193: Chapter 193 Old Classmate, You've Been Arrested

Chen Shaoping and the others were also sitting in the small shop, having ordered a pot of black tea and a pot of green tea, chatting together.

Their eyes occasionally drifted toward the couple, Zhang Tianshuo and Si Qin.

Chen Shaoping had already noticed the man "binge-watching shows"; seeing his sharp gaze and the earpiece in his ear, he knew this was one of Tian Jun's colleagues.

The reason they hadn't acted yet was that they wanted more drug users to expose themselves.

At the hotel lobby entrance, Tian Jun had already arranged for two people to search everyone leaving the wedding, regardless of gender or age.

This was to ensure that all these drug-related elements were caught in one fell swoop.

Acting too early would only alert the targets; once this group went into hiding, they wouldn't be easy to find.

They would remain a constant factor of instability for society.

On this side, Han Minde got up to go to the restroom. Chen Shaoping gave Wang Bo a look, and the two of them followed immediately.

After relieving themselves.

At the restroom entrance, Han Minde handed a cigarette to Wang Bo and Chen Shaoping. After taking an enjoyable puff himself, he finally spoke with a smile.

"Da Ping, Second Bo, I know what you want to ask."

After saying that, he took another drag from the cigarette.

Chen Shaoping was anxious and urged, "If you know what we want to ask, then hurry up and say it. Don't act all deep and mysterious here."

"Da Ping, Sisi and I are truly in love."

After Han Minde exhaled a cloud of smoke, he continued, "Originally, regarding the lawsuit, I was listening to you and refused to settle."

"But I couldn't hold out against her coming to find me and begging me time and time again."

"She also said the reason she wanted to create hype and get enough exposure was just to earn a bit more money."

"Her family situation is quite complicated: a gambling father, a sick mother, and a brother in school."

"The burden of the entire family is on her shoulders, which is why she strayed onto the wrong path."

Hearing this, Chen Shaoping's scalp tightened, and he had a bad premonition. "You actually believe that?"

"With a story like that, you could go to any club and the hostesses there would spin a tale even more vivid and tragic than this."

He hadn't finished exhaling his smoke before he accidentally inhaled it back down, causing him to cough a few times.

Seeing this, Han Minde quickly helped pat his back, feeling a bit guilty, but not much.

"Da Ping, don't get excited yet. It's not like I'm some pure little virgin."

"You remember the first time we went to a club, I was the one who took you guys? I remember Wang Bo was so embarrassed his face turned bright red, and he bolted back to the dorm."

"Say what you want, but don't bring up those ancient stories."

Wang Bo, catching stray fire while just standing there, immediately expressed his dissatisfaction. Thinking back to that time, he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

Han Minde chuckled a few times and stopped digging up the past. "I've checked her family; it's exactly as she said. And her brother's grades are really good."

"He'll definitely get into a good university during the college entrance exams next year."

"In a few days, I'm planning to go back to Chengdu with her to meet my parents first, and then go to her hometown to meet hers."

Seeing the happy expression Han Minde had while saying these things, Chen Shaoping knew that further persuasion was useless.

Moreover, he couldn't be certain that Zhao Sisi was just a 'green tea bitch' who was only with Han Minde to use him.

"Fine. San De, as long as you've thought it through and made things clear."

"Don't worry, your brother here isn't that easy to fool."

Han Minde stubbed out the cigarette, threw it in the trash, rinsed his mouth with water, and then pulled out a piece of gum to chew.

"You two don't let it slip later; it was you two smoking, not me."

"If she finds out I'm smoking, I probably won't be able to get into bed for a few days."

Chen Shaoping's expression changed instantly; he was a bit speechless.

"San De, you guys are just dating and it's already like this?"

"Then after you get married, how are you going to live?"

Han Minde sighed with a smile, "You guys don't understand. This is what I call loving deeply—painful but happy."

After saying that, he quickly left the restroom.

