Turning his head to glance at the police car speeding away, Xiao Tian continued walking forward.
As soon as he entered the office area of the police station, quite a few colleagues imdiately gathered around him, showering Xiao Tian with praises and admiration.
"Xiao Tian, I heard you solved another big case last night, that’s incredible!"
"Yeah, Xiao, I also heard that Boss Chen offered you an annual salary in the millions to beco his bodyguard, is that true?"
"Doubt it? ng was right there last night, saw it with his own eyes and heard it with his own ears, no doubt about it!"
"Ah, why don’t I ever run into such good luck? Only Xiao has the guts to turn down such an offer. If it were , I wouldn’t even think twice before quitting as a cop and tell Chief Yang to shove it!"
"Please, with your chubby looks, they’d probably use you as a specin, not a bodyguard!"
"Hahaha..."
Everyone gathered around Xiao Tian, chatting and joking, the atmosphere was extrely lively.
Nowadays, Xiao Tian had subtly beco the core figure in the police station, getting along well with everyone, and his reputation even overshadowed that of Yang He, their direct superior, and was catching up to the team leader Jiang Chao.
Many colleagues were eager to seek his help when issues arose, asking for advice on criminal investigation techniques or seeking his analysis on cases.
So even consulted him on finding girlfriends or wives, hoping for his romantic expertise.
His superior criminal investigation skills, formidable combat techniques, and the charm to win over one of Shanghai City’s four great beauties...
Everything about Xiao Tian had already made a deep impression, and his unique personal charm and unparalleled talent had long conquered everyone present.
Being respected and admired by so many as a superhero figure.
While joking with his colleagues, Xiao Tian let his gaze fall on a desk in the office, and when he saw the beautiful figure sitting there working intently, his heart couldn’t help but quiver slightly.
Ever since the kidnapping case of that young girl, Xiao Tian could clearly feel that this stunning beauty’s attitude towards him had cooled quite a bit.
Thinking with his rear wouldn’t even be necessary to realize this surely had sothing to do with Lin Bingxuan’s presence.
Pushing through the crowd, Xiao Tian headed straight for Yu Ningxue.
"Beautiful Master, what are you busy with?" Xiao Tian sidled up close to Yu Ningxue with a cheeky grin.
"Get lost, I don’t have ti for you." Yu Ningxue frowned her delicate eyebrows, focusing on her work, not even bothering to lift her head.
"Pfft——"
Seeing Xiao Tian’s feigned serious deanor, Yu Ningxue felt both irritated and amused, shoving him playfully as she laughed and said,
"Stop spouting nonsense here, why would I be jealous of you? Move along, can’t you see your Master is busy?"
"Wow, Master’s smile is truly breathtaking, like an iceberg lotus in the fiery sumr, an unrivaled fla in the snow and ice, it lts my heart!" Xiao Tian exclaid exaggeratedly.
"Smooth talker, you might as well beco a poet, why stay a cop?" Yu Ningxue stifled a laugh, a faint blush appearing on her pretty face.
Though she knew Xiao Tian was just trying to cheer her up with his deliberate exaggerations, every woman loves to hear praise.
Especially since the complint was quite novel to her ears, her mood indeed improved quite a lot.
The office colleagues watching this unfold all gave Xiao Tian a thumbs-up, unanimously sighing in their hearts:
"Truly impressive, makes a gorgeous beauty smile with just a few words. Damn it, why can’t I have such talent as well?"
A sense of accomplishnt surged in Xiao Tian’s heart, seizing the opportunity: "Beautiful Master, I found a new sushi place on West Street, the stuff there is fresh and delicious. Would you honor with your company for lunch?"
Hearing about good food, the foodie Yu Ningxue’s eyes indeed lit up with a gleam, just about to nod in agreent.
But just then, Xiao Tian’s phone rang.
"Hello, Yaoyao, what’s up?"
"Uncle-in-law, stop pretending. Did you forget what you agreed to do for last night? Or are you trying to back out?" Le Yaoyao’s dissatisfied voice sounded from the other end.
"Oh, you’re talking about that... how about we do it another day? Sothing urgent ca up at the police station today, I can’t get away," Xiao Tian paused, only just rembering he indeed promised Le Yaoyao last night to help deal with a new Korean guy at her school.
"Hmph, breaking a promise? No way! I demand you show up at our school within 20 minutes, or else, hmm hmm... experience my ’Mount Tai Crush’ tonight!" Le Yaoyao said angrily before hanging up with a "snap."
Mount... Mount Tai Crush?
