Lin Minjun was also curious, so she subconsciously looked over there. She saw the bald uncle who had just spoken back away from the thief with his hands raised. He smiled and said, "I'm sorry, police officer. I used too much force. I was just too angry. This thief is so hateful. He once stole the candy I bought for you."

Lin Minjun understood all at once. She was shocked when she saw the thief's face was bruised and swollen, and thought that Yan Lige had accidentally injured him when he was catching him.

Now it seems that the crowd had been secretly beating the thief to vent their anger after seeing him being caught.

Most of the people gathered here are residents living near the cinema, who often come here to watch movies. They are the ones most frequently visited by thieves. It can be said that people's anger was aroused all of a sudden, and they kicked and spit at the thieves. This is human nature, after all, everyone hates thieves.

But being human doesn't mean it's right, and lynching is not acceptable.

While they were talking, Lin Minjun saw several people surrounding the thief stretching out their feet to kick him. Their strength was not very strong, but with each kicking him, it was entirely possible that they could kick him to death.

Yan Li obviously saw it, and he couldn't just let it go on like this, so he said, "You don't need to send the banner, this happens to be the jurisdiction of our police station, I will send the thief to the police station first, he is a habitual offender, comrade, you are the owner, you also have to go to the police station with me to report the case."

Huang Lixia was so happy that she didn't even know her own name and nodded quickly.

Yan Li walked over and grabbed the thief. When the thief saw him, he screamed, "Public Security Comrade, please take me to the police station quickly. If I stay here any longer, I'm afraid I'll be beaten to death."

"Bah, you deserve it!"

"You are a thief, but I won't kill you."

As he was talking, Yan Li pushed him away. A group of people followed behind to watch the excitement, and Lin Minjun walked behind the crowd.

When she arrived at the police station, Lin Minjun simply did not go in and stood under the tree of the police station waiting.

I don't know how long I waited, it started to drizzle again, and still no one came out. Moreover, I could hear a noisy sound from far away. It seemed that a lot of things were found on the thief, and someone recognized on the spot that they were their own lost things, so there was another commotion. Huang Lixia was also shouting that she wanted to give a banner to the public security comrade to win honor for him.

Lin Minjun waited outside for a while. There was still noise inside and Yan Lige didn't come out. She looked up at the sky, but said nothing in the end. She turned around and walked towards home. She didn't ride a bike today. The road was wet after the rain. Every time she stepped on it, the heel of her sandals would sink in, making it difficult for her to walk.

Lin Minjun couldn't explain how she felt right now. She had clearly gone out to watch a movie with her boyfriend who was on vacation today, but halfway through the movie, they caught a thief, so her boyfriend became busy and had no energy to pay attention to her. She walked home alone, feeling very lonely.

This reminded Lin Minjun of her previous life. She had just arrived in the capital and had just been married to Lu Deping for not long. She was not familiar with the capital and usually did not dare to go out for fear of getting lost, so she stayed at home.

Finally, Lu Deping found some free time one day, and the two of them agreed to have dinner at Lao Mo's restaurant. Just after they ordered, the dishes had not yet arrived when Lu Deping received a message, went out to make a call on a public phone, and left. He never came back, leaving Lin Minjun alone in the restaurant. When he came back in the evening, he said very embarrassedly that the factory had received a big order and forgot Lin Minjun in the restaurant.

Lin Minjun had a big argument with him at the time, and Lu Deping got so angry that he asked, "What do you want? I'm not making money, I'm not working on my career, and I'm going to have dinner with you?"

Lin Minjun was speechless at the time. Actually, she didn't have to eat this meal. She just thought that he couldn't tell her before leaving? He didn't even have time to say a word? She thought something had happened and waited in the restaurant until it closed.

From then on, she knew that career, work, and honor were more important than her.

Just like now, Lin Minjun was not angry with Yan Li, but she felt a little disappointed.

Just a little bit.

Lin Minjun was walking forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Suddenly, there was a bump on the road and her heel sank into it. She couldn't pull her heel out, and she exerted too much force and almost fell to the ground.

"Be careful, are you okay?" Yan Li's voice rang in his ears, and he put his hand on Lin Minjun's arm and made her stand at attention.

Lin Minjun turned around and asked, "Why are you out? Have you finished your work inside?"

