Chapter 1318 - 1332: Peculiar
"An Ran, do you really think that by relying on Mu Xingfeng as the Special Training Captain, you can do whatever you want? Look around, this is the Imperial City. Even if Mu Xingfeng can be transferred here as the Special Training Captain, he can’t interfere with the police handling cases. Who are you trying to impress with this act?"
Mu Xingfeng spent five years with the Nan’an Guard Team, always keeping a low profile. Besides his immediate superior and his teammates, very few knew that he was a descendant of the prestigious Mu Family, one of the three major military families in the Imperial City.
Jia Chenggang, visiting the Imperial City for the first time, was unaware of An Ran’s identity here, and even more oblivious to the significance of the Shen, Mu, and Lin Families in the city.
Leaving that aside, he hadn’t even heard of the Five Young Masters of the Imperial.
Hearing Jia Chenggang’s words, An Ran laughed instead of getting angry. She knew that very few people in Nan’an were aware of Mu Xingfeng’s true identity; otherwise, Jia Chenggang wouldn’t have challenged him at the Nan’an Guard Team after losing the qualification for special training.
But isn’t that even more interesting? She was curious to see how far Jia Chenggang would go for Wang Xia.
"Captain Jia, you really hit the nail on the head. Mu Xingfeng indeed won’t interfere with police investigations, but it’s this officer who trusts me," An Ran said deliberately teasing Jia Chenggang, then turned to Xia Ke. "Captain Xia, if there’s nothing else, I won’t hold you up. We three girls haven’t finished lunch yet; let’s switch to another room and continue eating."
Suppressing a smile, Xia Ke thought to himself that he knew the Shen Family had reunited with their long-lost eldest daughter, but didn’t expect it to be this intriguing.
"Miss An, feel free," Xia Ke said to An Ran, and then signaled to the people behind him, "Pack it up."
The duty manager was too scared to breathe loudly. If he wasn’t mistaken, the first thing Captain Xia did upon entering was to address this young lady as ’eldest miss,’ and then mentioned that Chief Shen had sent him.
In the Imperial City, chiefs aren’t rare, but for him, it’s extraordinary. What kind of background does this young lady have to make a chief send people with just a phone call?
Moreover, as this officer later said, he had seen police handle cases before, where they usually take all involved parties back for investigation, but this time they only took Wang Xia away, while everyone else remained unaffected, showing that she is really not someone to be trifled with.
Hearing An Ran’s comment about changing rooms to continue their meal, the duty manager dared not delay and quickly instructed Xue to get the dishes the guests ordered up again from the kitchen.
Seeing that he was completely ignored, Jia Chenggang clenched his fist with a crackling sound.
In the new private room, the girls sat down again, this time the dishes arrived exceptionally fast, just short of the duty manager personally serving them.
As Xiao Xiao gnawed on the braised ribs that had been brought back, she sighed, "This time we really owe it to Sister Ruonan, otherwise we would have suffered a big loss. That Wang Xia is really vicious, to put so much Mifepristone in that drink. Where on earth did she get so much of it, and even carried it with her?"
An Ran followed with a cold snort, "Do you even need to ask? Didn’t you see how much Jia Chenggang was defending her? He’s not in the Special Training Team. He’s just a small captain in the Nan’an Guard Team, traveling all the way to the Imperial City. I don’t think he came here just for sightseeing."
"Damn, I already found him irritating back in Nan’an. Turns out, he has some shady dealings going on, tsk tsk tsk, preparing so much Mifepristone is truly ruthless. Doesn’t she know that consuming that much Mifepristone could make it hard for her to have kids again?"
