The Strongest Master Venturing Urban-Chapter 262: How About Giving Me a Kiss Instead?

As soon as Liao Ruoji saw Chen Bin, she immediately got up and threw herself into his arms.

Don’t be fooled by how calm she seemed in front of Ye Pei—she was just pretending.

The sight of Chen Bin made her feel as if she had found a savior.

Chen Bin also held Liao Ruoji tightly in his arms.

Seeing that she wasn’t injured, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Liao Ruoji wasn’t hurt, everything else could be dealt with.

Watching the two of them embracing, Ye Pei suddenly became furious.

He shouted angrily at Chen Bin, "What makes you think you can come here? Get the hell out of here!"

Chen Bin was already angry, and these words only made his fury boil over.

Loosening his hold on Liao Ruoji, he went straight up to Ye Pei and slapped him across the face.

Slap!

The crisp sound echoed, and Ye Pei was utterly stunned.

From childhood to adulthood, aside from Ye Hong, no one else had ever dared to hit him.

How dare Chen Bin?!

"You fucking dare to hit me?"

Before Ye Pei’s words were finished, Chen Bin slapped him again.

The force was so strong that it split the corner of Ye Pei’s mouth.

Seeing the furious Chen Bin, the other officer dared not say a word.

After getting Liao Ruoji to retrieve her camera and phone, Chen Bin left immediately.

Just after leaving the Shiqiao Police Station, Chen Bin pulled the car over to the side.

Liao Ruoji leaned against his shoulder and cried her heart out.

Seeing her tear-streaked, heartbroken face, Chen Bin felt a pang of sorrow deep in his heart.

"I’m sorry I came late."

Choking on her tears, Liao Ruoji replied, "You don’t need to apologize to me. It wasn’t your fault."

After a moment of hesitation, Chen Bin gently reached out and patted her delicate back.

"Did they do anything to you?"

"No, they just wouldn’t let me leave and insisted I admit to being a spy."

These words made Chen Bin even angrier.

He knew that Ye Pei was setting a trap for Liao Ruoji.

But thankfully, this clever girl hadn’t fallen into it.

After crying her heart out, Liao Ruoji noticed Chen Bin’s tired face and said awkwardly,

"I’m sorry for worrying you."

Cashing it in for a joke, Chen Bin retorted, "I stayed up all night looking for you yesterday. How are you going to make it up to me?"

"How do you want me to make it up to you?"

"Why not give me a kiss?"

Looking at Chen Bin’s handsome face, a faint blush spread across Liao Ruoji’s cheeks.

After deliberating for a moment, she leaned over and planted a quick kiss on his cheek.

Although Chen Bin often acted a little mischievous, he wasn’t a bad guy.

And being so good-looking, even someone as beautiful as Liao Ruoji couldn’t help but feel a little moved.

Back at the Qinghe Town guesthouse, Liao Ruoli didn’t even care about her injured foot when she saw Liao Ruoji.

She rushed into her sister’s arms, crying loudly.

"Sis, where have you been? Why didn’t you tell me anything?"

Liao Ruoji then recounted everything that had happened.

When Liao Ruoli learned that it was Ye Pei who had taken Liao Ruoji away, her pouting face grew furious.

"How dare he, the son of the County Committee secretary, act so recklessly? I bet that County Committee secretary isn’t a good person either!"

Liao Ruoji looked at Chen Bin with concern.

"But you hit Ye Pei. What if his dad comes after you for it?"

"Don’t worry, I can handle it."

Hearing that Chen Bin had slapped Ye Pei, Liao Ruoli clapped enthusiastically.

"Good! Well done! Xiao Chen, you have my full support!"

But it didn’t take long before she realized something was amiss.

"That guy took my sister away—could it be to get revenge on you?"

Clearing his throat softly, Chen Bin nodded slightly.

"That’s very possible."

"What the hell? If you two have a grudge, why drag my sister into it? You have to take responsibility for this!"

Seeing how quickly Liao Ruoli’s mood shifted, Chen Bin sighed lightly.

"What do you want me to do to take responsibility?"

"Uh... I haven’t thought of that yet. I’ll tell you when I figure it out."

Liao Ruoji tugged on Liao Ruoli’s sleeve.

"Chen Bin didn’t want me to get taken away either. Why are you acting like this?"

Pouting again, Liao Ruoli said, "I don’t care. He has to take responsibility!"

Chen Bin nodded and smiled as he responded,

"Alright, this time it was my fault for not watching over your sister closely enough. I’ll take responsibility!"

With that, the three of them went out for dinner.

Since Chen Bin hadn’t slept at all the night before, he fell into a deep, peaceful sleep as soon as he lay down.

The next morning, after driving to the county office, Chen Bin went straight to knock on Ye Hong’s door.

He felt it was necessary to address yesterday’s incident head-on to prevent Ye Hong from scheming behind his back.

"Secretary Ye, I have something to discuss with you."

Seeing Chen Bin, a flame of anger burned in Ye Hong’s chest.

Last night, when he saw the slap mark on Ye Pei’s face, his heart ached terribly.

He hadn’t expected Chen Bin, the one responsible, to have the audacity to come to him voluntarily.

Suppressing his fury, Ye Hong said in a low voice, "What is it? Speak."

"I hit Ye Pei yesterday, but there were extenuating circumstances. I hope you can understand."

"County Magistrate Chen, no matter the circumstances, hitting someone is wrong, don’t you think?"

Facing Ye Hong’s question, Chen Bin straightforwardly explained everything Ye Pei had done.

Hearing that his son had forcibly taken the young lady from the Imperial Capital, Ye Hong shivered with fear.

His anger cooled by more than half immediately.

However, he still said sternly, "While Ye Pei’s approach was indeed inappropriate, you can’t justify violence."

"You’re right, Secretary Ye. My actions to win favor from that young lady were inappropriate, and I accept responsibility."

With no more to say, Ye Hong could only wave Chen Bin away.

Soon after, Ye Pei was called into his office, and Ye Hong relayed everything to him.

When Ye Pei learned Chen Bin had not only hit him but also gone to Ye Hong to set the record straight, he was livid.

"Damn it, that son of a bitch Chen Bin just wanted to screw me over! If that bastard wasn’t the Deputy County Magistrate, I’d totally beat the shit out of him!"

Glaring at him, Ye Hong said in a cold tone,

"You’re just a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong. You got what you deserved."

"Dad, I’m your son! How can you side with outsiders?"

"Knock it off. That girl you dragged in is from the Imperial Capital and has a powerful family background. If you piss her off, you’ll be in serious trouble."

"I did it for Cai Lixia! Dad, you’re the County Committee secretary now—you’ve got to help me! You don’t want your son to miss out on marrying his wife, do you?"

Frowning deeply, Ye Hong seemed puzzled.

"Why are you so fixated on that girl from the Cai family? Do you really like her, or are you just looking for a thrill?"

"I really like her!"

Seeing the sincerity on Ye Pei’s face, Ye Hong sighed slightly.

"Alright, let me think of a way. But stay away from Chen Bin—you’re no match for him."

"So I’m just supposed to let those two slaps go?"

Shaking his head, a scheming glint flashed in Ye Hong’s small eyes.

"Of course not. I’ll handle him myself..."
