This Witch Transmigrated into the Romantic Novel’s Supporting Role

Chapter 124

"By the way," Li Yong said suddenly with some hesitation, but in the end he chose to trust Chi Xin. Chi Xin had been the fierce king of their squad back then. If it weren't for his family, he would have risen through the ranks in the military. Who knew he would retire and start a business?

"I have something to ask you about any leads."

Chi Xin: "What is it?"

Li Yong: "Didn't I mention before? They have a big deal going on, but I don't know the location. Wondering if you have any leads on your end."

Of course Chi Xin didn't have any leads at his security company. "What do you think this place is? It's just a security company."

Li Yong: "But I know you have several high-level former intelligence personnel working at your company."

Chi Xin: "Come on, we're all law-abiding citizens." Chi Xin suddenly thought of Chu Yang. "But I can find someone for you. Let me ask, I think she might know."

Li Yong immediately became interested. "Who?"

Chi Xin: "Let me ask her first. I'll get back to you."

"Okay, hurry up."

"Don't worry."

The person Chi Xin was thinking of was Chu Yang, but he should consult Chi Yan about this matter first.

In the afternoon, when Chu Yang left the hospital and returned to school for classes, Chi Xin came over.

"How is it going?"

Chi Yan was sitting and watching TV. "It's fine, the doctor said he's recovering well."

"That's good. I want to discuss something with you." Chi Xin pulled up a chair and sat next to Chi Yan.

Chi Yan's eyes were still fixed on the TV. "What is it?"

Chi Xin started peeling some fruit nearby. "That gang from last time, they have a big thing coming up, but your Uncle Li and the others don't know the location. I was wondering if your little girlfriend could... help take a look. It's paid work."

Chi Yan looked at his uncle. "I need to ask Yang Yang about this, see what she thinks. It won't be dangerous, right?"

Chi Xin shook his head. "Of course not. Just taking a look. Don't worry, no one will know."

"Wait until Yang Yang comes over tonight, I'll ask her."

"Okay, let me know if she's willing to do it."

Chi Yan: "If it's paid work, is there a lot of money involved?" Chi Yan made a hand gesture indicating money.

Chi Xin swatted his hand away. "Don't worry, it won't be a small amount."

Chi Yan felt relieved. "Okay then."

"You rest well, give your uncle a call if you need anything."

"Mm."

That evening when Chu Yang came over, Chi Yan told her about this matter. Chu Yang readily agreed. "Do you have photos of those people?"

Of course she wanted revenge on those who bullied her boyfriend! Such people absolutely couldn't be let off the hook!

Chi Yan sent Chu Yang's question to his uncle, and soon Chi Xin sent over the photos.

It didn't take long before Chu Yang revealed the location, and not only that, she leaked several pieces of information, including the time, number of people, and equipment those people had on them, in addition to the location.

As soon as Chi Xin received the information, he immediately passed it on to Li Yong's side.

Li Yong was curious: "How did you get the intel?"

Chi Xin: "You know... I'm acquainted with some highly skilled individuals." He coughed.

Li Yong thought of Chi Xin's acquaintance with the Taoist master Wen Jue Guan Dao. "No problem, right?"

Chi Xin assured him: "Absolutely no problem."

Li Yong believed him. "Okay."

Chi Xin: "Remember to give a reward."

Li Yong patted his chest. "Don't worry, if we catch those people, it'll be a great achievement. Definitely a generous reward."

After a week, Chi Yan was discharged from the hospital, and all his checkups showed no issues. Chu Yang came to pick him up, and that evening they had a celebratory dinner with Wei Feng, Jin Yang, and others.

The group was eating barbecue and seafood at a hotel, but most of it was consumed by Wei Feng and the others, as Chu Yang didn't let Chi Yan eat too much since he had just been discharged from the hospital, and only ordered some light dishes for him.

While they were eating, at a dilapidated factory in this city, a group of people were conducting a deal.

However, just as they were about to exchange items, a group of police officers came in and arrested everyone on the spot!

The leader was squatting on the ground, holding his head, unable to comprehend how their deal location had been leaked. This place was so remote, and the deal location was only known to him. The others only found out when they drove there. Even if there was a leak, it shouldn't have been possible for the police to arrive so quickly. It was clear that they had known about it in advance.

Could there have been a mole on their side?

But it was too late for any investigation now.

That night, Chi Xin received a call from Li Yong: "Hahaha, we caught them! We'll have a good drink when this is all over."

Chi Xin: "You go take care of business first, but don't forget the reward. You know, these highly skilled individuals charge a high price..."

Li Yong: "...Don't worry! Pass along my gratitude to the highly skilled individual."

Although they arrested one group, Chi Yan was still being followed by people, because the organization hadn't been completely destroyed. Chi Xin was worried they might try to kidnap Chi Yan again.

The police raid this time took down a major hideout in Jing City, and implicated some people as well. Li Yong was so busy that it took over a month before Chi Xin received the reward.

Chi Xin received a reward of 200,000 yuan, and he added another 100,000 yuan from his own pocket and transferred it to Chi Yan, saying, "This is the reward for your little girlfriend."

Chi Yan sent his uncle a clasped hands emoji, expressing gratitude, and quickly transferred the money to Chu Yang.

Upon receiving the money, Chu Yang transferred a portion back to her family, donated a portion, and kept a portion for herself.

Previously, she had said that she would discuss going abroad with Chi Yan after he returned from the competition, but she didn't bring it up after Chi Yan's incident, worried that something else might happen. However, now that she knew the gang in Jing City had been apprehended, she felt that Chi Yan should be safe, so she could consider leaving safely.

Therefore, during dinner that day, Chu Yang told Chi Yan: "Yan, I want to go abroad for a trip."

Chi Yan: "What for?"

Chu Yang explained: "It's about the crystal ball. I need to go to the West to find a real crystal ball." Without the crystal ball, her Weibo hadn't recovered, and many fans were still asking when she would return, with some even wondering if something had happened to her.

Chi Yan immediately decided: "Then I'll go with you."

Chu Yang shook her head. "No need, I'll just take a week off. You should stay in Jing City. That organization still exists, right? You stay at school, I can handle it myself."

Chi Yan didn't want that. "I want to go with you. Those people have been caught, I don't think there's any danger."

Chu Yang thought for a moment. "We'll discuss it later, let me prepare first."

Taking leave was easy, she just needed to inform her teachers and they generally wouldn't stop her.

However, Chi Yan kept insisting on going with her, feeling that something might happen if he didn't accompany her.

"Baby, I want to go with you," Chi Yan said, hugging Chu Yang with his head on her shoulder.

Baby?

Chu Yang flinched upon hearing that term of endearment. "Baby?"

Chi Yan: "Yeah, baby."

Chu Yang got goosebumps. "You should just call me Yang Yang, I'm not used to that." She felt it was too mushy. Well, she just didn't understand romance.
