Li Mingxi watched the old lady running away and was at a loss whether to laugh or cry!
Looking at Huo Jingchen standing there, Li Mingxi stepped forward and spoke directly.
"Thank you so much for what happened today. If it weren't for you, I would definitely have to pay for it today!"
Seeing Li Mingxi thanking him, Huo Jingchen quickly waved his hands and said, "No need to thank me, we just happened to meet!"
Just at this moment, Zhu Qiang, who had been standing not far away, walked over.
As soon as he saw Li Mingxi, he greeted her with a smile.
"Girl, what's wrong with you? Why did you run into these people?"
Li Mingxi shook his head.
"I don't know. I guess it's because I was thinking about something just now, so someone took advantage of me!"
When Zhu Qiang heard what Li Mingxi said, he immediately suggested, "Every failure makes you wiser. I think you should be more careful when you go out in the future!"
Li Mingxi nodded.
"Speaking of which, thank you so much today. I'll treat you to a meal another day!"
How could Zhu Qiang let Li Mingxi treat him to a meal? He came to help because of the captain.
Besides, the girl in front of him was the captain's favorite, so he didn't dare to interfere.
Look, when he heard Li Mingxi say that she wanted to thank him, he was so scared that he waved his hands quickly.
"No, big sister, it's not easy for you either. There's no need to treat us to a meal. Besides, this is just a matter of convenience. There's no need to spend so much money on you!"
Although Huo Jingchen had a cold face, he was listening to the movements here.
Fortunately, Zhu Qiang was honest enough and did not do anything wrong, otherwise, he would definitely kick this guy out of the team.
But just as he was about to put his mind at ease, he heard Zhu Qiang's voice again.
"Big sister, speaking of gratitude, the person you should thank the most is our boss. If it weren't for him, we really wouldn't have noticed what's going on here!"
Li Mingxi didn't know about this. Seeing Huo Jingchen's cold look just now, she always felt that he was impatient to see her.
Who would have thought that he was the one who sent someone to help him!
No, when she heard Zhu Qiang say that, she subconsciously asked back, "Really?"
"That's right, you don't even know. When the captain saw you were wrongly accused, he was so anxious that he first ordered us to find an accomplice, and then he went up to help you!"
As soon as Zhu Qiang said this, Huo Jingchen called out, "Zhu Qiang, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Zhu Qiang, who was originally very interested in talking to Li Mingxi, became dispirited when he heard the boss talking about him.
Well, since the boss doesn’t allow me to say it, then I won’t say it.
Speaking of which, Zhu Qiang really didn't know what the boss was thinking. He was obviously taking care of the girl in every way, but when the girl stood there, he had a stern face again.
It's nonsense to think that a girl would like him given his appearance!
As soon as he saw Zhu Qiang's eyes, Huo Jingchen knew that this guy was daydreaming again.
He glared at him fiercely, and at this moment Zhu Qiang came to his senses.
Under the captain's gaze, he felt a surge of resentment in his heart.
However, he just said it in his mind, and he didn't dare to go against the captain's words.
So, under Huo Jingchen's gaze, he spoke reluctantly.
"Big sister, I was just nagging, don't take it to heart!"
As he spoke, he kept winking at Li Mingxi.
Li Mingxi looked at him with a helpless smile and nodded.
"Don't worry, I know you are joking on purpose, so I won't take it seriously!"
After a pause, Li Mingxi continued, "No matter what, I have to thank you for what I did just now!"
As she spoke, she bowed to Zhu Qiang and the others.
When Zhu Qiang saw her like this, he quickly spoke up to stop her, "Big sister, don't do this!"
"It's fine if you don't let me treat you, but you can't forbid me from bowing!"
When Zhu Qiang heard this, he agreed and stopped trying to stop her.
After thanking the person and seeing that nothing was wrong, Li Mingxi prepared to leave.
After a moment's thought, she spoke.
"Well, it's getting late now. If you don't have anything else, I'll leave!"
Zhu Qiang wanted to ask Li Mingxi to stay, but he looked at Huo Jingchen who was standing beside him with a fierce look in his eyes.
Well, he really didn't have the courage to keep them.
"Okay, big sister, if you have something to do, go ahead!"
"Then I'll leave first!"
As he spoke, Li Mingxi had already stepped onto the bicycle, and then, with a push, he rode away.
Zhu Qiang looked at Li Mingxi's receding figure and sighed.
"Hey, Boss, I don't want to say anything, but you were the one who stood up to help the girl just now. Why are you so scared now that she's right in front of you?"
However, Huo Jingchen just looked ahead with a cold face and did not speak.
Zhu Qiang was still talking to himself, "Boss, the eldest sister just said goodbye to you, why didn't you even say a word? With your current status, when will you be able to get married?"
The more he spoke, the more inappropriate his words became, in order to avoid hearing any shocking remarks from Zhu Qiang later.
Huo Jingchen immediately stopped him, "Zhu Qiang, if you dare to talk nonsense again, get out of here!"
Seeing that the boss was angry, Zhu Qiang didn't dare to say anything more even if he had more to say, and had to shut up immediately.
Then, he remembered their mission. They came out this time with a secret mission. He didn't know if they had been exposed because of helping Li Mingxi just now.
Because of the fall of **, the situation everywhere is now very chaotic. Look, in recent times, the county town has been in great chaos.
There are black markets everywhere, and the government can't control them, but that doesn't matter.
After all, after so many years of hardship, it is normal for everyone to want to live a better life through their own efforts.
Therefore, everyone turns a blind eye to this.
But who would have thought that some people would use the black market to start the business of reselling antiques.
For this reason, the people above directly ordered them to come here to investigate the matter.
It is imperative to catch these people to prevent future troubles.
Who would have thought that when they came here today to investigate, they saw Li Mingxi being bullied!
The captain's appearance should be exposed now. I wonder if those people were among the onlookers just now.
Thinking of this, Zhu Qiang asked.
"Boss, what should we do next?"
Seeing Zhu Qiang asking himself this, Huo Jingchen glared at him.
"What do you think?"
Mo Minqi was surprised to hear the boss say this, and Zhu Qiang was a little confused.
If he knew what to do, he would become a leader and wouldn't have to listen to the boss's orders!
Huo Jingchen looked at Zhu Qiang's confused expression, pursed his lips, and ignored him.
When others saw Zhu Qiang's look, they couldn't help but laugh.
