36 Girlfriend Or Not? (1/2)

That form of address was too intimate to be called by an outsider.

Xiang Wan was a little curious about the identity of the woman. She squinted her eyes slightly to try to take a good look at her.

However, she was back facing the lights. Besides having a feeling that the woman was proud as a peacock, and had an extraordinary and elegant disposition, she could see nothing else.

”Going home,” Bai Muchuan answered in a nonchalant voice.

”Oh?” The woman's voice was crisp, the tone sounding higher toward the end. There was somehow a feeling of deliberation in her tone that made Xiang Wan slightly uncomfortable. ”Then shall I go back together with you now, or shall we find a place for a talk?”

Go back together?!

This woman… could she be Bai Muchuan's…

Xiang Wan was making wild guesses about the woman in her head.

”It's already so late, we'll go back to your place,” the woman continued, ”by the way, the young lady in your car is also going there as well, right?”

Xiang Wan was surprised.

She felt shy and embarrassed.

It's Detective Bai's domestic affairs, what has it got to do with me?

”That, no… I'm not going, I can get down here.”

Their relationship was not something that could be explained in a few words. In addition, she didn't even know who this other person was.

As Xiang Wan said that, she turned to look at Bai Muchuan for his opinion.

However, this young master was the exact opposite. His face was not red, his heart did not skip a beat, and he accepted the ambiguous hint with an expressionless face.

”Okay.”

So it's okay to go to his place, or it's okay for her to get down?

Xiang Wan felt her scalp tighten at that instant. ”Detective Bai—”

Screech!

The engine started, their car made a turn out of the Criminal Investigation Unit, but Bai Muchuan did not attempt to explain anything.

Xiang Wan looked behind and found that the woman's car was following them.

Tch! What's going on?

She tilted her head. ”Detective Bai, am I being made use of by you?”

Bai Muchuan pursed his lips. ”What do you mean?”

Xiang Wan stared at his sexy-looking side profile and her heart skipped a beat. ”That woman seems to spell trouble for you? Is it a love debt or a money debt? I feel like she has a grudge against me? I feel somewhat wronged. This feels like 'I didn't get to eat any fish yet I've gotten myself a fishy smell'!”

Bai Muchuan did not utter a word.

When the car passed by a distance of more than ten meters, he suddenly turned to look at Xiang Wan, staring at her with his deep, dark eyes.

”Do you want to eat fish?”

”…”

There was silence.

There was a weird feeling of romantic ambiguity in the air inside the car.

The feelings of modern people would come fast, and the ambiguity between two person would come even faster.

A gaze, an action, or a smile could appear to be suggestive in another party's eyes.

Moreover, this was such a blatant hint?

Xiang Wan's heart was pounding fiercely. She felt like a wild cat was inside her heart that got provoked, was scratching her intermittently that her spine felt stiff and her throat, tight.

”There's a lot of fish inside the small pond in my backyard,” said Bai Muchuan. ”I'll get Nanny Li to cook for you.”

”… Cough, cough, cough!” The words that Xiang Wan was about to say got swallowed in a choke, which nearly suffocated her.

This man must be out to prank me? thought Xiang Wan.

It's clear he's flirting with me, but suddenly in the next moment, he solemnly denies it?

Xiang Wan used a second to smoothen her hair.

Then, she used another three seconds to give a synthetic proposition 1 with regards to her own beauty.

Next, she stared at the man who was seriously driving.

”Bai Muchuan, what do you mean? I don't understand at all?”

This was the first time that she addressed his full name.

Sure enough, such an unusual form of address attracted the attention of Detective Bai.

His hands which were holding the steering wheel tightened. After thinking for a while, he said, ”That's my elder sister.”

”…”

Could it be that those who possessed a ”detective” brain have such a bizarre logic? Xiang Wan was perplexed.

The previous sentence, the last sentence, and the middle sentence… didn't the analogy seem rather far-fetched?

…

Previous sentence: ”Do you want to eat fish?”

Last sentence: ”That's my elder sister.”

Middle sentence: ”There's a lot of fish inside the small pond in my backyard,” and ”I'll get Nanny Li to cook for you.”

…

This felt like ”playing a lute to a cow” which meant talking to a brick wall!

Forget it. Xiang Wan gave up.

”That's your business, it has nothing to do with me. However, since your sister is here, it's even more inconvenient for me to stay overnight at your house. Just put me down by the roadside.”

”My house has a lot of beds,” said Bai Muchuan casually, ”moreover, I've been very busy recently.”

”?” What has this got to do about him being busy?
