Awakening the Phoenix Flow System after the breakup, I'm so happy!

Li Ruoxue's breathing became erratic due to his extremely close and oppressive presence.

She turned her head to look out the car window and stubbornly uttered two words.

"I won't buy it."

Chen Yang leaned forward an inch, his nose brushing against her cheek.

"Really not buying?"

"I'm not buying it, that's fine. I'm a policeman, I'm running around the station all day, it's so uncomfortable wearing those fancy clothes."

Li Ruoxue deliberately kept her voice calm and composed, putting on a businesslike demeanor.

Chen Yang didn't reply, but lowered his head and sealed her lips with his.

This was not a gentle kiss; it was a forceful one, carrying a hint of punishment.

Li Ruoxue placed her hands on his chest and pushed him away twice but couldn't. In the end, she could only weakly grab his shirt collar.

It took Chen Yang quite a while to back away even half an inch.

Li Ruoxue's cheeks were flushed red, her chest heaving as she breathlessly cursed at him.

"You're like a dog, always biting people."

Chen Yang raised his hand to wipe away the moisture from the corner of her lips, his voice very low.

"Officer Li, that's a bit unreasonable. I'm trying to help you out by spending money, but you're not cooperating at all. So I'll just have to charge you some interest first."

Li Ruoxue laughed in exasperation.

"Who asked you to spend money? You insisted on coming. The sports vests in my closet are perfectly fine. Why would I want to buy those weird styles you're talking about?"

Chen Yang tapped his fingers twice on the leather steering wheel and began to argue with her.

"Is a sports vest something you should wear on a date? This is a date, you know? A date has to be romantic."

Li Ruoxue glanced at him sideways and pouted.

"How come I didn't know we were on a date? Stop flattering yourself. I'm monitoring you, you dangerous element."

Chen Yang was amused.

"Now the dangerous elements want to buy you clothes. If you don't agree, then I'll have to do something even more dangerous in the car."

Li Ruoxue shrank back, her back pressed tightly against the leather passenger seat.

"You dare? This is a public place; people can walk right across the front of the car at any time."

"So what if it's a public place? This Maybach has excellent sound insulation. As long as Officer Li doesn't shout, even if people outside are pressing their faces against the glass, they won't hear you."

As Chen Yang spoke, his hand had already moved down her waistline.

Li Ruoxue quickly pressed his hand down, her tone softening.

"Stop fooling around, Chen Yang. If someone sees you, it'll be hard to explain."

Chen Yang grasped her hand in return, pinched her slender fingers, and kissed them.

So, should we buy it or not?

Li Ruoxue bit her lower lip, her gaze wandering aimlessly around the carriage.

"Besides, it's already so late, the mall is about to close, there's no time to slowly pick things out."

Chen Yang glanced at the time on the center console, his tone relaxed.

"There's still an hour and a half before closing time, which is more than enough to buy a few clothes. If Officer Li thinks trying on clothes takes too much time, we can just buy everything we like."

Li Ruoxue stared at him with wide eyes.

"You have money to burn, huh? You might as well donate it to Project Hope and you'll get a good reputation."

Chen Yang sighed, rested his chin on her shoulder, and inhaled the fragrance of her hair.

"Donating money to impoverished mountain areas is doing charity, while buying clothes for your wife is fulfilling a man's duty. These two things are not contradictory at all."

Upon hearing the word "wife," Li Ruoxue's ears turned bright red.

She awkwardly pushed Chen Yang's head.

"Don't call me that. Who's your wife? It's not even close to happening yet."

Chen Yang raised his head and stared at her intently.

"When Officer Li pounced on me and kissed me in the photo booth upstairs, he didn't say that. He was so aggressive that I thought he was going to take me to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get our marriage certificate tomorrow."

Li Ruoxue rolled her eyes at him, annoyed that he had exposed her secrets.

"You just told me, you always use the same lines to fool young girls."

Chen Yang protested his innocence.

"I don't have time to lie to young girls. Just serving you, this arrogant criminal investigation captain, is enough to give me a headache."

Li Ruoxue gave a soft snort.

"So what if I'm arrogant? It's called professional self-defense. Who else has such an indecent mind like you?"

The two were arguing and pulling at each other in the car.

Li Ruoxue wouldn't budge, finding all sorts of reasons to refuse.

One minute she says black is too mature and not suitable for her, the next she says she can't get past the mental barrier of styles with lace trim.

They even used the excuse that they bought it but never had a chance to wear it.

Chen Yang patiently talked to her, gradually dispelling her concerns.

But he gradually realized that the woman was deliberately stalling for time.

He's usually decisive and efficient when handling cases, but now he's arguing with him endlessly, clearly enjoying it.

Actually, she had already been somewhat persuaded by what he said, but she couldn't bring herself to do it because of her identity as a police officer.

Chen Yang simply stopped caring.

"Alright, since Officer Li won't listen to reason, let's get down to business in this underground parking garage today."

