Chapter 412: From Now On, You’re My Brother!

“Hm,” Mu Xichen casually said as he looked at a policeman. “Officer Fang, can you explain to me the offense committed by Chi Hailang?”

Office Fang was stunned. He pointed at Chi Hailang and asked, “Is he one of your guys?”

“He’s a friend.”

“Oh.” Officer Fang nodded and gave a summary in a low voice. “Zhou Huiyong is still in the hospital. He’s quite badly injured. If he’s fixed on pursuing the matter, the accused is looking at three to five years of jail time.”

That was the first time that they realized how harsh the sentence might be.

Chi Hailang already expected some sort of civil detention as a punishment. He was willing to pay that price and continue the vicious cycle.

Besides, he had already beaten up that scumbag!

However, upon hearing that he could be jailed, fear took root in his heart, and Chi Hailang started to lose his composure.

Three to five years of jail?

Chi Hailang thought as his face started to turn pale. With a hint of panic in his voice, he reached out to grab Li Beinian’s arm and said anxiously, “Beinian...”

Having expected the consequences, Li Beinian closed her eyes to avoid looking at him.

Chi Hailang was only nineteen. After enrolling in Guang City Art University this year, he had already won several awards and was deemed as a rising star in his faculty.

If he were to be jailed now, his future would be gone.

Li Beinian’s eyes turned red as she thought about it. She twisted Chi Hailang’s ear and scolded. “Is there something wrong with you? Hitting that little rascal is going to cost you your future!”

Knowing that he was in the wrong, Chi Hailang took the punishment in silence.

“Who are you calling a little rascal! You better mind your words!” Mrs. Zhou screamed.

Li Beinian turned to Madam Zhou with anger in her eyes. Just as she was about to lash out at her, someone stopped her.

A low voice came from the back. “Mrs. Zhou, let’s have a cup of coffee.”

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhou replied with a face full of disgust, “Who are you to have coffee with me?”

“Ma’am, the person whom you are speaking to holds the position of Major General in the Xia Nation army. He’s the captain of the special forces. Last year, his team helped us settle two riots. During the South Gate plaza incident, he managed to sneak into the riot to rescue over a hundred civilians. I believe you were one of the rescuees,” Officer Fang said.

Realizing this, Mrs. Zhou was shocked. She blurted out, “Major General Mu Xichen?”

...

Mu Xichen and Mrs. Zhou then went out for half an hour. When she came back, Mrs. Zhou agreed not to pursue the matter legally.

However, she wanted to be compensated financially. Li Beinian then proposed to pay for the medical bills and psychological injuries.

“Please, I don’t think you can afford it. Major General Mu has paid me a million bucks already. You can pay him instead.” Mrs. Zhou scoffed.

With a look of condemnation, she picked up her bag to leave. At the same time, Mu Xichen walked in.

Mrs. Zhou softened her tone when she saw Mu Xichen and said, “I won’t pursue the matter any further because of you, Major General Mu. However, you guys better pray that my son will recover without any hiccups. If not, I will never forgive Chi Hailang.”

“Your son is blessed by the heavens. I’m sure he will be fine. There won’t be a next time. I swear.” Li Beininan quickly reassured her.

Chi Hailang held his head down in silence during the entire period.

“Hmph!” Mrs. Zhou walked off.

“Let’s go.” Mu Xichen looked at Chi Hailang’s beaten up face. “Let’s get you to the hospital.”

Upon hearing this, Chi Hailang could no longer contain his emotions. He held onto Mu Xichen’s arms and cried gratefully. “Brother Big Lock, from now on, you’re my sworn brother!”
