"Your sister-in-law? Who is your brother? Captain Yang's sister-in-law? And who is Captain Yang's brother?" Qiu Lingshan was left dizzy by Wei Zhao's roundabout talk.
"I call Yang Huaijun Brother Jun." Wei Zhao said with a smile.
"You call him Brother Jun..." Qiu Lingshan suddenly understood what Wei Zhao had meant before. He called Captain Yang Brother Jun, so was Captain Yang not his brother? Then was he not Captain Yang's younger brother?
Qiu Lingshan's face flushed red in an instant. "Are you asking for trouble? Believe it or not, I will kick you right out of the car?"
Qiu Lingshan had retired from the special forces, and no one had ever dared to tease her like this. Wei Zhao was the first, and it was not even the first time. This left her burning with anger. Was this kid sent from heaven just to oppose her on purpose?
"Ms. Song, I am only telling the truth. What goes on between Brother Jun and me can only be told to one of our own, so if you want to know, take your pick. If not, then drive your car properly." Wei Zhao was really only joking, hoping to shut Qiu Lingshan up for good. The more she asked, the harder it would be to avoid a slip, and he had no wish to continue on this topic.
"If you won't tell, then don't. No need for so many excuses." Qiu Lingshan snorted and kept driving. By now the car was approaching the woods ahead, and once at the foot of the mountain, it could go no farther.
At the foot of the mountain, the police had put up a cordon, and several officers on duty were holding their post in a temporary shelter. Seeing Qiu Lingshan's car approach, they hurried out.
Qiu Lingshan parked the car at the foot of the mountain and got out together with Wei Zhao.
"Captain Song!" An officer ran over, saluted, and spoke to Qiu Lingshan.
"Anything to report?" Qiu Lingshan asked.
"No," the officer shook his head. "No one has gone up the mountain from here, and no one has come down."
"Good. Get back to work. I will go up and take a look." Qiu Lingshan held out little hope.
"Captain Song, you are going up alone?" The officer glanced at Wei Zhao in surprise... Could this be Captain Song's legendary boyfriend, the one who could not wait in the hospital, that one?
Well, the young man looked decent enough, and sturdy too... But Captain Song going up the mountain with him, what was that about? The robbers were still up there, after all. This was hardly a good place for romance.
"Wei Zhao and I are going up together." Qiu Lingshan said, pointing at Wei Zhao.
Sure enough. The officer recalled that Qiu Lingshan's rumored boyfriend seemed to be named Wei Zhao. It looked like this man really was Captain Song's legendary boyfriend. But what on earth were they going up the mountain for at a time like this?
"Well... Captain Song, be careful. Do you want a few of our men to follow behind you?" The officer was uneasy. Though Qiu Lingshan was deputy captain, she was still a woman.
"No need." Qiu Lingshan would never allow anyone to follow. Since Wei Zhao had said only the two of them would go up, bringing others would only show weakness before him.
Seeing Qiu Lingshan insist, the officer could only step aside and watch her and Wei Zhao head up the mountain.
"Your people in the force seem to care about you." Wei Zhao was rather surprised. "Looks like you command quite some respect."
"What did you expect?" Qiu Lingshan rolled her eyes and glared at Wei Zhao. "I am the women's freestyle combat champion of the whole provincial police system."
As she said this, Qiu Lingshan proudly thrust out her chest a little. It was an honor worth boasting about.
"Heh, you are first in other areas too." Wei Zhao said with a wicked grin, eyeing her proud figure.
"Hey? Wei Zhao, do you want to die?" Qiu Lingshan caught his gaze and that ill-intentioned smile. How could she not know what he meant?
