Chapter 30: Instant Surrender

According to Wang Li's current administrative rank, she no longer needs to live in the dormitory with ordinary police officers. She has her own independent single - apartment. Of course, if your family is local and you want to live at home, and there are no major cases, it is allowed by the superiors. Wang Li, who doesn't want to have too much connection with her father, who is the deputy director, in her work, chose to live outside after joining the police force. Now, having moved into the police single - apartment, Wang Li has her own independent living space.

Wang Li's single - apartment is close to the Criminal Police Brigade of the Municipal Bureau. On the way back to her apartment, Xiao Sheng, covering his wounds and bloodstains with the coat still in the car, stopped by a 24 - hour pharmacy. He bought several kinds of Chinese herbal medicines, gauze, and a set of silver needles. Knowing that Xiao Sheng was good at medicine, Wang Li, whose face was still swollen and had bloodstains, had to hide in the car and wait quietly. Fortunately, the Chinese herbal medicines the rustic guy wanted to buy were common plants, and soon he walked out of the pharmacy with brisk steps.

The security of the police apartment is not overly strict. After all, it is close to the Criminal Police Brigade, and all the people living here are members of the Criminal Police Brigade. If a thief dares to commit a crime here in defiance of the situation, he must be quite a character.

It was a little past 2 am, and the lights in the Criminal Police Brigade were still brightly lit. After all, in such a large city as Gangcheng, there are many criminal cases every day. The police officers on the front line have to work in groups to conduct investigations, analyses, and evidence - collection. Staying up late is as common as a daily routine for criminal police officers.

Following the light shining from the Criminal Police Brigade, the black Santana drove straight into the adjacent community. Wang Li lived on the third floor. When Xiao Sheng followed Wang Li into her room, he clearly felt that the usually straightforward woman in front of him had become much more silent. Perhaps it was the first time she had brought a man to her apartment, or maybe it was due to the series of ambiguous actions earlier. This made Wang Li seem a bit reserved. After Xiao Sheng casually closed the door behind him, Wang Li even felt a sense of nervous pressure.

Changing into a pair of slippers, Wang Li rushed into the kitchen. She used the induction cooker to boil water and rummaged through her bedroom to find medical supplies. Xiao Sheng, sitting in the living room, looked around. The room was extremely clean, spotless. It was very feminine. The curtains, sofa, and coffee table were all pink. On the display stand, there were the certificates, awards, and medals Wang Li had received over the years. Although these things might have a bit of exaggeration, they were good enough to satisfy her self - esteem.

While Xiao Sheng was looking around, Wang Li, carrying a basin of hot water and a new towel, walked towards him with small steps and said softly,

"First, wipe the dust off your face. I'll get the alcohol swabs to clean your wounds..." When he was really alone with Wang Li in the room, although Xiao Sheng was still eager, he still maintained some rationality. This kind of thing, having some flirtatious fun was okay, but if he got hot - headed and took direct action, that wasn't the style of Officer Xiao. He enjoyed the flirting and the process. So, while Wang Li was looking for the medicine, Xiao Sheng also busied himself. However, having some random fantasies was not a crime.

Standing in front of the stove, Wang Li wrapped the Chinese herbal medicines Xiao Sheng bought from the pharmacy with gauze as he instructed and soaked them in hot water for a few minutes. Then, carrying the basin of water, Wang Li walked out of the kitchen and saw Xiao Sheng, who was bare - chested and wiping the wounds on his chest. Standing there, Wang Li felt a bit embarrassed, and her face turned a few shades redder.

His strong body, with a sexy wheat - colored complexion, and the most eye - catching were perhaps the criss - cross knife scars and clearly visible bullet marks on his body. As a criminal police officer, Wang Li frowned when she saw this. After putting the basin beside Xiao Sheng, she carefully examined everything in front of her...

"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen such a strong and sexy body?" The words with a bit of teasing made Wang Li a little flustered. Thinking about his skills shown today, Wang Li slowly raised her head and asked in a cold voice,

"Who exactly are you?" Hearing this, Xiao Sheng looked at the way she scanned the scars on his body and replied with a smile,

"A man, a real man through and through!"

"Don't be glib with me. How did you get these knife scars and bullet scars on your body? I'm asking you in the capacity of a criminal police officer now..."

"Hehe, save it, sister. Do you think you can bluff me? Never mind what I did before. Now, I'm the personal bodyguard of Chen Shuyuan, the chairperson of Huaxin. I think you know this identity. As for what I did before, my ID card is here. You can go and check..." Looking at Xiao Sheng's nonchalant and indifferent appearance, Wang Li blurted out,

"You were a hitman, right?"

"Damn, your thoughts are too avant - garde. Hitmen don't have as glorious a career as I had before. Those little rats who can only hide in the dark aren't worthy. Stop guessing. I'll tell you, but you have to keep it a secret for me. I used to be a special forces soldier. Now I'm retired and working for others, doing some physical labor." Hearing Xiao Sheng's explanation, Wang Li stood there, relieved. Only this explanation made sense. Wang Li had a deep - seated favorable impression of soldiers, especially those special forces soldiers on the front line of the motherland's border. Coupled with Xiao Sheng's desperate rescue of her from the gangsters today, when she looked at Xiao Sheng again, there was an indescribable emotion in her eyes. In her opinion, perhaps it was an inexplicable admiration.

"Stop looking. If you look any longer, calluses will grow in your eyes. Staring at an unmarried man like this will make others misunderstand." Wang Li burst out laughing, her lips curving slightly as she replied softly,

"You rascal, who cares! You asked me to soak the Chinese medicine..."

"Sister, this is for you. Apply it to your face while it's hot. Your face is so swollen. Aren't you going to work tomorrow?" Xiao Sheng's words made Wang Li, who was standing there, freeze. Did he buy the Chinese medicine for me?

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up. Squeeze the medicine bag dry and gently apply it to your face. Pay attention to the time. Don't get burned..." Following Xiao Sheng's instructions, Wang Li sat down and gave it a try. But the water that had just boiled was extremely hot. She tried several times but couldn't squeeze it dry. Xiao Sheng, sitting next to her, mumbled a few words, put down what he was doing, reached out and grabbed the medicine bag. As if not feeling the pain, he squeezed it hard. Then he let Wang Li lie back on the sofa and carefully applied the medicine bag to her face.

Xiao Sheng's movements were very gentle, completely out of proportion to his huge body. His fingertips would occasionally slide across Wang Li's cheek when adjusting the medicine bag, making her face turn crimson. Wang Li, not daring to open her eyes, bit her lips tightly. Her appearance gave Xiao Sheng an unprecedented sense of temptation. Wang Li, who hadn't changed her clothes yet, still had half of her breast exposed, her stockings were mostly torn, and with her head lying back on the sofa, her proud breasts were clearly visible from Xiao Sheng's angle. With a slightly abnormal look in his eyes, Xiao Sheng suppressed his impulse, licked his lips, and said softly to Wang Li, afraid that he might lose control,

"Sister, could you change your clothes before coming out? Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll really push you down..."
