Chapter 374 Ode to Joy 18
"Oh, I'm so angry! It was she who called the police to arrest me, not me who called the police to arrest her. Humph, I don't care about her! I'm busy fighting wits and courage with my brother now, how can I care about those mistresses?" Qu Xiaoxiao was unhappy, holding her hands in front of her chest, complaining angrily. Deep in her heart, she had already regarded Andy as Tan Zongming's lover, thinking that this was the only way to explain the bold way of attacking.
"By the way, what about the other one? How about the other female neighbor?" Qu Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered that there was another neighbor and hurriedly asked Yao Bin.
"Oh, this other one is not simple either! Her family background is not ordinary. Let me tell you, we only investigated part of the information this time, and we were almost discovered and caught. Her family are all from military backgrounds. Ordinary people like us should stay away from them and never provoke them. Moreover, I just got the news that she has been transferred to the Municipal Bureau, so you'd better not go looking for trouble with her for no reason, otherwise you will be in trouble!" Yao Bin said with lingering fear. He himself never expected that the identities of Qu Xiaoxiao's two neighbors were so special.
"I'm going to mess with her? You must be kidding! I'm not stupid, can't I see that she's not easy to mess with? How could someone with such a prominent family move here to live?" Qu Xiaoxiao's eyes widened, her face full of surprise. She originally thought that the people living in this community were all ordinary people, but she never expected to meet someone like Luo Yining who had an extraordinary background. Especially when she learned that the other party was now a policeman, her heart was full of surprise.
"Who knows? Maybe he just wants to come out and experience life. But then again, you'd better be more careful!" Yao Bin reminded seriously.
"Okay, okay, I know everything! You're so nagging!" Qu Xiaoxiao replied impatiently. Oh, this is really a big problem. I thought I could be free and unrestrained, but now I have to be nervous and pay attention to even replying 2202. This life is too hard!
As night fell and the lights came on, Luo Yining dragged her slightly tired body and slowly walked into the house. After a simple tidying up, she went straight to the bathroom to wash up.
Just as she was about to take a break, she suddenly heard Tuanzi's voice: "Ningning, this is bad! Qu Xiaoxiao actually sent someone to investigate you today!"
Luo Yining didn't seem too surprised when she heard this. She just frowned slightly and analyzed calmly: "From her usual behavior, it's not surprising that she would do this. People with her personality will often try their best to find out the details and identities of the people around them, so that they can better control the situation in the future and seek benefits for themselves."
At this time, Tuanzi was alone in the space, wandering around bored. He was heard mumbling and complaining: "Wuwuwu... Ningning, I'm so bored! Qingyang went to practice in seclusion again, leaving me alone. And you have to work hard every day, and there is no one to play with me."
Seeing Tuanzi's pitiful appearance, Luo Yining couldn't help but feel pity for him. She smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry, Tuanzi. How about I introduce you to something interesting that can help you kill time?"
When he heard that there was something fun, Tuanzi immediately became excited, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to ask: "Great! Great! What is it? Tell me quickly!"
Luo Yining just smiled mysteriously and uttered two words slowly: "Upgrade."
"Ningning, upgrading is not as easy as you think!" Tuanzi had been expecting to hear something shocking, but in the end, she found out that it was just a topic about upgrading. She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"Tuanzi, have you forgotten? The points from last time have been successfully recovered! Therefore, I specially give all these to you, so that you can upgrade smoothly. Not only that, you can also seriously consider participating in the eye-catching selection of the top 100 excellent systems!" Luo Yining explained with a smile.
"Wow, Ningning, you are so awesome! If things can really develop as you said, I will definitely become super handsome!" Tuanzi cheered excitedly. He knew very well that due to the problems caused by the previous mistake, if he wanted to use the points in the future, he must first obtain the host's consent.
However, if it can be successfully upgraded this time, it will be completely different! By then, it will not only become more outstanding and intelligent, but it will also have enough strength to participate in the competitions mentioned by the host! Thinking of this, Tuanzi danced with joy and kept muttering: "This is really great, I can provide more powerful assistance to Ningning when performing tasks in the future!"
"Oh, you guy, you only think about becoming handsome all day long!" Luo Yining shook her head helplessly, expressing her deep admiration for Tuanzi's idea. She never expected that even after going through so many things, Tuanzi remained the same.
On this sunny day, Luo Yining welcomed a relaxing weekend. Since she had no important matters to attend to today, she went out for a run in the early morning in her sportswear. After finishing her morning run, Luo Yining went to a nearby store to buy some snacks and vegetables.
However, what she didn't expect was that she ran into Qu Xiaoxiao, Qiu Yingying, Fan Shengmei, Guan Juer and others who were laughing and playing on the way home. Luo Yining greeted them politely with a smile on her face. But at this moment, a scene that caught her off guard happened - Qiu Yingying, who was chasing Qu Xiaoxiao, turned around and suddenly hugged Luo Yining! It turned out that the cunning Qu Xiaoxiao flexibly dodged Qiu Yingying's "attack", and poor Luo Yining became a substitute.
Faced with this sudden hug, Luo Yining was stunned for a moment, secretly complaining in her heart. She was really not used to such close contact with strangers, but fortunately Qiu Yingying quickly realized that she had hugged the wrong person and seemed a little embarrassed. After all, she was not too familiar with this new neighbor who lived in 2204.
Seeing this, Qu Xiaoxiao on the side couldn't help but teasing Qiu Yingying: "Oh my, look at this woman in love, she is really scary." She was obviously quite uncomfortable with this overly intimate behavior.
