The coffee shop was bustling, mostly with young people. There were meticulously dressed singles and couples in pairs…
In a corner booth, a well-built waitress, swaying her slender waist, brought Bai Ye’s coffee to the table.
“Sir, your cappuccino!”
“Thank you!”
“Are you dining alone, sir?”
The waitress didn't leave immediately, making small talk in a sweet voice. Bai Ye, wearing a mask and facing away from the hall, couldn't hide his damned charm…
The girl was attractive, and her bold approach made other men staring at her envious, wishing they could be Bai Ye right then and there, pulling the waitress to sit down and chat about life.
However, Bai Ye glanced at her, his expression calm.
“No, I’m waiting for someone.”
“Oh, please enjoy your coffee…”
The waitress pouted, a hint of resentment in her eyes as she left.
As soon as the waitress left, a young man in sportswear, with a honest and simple appearance, walked in, looking around.
Bai Ye, with his back to him, raised his hand, and the young man immediately hurried over excitedly.
“Brother Ye!”
The newcomer was Zhang Yu. His injuries had completely healed, and there were no visible scars on his face or exposed arms, as if he had never been injured.
“Sit down, order whatever you want to drink.”
There was a QR code on the table; a scan would allow for ordering.
“Okay!”
“Brother Ye! Long time no see. Hehe…”
Zhang Yu grinned honestly, his excitement evident on his face. Over the past period, he had gradually understood from Liang Yin and his superiors that Bai Ye was the one who had saved his and Liang Yin’s lives.
And their physical fitness, after being transformed by Bai Ye’s miraculous ‘glucose,’ had surpassed ordinary people. Now, they were no longer ordinary police officers but had been transferred to Shanghai’s Special Security Department, becoming SWAT officers.
After Zhang Yu finished ordering, Bai Ye asked, “Isn’t Liang Yin with you?”
Zhang Yu shook his head. “Sister Liang is a team leader now, probably on duty. I’m a deputy leader in another team, so I’m more free and came quickly.”
Bai Ye nodded, not particularly surprised by the changes in their bodies and positions. The higher-ups must have known that their transformations were related to him, and with their combat effectiveness greatly increased, promotion was inevitable.
“Congratulations! Recovered and promoted!”
“Hehe…” Zhang Yu scratched his head and chuckled, then excitedly and gratefully added, “This… it’s all thanks to you, Brother Ye. Thank you… But if you ever need any help in the future, just say the word!”
“Of course…” Zhang Yu grinned honestly again. “As long as it’s not betraying the country…”
“Hahaha…”
Bai Ye was amused by him and took off his mask, taking a sip of coffee. Seeing this, Zhang Yu grinned and scratched his head again.
“Brother Ye, why did you stop streaming? I feel uneasy if I don’t watch your stream for a day…”
“Taking a couple of days off. Preparing to go abroad.”
“Ah? Where are you going?”
“Country R…”
“Holy crap! Breaking news! Hehe… I’m probably your number one fan now!”
…
They chatted in low voices for a while when a heroic and graceful figure walked in through the entrance. With delicate features and a voluptuous figure, her stunning physique immediately attracted the attention of many customers.
But upon seeing the woman in a black SWAT combat uniform, her cold and imposing gaze swept around, causing the young men to quickly avert their eyes, not daring to meet her gaze, and even silently reflecting on whether they had broken any laws…
“Sister Liang is here.”
Zhang Yu saw her and quickly got up, waving his hand.
“Sister Liang, over here!”
Liang Yin turned her head, her gaze immediately locking onto Bai Ye’s back. The cold and imposing look in her eyes softened slightly, and she walked with purpose to Bai Ye’s side.
The men in the coffee shop were stunned.
Who was that guy, anyway? How did he manage to attract such a domineering uniform goddess?
Bai Ye looked her over. Seeing that her injuries had also fully recovered, with no scars, and her skin even appearing more delicate and smooth than before, he said with a roguish smile,
“Sit down, Officer Liang.”
As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily drifted to the magnificent curves of her chest. It wasn't intentional; it was genuinely a little dazzling, eye-catching…
Liang Yin glared at him and sat down, a blush creeping onto her cheeks.
“Ahem~ If you don’t mind, call me Sister Liang from now on! You were born in ’0A, and I’m a few years older!”
“This…” Bai Ye frowned slightly. Good heavens, he was suddenly younger?
Liang Yin showed a faint smile. “Am I wrong?”
Zhang Yu’s eyes lit up. “Brother Ye was born in ’0A? That means he’s a few years younger than me too?”
You want to call me little brother too?
Bai Ye gave him a sidelong glance, and Zhang Yu immediately scratched his head and grinned.
“Hehe… Even though Brother Ye is younger than me, that doesn’t stop me from calling you Brother Ye!!!”
“Ahem~”
Bai Ye changed the subject. “What have you guys been busy with lately?”
Zhang Yu and Liang Yin exchanged a look and nodded. Liang Yin said in a low voice, “Clearing out the remaining rats in the underground.”
Regarding Shanghai’s rat infestation, Bai Ye had killed most of the red-eyed rats. Subsequently, Old Song organized soldiers to carry out the ‘cleanup,’ but some red-eyed giant rats still survived.
Therefore, the Shanghai special operations team continued to work underground to eliminate them. By now, red-eyed giant rats were rarely seen underground.
Liang Yin explained the situation. Zhang Yu couldn’t help but interject, “Sister Liang is amazing now. One night, she took down dozens of them by herself. I bet even ten thugs attacking her together wouldn’t be her match!”
“Oh? So powerful!”
Bai Ye feigned surprise. In his heart, he chuckled. If drinking my glucose only made her capable of defeating ten thugs, wouldn’t that be too weak?
Liang Yin’s lips curved upwards slightly.
