Chapter 6: Reconciliation, Deputy Chief gave thanks in person!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Seeing the situation in the ward getting increasingly complicated, Chen Yeliang groaned silently.

Lan Penghao was furious and did not give him a chance to explain.

And the only person who could talk some sense to Lan Penghao was Lan Sixi.

Chen Yeliang looked past Officer Zhao and Lan Penghao. He kept blinking at Lan Sixi, hoping that she would step up to help.

Lan Sixi called out softly, "Dad… Daddy…"

However, Lan Penghao was so overwhelmed with rage that he could not hear her soft voice.

Lan Sixi took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and shouted with all her strength, "Daddy! Stop!"

Hearing his daughter's voice, Lan Penghao's anger instantly subsided.

He forgot about Chen Yeliang and quickly squatted down beside the wheelchair. He said gently, "My dear Sixi, Daddy is here, don't be afraid!"

Lan Sixi pouted with a pained expression. "Daddy, he saved my life. Please don't be rash."

On hearing this, Lan Penghao eyed Chen Yeliang suspiciously and asked Lan Sixi doubtfully, "What's going on? My dear Sixi, don't be afraid. Daddy is here. No one will bully you!"

Faced with the prospect of bringing up the past, Lan Sixi lowered her head and bit her lip in shame.

She had spoken barely 2 sentences before withdrawing into herself again. Lan Penghao noticed this and became anxious.

Officer Zhao couldn't stand it anymore. He stepped forward and explained, "Deputy Chief, I was at the scene when the incident happened."

"Then tell me!" Lan Penghao stood up angrily.

It had been a long time since Lan Penghao had a proper conversation with Lan Sixi. Lan Sixi felt somewhat conflicted towards him. The more agitated he was, the more Lan Sixi could not speak. He became even more agitated as a result.

Thus father and daughter fell into an endless cycle of suffocating silence and anxiety.

Chen Yeliang stood by the side and took in everything. He said, "Deputy Chief Lan, let's go out and talk. Let Lan Sixi have a good rest."

Lan Penghao looked at Lan Sixi and hesitated before saying, "Okay, wait for me in the corridor."

Officer Zhao and Chen Yeliang walked out of the ward one after another and looked through the vision panel on the door.

They saw Lan Penghao carefully carry Lan Sixi to the bed and tenderly tuck her in. He gave her a few reminders before walking over.

"Speak." Lan Penghao's tone softened.

Officer Zhao said, "Deputy Chief, I've already understood the whole situation from Student Chen…"

Chen Yeliang stood at the side and quietly listened to Officer Zhao recount everything.

From Li Tan secretly taking photos and threatening Lan Sixi to Lan Sixi seeking death.

Lan Penghao's expression changed several times as he listened. He was gnashing his teeth and he wanted so badly to skin Li Tan alive!

Towards the end, Officer Zhao mentioned that Chen Yeliang jumped down to save his daughter.

"Deputy Chief, when Miss Lan jumped down, it was fortunate that Student Chen caught her!"

When he heard that his daughter had jumped off a building, Lan Penghao felt as if his heart was being squeezed. He asked in anguish, "And then?"

"The firefighters needed time to run upstairs. At that time, the wind was very strong and blew the two of them down! We were all scared out of our wits, but Student Chen was calm and collected! He flung Miss Lan onto the safety air mattress from the air! He himself fell into a tree."

As Officer Zhao said that, he grabbed Chen Yeliang's arms and showed Lan Penghao the dense web of wounds.

"Deputy Chief, look, these are all fresh injuries. Student Chen is honestly not the one who bullied Miss Lan."

"What about the b*stard who bullied my dear Sixi?" Lan Penghao asked.

"That guy was identified by Student Chen when he was watching amongst the onlookers. That scoundrel ran so fast that we almost couldn't catch up. In the end it was Student Chen who caught him."

When the truth was finally brought to light, Lan Penghao had mixed feelings. This seemingly ordinary young man in front of him had not only saved his daughter, but also caught the scoundrel who had bullied Lan Sixi!

On the other hand, he had wanted to brutally teach him a lesson without any hesitation, almost causing his daughter's savior a second round of injuries.

Lan Penghao felt extremely guilty. "I'm sorry, Chen. I was too impulsive just now. I apologize to you!"

Chen Yeliang smiled magnanimously and said, "It's alright, Deputy Chief Lan. I can understand how you feel."

The more magnanimous he was, the more embarrassed Lan Penghao felt.

At a loss for a remedy, Lan Penghao hurriedly said, "Chen, you must be starving after being so busy for the whole day."

Without further explanation, Officer Zhao immediately understood his intentions and took the initiative to say, "Deputy Chief, Student Chen, what do you want to eat? I'll go buy it!"

"Wanhao Hotel is not far from here. Their restaurant is not bad. You can buy from there."

Wanhao Hotel was one of the top five-star hotels in the city. Three or four dishes might be equivalent to a regular person's monthly salary.

Lan Penghao had only been there once or twice. Although the food was expensive, it was really good. It was unforgettable after tasting it once.

Although he was not very rich, in order to thank Chen Yeliang, he decided to spare no expense this time!

"Ah? Wanhao…" Officer Zhao hesitated.

He was out on official duty and realized that he did not bring much money with him. Now that he had to fork out a big sum of money, he could not help feeling fainthearted..

Chen Yeliang did not want him to spend so much money too. He was about to object but was interrupted by Lan Penghao.

Lan Penghao took out a credit card from his inner pocket and flicked it to Officer Zhao with two fingers. "Come back quickly."

"Yes, Sir!!" Officer Zhao took the card and dashed off.

Both men never once gave Chen Yeliang a chance to say anything throughout the whole process.

Chen Yeliang shook his head with a wry smile. No wonder he was the Deputy Chief of Police. Even his way of expressing his gratitude was so unyielding.

He smiled and said to Lan Penghao, "Deputy Chief Lan, there is no need to go to such expense."

"Chen, you don't have to stand on ceremony." Lan Penghao smiled and said, "This is my way of apologizing to you. Don't turn it down. Come, let's talk inside!"

He pushed the door open carefully for Chen Yeliang and walked briskly to Lan Sixi's bedside. He held her hand and said,

"Daddy knows everything that had happened now. Don't be afraid. Daddy get justice for you!"

Lan Sixi shook her head and turned to look at Chen Yeliang.

She felt ashamed. This guy had saved her, but she did not even know his name.

Lan Sixi pursed her glistening lips and said softly, "Thank you for saving me. I'm sorry, I still don't know your name."

"Freshman Chen Yeliang."

"Thank you, Student Chen." Lan Sixi lowered her head shyly and repeated Chen Yeliang's name in her mind. She could feel the wrist that Chen Yeliang had held burning hot.

Although her memory was very chaotic, the image of Chen Yeliang saving her was still fresh in her mind.

Lan Sixi's face unknowingly blushed and a layer of reddishness overlaid her pale complexion.

"Hahaha, my dear Sixi, Chen is your savior. There's no need to be so courteous. You are all classmates, so no need to be so reserved," Lan Penghao said with a smile.

Lan Sixi frowned slightly. "But, Daddy, you almost hit… Student Ye Liang."

"It's Daddy's fault! Daddy will apologize to Chen! Is that all right?"

Lan Penghao immediately effected submissiveness, short of groveling.

Chen Yeliang silently watched the father and daughter pair and realized that their relationship was not as bad as Lan Sixi had described.

He felt that it was rude to keep staring at others, so he turned on the television.

A familiar scene unexpectedly appeared!
