Chapter 24 - Chapter 20: Bai Xiaoyue Catches Thieves

During breakfast, Xia Wenxue kept a cold face, not glancing at Ren Feng, especially when she heard Ren Feng's voice requesting more, which made her fuming.

"Mr. Yun, this porridge tastes great, one more bowl please."

"Mr. Yun, this egg is nice, I'll have another one."

"Mr. Yun, are there any more doughsticks?"

"Uh, Mr. Yun, why are you looking at me like that? I'm full, I'm done eating."

Ren Feng chuckled as he spoke, then looked towards Xia Wenxue and saw she had already stood up and was heading outside.

Sharing a table with Ren Feng probably filled her with anger.

"Xue'xue, be careful on the way."

Ren Feng shouted from behind, and Xia Wenxue nearly stumbled, turning back to glare at Ren Feng.

After finishing the meal, Mr. Yun tidied up, and Ren Feng strolled out of the villa leisurely.

Xia Wenxue's villa was in the New District, an area with a nice environment and only about twenty minutes from Wenfeng Road.

Walking some way from the villa area, you reach Jiangnan City's most famous commercial street — Jade Bay Street, named for the river alongside it.

The economy in Jiangnan is extremely developed, with several commercial streets throughout the city, of which Jade Bay Street is the busiest.

He strolled onto the street, where there weren't too many people yet, as it was still morning.

"Not bad, that girl is pretty." Ren Feng watched as a few girls ahead walked past.

"This one is good too, pity her legs are a bit thick."

While Ren Feng was wandering, he suddenly noticed a familiar figure ahead.

Bai Xiaoyue!

What's this girl up to?

Ren Feng's curiosity was piqued; today, Bai Xiaoyue wasn't in her police uniform but dressed casually with a ponytail, looking youthful and vibrant.

Moreover, from behind, Bai Xiaoyue's cute figure and her straight, beautiful legs were enough to stir one's imagination.

Quietly, Ren Feng followed, realizing at this moment that Bai Xiaoyue seemed to be tailing someone—a shifty-looking man, unaware of being followed.

Bai Xiaoyue was stealthily trailing him, but after a corner, she lost sight of him.

At this point, Bai Xiaoyue grew a bit anxious, quickly moving forward, but after another turn, she saw him just turning another corner in the distance.

Bai Xiaoyue hastened her steps; that person was a member of a large thief gang in Jiangnan City, with more than ten consecutive cases, seemingly linked to a child trafficking case, yet their hideout couldn't be located.

The man she was following had been identified by her team after long investigation as a gang member, so Bai Xiaoyue wanted to follow the trail and take down the whole gang!

Ren Feng shook his head, thinking this silly girl didn't even realize she'd been discovered and didn't notice she was being led into a trap?

True, Jade Bay Street is bustling, but it connects to some residential areas with complex alleyways, ideal for thieves.

Moreover, Jade Bay Street has the most red-light districts in all of Jiangnan City.

Ten minutes later, Bai Xiaoyue unwittingly found herself in unfamiliar territory, still trying to catch up to the man, but suddenly he turned back.

Bai Xiaoyue's eyes showed a trace of vigilance.

"Girl, you've been following me for so long, have you fallen in love and want to offer yourself to me?"

The thief's face flashed a lewd expression.

"You're under arrest."

Bai Xiaoyue's expression was extremely cautious, her hand on her belt's handcuffs, ready to step forward and catch him.

"Oh, a cop, huh?"

The thief laughed, showing no fear.

"Brothers, we've got a cop who delivered themselves to us."

With a shout, suddenly, from the surrounding corners, numerous people appeared, instantly surrounding Bai Xiaoyue.

Bai Xiaoyue's heart felt a twinge of foreboding, then she raised her voice, "What do you want to do?"

"What to do? Do you even need to ask? Facing a stunning beauty like you, what do you think we would do?"

A thief laughed heartily, followed by loud laughter from others.

With about thirty people here, what does it matter if Bai Xiaoyue is a cop, are they afraid?

Especially since Bai Xiaoyue was just a female officer, and such a beautiful one at that, she didn't look like she'd have much combat ability.

"You'd better surrender now for more lenient treatment, don't be obstinate." Bai Xiaoyue shouted loudly, though a bit anxious inside; against so many, she might not win.

"Lady cop, come, come catch me, I'll surrender, but you'd have to capture me on the bed." A thief laughed heartily.

"Come and catch me, catch me and I'll let you do whatever you want." Another one chimed in.

"Hmph."

Bai Xiaoyue coldly snorted, quickly formulating a countermeasure.

The thieves had formed a circle, with Bai Xiaoyue surrounded alone in the center.

Bai Xiaoyue was on high alert, and just then she sensed someone approaching from behind, swiftly turned, and kicked out hard with her long leg, knocking him back.

"Haha, Zhao, you're useless, getting kicked back by a girl." Others laughed loudly.

"Let me do it!"

A thief stepped out, with a broad smile, rubbing his hands, suddenly lunging towards Bai Xiaoyue.

Bai Xiaoyue nimbly dodged and then punched back.

At this moment, Ren Feng somehow squeezed into the crowd, saw Bai Xiaoyue fighting with those thieves, his eyes twinkled, and he grinned mischievously.

Ren Feng shouted loudly, which made the thieves fighting Bai Xiaoyue bright-eyed, instantly redirecting their attacks, their hands reaching for her chest.

Bai Xiaoyue was both shocked and angry, her long leg lifted and swept across, knocking them back.

"Haha, you all are incompetent, let me." A thief jumped out, while Bai Xiaoyue's eyes quickly scanned around; that voice sounded awfully like that rascal from yesterday!

Ren Feng shouted again.

Upon hearing this voice, Bai Xiaoyue immediately locked eyes on the shouting Ren Feng, gritting her teeth, rage burning in her eyes: It really was this bastard!

Ren Feng cheekily looked at Bai Xiaoyue in the fray and even waved a hand in greeting.

Hey there, friend at a distance, how are you doing now?

Bastard!

Bai Xiaoyue almost wanted to bite Ren Feng to death, but she had to deal with the thieves surrounding her.
