Chapter 465: Husband
However, Qin Haodong did not hesitate as he dialed the police.
Under the attention of the crowd, he clearly described what had happened here, and then gave the address.
After he hung up the phone, he suddenly yelled at the middle-aged man, “Don’t move.”
With this yell, everyone’s eyes shifted to the middle-aged man. They saw that one of his hand was inside his chest pocket.
Qin Haodong took two steps forward, then he stared at the middle-aged man and said, “Do you want to move the counterfeit money because I just called the police?”
“What are you talking about? I don’t have any counterfeit money.” The middle-aged man strongly argued, “I’m grabbing the things inside my pocket. What’s it to you?”
He turned around and got onto the tricycle. It seemed that he wanted to leave. Qin Haodong stretched out his hand and pulled out the key from the tricycle. He smiled and said, “Brother, you told me to call the police. Now that I have called them, why are you in such a hurry to go?
Also, don’t touch anything inside your chest pocket. Everyone is watching. It would be bad if you were mistaken for transferring dirty goods.”
“Brat, are you f*cking looking for death?”
The middle-aged man looked ferocious as he stared at Qin Haodong viciously. “I still have to do business. I don’t have time to play with you. Get out of here. I won’t argue with you.”
As soon as he said that, the people around them also saw that something was not right.
“There is obviously something wrong with this guy. This is a sign of guilt. Just now, he was shouting to call the police. But now, he is going to run away when the police is really called.”
“This is a guilty conscience. We almost wronged that little girl just now.”
“We can’t let him leave. It’s outrageous for such a big man to bully a little girl.”
The situation took a sharp turn for the worse. Although everyone was still upset, however the criticism had turned towards the middle-aged man.
Seeing that the situation was bad, the middle-aged man stared ferociously at Qin Haodong, who blocked him in front of the tricycle. “Are you going to piss off or not?”
As he spoke, he picked up a watermelon knife that was more than a foot long from the tricycle. It was very threatening.
“Brother, be careful,” Jia Shihan shouted anxiously.
The others followed as they shouted, “Young man, be careful as the dog might jump the wall in desperation.”
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Don’t worry. I’m not afraid of dogs. I’m least afraid of dogs jumping the wall.”
“You are f*cking looking for death!”
Seeing the time passing by seconds and minutes, the police would arrive soon. The middle-aged man finally lost his mind, as he picked up the watermelon knife in his hand, and viciously stabbed towards Qin Haodong.
Unexpectedly, this guy actually dared to make a move. Screams sounded around them.
Slapping sounds were heard.
Of course Qin Haodong was not stabbed by the knife. Instead, he grabbed the middle-aged man by the wrist as the watermelon knife fell to the ground. Immediately after that, Qin Haodong slapped him a few times on the face.
“Quite a big man. Do you still want some face? Not only do you deceive people with counterfeit money, you even bully a little girl. You are so shameless. Does your mother know?”
Qin Haodong said as he slapped the man again. Then, he kicked the man to the ground.
People did not see how Qin Haodong had done it. They only saw that he had subdued the ferocious middle-aged man. There was a burst of cheers around him.
“Little guy, good job. Not only are you courageous, you are also skilled!”
“Good job kid. I will give you a thumbs up…”
“Kid, do you have a girlfriend? My niece doesn’t have a boyfriend yet. How about I introduce her to you…”
Amid the hustle and bustle, a police car drove over. The door opened and several policemen came out of the car.
When Qin Haodong saw the policewoman at the front, he immediately froze. He almost suspected that he had crossed over to Jiangnan City. Wasn’t this bright and brave policewoman Nalan Wuxia?
“You… Why are you here?”
Nalan Wuxia seemed to be very satisfied with Qin Haodong’s reaction. She smiled and said, “Why? Wasn’t it you who called the police and asked me to come?”
Qin Haodong said, “That’s not what I meant. Shouldn’t you be in Jiangnan? Why are you here in Shanghai?”
Nalan Wuxia said, “I came to Shanghai to find you. Am I not allowed to come?”
What else could Qin Haodong say? Nalan Wuxia waved her hand and said, “Let’s take care of the matter first. We can talk about other things later.”
She pointed at the middle-aged man on the ground and said, “What is going on?”
Qin Haodong told her the entire story. Nalan Wuxia turned around and said, “Quickly go and search; see what’s in his bag.”
“Yes sheriff!”
The two policemen responded. Then, they grabbed the middle-aged man’s chest pocket and instantly found a lot of counterfeit banknotes.
The truth came out. This guy was a liar who used counterfeit banknotes to deceive people.
Qin Haodong helped Jia Shihan get back her own money and also took several different kinds of fruit. After been cheated by this guy, they had to take some as interest.
After the matter was dealt with, the middle-aged man was handcuffed by the two policemen and taken onto the patrol wagon.
Qin Haodong pulled Nalan Wuxia to the side and said, “What’s going on? When did you arrive in Shanghai?”
Nalan Wuxia said, “Today’s my first day at work. What a coincidence that I ran into you when you called the police.”
“You were a captain in Jiangnan! Why did you come to Shanghai to be a sheriff? The difference in level is so huge!”
Nalan Wuxia smiled and said, “It’s fine. Whether a captain or a sheriff, neither is of any use to me.”
“You… Is this worth it?”
