Chapter 152: Such a strong woman, and I actually have two!

~7 min read 1,248 words

Inside the factory.

The suspect's furious howl reverberated.

Maozi, who had rushed back, couldn't help but stop in his tracks.

"Did we celebrate New Year early?"

"What's with the noise like a pig being slaughtered?"

Liu Yanxi's brows were tightly furrowed.

She urged the colleagues behind her: "Move faster!"

"Yes, Liu Team!"

A group of people rushed back to the factory.

The fleeing suspect was also apprehended and brought back.

Liu Yanxi smelled the bloody scent at the scene, involuntarily drew a breath of cold air, and walked tensely toward the iron door.

Just then, Li Jiaci wiped the blood from his hands and walked out with a calm expression.

The two collided head-on.

Liu Yanxi saw his injured hand, and her tightly furrowed brows relaxed a little.

After that, Maozi brought the suspect before Liu Yanxi.

"Sis, are you all right?"

Liu Yanxi said sternly: "What do you call me?"

Maozi stared, then hurriedly corrected: "Liu Team, are you all right?"

"All good!"

"This gentleman just saved my life!"

"I guessed as much!"

Liu Yanxi has been a police officer for many years.

The cases she's handled, the scenes she's been to—too many to count.

Seeing Li Jiaci's hand injury, she understood everything.

"First, take the suspect to the car!"

"Got it!"

Maozi nodded.

Before leaving, he told Li Jiaci: "Remember to come to the bureau to find me, and I'll help you get reimbursed for medical expenses!"

"Hehe!"

Li Jiaci laughed openly.

Liu Yanxi turned and waved at her colleagues.

She had them arrest the two suspects lying under the iron door.

One of the suspects, while being dragged, dazedly opened his eyes.

"Cao..."

"A bunch of useless good-for-nothings!"

Li Jiaci's ears twitched.

He suddenly turned his head to look at that suspect.

Just now, when the incident happened suddenly, he didn't have time to carefully observe the other's appearance before directly knocking them down.

Now, calming down, he actually felt the other's face was very familiar.

But he couldn't recall where he had seen them for a moment.

Wang Yingna's appearance interrupted his train of thought.

"Jiaci bro, let's first go to the hospital to bandage the wound?"

Hearing that, Li Jiaci shook his head: "It's just a minor injury; it'll be fine after a few days of rest!"

Liu Yanxi watched as her colleagues brought the suspect into the car.

Then she said to Li Jiaci: "Thank you very much for your help today!"

"Hmm."

Li Jiaci's response was indifferent.

Liu Yanxi pressed her lips, thought it over several times, then said: "Let's have a meal together after we finish up!"

"We don't seem close enough to share a table!"

"Although that's the case, you helped me a great deal today, so I ought to treat you to a meal!"

"Really, no need to be so polite!"

"This isn't politeness; it's a formal invitation from me as the police team captain!"

"Yo, got promoted?"

"Li Jiaci, see you at Spring Happiness Restaurant at six tonight!"

"I haven't agreed to you!"

"No problem, I'll wait until you show up!"

"……"

Just as Li Jiaci was speechless.

Liu Yanxi stepped forward, grabbed his injured hand, and examined it closely.

I suggest you still go to the hospital to get it treated; don't neglect your health!

Hearing this, Li Jiaci gave a knowing smile: "Got it!"

And Wang Yingna walked straight up and slapped Liu Yanxi's hand away with a 'pa' sound.

I'll take good care of Jiaci brother, no need for you to worry!

Liu Yanxi wasn't angry, she said lightly: "Come along tonight as well!"

We don't need your food.

Right, Jiaci brother?

Wang Yingna could see that Li Jiaci wasn't very keen on the appointment.

But unexpectedly, after just a few sentences, this guy's attitude changed.

Someone's treating you to a meal, why not go?

Wang Yingna put on a stern face, her tone displeased: "Aren't you not familiar with her?"

It has nothing to do with familiarity; I'm just hungry!

Is the factory missing your bit of food?

It's different; she's ordering dishes from Spring Happiness Restaurant!

I can treat you too!

Is it more prestigious for me to have you buy me a meal, or for the police squad captain to buy me a meal?

……

This time it was Wang Yingna who was left speechless.

She felt, for the first time, a sense of defeat at being outdone by a woman.

The proud head that had been held high all her life finally drooped.

Li Jiaci added: "Alright, I never said I wouldn't bring you, what are you pretending for!"

I'm ignoring you!

Wang Yingna shoved him.

She stormed off toward the gate.

Liu Yanxi pointed at her retreating back and asked awkwardly: "Is that... your little girlfriend?"

No.

Oh, then that's good.

Li Jiaci turned and shut the iron door.

He waved at Liu Yanxi.

The two walked out of the factory one after another.

Liu Yanxi got into the police car, while Li Jiaci returned to his own vehicle.

Wang Yingna stared stubbornly out the window, fuming and grumbling.

Men are all the same!

Fall in love with every one you meet!

I thought you were different from them!

Now I see, I was blind!

Li Jiaci let her complain.

Is it still not easy to deal with this guy?

All it takes is for him to use a little trick, and this guy will instantly become obedient.

Li Jiaci's mouth curled up slightly.

He placed his injured hand on the steering wheel.

He then sucked in a breath of cold air.

Jiaci brother!

Your hand is still dripping blood!

Let me see it quick!

Paper, paper, where's there any paper in the car?

No, I'll blow on it for you!

Whoosh...

Li Jiaci watched Wang Yingna fumble about, cupping his injured hand and blowing on it, smiling with utter satisfaction.

Totally nailed it!

Wang Yingna met his teasing gaze and realized she'd been played.

You lied to me?

Saying that, she flung his hand away.

Bang.

This time she really banged the steering wheel.

Hiss...

Li Jiaci sucked in cold air, and beads of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Seeing that, Wang Yingna snorted and said: "You still want to fool me? Let me tell you, I'm not some gullible girl; this trick of yours won't work anymore!"

Cut it out, I'm really in pain!

How bad is it?

I'll slash you with a knife to test it!

「You dare! 」

Wang Yingna rolled her eyes.

But half a minute passed.

Li Jiaci was still bent over, not sitting up.

She pursed her lips and poked Li Jiaci's shoulder with her hand.

"Hey, stop pretending, it's boring!"

At that moment.

Bean-sized beads of sweat slid down Li Jiaci's face.

Wang Yingna's face changed instantly.

She panicked completely.

"Brother Jiaci, don't scare me!"

"Let me see quickly!"

Wang Yingna pulled out his hand.

Only to see fresh blood already smeared across the entire palm.

"To the hospital!"

"Let's go now!"

"I'll drive!"

Wang Yingna hurriedly went to open the car door.

But Li Jiaci stopped her.

"Sit still, don't move!"

"I'll drive!"

Li Jiaci would not dare to entrust his life to this flustered woman.

He operated the steering wheel with one hand, backing the car out of the woods.

Wang Yingna's eyes were moist, she wiped the blood from his palm with great distress.

"Brother Jiaci..."

Li Jiaci glanced at him: "Damn it, I'm not dead yet!"
