"It's really not easy. I feel that catching these two people is easier than dealing with that woman. If you don't want to cause trouble when you meet a woman like this, you really have to avoid her. If you get entangled by her, you will definitely lose a layer of skin. She is really shameless and invincible."

Sun Qiancheng, who was driving, said with a smile, "That's because you haven't met anyone more difficult than her. I've been in the police station for so long, and I've seen a lot of people like her, some of whom are even more exaggerated than her."

"Is it any more exaggerated than this? Oh my God, is this a policeman? I think I should just do criminal investigation." Li Dawei sighed towards the sky.

Zhou Chen glanced at him and said, "Get ready. When we return to the police station, the director will definitely look for us. Be prepared to be scolded."

Li Dawei sat up straight abruptly: "Being scolded, why are you scolding us?"

"You'll know when you get back."

Zhou Chen did not explain. Today's arrest operation was quite smooth, but based on Wang Shouyi's character, he would not praise them for successfully arresting people. He would be more likely to reprimand them for their arrest.

As for the subsequent development of the traffic accident, there is no need to mention it. Li Dawei almost got into trouble, so how could he not be scolded?

They quickly returned to the police station. Chen Xincheng took over the investigation and mediation of the matter of the fat woman and the girl from the Li family, while Zhou Chen and his team took the two robbers to the interrogation room.

It was already late afternoon and the police station was short of staff, so Zhou Chen and Li Dawei were called to the interrogation room to cooperate with the veteran police officer in recording the interrogation.

The two robbers were still not obedient after being caught, but they surrendered after a while under interrogation, but that was more than an hour later.

As soon as Zhou Chen walked out of the interrogation room, he saw Cheng Hao and his men, escorting a group of people waiting, including a number of women in revealing clothes.

After asking, I found out that Cheng Hao led a team to destroy a den suspected of sex crimes and arrested a large group of people, so many that there were not enough interrogation rooms.

Seeing Xia Jie standing outside absent-mindedly, Zhou Chen walked over.

"Xia Jie, what are you thinking about? Did Director Cheng not let you participate in today's operation?"

Xia Jie came back to her senses and looked at Zhou Chen: "How did you guess that?"

"Do I need to guess? Everyone knows that Chief Cheng is most worried about you and is afraid that you will get hurt. He will definitely not let you take such a dangerous action."

Xia Jie looked depressed and lowered her head: "Yes, my master is like this. Although he always takes me with him, he doesn't let me do anything. I have said it, but he doesn't listen at all. Oh, I don't want to be a vase, and I don't want to be protected like this all the time. I just want to be an ordinary policeman like you. Why is it so difficult? My mother is like this, my master is like this, and the director is like this too. What should I do?"

The more she talked, the more painful it became. Xia Jie didn't want to do this in front of others, so she quickly walked out of the office area, came to the small courtyard outside the police station, and sat in the corridor.

Zhou Chen followed her and also sat down in the corridor.

"Xia Jie, I think that whether it's your mother, or Director Cheng, they have good intentions in worrying about you."

"I know, that's why I feel even worse. The more they act like this, the more depressed I feel. I don't want to be like this, really, Zhou Chen. It's only been a week and I can't stand it anymore. If it keeps going like this, I'm afraid I'll collapse one day."

Chapter 1032 Wang Shouyi's Persuasion, Renting a House

Zhou Chen could understand Xia Jie's pain.

Ever since her father passed away, she has been under a lot of pressure due to her mother's excessive dependence and care.

After work, the care she received from her unit, her master, and the way her colleagues looked at her added even more psychological pressure on her, as she was already sensitive.

She wanted to change, but she couldn't break free from her mother's cage, nor could she change the opinions of her colleagues. Over time, she could only suppress it in her heart and endure the pain alone.

"Xia Jie, if you want to get out of your current predicament, you must make changes."

"Change?"

Xia Jie raised her head and stared at Zhou Chen hopefully with her red eyes.

"Do you have any idea?"

Zhou Chen said slowly: "When you feel that you can't bear it, you should make changes and not just obey blindly. After all, you are an adult and have a job. You are no longer a child who needs protection. If you can't change this concept yourself, then it is destined to be like this, so you must make changes."

“So how can I change?”

"Resistance."

"Resist?"

"You know the rebellious psychology of children, the more you suppress them, the more they want to rebel. That's how you feel now, but you lack the determination of a child to resist. You are always compromising, so you are the only one who suffers in the end."

Xia Jie hesitated and said, "You want me to rebel against my mother and my master? How can I do that? I am the only relative left to my mother, and my master is doing this for my own good. How can I be so selfish as to hurt them?"

"See, so you asked for this."

Zhou Chen spread his hands and said, "You just think that as long as you resist, you are hurting them, but you never thought that sometimes this kind of resistance and harm is not a bad thing."

