Chapter 187: The Two Women Meet, Eyes Filled with Jealousy
Around one o'clock in the afternoon, Duan Haoran passed away.
Three days later, on a morning with a gentle autumn breeze and light drizzle, Duan Haoran was buried in a tomb outside the city.
To Xiao Yun's surprise, there were many people who came to pay their respects to Duan Haoran that day. In addition to local leaders like Mayor Shen Tieshan, there were also teachers and students from schools, children from orphanages, and friends of Duan Qingxue such as Zhu Yan Hong and Fang Xiaolu. Later, Ouyang Bing and Nie Xiaoqian joined the funeral procession, which looked like a long dragon from a distance, numbering in the thousands.
Only some members of the Duan family did not attend.
After the funeral concluded, Shen Tieshan approached Xiao Yun, shook his hand, and said, "Xiao Yun, I never expected you to be a descendant of the Duan family. The incident with Duan Group has shaken the highest levels of Huaxia; no one could have anticipated this. Regardless, Duan Haoran was a person worthy of respect. Uh, what are your plans for the future?"
Xiao Yun smiled lightly and replied, "I don't have any plans at the moment; I'll think about it later!"
"Well, if you need any help in the future, just let me know!" Shen Tieshan said.
"Thank you, Mayor Shen!"
As the crowd gradually dispersed, Xiao Yun sat alone in front of Duan Haoran's grave, took out a cigarette, lit it, and smoked silently.
An Yiran had not walked far; she leaned against a nearby pine tree and watched him intently.
Under the gray sky, autumn rain fell like threads in the wind.
"Beast, why are you still sitting here? Be careful not to get drenched!" Upon hearing this term of endearment, it was undoubtedly Ouyang Bing.
Among the women around Xiao Yun, none had ever directly called him "beast" to his face.
Not far away, An Yiran glanced at Ouyang Bing with a slight frown upon hearing the title.
Xiao Yun didn't turn his head and calmly asked, "Sister Bing, how has Feng Xia been lately?"
Feng Xia was a Criminal Police Officer under Ouyang Bing.
Why did he suddenly bring her up at this moment?
Ouyang Bing instinctively recalled the scene in the hospital when Xiao Yun had pressed Feng Xia's hand against her chest due to a curse placed by Xue Rui. A blush crept onto her face as she thought to herself, could it be that he still has feelings for her?
This guy really is quite the romantic.
"She's fine. Uh, why did you think of her?" Ouyang Bing asked coldly, feeling a bit sour inside.
Xiao Yun noticed that her tone was off and naturally sensed her thoughts. He turned his head and said, "Sister Bing, I didn't mean anything by it. I just wanted to ask if you know what kind of relationship Feng Xia has with Zhou Jinian?"
Ouyang Bing was taken aback. Was this guy affected by Duan Haoran's death? Why was he asking such strange questions?
"Zhou Jinian was in the Criminal Investigation Team; their relationship is simple. One is a leader and the other is an ordinary Criminal Police Officer. What's so strange about that?"
"Well then, Sister Bing, if you find Zhou Jinian's body, be sure to notify me so I can come take a look!" Xiao Yun said.
Uh!!!
Ouyang Bing felt dizzy. Currently, the police only knew that Zhou Jinian was missing; how could he boldly conclude that he would be dead?
But...
Ouyang Bing's expression tightened as she asked, "Xiao Yun, do you know something?"
Xiao Yun shook his head and said, "Uh, I can't tell you anything right now. Let's wait until we see his body. For now, let's leave it at that; I just want to sit quietly for a while."
"It's still raining, and you're out here with such a bald head..." Ouyang Bing paused for a moment, then said with concern.
"Ouyang Officer!"
At that moment, a colder voice suddenly interrupted, "Xiao Yun is under my care. You can leave now; there's no need for your feigned concern!"
Then, an umbrella was held over Xiao Yun's head.
The person holding the umbrella was, of course, An Yiran.
—This guy always had a way with women, and they were all stunning!
Ouyang Bing shot a glance at An Yiran, feeling anger rise within him. He questioned, "An Yiran, what do you mean by feigned concern?"
"You know very well," An Yiran replied fiercely. "The Duan Group has been destroyed, and even the respected Grandpa Duan has left this world. Aren't you secretly pleased with how things turned out? I really don't understand why you're here—are you playing the cat mourning the mouse or is it a weasel paying respects to the chicken?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? The Duan Family has been secretly manufacturing drugs; even if they died a thousand times, it wouldn't matter. What's wrong with me following orders to arrest the Duan Family?" Ouyang Bing retorted angrily, his eyes wide open.
