Chapter 2769 - 2831: You Need to Learn Too

Jumping from the twelfth floor isn’t something an ordinary person can do. Even if someone did it, they would at least break their arms and legs, if not die. Escaping would be out of the question. So, if the police’s investigation is accurate, the culprit is probably not an ordinary person.

Li Yifei knows he didn’t do it, and also knows he didn’t send anyone to do it. So how did Zhao Xianjin die? Who killed him?

"Are you sure you want to investigate this case thoroughly?" Li Yifei suddenly asked. His tone shifted, almost catching the people opposite him off guard.

The Deputy Bureau nodded and said, "If such a vicious case isn’t thoroughly investigated, the police’s credibility will be affected, and our colleagues will also be influenced."

"As you say, if someone really jumped directly from the twelfth floor, then it definitely wasn’t done by an ordinary person. The scope of the investigation would be narrowed, but it will also be harder to track. I know I didn’t do it, nor did my people. Whether you believe it or not, I know it myself!"

"Let’s assume, Mr. Li, that you didn’t do this. Then who did? Can you provide us with a lead? After all, if it wasn’t your doing, then someone is deliberately framing you and intentionally murdered Zhao Xianjin, which makes the nature of the crime even worse."

"Haha, how can I give you an answer? I have so many enemies; I can’t guess who did it. All I know is that it wasn’t me. For me, Zhao Xianjin, such a disgusting pervert and vile person—removing him does not satisfy the police, and prison won’t suffice. Dead, he serves as a warning to many perverts!" Li Yifei laughed, stood up, patted the other’s shoulder, and said, "But this is not my business. I hope you solve the case soon and find the real culprit. Also, if this was done by a cultivator, it will be difficult for ordinary people like you to uncover. You will need to seek help from relevant personnel."

The Deputy Bureau nodded slowly, sighing inwardly. He truly couldn’t do anything about Li Yifei, and using force was not an option either. Oh, to be precise, if they tried to use force, it would surely be them in trouble; that was certain.

So after a stiff nod, he said, "Alright, we’ll just head back for now. Thank you, comrades from the Provincial Department and the City Bureau. You’ve been troubled."

"I won’t see you off. Safe journey," Li Yifei’s voice came through.

These people came in a frenzy and left just as quickly. If it were a normal person, it would be a psychological burden, but Li Yifei felt nothing. Once they left, he raised an eyebrow and continued to play with the children.

Online discussions continued to grow, but with Zhao Xianjin dead, many people felt relieved. Evil met its due, and it was better than seeing wicked people go free. Many also began to say that this was the fate of a pervert, something against natural laws and abhorred by the people.

However, some people, pretending to be insiders, claimed that an old soldier did it. The old soldier’s influence in Ning Province and Mile City was supreme, suppressing all others. Seeing the other’s arrogance, they struck and killed him, even posting some so-called details claiming the old soldier had told them.

"Investigate this person for me. They’re acting so convincingly, like it’s true. I feel they are very suspicious." It was Lin Qiong speaking. She had gotten off work early today and found Chu Xiaoyao with a screenshot after arriving home. The women in the family had also been following this matter for some time, especially since it directly pertained to their privacy and safety.

"No problem, leave it to me." Chu Xiaoyao patted her chest and said. She had recently been impressively demonstrating her abilities, which made her happy, though tired. It wasn’t as easy as imagined, often requiring meticulous analytical skills, logical thinking, and a grasp of details to trace leads, even with advanced technology; otherwise, clues could be missed.

Perverts aren’t stupid. Most people might be careless and unconcerned about leaking information, but some, especially those with high education and knowledge, appear proper on the surface while secretly engaging in deceitful acts; they certainly prefer to hide.

For this reason, Chu Xiaoyao was a bit exhausted, and her friends were working tirelessly alongside her, completely voluntarily.

Information revealed that the person was a reporter from Black Province, working for a small newspaper and mainly focused on internet platforms. Chu Xiaoyao found nothing special about them, but this person seemed to frequently write eye-catching pieces, making up stories, and writing anything that came to mind, making them quite infamous in industry circles.

After Lin Qiong learned the result, she snorted and said, "Such people are despicable, talking nonsense. Xiaoyao, give him a little punishment."

