“Where are you?” It was Long Bing

Xia Lei looked at the signs outside of his car“I’an Street There’s a Walht away” Long Bing ended the call abruptly

Xia Lei continued to wait in the car, worried sick over Qing Caiyue and Zhu Xuanyue Thebut he ulti If Qin Xiang had found anything new, he would surely contact Xia Lei right away The lack of contact froood indication that there was no new discovery

True to her words, Long Bing arrived at Xia Lei’s spot within a few et here

She hastily parked her car by the shoulder of the road and immediately went over to the driver side of Xia Lei’s Chevrolet Suburban “Move over, I’ll drive”

Xia Lei hurriedly cli entered the vehicle Iine and drove away

“Were you nearby?” Xia Lei was confused “What’s going on?”

Long Bing’s expression was stone cold “Soym I received intel that a total of twenty-five people had died in the gyasped, “That’s insane What happened?”

“I’m not sure The preliminary suspicion was a terrorist attack The attackers seeas on the victias?”

“I’m not too sure about the overall situation, but this is the inforned you to investigate this alone?”

“Of course not, Liang Siyao and Tang Yuyan were assigned the case too” Long Bing continued, “They’ve probably arrived at the scene, I've et you”

“What am I supposed to do?”

“Elder shi+ had asked for your help on the investigation” Long Bing spared Xia Lei a brief glance “Tang Yuyan was supposed to get you but she wasn’t willing to do so”

Xia Lei could only smile helplessly After that whole ordeal, it was only natural for her to be enraged How could one expect her to coet hi to feel his te switched the topic “I was surprised that the authorities had ood If youYuyan and Shentu Tianyin could quit their fight and your sister disciple could finally stop having false hope You’ll be at ease soon”

“What about you?” Xia Lei stared at her side profile He wanted to knoas on her enuinely happy for you to be able to marry someone like Fan Fan I’m sure your future rivals and ene you trouble in the near future Thunder Horse Organization needed a powerful feht person for the job She could help you take care of those oddities and you could focus all your attention on your work”

Xia Lei came closer to her ear to tell her what happened

Long Bing was a little stunned to hear that She replied, “If a woths for you, it means that she really wants to marry you Be it fake or real, she probably doesn’t really care The probleo With what happened earlier, she must be extremely humiliated and eenuinely likes you, she must be very hurt”

“Does she kno nice you are to her?”

“I’d appreciate it if she could stop picking a fight with hter, it’s completely understandable to have such a temperament”

“Did you know that… The secret task you received was actually…” Xia Lei hesitated He inhaled deeply and continued, “Was actually aimed to remove you from Bureau 101 before she takes over Boss shi+’s position?”

Screech!

The Chevrolet Suburban carip around the steering wheel was insanely tight She was silent but Xia Lei could read that she was furious and frustrated

Xia Lei wanted to comfort her but he didn’t knohat to say Instead, he reached an ar wheel No words were exchanged

Beep… Beep… Beep…

The co snapped back to reality She inhaled and brought the device to her lips “This is Long Bing, over”

“This is Liang Siyao” Liang Siyao's voice rang over the device “Where are you both? What’s taking you so long?”

“We’re on our ill be there soon” Long Bing sla the vehicle to an acceleration

This was how Long Bing was Nothing mattered more than her job and country Not even her life

Ten ym The streets that the facility was located on were already locked by the police Despite putting up a barricade tape, it didn’t hinder curious passers-by to observe the scene There was a large crowd around the area, eager to learn about the situation

Long Bing led Xia Lei into the gy inside for long

Tang Yuyan glared daggers at Xia Lei

To which Xia Lei had to brace hi Siyao flashed Xia Lei a slare at him

Xia Lei explained, “Yuyan, I really didn’t want this to happen but…”

“Are you sure about that?” Tang Yuyan’s eyes were moist “You seem extremely happy about it! The authorities wanted to introduce Fan Fan to you She’s pretty and has a higher position than I do You ht?!”

Xia Lei didn’t wish to argue with Tang Yuyan There was slight guilt in his heart but the ly about the situation Perhaps if he hadn’t found out that shi+ Boren and her had plotted to reret would’ve been stronger

“Co Bing halted theuet out”
