Chapter 325 Offend him or her?

Captain Ming and Lieutenant Tong were informed when the detainee suddenly turned violent. After the detainee was captured in solitary, they were returned to the headquarters. They had not expected to come across the scene of NL lawyers in a hot battle.

“She is cool, ” Lieutenant Tong laughed. “Look at the struck-up lawyer’s face. She defeated him with such sweet words. If she is my woman, I will let her scold me every day.”

pan,d a-n0vel Ming Yunwei looked at the girl wearing a blush-coloured pantsuit. Her hair was combed into a ponytail. Red coloured her lips. Not only was her voice melodious but she was a goddess to look at.

“Captain Ming, where are you going?” Lieutenant Tong asked.

“None of your business, ” Ming Yunwei said as he took long strides and reached the woman who was wiping sweat off her forehead in the harsh sun. He offered her the water bottle and waited for her to notice him.

An Xiulan was wiping her sweat off her forehead when she saw someone offering her water. She darted her gaze and saw a tall and handsome officer standing there. No, it was not that he was too handsome that she couldn’t remove her eyes from him. It was just that men in uniform were her weakness. As long as they were wearing the uniform, she would find them dashing and handsome.

“Thank you, Captain, “An Xiulan smiled at him.

Ming Yunwei raised his brow. “You know me?”

An Xiulan chuckled. “No, I just recognise your rank from your inform.”

“Not many people can do this, ” Ming Yunwei commented.

“That’s true, ” An Xiulan nodded her head. “But when you have a family in your line of work, you understand a lot of things.”

Because of Han Zixin, she learned a lot of things about the police force. He was the reason why she wanted to make a career in criminal law. Whenever he would tell her stories of the cases he solved, this would fill her with excitement to be as cool as him in her job.

“Your family works in this city?” Ming Yunwei asked.

“He uses the term *classified* whenever I ask him about his job, ” An Xiulan said. “I didn’t know one day I will use the term to decline to answer you.”

“It’s alright, ” Ming Yunwei said. “There is a lot of information that we can’t share with our family because of the nature of the job.” He took a pause to stare at her gorgeous face and said, “Do you need a minute of rest? You look pale.”

“Actually, I’m just not used to the hot weather of the country, “An Xiulan smiled. “Summers were not this harsh in Boston. By the way, thank you for the water.”

It was the same time when Han Zixin came out of the penitentiary office after a round. He saw the scene where An Xiulan was giving that smile full of sunshine to an asshole who didn’t deserve it. He stopped hearing what his subordinate had to say as he took faster steps to reach her. As he reached near her, he pulled her wrist and she fell on his chest.

“Deputy Chief!” Ming Yunwei raged. How dare this punk behave like this with a woman? He deserved to be punished.

An Xiulan blinked her eyes. She didn’t react as she could recognise who it was with just his presence.

Han Zixin didn’t bother to spare him a glance as he looked at her in concern and asked, “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to do this. Did I hurt you?”

An Xiulan shook her head.

“Why do you look pale?” Han Zixin asked.

“Harsh sun, ” An Xiulan sighed.

Han Zixin quickly responded and moved to stand in front of her where the sunrays would not fall on her face. He also stopped Ming Yunwei’s view of her. It was like killing two birds with the same shot.

“Why are you here?” Han Zixin questioned him.

“Oh, I’m here to meet a client, ” An Xiulan said. “Didn’t you say you work in headquarters? Why are you here?”

“Classified, ” Han Zixin used the word again and she sighed.

“Will you ever tell me anything?” An Xiulan questioned.

Han Zixin chuckled. “For that, our last names needed to be the same.”

“I didn’t know you wanted to be adopted by my mom this bad, ” An Xiulan scoffed, suppressing the smile from spreading on her lips. Gosh, could he not do this each time? It gives her a little heart attack.

“Little blockhead, ” Han Zixin groaned, tapping on her head.

“Miss An, ” She heard the voice and turned to look at Zhang Yiming standing a little away from her. She crossed her arms over her chest and waited for him to apologise to her.

“I apologise for my behaviour. I should not have judged you on the basis of my past, ” Zhang Yiming said. He later realised how wrong he had been. Just because he had been hurt once didn’t mean everyone would try to hurt him. He could not let his past experience ruin his future and present. He had to choose his battles wisely.

“What did you do to my girl that you have to say to her?” Han Zixin raised his brow. Oh, did he mention that he didn’t like this asshole too?

“Gosh, Han Zixin stop being so protective all the time, ” An Xiulan said with a look of impatience. “Also, he thought I used my scumbag father to find a job at NL.”

“You still calling him scumbag?” Han Zixin raised his brow.

“He mistreated me for sixteen years and to make it up to An Xiulan, he had to dote on me for thirty-eight years, ” An Xiulan said as a matter of fact. “Only, eight years passed. He has a long way to go.”

“You are right, ” Han Zixin said, understanding his logic.

Zhang Yiming couldn’t understand why was this officer giving him death stares. Did he offend him in some way? He didn’t recall offending him. Little did he know that mistreating An Xiulan could offend the entire Han, Lu and Gu and An family.
