Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO

Chapter 97 Goodwill [Fourth Update]



Zhu Xiaoyue's eyes were tightly closed, her long lashes trembled slightly, and two tear drops slid from the corners of her eyes, leaving trails on her cheeks.

Li Xiaoyao sighed softly in his heart, this woman may have a fiery temper, but deep down, she was very conservative. If it weren't for the gunshot wound she sustained today, he'd bet if he dared to touch her this close, she would probably pull out a gun and blow his head off on the spot.

"Hey, what exactly are you doing in this small county town that even snipers are on your trail? It's like something out of a movie," Li Xiaoyao deliberately changed the subject to divert Zhu Xiaoyue's attention, of course, he was also somewhat curious.

Zhu Xiaoyue was indeed distracted, she snorted lightly and said, "Do you remember Dong Haoran?"

"Yeah, that guy, wasn't he arrested?" Li Xiaoyao had undone all the buttons; he wrapped one hand around Zhu Xiaoyue's delicate white neck, lifted her upper body gently with a bit of strength, and then carefully took off her bloodied shirt.

There was a gunshot wound on her shoulder, fresh blood was still seeping out, looking quite terrifying.

Zhu Xiaoyue's figure was truly perfect, and because she was a police officer who trained frequently, her arms were very toned, not at all flabby like most women's. Especially her clavicle, it was particularly perfect.

Li Xiaoyao frowned, the woman's injuries were not light. Seeing him silent, Zhu Xiaoyue took the initiative to speak: "After Dong Haoran was arrested, I immediately led people to capture Wang Min, and from what Wang Min said, we learned about a major drug trafficking gang."

"This gang's base is right underneath this small county, in a village below," Zhu Xiaoyue continued, "I came this time to do some preliminary investigation, but I didn't expect this drug trafficking gang to be so brazen!"

Li Xiaoyao was disinfecting Zhu Xiaoyue's shoulder with medical alcohol, and upon hearing her, he laughed and said, "Little Zhu, I'm not trying to criticize you, but sometimes, you need to use your head when working on a case. In modern society, successful criminals take the high IQ crime route. Surviving up until now, like you, is nothing short of a miracle."

Zhu Xiaoyue angrily said, "What do you mean? Are you saying I'm brainless?"

That was precisely what Li Xiaoyao meant; although Zhu Xiaoyue had a strong sense of justice, she rarely used her brain to think things through.

"What I mean is, you should have had a foolproof plan in place rather than rashly charging in after just getting a bit of information. What if the information Wang Min and Dong Haoran gave you was all false?"

Zhu Xiaoyue stubbornly said, "That's impossible, if there was someone laying an ambush for me today, it means this drug trafficking gang is definitely here."

Li Xiaoyao rolled his eyes and said, "But didn't you think about why those criminals would know to expect your investigation here?"

At his words, Zhu Xiaoyue was momentarily stunned.

Indeed, why would they know she was coming here? The only people who knew about her trip this time were within the police department. Could it be there was a mole in the police?

Zhu Xiaoyue uncertainly said, "Are you saying…"

Li Xiaoyao cut her off, affirming, "That's right, there's definitely a mole in your police team."

"Give me your phone," Zhu Xiaoyue struggled to sit up, but Li Xiaoyao pushed her back down.

"Don't get agitated, what's done is done, and a call now would only alert the mole in the police department." As Li Xiaoyao dressed her wound and wrapped the bandage, he continued, "Let me ask you, if the mole was your team captain, wouldn't your phone call just scare off the snake in the grass?"

Zhu Xiaoyue immediately countered, "Impossible, Captain Zhang absolutely cannot be the mole."

Li Xiaoyao helplessly shook his head and said, "I know Brother Zhang can't be the mole. My point is, now that the incident has occurred, and it's clear that there's a mole in the police team, there's no need to rush."

"But..."

"Don't talk, let me finish wrapping the bandage for you." Li Xiaoyao interrupted her, his actions gentle and professional as he wrapped up her bandage.

In just a few minutes, Zhu Xiaoyue's wound was neatly dressed. Just as she was about to stand up, Li Xiaoyao held her still, saying, "Don't move, let me massage it for you. It can promote blood circulation and help your wound heal faster."

Zhu Xiaoyue looked at Li Xiaoyao with a strange expression, "You know how to massage?"

Li Xiaoyao replied irritably, "Have you forgotten who cured Ye Qinglian?"

Zhu Xiaoyue fell silent, she hadn't immediately remembered that the man sitting in front of her was also a miraculous doctor.

The two sat face to face, Li Xiaoyao's right thumb and forefinger pressing on an acupoint just below her shoulder blade. He began to massage with just the right amount of pressure.

Zhu Xiaoyue felt that Li Xiaoyao's finger technique was very peculiar, but although it was strange, it was soothing with every press.

Li Xiaoyao's fingers seemed to carry a warm flow, stirring under her shoulder, and she even felt that at that moment, her shoulder wound wasn't painful anymore.

Naturally, Zhu Xiaoyue didn't know that Li Xiaoyao had used the spiritual power within him to help her heal her injury.

Li Xiaoyao's cultivation level wasn't anything profound, his spiritual power extremely limited, but he didn't hesitate to use it to alleviate Zhu Xiaoyue's pain.

After about ten minutes of massaging, Li Xiaoyao was drenched in sweat. He let go of her shoulder and asked, "How does it feel?"

Zhu Xiaoyue looked at her injured shoulder in amazement and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore." She then looked at the sweaty and slightly pale-faced Li Xiaoyao and asked, "What about you?"

Li Xiaoyao smiled and said, "The massage I just did, that's the highest technique my master passed down to me. It may look like I just gave you a simple ten-minute massage, but it actually consumed seventy percent of my strength. Seeing you're a lot better now, though, I think it was worth it."

Hearing Li Xiaoyao's words, for some reason, Zhu Xiaoyue felt touched.

Although this man always looked at her with lecherous eyes whenever he saw her, the more she got to know Li Xiaoyao, the more she realized that deep down, he truly was a kind man.

"Thank you, Li Xiaoyao," Zhu Xiaoyue said, moved.

Li Xiaoyao smiled and teased, "Comrade Xiaoyue, you're feeling quite touched, aren't you? If you really feel bad about it, it's okay, just offer yourself in return, I don't mind taking a little loss."

His words immediately shattered the hard-fought atmosphere, and Zhu Xiaoyue replied annoyedly, "Go to hell!"
