Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Feng Jun’s face and build had changed a lot after harvesting the grass in the QQ farm, but the contour of his body stayed the same.
The girl had exercised for a short time in Hongjie Fitness Club the other day, and she had an impression of the attendant who served her.
She had the doubt, so she asked that question. Feng Jun smiled and shook his head. “I’m afraid you have the wrong memory.”
The girl stared at him for a long while before she said, “I don’t have a bad memory. Have you really forgotten about me?”
Feng Jun didn’t forget about her, but he actually had the deepest impression of the girl in yellow among them.
The girl was nearly 1.7 meters tall, and she was wearing a light yellow short-sleeved shirt and a light yellow knee-length princess dress that day. She had long hair and beautiful fine features, which were quite attractive.
Most importantly, the girl had an air of elegance. In addition to her air, she was also stunning.
What made her even more attractive was the charm of being young, which couldn’t be blocked.
Even Liu Shuming who loved playing around with different kinds of women didn’t dare not to show any respect toward the girl in yellow, and he only sexually harassed the girl’s friends.
Feng Jun thought highly of himself, but he also abased himself before the girl.
He clearly knew that he couldn’t own such a beautiful girl, at least before he encountered that adventure.
Even if he could own her, it wouldn’t last for a long time.
Facing this girl’s question, he dragged his mind back. “I’m sorry, I’m very sure that we haven’t met before,” said Feng Jun with a faint smile.
The girl stared at him for a long while, then nodded with hesitation. “Fine, but anyway, you’ve saved my life today, and can you do me another favor?”
Feng Jun thought for a while. He then agreed. “Sure, as long as it isn’t complicated.”
It wasn’t a satisfactory answer, because the girl was also young and as beautiful as Xiao Li, but he acted as if he was very busy.
The girl felt slightly hurt, but she didn’t want to be annoyed at her life-saver. “Well, can we go to the police station and report this case together? You’re the witness.”
“Report this case?” Feng Jun was surprised. “How much money do you have in your bag? I don’t think you can successfully register it if the number is lower than two thousand.”
The girl patted her bag and said with pride, “My bag is worth two thousand and eight hundred yuan alone. Don’t worry about it.”
Hearing that, Feng Jun realized that this girl was much richer than him.
She’s rich!
Feng Jun thought that his new phone only cost him over two thousand yuan.
Anyway, he wouldn’t be jealous of a girl, so he smiled. “Well, they just wanted your money, not your bag, so I don’t think it’ll work.”
Feng Jun also hated thieves, and he had encountered a thief in a coach before.
He had worked for nearly 20 hours back then and was in a hurry to go back home, but he lost money when he simply took a nap in the car.
He lost over five hundred yuan, and his formal suit, which was much more expensive, was cut open.
He was furious and heart-broken. Actually, if it was possible, he would rather directly give the thief all the money he had as long as the thief wouldn’t cut his suit. It was his only suit which he wore for important occasions.
If this girl really ran into a thief too but her bag was fine, the police wouldn’t take it seriously.
The girl, however, shook her head with confidence. “I don’t care. Even if I don’t report it to the police, I’ll catch them sooner or later, but it’s better if we do what we should do.”
Feng Jun was surprised, looking at her. “Does it mean the stuff in your bag isn’t worth two thousand yuan?”
The girl felt embarrassed. “I have more than two thousand yuan on my bank card, and I also have a phone. Hey, hasn’t anyone told you that you have a strange mind?”
Feng Jun blinked, then shook his head. “Sorry, I have already helped you, and I’m too busy to be the witness right now.”
After that, he turned around and walked away. “Bye-bye.”
“Hey, I can pay you,” shouted the girl to his back.
Feng Jun, however, ignored her and left at once.
He was unwilling to be involved in it at all.
The next day, Feng Jun was exercising in Hongjie Fitness Club at 8 am when several people walked in from the door. The girl he met yesterday came with two policemen this time.
The girl looked down her nose at him with a smile of pride on her lips. “Do you think I can’t find you?”
