Chapter 52 - Go Shopping.
Leaving the clean to Harvey and his folks, Yang dao grabbed Yurika’s wrist gently and walked out of the police station with her. His steps were calm and steady. He raised his head to look up at the sky. It was as if the three choppers were waiting for him to look up. They all neatly landed on the road.
The yellow-haired boy was already gone. Otherwise, he would have died of fright watching such a scene. Who would expect them to have framed an orphan girl whose best friend is a tycoon?
Yurika who was stunned woke up from the daze only to get a bigger surprise. Four men walked towards them from the sides. They all wore nice suits and looked sharp. They bowed to Yang Dao slightly. One of them stepped up and said, “Young Master, we are the guards, Madam Feng arranged for you. It might be dangerous to wander alone outside. We will escort you. Please pardon the intrusion.”
Yang Dao had no problem, with a nod he agreed to the guards. Then as he walked toward the chopper he asked them, “What is the danger?” his voice was poise.
The guard hesitated and Yang Dao said with a smile, “Come on, I won’t tell sister Yun. Tell me, that way I will be more alert.”
The guard spoke softly, “Sir, it is just a precaution. Please bear with us.”
Yang Dao chuckled as he shook his head. The pilot of the chopper was standing with the back door, slid open for him. He asked, “Where to Young Master?”
Yang Dao sighed and said, “Rika, where is the best shopping place in this city?”
Yurika was unresponsive, the boy shook her with his hands. Only then did she react, “Dao, stop, I am having vertigo.” her tone was irritated.
Yang Dao stopped, with a sunny smile he asked, “Where is the best, high brand shopping place in the city?”
Yurika muttered, “Crown Shopping Mall, 1st wonder street.” she replied in a low voice. Yang Dao glanced at the pilot who nodded with a smile. Yang Dao smiled back, he pushed Yurika up to sit down in the chopper. Then he turned back to one of his guards and asked, “Can you do me a favor?”
The guard gave him an instant reply, “Anything under my power Young Master.”
Yang Dao shook his head as he spoke, “Nothing that big, sir. I just need you to tell Mr. Harvey in the station to make sure that the dean and the faculty of Onyx City University are informed about Yurika being innocent. I don’t want anyone to make an unnecessary fuss.”
The guard nodded with a smile when this young boss talked to him so politely. It was said that President Feng Yun’s brother was really polite but today they also witnessed it. He happily left to deliver the message to Mr. Harvey inside.
These people sure were naive. Yang Dao was only acting with them. There were two motives. First, to not do anything that embarrasses Feng Yun in front of her staff. Second, to make sure that everyone works to the best of their capabilities. It may sound cruel but this was Yang Dao’s nature. He is a nice guy and all, but his fake smile game is very strong.
He would never open up to anyone unless they are really close to him. All the smiles he passed on except those to Yurika today, were fake. So he is even more clever than Feng Yun, herself. At some distance, on a high-rise building, three people stood with binoculars in their hands. Their eyes trained on Yang Dao.
…
One guy spoke in a deep voice, “This assignment to protect the national treasure is easier than I thought it would be.”
Another person spoke, “Is he really worth for us Tiger Fangs to be protecting him?”
The man who stood with his hands behind the back snapped, “Shut your mouth. I don’t want you to question the general’s orders. Do you get that? If the general thinks this is good then this is good.” his voice was cold, brimming with the intent to kill.
The man who just asked the question sighed and asked, “Boss, why do you never question the general? Is it because she saved your life?”
The cold-voiced man snorted and said, “You will never understand that until you rise in your ranks, boy. Now focus on your task.”
Suddenly the quiet man flinched, he mumbled, “Did he just sense us scouting him?”
The other two people picked up their binoculars and found Yang Dao squinting his eyes in their direction, but then the boy just shrugged off and got on to the chopper. The three people were shocked, confused, and unsure about what just happened.

The guard returned after completing his task given by Yang Dao. The chopper could carry six people in the back but where do these guys have the guts to take a ride with their boss. So they all drove a heavy all-terrain vehicle. The car was modified to fit the urban streets and the performance has also been adjusted.
The chopper flew up and the car followed it on the road. The three people on the roof of a high-rise building all vanished as soon as the chopper flew up as well. It was as if they were never present there.
