Chapter 300: Tang Ziyi teasing Cai Ning
10 hostages, 5 terrorists. Yet 15 bodies.
Yang Qingyue uttered those words. Ling Qingyu and Tang Ziyi heard them and exchanged wry glances.
Now they understood where the problem came from. Country R was indeed similar to their past worlds' Russia. Their tactics and unyielding will against not negotiating with terrorists—even Tang Ziyi had to give in because they indeed stuck to their core thoughts.
"Please don't compare them with us." Tang Ziyi remedied. "It's because of the restrictions I impose on them so that the match resembles a real battlefield scenario without additional support in equipment and behind-the-scene operators."
Yang Qingyue and Cai Ning nodded and sighed in relief. Well, it was true they made a preliminary conclusion without considering the restraints Ling Qingyu's guards adhered to.
Elements of surprise, speed and shock or violence of action were gone since the beginning of the match. It was no wonder, the guards soon became more militaristic.
If the game restarted without limitations, Yang Qingyue and Cai Ning calculated their defeat would be within seconds. Their eyes brightened and felt in the coming days this new special unit would declare its name throughout the world.
Ling Qingyu almost choked after her subordinates were compared to the infamous Country R. Please, they were never the same.
So, the only trouble was gone. The group fell silent until footsteps appeared. Su Ruomei and Jiang Yu came in.
"Yo, I thought Sister Su and Sister Jiang were always busy." Ling Qingyu joked.
"A few hours of free time for our leisure time. At least, it's worth it to see our prestigious President's deception." Su Ruomei also fought back.
"Ahem…It's called Soldiers are never afraid of deceit." Ling Qingyu rebutted. "And what's the matter with your shaking behavior, Jiang Yu?"
Jiang Yu snickered, putting her head behind Su Ruomei's back before changing to a stiff expression and replied. "I was just sneezing."
Su Ruomei was helpless against this junior sister and stepped toward Yang Qingyue. "It seems we have come to an agreement. I'll be working under you, Sister Yang."
Now that the real Special unit was going to be established under Chief Yang, despite in name, Su Ruomei greeted her supervisor. Although the two had contacted each other during the auction's night for security measures, the meeting this time was more official.
"I'm happy to see you taking charge." Yang Qingyue shook hands with Su Ruomei and turned her head toward Jiang Yu. "I presume Sister Jiang will be your deputy."
"Yes." Su Ruomei nodded.
Ling Qingyu and Tang Ziyi didn't disturb and stayed aside. Cai Ning was happy to see her childhood friend gaining influence, power, and now soldiers, even if the unit didn't belong to Yang Qingyue clearly.
However, through several interactions with Ling Qingyu and Tang Ziyi, combined with her understanding and past experiences, Cai Ning had no worries. They brought only benefits.
On the other hand, Yang Qingyue was extremely motivated inside. Even though through her cutting off corroded flesh with sharp knife and violent measures, she had controlled City N department and set up high prestige, the effect outside the city was still minimal when the central government's attention began to wane.
She had jurisdiction over the prefecture and yet she could only control City N firmly. She must be the weakest prefect-level Police Chief.
Yes, she could give orders and rectify other stations within her jurisdiction, but she didn't have strong control. Or she had fewer subordinates under her wing to achieve what she wanted.
Ling Qingyu's subordinates provided an additional complete specialized unit under Yang Qingyue. An asset so that The distance toward her dream was getting closer.
If it weren't for the occasion, Yang Qingyue liked to immediately leave and plan out the details to clean up the police force and regain its former reputation, civilians fancied.
Since the time had come for lunch, Ling Qingyu brought the group to her manor through a small electric car.
Especially three of whom, who participated in high-intensity exercise. Their stomachs already urged for food. However, although Ling Qingyu informed Lin Xiao before leaving the eight-story villa, the servants and the cooks had to prepare again.
