Chapter 564: A Lost Xia Xue
Translator: VinceStar Editor: PrisMiko
How would Xia Xue know the stakes in this case? She thought that she had made a great contribution, but she didnât expect to be scolded instead. She was aggrieved. âIf we donât catch him, are we leaving him there?â
âXia Xue! When can you be more mature? Can you understand the big picture?â Chen Fei shook his head and said, âHe is just a small character, and the boss behind-the-scenes hasnât appeared yet!â
âCaptain Chen, IâŚâ Xia Xue had a bucket of cold water poured on her by Chen Fei and immediately awoke by a lot. Indeed, her action at the time was too impulsive! Xia Xue didnât ask for advice. She just took action on the corrupted custom official because of her eagerness to make a contribution. She really wanted to have an achievement because she was afraid that other people in the team would look down on her. She wanted to solve a big case, but she didnât expect to ruin it instead.
âOkay, you donât have to say anything anymore. You donât have to be responsible for this matter anymore. Later on, hand over your gun and youâre suspended for a month. Go back and reflect on this deeply!â Chen Fei waved his hand and yelled.
âCaptain Chen⌠I would definitely ask for advice the next time. Can you not suspend meâŚâ When Xia Xue heard she was going to be suspended, she immediately became anxious.
âA suspension is already being tolerant to you. I wanted to transfer you to a lower level in the police station such as a household registry employee and the like!â Chen Fei said that and didnât care about Xia Xue anymore. He turned and went out. As he left, he said, âSend your reflection paper to my desk later.â
âYesâŚâ Xia Xue didnât dare to have any objections again. If she said anything more, she was afraid that she wouldnât even be a criminal police officer.
Xia Xue was full of remorse. How can I be so stupid? Could it be that Iâm really not suitable to be a criminal police officer! Just because I am a woman, do I need to work as someone like a clerk?
Resisting the urge to cry, Xia Xue finished her reflection paper and then handed her gun and inspection tools to Chen Fei. She walked out of the police station with her head lowered.
Looking at the familiar office building behind her, Xia Xue finally couldnât hold the tears streaming down her face.
â Di di. ..â There was a sound of a car horn behind Xia Xue.
âStop it!â Xia Xue immediately started scolding impatiently, âThere are so many roads and yet you donât want to drive on those but insist on staying behind your grandmother [1]?â As she said this, she wanted to scold the driver who was behind her, but she closed her mouth immediately.
âSecond UncleâŚâ Xia Xue looked at the taxi behind her with a stupid look.
âMy dumb niece, why are you crying? Who bullied you?â Xia Zhidong stopped the car, jumped out of the cab and quickly ran to Xia Xue.
âSecond Uncle⌠Iâm fineâŚâ Xia Xue quickly wiped the tears on her face with her hands, but her red swollen eyes couldnât deceive anyone.
âChild, what are you saying? You are obviously crying and yet you still say it was nothing!â Xia Zhidong shook his head and said, âHurry up and get into the car. Itâs windy here. Later it will blow in your eyes and make them even more swollen!â
This time around Xia Xue did not persist. Instead, she followed Xia Zhidong in the direction of the car.
âHey, youâre not allowed to park here. Whatâs the matter with you? Hurry up and drive away!â A traffic policeman just came over here and shouted at Xia Zhidong, âIf youâre not leaving, Iâll be issuing a ticket now!â
âWhat are you being noisy for?!â Xia Xue wasnât in a good mood. At this time, when some other people created more noise, she yelled back immediately, dissatisfied.
There were very few police officers in Song Jiang who didnât recognize Xia Xue. One was because of Xia Xueâs t.i.tle of the female Tyrannosaurus was very famous. The second was that she was the only criminal police officer in Song Jiang who had been transferred from the criminal police team to the traffic police team to reflect on her behavior.
How could these traffic policemen not know her? The moment he saw Xia Xue, he immediately closed his mouth. He said in his heart, Who provoked the female Tyrannosaurus again? I should speak to her less, or else, it canât be good to be beaten by her.
Xia Zhidong just wanted to explain it, but when he saw how his niece could chase away his most feared traffic police with a few words, he couldnât help but be dumbfounded. This niece is really a bada**!
After they got into the car, Xia Xue still had a look of âdonât provoke me.â Xia Zhidong was helpless. âI say, niece, what happened? Is there anything at your job that didnât go your way, or was someone bullying you?â
âSecond Uncle, you should stop asking. Itâs nothingâŚâ Xia Xue shook her head. To be suspended was a really shameful thing. Xia Xue was embarra.s.sed to say it.
