For Lu Mengyao, today was undoubtedly a headache-inducing day.
During the day, for having blown a suspect's cover before, she got a routine tongue-lashing from the chief, Hu Qiang.
At night, her luck only worsened when she ran into Liu Mang.
Not just because he caused her to be chewed out by the chief again, but more importantly, as a woman as beautiful as a blooming flower, she had been fiercely dealt with by him.
For her, this was without a doubt a great humiliation.
Afterwards, just when she got off work and was about to go home for a bath and sleep, having already taken off her clothes, an urgent order came from above. They said an important person's daughter was missing, and the police had to start searching immediately, so she had to work overtime.
After a long search, Lu Mengyao didn't find the wealthy young lady; instead, she found Liu Mang, and to her horror, discovered that he was about to molest a beautiful girl.
Upon closer inspection, Lu Mengyao made a discovery.
It turned out that the beautiful girl was none other than Lin Jiaojiao, the wealthy young lady they were desperately trying to find.
It turned out Lin Jiaojiao had been abducted here by Liu Mang!
Liu Mang had no idea that Lu Mengyao was searching for Lin Jiaojiao and thought she was holding a grudge and looking for trouble with him. No wonder she's a cop, her pursuit skills really are incredible, or should I say, her nose is even better than a dog's. "Look who it is if not Lu Mengyao, Officer Lu. Why aren't you at home snuggling with your boyfriend in bed in the middle of the night, coming to find me instead? Don't tell me, you've got a thing for me?"
Liu Mang teased Lu Mengyao with a chuckle, causing her already unattractive face to instantly turn black, "Good for you, you filthy hooligan, caught red-handed and still grinning. You've really got some nerve. Listen up, you'd better raise your hands nicely for me; otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
As she spoke, Lu Mengyao's hand had already reached for the butt of the gun at her waist, threatening Liu Mang.
Lin Jiaojiao looked curiously at Lu Mengyao, then at Liu Mang, wondering about the relationship between the two, "Liu Mang, did you offend her in the past?"
"Can't really say I offended her, just spanked her a little."
"Spanked?! You spanked that beautiful policewoman?" An astonished Lin Jiaojiao exclaimed, unable to believe that Liu Mang had actually spanked the mature policewoman.
Although it was late, there were still a few couples eating at McDonald's on the second floor.
Hearing Lin Jiaojiao's words, everyone's gaze fell on Lu Mengyao.
Lu Mengyao's face turned into a red apple, her eyes blazing with anger at Liu Mang.
Not only had he spanked her, but he also spread the word!
Right now, Lu Mengyao wished she could find a hole to crawl into, but even more, she wished to slaughter Liu Mang first.
"Damn you, you filthy hooligan, I won't let you off today!"
The nearly crazed Lu Mengyao, with two straight and long legs, charged at Liu Mang.
Getting close, she raised one leg and aimed her knee at his head with no mercy, striking viciously.
Liu Mang ducked to avoid the knee from Lu Mengyao and, grabbing Lin Jiaojiao's hand, started running towards the stairs with her.
Liu Mang might not be able to confront Lu Mengyao but surely he could outrun her.
"Thinking of running? No way!" Lu Mengyao hastened her pursuit, resolved not to let Liu Mang off easily this time.
Before Liu Mang reached the stairway, two people suddenly charged up and blocked the way.
Seeing who had arrived, Liu Mang's steps halted instantly, and not only did he stop, but he also pulled Lin Jiaojiao back a few steps with him.
Lu Mengyao's footsteps sped up, desperately trying to catch Liu Mang and give him a thorough beating.
But when Liu Mang suddenly halted, suspicions arose again. What trick was he playing?
As Lu Mengyao looked towards the two individuals who had just reached the second floor, the anger on her face diminished somewhat, replaced by a few strands of wariness.
One of the newcomers was a short, elderly man in his sixties, dressed in a gray-blue long gown and wearing sunglasses, continuously playing with a pair of walnuts in his hand.
The other person was in his early thirties, of average height, with a forgettable face, and wore a very ordinary blue t-shirt and trousers.
Lu Mengyao now understood why Liu Mang had suddenly stopped, as she sensed a dangerous aura emanating from those two men.
From those two people, especially from the old man, there was a strong stench of blood.
This scent was one Lu Mengyao had only ever encountered on a serial killer before.
It was that sort of nauseating smell that seeped out from the bones and could never be washed away.
These two individuals, were definitely not ordinary.
After blocking Liu Mang and Lin Jiaojiao's way, the old man said indifferently, "Miss Lin, we have finally found you. Mr. Lin is quite worried about you running off like this. Come with us, we'll take you back right away."
Lin Jiaojiao subconsciously moved a little closer to Liu Mang, half-hiding behind him, and said to the men, "You're not my father's people; I've never seen you before!"
"Can't fool you, can we? Indeed, we are not Mr. Lin's people. The one who sent us for Miss Lin is not Mr. Lin either. However, it'd be best if you cooperate, Miss Lin. Otherwise, I won't mind getting rough to take you away."
As the old man spoke, he let out a sinister laugh, his gaze sweeping towards Liu Mang, a cold gleam bursting forth from his eyes, "This is none of your business, step aside."
"What if I don't leave!" Liu Mang shielded Lin Jiaojiao behind him, feeling it was still not safe enough, he pushed her further behind him, closer to Lu Mengyao's side.
With one hand hidden behind him, Liu Mang vigorously waved towards Lu Mengyao and Lin Jiaojiao, signaling them to quickly use the second floor's fire escape to leave.
The two men who had suddenly appeared were tough customers, and Liu Mang didn't know if he could handle them. So for now, it was safer for Lu Mengyao to take Lin Jiaojiao away first.
Lu Mengyao understood Liu Mang's intention, but she had no plans to run away. As a police officer, she would not allow herself to do so.
Instead of fleeing, Lu Mengyao, with one hand on the grip of her gun, pointed the other towards the old man and the man in blue, and sternly admonished, "Who are you people, to have such audacity to attempt a public kidnapping of a young girl!"
The man in blue locked his sight on Lu Mengyao, deliberately looked over her attractive figure, licked the corner of his mouth, and said with a sinister smile, "Not bad looking, eh? A spicy figure I quite like."
Lu Mengyao, seeing that not only had she failed to intimidate them, but one of them was even making advances on her, immediately drew her service pistol, aiming it at the man in blue's head, "Put your hands up immediately!"
Despite facing the barrel of a gun, the man in blue remained unafraid, laughing, "Spicy, I like it. I really like your kind."
Lu Mengyao, so furious she was shaking, said sharply, "Shut your mouth, or I'll shoot!"
The safety was off, and Lu Mengyao's finger was on the trigger, ready to pull it if she chose to.
The old man beside the man in blue suddenly moved, flicking a walnut from his hand, and striking Lu Mengyao's gun.
The walnut made a piercing sound as it flew through the air, hitting the barrel of Lu Mengyao's service pistol dead-on, bending it severely.
The enormous force transferred from the gun to Lu Mengyao's hand, almost causing her to lose her grip and let the gun fly out of her hand.
"Take her and run!" Liu Mang shouted, suddenly charging towards the old man with a fierce punch.
After seeing her deformed pistol, Lu Mengyao shuddered in fear and hurriedly grabbed Lin Jiaojiao, running towards the fire escape on the second floor.
The man in blue, seeing Lu Mengyao and Lin Jiaojiao attempting to run, tried to pursue. Liu Mang threw out a kick at him, which he quickly dodged. But the man still flicked something at Lu Mengyao, striking her right on the buttocks.
