Zhizhou: \"You're An Official, But You're Raising A Bunch Of Demonesses?

Chapter 36: Who is Bai Yu? Come out!

"Li shopkeeper, don't you think this tavern is too small?"

"The customers are waiting outside. If this continues, the people we've gathered will gradually disperse..."

Bai Yu smiled and chatted with the shopkeeper, who had left a good impression on him.

"Um... Mr. Bai, are you suggesting that I expand?"

"But expanding would require closing down, and I think it would also affect business..."

The shopkeeper just wanted to chat with Bai Yu, he didn't come seeking advice.

But now that Bai Yu brought it up himself,

Naturally, he was willing to listen attentively!

With such great talent,

Just listening to a few words from him would be like a revelation, enough to change a person's destiny.

"No, no, no!"

Bai Yu shook his head gently. "What I mean is, you might as well acquire other places, build your brand, and establish a chain."

"Little by little, spread your name throughout the entire Lieyang City, and even the whole country..."

"Hiss!"

Bai Yu's words sounded light and ethereal,

But the shopkeeper's eyes suddenly contracted, and he couldn't help but indulge in the imagination.

His breathing became slightly heavier,

"Mr. Bai, what should I do..."

The excited shopkeeper hadn't finished asking his question.

Just then,

"Boom!"

There was a commotion downstairs.

"Who is Bai Yu!!!"

"Come out quickly!"

It seemed that something had happened,

The loud questioning voice mixed with the noisy disturbance of the diners.

"Bai Yu?"

The shopkeeper frowned.

Of all times!

He still wanted to have a good discussion with Mr. Bai about the future direction!

Who is causing trouble?

"Mr. Bai, I have something to attend to. Please excuse me for now."

He smiled at Bai Yu and stood up.

"I'll go with you."

Bai Yu also stood up with him.

"Actually, I forgot to tell you earlier, I lied before. My real name is Bai Yu, Bai Yu Tang is just a pseudonym."

"Using a pseudonym when going out, to avoid being stabbed."

Li the shopkeeper: ...

Wow, I didn't even know your real name!

What about being friends?!

What about trust?!

Can we still hang out together?!

Li the shopkeeper is very hurt!

...

"Who is this?"

"Oh... it's the Fourth Young Master of the Xin Yuan Mansion! What is he doing here?"

"Bai Yu? Who is that? If you provoke this guy, it won't end well!"

"He even brought officials with him?"

"Clearly, he's the one who should be caught!"

...

In the first floor of the tavern,

Amidst the noise,

A young man in luxurious clothing, accompanied by a few servants and officials dressed as constables, barged in.

They shouted, demanding to see someone named Bai Yu.

The surrounding customers, upon seeing these unexpected guests,

Couldn't help but whisper and discuss in low voices.

Finally, they found him!

Yang Shancheng didn't care about the gazes of others,

He just scanned the tavern with burning eyes, his anger barely concealed.

To this day, he couldn't forget.

The day of the imperial examination was the most embarrassing day of his life,

Not only did he fail to charm the beautiful woman,

He was also outperformed by a poor scholar.

What's more, he was pushed into the river in a daze.

Not knowing how to swim, he nearly drowned,

Finally, I was rescued after great difficulty.

But because my body had been depleted by alcohol and lust, I suffered from a cold for seven days and almost lost my life.

It was so embarrassing, so terrible!

And all of this was because of that scholar and that beautiful woman.

This grudge cannot go unanswered by a gentleman!

When has the fourth son of the Xin Yuan Mansion ever suffered such humiliation?

Immediately, he began investigating and planning his revenge!

Finally, he found this place.

He must make that poor scholar pay the price!

And...that beauty, he wants her too!

"Who is Bai Yu?!"

"Come out, quickly!"

He scanned everyone present and shouted loudly.

Several servants and constables around him echoed his words.

"Gentlemen, why have you come to this humble tavern?"

"We don't have any criminals here! There must be a misunderstanding!"

The innkeeper sincerely wanted to protect Bai Yu and stepped forward with a friendly smile.

"It's you!"

"It's definitely you!"

"Bind him for me!"

However, before he could finish speaking,

Despite the huge difference in status, Yang Shancheng didn't even spare him a glance.

Immediately, his gaze locked onto Bai Yu, who was coming down from upstairs.

Even if this unlucky scholar turned into ashes, he would still recognize him.

His eyes were filled with raging anger, his gaze burning, firmly fixed on Bai Yu, as he commanded the surrounding constables.

"Misunderstanding! It's a misunderstanding~"

The innkeeper shouted loudly.

However, the others paid him no attention,

And simply pushed him aside.

"Criminal Bai Yu, we received a report that you forcibly abducted a woman and attempted murder! Come with us!"

Several constables with knives at their waists surrounded Bai Yu, glancing at him obliquely, and said coldly.

"Hey!"

"Hey, alright!"

Bai Yu hasn't found the person he's prepared to retaliate against yet.

Instead, this person has come to his door!

Although it seems like he's trapped, surrounded by a few constables,

His expression is very calm, showing no concern at all.

He even chuckled lightly,

And looked with interest at Yang Shancheng, who was staring at him not far away.

Yang Shancheng felt a tingling sensation in his heart for no reason.

Bai Yu asked the constables, "Do you have an official arrest warrant to arrest me?"

An arrest warrant needs to be recorded in an official document.

This trip was only to help Young Master Yang with a small matter,

So there definitely isn't one!

The constables coldly said, "Stop talking! Come with us!"

"Hey, little constables, such great authority!"

Bai Yu chuckled lightly, "Arresting someone without a warrant is equivalent to abusing your power. If caught, you'll be executed!"

"If you all are so eager to curry favor with the powerful, have you considered the consequences if you arrest the wrong person...?"

He squinted his eyes, his smile light and casual, revealing rows of white teeth.

Suddenly... it gave people a chilling and indifferent feeling.

For no reason, the constables couldn't help but shiver.

It was as if a cold wind brushed past their necks, inexplicably giving a sense of foreboding.

They had investigated before,

This person is nothing more than a poor scholar from elsewhere!

"Stop listening to his nonsense! I reported to the officials that he intentionally tried to kill me, pushed me into the river, and even forcibly took away my beloved woman. Such a wicked and evil person, if you don't arrest him, what are you waiting for?!"

"And, what about that woman?!"

Yang Shancheng stepped forward and couldn't help but shout angrily.

He fabricated his words, but showed no concern at all.

Some people who understood how he operated:...

It's the first time they've seen such shamelessness!

Young Master Yang, you've done so much in terms of forcibly taking women!

How come, standing here, saying such things...

It's truly ironic!
