Chapter 727: Chapter 729
“… That’s pretty much the whole story, Jiang Yunpeng is utterly ruined, don’t dwell on his affairs anymore. As for Chen Di, let’s just wait and see.”
After Chen Di’s cheap brother-in-law left, at the behest of Chen Qi, the fiery policewoman, Lin Fei sat by Chen Qi’s bed and recounted to her what had happened since he arrived at the Azure Dragon Military District.
Hearing Lin Fei’s account, a distant contemplation flickered in the eyes of Chen Qi, the fiery policewoman.
Initially, Chen Qi’s pretty eyes had flashed a hint of anger at the mention of Jiang Yunpeng’s situation. However, after Lin Fei mentioned that Jiang Liancheng, the Azure Dragon Military District’s commander, personally intervened in the matter, Chen Qi let go of her concerns about Jiang Yunpeng like leaves in the wind.
After all, she was Zhonghai police’s sole female detective who had passed military district training. If it wasn’t for Jiang Yunpeng’s indirect oppression, that inspired her potential, then she couldn’t have learned what she did from Hawk Special Team.
Chen Qi could easily make a phone call to Zhonghai’s police, file a simple report, and it would be enough to bring down Jiang Yunpeng.
In short, Chen Qi, the fiery policewoman, didn’t truly take Jiang Yunpeng’s matters to heart.
Instead, Lin Fei’s mention of Chen Di and his heartfelt words about Jiang Liancheng stirred some significant worries within her.
After a long time, deeply reflecting, Chen Qi let out a soft sigh, “All this time, we thought Di was gentle and frail, which is why Uncle willingly let him pursue a civilian role. We never imagined that we were wrong. When I think about it now, how could a man as stern as Uncle produce a child who is truly weak? Little Di, he has really grown up.”
“You’ve grown up quite a bit too.”
Having rolled in the sheets with Lin Fei many times, though Lin Fei responded casually, the aggressive, dominating glance he threw at her full, proud figure revealed the underlying message in his words. How could Chen Qi, the fiery policewoman, not understand what Lin Fei implied?
But fights were fights, and scolding was scolding.
With Lin Fei’s intentional or unintentional flirtation, the awkwardness between them from not seeing each other for months began to fade, even dissipating entirely.
“Before, you said you agreed to recommend Little Di to join Dragon Soul, were you serious or just playing a prank on him?” As the awkwardness between them faded, Chen Qi gradually recovered the subtle affection she used to have with Lin Fei back in Zhonghai. Thus, her conversation with Lin Fei became much more relaxed.
“Do you want me to recommend him for Dragon Soul?”
“No way!” Although Chen Qi, the fiery policewoman, wasn’t clear on the nature and function of Dragon Soul, as someone who had trained with Hawk, she could guess some of Dragon Soul’s functions and nature based on Chen Di’s longing and understanding of Hawk.
Given her blood relationship and concern for Chen Di, Chen Qi naturally didn’t wish for him to truly join Dragon Soul.
Which would increase the risks of the missions.
Even though Chen Qi, the fiery policewoman, didn’t oppose Chen Di becoming more manly, her heart preferred him to stay ordinary and weak for the sake of his safety and health.
“If it were a few years ago, maybe I would actually consider recommending him to join Dragon Soul. Now, even if one day he truly qualifies to pass Dragon Soul’s selection, I wouldn’t recommend him to join.”
Regarding what Chen Qi, the fiery policewoman, had in her heart, Lin Fei could probably guess a bit. So, Lin Fei decided to be honest with her.
When Chen Di had been in Chen Qi’s hospital room previously, Lin Fei wasn’t actually completely teasing Chen Di; he simply never intended to recommend Chen Di for Dragon Soul.
This isn’t about whether Chen Di is qualified enough or whether he meets the criteria to join Dragon Soul.
Lin Fei would not recommend Chen Di to join Dragon Soul!
The reason is not with Chen Di but lies with Lin Fei!
When Lin Fei retired from Dragon Soul, apart from being disheartened by the death of Xiao Hu, there was also a change in the ethos of Dragon Soul.
To put it bluntly, there were people in Dragon Soul whom Lin Fei did not respect.
Now it’s safe to say they are, in a way, his adversaries.
To be concise, Lin Fei now has enemies within Dragon Soul, and these enemies are part of the absolute management within the organization.
Thus, if Lin Fei were to recommend Chen Di to join Dragon Soul now, it would not be helping him, but harming him!
After all, Chen Di is also Lin Fei’s brother-in-law.
Out of respect for the formidable policewoman, Chen Qi, Lin Fei obviously would not and could not harm Chen Di!
Therefore, no matter what, Lin Fei would never recommend Chen Di to join Dragon Soul!
“I just fear that in the future, if he really insists on joining Dragon Soul, it might be difficult for you,” Although Lin Fei hadn’t explained much to her, Chen Qi, the formidable policewoman, could guess that Lin Fei must have his reasons, from his expression and her understanding of his nature.
Hence, the woman did not ask further. However, considering Chen Di’s character, Chen Qi couldn’t help but worry.
“When that time comes, a broader stage awaits him. As long as he’s willing, the world is vast, there are plenty of places for him to showcase his abilities.”
Lin Fei clearly didn’t take the formidable policewoman Chen Qi’s worries too seriously.
After all, compared to how he was several years ago when he left Dragon Soul alone and forlorn, Lin Fei had changed drastically!
The stage set by Hell’s Judgement was far greater than the confines of Dragon Soul, which was limited to a single country!
If Chen Di really hones his skills in the future, Lin Fei wouldn’t mind bringing Chen Di into Hell’s Judgement. After all, compared to being under someone else’s thumb in Dragon Soul, as long as Chen Di is capable, there are plenty of opportunities for him to demonstrate his abilities within Hell’s Judgement.
Moreover, by joining Hell’s Judgement, Lin Fei could ensure the safety of Chen Di, his brother-in-law, to the greatest extent.
Based on this, Lin Fei’s previous promise to Chen Di, to recommend him for Dragon Soul, wasn’t complete deception.
“That’s enough. You’ve just woken up, don’t overthink things. Considering your current physical condition, it’s not suitable for you to think too much.” Seeing Chen Di’s slightly knit brows and the worry visible in her beautiful eyes, and taking into account the woman’s physical condition, Lin Fei couldn’t help but speak softly to comfort her.
Then, without further explanation, Lin Fei lifted the quilt of Chen Qi, the formidable policewoman, and while flexing his wrists, spoke to her, “The doctor said you have a severe muscle strain. To help you recover sooner, I think it’s necessary to help you move your muscles and joints. Come on, take off your clothes.”
As he spoke, without waiting for Chen Qi, the formidable policewoman, to react, Lin Fei reached out, intending to help her undress…
