With a strong backer, Brother Ao was naturally incredibly arrogant. He waved his hand grandly and roared,
"Come back! Useless mongrel!"
The Hellhound whimpered and disappeared from everyone's sight.
The private room suddenly felt spacious, and Duan Chen, who had been blocked by its massive body, was exposed to everyone's view.
"Sister Lian, it's him, it's this guy!"
Brother Ao glared fiercely, like a wronged bride complaining to her mother, pointing at Duan Chen and laughing wildly.
"You're about to die, you scoundrel. Now, get down on your knees and kowtow twice. I'll leave you a complete corpse!"
Jia Yunlian's fierce eyes swept over, and a terrifying pressure bore down on him. Her leather whip rose, about to fall on Duan Chen's head—
Duan Chen looked up, their eyes meeting.
Jia Yunlian's pupils suddenly constricted, and then, surprisingly, she turned ecstatic.
"Duan Chen~~~"
She exclaimed, her voice involuntarily tightening.
The whip, which had been dancing in the air, suddenly swerved sideways and, with a flick of her wrist, lashed onto Brother Ao.
"Aow!!" Brother Ao shrieked in pain and stumbled back three steps.
Did she hit the wrong person?
The subordinates were stunned, forgetting to even breathe.
Wu Suowei and Mi Xueer were also surprised, watching as Jia Yunlian, beaming with joy, trotted over.
"Duan Chen, what wind blew you here! Do you have to handle small matters like cracking down on pornography and illegal publications? The Spirit Hunter Guild is getting too much!"
"You can search anywhere here; you absolutely won't find any illegal or disciplinary violations! If you dislike someone, take them back to the bureau for interrogation; it'll at least add to your performance!"
"Hehehe, let's grab a meal together after work later?"
Jia Yunlian's expression was coy and shy, a complete transformation from her previous demeanor!
Could the formidable Jia Yunlian, who everyone feared, actually show such an expression?
Brother Ao and his subordinates stared, mouths agape, wide enough to swallow an egg.
Duan Chen glanced at Brother Ao, who was bent over in pain, and said nonchalantly,
"I'm not here for work today. I was just passing by and got stopped by some of your lackeys. Played with a dog for a bit."
Jia Yunlian's smile faltered. The moment she turned around, her expression changed instantly, her eyes like two sharp blades slicing towards them.
"!!!"
Brother Ao immediately broke out in a cold sweat, his spine chilled, and his legs went weak, causing him to collapse to the ground.
"How do I usually teach you guys? Damn it, you dare cause trouble in my KTV? Who gave you the guts to act so presumptuously!"
*Crack!*
The whip whistled through the air and struck Brother Ao, leaving a shocking bloody gash.
"Ah!!"
Brother Ao wailed, while his subordinates huddled on the ground, too terrified to step forward.
"Hehehe..." Wu Suowei couldn't help but chuckle again, leaning against the table and munching on sunflower seeds.
Mi Xueer was too shocked to speak, her large eyes filled with bewilderment.
This woman hadn't been like this just moments ago! How could she change so quickly...
Jia Yunlian stomped her high heel onto Brother Ao's backside and twisted it fiercely. "Still not going to kowtow to your Grandfather Duan and admit your guilt!!"
"Save it, I don't need a grandson." Duan Chen shook his head.
Jia Yunlian increased the pressure with her heel, and Brother Ao, teeth gritted in pain, let out a sob and yelled,
"Grandpa Duan, I was wrong! Your grandson will never dare again!"
"Don't apologize to me, the person you should apologize to is there." Duan Chen pointed to Mi Xueer, who was shrinking in the corner.
Brother Ao, with no other choice, turned and slapped himself across the face several times, muttering,
"I was wrong, Granny, please be merciful and spare me!"
Mi Xueer had never witnessed such a scene. She covered her mouth, her heart pounding out of her chest.
