Chapter 1214 - 1262: Meng Xiaofei’s Eccentricity
For Li Yifei, today’s incident was definitely unexpected, but since it happened, it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a bad thing. At least Brother Hao could be of use to him in the future. Mile City includes Dawa, and his desire to be the emperor there is simply out of the question.
So as long as Brother Hao stays in Dawa, even if he is not directly under Brother Hu, a word from Brother Hu would be enough for him to get things done. And as for the big boss behind the scenes—himself—he naturally wouldn’t dare to offend.
These underground forces are indeed not a good source for normal people, but since ancient times, such forces have never been completely eliminated. Li Yifei does not harbor grand ambitions to eradicate these forces, so making good use of them is his best approach for now.
Of course, what Li Yifei detests the most is drug trafficking and forcing women into prostitution. Drug trafficking is undeniably a scourge that harms the country and its people, not a question of crime, but a matter of basic human decency. And recently, with Lin Qiong’s crackdown on Noah’s Ark’s drug supply, the drug situation in Mile City has greatly improved. Moreover, Li Yifei has emphasized this point to Brother Hu, who had long ago instructed his subordinates not to touch drugs. With the major underground forces abstaining from drugs, Mile City naturally saw a reduction in drug activities. However, some other channels are unavoidable, so there are still some drugs circulating.
Regarding the matter of prostitution, Li Yifei is neither supportive nor against it. Whether acknowledged or not, the industry undeniably plays a role in reducing the rate of rape crimes. As long as both parties are willing, Li Yifei doesn’t think it’s a big deal.
Controlling these underground forces, if one wishes to profit from these areas, may not be a good thing. But for someone like Li Yifei, it could be a beneficial act for both the country and the people.
It was also for this reason that Lin Qiong, a female police officer with a strong sense of justice, did not express any objections. She only asked Li Yifei not to get too involved and just to keep them under control.
It was after ten when he got home that night. Today, it wasn’t Su Yiyi accompanying Li Yifei. In front of Li Yifei’s villa, Su Yiyi suddenly hugged Li Yifei and whispered softly, "Hubby, thank you."
Li Yifei embraced Su Yiyi’s waist, "Silly girl, there’s no need for thanks between us. I see your dad, and that’s just what I should do. Now that he has learned his lesson, I will certainly treat him well as my father-in-law."
"Hubby, you’re so good," Su Yiyi lifted her head and kissed Li Yifei’s face, then whispered in his ear, "When it’s my turn, I’ll definitely take good care of you."