"I already did it. Anyone who dares slander our husband won’t get away easily," Chu Xiaoyao raised her chin and snorted. She didn’t say how he was punished, but since it was done, she certainly wouldn’t let him off easily.

Li Yifei was letting his son ride on his back like a horse. The children lined up, counting their numbers, waiting for the horse to return and for their turn to ride. Regardless of gender, anyone who wanted a ride could sign up, but they had to be patient; only when it was their turn could they ride. To earn a ride, they had to say "I love Dad" to Li Yifei and give him a kiss.

Originally, several of the women were opposed because Li Yifei was the Li Family Head, and as the family head, he should maintain a certain dignity, not giving children piggyback rides for over an hour. Even Xu Yingying disagreed, but ultimately, Li Yifei himself was willing. Playtime was playtime, and it was really just playing with the kids. Besides, they would grow up, and this was just a one-time play session, so it wasn’t too much.

Thus, in the spacious playroom, Li Yifei transformed into the horse. Of course, it was just for about an hour. The children eventually tired and went for their afternoon naps, while Li Yifei picked up some files to read. Li Xinyue and Song Lianyao sat beside him, one massaging his thigh, the other coming around to rub his shoulders.

"Ladies, why are you being so... attentive today?" Li Yifei asked after finishing, setting down the laptop. He had just been looking at the situation in Africa. Thanks to his involvement, Bare-ass General and their forces were expanding quickly and stabilizing almost half the country, with hints of declaring a nation soon. As the mastermind behind them, Li Yifei still maintained control over the two generals. They still revered him like a deity, and it was unlikely they would rebel in the future, as Li Yifei hadn’t exploited them. On the contrary, he had provided so much help, from weapons to funding. With such a god-like figure behind them, the two were no fools; opposing him brought no benefits.

Of course, on their territory, Huaxia People engaged in business, developed mines and oil fields, fully protected and enjoying favorable terms. Even with such benefits, Bare-ass General and the others earned a lot, enough to cover military expenses and buy some advanced weapons for fighting.

Everything was progressing well. The major beneficiaries here were the African branches of several national enterprises. With the cooperation of Bare-ass General, they rapidly launched multiple projects, using local cheap labor to acquire significant resources for the country, continuously sent back home. Thus, they were also grateful to Li Yifei.

As for the Central Asian Arab Region, due to Li Yifei’s multiple interventions, he also helped Wu Shuwei complete various collaborations, especially in oil and gas field development projects, which were crucial for national policy-making. So far, progress was good, and with the forces Li Yifei nurtured locally, everything was fine. He had discouraged their intention to form a nation; making money quietly was best. Otherwise, attempting such ambition would bring military action from surrounding countries. It was better to garner as much as possible amidst competing forces, avoiding annihilation, which would also affect the interests of Li Yifei and Wu Shuwei’s company.

Li Yifei didn’t need to manage these affairs often. Receiving periodic updates was sufficient, as everything was already on track.

Overall, everything was very good. Although Li Yifei wasn’t gaining much, bringing benefits to the country and gaining leverage in international dealings was Li Yifei’s concern. This is why the leaders had a good impression of him. While he could stir up some trouble, his heart was in the right place on major issues. His actions were beyond reproach. Even leaders not fond of him acknowledged his contributions.

Paired with support from people like Murong Yuanqing, as long as Li Yifei and the Li family didn’t make any major errors, the country wouldn’t act against them, no matter how large they grew, even if they became trillionaire magnates in the spotlight nationwide.

However, given the current scale and personnel configuration of the Li family, about two to three trillion is the limit. It’s difficult to break through further. Everyone’s experience is limited, as are their visions and capabilities. To cope with the ever-changing situation of the Li family, all the women in the family, responsible for commercial affairs, are continuously learning, recharging, and improving.

Even Li Yifei... he was required by several women to study, not martial arts or strategies, but purely basic commercial knowledge. Poor Li Yifei, who could fly planes and drive tanks, who was proficient in multiple languages, and had astonishing skills, but was actually not well-versed in systematic commercial theory and basic knowledge. As he looked at a dozen huge volumes in front of him, Li Yifei rubbed his temples, which explained why he was feeling melancholic in recent days—there was a good reason for it.
