Chapter 391 I Might Have Too Many Strengths. It“s Not Strange If You Were To Fall For Me

“I had a crush on you?” Ruan Yang was stunned and looked as though she had seen a ghost. “That’s impossible.”

“What’s impossible? Didn’t you just say that... say that you liked me?” Upon recalling her praise for him and her confession, Li Shaobin felt embarrassed saying it himself. His handsome face became a little hot. “I might have too many strengths. It’s not strange if you were to fall for me.”

Ruan Yang was speechless. She suddenly had no idea how to broach the topic. “Let’s not stand outside. Go in first.”

She didn’t want to be stared at by so many people. She walked into the suite and took the bouquet of red roses, throwing it straight into the bin.

“Aye, why did you throw my flowers away?” Li Shaobin took it that she was jealous but she couldn’t just throw the flowers away. That was too unreasonable. He hadn’t even agreed to be in a relationship with her. “Ruan Yang, I know I’m great and I have a lot of strengths but... you can’t force a relationship. Besides, that was too sudden. I still can’t...”

“Everything I said just now was fake.” Ruan Yang interrupted him with a smile. “That woman just now had a motive for getting close to you. I merely helped you humiliate her so that you could save face.”

“Huh?” Li Shaobin was stunned. He felt as though someone had poured a bucket of cold water over his head. Immediately after that, he was angry. He was so angry that his body trembled. “Ruan Yang, you did it on purpose to prank me? Do you know what you just did?”

Ruan Yang’s gaze was filled with sympathy. “Did that woman go out earlier to pick up a call? I happened to overhear her conversation. She said she’s a spy from the police and she was trying to make use of your feelings to get close to you. She also said many humiliating things about you over the phone. I think she’s pretty proud, so I tried to help you get your face back.”

“You’re saying she’s a spy?” Li Shaobin slammed the table angrily. “F*ck, that woman dared to toy with me?”

“You’ll find out once you investigate it,” Ruan Yang said lightly. “She seemed to be trying to look for some clues by getting close to you, but you haven’t brought her home or to Li Hall, so she had no chance to do so.”

“Why didn’t you tell me that? I could’ve f*cking made sure she didn’t make it out of this place.” Li Shaobin’s face turned sinister. He was actually fooled by a mere woman. If he didn’t teach that Luo Xiru a lesson, he wouldn’t be a Li.

“Telling you that straight to your face in front of her would make you lose face even more.” Ruan Yang glanced at him helplessly. “She thought you were no good, so I had to make her understand that there are still a lot of women out there who would like you. That way, she would feel like nothing. Do you want to be dumped after being cheated by a woman or would you rather be the first to dump the woman?”

Li Shaobin was stunned. He finally understood that her sudden kiss and confession were all to help him regain face.

It was all fake. It was all a farce.

Although she did it to help him, still... how could she lie to him like that?

He even took her for real. Annoying. He really thought there were a lot of women who liked him.

His face reddened from anger and he glared at her, looking as though he was about to eat her up.

It was the first time Ruan Yang ever saw him get this mad. She shrank a little and looked at him without blinking.

Li Shaobin’s chest rose and fell with anger, but he could neither scold her nor blame her for it. He didn’t really want to say anything to express his gratitude, so in the end, he could only snort and leave after grabbing his phone.

...

Ruan Yang spaced out for a while, shrugged and went back to her suite. Changqing had long finished all the dishes, including the rice. She even gave Song Chuyi a call. When she saw Ruan Yang finally returning, she said angrily, “Ruan Yang, you went to the toilet for too long. You made me feel like I was eating alone tonight.”

“Sorry, I had a tummy ache,” Ruan Yang said apologetically.

Changqing remained glum for a while, but seeing how Ruan Yang was silent and thinking about how their relationship wasn’t like it was before because of Ruan Yang’s amnesia, she was worried that Ruan Yang would ignore her because of this, so she quickly said, “Do you need to get any medicine for your tummy ache?”

“No.” Ruan Yang started eating. She took a few bites and suddenly asked, “Changqing, have I really not liked anyone before?”

Changqing’s chopsticks shook a little. She lifted her head to meet Ruan Yang’s shockingly sharp gaze. She calmed down and tried hard to not give herself away. “Nope.”

“That’s impossible.” Ruan Yang smiled. “How could I not have liked anyone in eight years? Aren’t we best friends? I should’ve told you something.”

Changqing felt guilty. “You definitely liked someone, but you loved to keep everything to yourself and didn’t tell us anything, so how would we know? Aiya, er... it’s getting late. I should get going. I still have to feed Yan Wo. Are you done?”