There would be some time before lunch was ready. As soon as the group arrived, Ling Qingyu took Yang Qingyue to her room, receiving a message to wait a while from Lin Xiao. She was delighted to see no resistance.
The two sticky behavior since leaving the villa didn't draw too much attention but the sweetness exuded from their actions drove the rest insane.
Apart from Tang Ziyi and Cai Ning who knew what was going on, Su Ruomei was puzzled at the closeness and felt something was wrong, whereas Jiang Yu beamed with joy as if she had seen the path.
She had observed Ling Qingyu hugging Yang Qingyue carelessly and envied their connection. Glancing at Su Ruomei who was confused, Jiang Yu leaned over and dragged her away, her arms around Su Ruomei.
She wanted to have some space and time alone with Su Ruomei. These days, her senior sister was always busy with something. So, Su Ruomei smiled helplessly against Jiang Yu's action oblivious to her junior sister's real intention, completely forgetting her suspicion against Ling Qingyu.
Her most innocent junior sister was plotting behind her back. It would be too late to extract, when she realized she had fallen afterward.
The two leaned against each other like a couple, happily chatting various topics, and walking along the corridors. Jiang Yu hopped on and on, her feet dancing on the floor. They didn't forget to greet Tang Ziyi and Cai Ning, left behind the scenes.
The two exchanged glances and shrugged. At least, this one was polite enough to not ignore their existence. Thinking of Ling Qingyu and Yang Qingyue, they had headaches.
"It seems it's just the two of us for now before we eat. Luckily, it's only 20 minutes." Cai Ning said with a wry smile. "Looking at them, I feel like my stomach is full."
"I think it's more like you than me." Tang Ziyi replied.
Cai Ning's heart lumped out of her throat. She had a bad premonition. "Why do I feel more cold and lonely?"
Tang Ziyi leaned down, her face close to Cai Ning's, who didn't dodge Tang Ziyi's provocative action. She whispered, her breath blowing gentle piercing air to the ears. "Need some care. I can be a good pillow."
"How about Sister Xiao?" Cai Ning swallowed, trying to distance herself. Her breath shortened. Her nostril reddened and her eyes widened. Her brain shut down in front of Tang Ziyi's moves. Somehow, her feet planted strongly on the floor.
Seeing the little policewoman's panicked and stumped expression, Tang Ziyi's eyes narrowed as she thought of teasing her.
She stopped her advance as Cai Ning blocked her chest with her palm. Perhaps because she was in a hurry, she touched a firm silky object. Cai Ning looked downward and blushed.
The gentle soft sensation aroused Cai Ning, causing her to instinctively squeeze a few times. The planet deformed into various shapes.
"Woman, you really know how to heighten my interest. You're really not as innocent as you look." Tang Ziyi grinned and touched Cai Ning's wrist.
Poor Cai Ning's lips twitched and she released her grip, flicking away Tang Ziyi hand but to no avail. Although the opponent's grasp wasn't forceful, her escape was still in vain. Nervous yet bewildered. "Do you believe if I said my hand moves on its own?"
"I don't believe." Tang Ziyi said. "It's the subconscious reaction which tells the truth. Tell me, Sister Cai. Are you having weird ideas about me?"
"What about Sister Xiao?" Cai Ning wanted to cry and tried to change the topic. Her eyes drifted around, seeking rescue.
Tang Ziyi's eyes turned strange. Damn! Don't tell her, the young policewoman was attracted to her, she thought. Cai Ning didn't deny or refuse her move. Instead, she was bringing Xiao Yue to the table. Though she was glad to receive another confidante, Tang Ziyi must tread carefully.
What if Xiao Yue or others saw her action? It was just teasing. However, if she desired to drag Cai Ning into the party, Tang Ziyi needed more energy. Lest Xiao Yue chased her with a long machete.
Of course, as a professional teaser, Tang Ziyi never lost momentum. "Well, she's happy to have another company."
Cai Ning: Gosh, what's wrong with the situation all of a sudden?
