From what Liu Yanbo understood, the mothers-in-law were extremely contradictory beings that are difficult to understand.
There were times where the mother-in-law looked at the son-in-law and smiled, smiling more and more as she looked on at him.
But also during bad times, it was where the mother-in-law could take the girl’s hand and drag her away, all the while gritting her teeth.
Liu Yanbo once had a colleague who was hopelessly manipulated by his future mother-in-law. He was urged to buy a house he could barely afford and also a good car. If the total amount of money spent was less than 200.000 yuan, he would not be allowed to marry her daughter.
Of course, Yin Hanruo's family did not lack things like houses or cars, but that also meant that their request could be even more demanding than that.
Liu Yanbo leaned into the taxi seat and looked at himself, feeling a bit bitter. “Ah ~” With a long sigh, he threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and started the car, helplessly saying, "I should at least buy some decent clothes!"
Liu Yanbo really did need to buy a decent set of clothes. If he came back wearing his work uniform that had the words “Taxi Driver” printed on, it would probably make his mother-in-law want to instantly kick him out of the house.
Regardless of whether or not he looked up to Yin Hanruo’s parents or not, this was the most basic respect.
Family is family, work is work, it was important to distinguish them clearly.
And after all, Liu Yanbo had never seen someone meet their mother-in-law for the first time in uniform.
Every day Liu Yanbo would head to work and leave, always wearing his work uniform.
It was not that he didn’t have any other clothes to wear, he just didn't want the bother of having to change it. In fact, there were two pieces of clothes in his closet that was far more superior than his work uniform. They were the two luxury brand suits Yin Hanruo had bought for Liu Yanbo.
But Liu Yanbo hadn’t even tried them once, for no special reason, just because he didn’t like suits.
Liu Yanbo reluctantly started driving the taxi and merged into the vast traffic...
…
Pan Yuyi was a restless person. She couldn’t wait to catch criminals every day so that she could show her force and prove that she wasn’t just a doll benefited by nepotism.
For this reason, she had just been scolded by her head boss again.
A pickpocket, a petty thief, was stunned by her and passed out before being arrested.
Three days later, the reputation of violent police had started to spread.
Sitting on the chair, Pan Yuyi was huffing and puffing, and this magnificent wavelike movement made the deputy detachment commander Zhou Ming drool.
“Yuyi, don't take this the wrong way, but you really need to keep your anger in check. Otherwise, if you really lose it and beat someone up badly, it’ll cause trouble for Mr. Uncle.”
Pan Yuyi took the position of captain at the age of 26. Naturally, she had some abilities. But they were not enough to make her particularly outstanding.
Pan Yangming, the leader of the city’s Municipal Public Security Bureau, was her father.
"What trouble can I cause? Is it wrong for me to fight crime?" Pan Yuyi wasn’t convinced. Suddenly, Pan Yuyi turned and saw Zhou Ming staring at her chest, frowned, and glared at him: "Where are your eyes aiming at! I’m in a very bad mood right now. Do you think I can’t end you right now?"
"Heh," Zhou Ming smirked and looked away with reluctance. He said, "I didn't say you were wrong. I was just suggesting for you to lessen the ‘strength’ when fighting crime."
"You want me to be gentle with them?" Pan Yuyi didn't intend to change at all. She said indignantly, "when dealing with criminals, they should be frightened at once. See if they dare try not to be good people in the future."
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Pan Yuyi violently hit the table making a loud ‘bang!’.
"Yuyi, no matter what you do, I’ll always support you unconditionally " Zhou Ming poured a glass of water and smiled widely. "Come on, drink some water to calm down."
Pan Yuyi pretended that she didn’t hear Zhou Ming's declaration, and without making any comments, she silently accepted the glass of water.
Zhou Ming laughed joyfully and decided to strike, "Yuyi, how about we have dinner together after work? I heard that the steak from the newly opened western restaurant was very good."
Zhou Ming fancied Pan Yuyi. The entire public security system knew about it.
The Zhou and Pan families were longtime friends. Zhou Ming had always wanted to take this relationship to a higher level.
Otherwise, with his philosophy of life, how could he pursue such a hard job as a criminal investigation, if not to fight for a woman.
The man was deeply affectionate, but for naught.
Pan Yuyi didn’t even consider it, and directly refused: “No thanks.” Not willing to give even just one reason.
Zhou Ming wasn’t disappointed or unhappy, probably because he had already gotten rejected too many times, his heart was full of perseverance: "Then how about we go to the movies? I have two ti-"
‘TOC TOC~’
The knocking on the door interrupted Zhou Ming.
