Reborn as a Noble’s Son

Chapter 417: Chapter 399: Backing Down_1
Around nine-thirty in the evening, nearly ninety police cars gathered around the Golden Splendid Entertainment Club, a shocking sight that immediately drew the attention of passers-by.

At the entrance of a sixteen-story building, a host in a police uniform held a microphone in front of the camera and pointed to the building behind him, saying, “At nine tonight, under the leadership of our Bureau Chief and Party Secretary, Chen Le, Liangxi City Public Security Bureau officially kicked off this year’s crackdown. According to our reporters, this year, the focus of Liangxi City Public Security Bureau will be on cracking down on indecency and illegality in entertainment venues, ensuring the overall security governance of the entire city. All district and city branches have signed letters of accountability. This is Zhou Xin reporting for the legal channel of Jiangbei Provincial Television Station from Liangxi!”

The police from the Liangxi City Public Security Bureau acted swiftly. Arranged in advance, police cars surrounded the Golden Splendid building as soon as they arrived, blocking all exits, and preventing anyone from escaping.

Simultaneously, under Chen Le’s leadership, two hundred officers swiftly stormed the building. Screams immediately erupted from the bar and singing hall on the first floor.

“Leave a few people to control this area and arrest all these dancing girls. Everyone else, sweep the floors.” Chen Le ordered in a stern, expressionless face.

In less than fifteen minutes, officers like Wang Yaowu and He Qingjun who had led the raid upstairs came down one after another. Even the normally calm Wang Yaowu had a smile on his face. He approached Chen Le and whispered, “Chief, we’ve caught a big fish. In a box on the fourth floor, we found some gangsters using drugs. According to their confession, these drugs came from the Golden Splendid. Additionally, in the bathing center on the sixth floor, we caught nineteen pairs of men and women engaged in transactional sex. Among them, two are state officials, one a section chief of the city’s transportation bureau and the other a deputy director of the Liangjiang District Transportation Bureau.”

At this moment, Chen Le was not surprised at all. Given Golden Splendid’s background, as the entertainment venue owned by Fan Changsheng, the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee’s daughter, it has become the most famous, safest place for entertainment in Liangxi City. Nobody expected the city’s Public Security Bureau to make a move here. It’s quite normal to catch officials within the system here.

“Chief, we caught another big fish on the eighth floor where a crowd was gambling. We seized more than a million yuan in gambling money, and thirty-two gamblers. All of these people are now under our control. What are your orders?” He Qingjun also approached.

Within the City Public Security Bureau, He Qingjun is a man Chen Le deeply trusts. In the entire bureau, apart from Feng Kuang, it’s He Qingjun who Chen Le trusts most. As the chief of Xiliang District Public Security Sub-Bureau, he is Chen Le’s top lieutenant.

At this moment, outside, a car pulled up; a black Mercedes S600, its sleek body and shiny paint glistening under the nighttime lights.

Several bodyguards in black suits escorted a young woman out of the car. The woman, with her short hair that reached her ears and average height of about 1.65 meters, bore a resemblance to Fan Changsheng.

As soon as she walked in, her gaze landed on Chen Le, her face showing no sign of nervousness or concern. Chen Le also began to speculate that this woman was probably Fan Lili, owner of Golden Splendid and daughter of the Municipal Party Committee Secretary, Fan Changsheng.

“I’m sorry, Chief Chen, I’ve been a little neglectful lately due to heavy work commitments. My father recently asked me to help out with some matters back home. I hope you won’t be upset, Brother Chen. I’ll apologize properly another time,” Fan Lili said with boldness as she approached.

Being the daughter of the Municipal Party Committee Secretary, Fan Lili has had no obstacles in Liangxi city, and at the age of 25, she has inherited quite a large family business. Naturally, it was also this that fostered Fan Lili’s character. As soon as she started talking, she brought up her father’s influence. As far as Fan Lili was concerned, with such backup, no department in the city would dare cross her.

So brazen in her attempts to win over state officials in the presence of so many, Fan Lili was truly a unique character. Surely, she must have been confident that no one present would dare speak out.

Chen Le remained calm and simply asked, “And you are?”

At this, Fan Lili’s face changed. She stared at Chen Le and said, “Chen Le, don’t overstep your boundaries. You know exactly who I am, and you know very well who owns this place. Don’t think that just because you’ve arrested some people here that you’ve got something on me. Nie Zhenbang wouldn’t even do this, what makes you think you can? You’re welcome to shut down my place, but let me tell you, it could open again tomorrow. Believe it or not, you are welcome to try.”

Fan Lili’s words made Chen Le’s face change as well, but he just chuckled internally. He thought it amusing that Fan Changsheng, a man who had been savvy his entire life, could actually have such a foolish daughter. He wondered how she ever managed to run such a huge business.
