Chapter 754: Chapter 318: The Villain Boss_2

Gou Huai casually muddied the waters with a single sentence; now, no one’s plan could proceed.

Just as the atmosphere became a bit weird, Wang Lezhi delivered another fantastic assist.

"As elders, we should protect and shelter the children. Su, go ahead with what you’re doing, your Uncle Gu is just too proud to say it, but he does recognize your hard work. If there’s any mess during entrepreneurship, just call on your Uncle Gu to handle it!"

Gu Tongshu’s mouth twitched uncontrollably as he internally screamed, "I freaking don’t want to take the fall for him," but on the surface, he could only nod in agreement, showcasing a dissonant split between his insincere words and reluctant actions.

With the conversation at this point, neither Yang Lanping nor Yang Lanzi could bicker with Su Huai anymore, and Yang Yuerong didn’t want to get personally involved, watching this test likely ending in an anticlimactic whimper.

However, just at that moment, several security officers walked into the entrance of the hall.

These uncles were serious-looking and didn’t pause upon seeing a roomful of big shots, heading straight inside.

"Excuse me, could everyone make way, please? Who is Su Huai? Please come out and cooperate with the investigation!"

All the students from the big data class turned their gazes inward, guiding the vision of the uncles, who quickly identified the rebellious little white-haired one inside.

Yang Yuerong was dumbstruck: "What’s this about?"

Gu Tongshu’s face darkened like a gathering storm as he folded his arms behind his back and stood up straight, staring down Su Huai like a tiger.

Whatever the reason, disrupting my daughter’s birthday party makes you the one in the wrong!

The guards quickly approached Su Huai, who raised his hands voluntarily: "I’m Su Huai, may I ask what this is about?"

These days, the guards enforced the law very reasonably; the leader showed his ID to Su Huai, meanwhile a law enforcement recorder was activated, and he spoke politely as he began.

"I’m from such-and-such department... Su Huai, those fireworks outside, you set them off, didn’t you? Do you not know that setting off fireworks in the city without a permit is a punishable offense?"

As soon as the question was asked, the whole room erupted with a collective gasp.

Most of the young people didn’t understand what was happening, and started asking around: "What’s going on? What happened?"

The adults knew the reason and immediately turned their eyes toward Gu Tongshu.

Mr. Gu, you didn’t actually get the permit, did you?

Wan Fangjiang shook his head and jokingly said, "Hey, Mr. Gu, I’ve come to appreciate just how much you spoil your daughter..."

Gu Tongshu didn’t respond, silently clenching his fists.

Quickly, someone realized something wasn’t right—wait, why would they be looking for a young kid like Su Huai?

Su Huai wasn’t panicking, but Gu Jiuyue was getting anxious.

"Susu..."

"It’s okay."

Su Huai gently pressed down on her shoulder, gave a gentle smile, then turned his head and calmly responded, "Sorry, we were just watching the fireworks. As for your question, shouldn’t it be directed to the people actually setting them off at the site?"

The lead guard coughed, and a younger security officer immediately put on a fierce face: "Be honest! If we didn’t have a concrete tip-off, how could we possibly zero in on you so quickly?"

Playing bad cop can intimidate other kids, but with Su Huai, it wasn’t quite up to snuff.

Gou Huai just shrugged nonchalantly, spreading his hands in a disinterested manner.

"Then please go ahead and have the informant present the evidence, okay?"

The team leader caught a glimpse of Su Huai’s expression and instantly realized this wasn’t going to be easy.

He wasn’t rushing though, and calmly asked an unrelated question: "What’s this gathering for?"

Su Huai continued to stay at the forefront: "It’s a birthday party for my classmate."

The team leader subconsciously shifted his gaze to Su Huai’s surroundings, trying to spot who the party’s main character was, and got quite the shock.

He didn’t recognize Yang Yuerong or Gu Tongshu, but a bit further back was Wang Yuqing, an academician from Tsinghua University, amongst the crowd Wang Siming, a tycoon’s son, the elegant lady approaching was the wife of the local boss, and on the right was a middle-aged man laughing at the spectacle, who happened to be the head of the largest local enterprise...

Before he could finish scanning the crowd, Su Huai chimed in again:

"We were just planning to sing songs and chat in the hotel, but to our surprise, fireworks started outside. Look, we’re all behaving ourselves here, not going to the scene to watch. Doesn’t that prove we weren’t aware beforehand?"

Su Huai made a clean denial, but this was something he couldn’t just shake off.

The team leader shook his head and insisted, "Su, since someone specifically reported you by name, there has to be an outcome. You claim you were unaware, but does anyone here have evidence to back that up?"

The surroundings immediately burst into a noisy clamor, with some feeling the team leader was clueless and others catching the implied nuance.

There had to be an outcome to this issue, and what that outcome would be depended on the evidence you could provide.

In truth, many people on the scene had the status to step forward and negotiate with the team leader.

In Huaxia society, laws and relationships have always coexisted. For such "small matters" that don’t necessitate making a mountain out of a molehill, the handling can be very flexible.

But those who were qualified to speak out didn’t, instead they all turned unanimously toward Gu Tongshu.

Mr. Gu was the host today, and the wise wouldn’t presume to speak out of turn.

And Gu Tongshu didn’t immediately speak up either; he was waiting, waiting to see how Su Huai would deal with this abrupt incident.

It didn’t take long for Su Huai to show him.

He spread his hands with a light, helpless smile, saying, "How am I supposed to prove such a thing?"

Then, looking left and right, his eyes suddenly lit up when they landed on Gu Tongshu.

"Uncle Gu, as the host of today’s party, do you know what’s going on with the fireworks?"
