The Brilliant Life of a Post-Apocalyptic Female Boss Reborn at 70

Feng Yi then realized that Meng Tang was currently unconscious and it was unknown how long it would take for him to regain consciousness.

Feng Yi looked at Xin Yi seriously and asked her, "Are you really sure you want to stay here with me and guard this place? There might be danger here."

Xin Yi nodded firmly and said, "Yes, I want to be with you, no matter what happens."

Feng Yi sensed Xin Yi's determination, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

At that moment, he felt that Xin Yi genuinely cared about his safety and was willing to face difficulties with him.

Feng Yi smiled and said, "Alright, then we'll stay here together. But if we encounter any danger, you must follow my instructions and protect yourselves."

Xin Yi nodded, indicating that she understood.

The two sat quietly in the rest room, waiting for Meng Tang to wake up, while also remaining vigilant for any potential dangers.

After an unknown amount of time, Feng Yi and Xin Yi opened their eyes almost simultaneously. After exchanging a glance, they did not speak, but instead stood up quietly and walked towards the door together.

Feng Yi took a pistol out of his pocket and handed it to Xin Yi. Xin Yi took the pistol, examined it carefully, and then pushed it back to Feng Yi. She then quickly took a pistol out of her own pocket and brandished it at Feng Yi a few times.

Feng Yi immediately recognized that the pistol was a standard-issue weapon used by enemy agents, but he did not ask any further questions, as this was not the time to delve into the matter.

Even if Xin Yi really is an enemy agent, since she hasn't made a move yet, she shouldn't expose herself now.

Feng Yi gently pushed open the door and walked towards the room where enemy agents were being held.

However, when he got closer, he was surprised to find that the tightly closed iron gate was actually open.

He quickened his pace, walked to the door, and carefully examined the lock. He found that the lock had not been damaged, and it was clear that someone had used a key to open the door.

But the key was clearly on him! Feng Yi frowned slightly and began to think. Soon, he understood the reason and quickly walked into the detention room.

Feng Yi checked each room one by one, and as he expected, Poison Scorpion's room was empty.

Xin Yi followed closely behind, carefully observing the enemy agents in each room. They were all lifeless, clearly having been silenced.

"Feng Yi, all these people are dead!" Xin Yi said with a solemn expression.

“This is to be expected. After all, Poison Scorpion has a special identity, and if she is captured, she will be a huge threat to them. I just don’t know where Poison Scorpion will be taken? And who is the person who rescued her?” Feng Yi frowned and fell into deep thought.

Seeing Feng Yi deep in thought, Xin Yi said, "I roughly know where she might be. Come on, I'll take you there!"

The two quickly got into the car. Although Feng Yi had a general idea in mind, he was still not quite sure.

"Yiyi, where are we going now?" Feng Yi asked as he drove.

"Do you know the Ning family?" Xin Yi replied calmly.

"Ning Zheng?" Feng Yi asked with a puzzled look.

“It’s Director Ning!” Xin Yi explained.

“Oh, I know,” Feng Yi replied.

Why would she suspect Ning Zheng? Did the enemy intelligence organization know that Poison Scorpion had been exposed, decide to abandon her, and send Xin Yi to silence her?

Throughout the journey, Feng Yi was deep in thought, pondering the key points. Seeing his furrowed brows, Xin Yi remained silent.

They finally arrived. After parking the car, Feng Yi turned to Xin Yi in the passenger seat and said softly, "Ning Zheng's house is just ahead. Shall we get out?"

Xin Yi had fallen asleep sometime earlier. Hearing Feng Yi's words, she slowly opened her eyes, stretched, and lazily replied, "Okay, let's go then, let's hurry!"

After saying that, Xin Yi instantly perked up and quickly jumped out of the car.

Feng Yi led Xin Yi straight to Ning Zheng's door and gently knocked.

"Director Ning, are you home?"

However, after waiting for a while, there was still no movement inside. Feng Yi frowned and knocked on the door again.

Seeing that no one responded, Xin Yi became impatient. She kicked the door open forcefully, muttering, "At a time like this, what's with all the talk of martial ethics? Come in!"

As soon as the two entered the door, they saw Ning Zheng, who was late. He was wearing pajamas, looking sleepy, and had a hint of anger on his face.

Ning Zheng also saw the two men, and his anger intensified. He frowned and angrily questioned, "Commander Feng, what do you mean by this! Breaking into my house in the middle of the night is a serious violation of discipline!"

Feng Yi knew he was in the wrong, but he remained calm and replied apologetically, "Director Ning, I'm so sorry. We knocked on the door, but no one answered. We were worried that you might be in danger, so we had no choice but to break in. If you are alright, then we were too reckless. Please forgive us!"

Hearing this, Ning Zheng's expression softened slightly, but he was still somewhat dissatisfied. "Then you'd better fix this door!"

Feng Yi nodded quickly in agreement, "Of course, I'll fix it for you tomorrow!"

Ning Zheng walked over to a chair and sat down, then gestured for them to sit down as well. "Alright, let's get started. You must have something important to tell me so late at night!"

Feng Yi pulled Xin Yi down to sit and recounted the entire incident in detail, including Xin Yi's kidnapping, the capture of the enemy agent, the agent's elimination, and the rescue of Poison Scorpion.

Finally, he looked at Ning Zheng solemnly and asked, "Director Ning, can you order everyone in the county public security bureau to go out and search?"

Ning Zheng picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. "You know the methods of these enemy agents. After so much time, they might have already escaped from the county. Even if they haven't escaped, with their disguises, who could know the true identity of Poison Scorpion?"

Although Feng Yi agreed with Ning Zheng's statement, he still felt that something was not right. "Director Ning, we can't just do nothing, can we? We finally caught the Scorpion, are we just going to give up like this?"

At this moment, Xin Yi said jokingly, "Who says no one can tell? I can tell!"

"You?" Ning Zheng looked at Xin Yi with disdain and mocked, "You're just a female educated youth sent to the countryside. You just happened to catch a few enemy agents. Do you think you're so great?"

Xin Yi stood up without fear and said firmly, "I don't know if it's just a coincidence, but I am indeed very capable!"

"Hahahaha..." Ning Zheng suddenly burst into laughter, then turned to look at Feng Yi and said provocatively, "Commander Feng, do you know how amazing your partner is?"

After a moment of silence, Feng Yi looked deeply at Ning Zheng and slowly said, "Director Ning, Yi Yi is indeed very capable. Tonight's enemy agent was captured entirely by Xin Yi alone!"

"Really? Why do I feel that's not the case? I'm more inclined to believe that there was infighting within the enemy's ranks, which ultimately allowed her to get this advantage!"
