"Mr. Zhang, let me go with you!" Teacher Chen came out of the apartment building in high heels and shouted behind him.

Zhang Yunhe stopped and turned to look at Chen Xiangling who was jogging towards him, panting. She was only wearing a winter cheongsam and high heels, revealing her calves in stockings.

He shook his head and said, "Mr. Chen, thank you for coming to tell me about Huilan, but it's very late now, the temperature outside is very low, and you are wearing so little that it will be easy to get frozen. You should go back first. I will ask her to contact you after Huilan is rescued!"

Chen Xiangling quickly said, "It's okay. I'm used to dressing like this. Besides, Huilan was arrested by the police station to protect me. I would feel uneasy if I didn't go!"

"This... okay!" Zhang Yunhe could only agree reluctantly. It was not easy for him to reject Chen Xiangling's sincerity, but because Chen Xiangling was with him, it was very inconvenient for him to act.

At this time, the street was bustling with people and cars. Zhang Yunhe found a rickshaw and asked Chen Xiangling to get in.

"Master, go to the police station on Pétain Road!" Chen Xiangling shouted to the driver before Zhang Yunhe could.

Zhang Yunhe quickly stopped him, saying, "Wait, let's not go to the Pétain Road Police Station first, let's go to the Huang Mansion!"

The driver turned around and asked, "Sir, are you talking about the Huang Mansion, where Mr. Huang, one of the three tycoons, lives?"

"Yes, run faster!" Zhang Yunhe replied.

"Okay, both of you sit tight!" the driver agreed and started driving the cart.

Chen Xiangling turned her head and whispered, "Mr. Zhang, are you trying to get help through Boss Huang's connections? But I heard that Boss Huang has retired and isn't really in charge anymore. Will it help to ask him? It would be better to go directly to the police station and find the person in charge!"

Zhang Yunhe said, "Today's parade is no small matter. The average police captains and superintendents in the police station certainly wouldn't have the guts to get involved in such a matter. Even if we bribe them, it won't help. They might even take the money and fail to get the job done, only to waste time!"

"Boss Huang has indeed lived a secluded life now, and his influence in the police station is not as strong as before, but he still has connections and contacts. If we can find him and get him out, that would be great. If not, we can get some information from him!"

Not long after, the two of them arrived at Huang Mansion in a rickshaw.

After getting off the car, Zhang Yunhe paid the fare and sent the driver away. He came to the gate of Huang's mansion and bowed to the two men guarding the gate. He said, "Please tell Mr. Huang that Zhang Yunhe, the comprador of Yihua Foreign Company, wants to see him for something. This is a small gift. Take it and have a cup of tea, you two brothers!"

After saying that, he threw five dollars over.

The man on the left immediately caught the ocean, clasped his fists and said with a smile, "It's Mr. Zhang. Please wait a moment, Mr. Zhang. I'll go report to Mr. Huang!"

"Good work!"

After a while, the man came out and clasped his fists towards Zhang Yunhe and said, "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Huang invites you two in. Please!"

"Thank you!"

It was Chen Xiangling's first time to come to the Huang Mansion and deal with Boss Huang, who was involved in both the black and white worlds. She was curious and a little reserved.

The two followed the man to a spacious and bright main room. Boss Huang, with his head bald, was sitting on a Huanghuali armchair watching the two come in.

"I'm really sorry to bother Mr. Huang at night. This is a small gift. I hope Mr. Huang will accept it!" Zhang Yunhe said as he took out a small box from his coat pocket. Inside the box were four small yellow croakers.

A man came over, took the box and walked up to Mr. Huang to open it.

After reading it, Boss Huang smiled slightly, waved his hand to let his men take it away, and said to Zhang Yunhe with a smile: "Brother Zhang, your business at Yihua Foreign Company is booming. I have heard that too. I wonder if there is anything I can help you with tonight?"

"I've always heard that Boss Huang is a man of integrity and loyalty. Seeing him today, I can see his reputation is truly well-deserved. To be honest, this morning, some students and teachers were marching in the streets and were dispersed by the police. Some were even arrested. Unfortunately, my wife also suffered this unforeseen misfortune!"

"I know that Mr. Huang has a lot of influence in the police station, so I came to visit him. I also hope that Mr. Huang could do me a favor and give a heads up to the police station at Pétain Road to see if they can get my wife released. She's a woman and she really can't stand the pain of imprisonment!"

"Boss Huang, tell me how much it will cost to bribe the police station. I'll do my best to raise the money. I just hope my wife can be released from the police station tonight!"

After hearing this, Boss Huang thought for a moment and then looked at Zhang Yunhe and asked, "Brother Zhang, did your sister-in-law really just suffer an unprovoked disaster?"

Zhang Yunhe immediately patted his chest and said, "Of course, I guarantee it with my life and my personal property. She was just passing by when the police mistook her for a student protester and arrested her. My wife is already in her twenties, how could she still be a student?"

Boss Huang nodded and said, "If they were just passing through and suffered an unexpected disaster, it's easy to deal with. If they were arrested because of the parade, it would be a bit troublesome, but it's not impossible to do, it just costs a little money. But if they were arrested as underground party members, it would be a big problem, and there's nothing I can do!"

"How about this, I'll make a phone call first. Brother Zhang, please sit down for a moment. By the way, what's your wife's name?"

Zhang Yunhe quickly stood up and said, "My wife's name is Liu Huilan!"

Boss Huang nodded, walked to the next room with his crutches to make a phone call.

Chen Xiangling, who was standing aside, was always nervous and didn't even take a sip of the tea on the table.

Zhang Yunhe was able to keep his composure.

Not long after, Boss Huang came out of the wing leaning on a cane. He smiled and said to Zhang Yunhe, "Brother Zhang, I've already checked with the Beidang Road Police Station. Inspector Cheng Ziqing said that a woman named Liu Huilan was indeed arrested at the parade site this morning. She looks to be in her twenties. I'm sure she's your wife!"

"The matter has been thoroughly investigated. Your wife has indeed suffered an unprovoked disaster. You should rush to the police station on rue Pétain. Cheng Ziqing happens to be there right now. I've already made arrangements with him. Prepare two pieces of paper for him, and he'll take you there to retrieve the man!"

Zhang Yunhe was overjoyed upon hearing this and hurriedly bowed to Boss Huang, "Thank you very much, Boss Huang, for your help. I'll take my wife home and recuperate for a few days before returning to thank you again!"

Boss Huang smiled and waved his hand, saying, "I'm only doing this for money. You came to see me and gave me such a generous gift. I can help, so I won't refuse. If you have any problems in the future, Brother Zhang, please feel free to come to me again!"

"Of course, of course. Everyone knows that anything Boss Huang promises can be accomplished. In that case, I'll take my leave. Please stay, stay!"

After coming out of Huang Mansion with Chen Xiangling, Zhang Yunhe immediately hailed a rickshaw, and the two of them drove directly to the police station to find Inspector Cheng Ziqing.
