Wei Ruo smiled faintly. “Causing trouble in public—Boss He, how long are you planning to stay in prison?”

“Heh, don’t talk nonsense. I just want you to release him. Why are you detaining people? I should be helping this young man sue you for assault!” Boss He retorted, though his tone lacked confidence.

“They attacked first, so we are handing them over to the authorities. If you have a problem with that, you can take us to the authorities as well. I can go with you right now. Well? Are we going or not?” Wei Ruo replied.

Boss He’s face darkened. He hadn’t expected this young man, with an unsightly blue birthmark on his face, to be so sharp-tongued.

“You brat, don’t push your luck!” Boss He fumed.

“I think the one pushing their luck is you. Jealous of my family’s successful business, so you come to cause trouble? You don’t even dare to use your own name, hiding behind someone else’s. I’ve seen shameless people before, but never anyone as shameless as you!” Wei Ruo shot back.

“Alright, you little punk. You don’t listen, huh? Then I’ll show you that I, He Youcai, am not someone to be messed with!”

Perhaps angered by Wei Ruo’s words, Boss He tore away his last facade, preparing to resort to violence.

At this moment, a large crowd had gathered to watch. Yet, despite so many onlookers, He Youcai still dared to make a move, showing just how accustomed he was to throwing his weight around. The nearby residents, afraid of him, didn’t dare to speak up.

Seeing the confrontation, some of those who had suffered under Boss He looked at Wei Ruo with worry and sympathy.

Just then, one of the guards pulled out a waist token from his robe and held it up for Boss He to see.

Boss He had been smug and arrogant moments ago, but upon seeing the token, his expression changed drastically.

“A… A County Princess*…”

*A County Princess (郡主, Jùnzhǔ) is a noble title typically granted to the daughter of a prince in ancient Chinese aristocracy. In most dynasties, a County Princess ranked below a Princess of the First Rank (公主, Gōngzhǔ), who was usually the emperor’s direct daughter.

These were people under the command of County Princess Jingmin!

Boss He’s eyes widened in shock, utterly at a loss.

The men behind him immediately dropped the “weapons” in their hands.

They were nothing but commoners—how could they dare to offend a County Princess?

Li Biao had initially placed his hopes in Boss He, believing that he could save him. But now, that hope has been shattered.

“The two officers, please forgive my poor eyesight for not recognizing you,” Boss He quickly apologized and admitted his mistake.

On a normal day, if the two guards had been wearing their official uniforms, he wouldn’t have dared to offend them.

But today, they had deliberately dressed as commoners to help Wei Ruo track someone down.

“Boss He, please come with us to the yamen.”

At these words from the guards, the blood drained from Boss He’s face. He attempted to struggle. “Officers, this is all a misunderstanding! I don’t even know this man named Li Biao! I just thought you were bullying someone, so I brought my shop workers along to help.”

The two guards said nothing and instead turned to look at Wei Ruo.

Boss He now realized that this young man with an unsightly face was actually the one in charge.

“Young master, this was all a misunderstanding,” Boss He said with a smile, his arrogance from earlier completely gone.

“Oh? So Li Biao leading a group to smash my shop was also a misunderstanding?” Wei Ruo asked.

“No! I don’t know him well at all! I never sent him to destroy your shop!” Boss He denied hastily.
