Only after being reborn did I realize how fascinating the world of the rich is.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was a little awkward, Tang Shanshan quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

"Alright, alright, we're all on the same side. At a time like this, in this situation, you still have the mood to argue? You two met for the first time, with no grudges between you. I'm really impressed by you. Are you two natural enemies?"

Le Xin'er rolled her eyes at Tang Shanshan and said irritably, "What are you talking about? Who said he was doing that kind of thing? Humph, you say I'm unprofessional? I'll make you open your dog eyes wide and see my professional abilities."

Your case will soon be transferred to the procuratorate for prosecution. Don't worry, I will prepare sufficient materials and file an appeal with the procuratorate to secure your release on bail.

"I refuse to believe it! Such a simple case, with such ordinary details, and considering your social status, that I, a young lady, couldn't even get bail? Then I've wasted my time in that detention center!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Then I'll leave my matter to Attorney Le!"

Not long after, Li Xiaofeng was transferred from the detention center to the detention house.

Once inside the detention center, the environment was nothing like that of a detention house. There wasn't even a single bed; ten people shared a large communal bed, with a squat toilet at the very end, which was the worst spot.

Because Li Xiaofeng was the last one there, he was forced to sleep next to the squat toilet and endure the unpleasant smell.

At this moment, a young man in his twenties or thirties with a muscular build walked up to Li Xiaofeng and asked, "Kid, what brings you in here?"

The person sleeping next to him quickly reminded him, "This is Brother Xiao, he's our shopkeeper, he's in charge of everything here, hurry up and call him Brother Xiao!"

Having just arrived, Li Xiaofeng didn't want to cause trouble or get into any problems. He just wanted to get through this period peacefully and wait for Le Xiner to process his bail pending trial.

So he smiled slightly and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone, "Hello, Brother Xiao!"

Brother Xiao said impatiently, "Ask how you got in!"

“I was wronged. They said I went against the women’s wishes, but I had no reason to do so!”

Brother Xiao sneered: "So that's why you came in. Do you know the rules here?"

Rumors had been circulating in society for some time that newcomers would be disciplined by cell bosses or similar figures who assisted the prison guards in management and wielded some power.

To facilitate management, prison guards, within their authority, would often give these cell bosses some face.

Setting rules for newcomers is often taken for granted, mainly because the people detained here come from all walks of life and are often unruly. Making them obey management is the first lesson they learn upon entering.

Detention centers can be considered transitional units. After a period of rehabilitation here, once the people inside are sentenced and sent to formal prisons, they will be able to adapt to the prison environment better.

Li Xiaofeng smiled and nodded: "I've heard about it, but can we make a deal? I'll pay to get me a better spot, so I can be more comfortable until I'm released on bail?"

He wasn't some greenhorn or a brainless person who'd read too many novels. If a problem could be solved with money, there was no need to fight these people head-on.

They say those who have nothing to lose are fearless, and he's already wearing shoes, and high-end leather shoes at that. It's not worth it to fight with these jailers and thugs over such trivial matters, or even offend the prison guards.

You say someone bullied you? Bah! You're already here, what are you talking about bullying?

In their eyes, you're just disobedient, and you deserve to be beaten. If you still don't submit, they'll just lock you in solitary confinement and starve you half to death.

"How much money are you planning to offer? Do you have the money?" Seeing how young he was, Brother Xiao was a little suspicious.

"Name your price!"

"According to the rules, you can top up your account here, but there's a limit. Each person can only top up a maximum of one thousand yuan. If you top it up, I'll protect you!"

“Okay!” Li Xiaofeng agreed without hesitation.

"Really?" Brother Xiao looked him up and down.

In this day and age, a thousand yuan is not a small amount. In many small counties, the average person only earns three or four hundred yuan a month.

Li Xiaofeng smiled and nodded, saying, "Do you have any way to talk to the prison guards and let me call a friend to top up your account? Once the call is made, the money can be in your account that same day!"

A thousand yuan is nothing to Li Xiaofeng these days; he might not even bend down to pick it up if it were thrown on the ground.

Brother Xiao nodded: "I'll give it a try when the discipline officers arrive, but you'll still need to submit your own application!"

"Of course, no problem!" With this opportunity to make a call, he could also ask about the situation outside. It only cost a thousand yuan, which was a great deal.

Then, he smiled and said to Brother Xiao, "Brother Xiao, don't worry, the money is definitely not a problem. My seat is too smelly and too crowded. Can you give me your seat?"

"You want my seat?"

"Brother Xiao, don't misunderstand. I don't want your management position, I want the place where you sleep. I'm offering you this money to buy a place, you should get a good deal!"

I believe that if it were someone else, they definitely wouldn't have spent this much money. At most, they would have spent some money to buy you a pack of instant noodles or a sausage, wouldn't you say?

Brother Xiao thought for a moment, then snorted coldly: "I can give you this position, but if you lie to me, you'll be in big trouble!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said in a nonchalant tone, "Brother Xiao, do you know who I am?"

"I don't care who you are. Now that you're here, whether you're a tiger or a dragon, you'd better lie down and coil up!"

"What you said is true, but I still have to say that I am a dragon that you never dared to imagine before. My company is valued at over 20 billion."

I have money and can hire the best lawyers to clear my name. My lawyer is currently processing my bail application, and I should be out soon.

"And I was indeed framed and wronged. Think about it, with my status, if I wanted any woman, I could just snap my fingers. Why would I need to do *that*?"

Brother Xiao's eyes widened, and he said in surprise, "You've earned two billion at such a young age? You must be bragging!"

"I have no reason to lie to you. I am Li Xiaofeng, the chairman of Wanzhong Media. The company may be going public soon. In addition to Wanzhong Media, I have many other businesses under my name. If you don't believe me, you can ask the guard to check my background!"

A thousand yuan might not even be enough for me to have a meal. If you treat me well, I might be able to help take care of your family after I get out.

"Tell me, with all the power you have, you've managed to exchange for so many bargaining chips with me. Isn't that a great deal?"
