The Magnificent Son-in-law

Chapter 19: Narrow Roads for Enemies



Xiao Feng walked into Jiangcheng Police Station, surrounded by a group of police officers. He held his head high, cooperating with the officers around him. Anyone who didn't know would think some big leader was here to inspect.

However, the next moment, his face changed instantly upon seeing a woman in police uniform...

Xiao Feng couldn't help but internally exclaim "damn," as he looked at the equally stunned woman. Wasn't she the beauty he met before at Brocade Manor?

Honestly, this uniform really adds a different charm to her!

Looking at the police rank on her shoulder, Xiao Feng couldn't help but sigh. This really proves the old saying true: enemies always meet on a narrow path.

Song Keren, after a brief moment of shock, immediately walked briskly forward, stood opposite Xiao Feng, and said coldly, "Little thief, I've been looking for you. Didn't expect you to deliver yourself."

Xiao Feng was taken aback, smiled, and said, "Just a little misunderstanding, I'm fine. You don't need to worry about me."

Song Keren widened her eyes, feeling a bit disoriented: What kind of reasoning does this guy have? Which eye of his saw me being concerned about him?

The police inside the station couldn't help but start discussing when they heard the exchange between the two.

"What's going on? Does Chief Song know that guy?"

"I don't know what you guys think, but I surely feel that Chief Song and that guy have an unusual relationship."

"Isn't that obvious? Even an idiot can tell."

A moment later, Song Keren forcefully suppressed her anger, glared at Xiao Feng, and then called Zhao Xingfeng aside, asking in a low voice, "Sergeant Zhao, what's the situation with the person you arrested?"

Zhao Xingfeng was instantly bewildered, beginning to suspect the relationship between Xiao Feng and their newly appointed chief. But realizing he couldn't hide it, he answered truthfully, "We arrested a rapist. Earlier, we received a report that Zhonghao Hotel..."

Zhao Xingfeng reported everything truthfully and then cautiously asked, "Chief Song, do you know that person?"

Song Keren replied without any good humor, "How could I know such a pervert? Investigate thoroughly. If the crime is verified, they must be severely punished!"

Having said that, she turned and left, thinking to herself: Little thief, you've finally landed in my hands!

Zhao Xingfeng, however, was still puzzled, unsure if Song Keren's words were sarcastic or if she really intended to have Xiao Feng severely punished.

Yet, just as Song Keren was about to return to her office, the officers' discussions could be heard.

"Our new Chief Song seems to be deliberately hinting at something, huh?"

"I think so too. Otherwise, why emphasize that it must be severely punished for such a case that could just follow the process?"

"Could it be that Chief Song really has a special relationship with that person and wants to use her position to downplay the incident?"

Hearing this, Song Keren could no longer hold back. Being seen as abusing her authority only a few days after taking office? How could she command respect in the future if that's confirmed?!

Thinking of this, Song Keren immediately turned around and headed towards the interrogation room...

The space in the interrogation room was very cramped, with only three seats and a table as wide as one person set in the middle.

At this moment, Xiao Feng was sitting on a chair, cheerfully accepting a cup of hot tea handed to him by a policeman in front of him, "Thank you, thank you. That's really very kind of you."

Another policeman took out a pack of cigarettes, gave one to Xiao Feng, and even personally lit it for him.

And all of this was because of the brief exchange Xiao Feng had with Song Keren earlier.

The words made everyone certain that even if Xiao Feng and Song Keren's relationship wasn't as everyone imagined, it was definitely not an ordinary friendship.

Little did they know, Xiao Feng and Song Keren weren't just any ordinary friends; they were practically archenemies.

So, under such circumstances, some quick-witted individuals had already begun to cozy up to Xiao Feng, thinking that flattering Xiao Feng was essentially the same as flattering the new chief.

Xiao Feng took a puff of his cigarette and was about to speak when "bang!" The door of the interrogation room was violently pushed open, and Song Keren stood at the door, grinding her teeth in anger as she looked at Xiao Feng lounging like a lord.

"Chief Song..." A policeman hurriedly put the cigarette pack away, looking somewhat flustered.

"All of you, get out!" Song Keren ordered. Initially, she didn't want to sour relations with the grassroots officers, but seeing Xiao Feng's relaxed demeanor, she couldn't hold back.

After the two policemen left, Song Keren immediately slammed the table, "Do you think this is some kind of place? Put out the cigarette."

"Why such a big temper?" Xiao Feng leisurely took another puff but still put out the cigarette.

Song Keren sat angrily across from Xiao Feng, opened her notebook, and asked, "Name?"

Xiao Feng thought for a moment and replied, "Whatever."

"..." Song Keren almost wanted to kill the guy in front of her, but out of professional propriety, she forcibly suppressed her anger and coldly asked, "Not cooperating, huh?"

"I'm cooperating a lot," Xiao Feng looked innocent, "You might have misheard. I said Dou Xing, 'Dou' as in sinusitis, and 'Xing' as in star."

The policemen eavesdropping at the door couldn't help but laugh; it was their first time hearing someone answer questions like this.

"Isn't our Chief friends with that guy?"

"What do you know? This is just for show, a formality to prevent outsiders from talking."

While whispering to each other, "bang," the door of the interrogation room shut.

The eavesdropping policemen outside hurriedly returned to their positions, but their enthusiasm for discussion didn't diminish.

Previously, Song Keren wanted to avoid outsiders misunderstanding her, so she left the interrogation room door open while questioning Xiao Feng.

However, now she thought differently. Given Xiao Feng's attitude and speaking style, it might not only fail to clear the internal misunderstandings but might even undermine her authority.

After closing the door, Song Keren angrily asked, "Why did you say that earlier? Now everyone in the station thinks there's something special between you and me. Do you know what impact your careless words have on me?"

Xiao Feng saw Song Keren's expression and clearly realized that she was on the verge of exploding, and once pushed too far, it would be very unfavorable to his current situation.

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Feng suddenly gave a smile, changing the subject: "I didn't expect someone as beautiful as you to be a police officer, and so young to be a chief. If there's a phrase to describe you, it's 'promising youth'."

"Don't flatter me!" Song Keren wasn't swayed at all by Xiao Feng's words and said coldly, "Since you're not cooperating, I'll go find the victim to understand the situation now. If it's confirmed you did something to her, I will definitely punish you severely without mercy!"

Saying that, she stood up and walked towards the door of the interrogation room, but paused at the doorway, turning her head to say, "Also, your unauthorized entry into my house before can't just be settled like this."
