Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

Half an hour later, the car arrived at the restaurant.

It was dinner time and the restaurant was packed with people. At a glance, there was no empty table at all.

Lian Wen and Li Cenyuan waited outside for a few minutes, and finally a table of guests paid the bill and left.

The two hurried into the restaurant, and after sitting down, Lian Wen said a little embarrassedly: "I didn't expect there would be so many people."

Li Cenyuan smiled and said, "It's okay, as long as I can eat it."

Lian Wen picked up the menu and handed it to Li Cenyuan, asking him to order.

Li Cenyuan handed the menu back and said, "You order. I don't know what's delicious."

Lian Wen did not refuse. She skillfully selected a few signature dishes and handed the menu to the waiter.

While waiting for the food to be served, Lian Wen took the initiative to find a topic to chat in order to avoid embarrassment. She looked at Li Cenyuan and asked softly, "Are you traveling alone?"

Li Cenyuan: "Well... yes."

"Believe it is?" Lian Wen didn't understand. Yes is it, and no is it, so how can you say "believe it is"?

Li Cenyuan: "There is another sister. We came out together, but we separated and went our own ways. She went to a city in the south."

Lian Wen suddenly realized, "I understand."

I didn't ask any further questions. When it comes to asking some questions to strangers you meet by chance, you should be careful about how you handle them and know when to stop.

After chatting for a few more sentences, Lian Wen suddenly took out a piece of paper and a pen from her bag, quickly wrote down a string of numbers on the paper, then tore it off neatly and gently passed it to Li Cenyuan opposite her.

Li Cenyuan looked down at the note and asked in confusion, "What is this?"

"My phone number." Lian Wen said seriously, "If the person behind you comes to you, just call me and I will handle it."

Lian Wen had been thinking about this matter in the car.

Although Li Cenyuan said that he would leave the imperial capital in two days, who could guarantee that the people from the Sun family would not seek revenge on him during these two days?

Lian Wen was a little worried and thought it was better to be prepared for the worst.

Give him her own phone number so that if that person really causes trouble, she will know in time and seek help.

Lian Wen knew clearly that she couldn't solve the problem by herself. She was just an ordinary university teacher and could not compare with the Sun family at all.

Her plan was to ask her teacher to come forward.

Her teacher is a renowned professor of physics and also the president of Imperial Capital University. Those families will give him some face.

If he speaks out a few words, I'm sure the Sun family won't pursue the matter further.

Li Cenyuan didn't know what Lian Wen was planning. He didn't take the piece of paper with the phone number on it. Instead, he said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

"I can't rest assured. If he comes looking for you, please be sure to call me." Lian Wen looked stubborn.

Li Cenyuan pursed his lips, not knowing how to explain that nothing would happen to him.

Finally, he compromised and took the note. "Okay."

He folded it carefully and put it in his pocket. When he pulled his hand out, he accidentally pulled out another piece of paper. The paper floated to the ground and landed right at Lian Wen's feet.

Lian Wen subconsciously looked down. Li Cenyuan also reacted quickly. When he saw the paper falling, he immediately bent down to pick it up. However, Lian Wen got there first and leaned slightly to the side: "I'll help you pick it up."

Then he bent down to pick it up, and when he handed it to Li Cenyuan, he inadvertently glanced at the words written on it.

She instantly remembered that this was given to Li Cenyuan by a girl in the coffee shop.

Lian Wen felt a little embarrassed when she thought of this incident, as she had laughed at others at that time.

How should I put it, I feel a little regretful.

Li Cenyuan, who took back the paper, noticed that Lian Wen's expression was a little unnatural. After a little thought, he guessed that she might be upset because of the laughter before.

"It's okay, I don't mind."

"I'm sorry, I was indeed rash."

Lian Wen saw Li Cenyuan gently patting the dust off the paper and then putting the paper into his pocket. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Are you a germaphobe?"

Li Cenyuan shook his head slightly: "No. It's not good to dirty something given by others."

Hearing this, Lian Wen's heart felt as if a feather was gently brushing against it, causing ripples.

This person's character seems... too good.

Anyway, she has lived for more than 20 years and has never seen a boy like him, who is brave and righteous, respects others, and shows his good manners in his every move.

Lian Wen couldn't help but praise: "People like you are really rare."

Li Cenyuan was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment."

"You're welcome, you deserve it."

At this time, the dishes were served one after another, steaming hot and full of fragrance.

The two stopped talking and enjoyed the dinner quietly.

After paying the bill, it was already late at night and the two separated at the restaurant door, Lian Wen went home and Li Cenyuan returned to the hotel.

I thought they would never meet again, but the fact is, two days later, Li Cenyuan met Lian Wen again.

this day.

When Lian Wen finished teaching her students and was about to leave the classroom, she suddenly heard students in the front row chatting animatedly. Words like "Sun family" and "beating people" came into Lian Wen's ears, causing her to pause.