"Let's talk about your mother. Although I have never met her, I can tell her character from her behavior. Do you think you can work with peace of mind if she keeps on doing this and keeps getting in your way? She can't live without you. If you fall in love and get married in the future, do you think you will have to continue to live with her? Even if I am willing, your mother may not..."

"and many more."

Xia Jie, who had been listening attentively, suddenly interrupted and stared with wide eyes when she heard this.

"What do you mean you are willing?"

Zhou Chen laughed and said, "Don't think too much. Seeing you are sad, I am just joking with you to ease your mood."

Xia Jie glared at Zhou Chen unhappily: "Don't make fun of me next time."

Zhou Chen pretended to be dissatisfied and shouted: "Why, do you think I am not worthy of you? Xia Jie, take a good look at me, I am handsome, talented and rich, and the most important thing is that if you follow me, you don't have to worry about your parents-in-law, and..."

"Stop, stop, stop."

Xia Jie quickly stopped Zhou Chen: "You are getting more and more irrelevant. Now we are talking about my business. Can you please stop changing the subject?"

But it was no longer possible to hide the blush on her face, and her heart was beating fast.

"Okay, back to your matter. As I just said, the most important thing is to learn how to resist. I'm not asking you to do the opposite, but to resist selectively. You have to learn to refuse some unreasonable requests, and the same goes for your mother and Chief Cheng."

"You have to subtly let them feel that you have your own ideas and cannot just give in to them. Maybe it will make them unhappy at first, but over time, when they feel your determination, they may change."

Xia Jie asked doubtfully: "Is this really okay? You don't know my mother. She is the kind of person who really..."

She herself didn't know what to say. She was very aware of her mother's problems, but she didn't have the courage to make her change.

"How do you know it won't work if you haven't tried? Your mother is only in her forties. She still has many years to live. She has to live her own life. You should try to get her to leave you and live her own life."

Zhou Chen had watched the TV series and knew what kind of person Xia Jie's mother was. She was very capable and very dependent on others. She used to rely on her husband and later on her daughter.

From the plot of the TV series, we can see that she needs others to arrange everything for her. She is like a young lady, just sitting back and enjoying the fruits of others' labor. The reason why she got together with that man later was not because of anything else, but because the other party could accommodate her and go along with her. In her bones, she is the kind of person who needs to be taken care of.

Therefore, as long as she can find someone who can replace Xia Jie, she will definitely not keep her eyes on Xia Jie anymore.

Although Xia Jie's mother is very pretentious, there is no shortage of people in the world who can tolerate her. In this world, there are bootlickers of all levels.

"What about my master?"

"This depends on your own efforts. It's useless to just talk. You need to take practical actions to let Cheng see your progress and your ability. If you perform well enough, I think even Cheng will change."

Zhou Chen knew that Xia Jie was a girl with a good personality, but she was easily influenced by others, not very proactive, and easily doubted herself. However, she was also very stubborn and not good at adapting.

In short, they have not experienced the torture of society, their self-regulation ability is too poor, and they are too easily attached to appearances.

Suddenly, a weak voice sounded behind them.

"What are you doing?"

Xia Jie was so frightened that she stood up suddenly. When she turned around and saw that it was Zhao Jiwei, she became furious.

"Zhao Jiwei, next time, can you please not speak so suddenly? It scares people to death, okay?"

Zhao Jiwei said aggrievedly: "I made a sound when I came over, but you were too engrossed and didn't hear it."

Zhou Chen said, "Zhao Jiwei, you should be more observant next time. Didn't you see that we were whispering? If you had come a little later, I might have taken Xia Jie down."

"Take your head."

Xia Jie was so angry and ashamed that she yelled at Zhou Chen, then stomped her feet twice and left angrily.

Zhao Jiwei looked at Zhou Chen with incredible eyes, as if he had discovered a new world.

"Are you in a relationship?"

"Talk about you."

Zhou Chen stood up and said, "We've only known each other for a week, how can it happen so quickly?"

Looking at Zhou Chen's back, Zhao Jiwei muttered, "That's hard to say."

As soon as Zhou Chen pushed the door open and walked in, he saw Li Dawei coming out.

"Zhou Chen."

"Officer Chen, haven't they solved it yet?"

Li Dawei shook his head. "No, I just went over to take a peek. They're still in the mediation room. It's quite a fight. The woman's husband is here. He's not as wild as she is. He wants to apologize and reconcile, but Li He's father disagrees and is making a scene inside."

"It's normal for her to disagree with mediation. My daughter was hit and slapped, and her clothes were torn. No one would agree to a settlement."

"That's right. Zhao Hong deserves it. She went against the grain so recklessly. In my opinion, she should be detained for a week so that she can reflect on herself."

