Chapter 48: Fake Play, Real Deal?

~7 min read 1,335 words

Zhang Bing felt his three views were on the verge of collapsing.

He's lived this long, seen plenty of fighters, but never anything this outrageous; this strength isn't something a normal person should have!

Jiang Feng patted the dust off his hand, too lazy to waste words with him.

"Enough idle talk, drop the gun…"

"You want me to surrender? Dream on."

Zhang Bing gritted his teeth, picked up the other gun on the co‑pilot's seat, and aimed to fire at Jiang Feng.

But just as he raised the gun, a bang rang out, and Zhang Bing's wrist was instantly seized by sharp pain; he couldn't help a howl, and the gun in his hand fell to the ground.

It was Shen Junyao!

She had just taken advantage of Zhang Bing's distraction, picked up the gun Li Tie had dropped on the ground, and precisely struck Zhang Bing's wrist.

"You…"

Zhang Bing clutched his bleeding wrist, grimacing in pain, looked at Shen Junyao and Jiang Feng, and was utterly desperate.

Perhaps heaven intends their demise?

Just tying up two hostages on the road, and they both turned out to be perverts!

At that moment, a police siren sounded in the distance, and within moments a dozen‑plus police cars surrounded the area.

The police raised their guns and shouted, "Don't move! Put down your weapons!"

Leading them was a tall officer, none other than Deputy Captain Lv Fei of the Serious Crime Unit.

He saw the situation, rushed over, and, upon seeing the scene, said in surprise to Shen Junyao.

"Captain! You did it! You ripped the car door off? And these two bandits, you handled them too?"

The surrounding officers also nodded, their eyes full of admiration.

They all knew how fierce this group was, armed and daring to resist arrest, and didn't expect Team Leader Shen to resolve it so quickly.

Shen Junyao pointed at Jiang Feng beside her and said helplessly.

"Stop praising me; I didn't do it, he did. He ripped the car door, he subdued Li Tie and Xiao Zhifei, I only fired a shot at Zhang Bing's wrist."

"Huh?"

Lv Fei was stunned, turned to look at Jiang Feng, sized him up from head to toe, and seeing his plain clothes and unremarkable appearance, couldn't imagine him being able to pull a car door with his bare hands.

"Brother, you… your strength is just absurd! Have you trained in weightlifting?"

Only a rookie officer standing in the corner saw Jiang Feng, seemed to recall something, and whispered a few words into Lv Fei's ear.

Lv Fei's expression grew increasingly shocked.

In the end, he even felt a bit of admiration.

No wonder he's a ruthless guy! Turns out he's the captain's boyfriend!

Jiang Feng simply waved his hand indifferently.

"It's nothing, just a bit of extra strength. Quickly escort them away; I still have to go back for a meal."

Only then did Lv Fei react, quickly commanding the police, "Put the three of them into the police car and take them back to the bureau for interrogation!"

After speaking, he leaned over to Shen Junyao, winking and saying.

"Captain, you should've said he was your brother‑in‑law earlier… No wonder he's so impressive."

Shen Junyao's face flushed red, irritated, "What brother‑in‑law? That was just a disguise to avoid being recognized by them earlier!"

"Forget it."

Lv Fei kept shaking his head; Xiao Pan had already said, "The last time I saw you two in the Interrogation Room, the passion flared up."

But he only saw through the captain; after all, Mother T‑Rex's reputation isn't unfounded, so he pretended to believe it, teasing,

"But captain, I was watching from the back just now—you and this brother were acting like a couple, hiding behind him, leaning on his shoulder. How about turning the fake play into reality?"

"What are you talking about!"

Shen Junyao's face instantly reddened, and she raised her hand to give Lv Fei an Exploding Chestnut.

"Stop spouting nonsense! We're just cooperating temporarily!"

"I wasn't talking nonsense!"

Lv Fei rubbed his brain, grinned, "Think about it, this brother is so formidable; if he became our brother‑in‑law, the Serious Crime Unit would never fear any tough criminal again!"

Shen Junyao's face turned even redder, stole a glance at Jiang Feng, and quickly changed the subject.

"Don't be cheap! Quickly handle the scene, I'll escort this brother back!"

After that, she walked to Jiang Feng's side, her tone a bit softer.

"Thanks for today, I'll take you back; I can tell you something on the way."

Jiang Feng thought for a moment; since he had no car, he nodded, "Alright, then it's on you."

The two got into Shen Junyao's white sedan, while Lv Fei shouted from behind, "Captain, remember to treat the brother‑in‑law to a meal!"

Shen Junyao was so angry she almost stopped the car to go back and beat him, but she held back, started the car and drove toward the city.

……

The atmosphere in the car was a bit awkward; Shen Junyao gripped the steering wheel, was silent for a while, then suddenly spoke.

"Um… about the last time in the Interrogation Room, it was my fault; I shouldn't have taken you as a suspect without checking, and I treated you poorly. I'm sorry."

Jiang Feng was taken aback, didn't expect her to apologize, and waved his hand.

"It's fine, it's all over, I didn't hold it against you."

"Earlier Ye Xiaoyue spread rumors about you, and I believed them; later I investigated and found she deliberately framed you. I won't trust her words again."

Jiang Feng raised an eyebrow, said nothing.

He wasn't interested in Ye Xiaoyue's little scheming; as long as she stopped bothering him, that was enough.

Shen Junyao saw his lack of response and added, "Actually… I think you're a good person; though sometimes a bit off, you're reliable in crucial moments. I hope we can become friends, and if you ever need help, you can call me."

Jiang Feng shook his head.

"Let's just forget it."

"Why?"

Shen Junyao was stunned, feeling a bit aggrieved, "I've already apologized and know I was wrong. Don't you want to be friends with me?"

"It's not that I don't want to, I just think it's unnecessary."

Jiang Feng leaned against the chair back, his tone flat.

"Each Time I run into you, nothing good happens."

"Last Time you made me a suspect, this Time I was tied up at a barbecue and almost shot. I'm afraid being friends with you would bring even more trouble."

"You!"

Shen Junyao glared, eyes wide with anger, reaching out to strike him.

I'm the proud Heavy Crime Unit Flower! Being friends with you is just giving you face!

But realizing she wasn't his match, she forced her hand back, muttering angrily.

"How can you be like this! I kindly tried to be friends with you, and you still find me troublesome!"

Jiang Feng smiled, "I'm just speaking plainly. Still, I have to thank you for the ride today."

Shen Junyao bit her lip, said nothing, and kept driving forward.

The two of them continued like that, driving all the way to Su Family Gate without speaking.

When they reached Su Family Gate, Shen Junyao steadied the car.

Just as Jiang Feng was about to get out, Shen Junyao suddenly said, "By the way, my uncle's family has been having a hard time lately, you know?"

"Ye Zhonghai? What happened to them?"

Even though she's at odds with Ye Xiaoyue, Ye Zhonghai is still an old friend of the master, so Jiang Feng is quite concerned.

"Because of Zhao Qiancheng's matter, the Ye Family is now being targeted by the Zhao Family in various ways; several projects have gone sour…"

Shen Junyao also knows that Zhao Qiancheng was eliminated by Jiang Feng, so she couldn't help but say.

Hearing this, Jiang Feng was silent for a moment, then said, "Hmm, I understand. I'll go check on the Ye Family."
