Bai Yi’s golden pupils dilated suddenly.
His face no longer held its usual placid expression.
He lifted his gaze. It was very dark at night, and he couldn’t really see the other party clearly.
But he was all too familiar with that nonchalant tone.
Bai Yi gave a slight smile and calmly returned the greeting. “It is my honor to finally meet you.”
The weather was actually quite cold now, especially in the early mornings.
But Bai Yi was still dressed in his usual simple white shirt and black pants, making his body look long and lean. It was like he didn’t know what the meaning of cold was.
His baseball cap was pulled very low, while Su Huiqing was also hidden in the shadows.
The two of them were in the same group but had never met in person before.
They had only heard rumors about one another.
Su Huiqing brushed her hair back, a slight smile on her lips. Her eyes held a devilish glint.
It was like she was completely merged with the dark night.
She held a dim white light in her hand.
It emitted a heart-stirring glow.
However, apart from the fox by her feet, no one could see it.
“Captain Bai.” Bai Yi’s subordinate spoke up in a low voice, his expression grim. “Those people have escaped.”
Their surveillance could no longer detect any trace of them.
He was talking about Su Chu and team.
Bai Yi remained impassive. “Queen Su, do you know how many times you have interfered with my operations?”
Su Huiqing was quietly counting down the time. She knew that by now, Su Chu and team must have already reached the national route.
They would be safe as long as they managed to reach the national route.
She delicately lifted her eyes on hearing Bai Yi’s question.
The wind blew gently by, rustling up the dead leaves by her feet. She replied indifferently, “Tell me.”
“This is the eighth time.” Bai Yi lifted his slender fingers to indicate the number to Su Huiqing.
His golden eyes were exceptionally profound.
Su Huiqing’s face remained unchanging, her expression as cool as ever.
She had committed countless dubious deeds. Bai Yi might have accidentally come across just a few of those.
So, of course, she didn’t care that much.
Even though Bai Yi was the top international police officer, he had also done questionable things.
She reached up and adjusted her hood before turning to leave.
She had stayed behind just to delay Bai Yi. It was not the right time for her now to confront Bai Yi.
But Bai Yi had no intention of letting her go.
With a slight shuffle of his feet, he reached toward Su Huiqing’s hood. His movements were lightning fast.
Su Huiqing didn’t pause and didn’t even turn her head.
As a result of Bai Yi’s fast movement, the cool air whipped up the hair by the side of her face.
Empress Su suddenly jumped up, extending his bloodied claws toward Bai Yi!
No mercy!
Bai Yi’s eyes narrowed. He could already feel the power of those claws despite them being several centimeters away. He immediately drew back his own hand and took a step back.
By the time he looked up again, Su Huiqing was already opening the car door.
A dazzling light shone as the car was boldly driven off right before their eyes.
“Captain Bai, should we give chase?”
Bai Yi touched his cap. Although he had been forced to step back, there was no trace of fear on his face at all. He chuckled. “Chase after her?”
His tone was mocking. His men could clearly detect the ridicule in his words.
They couldn’t understand. “We have a helicopter while she is just driving a car.”
“Once, there were three fighter planes pursuing her. Do you know what happened in the end?” Bai Yi turned his head to ask as he strode off.
“What?” Those mighty generals were curious.
Bai Yi stepped onto the helicopter, a strand of black hair escaping from under his baseball cap. “She tossed them into the ocean.”
—
Several days later in Green City.
“Are you looking for Qingqing?” Inside Su Huiqing’s villa, Yu Xiangyang was drinking from a bottle when he hustled over to Su Chu.
Su Chu took a step back, his face stern. “Is Ms Su here?”
Yu Xiangyang threw the bottle away. “Shall we have a fight?”
Gu Li had been busy training while Qu Yan was busy studying. He didn’t dare to let Su Huiqing thrash him, and so had no one to train with.
As a result, his hands started to itch on seeing a veteran fighter like Su Chu.
It was a pity that Su Chu didn’t take in his question. He was too distracted by the bottle thrown on the floor.
“You… you were drinking this?” Su Chu felt he was already very calm.
Apart from having lost his cool over Su Huiqing’s military firearms…
He never expected to see something else that would make him lose his cool even more!
“Is there a problem?” Yu Xiangyang glanced at the bottle he had just thrown. He raised his brows, feeling somewhat perplexed.
Su Chu took a deep breath as he forced himself to keep his mouth shut.
He didn’t speak.
Those lowered eyes of his were full of shock. Yu Xiangyang might be unaware, but he had seen it very clearly. Yu Xiangyang had been drinking… a priceless basic-level potion!
Su Huiqing was just putting on her jacket as she came down the stairs.
Empress Su followed her with elegant steps.
She accepted a carton of milk from a servant. Straw in mouth and hand in pocket, she looked at Su Chu. “What?”
