Ling Qingyu patted her chest in remorse and bent over, leaning sideways on the couch. Tang Ziyi and Xiao Yue were alarmed by the movement and the car quickly came to a stop.
"What happened to you?" Tang Ziyi asked worried.
"Sister Ling?" Xiao Yue reached out her hand from the passenger seat and nudged Ling Qingyu with her fingers.
Being poked several times, Ling Qingyu looked up and saw Tang Ziyi had stopped driving.
"It's okay. I thought of doing something and losing as a result. It's just expressing regret." Ling Qingyu fixed her hair as she replied.
"What makes you regret by this appearance?" Tang Ziyi asked suspiciously, looking over from the rearview mirror.
"It's better if you don't know. Go on, keep driving, I don't want to be late for work." Ling Qingyu urged Tang Ziyi.
The two from the front seats stared at Ling Qingyu as if watching a neuropath and Tang Ziyi resumed driving.
Ling Qingyu's heartache wasn't overexaggerated. Among the rewards stated by her system, the last three were shares of the airline, the private island, and the 707th Special Force.
No need to explain the origin of the special force unit. 707th, a renowned tier-one unit of South Korea, was much needed in Province N in Ling Qingyu's future plan.
Ling Qingyu was fine with losing shares of the airline since money could make up any later, but it required a strong connection and influence in order for one to be able to join in the shares.
The worst feeling came from losing the private island where Ling Qingyu could make her own base.
Ling Qingyu nearly cried with tears, hearing she lost this opportunity. The only comfort came from what she did was correct and righteous.
Caring for her mother was never a wrong option. Given the opportunity to choose again, there wouldn't be any change.
The hesitation should only cover for a portion of a second and disappear. No gift was greater than her mother's recovery.
Then, she remembered—her system couldn't supply her too obviously since the world's will threatened to blow itself.
Ling Qingyu suspected her system said these rewards out on purpose because if she didn't know the result, she wouldn't feel regret from the start.
Miss System was so bad, wanting to see Ling Qingyu in an embarrassing moment. If Miss System never mentioned the gifts, there would be no huge lump inside her throat.
'Miss System is a bad girl. You know how to tease the emotion of this pretty young woman.'
[...]
'You know the world's will is against us. How will you give me gifts?'
[Even if the world's will noticed, it dared not blow up. There's a limit of what we can play here.]
Yang Qingyue, in a blue and black police uniform with a hat, and Cai Ning, still wearing a trench coat, T-shirt, and a short skirt, walked past them and the others followed suit.
Since the superior had given orders to follow their lead, the rest of the team went along with Yang Qingyue's lead.
Two columns behind marched ahead aggressively, moving oncoming people aside with their momentum.
The other member of the police officers inside the station murmured and exchanged glances.
They knew who Yang Qingyue was and her behavior. Seeing her menacing step, no one dared to question or stop the group.
Rumors sprouted behind as they came up with various reasons why Yang Qingyue acted this way.
Luckily, she went far away when the whispers began. Else, she might have vomited out of depression with the wild speculations from behind.
The statement grew worse and worse that others couldn't bear to listen anymore and interrupted.
The rest also trailed behind to watch the commotions. Except for those taking over important posts, they were preparing to gossip.
Yang Qingyue stopped and conveyed her orders: "Separate the group. One will follow me upstairs through the elevator. The other will climb up the stairs. You, four will remain here guarding and scanning to prevent any of our subjects from leaving the vicinity. When you meet any of them, you're authorized to take them down and arrest them if they resist.
Don't worry about other implications, they're the criminals now. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Ma'am!" A resonated response but her members' eyes widened at the shock, Yang Qingyu gave them. She prepared an injection before making a real arrest.
Otherwise, who knew they would become dumbfounded during the process, and Yang Qingyu had to go through another trouble.
"Good. This is the warrant for them." Yang Qingyue waved the paper in her hand and retrieved it back. She nodded and gestured to Cai Ning with her head to move on, entering the elevator
The rest of her team looked at each other dubiously but stuck to her orders. All of them had one thing in their mind.
Their leader Yang was arresting all the high-ranking officers at the station. Why did this nearly imply a coup?
Or had they been mistaken? Their thoughts wavered and regained confidence in Yang Qingyue after a while.
After working with one another for a period of time, didn't they understand Yang Qingyue's behavior?
She punished evil and pursued an extremely high level of justice. This time might be an opportunity to topple the regime above who were damaging the police reputation for those who dreamt for so long since day one.
So, what if Yang Qingyue led the coup. They would willingly follow for the peace and security of Province N.
Noting their reaction, Yang Qingyue sighed in relief and felt delighted having them as subordinates.
Her gentle eyes changed when they arrived at a designated floor and the doors slid open. The corner of her lips curled as she gazed ahead and paced forward without hesitation.
