Chapter 314 – Arrested! (2/2)
Xie Huilan laughed and shook her head. “How do I know?”
“Sis, can you help me find out more about him? Please…”
“Don’t you know a lot of people too? Go and find out yourself.” Xie Huilan hangs up after chatting for a while more. Huang Li and Liang Chengpeng were almost done with the discussion, and Xie Huilan put down her phone on the table. “The challenges against Seoul’s Taekwondo schools had blown up. Are there any Korean tour groups visiting our County? Chief Liang, you must get your men to watch over those Korean businesses like Taekwondo schools, etc. in our County. We do not want anyone to create trouble here.”
Hu Silian knocked on the door and entered with a set of documents for Xie Huilan.
Liang Chengpeng nodded. “A Korean brand boutique was smashed up in Fenzhou City a while ago, and we don’t have such incidents in our County. But I will keep a lookout for it.”
Huang Li laughed. “I wonder who this person that challenged seven Taekwondo schools by himself is. Hahaha…. Many of my staff are saying they want to learn Wushu because of this incident.” Huang Li smiled wearily. “My nephew visited me yesterday to ask me if there are any martial arts schools in Fenzhou City.”
Xie Huilan and Liang Chengpeng laughed.
The whole nation, including Yan Tai County, is talking about what Dong Xuebing did. People are proud to know someone had kicked the Koreans’ asses, and it’s been years since something like this happened.
But in the government service, the leaders are not supposed to comment or join in with the discussions.
Xie Huilan looked at her watch and smiled. “It’s lunchtime now. Let’s go for lunch together.”
“It’s 12.30pm.” Huang Li and Liang Chengpeng stood up.
“Oh…” Xie Huilan asked. “Is Xiao Dong back to work?”
Liang Chengpeng replied. “He had applied two weeks off from work to bring his friend overseas for plastic surgery and should be back soon.”
Huang Li laughed. “Xiao Dong went to Korea?”
“Yes.” Liang Chengpeng replied. “I think he is in Seoul.”
No one noticed what Liang Chengpeng said at the moment, and as they walked out of the County Government Building, Xie Huilan stopped suddenly. “… Xiao Dong is in Seoul?!”
“Yes. He did mention this when he applied for leave.” Liang Chengpeng replied, and he paused.
Huang Li and Hu Silian looked at Mayor Xie’s and Chief Liang’s expression and realized Dong Xuebing is in Seoul!
All of them stopped in front of the County Government Building. After a pause of about two seconds, Liang Chengpeng took a deep breath. “I think it should not be him… even if Xiao Dong is rash and impulsive, but challenging seven Taekwondo schools by himself… should not… should not…” Liang Chengpeng could not continue. Even he cannot convince himself with what he said.
If it’s another government staff, they will never do such things.
This is for sure.
But all of them knew Dong Xuebing well. Others might not do this, but Dong Xuebing will definitely do it! This guy is reckless and ignores all the rules and regulations when blood rushes to his head! When they think of what happened in Seoul… Damn! This is what Dong Xuebing will do! Other than Dong Xuebing, no one else will do something so shocking and is so good at fighting.
Liang Chengpeng took a deep breath. “I will contact the Korean side to find out where is Dong Xuebing now.”
Liang Chengpeng tried calling Dong Xuebing’s phone, but the line could not get through. After a while, Liang Chengpeng got Yu Meixia’s phone number and called her. What Liang Chengpeng found out from Yu Meixia made him speechless.
Xie Huilan looks at Liang Chengpeng. “How is it?”
“It’s Xiao Dong.” The corner of Liang Chengpeng’s lips twitched. “The Chinese tourist reported on the papers is him.”
Hu Silian’s eyes almost pop out. She never expects Dong Xuebing is the person where the whole nation is talking about!
