Roses in Flames

Xiao Lin looked at Ye Yuhang, "Besides, he only stepped on your shoes and you forced him to kneel down and lick them clean for you. This is school bullying, a serious offense, enough to warrant an investigation."

Xiao Lin's eyes were sharp, and his aura was powerful.

Even the most vicious criminals are somewhat intimidated when they face him.

Not to mention these students who are only around sixteen years old.

"Physical assault, verbal abuse, framing for theft—each of these offenses is enough to put on record at the police station."

The three of them panicked a little, exchanged glances, and dared not confront each other again.

Xiao Lin stretched out his large hand. "Give me the watch. I'll have it authenticated. You guys are coming with me to the police station!"

"Officer, we were just joking. Ye Mo and I are cousins. Never mind, I won't hold it against Ye Mo."

After saying that, Ye Yuhang and the other two boys tried to slip away.

But before he could run more than a few steps, Xiao Lin caught up with him.

Cheng Lei also came over and stopped another boy.

Xiao Lin grabbed Ye Yuhang by the collar with one large hand and another boy by the collar with the other.

He spoke with an imposing air, "Did I say you could leave?"

Faced with Xiao Lin's cold and stern face and powerful aura, Ye Yuhang's legs trembled slightly.

"Officer, do you know who I am? The Ye family is a wealthy family in Ye City. If you dare to hurt me, my grandfather will not let you off the hook."

The other two boys also introduced themselves.

They are indeed all children from wealthy families in Yecheng.

But Xiao Lin was never afraid of these things.

His voice was icy cold as he barked, "At such a young age, you dare threaten the police? Stand still!"

At his command, Ye Yuhang and the two boys stood at attention without realizing it.

"Have you wronged Ye Mo?"

The three lowered their heads, not daring to speak.

"Speak!" Xiao Lin raised his voice.

The air was thick with a terrifying sense of oppression, enveloping the three of them like a giant net.

"If you don't want a criminal record, tell the truth right now!"

Ye Yuhang lowered his head even further. "We did indeed... wrong Ye Mo."

Xiao Lin dragged the three of them in front of Ye Mo. His voice was authoritative and brooked no argument, "Apologize!"

Ye Yuhang opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

Make him apologize to that damn mute Ye Mo?

In the Ye family, he was the crown prince. Even if he made a mistake, his grandfather would only protect him.

Where had he ever suffered such injustice?

He'd rather die than apologize!

"If you don't apologize, come with me to the police station." Xiao Lin's cold, hard voice carried a chilling sharpness. "I'll count down from three, three, two..."

The other two boys couldn't take it anymore and quickly apologized, "Ye Mo, we wronged you, we're sorry."

Unable to withstand the oppressive atmosphere emanating from Xiao Lin, Ye Yuhang lowered his head, looking utterly humiliated. "Ye Mo, I'm sorry."

Xiao Lin's eyes sharpened. "Bowing at a ninety-degree angle to apologize, and speaking louder!"

The three boys felt an unprecedented sense of oppression.

The three of them felt their legs go weak and bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle, saying, "Ye Mo, we're sorry!"

Looking at Xiao Lin, who didn't ask any questions, trusted him directly, and protected him, Ye Mo's eyes welled up with tears. He felt a mix of sadness and warmth in his heart, and was also very moved.

The police officer is really a good person.

"Ye Mo, if they cause you trouble again, you can contact me. If there is a next time, I will not tolerate it."

Xiao Lin took out his phone and added Ye Mo on WeChat.

After Ye Yuhang and the other two ran away in a disheveled state, Ye Mo bowed to Xiao Lin to express his gratitude.

Xiao Lin raised his large hand and patted Ye Mo's head. "Your sister and I are colleagues."

A hint of surprise flashed in Ye Mo's clear eyes, and a smile appeared on his handsome face, with a dimple on his left cheek appearing faintly.

"Where do you live? I'll take you home."

Ye Mo waved his hand, indicating that it was too much trouble.

"It's alright, no trouble at all."

"Boss, you take him home, I'll take a taxi home myself."

Xiao Lin nodded.

As Ye Mo sat in the passenger seat, his stomach suddenly rumbled.

Xiao Lin looked at him, "Hungry? What would you like to eat? I haven't eaten either."

Ye Mo took out his phone and typed a line of text.

"Brother, can I have KFC? Don't tell my sister."

Xiao Lin narrowed his dark eyes slightly. "Your sister doesn't usually let you eat KFC?"

Ye Mo nodded, and then typed another line.

"My sister said it's junk food, and that it will cause me to get pimples if I eat it. Also, I have a sensitive stomach, and she's worried that I won't be able to digest it."

Xiao Lin pursed his thin lips. "It shouldn't be a problem to have it once in a while. I won't tell your sister."

Ye Mo smiled happily.

"Thank you, brother."

Xiao Lin looked at Ye Mo. His eyes looked a lot like Ye Yuntang's; they were watery and very beautiful.

When they arrived at the KFC, Xiao Lin refused to let Ye Mo pay the bill and paid for it himself.

"You can treat me to a meal when you start working and earning money in the future."

While waiting for his food, Ye Mo picked up his phone and typed a message:

"Brother, my sister isn't a promiscuous person. She's a good person. It's Fu Shili who's bad."

Looking at Ye Mo, who was hurriedly explaining for Ye Yuntang, Xiao Lin's deep eyes revealed a hint of tenderness. "I know."

Seeing that Xiao Lin believed in her sister's character, Ye Mo typed another line:

"Brother, are you one of my sister's suitors?"

Xiao Lin, "..."

Seeing that Xiao Lin remained silent, Ye Mo's eyes dimmed slightly.

Just when Ye Mo thought Xiao Lin wouldn't answer, he suddenly heard a voice say, "Do you want me to be your brother-in-law?"

Ye Mo's eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded vigorously.

"think."

Xiao Lin, "Call me brother-in-law and let me hear it."

Ye Mo typed two words: "Brother-in-law".

"Xiao Mo, this is our secret. Don't tell your sister yet."

A hint of doubt flashed in Ye Mo's eyes, but he still obediently nodded.

……

evening.

Ye Yuntang returned to her mother's house.

Just as she was about to go inside, she saw a familiar SUV driving up.

Xiao Lin's car?

How did he end up here?

Puzzled, Ye Yuntang saw the car stop, the passenger door open, and her younger brother Ye Mo got out.

Furthermore, the younger brother, who rarely smiles, actually gave a bright smile to the people in the car, and even raised his hand and waved to the man.

Ye Yuntang rubbed her eyes, initially thinking she was seeing things.

She pursed her lips tightly and then walked over quickly.

"Xiao Mo, why did you get out of his car?"

Ye Mo took out his phone and typed a line:

"Sister, I'm so grateful to my brother for helping me today. I'll tell you the details when we get back."

Upon learning that Xiao Lin had helped her younger brother, Ye Yuntang lowered her head and looked into the car window.

After their unpleasant parting last night, it was still somewhat awkward to meet again in this way.

After taking a deep breath, Ye Yuntang said, "Captain Xiao, thank you for helping my brother."

The man gave her a deep, dark look, said nothing, stepped on the gas, and sped away.

Ye Yuntang was sprayed with exhaust fumes.

She clenched her teeth, furious.

asshole!

Can't we just talk normally?
