Chapter 3

Chapter 3

Jul 19, 2023

  Jiang Greed purposely left the door early and slowly slipped to the mall only to find that Ying Peak was already waiting at the entrance of the mall. He is very tall, visual estimate should be one meter nine, broad shoulders, narrow waist, long legs, standing there, handsome and outstanding. Jiang Greed accelerated his pace and walked over for a short while, the girls coming and going all had to look at him twice.
  
  If it wasn't for Ying Peak himself saying that he was just a social animal with a monthly salary of three thousand dollars, and with this sightless aura, Jiang Greed would almost have thought that he was the overbearing president of some company.
  He trotted over and stood in front of Ying Peak, somewhat embarrassed, "Been waiting long, have you?"
  
  Seeing him appear, Ying Peak, who had originally been surrounded by passersby with some impatience, slightly eased his expression and lifted his left wrist and tapped his wristwatch, "Soon, it's me who came early. Where are we going to talk?"
  
  The two met today to discuss how the "fake couple" would work.
  
  But Ginger Greed clearly wasn't ready to get straight to the point as he asked with a smirk, "Have you had lunch yet?"
  Ying Peak hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head, "No."
  
  Jiang Greed then said, "Then why don't we find a place to talk over a meal? How about hot pot? Do you have any taboos?"
  
  A hot pot? Thinking of several pairs of chopsticks fishing for vegetables in a pot, Ying Peak couldn't help but frown. However, seeing Jiang Greed's look of eagerness to eat, and thinking about his own f*cked up poor social animal persona, Ying Peak still pressed on in the end. Nodding expressionlessly, he said, "As you wish."
  Big deal, he doesn't eat.
  
  Seeing him agree, Jiang Greed was really happy, "I know a very delicious hot pot restaurant, wait for me, I'll go buy a roasted pig's feet and take you there."
  
  Then Ying Peak watched as he ran at a cheerful pace to the food stalls in front of the mall. These stalls were all improvised simple tents, and it was neither hygienic nor healthy for pedestrians to come and go from in front of them. As he watched Jiang Greed buy three roasted pig's feet and return, Ying Peak's brows almost wrinkled into a pimple.
  
  Jiang Greed was very happy, carrying two portions for himself and handing the other to Ying Peak, "Please eat."
  
  Ying Peak stared at it for half a day before reluctantly reaching out to take it. Jiang Greed didn't notice his abnormality, and while leading the way ahead, he took a beautiful bite of the pig's feet, "I told you this place sure tastes good."
  Saying that, he saw Ying Peak not moving and urged him to taste it quickly.
  
  As an extremely sophisticated dragon, Ying Peak had neither eaten at a roadside stall nor tried to eat while walking on the street. He took a deep breath, tried to squeeze out a smile, and said, "I'll eat later."
  
  Ginger Greed let out an "oh" and his attention was quickly distracted -
  The mythical animal in the bag smelled the scent and arched around the bag in discontent: he wanted to eat too.
  
  "Bought it for you and waited until no one was around to give it to you."
  Jiang Greed lowered his voice to appease his brother, and after he whispered a few coaxing words, the animal that was moving around settled down.
  
  The hot pot restaurant was at the end of the alley, Jiang Greed took Ying Peak through the alley on the right side of the mall, and when he was halfway there, he heard the sounds of arguing and calling for help from diagonally across the street. This alley is not as lively as the other side of the mall, with only a few scattered passersby watching.
  
  Jiang Greed stopped to look, and saw that a young girl was being half-dragged and half-hugged by a middle-aged man in a gray suit toward the direction of the minivan, and the dragged girl struggled hard to call, "I don't know you guys, let go of me."
  
  The middle-aged woman who followed behind the two wiped her tears and cried, "Qianqian, don't mess with your parents, you ran out so many days, your father and I didn't close our eyes for several days to look for you everywhere, you're just heartbroken, heartbroken mom and dad, go back with us."
  
  The middle-aged man said angrily, "What's the use of crying with her? If she was obedient, could she have stolen the family's money and run out? This time when we go home, we'll send her to live in the school, it's all because you've spoiled the child to be like this!"
  
