Xia Jin’s expression was very ugly. She glanced coldly at the man in front of her, and the aura around her was terrifyingly low.

When the man saw her murky expression, the corners of his mouth curled up into a smug and arrogant smile. He tugged at his tie slowly and turned his head to the store manager beside him, saying, “Fire her today. I’ll bring her documents back to the headquarters after they are processed.”

The store manager glanced at Xia Jin with some pity. After a long while, he sighed. “Alright…”

After all, this was a matter decided by the inspectors from the headquarters, and he might anger this group of people if he disobeyed them.

“She’s finally fired. It’s so annoying to look at her all day long…”

“She’s usually so cocky, but now she’s getting her comeuppance!”

“Hahaha, let’s go eat hotpot tonight as a celebration…”

…

The faint sound of discussion filled with snickering could be heard.

Xia Jin clenched her fists.

Her lips moved. Just as she was about to speak, a sound suddenly came from outside the door.

The crowd turned their heads in surprise and saw three police officers standing outside the door.

The store manager was instantly startled–why were the police here?

This was no small matter!

The store manager hurried forward to them. “May I know why…”

Xia Jin saw that the police officer in the lead looked familiar, she looked at the man for a few moments and suddenly uttered, “Xiao Zhao?”

Xiao Zhao looked up and saw Xia Jin. He immediately ignored the store manager and a warm smile appeared on his face. He walked to her and said, “Old Madam said that you work here. I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to find you here.”

Xiao Zhao’s attitude towards Xia Jin was very good, probably because of the old lady. There was a hint of respect in his enthusiasm.

“What is it?” Xia Jin’s eyes moved. Her afterglow glanced at the inspector, who was furrowing his brows, and said without batting an eyelid.

Xiao Zhao beckoned, and a police officer behind him walked forward and shook open a pennant in his hand.

On the pennant was written–”To Comrade Xia Jin: Promoting righteousness and heroism. Presented by the Second Brigade of Yongan District Police Station.”

Xiao Zhao smiled eagerly and continued, “The bastard you caught last time was actually a suspect in a robbery case that was still on the run. You’ve done a great service this time. At the end of the month, our district has a place for the selection of ‘Good People of the Capital’. The director has already sent out your name.”

In fact, ordinary people would not have a chance to win this kind of award, but the director of Xiao Zhao’s police station sent out Xia Jin’s name in order to do the old lady a favor.

If it was in the past, Xia Jin might not have cared about this kind of honorary selection, but now, her reputation was so bad that it couldn’t be any worse. For the police station to give her a selection quota for ‘Good People of the Capital’ at this time, it was like giving her a hand when she needed it most.

When Xiao Zhao said this, not only the store manager, but also the inspectors’ faces changed.

If Xia Jin was selected as a ‘Good People of the Capital’, then they definitely could not fire her!

The fact that the police had given Xia Jin a pennant was proof that she was a brave citizen who had done something for the people. If they still dared to fire Xia Jin, it would be equivalent to targeting the people’s hero, and they would not have the slightest advantage with the public opinion when the time came.

Since the inspectors could think of this, Xia Jin naturally understood the same reason. She turned around, slowly glanced at the inspector, and said with a half-smile, “Excuse me, do you still want to fire me?”

When the inspectors were swept by Xia Jin’s gaze, their faces flushed red, and they appeared to be in a sorry state.

Fire? Hearing Xia Jin’s words, Xiao Zhao, was stunned.

“Why do they want to fire you?” Xiao Zhao did not expect that Xia Jin was actually being put in a difficult position right now. No wonder when he first entered, those people were looking at Xia Jin in a way that was not quite right.

Xia Jin sneered. “Who knows? They insisted that my character was bad.”

Although Xiao Zhao did not know what exactly was happening to Xia Jin, he was naturally biased towards the person that the old lady took special care of. At this moment, he glared at the inspectors solemnly.

“What’s the matter with you guys? She was the one who has arrested a criminal suspect bravely, yet you people say that her character is not good? What about you? What have you contributed to the people?”

The inspector who had been looking down on Xia Jin just a moment ago did not dare to speak. His jaw was tense, and he felt stifled to the extreme.

After being reprimanded by Xiao Zhao in public, his prestige was instantly destroyed.

However, he did not dare to go against the police. He could only grit his teeth and reply, “We made a mistake.”

Xia Jin pursed her lips and snorted coldly. She no longer looked at the crowd and turned to follow Xiao Zhao out of the store.

Xiao Zhao handed the pennant to Xia Jin, who accepted it with a smile. “Thank you very much for today. I’ll treat you to a meal some other day.”

As a police officer, Xiao Zhao had a certain “network” of sorts, and it was not a bad thing to befriend him.

Xiao Zhao scratched his head in embarrassment. “It’s okay. If you want to thank someone, thank the Old Madam.”

Xia Jin was well aware of this and thought about how to find an opportunity to thank the old lady..
