So Pure, So Flirtatious

“Tavern Heaven on Earth?” Yang Ming was astounded. “Go back to Tavern Heaven on Earth for what?”

Chen Mengyan still didn’t answer. A shrill siren came outside the window. Several police cars flashed by with warning lights.

“Is Uncle Chen having a big case today?” Yang Ming asked curiously as he saw several police cars in a row.

“I don’t know. It seems that my dad has a mission… These things, why would he tell me?” The atmosphere inside the car was just right. It was somewhat flirtatious, but it was destroyed by Yang Ming’s casual question. Chen Mengyan was naturally annoyed and replied displeased.

“Oh… so that’s it.” Yang Ming didn’t care. He started the car and then asked, “You just said let’s go to Tavern Heaven on Earth? Go back for what?”

“…” Before Chen Mengyan could speak, her phone rang at this time. Chen Mengyan took a look at her phone and made a gesture for Yang Ming to keep quiet. She answered the phone, “Hello… Mom, what’s the matter?”

It was uncertain what the person said over the phone, but Chen Mengyan’s expression suddenly changed. “Mom, what are you saying… Alright, I got it. I’m going now…”

“What’s wrong?” Yang Ming felt puzzled. When Chen Mengyan hung up the phone, he quickly asked.

“My dad had a car accident… He is in the First People’s Hospital of Song Jiang City…” Chen Mengyan’s tone had changed to a sobbing tone and panic.

“What?! You said Uncle Chen was in a car accident?” Yang Ming was shocked to hear Chen Mengyan’s words. “Is he in danger?”

“I’m not very clear… My mother is on the road. Let’s hurry up…” Chen Mengyan urged him.

“Alright.” Yang Ming quickly turned the car around and rushed to First People’s Hospital of Song Jiang City.

Along the way, Chen Mengyan bit her lips and lowered her head. She constantly looked the time on the phone, but she didn’t urge Yang Ming. She didn’t want Yang Ming to have another car accident.

However, Yang Ming didn’t think the possibility of a car accident was great. Although the speed of the car was very fast, Yang Ming could see the movement in front a few kilometers at a glance, regardless of the corner or the road. Yang Ming could prepare in advance for any situation.

They went all the way to the First People’s Hospital of Song Jiang City. Downstairs in the hospital, they saw a few police cars flashing the police lights. Apparently, they had just arrived. They were the few that Yang Ming had just seen.

Yang Ming and Chen Mengyan knew few of the policemen here. Including the police surnamed Cai who they met the last time at the entrance of Chen Mengyan’s home, and the deputy captain surnamed Li that Yang Ming had met before.

Yang Ming’s car came quickly and stopped next to the police car. It obviously caught the attention of Police Officer Cai and Captain Li. Seeing Yang Ming and Chen Mengyan coming out from the car, they immediately ran over. “Mengyan, Little Yang, you’re here…”

“Uncle Cai, how is my father?” Chen Mengyang asked immediately after getting out of the car.

“Not quite sure. He just went into the operating room. Deputy Captain Xia is up there.” Police Officer Cai shook his head and smiled bitterly. “But don’t get angry. It should be fine. When Captain Chen caught the criminal, he had more serious injuries than this, and he survived it.”

Deputy Captain Xia referred to Xia Xue. Although Xia Xue was relatively young, she had been promoted to deputy captain. Police Officer Cai still had to be respectful.

Yang Ming was also very puzzled about Xia Xue’s promotion. Although Xia Xue had merit in Wang Xifan’s smuggling case, she was still too young. Logically, only a record of her merits and an award of the title should be enough, but she was promoted as the deputy captain. This made Yang Ming have to suspect whether or not there was a deeper background behind Xia Xue. However, then again, even if she had a strong background, it was useless if she wasn’t capable of it. However, Xia Xue’s credit was like a freebie…

Not long after, a Toyota 4700 flashing with a police light came, too. Chen Mengyan’s mother jumped out of the car, and Chief Police Wang was with her.

As for Chief Wang, Yang Ming also had some impression of him. He was an old classmate of his high school Headmaster Li. Yang Ming had met him in the case of him being a good Samaritan. As the head of the unit, the chief naturally had to visit when his staff had a car accident when performing official duties.

It seemed that he first picked up Mother Chen and then came together. There was also a deputy chief who was in charge of criminal investigation work. Several people were also anxious.

Chen Mengyan saw her mother come, and she immediately ran over to her mother’s embrace. Originally, she wanted to hold Yang Ming, but there were too many acquaintances here. All of them were her dad’s colleagues. How could Chen Mengyan do that?

“Mom–” Chen Mengyan held Mother Chen tightly. Although Mother Chen was also worried about Chen Fei’s safety, after all, she was an adult, and there were also executives in the unit, she was somehow calm. So she comforted her daughter, “Mengyan, don’t be afraid. It’s fine. Mom is here.”

Mother Chen saw Yang Ming also, so she nodded to him and said, “Little Yang, sorry for the trouble.”

Yang Ming shook his head and said, “Aunty Chen, you are being too polite. Based on the relationship between me and Mengyan, how is there trouble? I should be here.”

