Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Yu Minglang has already locked onto the bad guy, wrapping up the operation would only take a moment. Qian is confident in his ability and believes he will definitely be able to rescue Wang Xiaohong and bring her back—of course, during the rescue, it’s not impossible for the criminal to get angry, resulting in Wang Xiaohong losing an arm or getting a little injured.

Qian doesn’t feel she owes Wang Xiaohong anything and is unwilling to take risks for this woman who doesn’t have a good heart, so she decisively refused.

Yu Minglang didn’t make it difficult for her either; after hearing Qian’s refusal, he just said "got it" and then told her to stay safe before hanging up the phone.

What Qian doesn’t know is how much pressure Yu Minglang has on his shoulders at the moment, respecting her wishes.

"Why can’t she come over just once?" complained one woman from a department cooperating with Yu Minglang’s team in the arrest. She is Liu Miao, a psychological expert from the institute who has previously worked with Qian and was bested by Qian both professionally and emotionally.

The person escaped during research at their institute, so she also has to cooperate with Yu Minglang’s arrest operation.

Yu Minglang just glanced at her lightly, "Why don’t you shave your head?"

"That’s my own wish, can you control that?"

"Then whether she wants to come is also her wish; no one has the right to interfere."

"She’s just too selfish! I can’t stand those rich and unkind people with backgrounds, who don’t care about others’ lives. I feel ashamed to have such colleagues." Liu Miao expressed her strong dislike for Qian, which naturally carried into her words.

"Hmm, seeing you, she probably thinks the same." Yu Minglang said unceremoniously, knowing Qian well enough to know she dislikes genuine villains, but has a strong aversion to moral hypocrites.

"How can you talk to me like this?" Liu Miao was greatly stimulated, having always had a good impression of Yu Minglang, she found it hard to accept reality when he married Chen Xiaoqian. Now she wanted to taunt Qian a bit but was ruthlessly rebuffed by Yu Minglang.

"I’m just objectively stating facts. If you care about lives, go save the world. It’s your freedom to save everyone who encounters trouble, but please don’t use your standards to force others."

Liu Miao was brought to tears by Yu Minglang’s rebuke.

Previously, he had been lukewarm to her, not particularly special, but also not confrontational like now. He’s speaking for his wife, and that’s not fair!

"As a psychologist, she’s utterly unethical, seeing death and refusing to save; and you think I’m wrong for saying that?"

"If she’s willing to come, that’s her kindness; if she doesn’t want to come, that’s her rightful choice. You are not qualified to stand on a moral high ground and morally coerce others."

Yu Minglang waved over his men, who immediately gathered around to study the map for rescue strategies.

These words made Liu Miao quite embarrassed; she’s always been known for hatred of evil, but being shamed by the War God in front of so many people, her face was particularly ugly.

A team leader standing next to Yu Minglang elbowed another, "Look, look, the twisted face of that woman is really scary."

Legendary figure one is indeed ruthless.

Liu Miao is considered a genius; barely in her 30s and already in the institute with excellent capabilities, she’s also a female postdoctoral scholar and notably outstanding in appearance, even though she’s a few years older than Yu Minglang, she doesn’t show it with good maintenance.

Apparently, there are many wealthy suitors pursuing her; she’s a star among women.

Yu Minglang is so unreservedly blunt, not caring that she’s a fellow female.

But who told this woman to speak against his beloved wife; it’s her own fault.

Liu Miao angrily stood in place, thinking back to what Yu Minglang said, and then seeing how he ignores her as if she’s air, she felt unjust, walking straight over.

"I still insist on having Chen Xiaoqian, a person designated by the criminal suspect, come here to buy us time to rescue the hostage!"

"Women are so troublesome..." muttered a squad leader softly.

Although Liu Miao makes a stunning first impression, real-life female scientists aren’t encountered often, but you can tell when there’s an issue, this woman is just stubborn and unreasonable, a domineering character that has nothing to do with academic qualifications.

"Give her my phone, let her make the call herself." Yu Minglang waved, not giving Liu Miao a glance.

The likes of this woman daring to challenge his wife will inevitably be knocked back; Yu Minglang doesn’t bother with a second look, he needs to focus on rescuing the hostage.

Liu Miao took the phone without looking at the name on the screen; if she had, she would see a string of annotations.

Slim waist, beauty, dear Qian.

Nobody but Xiaoqiang would put such a long note for his wife.

Yu Minglang seems to be addicted to giving Qian various special affectionate titles, changing them periodically, each more corny than the last.

The call connected.

"Are you Chen Xiaoqian?" Liu Miao asked directly.

Hearing a woman call from Xiaoqiang’s phone, Qian was silent for a second.

Then she heard several voices simultaneously from the other end of the line.

"Sis-in-law! We’re handling a case here!" said Yu Minglang’s companions collectively, they couldn’t just watch as a disagreement arose between the one couple due to an irrelevant individual.

Hearing so many voices in unison from the other side, Qian immediately understood what was going on, found it amusing but suppressed her laughter.

Her husband’s friends are truly adorable.

They deliberately spoke up to prevent any misunderstanding.

"I am Chen Xiaoqian, who are you?"

Liu Miao was on the side talking to Qian, noticing through the corner of her eye that none of the others paid her any attention, feeling imbalanced.

She wanted everyone to see what proper values and positive energy were!

So she pressed the button to put it on speakerphone, ensuring everyone could hear.

"I’m Liu Miao, a researcher from the Psychology Institute. We’ve worked together before, I suppose that makes me your senior, Chen Xiaoqian. The criminal specifically requested to see you, you’d better come over."

"Oh, I remember now; you’re the female postdoc. If you want to schedule a consultation with me on how to save your marriage, please arrange it with my assistant."

After Qian spoke, the room fell silent for several seconds.

A few seconds later, there was a collective burst of laughter from the background.

Liu Miao began with confidence in persuading Qian, but Qian’s opening words made her face red, with embarrassment.

"What nonsense are you talking? Why would I come to you to save my marriage? I, I, I’m still unmarried!"

"Why else would you use my husband’s phone to call me, unless it’s because your high standards for partners led to you being unmarried, causing psychological issues needing treatment? Or maybe you’re married but 80% unhappy, hence why you, dear senior, want to consult me and even hoping I might give you a discount?"

Yu Minglang heard and smirked, letting out an almost inaudible hum.

Once she spoke, the hierarchy was established, coming over to challenge his wife’s domain was like asking for trouble.
