The Bigshot Vixen Wants Me

Chapter 11: Special duty



Qi Yan sighed in frustration as he stared at the board in front of him. For the past few days, he had locked himself up in his apartment, attempting to decipher Sui An's motives regarding Feng Tian.

By the time he went back to the site of the abandoned barn with Gu Jinyan, he was met with an unsettling sight – the room had been meticulously cleared, like the incident had not taken place at all, leaving his investigation at an impasse. And learning of the fact that any traces of Sui An had completely vanished, deepen his concerns.

Remembering it was his first day as an officer on special duty, he quickly grab his phone to call Xiaorui who had decided to tag along before exiting his apartment.

On getting to Feng Tian's apartment, Qi Yan and Xiaorui stood by his car as they awaited her arrival.

While they wait, Xiaorui could not help but marvel at the sight of the apartment building which stood tall and modern, with a sleek and impressive facade, the architecture exuding contemporary elegance.

And the moment Feng Tian stepped out of her apartment, Qi Yan froze, his gaze tracing every step she took towards him.

"Good morning," Feng Tian greeted with a smile.

"Morning," He replied and cleared his throat. Smiling as they engaged in an unintentional staring contest before Xiaorui's cheerful interruption.

"Good morning, Miss Feng."

"Oh, officer Yang!"

Taken back, she could only stare at him as he dramatically raises his hand to salute her.

"Reporting for voluntary special duty, I'm Yang Xiaorui also known as Lovely Xiaorui, average in height and as you can see, skinny with a girlish look, but also the youngest member in the criminal investigation department; don't ask how I passed the enrollment examination, my father is the Chief Justice.

Hobbies: Reading, having lots of fun, unlike someone, playing video games, and writing comics."

Feng Tian chuckled in disbelief as she listens to Xiaorui who continue to ramble before taking a deep breath.

"But, aren't you busy?" She asked,

"Oh, I lost my handcuffs and the chief suspended me, so even though my senior will be protecting you, I will be assisting him by protecting you from him because he's no fun," Xiaorui said, immediately earning himself a glare from Qi yan who cleared his throat in protest.

"Miss, we should head out," Li Wei said, nodding slightly to Qi Yan and Xiaorui who cheerfully wave at him.

"You guys go ahead without me, I will ride with Detective Qi," Feng Tian said to Li Wei, who nodded before making his way towards the car. Immediately Feng Tian turn to face Qi Yan,

"Shall we?"

Throughout the ride to the company, Feng Tian couldn't contain her laughter as Xiaorui humorously poked fun at Qi Yan. They arrived at the company approximately thirty minutes later, and Xiaorui was struck by the grandeur of the tall building before him. Upon entering the building, they were met with the hushed whispers of employees who were curious about Qi Yan and Xiaorui. Even though Qi Yan was dressed casually, he still stood out.

Upon reaching the top floor, Feng Tian's gaze fell upon Huang Zhenjun and his assistant who despite the assistant's attempt to alert him of Feng Tian's presence, stubbornly refused to acknowledge her as they proceeded towards the next elevator.

Feng Tian snorts as she watches the elevator close,

"For an old man, he sure knows how to hold a grudge." Feng Tian mumbled as she made her way toward her office.

On getting to her office, she was immediately bombarded with loads of documents to sign and review. Sighing, she immediately ordered Li Wei to make arrangements for Qi Yan and Xiaorui before beginning her day.

It was almost noon when Feng Tian eventually lifted her eyes away from her laptop, looking outside the door, Feng Tian's eyes landed on Qi Yan who seemed to have landed himself in an awkward predicament. A group of cleaning staff surrounded him, vying for his attention, and the scene was turning uncomfortable.

"Well, who told you to be so good-looking," Feng Tian said as she watched the ladies from the cleaning department continue to fight over him amidst themselves. Deciding to save him from torture, she immediately picks up her phone and order for him to be brought to her office.

