Chapter 3

Zhou Yaping is twenty-five years old. As a police officer and the captain of the criminal investigation team, she feels immense work pressure, but even more so, the pressure of life. The reason is that her mother has repeatedly urged her to find a boyfriend, constantly nagging in her ear, making Zhou Yaping extremely annoyed. Her mother always says that once a woman passes twenty-five, she has already missed the best golden period, and it will be harder to find a good match later. She insists that Zhou Yaping must resolve her marriage issues by the age of twenty-five.

Unable to resist her mother's nagging, Zhou Yaping has already gone on over ten blind dates, all of which ended in failure. There were many reasons for the failures, but today's failure was due to an unexpected disaster.

While Zhou Yaping was drinking coffee and chatting about life with the successful man wearing wire-rimmed glasses, feeling that this time it might be a successful blind date, suddenly, the glass of the private room shattered. A black object flew in, heading straight for the successful man. With a thud, the black object hit the successful man, who immediately let out a wolf-like howl of pain...

Inside the glass room, Chen Siyao looked at Chen Mo with a shocked expression. It was almost unbelievable. Although she wasn't very clear about the capabilities of the two bodyguards beside Zhao Hongjun, given the power of Zhao Hongjun's family, the bodyguards he hired were definitely very skilled, mostly retired special forces soldiers. Yet, they were defeated by Chen Mo. The visual impact just now made Chen Siyao feel as if she were in a dream.

It was hard to imagine that Chen Mo's seemingly weak and scholarly body could hide such powerful strength. Chen Siyao suddenly felt that Chen Mo was becoming more and more mysterious. However, this was not enough to pique her curiosity; it only changed her impression of Chen Mo. Her previous disdain, contempt, and scorn had turned into respect, and she no longer felt impatient with him.

Zhao Hongjun's face was indescribable. He felt his face burning hot, as if he had been slapped. It was truly humiliating that his two top-notch bodyguards were defeated one after another by this unknown young man. Others might not know the terror of Zhao Long and Zhao Hu, but he knew them well.

Unable to help it, his gaze towards Chen Mo was filled with fear. At this moment, he felt like he was in a difficult situation. If he left, it would give Chen Siyao a very bad impression. If he stayed and continued to tangle with Chen Mo, the consequences could be unimaginable.

"Good, very good, young man, you are quite surprising, but..." Zhao Hongjun tried to calm himself down, speaking vaguely to buy time while quickly thinking about how to resolve the awkward situation.

Seeing that Chen Siyao remained silent, sitting there with a shocked look, her gaze shifting away when it met his, and then returning with a mix of anger and sharpness, Chen Mo thought to himself that she was indeed a domineering and proud woman. However, he did not confront her directly but instead smiled and winked at her.

In Zhao Hongjun's eyes, their actions were typical flirtation. "Damn it, Chen Siyao, you bitch, I've been chasing you for three years, and you ignored me. Today, you're flirting with this poor boy. I swear, I won't let him off, you can only be my woman, Zhao Hongjun's woman!"

The atmosphere in the glass room was extremely strange. "Who, who is fighting here?" A furious and delicate voice broke the silence. Chen Mo and the others heard the voice and followed it to see a woman in a light yellow dress leading someone into the room. The person she was leading was none other than Zhao Hu, who had been thrown out by Chen Mo.

At this moment, Zhao Hu looked extremely pitiful, with bloodstains on his head, arms, chest, and legs. The sight of his large, muscular body being led by a seemingly delicate woman was bizarre, but that was the reality.

"You, you, and you!" Zhou Yaping, feeling her carefully planned blind date disrupted, was in a terrible mood. She extended her delicate hand, pointing at the four people in the room, and said sternly, "All of you, come with me to the police station!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately realized Zhou Yaping's identity as a police officer.

Chen Mo looked at Zhou Yaping, who seemed like a little tyrannosaurus, and was even more surprised to see her single-handedly leading the semi-conscious Zhao Hu. How much strength must she have? She looked like a lady, but turned out to be a policewoman.

At this moment, the manager of the coffee shop, along with several security guards, quickly arrived. Such a serious fight and the destruction of the shop's property during his shift would definitely get him scolded by the boss. Moreover, such an incident would scare away customers, and many might not dare to come back.

When the manager arrived, he just heard Zhou Yaping's last words. He immediately stood beside her with the security guards and said, with a pained expression, "Officer, you must uphold justice for us. They have ruined our shop..."

"Don't worry, I am Captain Zhou Yaping of the High-tech Zone Public Security Bureau's Criminal Investigation Team. Here is my ID. I need your people to cooperate and take these individuals to the police station. Also, someone outside has fainted and needs to be taken to the hospital immediately. Please handle this for me!" Zhou Yaping, with a cold face, took out her ID from her shoulder bag and showed it to the manager. After confirming her identity, the manager became even more cautious and respectful.

"Rest assured, Officer Zhou, we will handle it!" The manager said, calling two waiters to help the successful man who was on the blind date with Zhou Yaping, and took him to the hospital. On this side, he called four security guards to take Chen Mo and his group to the police station.

"Back off!" Zhao Hongjun, seething with anger, saw a security guard dare to grab his sleeve and, without hesitation, slapped him, stunning the guard!

"Support him!" Zhou Yaping, seeing someone dare to resist and even hit someone in front of her, was even more furious. She directly pushed Zhao Hu into the manager's arms and rushed forward like a bolt of lightning.

"Slap!" Zhou Yaping raised her hand and slapped Zhao Hongjun, simultaneously using a small grappling technique to subdue him. During this process, Zhao Long, who had been injured while provoking Chen Mo, had no chance to stop Zhou Yaping and could only watch helplessly as his boss was captured.

"I hate you immoral and arrogant people the most. This is a public place. I am now arresting you for disturbing public order!" Zhou Yaping sternly said to Zhao Hongjun, her gaze sweeping over Chen Mo, Chen Siyao, and Zhao Long.