“I’m about there. Let’s go then.” Ruan Yang picked up her bag.

———————————-

Li Shaobin called Hu Zhi as he drove at lightning speed, saying angrily, “You better f*cking investigate Luo Xiru’s background thoroughly before the sun rises tomorrow. If you can’t get anything, I’ll chop you up and feed you to Charlotte.”

Hu Zhi shuddered. What was going on? Wasn’t he happily going on dates with that little female cop? Could it be that he was rejected by her today? He asked uneasily, “Isn’t Luo Xiru a policewoman?”

“She is a policewoman but she’s also a spy sent by the police.” Li Shaobin clenched his teeth. He even had thoughts of killing people. “Which motherf*cker was it? He must’ve grown some huge*ss balls to get a spy to investigate me. I will be sure to do him in.”

He hung up angrily.

...

At the Li Household, Charlotte barked and ran over to Li Shaobin with her tail wagging behind her. Li Shaobin pointed at her and scolded: “You better get lost; I’m in a bad mood today. You better watch out and see if I don’t make a stew out of you.”

Although Charlotte couldn’t understand him, she knew her owner must be unhappy. She hung her head low with grievance and whimpered.

“Why did you scold Charlotte?” Grandma Li walked over unhappily. She picked Charlotte up as though Charlotte was her treasure. “You’re throwing tantrums again after getting mad outside.”

“I am mad.” Li Shaobin angrily walked towards Li Zhongchi, who was watching television programs while cuddling his wife. “Big Brother, what’s wrong with you? The police even planted a spy around me to investigate me.”

“Spy?” Li Zhongchi raised his sharp brows. “Who?”

“That female cop.” Li Shaobin slammed the coffee table angrily. “Luo Xiru. She cheated my feelings and even said many things to humiliate me behind my back over the phone.”

“What? So after all that, the female cop was actually a spy?” Grandma Li was plainly angry and also very hurt. She even thought she would finally be able to watch her grandson find a partner this year. “This is too much. How could she cheat our Binbin’s feelings?”

Li Shaobin really couldn’t get over it because of his ego. He explained stiffly, “Grandma, actually... I didn’t really like her that much. I felt she was just okay. It doesn’t matter whether or not we get together.”

“How does that not matter?” He Mingshan came over. “I heard Hu Zhi say that you were even going to confess to her tonight.”

Li Shaobin blushed and couldn’t wait to tear Hu Zhi apart for causing him to lose face. “What confession? Does your son look like someone who would confess? I was just playing around. With just her looks, I wouldn’t have even set my eyes on her, but no matter what, she actually had an ulterior motive and that’s what I cannot forgive.”

“Right, you can’t just forgive her.” Grandma Li nodded firmly. “Our Binbin hasn’t done anything too illegal aside from getting into occasional fights, created the Li Hall to scare people, speed, and run red lights. How could the police send a spy to harm him? Zhongchi, what’s going on? Don’t you have a good relationship with the police?”

Grandpa Li said angrily, “If he was any normal person, he would’ve been long taught a lesson for doing all those things. You’re the ones spoiling him.”

“He didn’t even commit murder or arson.” Grandma Li rolled her eyes at the old man.

“There was a recent change in the police chief. Maybe he was just overly-enthusiastic after taking on the new role,” Li Zhongchi said softly. “I will get someone to go over and find out.”

...

Li Zhongchi got someone to investigate on the police’s side, so he found out the reason within an hour. “The police found a drug-making factory recently and I heard that the people there said that the biggest trafficking task was carried out by Li Hall, so the police suspect you.”

“I don’t touch things like drugs.” Li Shaobin frowned. “The business I do might be a little unreasonable but I would never touch what I’m not supposed to touch.”

Li Zhongchi nodded. He clearly understood what kind of person his brother was; otherwise, the family wouldn’t have allowed him to continue on like that. “The police said so. Then there must be a rotten apple in Li Hall. You’d better go back and investigate things properly. Don’t get yourself involved in this. I heard from the people over at Director Han’s side that the new police chief has a strong backing and he probably sent a spy to get close to you because he hasn’t liked the Li Family for a while.”

“Preposterous. In my opinion, this new police chief is just trying to make some trouble with us on purpose.” Grandpa Li snorted. “He even used such underhanded means. Other than Shaobin, who’s a little of a troublemaker, the rest of the people in the Li Family are all upright and aboveboard.”

“It’s okay,” Li Zhongchi said nonchalantly. “Do we still need to fear that someone like that would have something against us? Just leave it to Shaobin to handle it, but you better not go overboard.”

“Don’t worry. I’m the best when it comes to handling things like this.” Li Shaobin clenched his teeth with hatred.