In the past, she would not have reacted at all when hearing these insignificant gossips, but she had just offended someone from the Sun family two days ago, so she couldn't help but think about it.

Lian Wen turned around and walked over to the students gathered together, and asked softly, "Classmates, what are you talking about the Sun family?"

When several students saw the teacher coming, they immediately stopped chatting. One of them replied, "Teacher, there was a video uploaded online. It showed a young master from the Sun family who found a group of people to surround a person."

Lian Wen's heart suddenly rose, and she had a bad feeling. "Can you show me the video?"

The student was a little embarrassed, "Teacher, the video is gone. It must have been deleted by the Sun family."

Lian Wen asked: "Then do you know who was beaten?"

"I know!" When this was mentioned, several students suddenly became excited, their eyes sparkling, and they described it with joy and gesticulation, "Teacher, you didn't see it, the scene was so shocking, that guy knocked all the dozen people led by the young master to the ground with just two moves, it was so cool!"

Lian Wen was stunned when he heard this. "So what you mean is that the man is fine, but it's the Sun family who suffered the loss?"

The students nodded one after another: "Yes, teacher, that guy is really powerful. No one in the martial arts association can fight as well as him."

Lian Wen's worries were slightly relieved. "Thank you, I understand."

She subconsciously took out her cell phone and slid her finger across the screen, wanting to call Li Cenyuan to ask what was going on and why he didn't call her.

But when she turned on her phone, she realized she didn't have his number at all.

…Turn to the Internet, although the video has been deleted, people are still discussing it.

Lian Wen saw someone say that those people had been taken away by the police for investigation because they had fought in public and had a bad influence.

Lian Wen was extremely anxious and rushed to the police station without caring about anything else.

There were a lot of people in the police station and the noise was endless. Lian Wen searched anxiously in the crowd and finally saw the person she wanted to see.

She walked over quickly, her high heels hitting the ground, making a crisp sound.

At that time, Li Cenyuan was sitting on a chair with a calm face, waiting for the police to question him. When he heard footsteps, he turned around and looked with surprise in his eyes, "It's you."

Lian Wen first glanced up and down at Li Cenyuan and found that his clothes were intact and his hair was neat, so he should not be injured. Only then did she completely relax.

"Why didn't you call me?" she asked, her tone accusing.

Li Cenyuan heard it. He knew that he didn't do what he said. It was normal for Lian Wen to be angry, but if he told the truth, she might be even angrier...

"Would you believe me if I told you I had thrown away the paper you gave me?"

Lian Wen gritted his teeth and said firmly: "I don't believe it."

Others might lose things carelessly, but Lian Wen knew very well that Li Cenyuan was not that kind of person.

Li Cenyuan sighed helplessly, "You've seen it too. I can handle it myself, so I didn't bother you."

"You call this being able to handle it when we're at the police station?" Lian Wen raised her voice and said excitedly, "Do you know that if the Sun family doesn't want to let you go, you'll have to go to jail?"

Although it was the Sun family who started the trouble first and Li Cenyuan was acting in self-defense, the Sun family was powerful in the local area and it was not difficult for them to put pressure on the police and confuse right and wrong.

Li Cenyuan: "Ah - so serious, should I sneak away now?"

He came to the police station just to cooperate with the police's work and adapt to local customs. He didn't want to break the local rules. But if the police were unreasonable, why should he cooperate?

Just leave, who can stop him?

"Escape?" Lian Wen was stunned. She didn't know whether Li Cenyuan was joking or really had this idea. "Where can you go? As long as you are still in Daxia, the police can find you."

Then he would leave Daxia. He was here for tourism anyway. If this country didn’t work, he would just change to another one.

Li Cenyuan thought silently in his heart. He chose not to say it out loud because he had a hunch that once he said it, the person in front of him would get angry.

Seeing that Li Cenyuan remained silent, Lian Wen scratched her hair irritably, "Don't worry about it. This matter was caused by me. I will solve it."

Because she was going to work today, Lian Wen wore a black suit jacket and jeans. Her long wavy hair was casually scattered on her shoulders, and she had light makeup on her face. However, due to her strong appearance, even such a simple outfit could not hide her bright and charming appearance.

Li Cenyuan opened his mouth and was about to say something when he saw Lian Wen taking big strides and walking straight towards the police.

Seeing this scene, Li Cenyuan felt as if his heart was gently hit by something.

This was the first time someone had stood in his way.

In Xuanzhou, whenever they caused trouble, no matter how big or small, he would stand up and take the blame.

And this time...

It was the first time that Li Cenyuan felt protected, and he was actually a little moved.

Lian Wen naturally had no idea of ​​Li Cenyuan's inner turmoil at the moment. She walked a few steps to the police, first explained her purpose, and then asked about the progress of the case, such as what the attitude of the Sun family was...

