Chapter 1293 Linked Clouds
In Tsim Sha Tsui, the Pearl of the Pearl, Wai Yee and Leung Siu-Yau were sitting facing each other in a coffee shop.
"Wei Yi, have you really been on the battlefield?" Liang Xiaorou asked Wei Yi, who looked calm and collected, with a face full of curiosity.
“I did go to the battlefield. Six months before I graduated from university, I was deployed to the front lines in southern Xinjiang for rotation,” Wei Yi said.
"But aren't you in the navy? Why are you going to the battlefield in the south? And why are you joining the troops stationed in Mingzhu?" Liang Xiaorou asked.
“Back then, all military academy students had to go to the front lines to experience war; no one was exempt. As for joining the Mingzhu Garrison, it was because of my family's arrangement. After all, I had reached the limit in the Marine Corps and needed to make a transition!” Wei Yi said.
"So what do you think of me?" Liang Xiaorou felt her face turn as red as if it had been steamed when she said this.
"You? You're alright, of course, except for being a bit too self-centered, you're pretty good!" Wei Yi said with a smile.
"Too self-centered?" Liang Xiaorou asked, puzzled.
"You're a very confident person, so you often stick to your own opinions and don't easily listen to others. That's why you're prone to being taken advantage of, and you find it difficult to get along with colleagues or friends!" Wei Yi said with a smile.
Wei Yi's words surprised Liang Xiaorou, because she realized that Wei Yi was right. She really didn't have many friends. Even if she did have friends, they were older people with more social experience who were willing to befriend her.
People who have experienced the harsh realities of society don't just look at the surface of things; they often see more than what's on the surface.
Liang Xiaorou is quite direct and doesn't speak very politely, so most people simply can't accept a friend like that.
"You're right. Do you think it'll be tiring to be with me?" Liang Xiaorou asked curiously.
"Hehe, not really. After all, we haven't spent much time together yet. Although I can see some flaws in your personality, everyone has problems. If two people can tolerate each other's shortcomings, that's the way to stay together for a long time!" Wei Yi said.
"So you're saying you're willing to tolerate my flaws?" Liang Xiaorou said with a bright smile.
“That’s fine. We’ve only just met. Not only do you have many shortcomings, but I also have many shortcomings. We can get to know each other slowly in the future!” Wei Yi said with a smile.
“But you can’t take vacations often now!” Liang Xiaorou thought of Wei Yi’s job and suddenly felt a little anxious.
In fact, it has only been a week since the two met. In these few days, Liang Xiaorou has become very fond of Wei Yi's special temperament. She has gone from resisting at the beginning to actively wanting to understand and get to know Wei Yi. Only Liang Xiaorou herself knows the emotional journey she has gone through.
“Hehe, that’s one of my shortcomings, and something I hope you’ll consider carefully. We’re all wearing this uniform, so our duty is to protect our country. As a military wife, you have a lot to bear. Although I can’t come out often, we still have time during holidays,” Wei Yi said with a smile.
“Alright then, let’s get to know each other first. I feel like you’re a good match for me. I’m usually very busy with work, and in my opinion, since I’m wearing a police uniform, I have responsibilities!” Liang Xiaorou said.
“Alright, let’s keep in touch! I happen to have two hours left today, how about I treat you to a movie?” Wei Yi said with a smile.
“No problem, there’s a new comedy movie coming out today, let’s go check it out together!” Liang Xiaorou said with a smile.
So the two left the coffee shop and headed towards the movie theater. Walking beside Wei Yi, Liang Xiaorou couldn't help but be captivated by Wei Yi's tall, imposing figure and powerful stride.
"Hey, stop right there!" Just then, a loud shout came from the alley next door, and Wei Yi and Liang Xiaorou looked over curiously.
A man was seen slowly moving out of the alley, holding a woman hostage. Several other men, armed with machetes, were slowly approaching from the opposite side, especially the leader, who was carrying a shotgun.
"Tang Jun, you tell your henchmen to leave right now, or I'll kill your girl!" Lei Wei shouted as he slowly retreated, holding Chili hostage.
"Lei Wei, you'd better give up resisting and come back to the gang with us to accept punishment. Maybe we can give you a quick death out of consideration for our fellow gang members. Otherwise, I guarantee you will die a painful death!" Tang Jun looked at his woman being held hostage. It would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous, but he couldn't afford to be soft-hearted now.
As a leader of the Hung Hing triad, Lei Wei has violated the triad rules by betraying his brothers and selling heroin. If he cannot be arrested and brought back today, Lei Wei will have no face to continue sitting in his position as leader.
"Tang Jun, do you think I'm a three-year-old? I've been out in the world since I was thirteen. What haven't I seen all these years? You're willing to risk your lives for the Jiang family, but I'm not. Why wouldn't I fight for it if I had the chance? I was just unlucky enough to get caught! Don't pretend to be a good guy here. All I want to do now is leave Mingzhu and run away. Don't force me!" Lei Wei was covered in sweat, and his voice was full of fear.
"Lei Wei, you can't escape. Just surrender! I, Big Shrimp, guarantee you'll have a whole corpse!" Big Shrimp said to Lei Wei, holding a shotgun.
"Police! That man, release the hostage you're holding right now!" Liang Xiaorou drew her sidearm and aimed it at Lei Wei.
Lei Wei never expected to run into the police here. With pursuers in front and tigers behind, Lei Wei felt that he was having the worst luck today!
After finally managing to bring the drugs from the Golden Triangle ashore, they were seized by the police. During the meeting that night, he confronted Jiang Tiansheng, but unexpectedly, that bastard in the building threw the evidence of his drug trafficking on the conference table in the main building.
He barely managed to break out of the Hung Hing headquarters with the help of two of his men, and immediately hijacked Chili, who was waiting in a car outside for Tang Jun to finish his meeting. However, the car ran out of gas in Tsim Sha Tsui, so he had no choice but to flee towards the bustling city center with Chili as his hostage.
In the end, he was still caught up by those two bastards, Tang Jun and Da Xia, in this alley.
The police behind him could shoot at any moment, and if Da Xia and Tang Jun caught him, he would not only have to endure three cuts and six holes, but also have his limbs broken and beg like a dog on the streets of Mingzhu.
As the Mong Kok branch leader of Hung Hing, Lei Wei absolutely refused to become like that, so he turned the chili pepper over and the two of them faced Leung Siu-yau.
"You stinking cop, get out of the way! Can't you see I have a hostage? If you don't want to get a complaint, get out of the way!" Lei Wei said angrily to Liang Xiaorou.