A saying suddenly popped into Chen Shaoping's mind: Marry a Sichuan-Chongqing woman, enjoy a life of being henpecked.

Seeing him dazed, Wang Bo lightly tapped his shoulder. "What are you staring for?"

"His own Sichuan-Chongqing man 'Henpecked Husband' attribute has awakened; you can't blame anyone else."

Chen Shaoping thought about it and realized it was true. If Han Minde wasn't willing himself, who could force him?

He deserves it!!!

At this rate, he estimated it wouldn't be long before they'd have to prepare red envelopes and gifts.

The two returned to the tea shop.

Zhang Ying had a shocked look on her face as she said softly, "Da Ping, your classmate's wife has a really wide social circle."

"I see people with dyed yellow hair, Floral Arm tattoos, 'Spirit Girls', professors, and refined-looking men in glasses..."

"And at this rate, one banquet hall might not be enough to seat them all."

Chen Shaoping glanced at Zhang Tianshuo, who was receiving so many gifts his hands were full and his smile was ear to ear. This guy really didn't realize the danger.

"Sister Ying, do you think it's possible that all those people you mentioned are drug dealers?"

Zhang Ying had a sudden realization: "You mean the ones with yellow hair and the tattooed guys?"

Chen Shaoping shook his head: "No, it could also be those professors and the refined men in glasses."

Zhang Ying didn't say anything more, but stared at the Jade Hall with even more curiosity.

On the contrary, Li Qian and Zhao Sisi were chatting away enthusiastically.

Time slipped by unknowingly.

The feast in the Jade Hall had already begun.

Most of the guests who could come had pretty much arrived.

Zhang Tianshuo and Si Qin were also preparing to go in to finish the wedding ceremony and then toast the guests.

Zhang Tianshuo yawned, tears unconsciously trickling from the corners of his eyes.

Si Qin quickly took a cigarette from a tray and lit it for him personally.

These were cigarettes originally prepared for the guests.

"Hubby, your craving is kicking in. Hurry up and have one."

"Okay, thanks, wifey!"

After taking a puff, Zhang Tianshuo felt much more comfortable all over, and he slowly exhaled the smoke.

"Let's go, Darling, let's head inside first."

"Okay."

Si Qin's smile was like a blooming flower; today's results were even better than she had anticipated.

She was even considering whether she could make more of an effort with gatherings like wedding banquets in the future to expand her "business".

Just then, seven or eight plainclothes Police Officers quickly approached. Without a word, they first pinned down Zhang Tianshuo, Si Qin, and the best man and bridesmaid.

They were handcuffed.

At this time, outside the hotel entrance, in a corner, quite a few people were already crouching down.

They were all people who had given gift money at the wedding banquet and received a "Wedding Candy Box return gift".

The police had found drugs within these return gifts.

To this end, the police had called in over a dozen more officers for support; otherwise, with just Tian Jun and his ten or so people, they might not have been able to control the scene.

The pinned-down Zhang Tianshuo didn't understand what was happening and questioned sharply, "Comrade Police Officer, why are you arresting us?"

"We're getting married. We didn't hold a disorderly banquet, and we certainly haven't done anything illegal or criminal."

The local Hang City police had already entered the banquet hall to stabilize the situation and had begun checking the guests' ID cards.

Any troublemakers who tried to cause a scene were immediately taken down by the police with batons.

Having learned that some among these people were HIV-positive, the police not only took protective measures but were also authorized to use weapons.

This was to avoid coming into too close contact with the suspects.

Seeing that the situation was basically under control, Tian Jun walked up to Zhang Tianshuo.

"Hey! old classmate, you're under arrest."

Zhang Tianshuo looked at the person in front of him, who was wearing a mask, a face shield, and gloves, and was bundled up tightly in his clothes.

For a moment, he really couldn't remember who it was.

"old classmate? Who are you? Why are you arresting me?"

"I'm Tian Jun! Look at you, how could you forget your old classmate?" Tian Jun's tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction and mockery.
