Chapter 141: I Am, So What?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yu Shijin had maintained such a low profile for so many years, but had recently been popping up all over in Green City.

The chiefs of all the other departments knew who he was.

Likewise, the subdivision chief didn't dare to offend him in any way.

Under Anxien's disbelieving eyes, she was once again arrested and dragged inside.

Angie had clearly noticed this.

She kept looking to and fro Yu Shijin and Su Huiqing, as an astonished light appeared in her eyes.

Not many people could make Anxien suffer in this manner.

The pager which she had taken out earlier beeped.

She lowered her gaze and saw a new message: Angie, why did you provoke Anxien even though I told you not to? Let this be a lesson to you!

Angie's eyes frosted over. She should have known these people would choose not to rescue her.

In such a moment, those so-called relatives of hers could not even compare to these people standing in front of her. Folks whom she had just met.

Taking out a cigarette from her pocket, she calmly lit it.

The end of her cigarette butt glowed.

But before she could take a puff, it was snatched away by someone.

With one hand still in her pocket, Su Huiqing was now holding the cigarette that had been between Angie's lips. Her face was slightly tilted and she looked very cold.

Angie stared at her in shock.

Su Huiqing tossed the cigarette to the ground and stamped it out. She said nonchalantly, "Smoking is bad for your health."

Only Angie, who stood the closest to her, could see the profound chilliness in the depths of those eyes.

Angie was stunned.

Before she could react, a whole packet of chewing gum was placed in her hands.

Su Huiqing put on her earpiece again and turned to leave. She added casually. "Just eat this whenever you feel like smoking again."

Could eating this really curb her addiction?

Angie felt like laughing.

But she saw that Su Huiqing was serious.

It was like Su Huiqing could probe into the secrets hidden deep within her heart with just one look.

It was a cool, distant face, but somehow, Angie just felt warmed by it.

She subconsciously tightened her fingers around the chewing gum. "Alright."

After instructing the subdivision, Yu Shijin stood by the side, staying out of Su Huiqing's way.

Chief detective, who had followed Yu Shijin here, was somewhat shocked when he saw Su Huiqing give Angie the chewing gum. A chill crossed his heart, and he turned to look at Yu Shijin.

But Yu Shijin remained impassive.

It was like he already predicted Su Huiqing would give the gum to Angie.

For the first time ever, doubt surfaced in the Chief detective's mind. Boss looked so harsh and cold when he boarded the car... why did he seem like a totally different person now?
