Chapter 265: Chapter 265 Sister Tiger Was Stabbed In The Back
“I’m fine!” Dong Xiaoye replied to me in a cold tone, seemingly taking out her anger on me. But shortly after, she sighed and explained to me as if complaining, “I just don’t understand what Captain Lin is thinking. I had also participated in yesterday’s mission, but after he returned to the station in the morning, not only did he actually tell everyone not to disclose anything about the operation last night to me, but he also gave me a one-week long vacation. Little Chu, you tell me, is this the time for a vacation? He is clearly hiding something from me!”
I couldn’t help but be dazed. Lin Zhi wouldn’t even let Dong Xiaoye know the details of the operation last night? This unreasonable behavior was indeed strange. I frowned and said, “He just gave you a one-week vacation? Did he say anything else? How do you know that he told other people not to disclose any information about the operation last night to you?”
Dong Xiaoye’s hand holding the steering wheel trembled, and her expression suddenly became a little twisted, “It’s not exactly a vacation, he said that it is also a mission. He asked me to. . . to. . .”
“Take care of me?” As soon as Dong Xiaoye’s face turned red, I knew I was right.
“Don’t get the wrong idea. Captain Lin didn’t misunderstand our relationship. He knew that we are friends, so he thought it would be more convenient for me to take care of you. . .”
My forehead was sweating. . . I originally didn’t think about that. But after hearing what Sister Tiger said, I also couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed.
“He knows that you don’t trust the police, so he is worried about that. . . Hmph! Actually, he is right. You wouldn’t have been injured if you trusted us. . .” In the latter half of her sentence, Dong Xiaoye began to complain again.
I smiled bitterly and didn’t dare to talk back. Dong Xiaoye rolled her eyes and continued, “It was Wang Jie who told me about it secretly. That guy is a sycophant. He said that Captain Lin did it to save me. Someone seemed to have filed a complaint against me. He said that someone from the top wanted to check my background. Hmph! I didn’t do anything wrong, so why do I need to be scared of them? But Captain Lin just refused to admit it, insisting that it is the task to take care of you. But he also forbade me to return to the station. I think he just didn’t want to tell me who stabbed me in the back!”
Wang Jie was indeed a sycophant, but he was not sycophantic toward Lin Zhi. Sister Tiger was really dumb in this respect. I held back the urge to laugh and asked curiously, “Filed a complaint against you? Complain about what?”
Dong Xiaoye was dazed, her face suddenly had a flash of panic. With just this momentary distraction, she almost ran behind the car in front. She quickly slammed on the brake.
Fortunately, I had fastened my seat belt. Otherwise, I would’ve definitely been thrown out of the front window. But even then, Sister Tiger’s face also turned pale in fear, and she finally didn’t dare to drive at high speed anymore.
After clearing her throat to dispel the awkwardness, she carried on, “It’s nothing, it’s just the boring act of the boring people. They are rich people after all, and they care about their faces the most, so after they lost their faces, naturally, they would want some explanations from the police. . .”
Rich people? Was it the hostage last night? After pondering for a moment, I had a rough idea. My heart jumped suddenly and the muscles on my face stiffened unconsciously, “Is it related to me?”
Dong Xiaoye said lightly, “No.”
Despite her calm expression, I knew that she lied.
It was no wonder that Lin Zhi didn’t let Dong Xiaoye participate in the post-operation work. It turned out that someone had targeted her. In fact, it was not hard to tell that this could be a deliberate attempt by one of the rescued hostages, and the intention was to discredit the police. In terms of why they would pick Dong Xiaoye, there was only one reason, and that was. . . Dong Xiaoye knew me, so did the leader of the gunmen, Xu Heng!
Dong Xiaoye and Mo Fei were neither searched nor tied up by the gunmen last night. Those normally arrogant people definitely felt both envious and humiliated. In addition, I used my own life to exchange for the lives of the two women, but in the end, not only did Xu Heng not kill me, but he also showed a lot of respect towards me. Moreover, he even picked me to leave the hall that was planted with bombs with him. . .
Now that Xu Heng had run away, and Dong Xiaoye, Mo Fei, and I were the only three hostages who had never been humiliated by the gunmen. Therefore, it was inevitable that I became the most suspicious person in everyone’s eyes.
The people who became hostages were either government officials or businessmen. They were the kind of people that were very good at scheming. Therefore, it was understandable that some people would doubt my relationship with Xu Heng. But because of me, they even suspected Dong Xiaoye? This was something I didn’t expect. Blaming myself for being too careless, I regretted that I didn’t catch Xu Heng.
“I am sorry!”
“I said already that it has nothing to do with you, so why do you need to apologize? !”
Seeing that Dong Xiaoye was trying to hide it from me, I was touched. This woman would rather hold back her grievances than doubt my relationship with Xu Heng like other people. Such a loyal friend, it was very difficult to find one nowadays.
I was really lucky that I could meet Sister Tiger and become friends with her. But it was very unlucky for her that she would become friends with someone who would bring trouble to her. . .
‘Don’t let me find out who did this to her, otherwise, I would definitely not let the person go easily!’
At this moment, I was very angry.
. . .
“Five o’clock, just in time. Yuan Yuan will come back around six o’clock. Haha.”
“You don’t want to let her know about your unemployment, nor do you want to let her know about your injuries. Hmph, let me see how long you can hide them from her.” Dong Xiaoye was so tired that she couldn’t even stand up straight when we got to the door of my flat, “You are neither tall nor fat, but why are you so heavy? I’m so exhausted. I have to stay for a cup of good tea today to recover my energy, otherwise, I don’t think I would have the energy to leave.” Dong Xiaoye complained while having her right arm draped around my shoulder. She was supposed to be here helping me to walk back to my flat, but now, it looked like I was carrying her.