Li Dawei's face was scratched by her. He hated the fat woman Zhao Hong very much and wished she was detained.

"Just say this in front of me. Don't say it in front of the director and your master, or you'll be scolded again."

"Oh, what a mess! I worked so hard to mediate, but ended up with my face disfigured. I still have to worry about getting scolded. It's too hard."

Li Dawei touched the scars on his face and lamented, feeling that he was really unlucky today.

As he was speaking, Yang Shu came over with a sad face.

"Yang Shu, what's with that expression on your face? Looking so sad?" Li Dawei asked curiously.

Yang Shu shook his head and said, "Nothing."

In fact, he and his master Cao Jianjun rescued a person who jumped from a building today, but after they came back, they were scolded by the director, who said that they were too impulsive and took action without waiting for the firefighters to arrive. What if something happened?

In fact, he also felt that what the director said made sense, but after following Cao Jianjun for a few days, he also understood some of his master's character, and they did save people.

So he was conflicted inside and it showed on his face.

"Zhou Chen, Li Dawei, follow me."

Wang Shouyi walked over and called Zhou Chen and Li Dawei to the side.

"Director."

"You two were responsible for the case of Zhao Hong and Li He. The instructor, Lao Chen and I have been trying to persuade them for more than an hour. Zhao Hong and her husband are willing to reconcile, but Li He's father is unwilling to reconcile. He insisted on taking his daughter to get her injuries assessed and said he wanted Zhao Hong to go to jail. This matter is very difficult to handle."

After hearing what Wang Shouyi said, Li Dawei said, "What's so difficult about it? It was Zhao Hong who was wrong in the first place. She hit someone first. It's normal that her father doesn't want to reconcile. If it were me, I wouldn't reconcile either."

"you shut up."

Wang Shouyi glared at Li Dawei in anger and said, "Our police station is responsible for mediating conflicts. If everyone is like you, detaining people whenever something happens, what's going on?"

"Zhou Chen, Li He's father wants to go for an injury assessment. Was it your idea?"

Zhou Chen was not guilty at all: "Yes, I told him that he could do an injury assessment. There are bloodstains on Li He's face. This is considered intentional injury. If the injury is serious, he can be sentenced."

"Well, Zhou Chen, Li Dawei wants to detain you, but you are even more powerful than him. You want to sentence him. What do you think? Is it that serious?"

Wang Shouyi looked at Zhou Chen with a headache. He thought Zhou Chen was mature and steady, which was more in line with his way of doing things, but now it seems that Zhou Chen is even more ruthless than Li Dawei.

"Director, it's not us who decided this, but Li He's parents. Don't try to persuade others to be kind without experiencing their suffering. If this happened to us, we would definitely not let it go easily, just like Li He's father did."

"It's just a slap in the face, but it's not just a slap in the face. This slap in the face may make Li He resist doing good deeds. More seriously, it may have a great impact on her psychologically. She did nothing wrong, so why should she bear such consequences? She can't protect herself, but her parents can protect her, and we police officers can protect her."

"And that Zhao Hong, if we get away with it so easily this time, will she remember the lesson? She might even become even more aggressive in the future..."

"Okay, okay, stop talking."

Wang Shouyi's head became even bigger. He covered his waist with one hand and his head with the other.

"I'm so unlucky. You're a newcomer and you're giving me a lecture. The key is that I can't even refute you. You're a college student after all. You're well-educated."

"But you have to understand that we are police officers. We cannot instigate others based on subjective judgment. You are violating the rules."

Zhou Chen said: "Director, I didn't instigate them. I just told them that they have this choice. Whether they do it or not has nothing to do with me."

"you……"

Wang Shouyi was choked and speechless: "Okay, I can't argue with you, both of you come with me, Li He's parents want to see you."

Zhou Chen and Li Dawei looked at each other and followed. Before entering the mediation room, Wang Shouyi said something to Zhou Chen again.

"Zhou Chen, I know you are smart and have your own ideas. That's why you know better what to do to benefit the Li family. In Zhao Hong's case, the maximum punishment is less than three years, but it is unlikely to be the case. At most, she will be detained for a period of time."

"I'm not trying to excuse her. Her situation is extremely bad and I hate it, but you should have seen what kind of person she is. If you make trouble with her regardless of the consequences, you can get her locked up, but have you ever thought about what will happen after she gets out? Will she cause trouble for the Li family again?"

"The Li family of three looks like a good family. If Zhao Hong pesters them relentlessly, what will happen? Have you ever thought about it?"

Li Dawei heard this and retorted unhappily: "She is the perpetrator and the Li family is the victim. Does this mean that the Li family should compromise?"

Wang Shouyi didn't answer him, but looked at Zhou Chen.
