Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Seeing in a New Light

This wasn’t just to surprise Fei Jin; it was also to provide compelling evidence for what happened.

"Officer, if you don’t believe me, how about we arm-wrestle?"

Song Qingya suggested calmly.

"Really?"

The female officer seemed surprised and pointed to herself.

The officer beside her said with a hint of a smile, "I’m afraid you’ve picked the wrong opponent. Xiao Lu might be a woman about your height, but she’s one of the strongest and best fighters in the bureau. If you can beat her, we’ll be truly impressed."

Lu Yao beamed at the praise, scratching the back of her head shyly.

"Oh, well, I’m not all that. I only took second place in the provincial fighting tournament, that’s all."

’This Lu Yao is going to be a tough nut to crack.’

Song Qingya raised an eyebrow slightly, but she felt no fear.

Fei Jin leaned down and whispered in Song Qingya’s ear, "Maybe we should just forget it? I know you’re good with technique, but arm-wrestling is all about brute force."

Song Qingya smiled and shook her head.

"It’s fine. Trust me."

Song Qingya gently patted Fei Jin’s shoulder.

’This buff is the real deal.’

The two sat across from each other at a table to begin the match.

A tense energy filled the air.

Lu Yao planned on going easy on Song Qingya.

After all, she didn’t look like someone who exercised regularly.

At first, Lu Yao intentionally held back, wanting to see what Song Qingya could do.

She never expected that in a single move, Song Qingya would easily slam her arm down.

The whole thing was over in less than two seconds.

"Wait."

Lu Yao’s eyes went wide, her face a mask of astonishment.

"I was careless just now, I wasn’t paying attention. Let’s go again!"

"Alright, one more time," Song Qingya replied with a smile.

The second round began.

This time, Lu Yao was clearly taking it more seriously.

She took a deep breath, held it, and fixed her eyes on her opponent’s wrist.

The match resumed.

Lu Yao put every ounce of her strength into it.

But even so, she watched helplessly as she was defeated by Song Qingya once again.

’Song Qingya’s wrists are so slender. How can she possibly have such astonishing strength?’

Fei Jin and the police officers watching from the side were all stunned by this scene.

Some of them couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement.

"Holy cow, she’s incredible!"

"Now I totally believe it. That guy definitely got roughed up by her," another colleague chimed in.

"No wonder he was so desperate to get back to the bureau. A punch like that could probably break bones, right?"

The young officer, Xiao Yang, stood with his mouth agape. He took off his hat, completely captivated by the sight, his eyes glued to Song Qingya.

"Commander, is that our sister-in-law?" he asked in amazement.

The final round.

Once again, Song Qingya slammed down the arm of a vein-popping Lu Yao.

The final score was 3-0.

She had won, an overwhelming victory.

Lu Yao looked disappointed, but she recovered quickly.

"Alright, I believe you. You’re insanely strong."

Her dejection lasted all of three seconds before she grabbed Song Qingya’s hand, her eyes sparkling.

"Can you teach me? How in the world did you get so strong?" she asked excitedly.

"Ahem, Lu Yao, don’t talk about this stuff while on duty!" the male police officer beside her reminded her.

Lu Yao gave Song Qingya a pleading look, her eyes filled with anticipation.

Song Qingya smiled.

"We can exchange numbers and practice together sometime," she said gently.

"Great! It’s a deal."

Lu Yao jumped up with joy.

Then she quickly snapped back into professional mode, diligently asking questions and taking notes.

Song Qingya found herself really liking the young woman.

She was enthusiastic and lively, but also magnanimous and didn’t hold a grudge.

Even after being defeated, she didn’t resent her opponent.

Instead, she happily asked if they could hang out.

If it had been Wen Wei in the same situation, she would undoubtedly be holding another grudge against Song Qingya.

Song Qingya had always been very clear about which people to keep a distance from and which were worth getting close to.

In her past life and in this one, she always avoided people like Wen Wei.

As for Lu Yao, she felt an instant connection, taking a liking to her right away.

But this personality...

Why did it feel so, so similar to someone’s?

That carefree attitude of hers.

Song Qingya looked in Xiao Yang’s direction.

She saw Xiao Yang under the loquat tree, his back ramrod straight.

But in stark contrast to his rigid posture, his eyes were darting about evasively.

He was secretly glancing at Lu Yao.

Xiao Yang, who was normally a social butterfly, was now blushing as red as a ripe cherry.

’Oh-ho, now this is interesting!’

The corners of Song Qingya’s mouth turned up slightly.

Soon, the written statements were completed.

The hotel attendant came over to give a witness statement, calmly describing the situation at the time.

In addition, some officers had already gone to the hotel to investigate the scene.

By cross-referencing the room’s condition with the attendant’s testimony,

they confirmed the truthfulness of her statement.

The details of how Wen Wei and Sun Yaoguang had conspired to buy the seductive fragrance on the black market were uncovered one by one.

On top of that, the key in Sun Yaoguang’s possession that could open the Fei Family’s door became ironclad evidence.

The testimony and physical evidence were all there.

Even in this situation, Wen Wei still didn’t give up the chance to defend herself.

She kept proclaiming her innocence, trying to win sympathy by shouting.

But in the face of the facts, her efforts were futile.

Wen Wei suddenly remembered something and let out a desperate cry towards Song Qingya.

"Song Qingya, can you really bear to watch me be taken away? We came from the same place! If you let them take me away like this, you’ll definitely regret it!!"

’We’re from the same era, after all.’

’How could Song Qingya send her to jail?’

Wen Wei’s words were met with confused frowns from everyone present.

Lu Yao scoffed.

"Now of all times, she expects someone to go easy on her for old times’ sake? I guess she forgot they were from the same hometown when she was drugging Sister Qingya and hitting on her husband."

After losing to Song Qingya, Lu Yao immediately started calling her "sister," admiring her immensely.

Xiao Yang whispered from the side, "That’s not right. Our sister-in-law is from Qi City, and Wen Xiuxiu is from Auntie Zhou Huaihua’s village. They aren’t from the same hometown at all, are they?"

Hearing Wen Wei’s words, Fei Jin quickly pulled Song Qingya closer, afraid she would be scared.

His brows were tightly furrowed.

"What nonsense is Wen Xiuxiu spouting now? Since when were you two from the same hometown?"

"She probably hasn’t eaten in a day. The hunger must be making her delirious," Song Qingya said lightly.

She didn’t care at all about Wen Wei’s identity.

’There are good people and bad people in every era.’
