At that moment, Director Zhang had already called the police, and it wouldn't be long before they would arrive. Ding Fan had originally intended to beat Director Zhang and Zhang Meijiao to death, but he abandoned the idea due to the sudden appearance of the Range Rover.

"Brother Fan, it really is you, I thought I was seeing things," a sporty girl dressed in athletic wear greeted Ding Fan as she got out of the Range Rover.

She was a beauty with a perfect figure, tall and with long legs, and fair skin. Although she was wearing sunglasses and her face wasn't completely visible, her appearance was still striking at first glance.

Despite the sunglasses deliberately concealing her face, Ding Fan recognized her immediately. This woman was Lin Zhanting's sister, Lin Qingqing.

Ding Fan hadn't expected to encounter Lin Qingqing here and offered her a slight smile in response.

"Sister Qingqing, who is this guy?"

Standing next to Lin Qingqing, another woman, no less beautiful, crossed her arms with an air of arrogance and scrutinized Ding Fan from head to toe. Dressed in a black leather jacket and pants, she exuded a somewhat cool vibe.

"Xu Rui, he's my friend," Lin Qingqing hurriedly introduced.

The beautiful woman called Xu Rui gave Ding Fan a quick once-over and then shifted her gaze away from him. In her eyes, Ding Fan was dressed plainly and looked somewhat disheveled. If not for Lin Qingqing, Xu Rui wouldn't have spared such a man a second glance.

"You two busybodies, this isn't your business; if you know what's good for you, get lost quickly. Don't come to regret it later," Zhang Meijiao, sitting on the ground, pointed at Lin Qingqing and Xu Rui as she spoke.

From the moment the two beauties got out of the car, Zhang Meijiao was enraged. Director Zhang had completely treated her like air, his eyes fixed on the two beauties. What infuriated her even more was that upon their arrival, instead of seeking anyone else, they headed straight for Ding Fan.

She had thought the Ding Family had fallen, and Ding Fan must be in a sorry state. Yet here he was, being approached by two such stunning beauties, which made her feel like banging her head against the wall to death. She had just said Ding Fan could only cozy up to roadside stones, but the beauties looking for him were far more attractive than she was.

Frustrated, Zhang Meijiao directly started cursing at the two beauties. In her view, with the support of the great director, even if something happened, Director Zhang would sort it out for her.

When Xu Rui heard what Zhang Meijiao had said, her eyes suddenly turned icy. Without any hesitation, she walked over, raised her foot, and kicked Zhang Meijiao in the face.

Bang!

Xu Rui's kick was not weak; Zhang Meijiao was sent sprawling on the ground with her nose shattered, her face covered in blood, looking extremely disheveled.

Observing from the side, Ding Fan was taken aback. Xu Rui, by appearances alone, was a very hot and fashionable beauty, with a somewhat proud disposition.

But he would have never expected such a glamorous woman to suddenly act so decisively. At that moment, Ding Fan thought Xu Rui was pretty cool.

Decisive and without any hesitation!

"What if I don't back down, what are you going to do then?" Xu Rui said to Zhang Meijiao.

"You... you..."

Perhaps because she was afraid after being kicked by Xu Rui, she suddenly didn't dare to say anything.

Seeing Zhang Meijiao quiet down, Xu Rui snorted coldly and returned somewhat nonchalantly to Lin Qingqing's side with her hands in her pockets.

Lin Qingqing looked at Xu Rui with a little annoyance. "Always causing trouble. If your dad finds out, I don't know how he's going to deal with you."

Xu Rui, unconcerned, pouted, her attitude clearly saying she could not care less.

"Brother Fan, what's going on here?" After speaking with Xu Rui, Lin Qingqing turned her head and asked Ding Fan.

"It's nothing, just ran into a couple of mad dogs," Ding Fan said casually.

Ding Fan could no longer just walk away. At this moment, he saw a police car approaching from not far away. His mind was quickly trying to figure out what to do next.

With Lin Qingqing and Xu Rui present, he couldn't just leave them and run away. With things having come to this, he could only take it one step at a time.

A police car stopped next to the crowd, and two police officers got out.

"Police, are you from ****? Why did it take you so long to come? These three people bullied me; you need to deal with them properly!"

By the time the two police officers in uniform arrived in front of the group, Zhang Meijiao, who had already shut up, started to make a scene again.

"What's going on here?" One of the officers frowned, having been greeted by a tirade from Zhang Meijiao, which would naturally put anyone in a foul mood.

"Is your brain not working? I said those three people bullied me, and now you come asking me what's the matter. I think you don't want to work at the police station anymore, do you know who my man is? My man is the famous Director Zhang of Huaxia Country!" Zhang Meijiao said, pointing at Director Zhang, who was still lying on the ground not far away.

