Chapter 29: Got Hooked

  Inside the Flying Bird Cold Drink Shop, the background color was still blue sky and white clouds. On the four-sided screen above the center of the store, a delightful domestic animation "Calabaza Brothers" was playing, the theme song was so catchy... Rub-a-dub-dub, rub-a-dub-dub, infinite bromance rub-a-dub-dub...

  Although it's already autumn, there are still many customers in the store. Perhaps because it's Sunday, the proportion of couples is exceptionally high. The tables are filled with sweet and loving young lovers, making others envy them.

  On a seat, a beautiful girl sat, her long hair fluttering, with a smile on her face, her arms resting on the table, her hands supporting her chin, gazing up at the screen in the center of the store, occasionally stopping to take a sip of apple juice, her red hair clip particularly eye-catching, attracting many males in the store to frequently pay attention.

  Shangguan Nengren and Liu Yilan walked into the store, the girl's eyes caught a glimpse of this scene, suddenly showing a look of surprise, then narrowed her eyes, with a hint of a smile at the corner of her mouth.

  "A cup of vanilla ice cream, and another cup of apple juice, thank you." Shang Guan Ren handed over the money, soon, a cup of ice cream and a cup of apple juice were placed on a tray. Shang Guan Ren held the tray, looked around, hoping to find an empty table.

  It was probably a coincidence that his gaze met the girl's in mid-air, and seeing the girl's deeply meaningful smile, Ouyang Nian was shocked: "Xiang Beibei?"

  Shangguan Nengren called out her name and smiled at Beibei, beckoning her over: "Come sit down."

  Shangguan Nengren smiled and thought it was a coincidence to meet Xiang Beibei again in this place. He felt a thrill of excitement, carrying the tray with Liu Yilan to Xiang Beibei's table.

  The table for Beibei's family was a four-seater. Shang Guan Nian pulled out a chair to let Liu Yilan sit down, and he himself sat opposite Beibei.

  Put down the tray, and place the vanilla ice cream in front of Liu Yilan. Shang Guan Nengren smiled and said: "Yilan, do you still remember this sister? The one who went fishing with me last time."

  Liu Yilan's gaze had been wandering to Beibei's chest since just now, and the bust that exceeded the high school student level made Liu Yilan extremely self-deprecating. When she heard Shangguan Nengren's introduction, Liu Yilan turned her head to look at Shangguan Nengren, and the happy smile on Shangguan Nengren's face made Liu Yilan heartbroken and secretly cried: Wuuu, big brother really likes women with big breasts...

  Good upbringing made Liu Yilan force a smile: "Sister, hello."

  She smiled slightly at Beibei: "Hello, are you guys... on a date?"

  "About... about a date?" Liu Yilan's face suddenly turned red, and she covered her face with both hands: "Wh... what are you talking about, hehe... hehehehe..."

  To Beibei: “……”

  Shangguan Ruo: "......"

  Shang Guan Neng Ren sighed and said, "Don't joke around, this little girl came to find me to go fishing in the middle of the day. We just got back from Ming Shui Lake and are a bit thirsty, so we came over to have a drink."

  After a pause, Upper Official Neng asked: "What are you doing here? Are you alone?"

  After listening to Shang Guan Neng's words, he smiled at Bei Bei and said: "I'm bored at home, so I came out for a walk. I actually wanted to find someone to accompany me, but no one paid attention to me, haha..."

  "Oh?" Shang Guan Neng Ren looked at Xiang Bei Bei, feeling that there was something unusual about her smile, and couldn't help but say: "Then in the future when you're bored, just look for me! After all, I have plenty of free time, you know."

  Shangguan Neng said something about the privileges within the school, and Xiang Beibei also understood. In the past week, Shangguan Neng's "lawlessness" made the whole class envy, jealous, and resentful, even if she had a little bit of jealousy. Knowing that Shangguan Neng would have plenty of time later, Xiang Beibei smiled slightly and said, "Aren't you afraid I'll be a bother?"

  "What's wrong?" Officer Wang looked puzzled: "What's bothering you?"

  "Hehe, don't want to keep you from your date with another girl."

  “……”

  Officer Wang shook his head: "Don't tease me anymore, with this appearance of mine, which girl would be willing to go on a date with me?"

  "Haha, that's not true, there's one right in front of you!" He glanced at Liu Yilan, who was immersed in her own world with a silly smile on her face.

