"Officer, you really are a good man. Thank you again for your help."
Wu Nanzhi remained very polite, thanking Xiao Ming before she left.
After all, he had helped her kick away that pest, Ma Gao.
It would have been better if she had said nothing. Her thanks only made Xiao Ming crumble further.
Out of nowhere, he had been handed the "nice guy" card, and his grand career as a simp had perished halfway to its goal.
"It's nothing. It's my duty," Xiao Ming said with a bitter smile.
Watching Wu Nanzhi leave, he redirected his fury toward Ma Gao, who was laughing beside him.
Ma Gao already disliked Xiao Ming, so seeing him suffer a setback naturally delighted him.
If I can't have my goddess, neither can you!
Trying to climb higher by stepping on me? Took quite a tumble, didn't you!
The Saint Remnant Soul felt deeply gratified by this scene and could even sense energy stirring within Xiao Ming's body.
After this, Xiao Ming's strength would probably improve a little again.
Meanwhile, after leaving Evergreen Street, Li Chen casually asked, "Were those friends of yours?"
Wu Nanzhi shook her head. "I don't know them either. They're probably officers patrolling the area. They're surprisingly nice."
She did not want to admit she knew Ma Gao, and she genuinely did not know Xiao Ming.

Her lovely figure rose and fell like mountain peaks, a feast for the eyes, with every exquisite curve in just the right place.
Someone without a good figure could never have worn it with such graceful allure.
Since Li Chen had noticed that this mature beauty had changed her outfit, he offered her a compliment.
