Chapter 30 You don't want your boss to know either...
An hour later.
Gao Qiang arrived late, carrying a late-night snack. The sound of him opening the door startled Lei Meizhen from her sleep.
She sat on the edge of the bed, glaring angrily at Gao Qiang.
High-strength deadbolt door.
He glanced at Lei Meizhen.
She had shoulder-length hair, fair skin, a tall and well-proportioned figure, and an expressionless face.
She was wearing a fitted dress and a dark red trench coat draped over her shoulders.
This outfit actually looks much better on her than when she wears a police uniform.
Gao Qiang could understand. What does it matter to me after get off work if I look ugly at work?
However, police uniforms also have their advantages.
She exudes an aura that keeps people at arm's length, a classic mature and sophisticated woman.
It's completely different from Ruby's mature woman style.
This ignited Gao Qiang's desire for conquest.
Lei Meizhen didn't speak, she just stared straight at Gao Qiang.
Gao Qiang was puzzled when he saw that she looked like she wanted to eat him up.
Damn it, all I did was make you wait a little while.
You have leverage over us, can't you wait any longer? And you still dare to be so arrogant?
That's 500,000! How long would it take you, as a police officer, to pay it off?
She had intended to continue the standoff with Gao Qiang, but the way he looked her up and down made her uncomfortable, so she said coldly:
"Gao Qiang, you caused quite a stir in Temple Street today. Li Yongsen has asked Fei Sha to investigate you. He's a notorious mad dog."
"I'm investigating him too, so let's see who strikes faster and more ruthlessly."
Gao Qiang sneered, walked to the coffee table, pulled up a stool, sat down in front of Lei Meizhen, and asked:
"Madam, you'd help me, wouldn't you, a police officer who treats human life like dirt?"
Lei Meizhen snorted coldly, crossing her arms: "Then we'll see if your intelligence is of any value."
"It might only be worth 500,000 to others, but it's priceless to Madam."
As Gao Qiang spoke, he took out a neatly folded piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Lei Meizhen.
Lei Meizhen took it expectantly and began to browse it curiously.
As I watched, her already aloof face slowly fell.
She turned the IOU over, facing Gao Qiang, her tone somewhat agitated:
"Don't try to threaten me with an IOU."
"The rules of the gambling table are that debts incurred at the gambling table must be repaid at the gambling table. Now that Chen Mei is dead, the debt is settled. Don't you know that?!"
She originally thought that Gao Qiang needed something from her and wanted to take advantage of him.
Who would have thought that the situation would reverse so drastically?
"Madam is right, you know the rules of the game quite well."
Gao Qiang stared at her like she was looking at prey, and said coldly:
"Madam, you don't want your boss to know that you're a compulsive gambler and have a mountain of debt to gangsters, do you?"
"And your colleagues, the police public relations investigation unit, friends, classmates..."
Gao Qiang's half-threat words made Lei Meizhen feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave.
If he really tells these guys about Lei Meizhen's gambling debts to the gangsters...
She might not be dismissed, but she can forget about ever getting a promotion.
"What do you want?"
Lei Meizhen slightly parted her red lips, her tone softening considerably.
Gao Qiang pointed to the bathroom, "Go change your clothes, I'm afraid you're carrying a bugging device."
Lei Meizhen was stunned for a moment, her cheeks flushed slightly, and after hesitating for a while, she still went.
After coming out, Gao Qiang, as usual, looked around and then checked to make sure there were no listening devices.
He then reached out to Lei Meizhen, "Give me the handcuffs and the key."
Lei Meizhen took out handcuffs and keys from her bag and handed them to him.
"Sit on the edge of the bed."
Gao Qiang spoke in an almost commanding tone.
Lei Meizhen did as she was told mechanically, but her heart began to race, and she already knew what she was about to encounter.
If a man and a woman are alone in a room, and the man has something on the woman that he can use against her, what can they possibly do?
It must be a process of hardening and softening of soft materials.
Lei Meizhen sat down on the edge of the bed and closed her eyes in fear.