An Yiran stood his ground and said, "But you forced the innocent Grandpa Duan to his death!"
"Nonsense! He chose to die himself; it has nothing to do with us detectives!" Ouyang Bing's face turned pale with anger.
"Well then, do you dare to say that again? Just watch how I, An Yiran, will take you down!"
"Hey, bring it on! I want to see what you're capable of!"
This caught Xiao Yun off guard; he didn't expect these two women to start fighting. He jumped up suddenly.
Bang! Bang!
The Second Girl attacked simultaneously, but Xiao Yun quickly moved in between them. Before he could pull them apart, their fists had already struck him, one after the other.
Xiao Yun immediately felt a tightness in his chest and back, pain piercing through him as if his bones were about to shatter. Damn it, these two women really went for it!
"Xiao Yun, what's wrong with you?"
"Beast, you..."
Both women paused, quickly retracting their hands and almost in unison asked what was wrong, regretting that their fists had landed on him.
Puff!
Unable to hold back, Xiao Yun spat out a mouthful onto the ground.
Fortunately, it wasn't blood but last night's dinner.
These two women were indeed serious; to make someone vomit their leftover meal was quite an impressive feat.
"Ah, Xiao Yun, are you okay?" With a gasp, one of the women rushed to his chest, extending her delicate hand like white jade to gently rub his chest, her eyes filled with deep concern.
Hmph! Ouyang Bing watched this unfold with anger and was about to say something when Xiao Yun waved his hand at her and said, "Officer, Sister Yiran is in a bad mood; please forgive her and just leave!"
Ouyang Bing stormed off in anger.
Phew!
Watching her turn away, Xiao Yun let out a long breath and said, "Sister Yiran, I'm fine!"
As he spoke, he reached out to wrap his arm around her slender waist. His hand accidentally brushed against something big, round, and soft, and he couldn't help but curiously squeeze it. Looking over, he realized—
He had actually grabbed hold of her prominent chest...
"Xiao..." An Yiran instantly felt that he had touched her forbidden area. Somehow, her whole body felt weak, almost collapsing into his embrace.
Xiao Yun helped her sit down and said, "Sister Yiran, you shouldn't blame Ouyang Bing anymore. She was just doing her duty; she did nothing wrong. If the Duan Family's drug den isn't destroyed, who knows how many people will be harmed!"
After all, An Yiran had received special training and education in the military; she understood this principle well.
"Xiao Yun, I know that. I just can't help but feel angry when I think about my grandfather's passing and then see Ouyang Bing's arrogant demeanor!" An Yiran replied.
"Yes, I understand your feelings..." Xiao Yun patted her fragrant shoulder.
Suddenly, there was a series of loud footsteps...
Ouyang Bing stomped on the layer of leaves soaked by the autumn rain. She was furious and walked about seventy or eighty meters away before reluctantly glancing back. From a distance, she saw the couple sitting closely together under an umbrella on the ground, which made her even angrier!
A pair of shameless lovers!
Arriving at the entrance of the Tomb, she approached a car, opened the door, and angrily slammed it shut.
Inside the car, Nie Xiaoqian was sitting there and asked, "Sister Bing, where's my brother?"
"Let that beast sit there; after all, he has a beautiful woman with him and is probably enjoying himself!" Ouyang Bing shouted loudly as if venting her frustration while starting the car.
Pfft!
Nie Xiaoqian laughed heartily, her crescent-shaped eyes sparkling as she said, "Sister Bing, you can't really like my brother, can you?"
Ouyang Bing smacked the steering wheel and replied, "Like him? Hmph, even if he were a pig, I wouldn't give him a second glance!"
Uh, what’s wrong with this lady? Why does she sound like she’s on edge?
She could guess that the beautiful woman Sister Bing was talking about must be An Yiran.
Heh, if my brother manages to get both of these fierce-looking beauties by his side, it will definitely be entertaining.
Nie Xiaoqian stole a glance at her and secretly chuckled. Hmph, if you like my brother, just say it directly; why act all tough?
The car sped off like an arrow.
Little did they know, Ouyang Bing had just returned to the Criminal Investigation Team and hadn’t even had a moment to catch her breath when a Criminal Police Officer burst in, panting as he reported that he had just received a call about a body found at the foot of Fuhu Mountain belonging to Zhou Jinian.
Boom!
Ouyang Bing felt as if she had been struck by lightning; her head spun.
Xiao Yun is truly something; how could what he said actually come true? The Pinnacle of Elegance has updated.
