"I just gave you a huge help," Yu Xiaonan spoke with feigned innocence. Seeing that Xia You did not show the slightest bit of tearful gratitude, he casually tossed her so money.
"If you’re going to help, you might as well do it thoroughly," Xia You said. The courtyard was only lit by a dim wall lamp, making her face seem as if veiled by a thin gauze, quite surreal. But Yu Xiaonan dared not truly lift that veil, as it seed uncovering Xia You’s current expression might bring about so misfortune.
"Helping others is the source of many worries. I better eat sothing, drink sothing, and have a good rest at ho," Yu Xiaonan was already enticed by the aromatic scent of the Italian bacon pasta coming from inside, saliva almost drooling from his mouth, an impatient look on his face.
"Fine, we’ll et again at Rand tomorrow, my first day at work. I should get to know more colleagues and move around different departnts," Xia You didn’t have a habit of forcing people, but after coming out from Military Road, she felt it was necessary to cultivate the habit of threatening people.
Instantly, Yu Xiaonan’s sense of taste and sll went numb; hunger and greed fled. No problem was more pressing than saving face.
Within two hours of coming from Military Road, from the pretty secretary at the top to the floor-sweeping cleaners at the bottom of the Ard Departnt, everyone already knew Yu Xiaonan, Sergeant Yu, was invincible and heroically vanquished a tribe of primitive n and srized a bunch of won from a primitive society during the challenging Military Road experience. This version would spread widely in the various departnts of the Rand Military District for so ti, and if at this mont an extrely discordant voice appeared, then the consequences...
Xia Yun brought out the officer’s requested pasta and soda, observing the two who were conversing in the courtyard. Was that officer with Xiao You? In the blink of an eye, Xia Yun saw Yu Xiaonan laughing loudly, constantly slapping Xia You’s shoulder. Their actions seed very intimate but didn’t look like a typical couple; they appeared more like buddies.
"Xiao You, no no no, Ling. Just tell if you need anything, we’re partners who have been through life and death and have a solid friendship," Yu Xiaonan’s smile was so dazzling it outshone the stars in the sky. After the two re-entered the small restaurant, Xia Yun still looked over, puzzled.
"Mom, I’ll escort him out," Xia You apologetically nodded at Xia Yun.
"Don’t waste it, pack it up." Yu Xiaonan reminded her, and Xia Yun courteously wrapped up the bread. As for the soda, Yu Xiaonan gulped it down in one go. "Hey, you don’t look anything like your mom."
Hearing this, Xia Yun accidentally spilled so sauce from the pasta.
"Mom, don’t listen to his nonsense," Xia You hugged her mother and apologized. She had just returned ho and yet had to go out again; it was indeed hard to justify.
After receiving a warning look from Xia You, Yu Xiaonan sheepishly walked out, "You must not be her real child, your Aunt looks both gentle and beautiful, you must share a mom with my boss. The sharpness of your glare is nearly the sa."
Ignoring Yu Xiaonan’s nonsense, Xia You squeezed back into the crowd. The police, who were known for bullying the weak and fearing the strong, would surely, after Yu Xiaonan’s hint, make a symbolic effort to clean up. If all went as expected, she would find them without much effort.
After turning several street corners, she could hear the shouts of a group of small-ti hooligans from afar. Cai Ming, who had previously intimidated and cursed Xia’s Family mber, had already been surrounded.
"Wow, the police are being bullied by thieves. You should remind your Aunt that this neighborhood really isn’t safe. Find an opportunity to move; it would be wise," Yu Xiaonan glanced around, just as he spotted his Infiniti hybrid car, ducked down, and slipped into it.
Xia You looked at the crowd, clenched her teeth, and also sat down in the car with Yu Xiaonan.
"The craftsmanship is not bad," Yu Xiaonan slurped a mouthful of noodles, and then tossed a piece of bacon into his mouth, fatty and tender, refreshing and smooth—it seed that this restaurant was worth revisiting.
No sooner had his voice fallen than cries of pain ca from the opposite side, where several of Cai Hai’s henchn had been punched a few tis, wailing on the ground.
"That leader has so good moves, a match for ," Yu Xiaonan rummaged in the car, pulling out a pack of fragrant tissues. Xia You turned her head away, no longer looking outside the car, but began to examine the car’s interior.
A regular Sergeant, able to afford such an imported luxury car? The way Yu Xiaonan had casually thrown twenty-two thousand in cash at her before, he didn’t seem to wince at all.
"It’s ti to use real guns," Yu Xiaonan pressed Xia You down by hand, and both of them crouched in the car.
Cai Hai, a first-class officer, also fought his way up. Seeing his n getting defeated, he verbally begged for rcy, but in his heart, there was no ambiguity. As he crouched down, he drew the pistol from his waist and shot the hooligan who was closest to him.
When the leading man saw the gun, there was no retreat in him; he dragged a fallen cop in front of him for cover, and a blue glow emanated from his knuckles. He was wearing a tiger’s head ring.
The nearby lackeys imdiately scattered. A shower of sparks as bullets hit the wall. The cop used as a shield let out screams of agony.
Cai Hai took cover behind a car, fumbled for his phone, and quickly dialed for help.
"Damn it, what sort of bad luck is this? Just stepping out and running into this disaster," as his fingers were about to press the last key.
A beam of high beam light shone over, and a white sedan that was parked opposite suddenly lit up.
The strong light hit his eyes, and Cai Hai quickly covered them, his gun snatched away in an instant. A sensation of pain from his face, then his body, and between his legs, as fists rained down like raindrops.
The gurgling of blood, like the sound of spring rain dripping on glass rooftops, Cai Hai quickly fell silent. "Tsk tsk, this move to kill soone with a borrowed knife is quite good," looking at the hand that was pressed on the high beam light, Yu Xiaonan smirked. He knew what Xia You’s intentions were in having him co out tonight, but he didn’t expect to have Cai Hai end up in such a sorry state.
Judging from the situation outside, he would probably end up dead or crippled.
"If you don’t remove the roots, the spring breeze will bring them back to life," Xia You casually replied, and besides, she hadn’t done anything but press the car light, "We should leave now."
The car lights were still on. Yu Xiaonan had just started the car. In front of the vehicle, about a dozen figures had already appeared. The hooligan leader, his tiger’s head ring still dripping with blood, blocked the path of the white sedan. His entire silhouette was now exposed in front of Xia You and Yu Xiaonan.
