“I’ll bring you to meet someone.” Sister Ling walked in front and didn’t explain much. She just led the way.

“Be careful.” Feng Jing held Yin Tao’s hand and gave her a reassuring look.

Jiang Xing watched from the side and felt upset. He didn’t know why this man always made him feel annoyed.

“Xiaotao, are you with him because he’s a police officer?”

Turning her head to glance at Jiang Xing, Yin Tao smiled and said, “Why do you ask? Do 1 have to have a reason for who 1 want to be with?”

“No, if you really like police officers, 1 can introduce a few better ones to you. At the very least, they’re younger and more handsome than him!” Jiang Xing knew that Yin Tao didn’t like him, but he wasn’t willing to let Yin Tao be with this annoying man.

“Sure, 1 know a lot of people in the police station. If you can really find someone more handsome than Brother Feng, 1’11 consider you quite capable.”

Yin Tao wasn’t exaggerating at all. Although she didn’t know many police officers, Feng Jing was widely acknowledged as the male idol in everyone’s hearts. Yin Tao didn’t think that there was anyone more outstanding than Feng Jing.

“Young Master Jiang, stop messing around here. Their relationship looks good. It’s useless no matter what you say.”

Sister Ling walked to a dilapidated iron door and looked at Yin Tao and Feng Jing who were holding hands tightly. She said to Yin Tao and Feng Jing with a gentle gaze, “Cherish each other. It’s actually very rare to find a pair like the two of you, so in love and so compatible.”

“That’s enough, Sister Ling. In what ways are they compatible?” Jiang Xing couldn’t help but roll his eyes at Feng Jing. He noticed the big iron door in front of him and asked in surprise, “What is this place? Why is it so remote? If 1 had not known you for many years, 1 would have thought that you had done something illegal.”

“You’ll know when you get in.” Sister Ling unlocked the heavy door with a key, turned on the torchlight function of her cell phone, and walked in.

Feng Jing followed behind Sister Ling, holding Yin Tao’s hand vigilantly.

Jiang Xing walked at the back. The sound of the iron door closing was especially loud, and it seemed especially sinister in this almost completely dark environment.

“This place is actually so big? There’s even a basement?”

Jiang Xing was not the only one who was surprised. Even Feng Jing and Yin Tao were surprised that there was such a large space here.

“Let’s go. Come down with me.” Sister Ling had no intention of explaining and walked straight into the basement.

Feng Jing and Yin Tao followed closely behind. After finally walking down the stairs, the environment in front of them finally became normal.

“Why does this place look like an ordinary residence?” Jiang Xing looked at the decor and furniture around him and felt that this place was no different from his own house.

“It’s just an ordinary residence. My house is too far from the tavern. Sometimes, 1 just live here when I don’t feel like commuting home.”

Sister Ling led them deeper into the basement. “This used to be a bar. 1 had wanted to merge with the tavern after buying it, but 1 really didn’t have the energy. This place is a little remote, so I used the space on the ground as a warehouse and renovated the underground into a residence.”

“Sister Ling, your place is really huge. But aren’t you afraid of living alone?” Yin Tao felt that the underground environment was dark unless the lights were turned on. It was a little scary for a woman to live here.

“The location is so hidden that it’s rare for anyone to discover it. What’s there to be afraid of?” Sister Ling smiled and stopped at the door of a closed room. “Besides, I’m not the only one living here now.”

“Jingjing, someone wants to see you.” Sister Ling knocked on the door. Besides Feng Jing, Yin Tao and Jiang Xing also widened their eyes in disbelief.

Not long after, footsteps came from inside. Soon, the door was opened, and a face that resembled Cheng Yao appeared in front of everyone.

“Young Master Jiang?” Liu Jing was a little surprised when she saw Jiang Xing. However, what made her even more uneasy was the two unfamiliar faces of Feng Jing and Yin Tao.

“Don’t be afraid. We are police from the branch office. We can definitely guarantee your safety.” Feng Jing had already expected Sister Ling to know Liu Jing’s location. However, he never expected Liu Jing to be hiding here. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Sister Ling, didn’t you say that calling the police wouldn’t solve the problem?” Liu Jing relaxed a little after she heard that the person in front of her was a police officer. However, she still looked at Sister Ling with some concern. She seemed very heavy-hearted..