Director Zhang, the two officers were already quite annoyed by the rant they had received from Zhang Meijiao, but upon hearing that a public figure was involved, they restrained their emotions. After all, they were just ordinary officers and couldn't afford to provoke such influential people.

"Officer, I am Director Zhang. These three people have assaulted someone, and you can't let them get away with it. If you handle this well, I will make sure the media comes to interview you specifically," Director Zhang struggled to sit up and speak.

Before the police had arrived, he understood it was best to just lie there quietly to avoid getting beaten. But once the police were here, he thought it was time to act...

"Are you Zhang Jinbiao?"

Just as Director Zhang was carrying on in a threatening manner, Lin Qingqing asked from the side.

"Huh?" Director Zhang, startled by Lin Qingqing's question, noticed not many knew his real name. He quickly looked at Lin Qingqing. "You? Who are you?"

As Lin Qingqing was wearing sunglasses, and no matter what, he couldn't have imagined that the big star Lin Qingqing would appear in such a place, he didn't recognize her right away.

At that moment, Lin Qingqing didn't continue to hide her identity; she confidently took off her sunglasses. "Zhang Jinbiao, you're doing quite well for yourself. Since when did you stop being a crew member and become a famous director?"

Lin Qingqing!

The moment Lin Qingqing took off her sunglasses, Zhang Jinbiao's eyes almost fell out of their sockets. In his wildest dreams, he couldn't have imagined that Lin Qingqing would appear before him like this.

Zhang Jinbiao recognized Lin Qingqing, and so did the others. Lin Qingqing was a famous actress, and there weren't many who didn't know her.

Zhang Meijiao also recognized Lin Qingqing immediately. She even rubbed her eyes in disbelief. She clearly remembered that when Lin Qingqing got out of the car, she called Ding Fan "Brother Fan." Weren't the Ding Family already in decline? Had this prodigal son not become a homeless dog?

But why then would a big star treat Ding Fan with so much respect and even call him brother?

Another thing confused Zhang Meijiao. Why did Lin Qingqing say Zhang Jinbiao wasn't a great director, but instead a crew member?

Although crew members and directors are both part of a film crew, the status between the two is worlds apart. After getting a lot of money from the host Ding Fan, Zhang Meijiao wanted to become famous, and upon learning that Zhang Jinbiao was a great director, she had offered her body and money, hoping to land the role of the female lead.

If what Lin Qingqing said was true, and Zhang Jinbiao was just a crew member, then she had been such a fool, wasting so much effort on a mere crew member.

"Sister Lin, I'm no great director; I was just messing around, making a joke. You must be amused..." Zhang Jinbiao wiped the sweat from his forehead, his face wearing a forced smile as he spoke.

Hearing Zhang Jinbiao's words turned Zhang Meijiao's face green with rage. "What are you saying, Zhang Jinbiao? You motherfucker didn't you tell me you were a director? So you've been lying to me all along, Zhang Jinbiao! You cheated me out of my money, out of my body, you'll pay for this. I'm not through with you yet."

Zhang Meijiao violently got up from the ground and suddenly charged toward Zhang Jinbiao. Before he could react, she had already scratched his face, leaving several marks like shredded potatoes.

"Are you out of your fucking mind? Get off me!" Zhang Jinbiao hurriedly pushed Zhang Meijiao away.

"You two stop making a scene here. What exactly happened? Tell me clearly," the two officers interjected, stopping Zhang Meijiao who was attempting to continue attacking Zhang Jinbiao.

"Officer, here's what happened. That crazy woman saw Young Master Ding and went over to provoke him," Zhang Jinbiao said, pointing at Ding Fan nearby.

Zhang Jinbiao wasn't stupid, in fact, he was quite clever. He referred to Ding Fan as Young Master Ding because even Lin Qingqing addressed him as Brother Fan. He wouldn't dare to offend such a person.

Zhang Jinbiao continued, "Young Master Ding didn't want to bother with this crazy woman, but she, thinking she had some money, proposed that Young Master Ding kneel to her, offering a hundred bucks per bow. Young Master Ding didn't agree, and the crazy woman tried to hit him. But who knew Young Master Ding was nimble and dodged. That crazy woman just fell flat on her face."

Ding Fan, watching the dog-eat-dog scene unfold between Zhang Jinbiao and Zhang Meijiao, felt a twinge of disgust. But at least the situation had taken him out of the equation, which was for the best.

"Zhang Jinbiao, you... you..." Zhang Meijiao was livid with Zhang Jinbiao's words. She had given herself to this pig and, in a crucial moment, he didn't say a single word to defend her.

"And what about your leg?" the other officer inquired, looking at Zhang Jinbiao's leg which had been broken by Ding Fan.

"This leg is because I wasn't careful and broke it myself, it has nothing to do with anyone else," Zhang Jinbiao hurriedly explained.
