Chapter 54: Return to the Police Station

Qin Yue was already used to Ye Qian’s smooth-talking. She continued, “Since you’re Ya’er’s bodyguard, then you can easily be mine as well. I’ll hire you.”

“Really? You’re not kidding?” Ye Qian asked.

“Of course not,” Qin Yue said, “ Do I look like I’m joking?”

“That’s what I want, but I can’t split myself up. There’s no problem at school but what about after cla.s.s? I can’t protect the both of you,” Ye Qiansaid.

Qin Yue smiled mysteriously and said, “Well the truth is I’m secretly very good friends with Ya’er. We currently live in the same villa. So how about it? Can you be my bodyguard now?”

All of these things were beyond Ye Qian’s expectations. Stunned, he askedQin Yue, “For real?”

“This isn’t a shameful thing, why would I lie to you,” Qin Yue said indifferently.

“Hehe, if this is true, then I’ll consider it. But, that… hehe, you understand.”Ye Qian said while rubbing his fingers together, the gesture representing money.

Qin Yue looked at Ye Qian helplessly and said, “Money? Don’t worry, I won’t shortchange you.”

Ye Qian grinned and said hypocritically, “We’re friends, so a little is fine, twenty or thirty thousand a month is fine.”

“You’re a lion with a big mouth after all,” Qin Yue said. “The price of a bodyguard is only about five thousand a month.”

“How can you say that. You can’t compare me to other bodyguards. I’m the elite of the elites,” said Ye Qian complacently.

Qin Yue did not care about the money. Besides, she could tell that Ye Qianwas only teasing her. She guessed that even if she didn’t pay him anything this xiaozi wouldn’t care. “Oh right. At the moment you’re a suspect in a murder investigation, but you don’t look worried at all. Aren’t you even a little bit afraid?” Qin Yue said, changing the topic.

“The upright body won’t cast a slanted shadow. I didn’t do it so I’m not afraid,” said Ye Qian indifferently.

“Since you didn’t do it, that leaves only two possibilities. The first is that the police made a mistake, but the chances of this is quite small. The second possibility is that someone is framing you. It looks like your background isn’t small,” Qin Yue said.

Ye Qian shrugged helplessly and said, “I just got back, how could I know who I provoked? I think it must be that the police made a mistake.”

Qin Yue smiled indifferently and said, “You don’t have to pretend in front of me. Tell me honestly, what are you really thinking?”
