Chapter 768: Chapter 806 Such a Weapon"Ah!"
Xiao Lingâer, Zheng Yuling, and Su Mengfei all screamed out loud at that moment, throwing the toilet brush, trash can, and even a toothbrush they had in their hands at the enemy with their eyes shut, screaming shrilly. The sound echoed in the cramped bathroom, almost piercing through oneâs eardrums.
Li Yifei had just dealt with the people outside, a task that took quite some effort. Not only were there eleven of them, but the sniper among them was a real pro. It was because of him holding Yifei back that it took Yifei so much effort to eventually kill those ten men. The sniper almost got away, but in the end, Yifei managed to take him down too.
He came back intending to give them a heads-up, but who would have thought that upon opening the bathroom door, he would be greeted like this? Su Mengfeiâs toilet brush was scrubbing back and forth in front of his face, Zheng Yulingâs trash can swung up and down, and Xiao Lingâer wielded her toothbrush at high speed but with tiny strokes, as if brushing the air.
"Hey, hey, are you guys cleaning up or something?" Li Yifei took a step back to avoid getting hit and said with a mix of annoyance and amusement.
"Ah!" The three of them suddenly froze, then opened their eyes, saw Li Yifei, and cheered in unison, pouncing on him all at once.
At that moment, Yifei understood their feeling of having a narrow escape from death and generously opened his arms to embrace the three of them.
While hugging Li Yifei, all three started to sob, and their cries grew louder and louder, out of sheer terror.
Li Yifei let them cry for a bit before patting their backs and saying, "Okay, okay, itâs over now. Hey, stop crying, youâve smeared all your snot on my clothes."
"Ah!" That turned out to be quite effective; nothing hits a woman harder than her own appearance and dignity. The thought of having smeared their snot over Li Yifeiâs clothes was mortifying, and they quickly let go of him.
Li Yifei joked, "Iâm saying, Xiao Lingâer, even if we want to use a toothbrush as a weapon next time, we should at least point the sharp end toward the enemy, right?"
Xiao Lingâer was immediately flustered, threw away the toothbrush, and gave Li Yifei a glare, "You jerk, why didnât you say something before coming up here? We thought you were a bad guy."
Li Yifei rolled his eyes, "You guys really have no faith in me."
Su Mengfei and Zheng Yuling looked at the âweaponsâ in their hands and threw them to the ground before bursting into laughter at the absurdity of using such items for self-defense.
"All right, now get your bodyguards over here to take care of this mess. I canât show up directly," Li Yifei reminded them.
Upon hearing this, the three of them knew the urgency of the situation. Yifeiâs identity was no longer what it used to be. After killing so many people and causing such a commotion, it was likely that the nearby residents had called the police, and the authorities would require an explanation.
But actually, there was no need for Xiao Lingâer to give the order, as the bodyguards had already rushed over; they werenât too far from the location. When they heard the gunshots, they hurried over, but by the time they arrived, it was all over.
For Xiao Lingâer, the time in the bathroom felt as long as a year, but in reality, only a few minutes had passed.
A few minutes after the bodyguards arrived, the police cars showed up, and less than ten minutes later, even the SWAT team appeared. A gunfight in Mile City was definitely a major event, and not just for Mile Cityâin all of Huaxia, such a shootout would be considered a big deal.
Su Mengfei and the others simply said that the men had come to kill them but were gunned down by their bodyguards. Given their status and the fact that their bodyguards were licensed to carry firearms, it was perfectly justified for them to have killed the thugs in such a situation.
Among those who arrived was Lin Qiong, who had been very busy recently and hadnât bothered Li Yifei. And now, due to the attention she had been getting from the city authorities, she definitely had to be involved in such a major case.
When it was time for the statement, Lin Qiong took Li Yifei aside to do it personally.
"What exactly happened? How did it blow up into such a huge ordeal?" Lin Qiong asked frowningly.
Li Yifei gave a wry smile, "I donât know either. Theyâre all Mengxinâs friends who came here to hang out with me. Who would have thought weâd run into such trouble?"
"Why didnât you leave anyone alive? How could you kill them all?" Lin Qiong glared at Li Yifei, not believing that those men were killed by the bodyguards. It must have been Li Yifeiâs doing that resolved the situation so swiftly.
Li Yifei lit a cigarette, "They all had guns, and there was a sniper. It was hard to take any prisoners."
"Do you know who they were?" Lin Qiong pressed on.
"Actually, I have no idea." Li Yifei really hadnât focused on their identities. After he went out, they all targeted him and didnât break into the villa. It was clear that they were there for him, and those gunning for him were surely from some organizations. Whether he knew their identities or not, it made no difference to Li Yifei.