Seeing her remain silent, Brother Ao slapped himself a few more times, his cheeks already swollen like steamed buns.
Mi Xueer mustered her courage, cleared her throat, and said,
"You, you guys like to take off your clothes, right? Then take them all off, and I'll forgive you."
Duan Chen raised an eyebrow, looking at the young girl with newfound respect.
Brother Ao and his subordinates dared not refuse. One by one, they stripped off their shirts, leaving only their underwear, hugging themselves and standing with their heads bowed by the wall.
"Duan Chen, take these people with you and interrogate them thoroughly." Jia Yunlian walked up to Duan Chen in her high heels.
"Please let us go, the detention center... it's not a place for ordinary people."
"Yeah, yeah, Agent brother, we'll never dare again."
The subordinates cried and begged for mercy, while Brother Ao, covering his face, dared not speak.
Duan Chen saw that Mi Xueer was no longer dwelling on the matter, and he saw no need to press the issue further.
"Get lost. If there's a situation like this again, it'll be ten years to start with."
"Thank you for your mercy, Grandpa Duan!!"
A group of men in their underwear scurried away sheepishly.
As they left, Brother Ao secretly shot Duan Chen a resentful glance.
A gentleman's revenge is never too late.
He would remember this debt.
How could Brother Ao's petty thoughts escape Duan Chen's mind-reading ability?
But he couldn't be bothered. After all, as a high-level agent, Duan Chen didn't pay attention to such small fries.
He walked towards Mi Xueer by the wall and offered her a gentlemanly hand.
"Child, can you still stand?"
Mi Xueer's cheeks flushed slightly. Shyly, she extended her delicate hand, used his strength to stand up, and straightened her school uniform.
"I, I'm 17, not a child anymore..." Mi Xueer mumbled softly.
His hand was so big, so warm, so strong.
Looking at Duan Chen up close, Mi Xueer's heart couldn't help but race, and she hesitated to meet his eyes.
Seeing this, Jia Yunlian's eyes blazed with jealousy. Unwilling to be outdone, she sidled up and said,
"Duan Chen, I just had someone get me some good cigarettes. Come to my office and try some?"
As she spoke, Jia Yunlian subtly tugged at her short leather skirt, her bare, milky-white thighs quite eye-catching.
Duan Chen glanced at her, understanding her subtle intentions.
"I appreciate the offer, but it's not appropriate for public officials to accept."
Jia Yunlian looked a bit disappointed, regretfully watching Duan Chen and murmuring, "This isn't bribery, I genuinely wanted to give it to you..."
"Actually, I have something that requires your cooperation." As soon as Duan Chen finished speaking, Jia Yunlian's large eyes flashed.
"You name it, and I'll cooperate fully!"
"There are many people here at your KTV. Help me find a man. He has two characteristics: he likes to eat raw octopuses, and he has a scar on his chin."
Jia Yunlian said seriously, "No problem, I'll secretly pass down the order right away."
Seeing Jia Yunlian's affections for Duan Chen at a glance, Mi Xueer, standing nearby, suddenly felt a pang of loss.
She looked at Jia Yunlian's impressively large bust, then at her own flat chest; she touched her unadorned face, then looked at Jia Yunlian's exquisite makeup; she gazed at her sexy leather skirt and alluring S-curve, then at her own school uniform...
Suddenly, she felt a little sad.
"You're still young, and the future holds countless possibilities for you." Duan Chen smiled as if he had seen through her thoughts.
His smile was so free and easy, so dashing, deeply imprinted in the young girl's eyes.
Duan Chen glanced at his watch—17:50.
He remembered his appointment with "＊Mars Fish Lu＊" tonight.
It was an appointment worth six million.
As a gentleman, he couldn't be late.
"I have something to do, I'll be going now," he said to the temporary worker Wu Suowei.
"Um, Agent brother..." Mi Xueer, seeing him about to leave, clutched her phone tightly and mustered her courage to step forward.
