"If only you were a man… I'd probably fall head over heels for you."

The corner of Chu He's lips twitched a bit.

What did she mean?

Is she saying that I'm very masculine?

Can this even be considered a praise?

She then took the lady home with the intention of taking her to the county for a medical checkup.

Unlike the county, there were not many advanced modes of transportation back home, let alone transports like buses and cabs. The locals tended to travel on motorbikes.

Her second-hand motorbike was a dated yet stylish model, which she had purchased from the Internet last year; it used to belong to a young motorcyclist from an adjacent city. She bought it and did some modifications, spending slightly over two thousand yuan on this bad guy.

Naturally, she was quite surprised to find that she had some talent in working with machinery; with a bit of tinkering, the outdated motorbike got a spanking, new look.

Many people, especially the youngsters, were utterly envious of her. It was the dream of many of them to own such a cool and bad*ss motorbike, but one could easily cost a whopping seven to eight thousand yuan. Not everyone had the ability to achieve her incredible feat of spending slightly over a thousand yuan on an old motorbike and another thousand plus yuan on its modifications.

The weather was still slightly chilly in April, so the policewoman went home to take a thick coat for the pregnant lady first, lest the latter catch a cold.

"By right, you should be going for monthly medical checkups." She told the lady as she sorted out the clothes. "Still, I've never seen you going to the hospital even once since you came here. This is also carelessness on my part; I should've asked you about it earlier."

Meng Qingxue smilingly replied, "I don't know much about these…"

"You don't have any knowledge about pregnancy?" The officer shook her head with a resigned smile. "That's no excuse for a mother-to-be. Say, shouldn't you take care of yourself better? I'm starting to regret introducing you to the job. I heard from the boss that you can actually make around a dozen lanterns a day, which is as many lanterns as the other veteran experts can make. Are you out of your mind? Why are you working so hard at the expense of your health?"

"B-But I need the money…" she said desperately. "I need money to sustain a living and to support my child; how am I going to raise the baby if I've got no money?"

"…Still, you can't take your health for granted." The cop stood up and crossed her arms before her chest. "Don't you know that we can always cross the bridge when we get there?"

"Well…"

"You just need to focus on yourself and the baby inside your stomach for now; don't concern yourself with other matters; you hear me? I have some savings, so you don't need to worry about money issues."

She was startled to hear this and felt overwhelmed by the other's kindness, but the woman proceeded to say, "The average wage in Yan City is relatively low, and the jobs are more laborious and taxing. Sometimes, even after slogging your guts out, you may only earn two thousand yuan a month; it's hard to support yourself on that salary, much less providing for a child."

"Chu He…" She let out a helpless sigh. "The better you are to me, the guiltier I feel; I must've caused you a lot of trouble, right?"

"Nah."