On getting to Feng Tian's office Qi Yan could not help as his eye sight as they wandered across the spacious and meticulously designed workspace which was adorned with elegant furnishings, including a grand wooden desk that served as the centerpiece of the office and large windows that offered an impressive view of the city skyline, which added to the room's grandeur.

"Detective Qi, may I ask what you are doing with those poor ladies?" Feng Tian said trying hard to hide her smile,

"Don't ask," Qi Yan replied,

"I don't see Xiaorui anywhere," Feng Tian said as she made her way towards her long rolls of bookshelf lined with leather-bound volumes.

"He's in the lobby, gathering information about you."

Qi Yan smirked as he stares at Feng Tian who was struggling to reach for a book at the top of the bookshelf. Even in high heels, she still could not reach it,

"Let me do it," Qi Yan said as he moves to stand behind her, Lightly pressing her hands down as he pulled out the book. Feng Tian froze as she felt his presence behind her,

"Here," Qi Yan muttered, slowly handing her the book as he also felt heat crawl up his neck on noticing the blush on her face. They didn't even notice that someone had joined them in the room until he awkwardly cleared his throat,

"Umm… someone is here to see you," Li Wei said, quickly detaching himself from her, Qi Yan lightly coughed before exiting her office.

"Mr Ye, what can I do for you?" Feng Tian said as she return to her seat,

"Miss Feng, it's about Samuel," Ye Shouyi said as he handed her a file,

"Samuel?" Feng Tian said as she raises a brow,

"Yes, he will be coming to China in the next few days, and for our next project, I think it will be really beneficial if we can have his support."

"But, Mr Ye, why is it that you are the one telling me this?"

"Well… I told Mr Bo, but he was against the idea because, well, Samuel is a very difficult man to please, but that should not deter us from trying."

"Then Mr Ye, what do you think? Can you prepare the presentation?"

"W-what!" Ye Shouyi exclaimed as he slowly adjusted his glasses, "Miss Feng, I don't think…"

"Why, you can't do it, it was your idea, so I want you to make a presentation that will blow Samuel's mind."

"B-but…"

"Well, if you can't do it then maybe we should forget about it then, it's just that we both know that this is a great opportunity…"

"No, I can do it!" Ye Shouyi said,

"Then I will be counting on you." Feng Tian said before signing on the file.

"Thank you, Miss Feng, I will work really hard, I will not disappoint you." Ye Shouyi said as he made his way towards the door.

"Do you think he can do it?" Li Wei asked immediately after Ye Shouyi exited the office, Feng Tian smiled,

"What's my next appointment?"

"We will be paying a visit to the construction site, by 3 pm."

"Alright, prepare to leave and make necessary arrangements for Mr Ye, he will need all the help he can get."

Qi Yan was already waiting by the car by the time Feng Tian got out of the company, both of them refusing to look into each other's eyes as they recall the event that happened earlier,

"Is Xiaorui not coming?" Feng Tian asked as she watched Qi Yan pull the car door open,

"He will be joining Mr Li from now on, he talks too much," Qi Yan said before starting the car.

The ride to the construction site was awfully quiet, both of them contemplating on what to say; The silence was eventually broken by the grumbling sound of Feng Tian's stomach. Lightly turning towards her, Qi Yan smirked as he watches her cheek redden in embarrassment before pulling the car to a stop,

"What! Why did you stop?" Feng Tian asked.

"Miss Feng, how do want your employees to feel if they find out you've been skipping your meals, I'm pretty sure they won't be grateful and start worshiping you because they don't miss their meals," Qi Yan said before stepping out of the car,

"Come on, you should eat something,"

"I'm not hungry," Feng Tian muttered and immediately her stomach grumbled again in protest.

"Well, your stomach thinks otherwise," Qi Yan said before pulling her out of the car.

On entering the diner, they were immediately escorted to their seat by a waitress,

"Welcome, Mr, you and your girlfriend have been chosen as the lucky winner for the couple's event going on, congratulations."
