"Aren't you supposed to be working in either traffics or homicide Qiao Meng? What are you doing here?"
The police officers that had come were none other than Qiao Meng and her partner, who he had never seen before.
"I had the chance to join the homicide, but after the incident last time, I realized that I still need to temper myself, so I'm a patrol cop now. But anyway, what are you doing here? Is the scammer the bankers talking about you?"
The banker grew nervous as it seemed like Wang Ming and Qiao Meng knew each other, though they still didn't feel that scared as they could just apologize to get things over with. If the police officers sides with Wang Ming.
"Yes and no, I wanted to come here to get a 20 million yuan loan."
When Wang Ming mentioned 20 million yuan, both Qiao Meng and her colleague felt dumbfounded. Even though they had heard the details from the bankers. Seeing their shocked faces, Wang Ming kept talking.
"When I told the banker my request, she got her manager here and the guards to detain me. I have done nothing wrong, unless asking for a loan is illegal now and considered fraud."
Qiao Meng looked at the bankers, who just smiled nervously back at her. This differed totally from the story she had heard from the bankers. The bankers had told her that Wang Ming forced the female banker to issue him a loan by threatening to rape her, then kill her family. There's no way Wang Ming would do something like that, but to be fair, she still questioned him before questioning the bankers further.
"Are you sure Wang Ming? The female banker said you threatened to rape her if she didn't give you a loan. How did the conversation really go Wang Ming? Did they ask you about your occupation and how much money you earn per month? Did you really threaten her?"
Wang Ming smiled, hearing what Qiao Meng said. Even though she was clearly acting impartial, but she gave him a chance to clear his case, but also expose the bankers.
"No, they didn't if they did. Then they would have figured out that I'm more than qualified for the loan. I earn roughly 1 million yuan a week, 52 million yuan a year before taxes. That's not even counting what I'm going to earn from the meat shop I bought! I only wanted a loan because I have projects I want to do now."
After taking a deep breath, Wang Ming then said.
"Their just a bunch of judging clowns! They didn't even give me a chance to explain or told me what I had done before they called the police. I came here today to get a loan of 20 million yuan. That's the only thing I said. The banker isn't pretty enough for me to have any dirty thoughts about her, but if I wanted to pressure and threaten her, wouldn't the Wang Gang be a much better threat?"
None of the persons in the room could believe their ears when Wang Ming told them how much money he was actually earning. For the bankers he just looked too poor to earn such an amount of money every month and for Qiao Meng, even though she knew that Wang Ming had his own restaurant and had even heard a lot about it in the media. She didn't think his income would be so insane.
Though his money wasn't enough, when he mentioned his relations to Wang Gang, the bankers started sweating. They didn't need to worry about the police since they need evidence to sue them. But the underworld doesn't need evidence if they think you've done anything bad then they're going to show you it by breaking your bones.
The most shocked person was definitely Qiao Meng, as she had thought that Wang Ming's a good guy, but now he has ties with the underworld? She realized that she didn't actually know anything about his good friend of hers. But she wouldn't judge him badly yet. She had met many people from the underworld before, and not all of them are bad people.
Before Qiao Meng could ask Wang Ming about his ties to Wang Gang, the manager asked first. Even though this bank isn't in the Wang Gang territory, this bank is so small if someone from the Wang Gang wanted to burn it down, no one would care.
"Sir! I'm sorry, but are you from the Wang Gang?"
The manager wanted to probe Wang Ming's position in the Wang Gang first, if he wasn't anything special then he would just let Wang Ming go since he didn't want any conflicts with the gang. But if Wang Ming holds an influential position in Wang Gang, then he would need to do damage control.
"Hmm, I'm not really from the Wang Gang."
Hearing this made the manager relieved maybe Wang Ming had just used Wang Gang as an example earlier and he didn't have any connections with them. But then…
"But, my little brother is a small boss in Wang Gang, he owns the Feng Zhong market. I don't know if you have heard about it? I don't really consider myself a part of the gang, but my little brother wanted me to hold an honorary position in Wang Gang he never told me the name of the position. But he's a small boss, and he said that my role equals that so it means I'm also a small boss."
""WHAT!"
This time Qiao Meng finally got the word first.
"Wang Ming, are you a part of the underworld? Have you done anything illegal, if you have then as a friend I hope that you stop. I won't pursue things you have done in the past, but I sincerely hope you stop."
The reason Qiao Meng got the word first, was that the bankers and the guards just couldn't say anything they thought they couldn't be more shocked, but yet it happened. Qiao Meng's colleague looked like he didn't even listen or care about anything.
"No Qiao Meng, I have done nothing illegal, the only thing I've done is killing a person to save you. I thought we knew each other better than this. It's an honorary position, even though I'm tied with the Wang Gang at the same time I'm not. Not all people from the underworld are bad people either Qiao Meng, even though some breaks the rules here and there, they are still good people."
Qiao Meng realized that she had gone too far. She even told herself earlier to not judge Wang Ming, but she slipped up. She still remembers when she was young and her family were in debt because of a scam, it was a man from the underworld that helped them clean everything up.
"I'm sorry, Wang Ming. I'm just concerned, I know you're a good person."
"Don't worry, I accept your apology, but can we finish with this case? I still want to find a place that can get me a loan."
