Ye Mubei was roused from sleep by a commotion outside the door.
He rubbed his tired eyes and came to the door in a haze, "Mom, what's happening?"
Outside, a large crowd had already gathered. Xu Songzhi's face turned as ugly as it could get when she saw him, and she frantically pushed him back into the house, "What are you doing out here, get back inside!"
Before Ye Mubei could react, a policeman stepped forward and asked him in a forceful tone, "Are you Ye Mubei?"
Xu Songzhi shivered and desperately tried to signal him with her eyes.
Ye Mubei, too groggy to open his eyes properly, didn't catch her hints and casually replied, "Yes, that's me."
Xu Songzhi's brows twisted in a pained expression that looked like she was about to cry.
The policeman showed him his badge, "Someone has reported that you are running a beauty salon without a business license."
Ye Mubei was completely confused, scratching his head in bewilderment, "What beauty salon?"