“Brother Ye!”
Zhang Yu suddenly became interested, rolling up his sleeves. “Last time I saw you lift a huge wild boar directly, you’re very strong! I feel like my strength has also increased recently, how about we arm wrestle?”
Liang Yin glanced at Zhang Yu. You can’t even beat me, and you dare to challenge him? She didn’t stop him, but watched with amusement.
“Sure.”
Bai Ye smiled and placed his hand on the table.
“Here we go!”
Zhang Yu excitedly leaned his hand over, and Liang Yin’s eyes showed amusement as she shouted, “Three, two, one! Start!”
Knowing Bai Ye wasn’t simple, Zhang Yu used all his strength from the start, his arm muscles contracting into ropes, clearly defined, veins bulging.
However, Bai Ye on the opposite side looked calm, his arm unmoved. He even picked up his coffee with his left hand and took a sip.
(o゜▽゜)o Zhang Yu was utterly shocked. Brother Ye, do you have to be so discouraging?
“Alright, I surrender!”
After a moment, Zhang Yu gave up.
“Not bad!”
Bai Ye nodded. “Your strength, I estimate, is around two to three thousand kilograms.”
Zhang Yu was surprised again and looked around. “I tested it last night; it was 2619 kilograms!”
Liang Yin chuckled on the side, looked at Bai Ye, and wondered silently. How strong was this guy?
“Hello! Your coffee has arrived.”
As the three chatted, the waitress who had brought Bai Ye coffee earlier brought over more coffee. Seeing Bai Ye had removed his mask, she leaned forward as much as possible while serving the coffee, looking back slightly, hoping to catch a glimpse of Bai Ye’s true face.
The moment she saw him, her beautiful eyes widened in shock.
“Ah!!! Brother Ye…”
“Shhh!”
Bai Ye chuckled softly, placing his slender index finger to his lips in a silencing gesture.
*Knock, knock, knock~*
The waitress’s heart raced. She stared at Bai Ye for a long time, confirming that the nation’s beloved was right in front of her, then nodded.
Looking around, a few customers looked over curiously. She smiled apologetically.
Then, she whispered excitedly, “Brother Ye, can I have an autograph?”
Bai Ye nodded. The waitress immediately ran back to the counter and got a pen.
“On my apron, is that okay?”
Bai Ye gave her his autograph on the spot.
“Can I have a quiet coffee with you now?”
Looking at the flowing cursive signature on the apron, the girl nodded excitedly and then scurried back.
“Successful?”
“Did you get that handsome guy’s WeChat?”
“Congratulations!”
When the other waitresses asked her, she clutched her apron excitedly, wanting to tell them but afraid Bai Ye would mind, keeping a big secret, feeling both happy and frustrated.
“It’s really not easy to have a quiet coffee chat with you.”
Liang Yin drank her coffee, teasing him.
Bai Ye smiled faintly. “Can’t be helped…”
The three chatted until dark before getting up to leave.
“Come find us often when you’re in Shanghai.”
Liang Yin got into her car, glanced at Bai Ye, waved, and hurried away.
“Goodbye, Brother Ye!”
Bai Ye also got into his car, and Zhang Yu left last.
After seeing Bai Ye leave, the waitress who received the autograph finally revealed her secret.
“Sisters, do you know who that handsome guy was?”
“Oh? Isn’t that your little lover?”
“Show off! It’s just a handsome guy, the infatuation is written all over your face, really?”
…
Seeing her sisters tease her, the girl directly unfolded her apron, filled with excitement and pride.
“He’s Brother Ye, the magician Brother Ye, our national husband! This is his signature!!!”
“What?”
“Holy crap! You sly girl, why are you telling us this now!”
“No wonder she was daydreaming and smiling all day! Damn it!!”
“Ah! Brother Ye actually came here!”
…
In an instant, the entire coffee shop was about to explode. The coffee shop owner, hearing the news, rushed over immediately. The large restaurants and the arcade where Ye had previously appeared had become trending check-in spots, with booming business.
Now the attention had shifted to his place, so how could he not be excited? Upon arriving at the shop, he immediately offered 500,000 yuan for Bai Ye’s signature to the waitress…
At night, Bai Ye returned to Lone Star Villa.
Gou Dan and the others, having returned from the ranch, were playing some unknown games and were all dirty.
He filled the swimming pool with water, letting them wash themselves. After cleaning the pool, he started a happy bonfire dinner.
The next day, Bai Ye contacted Old Song and processed a passport for entry into Country R. What usually took at least seven days for others, Bai Ye obtained that very day.
At the same time, Bai Ye asked Old Song how to enable streaming permissions in Country R.
Hearing that Bai Ye was going to Country R, Old Song was overjoyed, and the high command of Great Xia was also secretly pleased.
Old Song replied, “Go there and mess around as you please. Don’t be as restrained as you are at home, and they’ll naturally grant you permission!”
Oh!
Bai Ye suddenly understood.
After receiving his passport that day, Bai Ye took Gou Dan, Little Tuantuan, and a large group of companions to the beach. He also called Lydia out for another bonfire dinner.
Lydia was greatly delighted, caught a few large whales, and everyone had a hearty feast.
“I’m going to Country R tomorrow. You all need to guard the house and the ranch well.”
Bai Ye decided to go alone this time, not bringing Gou Dan or Little Tuantuan. It would be inconvenient to bring them; they wouldn’t be helpful in catching sea monsters, and the food in Country R wasn’t good.
“Roar roar roar ing—— (╰།❛ڡ❛།╯ Master, don’t worry~ Lydia guarantees to complete the mission!)”
“Woof woof woof—— (Got it, Boss! Bring back more good food!)”
“Ying ying ying!!! (Boss, be careful!!!)”