Huang Li rubbed the center of his brows. “This Xiao Dong… he just can’t stop creating trouble. I thought he will stay low when he is overseas, but he created a bigger mess.” Huang Li had been working in the Government service for decades and had never met a bigger trouble-maker than Dong Xuebing. Arresting the Japanese investors, offending Party Secretary Xiang… Huang Li could not count the number of troubles Dong Xuebing created.
Xie Huilan said. “Contact Xiao Dong and ask him to return immediately.”
Liang Chengpeng replied. “Xiao Dong is arrested by the local police and is uncontactable.”
“Arrested?” Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes. “… Is challenging the Taekwondo schools illegal?”
Liang Chengpeng knew this incident will not end so easily. After all, Dong Xuebing is not in China, and the Korean Police can just accuse him of a crime and lock him up for months. “I will try to contact our people in Korea.”
An hour later.
News of Chief Dong challenging Seoul’s Taekwondo schools spread in Yan Tai County.
Everyone who heard of what Dong Xuebing did was dumbfounded.
Luan Xiaoping was marking her students’ homework at school when other teachers told her about this news. She almost fainted from anger. She had not expected her son to create such a big mess in Korean, and even shock the whole nation!
The Officers in the County’s Public Security Bureau were in awe of Chief Dong.
Single-handedly challenging seven Taekwondo schools to get back for the overseas students and Chinese is too daring. He is the role model of all Public Security officers!
Dong Xuebing is terrific!
So, the Chinese tourist is Chief Dong!
As Yan Tai County is still recovering from the shocking news, Xie Huilan sat in her office and made a phone call on her mobile phone. “Hello, Uncle Qi? I’m Huilan… Haha… how are you? That’s great… how’s Auntie?” After exchanging some pleasantries, Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and said. “Uncle Qi, I need your assistance… Yes… I have a friend who is arrested by Seoul’s Police… yes… it’s about the challenges on Taekwondo schools… Dong Xuebing… Can Foreign Affairs do something to help him? I am not sure which station he is locked up in… Yes… Xiao Dong’s actions are not against the law. His challenges on the Taekwondo schools are considered sparring, and both parties agreed. How can the Korean Police arrest him?”
……
Korea, Seoul.
Police Station.
Dong Xuebing suppressed his anger as he stares at the skinny officer in front of him. “I will say this one more time! Don’t push your luck! It’s been three hours! When are you releasing me?!”
The skinny officer laughed. “If you don’t confess to your crimes, you will be locked up for the rest of this year!”
Dong Xuebing shows him a thumbs up. “Fine. I dare you to lock me up forever!”
Ring… ring… ring….
The skinny officer pointed at Dong Xuebing and answered the phone. “Chief.”
Dong Xuebing can hear a middle-aged man’s voice. “How is that Chinese guy?”
“I am interrogating him now. Don’t worry… these few days, we will make him…”
That man interrupts the skinny officer. “You don’t need to interrogate him anymore and release him immediately.”
The skinny officer paused for a second and doesn’t understand what was going on. “Release him? This morning, you said…” This Chief was the one who ordered Dong Xuebing’s arrest.
The Chief is in a bad mood and shouted. “Just release him now! The embassy’s vehicle will be arriving in five minutes! The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic of China’s Deputy Minister had called the higher-ups to ask for Dong Xuebing! You dare to still keep him locked up?!”
Foreign Affairs wants the release of this Chinese guy?
The embassy’s vehicle is coming to fetch him?
The skinny officer’s heart skipped a beat, and knew this Chinese guy is a nobody! If not, China’s Foreign Affairs will not interfere and knows his name!
The skinny officer is scared as this incident involves Foreign Affairs. After hanging up, he said something to his fellow officers, before turning to Dong Xuebing. “You can go now. Your embassy’s car is waiting for you outside.”
Embassy?
Dong Xuebing immediately know it was Xie Huilan who had helped him. He looks at that officer. “You are releasing me now?! Hah! I thought you are going to lock me up for a year or two? Ah?! What did you say earlier?!”
The skinny officer kept quiet.