"Iâm really fed up with you, but..." Lin Qiongâs gaze suddenly sharpened, and she stood up swiftly, advancing two steps to Li Yifeiâs face, grabbing his neck, and demanding, "Whatâs your relationship with those three women?"
Li Yifei hurriedly explained, "Qiongqiong, I have nothing to do with them. One is Su Mengxinâs cousin, and the other two are her friends. I met them through Su Mengxin. They are just some high-class ladies looking for fun. They got bored and caught me as I was passing by. How could I possibly handle them, and three at once no less? Youâre really overestimating me."
Lin Qiong actually felt that Li Yifei couldnât possibly do anything with three people, but as soon as she saw Li Yifei with another woman, she couldnât help but feel jealous. She snorted and said, "That better be the case. If I find out youâre fooling around outside, youâll see what the consequences are."
Li Yifei took Lin Qiongâs hand, and with a gentle pull, he made her sit on his lap. Lin Qiong struggled a bit, but didnât really try to get up. She glared at Li Yifei but ended up wrapping her arms around his neck.
Li Yifei gently kissed Lin Qiong on the face and said, "My little Qiongqiong has gotten a bit thinner these days. Donât work so hard. You need to balance work and rest."
Lin Qiong rolled her eyes at Li Yifei and said, "I get home and thereâs no husband to cook for me. What else am I supposed to do if I donât work?"
Whether it was Ye Yunzhu, Lin Qiong, or Ning Xinâer, they all liked to say these sour words, but that was precisely Li Yifeiâs weak spot. He could only cough and say, "Iâve heard some unsettling people will be coming to Mile City recently, and they are quite skilled. You have to be careful. No matter what, the first thing is to ensure your own safety. Do you remember that?"
Lin Qiong felt gratified inside. No matter what, she could feel Li Yifeiâs concern for her, and her tone became much softer. "I know," she said.
"Good. If you encounter any difficult situation, make sure to tell me. I will definitely help you."
"Arenât you afraid your wife wonât let you?"
"Xu Yingying might object to other things, but when it comes to your safety, she wonât. Even if she did, I would still have to come."
These words made Lin Qiong feel even more comfortable. She snorted and said, "Youâre quite the talker. Iâll let you off the hook today."
After Li Yifei appeased Lin Qiong, Su Mengfei and the others had also sorted things out. The police in Mile City were afraid Su Mengfei and her friends would hold them accountable, but now they had said that this incident wasnât Mile City Policeâs fault and the higher-ups would handle it, which meant Mile City was off the hook.
Coming out of the police station, Li Yifei said to Su Mengfei and the other two women, "Ladies, I wonât send you back."
"No way!" The three of them answered in unison.
"Huh? Youâre not letting me go?" Li Yifei had an expression of misery. It was past dinner time, and although Xu Yingying hadnât called to ask after him, the later he returned, the more difficult it would be to explain.
"Of course weâre not letting you go. Otherwise, I could ask for leave from your wife, what do you think?" Xiao Lingâer said with a cheeky grin, looking at Li Yifei. Now that everything was settled, the girl had reverted to her odd, playful self.
Li Yifei jumped in fright and said, "No need, no need."
Xiao Mengfei pulled on Li Yifeiâs sleeve, pouting as she said, "Brother-in-law, weâre really scared. If youâre not by our side, we wonât dare to sleep tonight."
"Really...?"
"Definitely. Can you just not go home tonight, please?" Su Mengfei pleaded with Li Yifei.
Li Yifei shook his head helplessly and said, "Then I need to call my wife first. And youâre not allowed to play any tricks."
"We wonât, we wonât..." The three of them shook their heads.
Li Yifei walked a few steps to the side, feeling not quite safe, and then moved a few more steps away before he finally got through to Xu Yingying on the phone.
"Yingying, I canât come home tonight," Li Yifei said, treading carefully.
"Oh?" Xu Yingyingâs voice was very calm.
But her calmness made Li Yifei even more worried, so he quickly added, "I just found out that among these three girls, one of them is actually Su Mengxinâs cousin, and there was an incident just now. Some people want to harm them, so I have to stay to protect them."
"Mengxinâs cousin?" Xu Yingyingâs voice immediately lost its calm.
"Yes, her name is Su Mengfei, and the other two are called Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling. Mengxin knows them. You can call Mengxin to ask."
"Why didnât you say so sooner, geez? Then you better protect them," she said.
Li Yifei mentioned Su Mengxin, and Xu Yingying immediately believed him. It was a foolproof move, yet Xu Yingying had no idea that Su Mengxin was actually playing both sides.
