Chapter 563: Chapter 563 Crazy Woman Style_1

After leaving the hospital, I took out my phone intending to give Zhao’er a call and pick her up, but then I noticed there was a missed call and a text message.

"Do you have time now? There’s something I need your help with."

This message naturally made me furrow my brows because it was none other than Xian Qianling who had sent it.

"This isn’t Crazy Woman’s style, is it?"

After a slight surprise, I, already sitting in the driver’s seat, made a call to Xian Qianling. The phone rang six times before Xian Qianling finally picked up.

"Hello."

The voice on the other end was kind of low, as if deliberately suppressed, and the surroundings seemed exceptionally quiet.

"Hey, Crazy Woman, what’s going on with you? Out of nowhere, you send a cryptic message. What do you mean by something you want my help with? Wow, since I’ve known you, this is the first time I’ve heard such a sour and bitter message. Don’t tell me your dad, mom, grandpa, and all are pushing you to find a boyfriend again; I can agree to any other condition, but just not this one—I can’t play your pretend boyfriend this time. Crazy Woman, no offense, but you’re not getting any younger. You should seriously find yourself a boyfriend instead of throwing yourself into your work. Criminals will never run out, but once a woman ages past a certain point, then truly no one will want you."

Normally, Xian Qianling would blow her top the moment she heard the words "Crazy Woman," but today she was unusually motionless.

This is too eerie!

Too frightening!

"Hey? Wait a minute, why is there an echo when I talk on your end?"

At this moment, Xian Qianling’s heart was stampeded by a million alpacas. The reason was that she was standing in a multimedia room, at the podium, with a microphone at her ear. All the sounds from the phone were being amplified by the microphone and reaching the ears of the several dozen people below.

It would’ve been fine on a normal day since everyone in the Yuhang City Criminal Police Brigade knew me, but just my luck that today there happened to be a new group of people, among whom was a senior sister she had admired the most during her student days!

"Li! Mu! Yun!" Xian Qianling almost gritted her teeth as she spat out these three words, "Half an hour later, in the office on the third floor of the Criminal Police Brigade! If you don’t come, you’ll face the consequences!"

"Snap!"

Xian Qianling angrily snapped her flip phone shut.

Zhang Zifeng and Sun Mingyu exchanged glances, both swallowing nervously. They had not expected you to call at such a critical moment and cause such an embarrassing scene.

Putting that aside, Xian Qianling’s appearance, figure, and family background were all first-rate. Anyone who could marry her would have to struggle one less lifetime, but so far, all who approached her had slinked away in defeat.

Not to mention anything else, her personality alone was something no one could tame.

And now, everyone in the Yuhang City Criminal Police Brigade knew of your existence, and most of them were aware of the complicated and ambiguous relationship between the two of you. They also hoped that your relationship with Xian Qianling could evolve into something more concrete, and they were eager to see this honest, tempered woman, who loathed evil, get married off, so that she could experience the true delights of being a woman.

"Zhang Zifeng."

"Present!"

Hearing Xian Qianling suddenly call his name, Zhang Zifeng sprang up from his chair like a spring, his entire back drenched in cold sweat. He thought that Xian Qianling had caught the covert exchange of glances between him and Sun Mingyu.

"You tell them the rest of the case analysis."

"Oh."

Relieved, Zhang Zifeng stepped up to the lectern while Xian Qianling stormed out of the dark multimedia room, fuming.

"You little brat, just wait and see how I’ll sort you out later!"

Leaning on the hallway railing, Xian Qianling looked out at the sky and muttered viciously.

"You, at your age, still act like an ignorant little girl."

A gentle voice came from behind her. Xian Qianling turned around to find a woman standing there with striking facial features and a neat ponytail. She was also dressed in a police uniform, and her rank was the same as Xian Qianling’s.

By the looks of her, the woman was somewhat older than Xian Qianling, and her gaze toward Xian Qianling was filled with extra care.

"Senior sister, you heard him just now. That kid is so infuriating!" Xian Qianling said, visibly aggrieved. "I texted him nicely earlier, hoping he would join this case. But no, in front of all those people, he gave me a sermon like I’m his seven aunts and eight aunts."

The woman looked at Xian Qianling with a smile and asked, "Do you like him?"

"I..." Turning her head away, Xian Qianling took a deep breath before nodding, revealing her true feelings candidly, "Yeah, I do like him. We both have wandered on the brink of life and death. But no matter how hard I try, I can never get close to his heart. Also, he already has a girlfriend."

Upon hearing this, the woman couldn’t help but sigh softly, "I thought with your personality you’d definitely have a passionate romance. I never expected you to fall into an inescapable quagmire."

The woman knew Xian Qianling’s personality all too well, a junior sister she had always cared for deeply. Xian Qianling was always a stubborn one, like a hungry wolf, once she set her eyes on prey, she would fight to the end, never giving up!

Brushing the bangs from her forehead, Xian Qianling said to the woman, "Let’s not talk about that brat right now. The case at hand is a big one, and as time passes, it’s likely to spread out, making it hard to handle later."

The woman nodded, "I understand. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have brought the team here to learn from your experience. Last year when I visited the teacher’s home for New Year’s greetings, the teacher specifically praised you, saying you solved several big cases last year. Two of them were especially tricky, and you cracked them before the Chu Sect could, winning a great deal of face for our police force."

Without taking all the credit, Xian Qianling said with a smile, "I’m okay dealing with those high-IQ crimes, but when it comes to those supernatural cases, I often rack my brains without figuring anything out. Thankfully, that brat helped with those cases. Without him, we wouldn’t have found the slightest clue."

"Now that you mention it, I’m even more curious about him. A man who could captivate Jiangsu and Zhejiang’s top policewoman must be extraordinary."

"He’s just a block of stone!"

Xian Qianling said indignantly.

Ten minutes later, when Ye Xiao’s pickup truck entered the courtyard of the Criminal Police Brigade, Xian Qianling gestured downwards with her lips, "Here he comes."

Catching a glimpse of the extravagant pickup, the woman said with a laugh, "Ho, this kid’s quite a character, driving such a cool truck. Looks like, in many ways, the two of you are quite similar."

Xian Qianling watched steadfastly as you got out of the truck and sighed, "I don’t want to be his sister..."