Yan Li frowned slightly, a little surprised: "This is not my case, I just passed by to help, handed it over to my colleague and left."

He said helplessly: "Huang Lixia said she wanted to send me a banner, and it was a fuss for a while."

"Oh." Lin Minjun didn't know what to say, she uttered "oh" and said, "Then let's go back first. The rain is going to get heavy soon. Be careful not to get wet or you'll get sick tomorrow."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a snap, and Yan Li held up an umbrella and covered her securely under it.

The two of them walked side by side. They couldn't go home directly at this time because their bicycles were still in the cinema. They had to walk to the cinema to get the bicycles.

After walking for a while, Yan Li asked, "I didn't see anyone when I came out of the police station just now, but I knew you were gone. Why did you leave by yourself?"

When Lin Minjun mentioned this, she paused, "I thought you would stay there and wait for Huang Lixia to give you the banner. I thought it would be very late because of the noise, so I left first."

Yan Li: "If I was busy until late, I would definitely come out to tell you, or take you in first, or send you back, why would I leave you alone at the door?"

Lin Minjun felt a lump in her throat and almost shed tears.

This is not a big deal, but I feel like another knot in my heart has been untied. It turns out that someone really cares about her, and it turns out that she is not just being pretentious.

Thinking back, ever since she started dating Yan Lige, all her expectations had been firmly supported by him and had never been disappointed.

"What's wrong? Why are you crying?"

Lin Minjun: "I didn't cry, I just think you're so nice." As soon as she spoke, she couldn't hide her tears.

Yan Li suddenly stopped Lin Minjun, held her shoulders, and saw that her two big almond-shaped eyes were a little red and swollen, with tears in her eyes.

He was silent for a while, and when he saw that there was no one around, he suddenly stretched out his long arms and hugged Lin Minjun into his arms. His voice was particularly vague in the night: "I don't know what you have been through, but you seem to have no sense of security. You always feel that you are not important to others, but Jun, you are very important to me. I like you, and this is what I should do. It is my duty to do it, and it would be inappropriate not to do it. Is it right to leave you alone at the door and go in to fight for the so-called honor by myself?"

"No matter what happened in the past, you are the most important to me besides the country. Even if I have to deal with other important things, I will make sure you are taken care of first. Next time, you don't have to wait outside alone, just come in and ask me."

Lin Minjun snuggled in his arms and suddenly felt extremely aggrieved. She didn't know why she felt so aggrieved. Tears welled up in her eyes and she couldn't hold them back.

She bit her lip and tears flowed out one by one. She didn't feel sad even when she was crying. She just felt happy, as if her heart was about to jump out of her body with joy.

After a while, they vaguely heard someone walking towards them not far away, and Lin Minjun let him go immediately.

The two continued walking towards the cinema. Lin Minjun cried for a while, and the knot in her heart was completely gone. However, she looked a little embarrassed, "Brother, do you think I am being too hypocritical?"

Yan Li said nothing, but just smiled and pulled her hand.

As they were talking, they arrived at the cinema. Yan Li was in the spotlight today. The person in charge of the cinema came out to greet them personally and even helped them push their bicycles to the door. He said thank you very much, thanking the public security comrades for helping to catch the little thief. "You two are dating, right? You must come often in the future. I will reserve the best seats for you."

Riding a bicycle home, Lin Minjun sat in the back seat. It was no longer raining, so there was no need to use an umbrella. She hugged Yan Li's waist and suddenly asked, "By the way, brother, do you remember what you told me about dating?"

Yan Li: "I remember, what happened?"

Lin Minjun: "I was very surprised at first. Why did you never mention it again after you mentioned it once? Did you regret it at that time? If I hadn't taken the initiative to hold your hand, would we not be together anymore?"

"Have you realized that you are the most important to me and are starting to settle the score?" Yan Li asked.

That's really what she meant. Lin Minjun didn't have the face to ask before. One reason was that she was embarrassed and felt that asking this question was a bit too pretentious. The second reason was that she didn't know whether the two of them could go to the end, so she just took it one step at a time.

But now it’s different. At this moment, Lin Minjun really wants to know the answer to this question. She especially wants to know why Brother Yan Li only mentioned it once and never mentioned it again. Does he really regret it?

"Just say it. It's okay if you tell me the truth. I won't be angry. I'm just curious." She leaned on Yan Li's back and started to act coquettishly.