Gao Qiang slammed the handcuffs onto her hands, and she let out a soft, coquettish cry.
Gao Qiang handcuffed the other end to the iron frame at the head of the bed.
A moment later, the sound of running water came from the toilet, but it stopped shortly afterward.
"Hurry up, I'll admit defeat if you beat me!"
She maintained her pride in her tone, but her heart was pounding wildly.
Gao Qiang, who was putting an abalone into his mouth, looked up at her:
"Why don't you hurry up? Do I have to rush you just to eat a late-night snack?"
"You've locked me up for two days, and I haven't even urged you to let me go. Now you want me to eat quickly?"
"Madam, you've gone a bit too far."
"what?"
Lei Meizhen opened her eyes in confusion and looked at Gao Qiang.
He was seen eating heartily.
"Didn't you want it?"
Lei Meizhen looked at her somewhat exposed body and asked in confusion.
Gao Qiang pursed his lips and put down his chopsticks:
"Madam, what kind of person do you take me for?"
"I told you at the police station that I'm a good person."
"Not every gangster is a lecherous beast!"
But I definitely am.
Lei Meizhen's face lit up with joy, but she still had some doubts and asked again:
"So you're going to let me go?"
If Gao Qiang didn't want to do *that*, why did he make her change into a bathrobe and handcuff her to the bed?
"What do you mean by 'I'm going to let you go'? I never intended to do anything to you."
Gao Qiang shook his head; the police had too deep a stereotype about gangsters.
"Gao Qiang, since that's the case, let me go."
Lei Meizhen was somewhat pleased.
Gao Qiang shook his head: "Not yet, I don't know if you're a good person or a bad person."
"If you are a good person, we can become friends, and I will naturally let you go. No third person will know about the IOU."
"After all, we're friends, and friends should help each other out."
"But if you're like Li Yongsen, a bad person..."
"Good person, I'll be your friend," Lei Meizhen blurted out.
"very good."
Gao Qiang walked up to her and looked at her.
Lei Meizhen glanced at it and then turned her head away.
Gao Qiang gripped her chin and gently turned it so she could look at him.
"You're a good person, so why won't you even call me 'Brother Qiang'?"
Gao Qiang's eyes and words exuded authority.
"Brother Qiang."
Lei Meizhen hesitated for a moment, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she was no longer as aloof as before, and said softly.
"very good."
Gao Qiang gently pinched her cheek, then unlocked the handcuffs and handed them back to her, adding:
"Now that we're friends, I'll help you solve any problems you have."
"A promotion and a raise are minor matters; I also hope you can bring me some useful information."
Lei Meizhen rubbed her little hands, which were red from being bound, and returned the favor by saying:
"You've made it onto the West Kowloon Police Station's silver list, and now I'm keeping a close eye on you."
Wouldn't that allow for collusion between officials and businessmen?
If I don't take the position, who will?
Hehehehehe~
Gao Qiang hummed in agreement and went back to the coffee table to eat.
Lei Meizhen went into the restroom, changed her clothes, and then quickly walked towards the door, about to burst out.
"Madam, you're leaving already? I haven't eaten the midnight snack I bought for you yet!"
"These were grown and caught by farmers and fishermen with great effort; we can't let them go to waste!"
A powerful, magnetic, and deep voice came through.
Lei Meizhen found it somewhat amusing, as if this man wasn't that dangerous.
Her feet moved uncontrollably back into the room, where she sat down at the coffee table and opened the late-night snack Gao Qiang had bought for her.
The taste is not bad.
"Madam, your lips look a little pale. You'd look great with red lipstick."
"Are you having any difficulties in your life or work? You can tell me about them."
Gao Qiang chatted with her like a friend.
She glanced at Gao Qiang, nodded, and continued eating the Typhoon Shelter-Style Fried Shrimp from her lunchbox without saying a word.
She's back to her usual mature and sophisticated self.
But she listened attentively to every word Gao Qiang said.
She found this man interesting and decided to investigate him thoroughly.
