Chapter 247 - 250 Maintenance
Several people were talking when suddenly there was a knock at the door. Li Yifei called for the person to enter, and the door opened. Manager Zhao Jing from the Yiyun Clubhouse walked in with a few police officers, accompanied by Song Ziqiao and the two men.
Seeing the police enter, Xu Yingying, Ye Yunzhu, and He Fangqing all frowned simultaneously, also a bit puzzled, while Li Xinyue was somewhat panicked at this point. It was clear Song Ziqiao bringing the police was specifically for Li Yifei and her.
"That’s the kid, arrest him for me," Song Ziqiao barked angrily the moment he saw Li Yifei.
The police officers immediately rushed towards Li Yifei, but Zhao Jing, the manager, quickly extended his arms to block them, his face bearing a professional smile, "Mayor Song, could there be some misunderstanding here?"
Song Ziqiao snorted, "This kid hit me, what misunderstanding could there be? You’d best step aside, or I’ll arrest you as well."
Zhao Jing spoke calmly and firmly, "Mayor Song, I am but a minor character; arresting me is a simple matter for you. However, since our clubhouse opened, such an incident has never occurred. Now you want to arrest someone inside our establishment; this doesn’t seem quite appropriate, does it?"
Song Ziqiao frowned. He had been too impulsive earlier and now suddenly remembered that the Yiyun Clubhouse was quite extraordinary, backed by a vice mayor from the city. If it were just a vice mayor, that might still be bearable, but more importantly, the clubhouse was owned by a family with a standing not inferior to the Song family, perhaps even more powerful. He couldn’t afford not to give them face.
He looked at Zhao Jing and spoke in a deep voice, "This matter has nothing to do with you all; I am solely targeting this kid."
Zhao Jing gave a slight smile, "As for your personal grievances, Mayor Song, I have no right to interfere. However, everyone who comes here to dine is my guest, and I must take responsibility for my guests. I cannot let them be taken away by the police here unless they really are some sort of fugitives."
Song Ziqiao’s face darkened, "So I should just let him get away with hitting me?"