  "Her?" Shang Guan Neng Ren burst out laughing: "She's just a kid, what kind of date is that? But she's a good girl, I quite like her."

  Liu Yilan was originally immersed in the world of "dating" and couldn't extricate herself, but just now she felt her nose itching, couldn't help but rub it, and her consciousness also cleared up. In these few seconds, she heard what Shang Guan said behind her: She's a good kid, I quite like her.

  "Like... like... like... do you like it?" Liu Yilan's face turned red, her eyes became distant, and she fell into her own world with a silly smile.

  "... " looked at Liu Yilan who was staring blankly and couldn't help but purse her lips and smile, saying: "Quite cute."

  "Is that so!" Upper official Neng Ren smiled and said: "This child is not only lovely, but also very polite and well-educated. The more I get in touch with her, the more I like her. Now I understand why Zhang Tingting's sister likes her, she really has charm."

  "Charm? Hehe, it's okay." Xiang BeiBei smiled slightly and noticed the apple juice in front of Shang Guan Neng, asking: "You also like apple juice?"

  "Oh?" Shang Guan Neng Ren saw that the drink in front of Bei Bei was also apple juice, and couldn't help but chuckle: "Not bad, mainly because the fragrance of apple juice is very refreshing, I quite like it."

  "Actually, when you sleep, putting two apples beside your pillow can help with sleep and has a good therapeutic effect on insomnia and vivid dreams. You can try it." said to Beibei with rare enthusiasm.

  "Oh, I'll try it out tonight then." Shang Guan Neng smiled and took a sip of apple juice, chatting casually with Xiang Bei Bei. Liu Yi Lan also gradually came back to her senses, seeing that the ice cream was about to melt, she quickly picked up her spoon and put it in her mouth: Mmm, delicious.

  Across from the Fei Niao cold drink shop, a police car was quietly parked in a parking space. The window was open, revealing a refined and elegant face wearing a police uniform, holding binoculars, staring at Xiang Beibei who was talking to Shang Guan Neng, gritting his teeth.

  "This little fox, actually has the mood to drink cold drinks, and this little brother is too, how did she get so close to him? Doesn't he know that this little fox is a ruthless person who doesn't leave any bones behind?" The policewoman muttered to herself, if her superior were here, he would recognize her at a glance, it was precisely Xu Jingchu who still owed him a seafood meal.

  A week has passed and Xu Jingyu still hasn't had time to repay the favor to Guan Neng, because she is busy investigating evidence of Beibei's crime and the gang behind her.

  A week ago, Xu Jingru's father suddenly ordered her to stop all investigations into the Brotherhood Alliance and sealed off her intelligence network, warning her not to make any rash moves or it would be very dangerous.

  Xu Jingru is a woman with a strong sense of justice and a tough personality, who can't tolerate any injustice. She was originally investigating smoothly, but suddenly her father cut off the investigation midway. Xu Jingru couldn't swallow this, so she took matters into her own hands, using her own resources to investigate alone for the past week, despite the danger to her life.

  To investigate and gather evidence, Xu Jingyu even went undercover as a nightclub hostess, frequently visiting the bars and nightclubs under the Brothers Alliance's umbrella. Although Xu Jingyu looked fierce in her police uniform, once she put on a short skirt and makeup, she became a completely charming woman, stunning countless regulars at the nightclubs. If not for her quick wit, she might have been taken advantage of by those old-timers.

  At the same time, this week also made Xu Jingru more deeply feel the connotation of the eight words "the world is chaotic and people's hearts are evil". If you don't go to nightclubs, you will never know how dirty and dark this world is.

  Xu Jingru's heart was deeply shaken, her soul had undergone a series of baptisms, becoming more calm and steady, but her stubborn and unruly temperament remained unchanged. In order to obtain more evidence of the Brothers' Alliance crimes, Xu Jingru endured increasingly intense anger day by day, finally allowing her investigation to make significant progress.

  Today is Sunday, the police are also on holiday, but Xu Jingru still doesn't forget to work, and has been staring at Xiang Beibei who is on half-day holiday, wanting to see what Xiang Beibei usually does during her rest time? Who will she get close to?

  But after a few hours of investigation, Xu Jingru was quite disappointed. Beibei went to a beauty salon from noon school and came out about an hour later. She went shopping at the mall, bought some small ornaments that girls like, and then arrived at Feiniao Cold Drink Store, drinking apple juice and watching cartoons. Soon after, she met Shang Guan Nengren.
