School Beauty's Peerless Soldier

Chapter 137 Qin Mengyue's Thoughts


"Busty Beauty," upon seeing this screen name, Xu Fan immediately pictured that dashing policewoman of his.

He had been thinking that tonight, when things quieted down, he'd use his alternate account to probe a bit, to find out whatever was causing the little tyrant such annoyance.

Unexpectedly, she had taken the initiative to pour out her woes to him.

Xu Fan quickly skimmed through the messages Qin Mengyue had sent; they had been sent about two hours ago.

Reading the gentle feminine undertones in her words, Xu Fan couldn't help but roll his eyes.

What in the world could have turned this tigress into someone exuding such soft femininity?

"Sorry, I only just saw your message."

Two hours had passed, and Xu Fan wasn't sure whether the other person was still online as his fingers typed out the response on the screen and sent it over.

"It's okay, it's okay, you're busy with work – I completely understand."

"..."

Receiving an instant reply, Xu Fan felt a bit thrown by the lightning-fast speed.

At home, Xu Fan had seen Qin Mengyue chatting with others.

Though she had a fierce personality, her pretty face and hot figure attracted plenty of men.

Normally, when dealing with men who fawned over her, the little tyrant would ignore those she didn't like and take at least half an hour to reply to those she found tolerable.

The reply? "I'm going to take a shower..."

When had she ever responded so quickly?

This was him, after all, Xu Fan didn't feel jealous. Immediately, he typed another message into his phone and sent it back.

"You seem unhappy – is something bothering you?"

"How did you know???"

Qin Mengyue seemed very excited with her response, prompting Xu Fan to roll his eyes yet again.

As if it wasn't obvious with her being like a little volcano all day, could he not tell?

Figuring she might be imagining some kind of telepathic connection, Xu Fan replied, "If you have something on your mind, it's better to talk about it – it might make you feel better."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, but you can't blame me for offloading my troubles onto you."

"You know I'm a police officer. Recently, because I beat up a rich second-generation who was involved in a hit-and-run, my superiors demoted me to traffic police."

"Everyone thinks that's why I'm upset, but that's not it..."

"Our team recently received a tip-off that Cross Border's top confidant, Bingdilian, has gone into hiding in Jinling for a holiday. This information wasn't easy to come by, and when our team received this message, we were excited for an entire evening!"

"Do you know? If we follow up on this info, we're sure to catch Bingdilian! By pulling on the vine, we might even, with Interpol's help, wipe out this drug cartel! If successful, it could save so many lives!"

"In preparation for Bingdilian's infiltration into Huaxia, we worked tirelessly to gather intelligence. But just the day before the operation, damn it, because I impulsively hit that rich second-generation, I was stripped of the right to participate in the operation!"

"This..."

Watching the messages Qin Mengyue typed out one by one, Xu Fan could only smile bitterly.

So, that was the backstory to her recent gloominess.

With her intense sense of justice being sidelined from the task force at such a critical moment, no wonder she was so frustrated...

Only...

"Logically speaking, with such an important operation, they shouldn't have kicked you out over something so trivial, right?"

Bingdilian was a name Xu Fan had heard of; in Cross Border, she was considered an expert.

Capturing such an element was crucial for the safety of Huaxia, and Qin Mengyue had participated in all the preliminary intelligence gathering for the operation. She was also skilled, so it made no sense to kick her out at a time like this.

"Logically, that's true, but my dad was worried that something would happen to me during the operation, so he took the opportunity to have his subordinate, who is also my immediate superior, kick me out..."

"Hmph, if it weren't for helping someone this time, I wouldn't even want to go back to that home! Hmph, what a shitty dad, not understanding me as well as you do!"

Listening to Qin Mengyue's self-pity, Xu Fan couldn't help but curl his lips.

He thought to himself that Qin Mengyue was really modest. From what she said, it seemed that her father's position was probably not a low one...

"So, what happened after that? How did the operation turn out?"

Xu Fan couldn't help but ask. Upon seeing this message, Qin Mengyue's eyes began to redden uncontrollably.

She struggled for a long time to hold back the tears in her eyes, bit her lip, and said to Xu Fan, "Everyone was sacrificed!"

Everyone sacrificed! Those simple four words carried a weight that Xu Fan knew all too well.

The friends who had been drinking and celebrating with him the day before could be lying on the battlefield in the blink of an eye. Xu Fan had experienced such things during his time as a mercenary overseas!

So, he knew exactly how Qin Mengyue felt at that moment!

This was the reason for her recent sadness!

"Do you know? I regret so much. If I hadn't missed the operation, maybe, just maybe, we could have brought that guy to justice! But me..."

As she typed this, the sourness in Qin Mengyue's heart became too much to continue typing. Thinking about the faces that once shared her joys and sorrows and were now only black and white photos on a martyr's monument, she tried hard to hold back the tears welling up in her eyes, but she couldn't stop them anymore...

"I regret so much..."

Seeing the words that popped up on the screen, Xu Fan could imagine just how heartbroken Qin Mengyue must have been.

Despite her usual fierce demeanor, she was still a woman...

Not sure how to comfort her in this situation, Xu Fan sighed helplessly and could only type, "Cry it out if you want to."

"If you're really embarrassed, then cry in secret at home. Last time you mentioned something about Xu Fan, if it gets too bad, you can ask him to lend you a shoulder."

"Ptui! I don't want that scumbag's comfort!"

Qin Mengyue, still overwhelmed with grief, started cursing angrily at the mention of Xu Fan's name.

Xu Fan was annoyed, thinking, damn it, I'm trying to comfort you in a roundabout way, and this is how you treat me?

"Er, is that person not good?"

Xu Fan suppressed his irritation and asked.

He wanted to see what kind of impression he made on Qin Mengyue.

"Hmph, it's not that he's not good, this guy actually has a pretty good heart, and he's not bad-looking either, but he's just too sleazy and dirty, always flirting and making people feel embarrassed. Isn't he awful?"

"Hehe, anyway, he's not as good as you, that's for sure."

"..."

Seeing Qin Mengyue's coy and delicate words, Xu Fan felt a herd of grass mud horses racing through his chest...

He was lucky to know this little ancestor of his; otherwise, she might actually have bamboozled him.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Qin Mengyue, I would have never guessed that your skin is almost as thick as mine..."
