The next day, Jiang Siming woke up in an oversized bed, only to find the beauty who had been beside him was gone.
Hearing the sound of a car starting downstairs, he got up and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window. He saw Wang Xinyi driving off to school in the limited edition pink Lexus he had given her.
This car was one Jiang Siming had won during a competition in London, and Wang Xinyi loved it.
Feeling a little reluctant to let his girlfriend go off to school just like that, Jiang Siming regretted not waking up earlier. If he had woken up sooner, maybe he could've held her close one more time.
After brushing his teeth and washing his face in the bathroom, he yawned and headed downstairs.
A fresh breakfast was warming in the kitchen. Jiang Siming took a bite, thinking about what to do during the day.
His live stream was in the evening, so he had complete freedom during the day.
Streaming all day would drive Jiang Siming crazy—it was too monotonous. Though games were fun, he couldn't play them nonstop.
He was considering whether to check out Yinghuan Finance or go on a date with Dai Xiaomei.
Just as he was contemplating, the doorbell rang.Curious, Jiang Siming went to the gate and opened it, only to find Li Shengxue standing at the door in a police uniform.
"Officer Li, what brings you here?" Jiang Siming asked with interest.
Li Shengxue blushed slightly and said, "I just got assigned to this area today. I remembered that you live around here, so I wanted to stop by and see if this was the right place. I apologize if I'm disturbing you."
"No worries, you're gracing my humble abode with your presence. Come on in." Jiang Siming made a welcoming gesture.
Li Shengxue quickly shook her head, saying, "No need, I just came to say hi."
"Come on in; if you keep standing at the door, people will think the police are raiding my house," Jiang Siming said as he took her wrist and pulled her inside.
If anyone else had dared to grab her hand, she would've thrown them to the ground with a shoulder throw and an elbow strike.
But it was Jiang Siming, and oddly, she didn't feel resistant.
"Will I be disturbing anyone in your family?"
"Relax, I'm the only one home."
Hearing this, Li Shengxue felt a bit more at ease.
Jiang Siming invited her to sit in the living room and poured her a glass of juice.
"Aren't you part of the criminal investigation team? Why would you be on street patrol?" Jiang Siming asked, puzzled.
Li Shengxue smiled and replied, "Criminal investigators are still police officers. We can patrol the streets too. Besides, there aren't always criminal cases. When we don't have cases, we also handle regular duties."
"I see. That sounds tough. By the way, how's the Liao Fan case going?" Jiang Siming asked, remembering the matter.
"Liao Fan has been transferred to a detention center. Next week, he'll be handed over to the court. With all the evidence, he'll get a minimum sentence of three years," Li Shengxue replied.
"That's good to hear. Thank you, Officer Li," Jiang Siming said, clasping his hands in gratitude.
Li Shengxue smiled slightly and said, "I didn't do any favors. We police follow the evidence and don't let personal feelings interfere."
"Well said! Officer Li deserves some juice and a compliment as a reward." Jiang Siming refilled her glass with a smile.
Amused, Li Shengxue brushed a strand of hair behind her ear as if she suddenly remembered something.
"Mr. Jiang, I've been wanting to learn some moves from you. Do you happen to be free today?"
"Ah, you come to my house on your first visit and want to beat me up? That doesn't seem very nice," Jiang Siming replied, pretending to be scared.
Li Shengxue smiled brightly and said, "Mr. Jiang, you're misunderstanding. I just want to spar with you, not beat you up. If the uniform is intimidating, I can take it off."
With that, Li Shengxue undid the buttons of her uniform jacket and took it off.
Once the jacket was off, Jiang Siming realized she was more... "well-endowed" than he initially thought. Judging from the way her shirt fit, she was probably at least a D-cup!
And with her uniform and her confident demeanor, his heart skipped a beat.
"Is this more acceptable?" Li Shengxue asked, looking at Jiang Siming.
Seeing this, Jiang Siming knew he couldn't refuse. Might as well entertain this 'martial arts fanatic' policewoman.
"Just go easy on me, alright?"
"No problem, I'll stop at the right moment."
With Jiang Siming's agreement, Li Shengxue's cool and composed demeanor suddenly transformed, her eyes full of fighting spirit.
For ease of movement, Jiang Siming led her to the third-floor gym, which was spacious enough and wouldn't mess up their clothes.
"Mr. Jiang, are you really going to spar with me in that?" Li Shengxue asked, pointing to his bathrobe. He'd been wearing it since he opened the door.
"Wouldn't it be a little inappropriate if I took it off? I'm only wearing underwear underneath," Jiang Siming replied with a playful grin.
Li Shengxue, blushing and slightly annoyed, said, "I meant for you to change into something else."
"Oh, no need for that. I'll change afterward—it won't take long anyway," Jiang Siming replied nonchalantly.
Hearing this, Li Shengxue seemed a bit unhappy and said, "Jiang, it sounds like you're underestimating me. Well, I'll show you my skills! Here I come!"
Right after she finished speaking, Li Shengxue swiftly approached Jiang Siming, her hand shaped like a blade as she aimed a chop towards his shoulder.
Her movements were incredibly quick; an ordinary person would likely have been knocked out by now.
However, Jiang Siming casually stepped back as if he were taking a leisurely stroll and easily caught Li Shengxue's wrist mid-air.
"Your speed is good, but your strength could use some work," he remarked.
"That's because I wasn't using my full strength. Jiang, you'd better watch out—I'm serious now!" With that, Li Shengxue spun gracefully like a cat and turned back, aiming a sidekick at his chest, a gust of air following the movement!
Li Shengxue was confident that he wouldn't be able to counter this move; her sidekick was quite renowned back in the police academy.
Even if Jiang managed to block it, he would surely be left off balance, giving her an advantage.
Thud!
With a muffled sound, Li Shengxue's delicate ankle met Jiang Siming's palm in close contact, as both had removed their shoes before starting the spar. Enjoy new stories from empire
Jiang Siming caught her kick barehanded and seemed reluctant to let go of Li Shengxue's ankle.
She struggled a bit but couldn't break free, so she decided to take advantage of the situation, using her other leg as leverage to spring upward, targeting Jiang Siming's chest with a powerful punch.
Li Shengxue's punches weren't just for show; they packed more force than an average adult male's.
Her grandfather was a martial artist who taught her some secret breathing techniques, giving her this impressive strength over the years.
Her rapid punches caught Jiang Siming by surprise, yet he still didn't want to let go of her small foot.
Opting to take her punch head-on, Jiang Siming quickly pinned her fist against his chest with his right hand.
With a grip as strong as steel, he gently pulled her forward. Li Shengxue lost her balance with her hands and feet restrained, and she immediately fell into Jiang Siming's arms.
Seizing the moment, Jiang Siming decided to play along, pretending to lose his own balance and falling onto the carpet with her.
