Chapter 660 - 660 656 Zhao Lina Gets Jealous

660: Chapter 656: Zhao Lina Gets Jealous 660: Chapter 656: Zhao Lina Gets Jealous Ye Fan sent the robber flying and turned towards the car door, preparing to help Zhao Lina out of the car when suddenly a soft and warm body threw itself into his arms.

He subconsciously hugged her, thinking it was Zhao Lina, but quickly realized something was amiss.

As he was about to push Shangguan Wuqiu away, Zhao Lina had already gotten out of the car, just in time to see Ye Fan holding Shangguan Wuqiu’s slender waist.

Her pretty face sank even more, cold as frost, she scoffed disdainfully and turned her face away.

Ye Fan clearly saw Zhao Lina’s strong dissatisfaction and felt wronged.

He had originally thought the person in his arms was her, but it wasn’t.

Besides, even if it wasn’t, wouldn’t it be normal for a rescued hostage to throw themselves into his arms in excitement right after being saved?

Was there really a need to be jealous of a stranger?

Thinking this, Ye Fan gently placed his hands on the woman’s shoulders in his embrace and lightly pushed her away, comforting her with, “Miss, don’t be afraid, you’re completely safe now…”

He hadn’t finished speaking when he saw a stunningly beautiful face with tears streaming down, looking pitiful; he couldn’t help but pause and exclaimed in surprise, “Shangguan Wuqiu?

It’s you?”

Shangguan Wuqiu’s emotions calmed down a bit, realizing it was inappropriate to suddenly throw herself into Ye Fan’s arms and cling to him.

She stepped back two paces, pushing down the embarrassment, her eyes brimming with gratitude as she looked at Ye Fan and gratefully said, “Ye Fan, thank you for saving me again.”

“Heh heh, no worries, it’s my duty, I am a police officer, after all,” replied Ye Fan as he recovered, making light of it, “Are you hurt?”

“No,” Shangguan Wuqiu replied as she lightly shook her head.

“That’s good.

I’ll go check on the others.” Ye Fan dared not say more to Shangguan Wuqiu; Zhao Lina had clearly misunderstood already.

With that, he turned and walked towards Zhao Lina.

By then, Zhao Lina had already walked a few meters away.

As he came to Zhao Lina’s side, Ye Fan asked softly with concern, “Lina, are you hurt?

I was so worried just now.”

Zhao Lina glanced at Ye Fan, and seeing the sincere concern on his face, her icy expression softened a bit and said, “I’m not going to die.”

After a pause, she pressed her voice lower and said, “Don’t think I’ll forgive you just because you saved me this time.

No way!”

“Heh heh, let’s not talk about that,” Ye Fan said with a placating smile, “Let me help you with the handcuffs first.”

Saying this, he reached out to grab the handcuffs binding Zhao Lina’s hands.

However, Zhao Lina immediately turned her body to the side, avoiding Ye Fan’s reach, and whispered, “No, your talent for breaking handcuffs bare-handed is a bit too shocking.

Let’s wait for the other officers to open them.

A few minutes won’t make a difference.”

“Alright then, sorry for the inconvenience,” Ye Fan nodded.

Suddenly, Zhao Lina’s voice rose sharply as she coldly said, “Chief Ye, aren’t you going to give the others a call?”

“Right away, Chief Zhao, I’m on it,” Ye Fan replied with an inward wry smile.

After that, Ye Fan took out his phone and contacted the police station, instructing them to come over immediately to take over.

Once the call ended, Ye Fan turned and walked back to the front of the car, assisting the third female hostage out of the car.

This hostage’s mental state was clearly much worse than Zhao Lina and Shangguan Wuqiu.

Although she knew she was rescued, she still trembled in fear, huddling inside the car, too scared to come out.

Ye Fan spent some effort soothing the woman until she finally calmed down a bit and got out of the car.

While Zhao Lina was also taken hostage, after all, her identity was that of a police chief, so she came over to help calm the female hostage’s emotions.

With Zhao Lina’s help in comforting her, Ye Fan was freed from the task he was not good at and was preparing to tie up the five robbers when he suddenly felt a pair of eyes staring at him.

He turned around, walked up to Shangguan Wuqiu, and asked, “Are you scared?”

“Not scared,” Shangguan Wuqiu replied firmly.

At that moment, she had already wiped away the tears, her unparalleled beauty shone through as her usually slightly knitted brows now completely relaxed.

Even though Ye Fan was used to seeing the world’s most astonishing beauties, he had to admit in his heart that Shangguan Wuqiu was indeed incredibly beautiful.

Taking his gaze from Shangguan Wuqiu’s stunning face, Ye Fan said, “Since you’re not scared, you can help take care of that woman.

After all, you share common misfortunes.”

Ye Fan did not have much faith in Zhao Lina’s ability to soothe people.

“Mhm, alright,” Shangguan Wuqiu agreed cheerfully and then walked elegantly towards Zhao Lina and the female hostage.

Ye Fan then continued by gathering the five robbers together, tearing strips from their clothes, and binding them.

With Shangguan Wuqiu’s assistance, the female hostage’s emotions quickly stabilized.

Zhao Lina couldn’t help but pout a little, not aware of Shangguan Wuqiu’s issue with her, so she smiled amiably at Zhao Lina and said softly, “Hello.

You are truly brave to have come out as a hostage.”

“It’s nothing.

I’m a police officer, just doing my job,” Zhao Lina replied, pretending not to care, “By the way, what is your name?”

Unaware of Zhao Lina’s ulterior motive, Shangguan Wuqiu smiled genuinely and said, “My name is Shangguan Wuqiu.”

“Where do you live?

What do you do?” Zhao Lina continued to inquire.

Shangguan Wuqiu answered honestly as well.

Zhao Lina couldn’t resist asking another question, “It seems like you know Chief Ye?”

“Mhm, yes,” Shangguan Wuqiu tilted her lovely face and said with a smile, her beautiful eyes curving, “Speaking of which, he has already saved me twice…”

Zhao Lina thought to herself in disdain, “Only twice, he has saved me three times!

Look at you, acting as if you owe him your life.

If I were that vulgar, would I have to marry him in my next life?”

However, upon thinking of the word “marry,” she suddenly remembered Ye Fan was already married to Li Zhaojun, and felt there was no point in being jealous of Shangguan Wuqiu, so she lost the desire to view her as a rival.

Ten or so minutes later, endless police sirens could be heard; the police force finally arrived.

Xu Xiangli, Gao Xiaoming, and several other officers witnessed the five vicious robbers bundled together, and the three hostages, including Zhao Lina, unharmed.

They were all shocked as they turned to look at Ye Fan, their faces filled with disbelief and admiration.

“Chief Ye, you are truly amazing!” Xu Xiangli rushed to Ye Fan, shouting excitedly.

Other police leaders also gathered around, offering their praises incessantly.

“Heh, what’s amazing?” Ye Fan smiled faintly and then pretended not to care as he covered it up, “After all, I’ve been in the army.

I just demobilized, and haven’t gone to waste yet.”

Then he shifted the attention and said, “Our county has actually experienced such an extremely vile incident as an armed bank robbery, and people have died.

We, as police officers, cannot escape blame!”

Upon hearing this, the smiles on the faces of Xu Xiangli and others immediately sank.

Just last week, they had started to strengthen security management for the Spring Festival, yet such an event still occurred.

They feared that the county committee, county government, and city police department would all be furious, questioning the entire county police department’s capacity for work.