The police officer was about to notify Li Cenyuan to take a statement, but when he heard this, he replied, "The Sun family is very tough and insists that it was your friend who started it first. They even found a lot of so-called witnesses."

Lian Wen frowned, "How is this possible? So many people were watching and recording it."

The policeman shook his head helplessly: "The video has been deleted. There is no evidence, and many people dare not tell the truth." Because he was afraid of offending the Sun family, he did not say the second half of the sentence, but everyone knew it.

Lian Wen gritted her teeth and said, "What about surveillance? There can't be no surveillance, right?"

Police: "The location of the incident happened to be a surveillance blind spot."

"..."

Just when Lian Wen was speechless, two middle-aged men walked in from the police station. They were wearing the same black training suits with the word "Wu" embroidered prominently on their left chests.

Like Lian Wen, they scanned the crowd as they came in. When they saw Li Cenyuan, their eyes lit up and they walked towards this side quickly.

"Excuse me, are you the expert who can fight against dozens of people at once in the video?"

Li Cenyuan was a little confused by this sudden person and question.

video? What video?

"If you're talking about the conflict that happened on the street not long ago, it should be me," Li Cenyuan replied.

He didn't know that the scene of him beating someone was recorded and uploaded to the Internet. Although the video has been deleted, many people still saw it, including the Wushu Association.

The methods displayed by Li Cenyuan in the video were clean and neat, with a perfect combination of strength and skills. The black belt players of the Wushu Association were stunned and amazed. The president was even more moved by his talent and wanted to recruit him, so he sent these two people to have a good talk with Li Cenyuan.

One of the middle-aged men smiled and said enthusiastically, "Sir, our president admires your skills very much and hopes you can consider joining our martial arts association."

It turned out that he was from the Wushu Association.

When Li Cenyuan was learning about the imperial capital, he had heard of the Wushu Association and knew that it was an influential organization.

"Thank you for your appreciation, President. I will not join."

Are you kidding? There's no way he could join.

The middle-aged man didn't seem to understand Li Cenyuan's refusal. The smile on his face froze for a moment, but he still didn't give up. "Sir, will you consider it again?"

Just as Li Cenyuan was about to refuse again, he heard a familiar female voice: "Master Zhao, he is not from Daxia and will not stay in the imperial capital for long."

The person who spoke was Lian Wen, and she walked over with the police.

The middle-aged man called "Master Zhao" turned around when he heard the voice and saw Lian Wen. He was a little surprised and asked, "Lian Wen? Why are you here?"

They were acquaintances. There was a martial arts club in the Imperial Capital University. A few years ago, Master Zhao was invited to serve as the head coach, and Lian Wen was one of the members of the club at that time.

Lian Wen reluctantly recounted the whole story.

Master Zhao frowned after hearing this, "You didn't tell him your identity?"

In his opinion, Lian Wen is the most popular teacher in Imperial Capital University, a genius in the physics world, the youngest physics professor in history, and a student of President Xiao Derong. If any of these titles were mentioned, the people in the Sun family would have to think twice and would be unlikely to make things difficult for Lian Wen.

"My identity? It's useless." Lian Wen didn't think his identity was that great. "I'll still use my power to bully others."

Master Zhao: "...You are too modest."

Li Cenyuan stood aside, listening to their conversation quietly, his eyes involuntarily falling on Lian Wen, as if thinking about something.

Through their conversation, Li Cenyuan came to a conclusion——

Lian Wen has an unusual background.

"What's the situation now?" asked Master Zhao.

Compared to Lian Wen, Master Zhao's reputation is much more famous. He is a black belt master of the Wushu Association. He has represented the country in competitions and won countless awards. He is a person who has truly brought glory to the country.

The police knew Master Zhao. When they saw him asking the question, they straightened their backs and answered respectfully, "Master Zhao, the evidence is not favorable to Mr. Li, and the Sun family is not willing to give in. We are in a difficult position."

Master Zhao: "Does the video count as evidence?"

Lian Wen: "Hasn't the video been deleted?"

Master Zhao smiled slyly, reached into his pocket and took out his cell phone. He opened it and said proudly, "The files on the Internet have indeed been deleted, but some of us saved them in advance. We originally planned to study them, but we didn't expect them to come in handy."

As he spoke, he handed his phone to the police, and the video that caused the uproar was playing on the screen.

After that, Master Zhao turned to Li Cenyuan, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a righteous look: "Although you don't want to join the association, this is fate. We will definitely help you if we can."

Li Cenyuan glanced at Lian Wen and thanked him sincerely: "Thank you."

The police took the phone and hurriedly checked the evidence. However, Li Cenyuan still had to take the statement and could not escape.

Faced with such strong evidence, the matter finally came to a fair conclusion. Li Cenyuan was judged to have acted in self-defense and was not required to bear any responsibility.

The Sun family and a dozen of his younger brothers need to be detained in the police station for a few days for provoking trouble and reflect on their actions.
