Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law-Chapter 501 - 504 Conditions

There, sitting in a daze, was a man with a full beard. One of his wrists was swollen to the size of a steamed bun.

Seeing this, Han Jiajia fell silent. After a long pause, she finally spoke. "Judging by his state, it looks like you subdued him! I have to say, Er Gou, you're surprisingly skilled! But you can't do this again. Next time, it's better to wait—"

Before Han Jiajia could finish, she saw Liu Ergou suddenly throw something at her. She hurriedly reached out and caught it. Without even looking at the object, she said irritably, "What are you doing, Er Gou! I'm talking to you, and you just throw things at me. You could have hit me!"

"Just take a look at what I threw you," Liu Ergou replied simply.

Hearing his words, Han Jiajia glanced at the object in her hand. The sight startled her.

It was a gun.

Just then, Liu Ergou spoke again. "See this? This man came to kill me with a gun! Damn it! If I wasn't so skilled, I would've been shot in the head!"

Han Jiajia didn't answer him. Instead, she began examining the gun closely. After a moment of scrutiny, she finally said, "I've checked. It's homemade."

Finished, she looked at Liu Ergou with a serious expression. "Er Gou, what is all this about? Why would someone come to kill you with a gun?"

"I asked him," Liu Ergou said without raising his head. "The man behind this is Sun Gang."

Han Jiajia frowned at the name. "Sun Gang? How could it be him?"

Seeing her reaction, Liu Ergou grew curious. "What's wrong with Sun Gang?"

Han Jiajia sighed and explained, "Here's the thing, Er Gou. A while ago, I was looking through some files in our archives. I saw that many cases were somewhat linked to him. Although there was no direct evidence, you could always find traces of Sun Gang's involvement in them."

Hearing this, Liu Ergou fell into deep thought.

Han Jiajia continued, "Honestly, Er Gou, your case is the first one with a direct link to Sun Gang! But the evidence still isn't enough. We're a long way from being able to convict him. So, Er Gou, can you help me?"

At her request, Liu Ergou couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "Help you? What exactly do you want me to do? Help you take down Sun Gang?"

Han Jiajia rolled her eyes. "Be serious! Who asked you to take him down? What I mean is, since Sun Gang has already tried to get to you once, he'll definitely try a second and third time after this attempt failed. So, I'd like your help in gathering evidence so we can finally bring him to justice!"

After speaking, she looked at Liu Ergou with an expectant gaze. She had expected him to hesitate, or maybe even refuse. To her surprise, he listened and then agreed without the slightest hesitation.

"Sure, I can do that. No problem, I'll help you collect criminal evidence against Sun Gang. But..."

Hearing him trail off, Han Jiajia's heart leaped into her throat again. Under her anxious gaze, Liu Ergou smiled. "I can help you, but... how do you plan on thanking me? You can't expect me to work for free, right?"

With that, he looked at her with a teasing, half-serious smile. For some reason, that look made Han Jiajia feel inexplicably flustered, and her words came out in a stammer.

"Well, um... if you help me... I can apply for a reward for you... You should know, the bonus for something like this is quite substantial!"

Facing Han Jiajia's offer, Liu Ergou rejected her without a second thought. "No, I don't need money. I have my own medicinal herb plantation in Fengzhu Village. What use do I have for your pocket change?"

His words left Han Jiajia stunned. She didn't know what to do. In the past, the promise of a bonus had always been her trump card, but now she had lost it. Looking at Liu Ergou, she racked her brain but couldn't think of anything else she could offer him as compensation.

Liu Ergou saw that she had gone silent, but he wasn't in a hurry. He just stood there, waiting patiently.

Several minutes passed. Han Jiajia couldn't stand it any longer. She stamped her foot and said impatiently, "Agh, just tell me what you want! Don't just stand there silently. How am I supposed to guess?"

Since she had said as much, Liu Ergou didn't hold back. "Officer Han, I won't make it hard for you. Rest assured, what I want is very simple. When I've gathered enough criminal evidence against Sun Gang to help you... how about you and I go on a date?"

Hearing his words, Han Jiajia froze on the spot. Her cheeks began to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in less than thirty seconds, her face was as red as an apple.

She never expected him to propose something like this. She had seen Liu Ergou with different women on several occasions, which meant he clearly wasn't short on girlfriends. Yet now, he was setting his sights on her... this...

For a moment, Han Jiajia was torn, completely unsure of what to do. She agonized over it for a long time. Finally, looking at Liu Ergou's teasing smile, she couldn't hold back any longer. She gritted her teeth, stamped her foot, and agreed.

"Fine, Er Gou, I agree! If you can really help me, then it's just a date. I'll go! It's not like you can do anything to me, anyway!"

Although her last sentence was a whisper, Liu Ergou heard it loud and clear. He felt a laugh rising in his throat.

Not do anything to her? Tsk, tsk. He figured that when the time came, her words wouldn't mean a thing. He would be the only one calling the shots.

With this thought, Liu Ergou chuckled to himself and said no more. Instead, he helped Han Jiajia haul the man off the ground and into the police car. He then got into the passenger seat.

Riding in Han Jiajia's police car, Liu Ergou returned to the city. As they were about to part ways, he offered to take her to dinner.