"Captain, we received a report of a robbery on Yongxin Street." A little police officer anxiously rushed into the office, not noticing the deathly glare from the deputy.
Upon hearing about the case, Pan Yuyi stood up suddenly, and with a wave of her hand, she said with pride, "Let’s go! Follow me."
"Yuyi, wait for me..." Zhou Ming hurriedly chased after and landed a kick on the ignorant police officer’s butt as he passed by.
The little police officer touched his head, in a daze, and patted his butt.
"Captain, the director asked you to call the SWAT team..."
Yongxin Street was one of the main commercial streets in the city, with many banks and large jewelry stores.
The robbery happened in a jewelry store. It was armed and in broad daylight, but it didn’t cause much confusion.
Many passers-by stopped to watch and take pictures. Some who were far away even went to surrounding shops for binoculars.
Without a doubt, the quality of the Chinese people's hearts was really excellent.
There were three robbers, all masked, wearing gloves, big sized shoes, and big sized clothes that were tightly tied, all of which didn’t affect their mobility at all.
Two robbers were watching the hostages and one was holding a big backpack.
A police car was parked on the street and two police officers hid behind it, holding their guns.
"Brother, what now?" the robber with the backpack asked the eldest one.
The eldest brother was quite fat.
"I didn't expect a police car to pass by." The fat robber turned to look behind him. "Brother, what now?"
The third robber was very thin.
The masks only revealed their eyes, mouths, and noses.
The thin robber's eyes gleamed. He was the smartest of the three. After a moment, he said in a deep voice, "we should get out of here quick before the SWAT team comes, otherwise we’ll be in trouble."
As he said that, a siren sounded nearby.
The SWAT was already there, it was too late to try running away. The skinny robber rushed out of the jewelry store with his gun against a hostage.
"Don't you dare try anything! Or I’ll kill her in an instant!" The thin robber shouted to the two policemen.
"Boss, one of the hostages is a taxi driver, his car should be near! We should get in his car."
"Why don't we get in our own car?" The robber with the backpack was confused.
"The wheels of our car have been punctured by the two damn policemen." The thin robber had put himself in danger, but the situation was still under his control.
"Tell us where your car is right now!" The fat robber put a gun to the taxi driver’s head.
This taxi driver was none other than Liu Yanbo. He tightly clutched his bag, which had his newly-bought clothes from the men's clothing store next door.
"It's there." Liu Yanbo pointed at the taxi, which was only a few steps away, and seemed terrified. "Brother, take it easy, I'll take you there."
"GO!"
When they arrived in the car, the thin robber shouted, "You drive!"
"Brother, look at how my hands are shaking, how can I still drive like this?" Liu Yanbo extended his hands. "What if I hit the wall?"
"I told you to drive so you drive! If any more nonsense comes out of that mouth, I’ll let you taste what a bullet to the head feels like! The thin robber threatened fiercely. He forced the woman inside the car as well.
Maybe because she saw the SWAT team was coming and not too far away, it gave her hope.
Or maybe because she felt that the farther away from the police she was, the less her chances of survival.
The woman held hostage suddenly became very nervous and refused to get in the car. She desperately shouted: “Help! Someone, please save me...”
Her voice was sad and resounded throughout the street. The streets were blocked by vehicles and crowds of people, the police had no choice but to abandon their car and ran.
The crowd from afar was indifferent, some took out their mobile phones to take pictures of her.
“Smell my feet, F******s…”
"Don’t shoot! Don't kill unless you have to." The skinny robber stopped the backpack robber who was about to shoot. "Don't worry about her, let's go."
After all, the thin robber kicked the woman hard and she fell to the ground.
‘BANG!’
The woman was shot in the thigh and blood was flowing.
The severe pain and mental shock made her unable to scream and she passed out.
"Big brothers, there are police in front, what should I do?" Liu Yanbo's hand was still trembling, and he failed to put the car key in three times before it was inserted.
"Charge at them!" The thin robber was ruthless.
"Ok." Liu Yanbo started the car. "Big brother, get ready."
As soon as the car started, his hands stopped shaking, and his face didn't look scared anymore.
Like an arrow off the string, the taxi went with full force.
‘BOOM!’
‘BANG!’
The loud crash was accompanied by a gunshot.
It wasn't the police who was hit, it was a spherical roadblock made of cement and stone.
The taxi crashed and flew, turned over in the air, and hit the ground hard.
The fat robber in the passenger seat was thrown out by the huge impact and laid motionless on the ground.
"Don't move!" A large group of policemen surrounded the deformed taxi, aiming their gun’s muzzles to the windows.
"Uncle policeman, take it easy." Liu Yanbo raised his hands and grinned.
"Just a car accident~."
