Chapter 21 Arrogant Aid
"Fine, since you two are dating, then get along well and be careful. And you, kid, protect Yiran, or I won't let you off the hook," Li Yiting warned Xu Nuo sternly.
"Uh, okay, okay."
"Hey kid, ever thought about joining our Lion Dance? Being in an organized shelter is relatively safer."
"Maybe I should just forget it? I'm afraid we'll all be wiped out."
"Think it over carefully. Contact me again if you change your mind. I'm heading back now. Take good care of Yiran."
"Okay, sure."
After Li Yiting left, Xu Nuo finally breathed a sigh of relief, though she had been terrified.
"How about it? Isn't my sister pretty?"
"She's beautiful, but she's too intimidating."
"Oh? You mean the feeling of pressure? Mine isn't bad either."
"You... this, I'm not talking about that, but you definitely don't have hers..."
"Ugh!" Li Yiran pouted, pretending to be angry. "My sister told me you have another girlfriend?"
"She's just my colleague?"
"What female colleague would ask you out to dinner? Could it be that she has a crush on you?"
"She was just apologizing to me."
"I don't believe you! You promised my sister you'd take care of me, and you're not allowed to like anyone else!"
"Big sister, everyone's gone, so stop acting." Xu Nuo felt a headache coming on. These two sisters were both very difficult to deal with, and they were too immersed in their roles.
"So, do you like her?" Li Yiran asked.
"dislike."
"But I think she might be a little interested in you."
Why?
"Think about it? Even if a girl apologizes, she wouldn't necessarily invite you out to dinner. She would only spend that much time on someone she likes." Li Yiran analyzed Xu Nuo's situation from her own perspective.
"That shouldn't be the case. I've only known her for a short time. We've only participated in missions together at most."
"Look, we've only known each other for a short time, we even fought, but in the end we still ended up together... roommates." Li Yiran suddenly realized something was wrong. Why was she being used as an example? Her voice gradually softened.
"Li Yiran!" Xu Nuo called out to her.
"Huh? Ah?" Li Yiran was also startled, and only then did she come to her senses.
"Hey girl, something's not right with you either? You're not actually interested in me, are you?" Xu Nuo asked tentatively.
"Hmph! How dare you talk to me like that? My sister told you to take good care of me, and this is how you treat me?" Li Yiran said righteously.
"So he's just acting?" Xu Nuo was speechless.
"Hmph! When am I acting? If I were acting, my sister would have eaten you up long ago. I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going to sleep!" Li Yiran left angrily and slammed the door shut behind her.
"What's going on? Do you really like me? I'm just a poor loser!"
To be fair, Xu Nuo is indeed handsome. If there's a flaw, it's that he's a bit poor, but Li Yiran is certainly not short of money.
Today was another thrilling day. I hope there are no monsters in my dreams.
The next morning, Xu Nuo opened her eyes in a daze. Sigh, another day of working. Working people are driven by their work spirit. Working people are all superior people.
On this day, the bureau launched another crackdown operation, which was similar to the previous one, but only minor figures were caught.
However, the expert that Gao Shen had invited also arrived that evening.
But what was unexpected was that these helpers were the newly established adjudication bureau of Nan'an City.
This group of people is a bit arrogant.
Inside the meeting room, the two team leaders sat at the head of the table at both ends, with their respective members seated on either side. The other side had sent five people.
"Let me introduce myself. I am Jiang Yan, the deputy director of the Nan'an City Adjudication Bureau. Although we are here to cooperate with your Huaishui City branch, I hope you can follow my instructions so that we can be more efficient."
The young man who spoke, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, looked rather handsome and charming, but what he said was extremely vulgar.
"Pfft! Cooperate with you? This is our territory, are you familiar with it? Where did this brat come from, you've got some nerve!" The monkey had been annoyed with this guy for a long time and couldn't hold back any longer, so he started spitting out his insults.
Both sides stood up instantly, and it looked like a fight was about to break out.
"Watch your mouth, you son of a bitch! I'm going to beat you up!" One of the fat men on the other side brandished his fist, ready to fight. According to the information, his name was Hu Jun.
"Come on, my lord, let me loosen your skin!" the monkey insisted.
Come on!
Come on!
Jiang Yan adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, waved his hand, and gestured for him to sit down.
"Sit down, everyone. They've come all this way to help! Can't we discuss things?" It's okay if his subordinates are ignorant, but Gao Shen, as the bureau chief, can't just sit idly by.
Everyone then sat down, but they were all clearly still angry.
"I don't think there's any need for discussion. Our overall strength is relatively high, with two gene suitors assessed as S-level. If we follow your arrangements, it might affect our efficiency."
Jiang Yan directly stated his thoughts, clearly unwilling to waste words with the people from the Huaishui City Adjudication Bureau.
"Tch~, you must have some misunderstanding about our branch. Do you know why we have so few people in our branch? And a deputy captain? It's because all my assessments are above B level, and we even have S level ones." Hou Hao said disdainfully.
"Comrade, we're happy you're here to help, but we're all working for the organization, there's no need to be so arrogant."
Ni Shihua had long disliked this man with gold-rimmed glasses; he was too pretentious, with an arrogant voice, trying to impress whoever he was trying to be cool with.
"We have two S-class officers who are more capable than you. The weak must submit to the strong!"
The speaker this time was a girl with short, neat hair who looked very capable. According to the information, her name is Yang Jin.
It looked like the two sides were about to start arguing again.
"Alright, everyone, quiet down!" Gao Shen picked up the teacup in front of him and drank it all in one gulp, as if he had made up his mind. "Let's leave it at that. We'll cooperate with Captain Jiang, and we hope that Captain Jiang can live up to his claims of competence and not contradict himself."
"No need for Captain Gao to trouble yourself! Alright, we need to rest today, we'll make plans tomorrow. Let's head to the hotel now." Jiang Yan slowly got up, adjusted his glasses, and left the meeting room.
As he left, the fat man, Hu Jun, kicked the bench, seemingly throwing a tantrum on purpose.
"Your mother!" the monkey said, trying to rush forward again, but Xu Nuo stopped him.
"Calm down, after all, they're here to help!" Xu Nuo reassured her.
Hu Jun turned around, gave the middle finger, smiled sarcastically, and then left.
"Damn it, that fat bastard is really despicable! Ugh!" Hou Hao was furious today, but he had to ask for a favor and couldn't do anything about it.
