Chen Chen suggested that you should try acting. What do you think? Li Hao recalled Chen Chen's serious proposal.
I never thought about it; I'm not trained in acting, Lin Xiao replied, showing no interest in Chen Chen's suggestion. If this were before she met Li Hao, she might have asked how much money could be made from acting! But now, with Li Hao by her side, she didn't need the money and had no other thoughts.
The night in the capital was beautiful, with streetlights radiating a sense of righteousness. When they arrived, the courtyard was quiet, with only the on-duty guard awake while everyone else was asleep.
After Lin Xiao finished washing up, she climbed into bed. Tonight, she yawned widely.
"Go to sleep; you look tired," Li Hao said.
"Really? Then I'll sleep," Lin Xiao replied happily as she nestled into his arms.
Li Hao thought to himself, is she treating me like a pillow?
"Li Hao, I want to ask you something," Lin Xiao murmured sleepily.
"What question?" Li Hao wondered how she could still think of questions when she was so sleepy.
"Why do I insist on going to work?" Lin Xiao said, and her breathing soon became long and even.
Li Hao couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle; Lin Xiao had always been too tense in life.
The next morning, Li Hao and Lin Xiao were heading to Yu Rao. The short day had passed in a flash.
As soon as Lin Xiao arrived in Gengwei Town, Meng Kai informed her that something had happened at Cui Ping Nan Yuan.
Before the Dragon Boat Festival, Lin Xiao had promised Li Chenghui to commission a third-party organization to assess the ten residential buildings at Cui Ping Nan Yuan.
Li Chenghui arranged for someone to blend into the community, hoping to learn about the assessment in advance. However, they were discovered by local residents who suspected that the developer was committing fraud.
Initially, the villagers were confused about who was from the third party and who was an intruder. Li Chenghui, a hot-blooded man from the north, called for help from locals to rescue his people.
A misunderstanding arose between the two sides; the villagers called for more people, and soon both parties began fighting without understanding the situation.
When Lin Xiao arrived, the conflict was at its peak.
More than ten police officers from the police station rushed to the scene, but the two sides were embroiled in a brawl with over a hundred people gathered, making it impossible for the officers to separate them.
Lin Xiao took the loudspeaker from the Police Station Chief and stood on a platform to address the crowd, but his voice was drowned out by the chaos.
"Have you requested support from the bureau?" Lin Xiao asked anxiously.
He had already reported to the County Head, who assured him that the Public Security Bureau had been notified.
Lin Xiao gathered all available riot control personnel and police officers from Gengwei Town, deciding not to wait for assistance from the County Public Security Bureau. It was crucial to separate the fighting groups first.
The personnel charged into the fray, and with great difficulty, a path was cleared through the crowd. In the confusion, some officers and Zhenfu were accidentally injured by stray blows.
Just as they managed to part the crowd, the anger that had not yet dissipated reignited, and people surged together again.
The Riot Police were overwhelmed, and it seemed that the fighting crowd was about to collide once more.
Lin Xiao raised the loudspeaker again. "I am Lin Xiao, the mayor of Gengxu Town. Please put down your weapons immediately. Whatever issues you have, I will handle them. Otherwise, you will all be treated as participating in a riot."
Li Chenghui's group, who had been passively enduring blows, began to feel their emotions shift.
Someone shouted that it was this Xin Town Head and Li Boss who had instigated trouble.
Just when they had managed to quell the fighting, it somehow turned against Lin Xiao.
The villagers from Shibenfen surged toward Lin Xiao's direction.
