Hong Kong Film: Night Cop

"I'll go check the kitchen first. If there's nothing there, I'll go out and buy it for you."

Li Fei went into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. Apart from a few bottles of drinks and a carton of eggs, there was really nothing else to eat.

After closing the refrigerator, Li Fei planned to go out and buy some food for Lei Xiaofeng.

Just then, Lei Xiaofeng walked in carrying a bucket of instant noodles and said, "Eat this!"

"Is this what you usually eat at home?" Li Fei asked, surprised.

"If you don't want to cook, this is fine, it's convenient," Lei Xiaofeng said nonchalantly.

“Okay, leave it to me, I’ll cook it for you,” Li Fei said.

"You even stir-fry instant noodles?" Lei Xiaofeng looked at Li Fei as if to say: I'm not well-educated, so don't try to fool me.

Hasn't instant noodles always been soaked in hot water?

"Haha!" Li Fei couldn't help but laugh out loud and said, "I'll make it for you! There are eggs in the fridge, so you can just wait and eat."

In his previous life, Li Fei had watched videos on how to make instant noodles taste good. He knew that there was a type of stir-fried instant noodles that was very delicious, and Li Fei had even tried it before.

It's really good.

"Oh!" Lei Xiaofeng responded, handed the instant noodles to Li Fei, and then returned to the living room, sitting down on the sofa with a embarrassed expression.

Li Fei put water on the gas stove to boil, then took out the eggs, and then...

The kitchen door was open, and Lei Xiaofeng, sitting on the sofa, could see Li Fei busy in the kitchen at a glance. Tears suddenly streamed down Lei Xiaofeng's face, her heart filled with grievances.

Although she was very harsh on Ding Shouli, did she ever make Ding Shouli do these things?
She has always been the one doing all the housework, while Ding Shouli spends his time studying butterflies when he gets home.

Lei Xiaofeng wiped away her tears and turned on the TV, but her eyes were filled with the controlling shareholder, and she had no desire to watch it.

After a while, Li Fei came out carrying a plate of golden fried noodles. Whether it tasted good or not was another matter, but it looked very appealing.

He handed the chopsticks to Lei Xiaofeng and said, "Try it! Coat the noodles with egg liquid and stir-fry over high heat. This stir-fried noodle dish has the fragrance of eggs and the chewy texture of noodles."

"I don't know what your taste is like. If you don't like this kind, I'll cook it again for you."

Lei Xiaofeng didn't stand on ceremony. She took the chopsticks and started eating. At first, she was a bit polite, but gradually she ate faster and faster, and finished the whole plate of fried noodles in no time.

"Is it tasty?"

Lei Xiaofeng nodded upon hearing this.

Li Fei poured Lei Xiaofeng a glass of water and said, "How hungry are you!"

Lei Xiaofeng took a sip of water and said, "The noodles are very crispy. This is the best stir-fried noodles I've ever had. I never thought instant noodles could taste better than meat and fish. How did you make them?"

Li Fei said with a laugh, "This isn't instant noodles, it's instant noodle fried noodles with egg liquid, like this... like that..."

Li Fei told Lei Xiaofeng how to make this delicious dish.

"Thank you," Lei Xiaofeng said gratefully.

"These are the little things."

Li Fei sat down next to her, took her hand, and said, "Don't you think we're destined to be together? I saved you, you thanked me, and now we're sitting together again."

Lei Xiaofeng blushed, moved to the side, and after a moment of silence, suddenly said, "I have no intention of divorcing him. I was just saying it in anger."

After all, they had been married for over a decade, and Lei Xiaofeng still couldn't let go of her feelings for Ding Shouli.

Seeing Li Fei remain silent, Lei Xiaofeng continued, "At first, I was very angry about his infidelity, but after I got together with you... do I still have the right to blame him?" Li Fei stared at Lei Xiaofeng for a long time, then suddenly said, "Even if you don't want a divorce, so what? Our relationship is like this, don't you want one too?"

Upon hearing Li Fei's shameless words, Lei Xiaofeng suddenly laughed.

After pausing for a moment, she cupped Li Fei's face and said, "That's right, you are a bastard. Not only you, but I am a bastard, and Ding Shouli is an even bigger bastard. All three of us are bastards."

Li Fei chuckled, sat down beside her, and said, "Since you've admitted to being a bastard, shouldn't you do some of the things a bastard should do?"

Lei Xiaofeng's eyes flickered for a moment, and she said, "Not today, it's a bit inconvenient. Let's talk about it later!"

"Inconvenient? What's wrong?" Li Fei immediately thought of a woman's period, but his sense of smell was very sensitive, and he couldn't smell any blood at all.

"No... well, I'm not ready yet."

"Not that reason?" Li Fei asked. "You're not just making excuses for me, are you?"

"No, we've already gone that far, is there any need to be perfunctory?" Lei Xiaofeng said, then continued, "Just wait a bit! Wait three days, come back in three days, okay?"

Although Li Fei really wanted to, he wasn't the kind of person who would act recklessly just because of lust. Since he was told to wait three days, he might as well wait.

Seeing that he agreed, Lei Xiaofeng began to shoo him away, saying, "Alright, you have to go now."

Looking at the time, Li Fei realized he had already wasted a lot of time here, and he still had to spend the afternoon with Liang Xiaorou.

"Okay, but I need to leave something behind before I go."

And so, Li Fei left, while Lei Xiaofeng covered her mouth and went to the restroom.

……

The next day.

Li Fei first went back to the West Kowloon Police Station to clock in, then said goodbye to Liang Xiaorou and left the station.

He didn't want to delay any longer regarding the murder of the dancer.

He found Zhang Dayong and told him that he had found some clues, and then told Bai Mei that she had a lover.

As for who the lover is, Cheng Sheng didn't say, because he believed Zhang Dayong could find out. After all, in the original drama, Bai Mei didn't hide her relationship with her lover, A Qiang.

Following Li Fei's lead, Zhang Dayong and Li Zhongyi quickly found out about his lover, Aqiang.

The two immediately went to the door, but no one answered after they knocked for a long time.

Just as the two were about to break down the door, Ah Qiang suddenly appeared from behind them.

However, upon seeing the two men, the highly alert A-Qiang turned and fled. Upon seeing this, Zhang Dayong and Li Zhongyi instantly realized that this man was the A-Qiang they were looking for.

The two followed closely behind and chased after them.

However, thanks to his familiarity with the terrain, A-Qiang quickly shook off the two.

Unable to catch A-Qiang, Zhang Dayong and Li Zhongyi returned to A-Qiang's residence, broke down the door, and entered A-Qiang's house to search for clues.

They not only discovered that A-Qiang was left-handed, but also found Bai Mei's bloodstains in one of A-Qiang's sneakers. Now, Zhang Dayong had ample reason to suspect that A-Qiang was the real murderer of Bai Mei.

Upon returning to the police station, Zhang Dayong and Li Zhongyi reported the matter to their superiors.

Not long after, the police issued an arrest warrant for Ah Qiang. (End of Chapter)
