Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Xu Yang and Jiang Zhiyong returned to the hotel and received a phone call from Ma Yangrong.

Ma Yangrong said, "Mr. Xu, based on the latest information, Tang Jinghuan has made his move against you. He has protected Gao Yuanzhong, and now he's letting Gao Yuanzhong go after you. His invitation for you to go to Haicheng was indeed malicious. I advise you not to meet with him. Since he has already made his move, there's no need to see him!"

Xu Yang's gaze sharpened. He had not expected Tang Jinghuan to take action already. Indeed, there was no need to meet now. So he said, "Alright, are there any flights back to Haicheng right now?"

Ma Yangrong replied, "I checked, and the only flights are in the afternoon. However, there is high-speed rail departing in half an hour. The hotel you're staying at is not far from the high-speed rail station. I suggest you go immediately to catch the high-speed rail. You can make it. Once you're on the high-speed rail and out of Haicheng, Gao Yuanzhong won't be able to do anything to you."

Xu Yang immediately made a decision, "Okay, buy the tickets, and Brother Yong and I will head to the high-speed rail right away!"

Ma Yangrong heaved a sigh of relief, "Alright."

Fortunately, Xu Yang agreed. Otherwise, staying in Haicheng would have been very dangerous.

If Xu Yang were to be caught, it would have spelled major trouble.

It would be all too easy for Tang Jinghuan and Gao Yuanzhong to plot something when they work together.

Half an hour later, Xu Yang and Jiang Zhiyong boarded the high-speed train.

The train started slowly and left the high-speed rail station.

Xu Yang called Ma Yangrong, "Brother Yong and I are on the high-speed train, the train has started moving. You can make your move now."

Ma Yangrong chuckled, "Alright, anyone who lays hands on you will have to pay a price. We are fully prepared."

...

Gao Yuanzhong rushed back to the airport police station and asked his subordinate, "How is it? Have you caught Xu Yang?"

The subordinate replied, "No, we've just found out that he's already boarded the high-speed train to Jiangcheng and has left Haicheng."

"What!" Gao Yuanzhong's face changed as he cursed, "What did I tell you? Didn't I tell you to chase after him and not let him get away?"

The subordinate kept his head down, saying nothing.

He was not keen on catching Xu Yang in the first place, because Xu Yang really had done nothing wrong.

The people who were caught earlier had already confessed what had happened.

It was all Gao Yuanzhong using his authority for personal vendettas.

So when Gao Yuanzhong ordered him to catch Xu Yang, he only symbolically led the team out.

Later, after learning that Xu Yang had boarded the high-speed train, he called the team back.

"Useless fools!" Gao Yuanzhong cursed before returning to his office.

There was nothing he could do now, the man had left.

His claim that Xu Yang was a criminal was completely baseless.

He couldn't possibly just stop the high-speed train with his word alone; that was impossible.

He took out his phone and dialed Tang Jinghuan's number.

He had to inform Tang Jinghuan that Xu Yang hadn't been caught.

Soon, the call connected.

Tang Jinghuan's voice came through immediately, "Did you catch him?"

Gao Yuanzhong said, "Mr. Tang, I'm sorry, but we didn't catch him. He escaped."

"He escaped?" Tang Jinghuan frowned, "No matter what, you must try every possible way to catch him!"

Gao Yuanzhong replied with a wry smile, "Mr. Tang, there's no catching him now. He's already on the high-speed train back to Jiangcheng!"

"What!" Tang Jinghuan's face changed.

He knew that once he moved against Xu Yang, Xu Yang would surely find out.

But he had not expected that the man would just leave.

In his view, a person of Xu Yang's age would surely be defiant and want to confront him, not leave so easily.

Now it seemed that Xu Yang was more complicated than he had thought.

Gao Yuanzhong asked, "Mr. Tang, what should we do now?"

Tang Jinghuan, irritated, said, "What can we do if he has already run away? Can you still catch him?"

Gao Yuanzhong replied bitterly, "No, I can't."

He had framed Xu Yang in the first place. Within the airport police station's jurisdiction, he could manipulate the situation against Xu Yang.

But once out of his turf, how could he chase after others, especially now that Xu Yang was already out of Haicheng?

Tang Jinghuan said, "Alright, let's leave it at that for now."

Gao Yuanzhong said, "Mr. Tang, I still need your continued attention to my matter."

Tang Jinghuan gave a smile. "Don't worry, I know. As long as there's a chance, I'll push you further up. That's it for now; hanging up."

After he spoke, he hung up the phone.

Gao Yuanzhong put down his mobile phone, but his face was filled with bitter smiles.

He could clearly hear how Tang Jinghuan's words were just perfunctory.

Without having settled the matter, how could anyone let him advance further?

"As long as there's a chance"... he feared that chance would never come.

Unless Tang Jinghuan still had something he needed to do himself, and if he could get it done well, then there might be a possibility.

Sigh!

Just like that, an opportunity to move up had slipped away!

Gao Yuanzhong sighed, lit a cigarette, and took slow, deep drags.

Right then, someone knocked on the door of his office.

Gao Yuanzhong's brow furrowed. "Come in."

The door opened, and a subordinate walked in saying, "Leader, you should check out Douyin."

"What's wrong with Douyin?" Gao Yuanzhong's frown deepened, "All of you, instead of focusing on work, you fail to catch the person and even have the mind to watch Douyin. It seems I've been too indulgent with you. From now on, whoever watches Douyin during work hours, I'll make them regret it!"

After being scolded by Gao Yuanzhong, the subordinate became ansy and distressed. "Leader, it's because I saw something related to you on Douyin that I came to remind you."

"Related to me?" Gao Yuanzhong was startled, quickly picked up his phone, opened the Douyin app, and soon saw a video on the Douyin trending list.

In the video, a portly middle-aged man is seen knocking over a young woman and then leaving in a taxi.

Fuck, isn't that myself?

How could this video be uploaded to Douyin?

This could kill someone!

Gao Yuanzhong's forehead immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

What on earth was going on?

Who uploaded the video to Douyin?

Could it be that young woman?

He hurriedly opened the Weibo trending search.

He discovered that the seventeenth hottest searched topic was: Middle-aged man snatches taxi.

Clicking in to take a look, he found that various news media were reporting on the news.

The all-seeing netizens had already searched out his workplace and his name.

One sensational headline after another was emerging.

Shocking! Government employee knocks over a frail woman in a scramble for a taxi who was going to the hospital for treatment!

Shocking! Government employee knocks over frail woman, causing her to faint, nearly resulting in a fatality!

Reading these titles, Gao Yuanzhong felt as if his entire being wasn't well.

Damn it, these clickbaity headlines should die!

Would they die if they didn't write it like this?

It must be said, these sensational headlines really drew attention, and the news quickly ascended the trending searches.

In the span of time Gao Yuanzhong read the news, it had climbed to the fifth hottest search.

Now the whole internet was filled with voices condemning him, Gao Yuanzhong.

"This is trouble!"

The cold sweat on Gao Yuanzhong's forehead grew more profuse.

He urgently dialed Tang Jinghuan's phone number.

He had been trying to take a taxi to get back to the bureau quickly for Tang Jinghuan's errand, which is why he ended up knocking over that woman.

This matter, Tang Jinghuan had to take responsibility for.

He needed Tang Jinghuan to suppress this incident.

Soon, the call got through.

Gao Yuanzhong directly said, "Mr. Tang, save me."

Tang Jinghuan responded coldly, "Are you talking about your trending on the hot search?"
