You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

That loud, powerful voice exploded in the ward like a depth charge.

The tense atmosphere, which had been fraught with tension and undercurrents, was completely shattered.

Lin Chen froze.

Su Qingge and Su Ke'er, who were on either side of the hospital bed, also froze at the same time.

"Squeak—"

The ward door was pushed open, and a middle-aged woman rushed in, her eyes red and swollen.

It was Lin Chen's mother, Shen Manyun.

Behind her followed the old team leader, Zhang Zheng, carrying a huge fruit basket and looking utterly helpless.

"son!"

Shen Manyun rushed to the bedside in three quick steps.

When she saw Lin Chen's left shoulder wrapped in thick bandages and his pale face, the tears she had been holding back all the way burst forth.

"This auxiliary police officer was doing a good job, how did he end up getting into a fight with knives and guns?"

"If this leaves any lasting health problems, how will I ever get married..."

Just as Lin Chen was about to say a few words of comfort, his mother's crying stopped abruptly, as if a pause button had been pressed.

Her gaze passed over Lin Chen and landed directly on both sides of the hospital bed.

The one on the left is exceptionally beautiful and has a cool, aloof demeanor.

Although she was wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, her innate heroic spirit and tall figure were impossible to hide.

The one on the right is sweet and lovely, so pitiful that I feel sorry for her.

Her big, watery eyes seemed to speak volumes as she held a bowl of chicken soup, her face full of worry.

Both are top-tier beauties that are hard to find even with a lantern.

Shen Manyun's tears instantly disappeared.

She blinked her tear-filled eyes, the grief on her face slowly freezing, and then a joy comparable to discovering a new continent burst forth from her eyes.

She looked Su Qingge and Su Ke'er up and down carefully.

That look in his eyes was like someone browsing a farmers' market and spotting two incredibly fresh and juicy cabbages, making a "tsk tsk" sound of admiration.

"Ouch, this injury... it was worth it!"

This heartfelt whisper made the air in the entire ward freeze.

For the first time, a blush of bewilderment appeared on Su Qingge's perpetually icy face.

She instinctively straightened her back, but her gaze remained fixed on her toes.

Su Ke'er was so embarrassed that she almost buried her face in the chicken soup bowl, and her two small ears were so red that they looked like they were about to bleed.

"Ahem!"

Old team leader Zhang Zheng couldn't stand it any longer. He coughed heavily twice, trying to forcibly pull the building, which was leaning to the side, back to its original position.

He stepped forward, avoiding the wound, and patted Lin Chen's uninjured right shoulder forcefully, his weathered eyes filled with barely suppressed admiration.

"Good lad, you've done a great job this time!"

"The bureau has decided to award you a first-class merit! The bonus and certificate of honor will be issued soon!"

Lin Chen tugged at the corners of his mouth, revealing a perfectly timed, slightly weak, bitter smile.

While he was dealing with his boss and his mother, the long-awaited system notification finally rang out in his mind like heavenly music.

[Ding! S-Rank Emergency Mission: The Final Concert, Completed!]

[Task settlement in progress...]

[Mission Evaluation: Perfect! The host demonstrated extraordinary courage and decisiveness during the mission, successfully rescuing the hostages and subduing the criminal with minimal losses!]

[Reward received: 100 million in cash (already deposited into the host's bank account)]

[Reward Obtained: God-level Driving Skill (Already Fusion)]

[Reward received: Intermediate Body Enhancement Agent, automatically repairing host's injuries...]

As the last notification tone faded, Lin Chen felt a strange surge of heat pump out from his heart.

Unlike the violent impact of the past, this time it was like a gentle stream, quickly nourishing every inch of the parched meridians.

A tingling, itchy sensation came from the wound on my left shoulder, and the excruciating pain that had penetrated to the bone was subsiding at an alarming rate.

The muscle fibers that were torn in many places from forcibly catching the chandelier are also rapidly repairing and reorganizing, becoming stronger.

A brand new, more powerful force is quietly emerging deep within my body.

Comfortable!

Just as Lin Chen was enjoying the pleasure of his body being repaired, a faint fragrance quietly approached his ear when no one was paying attention.

It's Su Qingge.

While Lin's mother was enthusiastically asking Zhang Zheng, "Which of these two girls works at your workplace?", she blushed and leaned closer.

She spoke quickly in a voice only the two of them could hear:

"Thank you……"

Her voice was very soft, with a barely perceptible tremor and lingering fear.

"And... I'll definitely pay you back for that meal I owed you before, once you're better."

After saying that, she retreated quickly like a startled rabbit, the blush on her cheeks more vibrant than the sunset.

Lin Chen was overjoyed.

This bloodshed was well worth it!

Before he could even savor the moment, Su Ke'er, not to be outdone, joined in.

The little girl mustered her courage, her big, watery eyes filled with sincerity and admiration, and called out in a sickeningly sweet voice:

"Brother Lin Chen, you saved me, and I want to repay you! From now on, I'll cook whatever you want to eat!"

Lin Chen lay in bed, his heart filled with joy.

On the left is a dinner invitation from a cool and aloof policewoman.

On the right is the sweet teacher's promise of lifelong feeding.

He felt the power surging within him, and then thought about the long string of zeros that had just appeared in his bank account.

Lin Chen slowly closed his eyes, his lips curling up uncontrollably into a wild smile.

Tears of beauties, blood of heroes.

This is a huge profit.

This is probably the pinnacle of life... nothing more than this.