  Middle-aged men and women sing together, a red face and a white face, see the girl struggling to call for help want to help passers-by hesitated.
  There were also old people who advised, "The child is young and doesn't know what to do, you adults talk nicely, you can't use violence."
  
  Others educated the little girl, "It's wrong to steal money from the family, why don't you learn at a young age?"
  
  The girl's tears flowed all over her face, and then looked at the surrounding passers-by who were persuading her, and cried and begged, "I really don't know them, they are human traffickers, please help me call the police."
  
  The middle-aged man sniffed and heavily slapped her on the back, more vigorously dragged her toward the car, looked very exasperated, "Call the police to call the police, how many times have you made a scene to call the police? The police have said, you again report false alarms to disrupt official business, is to be detained and punished ......"
  
  Middle-aged men and women would have been dressed in a decent, this kind of righteous look more so that the passers-by originally born out of doubt and hesitation, so hesitant for a little while, the girl has been dragged to the car next to the onlookers half-believing, her hands dead grasping the door refused to get on the car, can only be desperate to cry for help.
  
  Just at the moment when the girl was about to be stuffed into the car, Jiang Greed quickly stuffed the shoulder bag and the roasted pig's feet into Ying Peak's arms, and then rushed over with great strides and pulled the girl out of the car.
  
  Perhaps not expecting someone to make a mess, the middle-aged man's complexion changed, and he quickly reached out to pull the girl back, "Young man, this is our family matter."
  
  The girl was scared out of her wits, and when she saw the middle-aged man coming to pull her again, she screamed and ducked straight behind Jiang Greed: "I don't know them!"
  
  Jiang Greed grabbed the middle-aged man's arm, and with his other hand, he had already taken out his cell phone and dialed 110: "Whether it's a domestic matter or not, it will naturally be clear when the police come."
  
  The middle-aged man did not expect him to be so strong, struggled for a moment did not break, the look snapped up: "Young man, there is a misunderstanding, you first let go, we will make things clear."
  
  Seeing this, the middle-aged woman who had been crying, even straightened up and knelt down, crying towards the girl hiding behind Jiang Greed: "Qianqian, stop messing around, go back with mom and dad, if you keep on messing around like this, mom and dad really won't have the face to live anymore."
  
  Probably because the middle-aged woman was crying too miserably and genuinely, the passers-by unconsciously favored her.
  There was even someone who advised Jiang Greed, "This is someone's family business, so don't get involved. When the police come to make it clear, it's you who will be embarrassed."
  "Yes, these parents are also sinful, how did they give birth to such a child ......"
  
  Jiang Greed, however, was unmoved and only said to the onlookers, "It's okay that I got it wrong, but if these two people are really human traffickers, letting them take the people away is harming this little girl. Human life is at stake, it's better to wait for the police to come and figure it out."
  
  His tone was firm, and the passersby who had believed the couple were shaken. Some even took it upon themselves to surround the couple and chimed in, "Fair enough, there's a guard booth right over at the mall, someone went to call someone."
  
  The two waves were in a stalemate when someone shouted, "The police are here!"
  
  The crowd subconsciously follow the sound to see, the pair of middle-aged men and women see the situation is not right, take the opportunity to rush to the car to drive to escape. They drove the car regardless of rushing forward, the crowd did not dare to stop, watching the two rampage to rush out, but heard the car tires suddenly issued a few pops, four tires even burst.
  
  This scene is too shocking, everyone froze for a moment. It is the police rushed to the police in the crowd froze rushed forward, the middle-aged man and woman from the car escorted down.
  
  The onlookers who originally believed the middle-aged man and woman's words now also reacted to the fact that this couple was really human traffickers! Why else would they run away? Some angry passers-by took advantage of the police do not pay attention to, ruthlessly in the human traffickers body kicked a few feet.
  
  There were also people who couldn't believe it and sucked in a breath of cool air, "Now there are human traffickers with so much guts that they dare to rob people in the street?!"
  Someone else complimented Jiang Greed: "Luckily, this young man was smart enough to stop the man, otherwise the girl would have been in trouble."
  "Yes, these traffickers are really unconscionable and shall not die."
  