…
Inside the chopper, Yurika did not glance at the scenery, she held Yang Dao’s tender sculpted face in her hands while she locked her eyes with him. She asked, “Who are you? What did you do to my Dao? Are you an alien? Did you eat him inside out and then took his skin as a suit? I tell you, if anything happened to my Dao, I will make you pay.”
Yang Dao sighed and flicked his fingers on her forehead. He spoke, “Are you again watching those crappy illogical movies? Rika, what do I do with you? I will call sister Tina, she will fix you. This time it is the heights. What would have happened if…”
Yurika rubbed her forehead and said, “I am giving up on dating anyone. Cunning people. Also, you tell me. Why are you so scared now?”
Yang Dao replied in a casual tone, “Phoenix group’s president, Feng Yun, adopted me as her younger brother.”
Yurika was surprised but then she squinted her eyes, “Younger brother, or white face brother? Tell me Dao are you selling your body for money? You should have waited to grow old, at such a young age it will be harmful to your body you know.”
Yang Dao almost spurted out a fountain of blood at this. He pointed his finger at the girl in front of him and said in anger, “You annoying woman, your head is filled with cheap shit. I am calling sister Tina as soon as we touch down. You… You… just wait. I won’t talk to you. Humph.” he was a child after all. Yurika’s words made him explode.
The chopper flew through the sky and soon a shiny building came into view. It was very pretty. The top was shaped like a crown glided with gems and shiny stones. Every single inch of this exterior must have worth hundreds of thousands of carats. The building below the crown was straight and simple.
The designer blended simplicity and royalty. It was seamless. The chopper landed on a helipad in front of the mall parking. As a high-end mall, the owner added a helipad in the parking place. It was just a whim, but who knew one day a Chopper would really land here.
The mall was not closed yet so a lot of people saw a chopper landing. They immediately took out their mobiles to record the scene.
“Hey is it a star who came to our city?” an 80 point beauty spoke excitedly.
“Bah, since when did the stars became so rich to use a chopper to travel?” a young man beside her scoffed.
Similar discussions were going on around. The pilot opened the door and stepped down. Then he opened the back door of the chopper. Yang Dao stepped out after he adjusted his tie. On his face was a face that only allowed his eyes and forehead to be visible. He did not help Yurika to get off like a gentleman should because he was still angry with her.
He fished out his phone and dialed a call to Sister Tina. The call connected in a jiffy. Yang Dao spoke, “Hello, sister Tina… Yeah, I am fine… Do you know what Yurika did this time?… Yes, she dated some jerk, got framed in drug peddling… I saved her, don’t worry… I will ask her to go back to bell city for a week after she graduates… You must discipline her, sister Tina… She called me a flesh trader after I saved her and told her that President Feng adopted me as her brother… Her brain is filled with shit…Yes, I am passing it to her.” he turned and shoved the phone in Yurika’s hand who flinched in fright.
With her hands shaking the girl put the phone over her ear and spoke in a small voice, “Hello…” she did not even get the time to finish the greeting when she was bombarded with scolding remarks.
The crowd was about to come over from the side and create a mess when an all-terrain vehicle stopped nearby. Four burly men quickly came towards Yang Dao and a strong pressure radiated from them. The crowd suddenly froze. Soon, they dispersed with some dissatisfaction.
Yang Dao took Yurika inside the mall with a gloating expression hidden under his mask. Yurika did not dare to put the phone down. She was being scolded so hard that she wanted to find a hole to hide but the other party was the person who looked after them from childhood till now. She was more than a mother to them so how could she rebuke or run away.
…
On the campus of Onyx University, on the basis of the proof, Harvey submitted the police arrested, four suspects, named, Clide Bolton, Henry Bolton, Melany Harington, and Julia Stevens. Clide was the yellow-haired boy. Henry was Yurika’s boyfriend and cousin to Clide, While Julia and Melany were Yurika’s roommates who in exchange for money planted the drugs in her cupboard.
Other than that, a corpse was being loaded in the ambulance on the side. The corpse was Inspector Haward, who came to Clide to inform him what has happened, but in rage Clide accidentally killed him with a vase to his head. Julia and Melany turned witnesses, returned all the money they got to save themselves from prison, and also losing their degree qualifications.
As for how Harvey did it?…