Qiu Yingying blushed and quickly loosened her hands, explaining apologetically: "I'm so sorry, I'm Qiu Yingying who lives in 2202, and we just met yesterday. I wasn't paying attention just now and mistook you for Qu Xiaoxiao." After saying that, she lowered her head shyly.
Luo Yining smiled generously, indicating that she didn't care, and responded: "It's okay, my name is Luo Yining, we are neighbors from now on, please take care of each other."
"This is Fan Shengmei, this is Guan Juer, and the one over there is Qu Xiaoxiao! They all live on the 22nd floor. Qu Xiaoxiao is the owner of 2203, and the three of us are tenants of 2202." Qiu Yingying introduced them while secretly observing Luo Yining's reaction. Seeing that her attitude was quite friendly, she breathed a sigh of relief, and her mood became relaxed and happy, and she opened up her chatterbox.
"Hehe, actually Yining and I have known each other before. We even said hello to each other last time." At this time, Qu Xiaoxiao took over the conversation and winked at Luo Yining playfully. Luo Yining did not say much in response to Qu Xiaoxiao's move to get closer to her, but just smiled slightly.
Then, everyone walked into the apartment building together. When they came to the elevator and waited, Qu Xiaoxiao suddenly said mysteriously: "Hey, let me tell you a super exciting news, do you want to hear it?" As soon as the voice fell, Qiu Yingying immediately responded impatiently: "What news? Tell me quickly!"
Fan Shengmei glanced helplessly at the innocent Qiu Yingying and shook her head gently, as if she was a little speechless about her curiosity about everything. However, Luo Yining remained silent and stood quietly by the side, with no expression on her face.
"Do you remember the resident of Room 2201 who called the police the day before yesterday?" Qu Xiaoxiao didn't care as long as someone listened.
"Wow! That's so cool, it's hard not to remember it!" Qiu Yingying shouted excitedly. However, Guan Juer frowned slightly, secretly feeling that something was not right.
"Just yesterday, I saw her in the basement. Wow, she was driving a Porsche 911, and it was a top-of-the-line version! To be able to afford such a luxury car and live in our neighborhood, who would believe that she doesn't have some background?" Qu Xiaoxiao described it vividly, with curiosity and inquiry in her eyes.
When Qiu Yingying heard this, she was about to interrupt with her mouth wide open, as if she had a lot of questions to ask. But before she knew it, Guan Juer quickly grabbed Qiu Yingying. Guan Juer thought to herself that after all, everyone was not familiar with this woman, and it was not appropriate to discuss other people's private affairs like this. Besides, she couldn't figure out what Qu Xiaoxiao meant by this.
Luo Yining, who was standing not far away, saw all of this. She could not help but nod secretly and admired Guan Juer's behavior. In her opinion, Guan Juer was not only well-educated, but also kind-hearted. In contrast, although Qiu Yingying was also a good person, she was not clear-headed sometimes and was easily influenced by others and lost her own judgment.
"Hehe, I had an idea at that time, so I took a picture of the license plate of the car. Then I asked my friend to help check it out, and guess what? The car was not in her name at all! The real owner is a big shot in the business world! Tsk tsk tsk tsk, everyone, think about it, is there some shameful trick here?" Qu Xiaoxiao became more and more excited as she spoke, with a mysterious expression on her face.
"What's the trick?" As expected, when everyone was silent, only Qiu Yingying couldn't suppress her burning curiosity and asked impatiently.
Fan Shengmei was extremely helpless and speechless about Xiaoqiu's straightforward character. Everyone was not sure what had happened, but if you think about what Qu Xiaoxiao had just said, the deep meaning was self-evident.
"Oh, you don't even understand this, are you stupid? A man gives his car to a woman to drive for no reason, then this woman is most likely his mistress! Otherwise, how could she be so arrogant and domineering that she even dares to call the police." Qu Xiaoxiao explained with a beaming eyebrow.
Luo Yining couldn't stand it any longer and said, "You keep making accusations like this, but do you have any solid evidence? If not, this is undoubtedly malicious slander against others! Besides, investigating others without permission is a serious violation of others' privacy rights!"
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Qu Xiaoxiao not only did not take it seriously, but sneered with disdain: "Humph, what evidence do you need? Women like her who play the role of mistresses will be chased and beaten by everyone if they are caught by people!" Although Qu Xiaoxiao knew that Luo Yining was a police officer, she always believed that there was nothing wrong with what she did.
However, she didn't notice that the elevator door behind her was slowly opening, and Andy was standing quietly in the elevator.
For a moment, everyone present was stunned, with a mixture of astonishment and embarrassment on their faces. Who could have thought that while they were discussing it behind their backs, the person involved would suddenly show up without any warning. This was really too embarrassing.
Qu Xiaoxiao was also stunned at first, seeing that everyone was standing there like wooden stakes, without any reaction. So, she turned her head in confusion and looked behind her, and saw Andy with an expressionless face. In an instant, she couldn't help but feel guilty, but soon this guilt was replaced by a forced calmness - after all, even the mistress was fearless, so why should she be afraid?
Luo Yining was the first to step into the elevator, and then stood quietly beside Andy. As the elevator slowly rose, a suffocating silence enveloped everyone, as if time had frozen, and no one broke the tranquility.
However, unexpectedly, it was Qu Xiaoxiao who broke the silence first. She raised her lips slightly, revealing a sly smile, and said suddenly: "Don't pretend nothing happened. You clearly heard me mention you just now, right?"
Andy, however, remained motionless like a sculpture, even his eyes did not fluctuate in the slightest.
