Xuebing kept his phone after hanging up. He felt assured now.
Dong Xuebing does not think he has done anything wrong. He would barge into the City Bureau to beat up Wang Shen again if given a choice. However, he knows the seriousness of his actions. After all, it happened in the City State Security Bureau. He knew he could not handle this and called his mother-in-law for help. If not, he would be implicated, which might affect his career.
Minister Lui, Jiang Song, and other leaders walked over.
Dong Xuebing saw them and felt the old man in front look familiar. He remembered who he was.
Minister Lui looked at him. “It’s been a while, Xiao Dong.”
Dong Xuebing greeted. “Minister Lui.”
Dong Xuebing had met Minister Lui when he was in the City Western Branch. Minister Lui visited his branch for an inspection and had an asthma attack and heart attack at the family quarters. Dong Xuebing used BACK to rush to the nearest pharmacy to buy medicine to save him. Minister Lui also helped him after that incident.
Why is Minister Lui here?
Is he here to handle this incident?
Dong Xuebing asked. “How is your health?”
“I am fine.” Minister Lui did not say much.
The other Deputy Chiefs were surprised to see Minister Lui knew this hooligan.
Minister Lui stopped smiling and asked in a stern tone. “What is your explanation for today’s incident?”
Dong Xuebing replied casually. “Minister Lui, you should know I am not unreasonable. I would not beat him up if Wang Shen had done nothing wrong. I will not say what he did, but I have my reasons for beating him. He deserves it.” He was still angry after beating Wang Shen up. Sister Xu is still covered in bruises and pain.
The Deputy Chiefs were furious when they heard him.
Deserve it? How are you reasonable when you beat up someone? Bullshit!
No one expected Dong Xuebing to continue to behave like a hooligan in front of Minister Lui.
Minister Lui was not surprised. He had seen Dong Xuebing’s file and knew this guy would go crazy when he was angry. “I know you might have some disputes with Wang Shen. But you should know where this place is. This is the State Security. How can you barge in like this? Xiao Dong, have you considered the consequences? Do you know what your actions mean?”
Dong Xuebing replied. “I know.”
“Good.” Minister Lui said. “Although we know each other, you need to give everyone an explanation.”
“What explanation do you want?” Dong Xuebing looked at Minister Lui.
Minister Lui calmly replied. “Come back with us.”
Dong Xuebing took out a cigarette and lit it. “You are arresting me.”
Jiang Song said. “You can think of it like this. Put out your hands.”
Jiang Song’s subordinate walked over with a pair of handcuffs.
Handcuffs?
They are serious about arresting me.
Dong Xuebing glanced at Minister Lui.
Minister Lui said. “Please cooperate, Xiao Dong.”
Dong Xuebing was a bit pissed when he saw Minister Lui going by the books. He thought to himself. I might not be noble, but I have significantly contributed to the country and people. You, of all people, should know what I did. Who saved the hostages from the pirates? Who challenged and won those Tae Kwon Do schools in Seoul? Who rescued the scientist from Florida’s research center? I even saved State Security agents and helped them complete their mission a few days ago. If I did not use BACK to get medication for you, you might be dead now. My former Leader was beaten up by your men, and I am here for revenge. How can you arrest me?
Haha….
What a joke.
Arrest me? Arrest Dong Xuebing?
Who can arrest me if I don’t want to be arrested?
Jiang Song’s subordinate saw Dong Xuebing did not move and grabbed his hand to put on the handcuffs.
Dong Xuebing sneered and twisted that subordinate’s hand and pushed him away. He lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Everyone was furious.
The people looking from the windows were furious, too.
They did not expect Dong Xuebing to resist in front of Minister Lui.
Jiang Song and his Deputies frowned. This hooligan!
Dong Xuebing thought nothing about it. He smiled at them. “You want to arrest me? Fine. I will not move a step. You all can try to arrest me. I will write my name backward if I move a step!”