  The crowd was talking, the girl who was captured on the street had already sat paralyzed on the ground and cried into tears, Jiang Greed helped her up and comforted her, "It's already okay, the police are here too, don't be afraid."
  
  This little girl is only sixteen or seventeen years old, should still be a student. Only when she saw the police did she finally calm down a bit, and while choking, she fished out her cell phone from her bag to call her parents.
  
  The incident of the trafficker taking the girl on the street was so bad that the police quickly escorted the person back to the police station. The girl's parents also arrived soon after receiving the call and followed the police to the police station. And Jiang Greed, as a witness to the act of bravery, had to follow along to make a statement.
  
  The crowd of onlookers was gradually evacuated, Jiang Greed walked towards Ying Peak and scratched his face, "Thank you just now. But I guess the hot pot won't be eaten, I still have to go to the police station first."
  
  --If not for the highest peak standing on the side of the road where the minivan passed by, and reacting quickly and quietly using magic spells to burst the tires of the car, the two traffickers would probably have already driven away.
  
  Ying Peak didn't take his words, but only looked at him with a probing gaze, "Are you usually this helpful?"
  
  Jiang Greed didn't understand what he meant for a moment, and said with some confusion, "Isn't being helpful and seeing justice a traditional human virtue? If you see something you can help, of course you should give it a hand."
  
  The corners of Ying Peak's mouth collapsed into a straight line, although he didn't refute him, in his heart he was thinking that it was a human virtue, and what did it have to do with the demon race?
  
  Jiang Greed was probably one of the few demon races he had seen that had fully integrated themselves into human society. He suddenly laughed softly, "You are quite similar to my ...... a deceased person."
  
  "Deceased? A friend of yours?"
  
  Ying Peak smiled, "I should count him as an elder, right? He also loved to help the human race in his lifetime."
  
  Ginger Greed froze, "I'm sorry, I didn't know ......"
  
  Ying Peak waved his hand and said indifferently, "There's no need to apologize, he's been dead for a long time, I'm not sad anymore."
  It was just that he suddenly saw another Demon Race that looked so much like him, and had some feelings for a moment.
  
  Jiang Greed wanted to say something else, but Ying Peak shoved the shoulder bag and the already-cold roasted pig's feet back at him and pointed to the waiting police car on the side: "Let's go, people are already waiting."
  
  *
  
  The two of them went to the police station and walked around, and it was already past one in the afternoon when they came out after making a statement.
  
  Ginger Greed looked at the time and apologized, "I didn't expect to be delayed for so long, do you have something to do this afternoon?"
  
  "Let's go eat hot pot with you next time," Ying Peak looked at the missed calls on his cell phone, shook the phone and casually made up an excuse, "Today the leader suddenly informed that he had to work overtime."
  
  Jiang Greed immediately revealed a sympathetic look, "Then hurry up and go, I'll treat you to hot pot next time I'm free."
  
  Ying Peak gave a "hmmm" and prepared to take a taxi at the curb to go back to the mall to get a car. Jiang Greed accompanied him as he waited for the car, and suddenly remembered the business that he hadn't come to talk about today, and said, "Right, that thing Director Hu said--"
  
  Before he could finish his sentence, he was cut off by Ying Peak, "Since a new rule has come out, it's not good for a powerless little demon like us to object too vehemently."
  
  Ying Peak stuck his hands in his pants pockets, looked at him with downcast eyes, and said with deliberation, "...... If you don't mind, we can pretend to be a couple for a while first."
  As if he was afraid that Jiang Greed would be unwilling, he thought for a moment and added: "You don't really need to do anything, you just need to come out to dinner once in a while and pretend to be on a date, so you can deal with Hu Can. At the most, it won't take more than half a year for this rule to be implemented."
  
  Jiang Greed didn't think so much about it, he purely thought that he had received money from Director Hu, and that if he was entrusted by someone, he had to be loyal. He just didn't expect that Ying Peak would be so cooperative, arranging all the backstops in a clear manner. He then swallowed back what he had prepared to say and nodded, "Good."
  
  Although he did not bow to the power of money because he was afraid to defy the rules, but both of them have the same purpose, it should ...... not be considered a betrayal of revolutionary friendship, right?
  Ginger Greed thought with a bit of distraction.
