Chapter 198: Chapter 0198: Taking the Initiative (First Update)_1
 

After not seeing her for a while, Ye Xiong felt that Luo Weiwei had undergone some kind of change, but he couldn’t quite put his finger on what it was.

What hadn’t changed was that she was still so charming.

“Sister Daxiong, long time no see, you’re getting more and more feminine,” Ye Xiong stepped out of the car and chuckled.

“Long time no see, you’re getting more and more shameless,” Luo Weiwei glared at him.

“Where to?” Ye Xiong asked.

“First take me home, I still have to go to the police station tonight.”

“Just discharged from the hospital and not completely healed, yet you’re rushing back to the police station. Are you always this hardcore?” Ye Xiong said, clearly annoyed.

“Can’t help it, the Beast Organization is making big moves in Jiangnan, many officers were injured, and there’s a serious shortage of police in the city. I must go back and help,” Luo Weiwei replied.

“What happened?”

Ye Xiong furrowed his eyebrows. Had something big happened in Jiangnan while he was in Capital City?

“A few days ago, the Beast Organization launched a thunderous operation, and they started hunting down the children from the list you gave me. Dozens of officers who were protecting the children got hurt. The chief ordered us to find a safe and hidden place for the remaining children who weren’t captured and to protect them with all the officers and heavy firepower. I have to go and support…” Luo Weiwei briefly recapped the events of the past few days.

Ye Xiong hadn’t expected such a significant event to have occurred in Jiangnan during his absence.

Luo Weiwei’s home wasn’t far from the hospital, it was an apartment.

The car stopped downstairs at her building, and as Ye Xiong got ready to go up, Luo Weiwei stopped him, saying, “Wait here for a moment, no one’s at my place, it’s not convenient.”

No one at home, isn’t that more convenient?

Initially, Ye Xiong didn’t want to go up, but after hearing her say that, he felt he absolutely had to.

The thought reminded him of that day in the wild mountains with Luo Weiwei.

That day was a memory in his life filled with both happiness and pain.

The happiness stemmed from doing everything a couple could do with Sister Daxiong, barring the bang bang; the pain was precisely from the lack of bang bang.

A man’s nature, the less obtainable something is, the more he wants it.

Could today be a good opportunity?

Ye Xiong’s mind raced with R-rated ideas and he immediately said, “I’m thirsty, I’ll go up for a glass of water.”

“There’s water over there, go buy yourself some to drink!” Luo Weiwei pointed to a nearby convenience store.

“I don’t like to drink soft drinks, drinking too many of them isn’t good for a man’s health, it can weaken the body,” Ye Xiong made up an excuse.

“You’re not thinking of doing something bad, are you?” Luo Weiwei stared at him intensely.

Ye’s face was thicker even than the Great Wall, how could she see through him? He then sanctimoniously said, “Judging others by one’s standards, we’re so familiar, how could I bring myself to do something?”

Luo Weiwei gave him a look and then said, “Go up then!”

He had successfully taken the first step.

Ye Xiong followed her solemnly up the stairs.

Luo Weiwei’s apartment was on the sixth floor, a four-bedroom apartment with a spacious interior.

The place was a mess.

Pillows were thrown on the floor, the cups on the tables had water in them that seemed not to have been changed for who knows how long, there was a layer of dust on the television, and chairs and coffee tables looked like they hadn’t been cleaned in ages.

“Did your mom run off with some other man? Why is the place in such disarray?” Ye Xiong teased.

“Your mom ran off with someone,” Luo Weiwei cursed back without good humor.

“You’re right, my mom did take off, ran off with Yama King.”

Luo Weiwei was taken aback, not expecting to have touched on a sore point for him, and quickly said, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to.”

“It’s been many years, I have gotten over it. But you, why have you suddenly become so polite?”

In the past, Luo Weiwei would definitely not have been so courteous with him; it was very likely that after he mentioned her mom running off with someone, she would have lost her temper.

“It’s nothing?” Luo Weiwei responded.

“It’s not that time of the month, is it?”

“Will you die if you’re not vulgar?” Luo Weiwei threw a sofa cushion at him hard.

Ye Xiong caught the cushion in his hand and said with a laugh, “That’s not it, if it was that time of the month, you would be fiery, not brooding like now, as if a man has dumped you.”

Luo Weiwei couldn’t be bothered to retort, and instead suddenly asked, “Do you know why my place is such a mess?”

“Why?”

“Because my mom hasn’t been home for five whole days.”

“Why?”

“She’s a surgeon at the hospital, and has been performing non-stop surgeries these past days, and the patients have been officers from our police station. I’ve lived at the hospital during this time, seeing colleagues who are more seriously injured than me coming in every day… Do you understand that feeling?” Luo Weiwei became agitated as she spoke.

Ye Xiong then understood why she had been so despondent.

Watching familiar colleagues get injured and die each day, he could understand her feelings without needing her to explain.

“Ah Xiong, help us. The other side is too powerful; we are no match for them, please,” Luo Weiwei pleaded, her eyes reddening as tears welled up.

It was the first time Ye Xiong had seen tears in the eyes of this fiery policewoman.

At that moment, if he didn’t agree, he’d be no different from a beast.

He had come back to Jiangnan this time prepared to have a showdown with the Beast Organization; it was Hong Zaitian’s wish, as well as his own. He was all in, ready to face Skeleton and danger to life, disregarding it all.

“Okay, I promise you,” Ye Xiong nodded firmly.

After hearing his commitment, Luo Weiwei came over and suddenly hugged him, taking the initiative.

“The second room on the left… is mine,” Luo Weiwei whispered softly.

Ye Xiong picked her up in his arms, walked into the room, opened the door, and locked it behind them.

…

Eventually, the two of them had taken this step.

What Ye Xiong didn’t expect was that this time it was Luo Weiwei who had taken the initiative.

In this world, some things are just so strange.

“In the end, I was eaten by you,” Luo Weiwei sighed.

“Who really ate whom?” Ye Xiong laughed and asked.

“Vulgar!”

“You dare call me vulgar, then I’ll just have to be vulgar one more time to show you.”

Ye Xiong pounced with a snicker.
