Chapter 223: Arrested
Lu Beixiao glared at him. “Comrade Du Jun, you should feel honored that Qiao Qiao ate the shrimp you peeled! It was Qiao Qiao who forced me to meet you today. Otherwise, you would not even have the chance to be a third wheel!”
Uncle Du Jun was speechless. Indeed, it was his honor to peel the shrimps for his nephew and future niece-in-law!!!
Nevertheless, Comrade Du Jun’s sincere heart was hurt! His Xiao Xiao did not even look at him once and was only looking at Boss Qiao Qiao!
He came all the way from N Town to treat them to a meal, but it turned out that he was here to peel the shells for his future niece-in-law!
In the VIP room next door, Qin Lan was treating Gu Changfeng and his wife to dinner.
“Mr. Gu, till now, I have no idea who in the Lu family I have offended! My restaurant is still not allowed to operate! It’s so worrying!” Qin Lan sighed.
“Sister Qin, relax! Come and have a drink! I heard that Xiao is back already. Sooner or later, we will be meeting their family to talk about the engagement of our children! I will try to help you figure it out then!” Gu Changfeng said as he poured some wine for Qin Lan. Mrs. Gu also smiled.
“Haih, I really envy you guys. It’s hard to find a perfect man like Xiao!” Qin Lan flattered, though it was also the truth. It was such a big profit for the Gu family!
At that moment, the door was opened by someone.
Qin Lan’s eyes lit up when she saw Lu Beixiao in his casual attire; she completely forgot about the time she got scolded by him.
This Lu Beixiao looked handsome even in his casual clothes; he looked a little like a ruffian. He looked so manly!
“Oh! Speak of the devil, and he appears!” Qin Lan quickly stood up and said with a smile.
“Mr. Gu, Mrs. Gu, this is such a surprise!”
Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu almost could not recognize Lu Beixiao. While they were still momentarily stunned, Qin Lan was already in front of Lu Beixiao.
“Beixiao, I did not lie to you the last time. I am close to your parents-in-law!” Qin Lan stood in front of Lu Beixiao and smiled flatteringly. Lu Beixiao, who was wearing a baseball cap, had a cold look on his face.
“My parents-in-law?” Lu Beixiao asked while raising his lips.
“Xiao! I am Aunty Liao! Yanzi’s mother!” Mrs. Gu walked towards him and smiled. Gu Changfeng followed after and gave Lu Beixiao a cigarette, but he did not take it.
Qin Lan was confused. Was Lu Beixiao not here to look for his parents-in-law?
“Xiao, have you taken your dinner? Hurry up and take a seat. Uncle will go get the menu!” Even though Lu Beixiao did not take the cigarette, Gu Changfeng continued to flatter him.
“No, thanks! Madam Qin, what did you mean by parents-in-law?” Lu Beixiao crossed his arms in front of his chest.
“Beixiao, I was referring to your future parents-in-law! I was just congratulating Mr. and Mrs. Gu on having such a good son-in-law. They are so lucky!” Qin Lan continued to flatter.
Lu Beixiao raised his brows. “I think you might have misunderstood; they are not my parents-in-law.” He raised his voice and said loudly.
Qin Lan was dumbfounded, while Gu Changfeng and his wife were very embarrassed.
At that time, a few more people came into the VIP room.
“Master Lu!” One of the judicial officers approached Lu Beixiao in his uniform.
Lu Beixiao nodded in acknowledgment but said nothing.
“Qin Lan, we suspect that you were involved in a corruption and bribery case. You are being arrested! Please follow us!” The officer said seriously as he showed Qin Lan the arrest warrant.
Meanwhile, the other two officers handcuffed her.
“I… I… You guys… What do you guys mean?!” Qin Lan was still in a daze.