Qin Haodong knew very well that Nalan Wuxia gave up the position as captain of the crime squad and went to Shanghai to become an ordinary policeman because of him.
“Of course it’s worth it. As the ancients said, one stay with her husband within one foot, otherwise he will easily run away. Although you are just someone I like, you still can’t be too far away from me.” Nalan Wuxia smiled, then she pointed to Jia Shihan next to him and said, “Sure enough. I didn’t watch you for a day and you already hooked up with a little beauty.”
“I…”
Qin Haodong knew Nalan Wuxia was joking with him, but he still felt touched inside.
“Forget it. I’m on duty today. I still have work to do. Remember to invite me to dinner when I’m free.”
After Nalan Wuxia finished talking, she took the person onto the car and drove back.
The people around them slowly dispersed when they saw that there was no more excitement to watch.
Qin Haodong said to Jia Shihan, “How are you? Did it scare you just now?”
Jia Shihan bit her lips and said, “Not really. I’m not that timid. It’s just that guy is too irritating. There seems to be a lot of bad people these days.”
Qin Haodong said, “This society is very complicated. There are many good people, but also many bad people. Since you want to enter society, you need to learn how to differentiate between good and bad people, and learn to protect yourself. Therefore, I wanted you to come outside more to enrich your experiences.”
Jia Shihan nodded and said, “I understand.”
Qin Haodong thought about it, and then took her to the phone store opposite them to buy a Dami phone, “In the future, call me as soon as you encounter any trouble outside. I will help you solve it.”
“Oh!”
Jia Shihan agreed and took the phone. The two of them then bought some dishes for dinner before returning to the villa.
After they returned home, Qin Haodong taught her how to use the mobile phone. Then he said, “You should find a job. Making money is secondary. Your main goal is to quickly blend in with the society.”
Jia Shihan said, “I understand this, but I only know how to play the guqin. I can’t do anything else.”
Qin Haodong thought about it. This was definitely a problem. The little girl in front of him was pretty much half a historical person. It would not be easy to find a job in a society where academic qualifications were needed everywhere.
Suddenly, his heart moved. He thought about Li Meiyu wanting concert tickets, as he said, “I will help you find a job where you can play the guqin. Do you want it?”
Jia Shihan nodded and said, “I do. As long as I can play the guqin.”
Qin Haodong took out his phone and called Ouyang Shanshan.
Within the Shanghai sports stadium, Ouyang Shanshan was doing intensive preparatory work, as tomorrow was her concert.
The main song of this concert was her new song that she wrote called 100 Thoughts Of Each Other. This was a song with a strong historical style. It sounded very nice when sung. However, Ouyang Shanshan always felt that the accompaniment of her band could not match her singing. It was always so short of something.
However, it was hard to blame them as she sang a historical style song. The instruments used now were things like electronic organ, electric guitar and piano. Although they could also play wonderful music, they were still a little bit behind in flavor and feeling.
After a joint practice the entire afternoon, everyone else felt that the singing effect was very good. Only Ouyang Shanshan was not satisfied with it at all.
Right at that moment, she heard her phone ring. After she saw the name on the screen, her breathing suddenly quickened.
For many days, that strong figure often appeared in her dreams. They thought of each other but could not meet. It was precisely because of that the 100 Thoughts Of Each Other was created. This song was close to perfect because it expressed her inner feelings.
She took a deep breath. She answered the phone with her slightly trembling hand.
“Is that you Haodong?”
They had not seen each other for a long time, but her feelings for this man had not gone rusty. On the contrary, she had directly changed Mr. Qin to a more intimate name.
“Big celebrity, I heard you are doing a concert in Shanghai?”
“That’s right. It’s tomorrow. It’s a pity you can’t come to watch.”
Ouyang Shanshan really regretted it, as the song was written for this man. However, it was a pity that he could not personally come to watch her concert.
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Said who? I am in Shanghai now. I will go to see your concert tomorrow night.”
“Really? You are not lying to me right?”
Ouyang Shanshan suddenly became excited.
“Of course I’m telling the truth. I’m living in the Shanghai level one district right now. Do you have time now? Come to my house and I will treat you to a meal.”
“I do. I will go over now.”
Ouyang Shanshan hurriedly agreed. These days, she had been looking forward to meeting Qin Haodong again. Now, she finally had the opportunity. No matter what she would not miss it.
“Okay then. I will send you the address.”
Qin Haodong said before he hung up the phone. Then, he sent his address to her.
Ouyang Shanshan hung up the phone, and then eagerly took off her rehearsal costume.
Zhao Sijia, the agent next to her, hurriedly said, “Shanshan, what are you doing?”
She was the gold medal agent who was recently sent to Ouyang Shanshan. She had always felt that Ouyang Shanshan was calm and star-like, and had never been so flustered.
Ouyang Shanshan said while taking off her clothes, “I’m going to see a friend!”
“But, the concert is tomorrow. You have to do rehearsals today!”
“Don’t worry. Haven’t I already had enough practice this afternoon? Tell everyone to have a rest tonight and rehearse tomorrow morning.”
In Ouyang Shanshan’s view, Qin Haodong being able to invite her to dinner at home alone was something absolutely more important than anything else. Maybe that man had her inside his heart.
After she spoke, she called the driver as they quickly headed towards the Shanghai level one district.
