“Oh, I’ve heard of them.”
Someone added, “Aren’t they a family of scientists? d.a.m.n. Genetics do matter after all. The whole family is in the field of science. He’s so amazing, and he’s so young.”
Director w.a.n.g smiled. “Yes, they are a family of scientists. Their grandfather studied overseas back then as well. He did research with the Americans and he came back home when our country was liberated to join in the revolutionary movement. He was the first batch of scientists to build our country. Jiang Yuning is not only just a physicist; he is an astrophysicist. I can’t divulge too many secrets, but I can tell you he had some breakthroughs with his research and nothing must happen to him.”
“I understand, Director. I’m willing to step forward to protect him.” Hong Li from Team One stood up immediately.
“Yup. Hong Li is the most agile and capable officer in the police force.” Director w.a.n.g nodded with satisfaction.
“I want to go too.” Nian Xi raised her hand quickly. “I can do this.”
Director w.a.n.g looked at her and said, “Nian Xi, you are too young, and your body physique is a little…”
Nian Xi said stubbornly, “Jiang Yuning is a man. I think there should be a female officer there who is more attentive to the details. Communication would be easier as well. After all, a man and woman are a heavenly match.”
The crowd burst into laughter.
Director w.a.n.g laughed as well. “Don’t treat me like a fool. Men and women as partners, spells trouble.”
Nian Xi scratched her head. “Anyway, a woman is better at coordinating.”
Director w.a.n.g nodded his head. “That’s true…”
“Director, I want to go too.” Feng Jichuan suddenly stood up. “I think I am the most agile here.”
“Although you are the best, we are teaming up with the police force from another state to crack down on a case of drug trafficking. You are in charge of the case, so I don’t think you should leave your position now. This is a crucial moment.” The Director then picked four people other than Feng Jichuan.
“Director w.a.n.g. Why didn’t you mention my name?” Nian Xi protested again saying, “You seemed to approve of me earlier…”
“Yup. So I’m sending Fan Yi. She’s much more experienced than you. All right. We’ll end this meeting here.” The Director clapped his hands.
Nian Xi was going to faint from frustration.
Feng Jichuan said to her, “It’s good that you’re not going. It’s too dangerous.”
“Dangerous? If I’m going to stay away from danger, why am I a policewoman?” Nian Xi was annoyed.
Feng Jichuan frowned and said strictly, “Nian Xi, I think you need to correct your mindset at the moment. Although your job seems dry and mundane, you should do it with a hundred percent of your effort. Every job has its own meaning and purpose. If you’re constantly thinking about putting yourself in the forefront, I have to be honest with you. Your mindset is not suited for fieldwork.”
Nian Xi’s chest was heaving with anger.
She knew these things but she couldn’t stand taking a lecture from Feng Jichuan.
“Think about it yourself.” Feng Jichuan looked at her helplessly and walked away.
“Nian Xi, don’t think too much about it. Feng Jichuan has a point. This is no ordinary person we’re protecting,” Chen Jing said.
“Ok.” Nian Xi nodded her head. She wasn’t an unreasonable person. She was just pa.s.sionate when she volunteered herself and she admired the scientists.
Back in the office, Nian Xi couldn’t resist satisfying her curiosity; she looked up Jiang Yuning on the internet, but there was barely any information about him.
In the afternoon, she found out that Captain Luo, Zhan Hong and the rest of the officers had already gone over to Jiang Yuning’s.
She didn’t hear about anything else, and went home at around six o’clock.
The next morning, her colleagues were huddled up in a discussion. Fan Yi who was about to leave for Paris was there as well; she looked dejected.