As he said this, a doctor wearing a white coat walked out and shouted to the crowd, “Who is Chen Fei’s family? Come over.”

After listening to Mother Chen, she quickly walked over with Chen Mengyan. Yang Ming and the others followed behind.

“Doctor, I’m Chen Fei’s wife. How is he?” Mother Chen calmed down and asked.

“Chen Fei’s condition isn’t life-threatening, but the bone fracture on the right lower leg requires immediate surgery. Please sign for it,” said the doctor.

Hearing that Chen Fei wasn’t in danger, everyone was relieved, but when Mother Chen heard about the bone fracture in her husband’s calf, she couldn’t help but worry. “Doctor, will Chen Fei’s leg have … any problem in the future?”

“If he recovers from this, there should be no problem with walking, but it is impossible to participate in any long-distance running.” The doctor explained, “Another thing is that his leg will feel pain on cloudy and rainy days.”

“That’s good. That’s good.” When Chief Wang listened to the doctor’s words, he was afraid that Mother Chen would be worried, so he quickly comforted her, “Chen Fei isn’t young anymore. He will do the command and coordination work later. The specific errands will be handled by the young people!”

Mother Chen also knew that this was already a blessing in misfortune. Even if he really became a cripple, it was better than if he was dead. After she signed the papers, they waited in the hospital together.

When Chen Mengyan heard that her father wasn’t in danger, she was relieved, too.

Chief Wang asked Deputy Captain Li to pay the money and handle the hospitalization procedure. Because it was a car accident that occurred during a mission, it was a work-related injury so the bureau would pay all the medical expenses.

The several people sat in the waiting room. After a short time, a young guy with gauze wrapped around his head came in. When he saw Chief Wang, he said with an apology, “Chief Wang… I…”

“It’s fine. No one wanted this to happen. Can you talk about the situation at that time?” Chief Wang waved his hand. “Xiao Zhao, you’re a pretty stable driver usually. What the hell was going on this time?”

Xiao Zhao was Chen Fei’s driver. His injuries weren’t heavy. He had cuts on his head and got three stitches. It was nothing serious. He broke Chen Fei’s leg, so he was feeling quite guilty of it.

“Chief Wang… I saw a ghost…” Xiao Zhao said carefully.

“What?” Chief Wang was stunned, but then he frowned immediately and said, “Xiao Zhao, what nonsense are you talking about? What ghost? How is there a ghost in the world?”

“Chief Wang… I know you definitely won’t believe it, but I did meet a ghost… A person without half of his head was in the middle of the road… and he was running to me…” When Xiao Zhao said this, there was an expression of horror in his eyes. Obviously, he was terrified.

But how could Chief Wang believe in a supernatural thing like a ghost? After working as a policeman for half of his life, he had dealt with many dead people. How would he believe Xiao Zhao?

“Xiao Zhao, are you drunk? What nonsense are you saying?” Chief Wang couldn’t help but say, “Young man, if you made a mistake, just take the initiative to admit it. No one will blame you! If you said that you’re occasionally distracted, and caused a car accident carelessly. We will try to understand it. But this excuse that you fabricated is a little ridiculous, right?”

“Chief Wang… I really saw it… I didn’t lie to you…” Xiao Zhao was still arguing.

“You…” Chief Wang was obviously mad at him. He pointed at Xiao Zhao, and his body was shaking a little.

“Chief Wang, don’t be angry. Xiao Zhao may have been overly scared. He wasn’t quite conscious now…” Deputy Captain Li quickly advised.

“Forget it!” Chief Wang waved his hand. “First send him back to take a rest. He will report in detail to the bureau tomorrow.”

Looking at the gauze on Xiao Zhao’s head, Chief Wang couldn’t say anything more. Maybe Deputy Captain Li was right. Xiao Zhao was frightened, and even his head was hurt. He might not have been conscious at that time.

“Wait!” Xia Xue just came in at this time and heard Xiao Zhao’s words. She quickly said, “Xiao Zhao, you said you saw a ghost? Are you sure?”

“Xia Xue, you’re a policewoman. How can you believe in supernatural things like ghosts?” Chief Wang said somewhat unpleasantly.

“No, Chief Wang, you forgot about the accident of the two foreigners before. The forensic expert said that it seems that two people were extremely terrified before they died…” Xia Xue reminded him.

“You mean, these two foreigners also saw ghosts…” Chief Wang just said half of it, and suddenly said, “I understand. Do you mean that someone was pretending to be a ghost to scare people?”

Xia Xue nodded. She was responsible for the hospital’s haunting case recently, so she was very sensitive to this kind of thing. Chief Wang also thought of the case that Xia Xue was now responsible for, and he suddenly realized it.

“However, this person who is standing in the middle of the road to pretend to be a ghost isn’t afraid of being crushed by a car? This seems to make no sense, right?” Chief Wang immediately rejected after listening to this idea.

“Maybe this person is mentally ill.” Xia Xue said. Those who come out to pretend to be ghosts are definitely mentally ill.

“That is great. Since you have doubts, you are responsible for following up on this matter.” Chief Wang obviously didn’t agree with Xia Xue’s guess, but since Xia Xue was responsible for this type of case, it was okay to let her investigate.