“Actually, Dongfang little brat gave my dad a box of expensive tea two days ago, but I stole a little bit back. So you are lucky today.” I took out the key, inserted the key into the keyhole, and laughed, “I told Yuan Yuan that I had taken a few days off from work because of a sprained foot, so she wouldn’t question me anything about the work. As for the injury, hehe, I will go to the hospital after she goes to school, and I will come back before she leaves school. It will only take a few days for my wound to recover, so she won’t find it out.”
“She won’t find out, but I might die from exhaustion,” Sister Tiger tiredly said, “Hurry up, I don’t think I can stand up anymore. . .”
“That’s because you are lacking sleep, that’s why you are so easy to lose energy. I’ve told you to go home to take a good rest, but you just won’t listen, now you finally regret it… Huh?” I was dazed. I did not turn the key, but the door was already opened on its own. In addition, the security door inside was also open. “Did I not lock the door in the morning?”
Dong Xiaoye smiled and said, “I don’t know, maybe you can’t think of anything straight because of pain? ‘Elder Sister Xiaoye, you are finally here. Help me, and send me to the hospital. This pain is killing me.’ Hahahaha…”
This woman was making fun of me because what I said this morning, “Did I say ‘help’?”
“Did you not? You definitely said it. . .”
“Oh? Didn’t he like to save other people’s lives? Sister Xiaoye, why did he want you to help him?”
“That’s why I find it funny. . . Hmm?” Probably because of drowsiness, Dong Xiaoye instinctively replied without thinking too much about it. But when she finally realized that it was not me who asked the question, she turned to look at the person inside my flat in shock, “Liu, Liusu? !”
My legs almost gave out. If it weren’t for the support of Dong Xiaoye, I would have sat on the floor with horror already. The person sitting on the sofa with arms crossed was exactly my girlfriend—— Cheng Liusu!
“Liusu? Why are you here? !”
Although I asked this question, I had already understood what was going on. No wonder I always felt that I had forgotten something important today. It turned out that I had forgotten about her. In the conversation we had last night over the phone, she said that she wanted to discuss something with me, so she would come to see me at home today. . .
Because I was still in Crouching Dragon Mountain Resort when she called, and Mo Fei and Dong Xiaoye were quarreling with each other at that time, I didn’t keep that in mind. But I didn’t expect that to lead to this!
At the moment, there was not just Liusu who was sitting in the living room. There were two other women as well!
Mo Fei who was originally sitting in the chair, stood up hurriedly like a child who had made a mistake, with a deep apology and shame on her face, “Chu Nan, I’m sorry, I originally wanted to send you to the hospital, but I didn’t expect to run into Liusu at your door, so I just…”
Dong Xiaoye raised her eyebrows and said angrily, “So you told her everything? Miss Mo, you can never keep secrets, can you? Why does Chu Nan want to hide it from Liusu?”
“Of course I understand it! That’s why I apologized, but you are in no position to criticize me.” Mo Fei asked Dong Xiaoye coldly, “Officer Dong, I have no problem with you sending Chu Nan to the hospital, but you should give me a notice as well. At least, you should tell me which hospital did you send him to, right? How can we not be worried if we can’t find him? We couldn’t even get to him through the phone.”
Er. . . Neither of us had our phones with us. . . I was speechless…
Dong Xiaoye blushed and hurriedly looked at Liusu, “Liusu, I also didn’t want to hide it from you. It’s just…”
Liusu looked at Mo Fei and then Dong Xiaoye, then she completely ignored the argument between the two of them. Her cold face couldn’t hide sadness between her eyebrows. “Why am I here? So you are saying that I shouldn’t be here! Hmph! Since I’m not welcomed here, I will leave now! Cousin, let’s go home!”
After saying that coldly, she grabbed Shu Tong who was also glaring at me like she was glaring at her enemy and was about to leave the flat.
“No, I didn’t mean that!” I quickly grabbed her wrist and smiled sycophantically, “What I said was wrong, okay? My flat is your flat, so what do you mean that you are not welcomed here?”
Those words were too intimate, but I knew Liusu’s character too well. After I said those words to her in front of Mo Fei and Dong Xiaoye, her feeling of jealousy and dissatisfaction would definitely reduce a lot.
Sure enough, Liusu’s face blushed. Although she was still in a bad mood, she didn’t shake off my hand.
“Glib-tongued rascal!” Shu Tong gave me and Dong Xiaoye a contemptuous look, then pulled Liusu and walked towards the door, “Look how intimate they are, Liusu, don’t trust him. He is definitely cheating on you. Let’s just ignore him and go home. Even if I need help, I would not ask help from this kind of guy.”
At this moment, Dong Xiaoye’s arm still draped over my shoulder and I also held her waist. This kind of posture naturally would give people a wrong idea. After looking at each other instinctively, we hurriedly stepped away from each other, however, our reaction, which looked like two people who had been caught cheating, made it even worse.
“Liusu, it is not what you think it is. Chu Nan’s gunshot wound was on his thigh, so I had to help him. . .”
“Gunshot wound?” Liusu interrupted her before Dong Xiaoye could finish speaking, and turned to look at Mo Fei with a surprised and anxious expression, “Didn’t you say that he only had a minor injury? Why was it a gunshot wound? How can you call that a minor injury? !”
