Chapter 813: Chapter 853 Trouble Got Bigger

"You... to actually dare to assault a police officer..." A policeman struggled to get up, looking at Li Yifei nervously as he spoke, realizing how idiotic he sounded. With so many people down, especially the chief lying there not moving at all, and no knowledge of the situation, it was absurd to talk about daring or not daring.

Li Yifei couldn’t be bothered to pay them any attention now, while Su Mengxin said, "You all should leave for now, come back in half an hour to search if you wish, but I warn you, you better investigate thoroughly. Don’t deliberately come to trouble us, or the consequences will be beyond what you can imagine."

The police officers exchanged glances and finally carried their chief out of the yard. Who knows what they said in the police car, but they left soon after.

Su Mengxin looked at Li Yifei’s still somewhat bloodshot eyes and felt an indescribable sweetness in her heart. Li Yifei’s impulsiveness was partly because a policeman had drawn a gun, but obviously it was also because she was right beside him. She took Li Yifei’s hand and said softly, "Stay calm, it’s not worth getting angry over such small-minded people."

In that situation, even if Li Yifei had killed the chief on the spot, it would have been in vain, as the gun was pointed at Su Mengxin. If a normal bodyguard of Su Mengxin’s were there, they would have shot the chief dead already. It was the chief’s good fortune that it was Li Yifei standing there.

"Mhm, it’s okay," Li Yifei replied, gripping Su Mengxin’s hand in his. He had already made one mistake and absolutely could not make the same one again.

The two looked at each other, Su Mengxin sweetly leaning her head on Li Yifei’s shoulder. Without saying a word, they both understood each other’s sentiments.

Arm in arm, they went upstairs and saw the saint still treating Xu Yingying. She appeared undisturbed, which put Li Yifei at ease.

However, after about twenty minutes, the saint still hadn’t let go. Usually, by this time, the treatment would be finished, but today, for some reason, it was taking longer.

Although Li Yifei really wanted to ask, he didn’t dare to disturb the saint, so they could only wait now. This also made him very excited; the saint behaving differently from usual could mean that there was a development with Xu Yingying, possibly even a good one—how could this not make Li Yifei anxious and excited?

These past few days, Su Mengxin had also come to understand the saint’s treatment process and was tense now, tightly holding Li Yifei’s hand because of the change today.

But just then, Li Yifei’s expression changed, and he pulled Su Mengxin out of the room, whispering, "Don’t come out of the room, there may be some trouble."

"What happened?" Su Mengxin asked, looking puzzled at Li Yifei.

Li Yifei gestured toward the outside and said, "A large number of police are coming, and there must be SWAT too."

"How did it come to this?" Su Mengxin’s brows furrowed tightly, realizing the critical timing. If these police and such really disrupted the saint’s treatment of Xu Yingying, not just Li Yifei, but she herself, would not let these people off.

But these thoughts were for later. The most urgent matter now was to resolve the current situation. Su Mengxin quickly took out her phone and said, "I’ll call someone right away to get them to pull back."

Li Yifei nodded. If the situation could be resolved that easily, nothing could be better. But after Su Mengxin dialed the number and listened for a while, she put the phone down in panic and said, "Why is there no signal here?"

Li Yifei looked at Su Mengxin’s phone and said, "The signal has been jammed; it seems their operation is quite significant."

Su Mengxin made a decisive decision and immediately said, "You handle them. If you can avoid killing people, then don’t, but if you must, then do it. They absolutely can’t interfere with the saint."

Li Yifei nodded grimly. For Xu Yingying’s sake, he had already killed over two hundred members of the Yamaguchi Group, and now, even in Huaxia, he wouldn’t be lenient.

Wu Gang and a few underlings were hiding nearby, watching secretly. They were entirely responsible for what was unfolding.

Although driven away by the saint, this kid had not given up hope after witnessing the saint’s strength. With the two beautiful women being so attractive, he found it hard to reconcile not having them.

But relying on his own abilities, it was not easy to get both women, so he racked his brains for a devious plan. He was related to the chief, and if he could get the chief to arrest Li Yifei and then intervene to rescue the two women, wouldn’t he have a chance with them?

Even if the woman was strong, what use would it be against the police?

