Chapter 1911: An Unexpected Reversal
Rebirth of a Perfect Future · 第1911章 意外的反转
The most terrifying and least desirable people to provoke in this world are probably the young.
Hot-blooded youths of fifteen or sixteen, or in their early twenties, often act without thinking; one moment they may be all smiles, the next they might draw a knife.
Zhang Qian and Zhao Fusheng were both well aware of this.
So, when they saw that the few young people had clearly just finished drinking, Zhang Qian directly shielded Zhao Fusheng behind him and whispered, "Let's go."
The two had already said what they needed to; there was no reason to stay.
Zhao Fusheng nodded: "Okay."
He wasn't stupid; he could tell that this group had drunk a lot.
Even though there were bodyguards around, Zhao Fusheng still didn't want to cause trouble.
The reason was simple: it would be embarrassing...
Given his status, getting into a verbal altercation with a few young people wouldn't be a face-saving matter. Zhao Fusheng wouldn't allow such a thing to happen.
The two turned to leave, but just as they were about to go, Zhao Fusheng heard a girl's voice from among the group.
"No, let me go, I don't want to go!"
"Huh?"
Zhao Fusheng stopped in his tracks and looked over with some surprise.
"You..."
Zhang Qian naturally heard the sound too, frowned, glanced at Zhao Fusheng, and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"What do you think?"
Zhao Fusheng smiled: "We can't just stand by and watch."
"You go first."
Zhang Qian thought for a moment and said to Zhao Fusheng, "I'll handle it."
His thinking was simple: no matter what happened, there was no need for Zhao Fusheng to get involved; he would deal with it himself.
Zhao Fusheng nodded: "Alright."
With that, he prepared to leave.
"What are you looking at!"
Just as Zhao Fusheng was about to go, he heard an annoyed voice from the table of young people.
He didn't pay much attention, smiled, and said to Zhang Qian, "Find out what's going on. I feel like that girl isn't willing."
Zhao Fusheng certainly didn't believe that every man and woman out at this hour were saints.
But the problem was that this group seemed very young, and especially that girl seemed unwilling. Naturally, Zhao Fusheng had to ask.
He wasn't a do-gooder, but he wasn't so cold-blooded as to ignore something happening right in front of him.
Zhang Qian nodded and walked toward the group.
"Are you all together with her?"
Zhang Qian approached the few young people and asked.
"Who are you?"
The speaker was a chubby guy of about seventeen or eighteen, not short, with a round face that looked quite cute.
But at this moment, the cute-looking chubby guy reeked of alcohol.
Clearly, he had drunk a lot.
Zhang Qian frowned and asked again, "Do you know her well?"
As he spoke, he looked at the girl who was already slumped over and raised his voice: "Little girl, do you know them well?"
"Ah?"
The girl lifted her head, looking completely dazed.
Clearly, she was very drunk!
Zhao Fusheng didn't bother with more words and raised his voice to Zhang Qian: "Take her away."
No matter the reason, this group was obviously up to no good; there was no need to stay.
Zhang Qian nodded, glanced at the young people, and said, "If I were you, I'd let her go now."
"Who the hell do you think you are?"
Clearly, Zhao Fusheng and Zhang Qian's goodwill was not appreciated.
The leading fat guy directly shouted, "Beat them!"
The other four immediately lunged at Zhao Fusheng and Zhang Qian.
And then...
They were instantly floored!
Are you kidding? Not to mention the group of bodyguards, just Zhang Qian alone—he had never let his martial arts skills slack over the years.
Back when he first met Zhao Fusheng, he had beaten two robbers into submission, let alone these unarmed guys relying solely on their youth.
Moreover, they had been drinking.
In no time, they were all knocked to the ground.
"You, if you've got the guts, kill me! Otherwise, I'll fucking kill you!"
Even after being knocked down, the fat guy still looked defiant, scowling and cursing.
"Check on the girl."
Zhao Fusheng didn't even bother to acknowledge the guy.
A defeated dog has no right to bark.
Zhang Qian nodded, waved his hand, and someone quickly came over to check on the girl, then looked up: "She's been drugged..."
Drugged?
Zhao Fusheng's face immediately darkened.
To be honest, this kind of nightlife was normal. Even Tan Kaixuan, with all his wealth, occasionally lingered in nightclubs.
If not for meeting Tong Xiaoya, he would have been a playboy in the US.
Playing around is one thing, but you can't trifle with a girl's honor.
If something happened to the girl, wouldn't that ruin her life?
Waving his hand, Zhao Fusheng said, "Call the police."
At this point, everything else was pointless. The girl was already disoriented; if he and Zhang Qian hadn't encountered this, she might have been taken away by those young men.
"You, you dare!"
The young man shouted loudly, "My father is Li Qingshan!"
Li Qingshan?
Zhao Fusheng was taken aback, feeling the name was familiar.
Then he remembered: wasn't Li Qingshan a famous singer?
You see, a singer and a pop star are different.
The former might not earn as much as the latter, but in terms of social status, the former could leave the latter in the dust.
For example, at least in terms of official recognition, being a singer is a respectable profession. But being a pop star is just so-so.
To put it bluntly, anyone can be a pop star; even a music enthusiast can become one. But to become a singer, you need at least a certain level of skill.
And Li Qingshan was undoubtedly a renowned singer in China.
Of course, what impressed Zhao Fusheng most about Teacher Li wasn't just his classic songs, but also the fact that he seemed to have married his own female student...
Wait, could it be?
Zhao Fusheng's gaze sharpened as he looked at the fat guy on the ground.
Come to think of it, it was possible.
"Forget it, you handle it."
Zhao Fusheng waved his hand and said to Zhang Qian, "I'm leaving first."
Even though Li Qingshan was involved, Zhao Fusheng didn't think it was a big deal.
The law applies to everyone, even the prince; Li Qingshan was no emperor.
Zhang Qian naturally had no objection. In his view, whether Li Qingshan was a famous singer or not, his son doing such a thing was his own fault; how could he shield him?
Zhao Fusheng left without knowing what kind of dark secrets his act of bravery would uncover.
...
...
The next day, when Zhao Fusheng got up, he received a call from Zhang Qian.
"That Li Qingshan's wife is really something."
Even the good-tempered Zhang Qian couldn't help complaining over the phone: "I've never seen such an unreasonable woman."
"What happened?"
Zhao Fusheng was surprised: "Did you meet her?"
"No."
Zhang Qian said, "I took the person to the police station yesterday, and today the station called to say that they've turned the tables and accused us of deliberately framing them..."
"What?"
Zhao Fusheng was stunned.
He never expected things to turn out like this.
"Framing?"
Zhao Fusheng laughed in anger: "How is that possible? Who said so?"
"Teacher Li Qingshan's wife brought a lawyer to the station, and somehow it became a story that our two groups were fighting and then we framed her son."
Zhang Qian said helplessly, "Now the station can't do anything. They don't have surveillance footage, and after the girl woke up, she said she didn't know us..."
"Hmph..."
Zhao Fusheng let out a cold laugh.
He really hadn't expected such a reversal.
Originally, he thought that an old artist would have higher moral standards and wouldn't condone his son doing such a thing.
But to his surprise, this singer couple had given him a surprise.
Yes, a surprise.
"What should we do?"
Zhang Qian said helplessly.
Having his good deed turned into a fight left him speechless.
What chilled him even more was that the girl he had saved also turned against him.
To be honest, this made Zhang Qian's heart grow cold.
"Since they want to play, we'll play along."
Zhao Fusheng said calmly.
Although this matter caught him off guard, no matter what, since it had come to this, he wanted to see what tricks Li Qingshan could still pull.
