Chapter 260: Seemingly Calm
Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty: Seemingly Calm （1）
Xia Yang and Bruce were watching the police process the crime scene. Qing Haifeng’s corpse had already been covered with a white sheet, and doctors were leaving one after another. Xia Yang looked at the body lying on the stretcher, his heart growing more uneasy.
The police were taking Xia Yang’s statement. Due to the gunshot wounds on Qing Haifeng, both Xia Yang and Bruce were taken to the police station to record their statements!
Of course, before that, Bruce and Xia Yang had already made full preparations. The gun only had Qing Haifeng’s fingerprints on it. When they went to the police station, they would directly say that the gun belonged to Qing Haifeng and that they had only fired to protect the hostages!
Now that there were no witnesses to the contrary, no one would speak up for a private individual, right! The surrounding surveillance cameras had also been dealt with one by one, making it very difficult to convict them!
After going to the police station, as soon as he stepped inside, the feeling was very similar to five years ago. That year, Xia Yang was inexplicably arrested and detained, and then he was framed by Situ Jingyi and Li Mei to go abroad and was almost killed!
Speaking of which, the happiness Qing Tian had lost over the past five years was all his fault. If it weren’t for him, perhaps Qing Tian and Ji Xiangyu would already be married, or perhaps Li Mei would have found ways to force him away!
Xia Yang did not want to stay at the police station any longer. After making a telephone call to Grandfather Ji, Grandfather Ji pulled some strings, and Xia Yang was released shortly after!
Bruce stayed at the police station to handle the follow-up, while Xia Yang drove away alone!
The speed of the car accelerated again and again. After running several red lights, he finally slowed down, feeling extremely depressed. It wasn’t because Qing Haifeng was dead, but because of Qing Haifeng’s words: “It’s only just begun.” What other conspiracy did they have in secret?
Who would it be detrimental to? Too many questions made him agitated!
Xia Yang rarely went to bars nowadays. Tonight, he really wanted to immerse himself in such an environment, letting the noise and alcohol numb himself!
Entering the bar, the extremely loud DJ seemed to pierce his eardrums, making his ears very uncomfortable. He walked all the way to the bar counter, ordered a bottle of 1985 whiskey, and took a corner table to drink alone.
From the moment he entered the bar, many women had been staring at him. Seeing him generously take out a bottle of 1985 whiskey, they thought, this guy must be a rich second generation, or at least a diamond bachelor!
The first to strike up a conversation was a woman in a leopard-print mini-skirt who walked up to Xia Yang’s table with a smile, her voice feigning gentleness as she said, “Handsome, are you alone? Drinking alone?”
Xia Yang’s cold gaze swept over the woman in front of him, and he said with disgust, “Get lost, flirtatious woman!”
The woman covered her mouth in surprise and said disdainfully, “How dare you call me a flirtatious woman? Hmph, you look quite handsome, I didn’t expect your taste to be so bad!”
Xia Yang poured himself a glass of wine, added a lot of ice, and drank it down in large gulps. He didn’t even spare the woman a glance. Seeing Xia Yang’s indifferent expression, the woman had no choice but to give up!
Then another fearless woman came forward. As soon as she got there, she snatched Xia Yang’s wine glass and said ingratiatingly, “Handsome, why don’t you let me join you for a drink? It’s boring to drink alone!”
Xia Yang’s mood was terrible right now. With such insensible women bothering him one after another, it was simply challenging his bottom line. Xia Yang, unable to bear it any longer, waved his hand and knocked over the glass in the woman’s hand, spilling wine and ice all over the floor.
The woman exclaimed, looking at Xia Yang’s bloodthirsty eyes, and said fearfully, “What are you doing?”
Although her voice was accusatory, it was clear that this woman dared not shout loudly. She was afraid that Xia Yang would strangle her to death the next second, or rather, she had already lost half her life from Xia Yang’s gaze. The woman ran away in a panic. The women nearby who had intended to strike up a conversation with Xia Yang also dared not step forward, sighing inwardly that such a cool and domineering man was truly too attractive!
The bar manager quickly found someone to clean the floor and apologized, saying, “General Manager An, I’m sorry to have startled you!”
Xia Yang snorted coldly, “Clean it up and leave. I want to be alone!”
The cleaner heard this and immediately sped up the cleanup.
Not long after, Xia Yang was alone again, drinking and watching the lively scene below and on stage, which was completely different from his mood. It was truly ironic!
“Mr. Xia, what are you doing here!”
This sentence was different from the other women who tried to chat him up. Xia Yang looked over at the sound, a smile on his lips, “What a coincidence, Miss Peng!”