As he spoke, he reached for Li Ruoxue's seatbelt buckle, adopting a posture that suggested he was about to get serious.

As soon as my finger touched the black metal button, I found that the latch offered no resistance and fell off easily.

Seeing his stunned expression, Li Ruoxue finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Li Ruoxue, are you kidding me?"

Chen Yang realized what was happening.

The woman had already quietly unbuckled the buckle herself when he leaned in to help her unbuckle her seatbelt.

Then I kept pretending to pull him along, just to see him get impatient and then get frustrated.

Li Ruoxue laughed so hard she almost fell off the footrest.

"Who told you to be so domineering, insisting on dragging me to buy those kinds of clothes? What's wrong with me teasing you?"

She retorted confidently, her large, watery eyes gleaming with cunning.

Chen Yang felt a surge of anger at her smug expression.

He reached down and slapped Li Ruoxue's shapely breasts hard.

A crisp sound.

The fabric felt surprisingly good even through the black bodycon skirt.

Li Ruoxue sprang up as if she had been electrocuted, her head nearly hitting the sun visor on the car roof.

"Chen Yang, are you crazy? Why did you hit me?"

She covered the spot where she had been hit, her face flushed red as if it were about to bleed.

That's a girl's sensitive area! This man's actions were so inappropriate and forceful.

Chen Yang leaned back in the driver's seat and slowly straightened his disheveled shirt collar.

"This is called a slight punishment, to teach Officer Li a lesson. If he dares to make fun of me again, it won't be as simple as hitting him through my skirt."

Li Ruoxue stared at him, her chest heaving violently.

"You big scoundrel, who wants to talk to you?"

She angrily opened the passenger door and stepped out in her high heels.

They walked quickly, their heels making a crisp echo on the quiet garage floor.

Chen Yang took out the car keys and followed slowly behind.

Li Ruoxue walked to the elevator entrance, looked at the descending elevator numbers, and then turned to glare fiercely at Chen Yang.

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and press the elevator button."

Not long after they finished eating, this woman got so angry that she started bossing people around.

Chen Yang walked to her side and pressed the up button.

"Officer Li gave in so easily. I thought you were going to walk back through the fire escape."

Li Ruoxue had her back to him, speaking with an air of self-righteousness.

"You made me take a slap for nothing. If the clothes you buy tonight don't suit my taste, you're not leaving this mall."

Chen Yang watched her huffing and puffing as she walked away, then shook his head with a smile.

Women, even detective captains, use the same tactics when they get arrogant.

The elevator doors opened, and the two of them walked in one after the other.

The entire second floor of the mall is dedicated to selling high-end women's clothing and intimate apparel.

Chen Yang led Li Ruoxue inside with practiced ease.

Li Ruoxue followed behind, looking at the clothes hanging in the shop window, her pace slowing down as she walked.

Why is this whole area full of places selling those indescribable things?

The fabrics, as thin as cicada wings, and the lace trims in various colors were dazzling to the eye.

Some styles are made up of just a few pitiful strips of fabric; what difference is there between wearing them and not wearing anything at all?

Li Ruoxue stopped and grabbed Chen Yang's arm.

"Why did you bring me here? This is what you call proper clothes."

Chen Yang turned his head and pointed to a specialty store in front of him whose decor exuded an ambiguous atmosphere.

"It has everything. Since Officer Li wants me to apologize, I should definitely buy the most expensive item to show my sincerity."

Li Ruoxue glanced at the signboard; the name was particularly charming.

She absolutely refused to go any further.

"I'm not going. I can't wear these things out in public. If my colleagues at the bureau see me buying this, how am I supposed to lead the team in the future?"

Chen Yang grabbed her wrist and forcibly led her toward the store entrance.

"Who told you to wear this out? I bought this for you to wear alone, so be good."

Li Ruoxue gripped the stainless steel handrail in the mall aisle tightly with her other hand.

"Let me go, you big liar! We clearly agreed in the car that I was just buying a regular short skirt."

Chen Yang walked up to her and, taking advantage of her inattention, picked her up by the waist.

Li Ruoxue gasped in surprise, her feet suddenly dangling in the air, and she could only instinctively grab his neck.

Although there weren't many people in the mall, a few passing customers still stopped to look at them.

Li Ruoxue buried her face in Chen Yang's chest and growled at him through gritted teeth in a low voice.

"Chen Yang, put me down right now, this is so embarrassing."

Chen Yang carried her and strode into the lingerie store.

"I'll put you down once you're inside."

Upon seeing this, the female sales assistant in the store immediately came over, her smile as professional as could be.

"Hello sir, are you looking at intimate apparel for your girlfriend? We just received a few new erotic items, perfect for young couples like you with a great relationship."

Upon hearing the word "romance," Li Ruoxue felt like she was about to burst into flames in Chen Yang's arms.

Chen Yang gently placed her on the ground, then put his arm around her stiff shoulders, which were stiff from nervousness, and turned to look at the sales assistant.

Which styles of short skirts in your store can be paired with long stockings?