â Ai! I also donât know what you are doing it for. Itâs not that the situation in our family is bad. There is no shortage of money at all. Think about it. As a girl why do you want to become a criminal police officer? This is the work for a man. Why do you want to b.u.t.t in?â Xia Zhidong shook his head. âListen to your Second Uncle. Donât do this anymore. Resign and let your dad introduce you to a good partner. Get married after dating for a few years. How good would it be to meet your husband and educate your children at home?!â
âSecond Uncle⌠You are rightâŚâ Xia Xue nodded slowly. Just as Xia Zhidong was feeling some joy, he heard Xia Xueâs reply. âWhy do you have to drive a taxi? Isnât it good enough to go to my dadâs company to help out? Why do you have to work so hard?â
Xia Zhidong was speechless from Xia Xueâs words. He only hated that he had talked too much just now. This was like lifting a rock to drop it on his own feet! Xia Zhidong reluctantly said, âYour uncle has no business mindset. Iâm not willing to think about those things in business. If you let me manage your dadâs company, it wonât even last for two and a half days! Donât you know your Second Uncle? I only know how to offer my physical strength. I donât know about other things. If you let me go to become your dadâs driver, wouldnât the others be laughing at your father? The younger brother of the chairman is a driver. It canât be good for others to hear it!â
âYeah, Second Uncle. Since that is the case, you should stop persuading me! Becoming a criminal police officer is my childhood dream. I want to be a criminal policewoman who can solve the big cases, not trash like right now!â Xia Xue nodded and spoke.
âTrash? How are you trash? Who dares to say that my niece is trash?â Xia Zhidong said quickly, âWho said it? Your Second Uncle will go and beat him up!â
âSecond Uncle!â Xia Xue felt so angry yet it was funny. âYou stop fooling around with this. Iâm really fine. Itâs just that I messed up some things at work. Captain Chen told me to go back and reflect on it!â
âMessed up? Which newcomers donât make mistakes? Think openly a little more. Let Second Uncle take you home.â Xia Zhidong shook his head, and he didnât ask more about Xia Xueâs work.
After getting out of the car, Xia Xue didnât go home directly. Instead, she went into the Blue Fish Bar. She wasnât in a good mood today. She wanted to get thoroughly drunk. Drinking alone didnât mean anything. Xia Xue wanted to find someone to accompany her, but when she took out her phone and looked at the contact list, she suddenly had an urge to cry.
Over the past years, Xia Xue had almost cut off all her previous friends and had devoted herself to the work. Usually, except for work, she was just working. She didnât even have one friend with whom she would have fun.
Looking at the contact list on the phone, other than her colleagues, it was her family. Xia Xue shook her head helplesslyâŚ
Yang Ming? Xia Xue suddenly saw a name on the phone, and her heart suddenly moved. He would come and accompany me, right? The last time it was he who accompanied me to drink. This kid can be quite good sometimes!
Thinking of this, Xia Xue called Yang Mingâs phone.
Yang Ming was at home looking at the medicinal voodoo book that Lan Ling had left for him. When the phone rang, he picked it up. âh.e.l.lo?â
âYang Ming⌠This is Xia XueâŚâ Xia Xue greeted.
âXia Xue? Why are you looking for me?â Yang Ming felt very puzzled. Ever since he last drank with Xia Xue, he hadnât met her. It had been a long time already. He didnât know why Xia Xue was looking for him.
âYou come over. Buy me a drink,â Xia Xue spoke as if she was giving instructions.
âMe? Buy you a drink? Now?â Yang Ming couldnât help but frown. Isnât this woman too overbearing? I have seen unreasonable people before, but I have never seen someone as unreasonable as her!
âYes, now. I am at the Blue Fish Bar. You come right now!â Xia Xue ordered.
âI say, have you made a mistake? If you ask me to go, then I would go now? Letâs not speak about whether or not I have anything to do here first. Your att.i.tude is very problematic. Youâre asking me to go over and buy you a drink? Are you out of your mind?â Yang Ming was angry.
âYang Ming, you promised to be my long term meal ticket. Right. Are you regretting it now? How many times have you bought me a meal?â Xia Xue was very reluctant.
Yang Ming slapped his head. I have really forgotten about this. However, whatâs said cannot be taken back. Being a man, I shall not be too calculative with her. So, he said, âI can buy you a drink. However, next time can you please make an appointment in advance?â
âYang Ming! Are you done? Your grandmother [1], I, am in a bad mood. To let you accompany me is a form of glory to you. It means that Iâm treating you as a good buddy. If you still have so many excuses, then forget it. Just donât come!â She hung up the phone as she finished her words.
âInexplicable!â Yang Ming looked at the phone that was hung up and felt his anger raging. Who are you pretending to be? I might as well not go! After putting the phone aside, Yang Ming continued to look at the book of voodoo.