The kid had sneaked back into the fortress and, while Li Yifei and Su Mengxin took Xu Yingying out to the hillside to sunbathe, had stealthily placed a small packet of drugs in Li Yifei’s house. Then he had his subordinates call his relative, the chief, to report that there were drugs at Li Yifei’s place.

After receiving such an alarm, the director naturally came, but he didn’t expect to arrive just as the saint was healing Xu Yingying. Li Yifei wouldn’t let them enter to search, and even hurt them in the process, which escalated the situation significantly.

Wu Gang didn’t anticipate that Li Yifei would dare to assault police officers, which greatly surprised him, and he felt quite downcast. If they couldn’t even catch them, his hope of getting the two beauties was dashed.

But as he wallowed in his dismay, a large group of police and SWAT officers arrived, which thrilled Wu Gang. Now, no matter how capable the three people inside were, they would have to surrender.

Yet, he also worried that with the situation so escalated, it would be more difficult to extract the two beauties later, but considering his connections, it wasn’t impossible. When the time came, he would pin all the blame on the man, making sure he could never get out, and as for the beauties, it would just cost more money to get them out. For those two, spending money was worth it, and having spent money, he could expect their gratitude. With this thought, his worries faded, leaving only excitement.

The arrival of the SWAT teams was at the request of the director Li Yifei had knocked out. Li Yifei hadn’t been particularly forceful, so by the time they got the man into a car, he had revived. As director, being knocked out was unacceptable, so he reported to his superiors that there was a major drug trafficking gang resisting arrest and assaulting officers.

The higher-ups, upon hearing the report, believed it to be a major case and quickly dispatched reinforcements. Within twenty minutes, a large number of police officers had arrived, treating the situation as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Li Yifei, Su Mengxin, and the saint never expected that driving some thugs away would trigger such a major incident.

The injured director reported that the people inside were highly skilled; they had incapacitated six officers in an instant, and even having guns was useless, as they were snatched away. This made the police even more wary, daring not to act rashly. They surrounded the house and blocked the signals there.

Several nearby houses were commandeered by the police, who quickly climbed onto the rooftops to watch the house from above.

"Attention, inside the house..." A police officer, about to address those inside via megaphone, heard a dull thud, and his megaphone was knocked flying out of his hand.

All the officers instinctively flinched; the scene resembled something out of a movie where police are met with a swift, dramatic response the moment they attempt to negotiate, typically by a formidable terrorist.

Then, a man emerged from the wooden building. The snipers positioned on high had their rifles trained on him, but without orders, they hesitated to shoot.

Naturally, Li Yifei stepped out, and once he reached the courtyard, he was fully exposed with no front door shielding him, and the officers in the police cars ahead could see him clearly.

The officer in command of the operation was a Deputy Director named Gao Dong. Seeing a man step out alone, he immediately said, "Do not shoot. The situation is unclear; we don’t know if there are hostages. Let’s see what he wants."

Li Yifei raised his hands—a typical negotiation gesture—and then slowly walked towards the gate.

Several officers were eager to capture Li Yifei, but Gao Dong quickly gestured to stop them.

"Who’s in command here?" Li Yifei asked calmly as he stopped at the gate.

Gao Dong stepped forward and said, "I’m Deputy Director Gao Dong of the City Public Security Bureau, and I’m in charge of this operation."

Li Yifei nodded and replied, "Good, I want to talk to you."

Gao Dong’s expression darkened, "I advise you to surrender now. Resisting will only worsen your charges."

Li Yifei frowned slightly and said, "I’m just here getting medical treatment for my wife. As for drug trafficking, we’ve never been involved."

Gao Dong responded promptly, "If that’s the case, you should cooperate with our police, let us search your residence. If we find no drugs, there won’t be any issues."

"My wife is currently being treated by a doctor, and we cannot be disturbed. If you want to search, then wait a bit longer. Once the doctor finishes treating my wife’s injury, I will cooperate with your search."

Li Yifei’s approach was not aggressive. He hoped to resolve the issue quietly because if any conflict arose, it would surely cause significant trouble. For Xu Yingying’s sake, he had no choice but to explain the situation thoroughly to the police.