Xiao Tian shivered instantly upon hearing this, the experience from last night was like a nightmare, and he still felt so lingering fear even now.
That feeling... how to put it crudely, it’s like being in a park, suddenly wanting to pee, but next to you is a sign that says: No urination, violators will be castrated.
But now...
On one side was his beautiful martial arts master, and on the other, his future niece. The choice left Xiao Tian troubled, stuck in a dilemma.
Yu Ningxue looked up at Xiao Tian for a few seconds, instantly spotting his discomfort. With an expressionless face and slightly parted red lips, she said, "If you have things to do, go ahead. Don’t worry about ."
"M... Master, I’m really sorry. Next ti, next ti I’ll definitely treat you to a delicious al! Rember Moyun Manor? Next ti, let’s go to the Imperial Palace!" After saying that, Xiao Tian awkwardly scratched his head, looking like a child who did sothing wrong, full of apologies.
"Alright, alright, just go," Yu Ningxue waved her jade hand, burying her head back in the files.
After Xiao Tian left, she finally lifted her head, eyes filled with amusent, thinking to herself, although this guy is usually so carefree and shaless, seeing him embarrassed like this is quite cute!
...
minutes later.
"Haha, uncle, you’re punctual. I knew you wouldn’t miss it." Le Yaoyao, standing at the school gate, hopped over as soon as she spotted Xiao Tian, linking her arm with his.
Maybe because of martial arts class, today she wore a beige striped T-shirt and light blue capri leggings, perfectly outlining her figure.
Le Yaoyao rarely wore a ponytail, her fair face sporting an innocent and radiant smile, overflowing with youthful energy.
It’s hard to imagine how two contrasting qualities—seductive allure and pure romance—could coexist in one person.
Seeing Le Yaoyao’s outfit, Xiao Tian couldn’t help but swallow secretly, cursing in his heart, "Little seductress."
With arms linked like a couple in love, they walked through the university campus, drawing nurous glances from passersby.
"Damn, another fine cabbage was taken by a pig!"
"Damn, who is this tall, skinny guy with a sharp chin and monkey-like face? How can soone like that find such an amazing girlfriend? Is there any justice left?"
"Ugh, what are girls thinking these days? I really don’t understand society anymore!"
"..."
Along the way, most comnts praised Le Yaoyao’s beauty, while sarcastically mocking Xiao Tian, making his face as dark as charcoal.
Yet beside him, Le Yaoyao covered her mouth, giggling non-stop.
**
Ten minutes later.
The two finally arrived at the Martial Arts Club.
Upon entering, they saw a crowd surrounding a young man, treating him like a star among them.
The club president was a tall, robust, dark-skinned guy nad Yang Yong.
Seeing Le Yaoyao co in, Yang Yong quickly ca forward to greet her warmly, "Yaoyao, you’re here! Let introduce you to a top master."
Without waiting for Le Yaoyao’s consent, he pulled her over to the young man, introducing them:
"Yaoyao, this is Lin Haofei, the lead disciple of Celestial Beauty Martial Arts Hall. His martial arts skills are incredible; I can’t even last three moves against him."
"Brother Haofei, this is the beauty I’ve been telling you about from our club, Le Yaoyao. What do you think? Not bad, right?"
The young man nad Lin Haofei, upon seeing such an eye-catching beauty, imdiately lit up, eyeing her up and down.
Monts later, his gaze fixated on Le Yaoyao’s chest, his Adam’s apple moving involuntarily as he extended his hand, "Hello beauty, would you do the honor of joining for a al later?"
"What do you an by that?" Le Yaoyao did not extend her hand to shake his but frowned, looking at Yang Yong.
Le Yaoyao wasn’t a fool; on the contrary, she was very smart.
She imdiately saw through their ill-intentions, sure they were up to sothing untoward.
Yang Chao awkwardly rubbed his nose, stuttering, "N...no other aning, Yaoyao, don’t misunderstand. I just agreed to Brother Haofei that if he helps us teach a lesson to the Taekwondo club, you’ll have a al with him, that’s all."
Slam!
A loud slap echoed, stunning everyone present.
Even Xiao Tian, who lazily stood at the doorway with his hands in his pockets, watching the drama unfold, couldn’t help but be slightly surprised, not expecting this girl to have such a fierce side.
"Le Yaoyao, what...what are you doing?" Yang Yong, rubbing his face, said angrily and embarrassed.
"What am I doing? Yang Yong, don’t think I don’t know what you’re planning!"
"Let tell you straight, those filthy thoughts of yours, I understood them clearly when I was three years old!"
"What do you an by agreeing on my behalf? What right do you have to decide for ?"