“Well, I didn’t steal your bag. Why couldn’t you let me go?” Feng Jun put down the barbells and stood up slowly with a worried face.
The girl stared straight at him. “You laughed at me and thought I’m poor yesterday.”
“I didn’t.” Feng Jun shook his head at once. It wasn’t a good thing to become a girl’s enemy, especially a mean girl.
He must firmly deny it in case the girl wanted to vent her anger on him. “I can’t even afford a bag of two thousand yuan, so I absolutely can’t laugh at you.”
The girl questioned him again, “Why did you refuse to be the witness?”
Feng Jun wore a resigned expression and spread his hands. “I told you that I’m busy making a living.”
“You’re lying!” The girl stared at his eyes. “Don’t you dare deny it that you know Liu Shuming!”
There was pride in her eyes, as if she was the teacher who caught the cheating student.
In fact, it wasn’t easy for her to find Feng Jun. With the help of surveillance videos, she recognized him and found Hongjie Fitness Club by connecting dots.
When she found out that Feng Jun worked in Hongjie Fitness Club, she remembered that she had been to this club the other day.
Feng Jun had also served her and her friends that day.
She suddenly realized that the strong man with his face covered in black cloth worked in Hongjie Fitness Club too.
The man who robbed and stopped her and the man who rescued her were colleagues! It couldn’t be simple.
Feng Jun was startled and knew that he couldn’t deny it right now. “Yeah, I know him.”
“He seems to be absent today.” The girl gave him a side glance. “Does he know that I’ll come?”
Hearing that, Feng Jun felt this girl was a little dumb. “His head is injured, so he can’t work today.”
“Oh, right.” The girl felt a little embarrassed. “Anyway, did he plan to give you a chance to save my life by robbing me with a covered face?”
“What?” Feng Jun couldn’t believe his ears. “It’s ridiculous. To be honest, Liu Shuming and I don’t get along with each other, and you’re not so beautiful that men will kill each other for you.”
A policeman couldn’t stand it and interrupted them, “Since you know the strong man is Liu Shuming, why did you refuse to be the witness? Do you know what the crime of shielding is?”
Feng Jun hesitated for a second. He then said, “We’re colleagues, and we must make allowance for the reputation of our club.”
After stopping for a while, he added, “By the way, Liu Shuming didn’t succeed yesterday, so it’s an attempt, right?”
The policeman snorted. When he was about to say something else, a female voice sounded not far away. “Oh, why do people come to exercise in police uniforms?”
The next second, a beautiful, mature, tall woman walked over.
She was Zhang Weihong.
The policeman had heard of Zhang Weihong, so he said, “Sister Hong, we’re doing our job.”
“Of course, and we absolutely should be cooperative, but will it be more convenient if you’re in a casual suit?” Zhang Weihong smiled, but the smile wasn’t kind.
This requirement seemed excessive, but it fitted the current market perception. Hongjie Fitness Club was in the service industry after all, and they hated to see the police most.
No businessman in the service industry liked to see policemen in police uniforms in his place, because it could easily cause rumors.
“Sister Hong, this case involves deliberate hurt and revenge. It’s good for you and us if we can finish the legal procedures,” said the policeman with patience although he was losing it.
He was implying something in his sentences.
“I understand.” Zhang Weihong nodded. She then raised her jaw all of a sudden. “Get the jerk over here.”
Two sturdy men supported Liu Shuming and appeared in front of everyone. Coach Liu’s head was shaved half naked and was wrapped in a thick bandage. He also looked listless like a defeated soldier.
“He’s already under my control,” said Zhang Weihong with an expressionless face. “We won’t tolerate any evil deeds in our club, but it’s not our responsibility this time.”
“Great.” Another policeman nodded. His attitude was much better than his colleague. “Thank you very much for your cooperation, and we must take him away.”
Zhang Weihong hesitated for a while. She then said, “Can you tell me what has happened right here? We need to figure out whether our club should be responsible for the crime.”
Only the boss of Hongjie dared to talk to the police like that. Other people might not have the confidence to impose a requirement in that way.
