CHAPTER 85: CHAPTER 80 **POLICE FLOWER**

Tong Tong glanced at Xiao Lin and uncharacteristically retorted, "Dr. Xiao, you can park in front of the bank. Didn’t you see all the cars parked there?" It must have taken Tong Tong a lot of courage to say that.

Xiao Lin barely managed to stop the car. How did this woman suddenly become so brave? So daring to speak out? She exposed his lie in an instant. Fine, since you’re insistent on repaying the money, I’ll take it.

From Tong Tong’s decision, Xiao Lin knew that this girl was outwardly gentle but firm inside. Once she decided on something, she would execute it. For people like her, the best approach is to respect her decision. Besides, Xiao Lin didn’t want Tong Tong to think he was someone who looked down on her poverty, someone who didn’t know how to respect others.

"My parking skills aren’t great, but I’ll give it a try!" Xiao Lin rarely told a lie, and although it wasn’t his first, lying in front of such an innocent girl made his face feel a bit hot.

This time, Tong Tong seemed to have learned her lesson. It was unclear if she genuinely believed him or was saving face for Xiao Lin. She softly said, "Then be careful, Dr. Xiao, don’t hit any of those fancy cars in front!" Tong Tong’s concept of cars stayed at the level of brand prices, and she wasn’t aware of their actual value. She figured if Dr. Xiao’s QQ car hit another car, they’d probably have to pay for it.

Xiao Lin naturally didn’t want to contradict himself. Although typically, in a parking spot like this, all Xiao Lin needed to do was turn the steering wheel and make a slight glide to park the car safely. However, because of his earlier lie, he had to make clumsy moves, taking nearly three minutes to park the car properly.

"Dr. Xiao, thank you. I’ll get the money and pay you back immediately!" After getting out of the car, Tong Tong turned around and said to Xiao Lin. Xiao Lin could only nod helplessly, saying, "There’s really no rush. Pay it back when you have the money!"

"Haha, Dr. Xiao, you’re such a joker. If I didn’t have the money now, how would I be able to withdraw it from the bank to give it to you?" Tong Tong smiled slightly, but in her heart, she was planning on how to manage her meal expenses for the remaining month and a half. Work-study? Never mind, there will always be a way. As long as she looks, she’s sure to find a job that suits her.

Not far away, a tall woman was wearing a light purple suit. Her upper body was donned with a white floral blouse, and the appropriately cut neckline revealed a hint of her delicate bosom. Her lower body was clad in this season’s most trendy pencil skirt, tightly wrapping her round hips. Her slender legs were encased in transparent glass stockings, and she wore a pair of light purple high heels, looking extraordinarily hot.

This woman was Officer Wu Shuang, who had ongoing minor conflicts with Xiao Lin. She had just joined the SWAT team yesterday and had already participated in a major operation at night, capturing over forty notorious Poison Dragon Gang members, including a major leader. She was busy until after four in the morning, so she was in an excellent mood, and the police team granted her a two-day leave.

In a good mood and also a beauty enthusiast, Chief Wu, despite her aspiration to be an outstanding officer, saw no conflict with her usual fiery dressing style. Once she got up, she wanted to go shopping, buy some things, and reward herself.

"Is it that guy again?" As Wu Shuang approached the bank entrance and saw the car parked out front, her good mood immediately hit rock bottom.

Remembering that ever since she’d known that guy, nothing good seemed to happen, Wu Shuang felt an inexplicable fury rise within her. But she was essentially angry with herself. Xiao Lin hadn’t violated any parking rules, and even if he had, she wasn’t a traffic cop anymore. She couldn’t discipline him.

Wu Shuang disdainfully spat in the direction of the car, lifted her head, and walked into the bank lobby. After a quick scan, she didn’t spot Xiao Lin. Feeling a bit unconvinced, Wu Shuang thought that since Xiao Lin had such influential friends, he wouldn’t just conduct affairs at the regular counter. He was likely upstairs in the VIP section. Without knowing why, Wu Shuang went directly to the second floor. She hadn’t thought about how she would react if she found Xiao Lin; she just felt that if she didn’t get rid of this pent-up frustration, it would eventually make her sick.

Naturally, Xiao Lin had seen Wu Shuang glance over here, and he noted her disdainful, even somewhat resentful expression, followed by her spitting gesture, all of which he found quite amusing. However, Wu Shuang’s current outfit made Xiao Lin’s eyes light up. He never imagined that this tiger-like woman could be so eye-catching when dressed up. Especially since Wu Shuang exercised daily, her body’s contours appeared more perfect than those of some beautiful women, with not a single flaw.

Of course, the only imperfection was Wu Shuang’s expression towards him, giving Xiao Lin the feeling of being shot while lying down. Watching Wu Shuang in her pencil skirt sway her hips with all kinds of charm as she walked into the bank lobby, Xiao Lin felt a sense of relief, fearing she might see his car and pull some kind of trick. That would have been disastrous.
